Capítulo 1579: Chapter 1580: The Girl with Three Failures 87
Mike hung up the phone and saw Zhang Yu right in front of him, “Old Master Jiang just passed away in the hospital.”
He had just passed away, and Ye Zhuo received the news; the speed was quite fast.
“The boss is going to the hospital today,” Mike whispered.
Oh, Zhang Yu rembered a client wasn’t feeling well and was hospitalized. The client was also a big custor and had a good personal relationship with Ye Zhuo, so it was normal for the boss to visit and discuss so cooperation.
Calculating the ti it would take to rush to the hospital, “Jiang Lili might not even see the Old Master for the last ti.”
Was it that the Old Master fell ill quickly, or did soone suppress the news to prevent notification? That remains an unknown.
Hehe, with Old Master Jiang around, the People of the Jiang Family definitely suppressed things in various ways and wouldn’t let it get to him, but now that he’s passed away, the public opinion online about the Jiang Family’s livelihood is already as bad as it can get, even if there were a commotion in public, there’s no need to care, “The Jiang Family is in chaos.”
Zhang Yu felt a bit of regret, not being at the hospital, otherwise he should have seen the Jiang Family causing a scene.
Mike nodded repeatedly beside him, “Old Master Jiang’s steward wasn’t around.”
“It was the father and sons of the main branch of the Jiang family present,” Mike whispered.
Oh, everyone knew Old Master Jiang in his later years didn’t live with his sons but lived alone, accompanied by his old steward who had been with him for many years.
Yet the steward wasn’t there, and it was the father and sons of the main branch present; Zhang Yu’s mouth ford a circle, “There’ll definitely be an interesting show to watch now.”
More annoyed, why wasn’t he on the scene? Such a rare spectacle would certainly not have been missed.
Returning to his desk, he heard his colleagues discussing the news of Old Master Jiang being hospitalized, “I just heard Mike ordering a wreath,” Zhang Yu said while sipping his tea.
When the boss isn’t around, it’s quite pleasant to steal so leisure ti and chat early in the morning.
Zhang Yu said this in a very nonchalant manner, as if discussing what to have for lunch today, yet everyone present was stunned.
They were discussing matters about Old Master Jiang, and Zhang Yu suddenly ntioned ordering a wreath. Zhao Kang quickly reacted, “It’s for Old Master Jiang.”
Everyone’s mouths ford circles, “It can’t be; wasn’t he just sent to the hospital, sent to the ICU, how could he have passed away?”
“Yeah.” Everyone didn’t doubt Zhang Yu and knew Mike wouldn’t order a wreath without reason.
“What did the boss do so early today?” Zhang Yu chuckled.
Indeed, “The boss went to the hospital to visit a patient.” Everyone now realized, “At the sa hospital.”
“No wonder Jiang Lili isn’t at work, just drove off.”
“But it’s rush hour, can she make it to the hospital in ti for the last farewell?” Everyone knows that even after a family division, Old Master Jiang still had considerable assets in hand.
Everyone knows, not just Jiang Lili, all the other Jiang Family mbers are hoping for a larger share of the inheritance.
“We just don’t know if there’s a will left.”
“Don’t the Wealthy Family mbers write their wills early on?” The poor don’t need one, but in wealthy families, this surely exists to avoid trouble.
Is there a will? In the past, Zhang Yu would have thought so too, as wealthy people have private lawyers and generally bring up this topic after thirty.
Not to ntion, Old Master Jiang was over 90, and the lawyer would surely remind him.
However, now Zhang Yu is curious whether such a will exists. Even if it does, it’s highly likely it would be resolved with the main branch of the Jiang family’s eldest son.
“Alright, let’s get to work.” Seeing Mike coming over, everyone dispersed, speculating on how Jiang Family’s assets would be distributed. They’re all outsiders just watching the fun, speculating on who will be the beneficiary of this grand battle.
But compared to their own work, there’s no comparison; it’s more important to focus on one’s work first.
Shortly, the news of Old Master Jiang’s passing appeared online, and just as everyone was discussing how grand Old Master Jiang’s funeral would be, they received news that the Jiang Family mbers were already causing a scene at the hospital.
The reason being, Old Master Jiang’s old steward wasn’t at ho, and the main branch family had driven him away for several days. In the days leading up to his death, it was the main branch family taking care of Old Master Jiang.
This was intolerable for the other branches of the Jiang Family, all believing that Old Master Jiang’s death must be related to the main branch.
According to the latest news, apart from the main branch, the other descendants are demanding an autopsy for Old Master Jiang.
Oh my god, I don’t know what the others think, but Zhang Yu says when she heard it, she was dumbfounded.
This wasn’t just tearing faces; it was directly declaring that the Jiang Family mbers believed the main branch family killed the Old Master.
“Wealthy Family feud, indeed.” The hot topic at the company during lunchti had beco all about these affairs of the Jiang Family, and everyone eating in the cafeteria was discussing it.
In short, one sentence sums it up: wealthy family feuds are always more intense than TV dramas. “Even TVB dramas don’t get as lively as this.”
Zhang Yu swallowed the food in her mouth, “Inspired by life, real life can be even more lodramatic.”
“Right, right, exactly, inspired by life.” Thinking carefully, there’s really no mistake.
While everyone was discussing the Jiang Family, Jiang Lili was still in disbelief. The last ti she spoke to her grandfather on the phone, he was in high spirits, saying he wanted to live to a hundred, to see her marry and have children, and even reminded her not to be willful. At that ti, she only thought the old man was annoying; now she regrets not chatting more with him, letting him relax and give her so money.
Now it’s too late; the old man is gone, and she doesn’t even know if there’s a will left, or even if there is, she doesn’t know how much would be left for her; there must be sothing left to her.
During the last family division, if it weren’t for her sake, how would her family have gotten so many assets, just a bit less than her uncle’s family.
They said nicely then that these things were for her and were just being held temporarily, and back then, she really thought it was like that. Who knew that after getting the assets, her parents would spend money lavishly and say she was extravagant, telling her to spend less.
Thinking about it makes Jiang Lili angry, frustrated that she didn’t think to transfer those assets to her na back then; that way, no one would co out and accuse her of being extravagant with money.
Jiang Lili was very angry. This ti, she didn’t play a main role in the chaos with the main branch family, which showed how much she’s grown over the past half year.
At least she realized that having a good brain is beneficial, and understood many people used her as a pawn, including family relatives, friends around her, and even her own parents.
The Jiang Family mbers had been arguing for quite a while, feeling sothing was off, yet unable to pinpoint what it was until they turned and saw Jiang Lili quietly watching over the altar, realizing what exactly was amiss.
“Lili, what’s wrong with you? Are you stunned?” Mr. Jiang was frustrated seeing Jiang Lili’s dazed manner; seriously, didn’t she see everyone was making a fuss, trying to get the main branch to explain why the old steward wasn’t there, and why they took care of the Old Master? Surely there was sothing fishy, sothing wrong.
Jiang Lili looked up at the clamoring crowd, “I just want to spend more ti with grandpa.” After all, in the whole world, only grandpa loved her the most.
Jiang Lili really regretted not spending more ti with grandpa back then, even if occasional company was just trying to get money from him. In hindsight, it was really immature.
