The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex - Chapter 1423
Chapter 1423: The Jiang Family Line Will Not Die Out
Jiang Cheng nodded. His girlfriend didn’t actually drop any hints but he nodded in order to get his parents’ support.
Wang Min felt a lot better after she saw her son’s reassuring nod.
She thought for a moment before she added, “If I’m not wrong, Xi Xi’s brother is only seven or eight years old. He is just in elementary school and is still very young.”
Jiang Cheng chuckled softly and said, “Yes, Mo Mo is only eight years old while Xi Xi’s father is already 53 years old. I doubt he’d be able to manage the Ye group for 20 years.”
Wang Min and Jiang Zhendong’s eyes lit up at his words and they suddenly felt extremely pleased. This was especially true for Wang Min and a smile danced on her lips at that thought.
She turned around and gave her husband a pat on the shoulder.
“Zhentao, if that is the case, I think we should let Ah Cheng have a shot at this. This might indeed be Ye Hao’s plan and I don’t think Xi Xi has the ability to manage a big corporation in the future either. If Ah Cheng marries Xi Xi, this would mean that the Ye Group would belong to Ah Cheng!” she said confidently.
She had been extremely angry earlier and swore to herself that she would never allow her son to be a live-in son-in-law but she changed her mind in a matter of minutes.
Jiang Zhentao frowned and dug out a packet of cigarettes from his pocket. He lit a cigarette and blew out a puff of smoke.
He seemed to be mulling over this and didn’t respond for a while.
Jiang Cheng looked at his father and said, “Don’t worry, dad. I will never let the Jiang family line die out.”
Jiang Cheng knew what his parents were worried about and also knew that they didn’t want their family line to die out.
Jiang Zhentao scoffed and said, “If you become a live-in son-in-law, then Ye Zixi’s child will not be recognized as a Jiang.”
Jiang Cheng said, “Does it matter? Dad, I’ve given this some thought and decided that we’ll just need to have a few more children. Then, I’ll get the subsequent children to take my last name.”
It didn’t matter whether his child took his last name and he thought that it was a trivial matter.
Wang Min tugged at her husband’s arm and shot him a look.
“Zhentao, I think our son is right. We’ll never be able to match up to the Ye family even after several generations. If the Ye Group ends up in Xi Xi’s hands, it would be the same as it being in Ah Cheng’s hands,” she said.
She felt extremely excited at the thought of her son having a personal fortune of several billion US dollars.
Jiang Zhentao didn’t respond but he looked much better than he had before.
Jiang Cheng walked up to his father and gave him a pat on the shoulder.
“Dad, don’t get angry. Let me handle it,” he said.
Jiang Zhentao finally nodded.
He didn’t see any need to object to his son’s decision after weighing the pros and cons of this matter.
Their mood lifted and they could start joking amongst themselves now that they were on the same page.
Wang Min said, “Ah Cheng, you should be careful over at the Ye castle and try to rein in your resentment. It is imperative that you win Ye Hao’s acknowledgment of your abilities and the favor of Xi Xi’s mother He Xiyan. I heard that he’s terrified of his wife, so as long as He Xiyan likes you, it is only a matter of time before Ye Hao accepts you as well. You should also shower your attention on Xi Xi. Don’t infuriate her and try to keep her happy. Then, everything will be okay.”
Wang Min smiled after she prepped her son.
Jiang Zhentao added, “You should be more careful and cautious. Don’t let Ye Hao figure out your true motives.”
The Jiangs helped their son formulate a plan.
