章 2081: ‘Capabilities’

Zhu Chengqi had neither a son nor a daughter to inherit his assets, after all.

Since he had no chance of ever passing anything down to his children, he would have to hand them over to an outsider. That would depend entirely on Zhu Chengqi's mood.

Although Zhai Sheng and Qiao Nan wanted to meet Zhu Chengqi purely out of concern for him, others had spun tall tales regarding this matter.

Thinking back to what Miao Jing had said earlier, Zhu Chengqi and Qiao Nan immediately realized what Miao Jing was worried and upset about. Those people thought that the Zhai couple was trying to suck up to Zhu Chengqi so that they would stand to gain from Zhu Chengqi's death.

It did indeed sound awful. It was wrong no matter who did it. The problem was that neither Zhai Sheng nor Qiao Nan had ever intended to do so and yet, that was how other people were viewing them. How unjustified it was for them!
