Chapter 3: The Occurrence of Tragedy

The four major families that have been inherited from ancient times to the present day are Dongbai, Xijian, Nanwen and Beike, after 500 years, 14 generations of descendants are all businessmen.

Among the four major families, only the West Jane family is engaged in business and medicine, and the world's most famous W Medical Research Institute is affiliated to the West Jane family, and the West Jane family has immigrated to the UK to settle down as early as the 70s of the last century, and the intersection with the South Wen clan is becoming less and less.

On the contrary, Dong Pak and Nan Wen have frequent contacts and deep friendships, and since the financial crisis, Nan Wen's business has relied on the help of Dong Pak to get through various difficulties.

Although the marriage contract has been re-signed, it still has a slight impact on the relationship between the two families.

As soon as the matter came to an end, there was a very serious conflict of interest between Bei Ke and Dong Bai in the commercial field, Nan Wen was eager to side with Dong Bai, and Bei Ke turned to Xi Jane in the United Kingdom for help, which triggered a terrible business war with a butterfly effect.

As a result of this business war, many subsidiaries of the same clan were implicated, and various crises led to bankruptcy and debts, and some family members and friends who were overwhelmed chose to end their lives.

During this year, Erfan witnessed relatives and friends who used to eat and play together jump off buildings, self-immolate, and cut their wrists, including her favorite third uncle and aunt.

That day, Erfan and Erma went out to see the concert together, and before leaving, the third uncle and mother also told the two of them to come back early to eat rice balls.

After watching the concert, before they walked to the house, they saw smoke rising from the northeast of the mansion, and the two hurriedly ran into the house, watching the whole clan anxiously extinguish the fire, Erfan and Erma were stunned that it was the attic of the third uncle, Erma shouted "Mom" and wanted to rush into the fire, but was stopped by the fire brigade that happened to arrive.

Compared to Erma's hysteria, Erfan seemed to have lost her soul, her brain was blank, she couldn't hear any sound, her eyes were fixed on the fire, and her whole body stood stiff and motionless.

At the funeral that followed, Erma cried so much that Erfan remained in the same state as he was on the day he saw the fire, like a wooden man.

Erma took Erfan's hand and cried and said, "I will be an orphan in the future, I will have no father and mother......"

Erfan turned her head stiffly, looked at Erma with a dull gaze, and suddenly a tear slipped quietly, and the grief suppressed in her heart finally crawled up to her face, the pain crumpled her facial features together, and the tears were still raging, she sat on the ground and cried so much that she couldn't stand up, her mind was full of the gentle smiling face of the third uncle, how beautiful the memory was, how painful she was at this time......

The third uncle and the uncle's family subsidiary went bankrupt and had debts of more than 10 million, and the third uncle drank a lot of alcohol and set fire to the Yongfang Pavilion where he lived, and the uncle who was cooking rice balls in the kitchen wanted to run, but was hugged tightly by the uncle and failed to escape from the fire, and the two were burned alive on the spot.

It was also at this time that her father Wen Liang stole the money from the family group and left Erfan and went abroad alone.

She and Erma became real orphans in the family......

In half a year, she participated in ten funerals, what kind of battlefield is this, why can so many people voluntarily give up the courage to live, she is tired of crying, but the tears can't stop, there is a serious gap in the entire family's funds, grandpa suddenly regretted the original decision, if this year's battle has not taken a turn, then this mansion may not be saved.

Erfan looked at this dilapidated family, her grandfather who only had interests and face in her eyes, she suddenly had the idea of pulling her grandfather off the position of patriarch, Erfan thought of a person, Wen Shuyu, the son of the younger brother who was driven out of the family by his grandfather.

Wen Shuyu's father died in Canada three years ago, before he died, he always wanted to go back to the old house to worship his ancestors, but was rejected by the patriarch, after his death, Wen Shuyu wanted to send his father's rank to the ancestral hall of the South Wen family, but was also rejected by his grandfather, so Wen Shuyu also had a big quarrel with his grandfather, and there was no longer any contact.

The enemy of the enemy is a comrade-in-arms, Erfan looked at his grandfather who was anxious in the lobby, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
