Chapter 286: Are You Sure You Won’t Regret It?
Su Ruohua’s heart skipped a beat.
That day, when Su Huiqing told her about the connections she had in her hands, she felt that Su Huiqing would definitely not let him off easily even though she usually looked very obedient.
However, Su Ruohua knew very well that back in Green City, those big and small explosion cases definitely had something to do with her daughter.
At that time, she was worried about Su Lun’s problem. She didn’t pay much attention to Su Huiqing, but she also knew about it.
Her deepest impression was that she attended the graduation ceremony with Su Huiqing when she graduated.
Su Ruohua would never forget that day when the son of the commander of Green City’s First Military Region moved chairs for Su Huiqing, poured water for her, and poured tea for her.
He was more hardworking than anyone else. He was not the only one who looked like a hooligan. When those gangsters saw Su Huiqing, they even stopped and respectfully called her Queen.
It was fine if she didn’t pay attention to these memories, but now that she thought about it, Su Ruohua realized that Su Huiqing had already given her a lot of things.
Dugu Xing looked at Su Ruohua, who was deep in thought, and then at Su Huiqing, who was smiling brightly at her.
There was a tinge of depression in her eyes. How could she not be crippled? Why did that Liu Family go back on their words?!
She was letting her imagination run wild.
The meeting in the main hall continued.
Dugu Heng looked at everyone and said what he had planned from the start. “Today, besides Qingqing going to the training grounds, I have another matter to announce. From today onwards, I will groom Qingqing as the successor of the Dugu Family.”
Her words were like throwing a bomb in the crowd.
Su Huiqing was drinking a cup of water when she heard this. She almost spat out a mouthful of water!
However, she was not worried.
She supported her chin with her slender fingers and looked lazily at Dugu Heng. She didn’t know why Dugu Heng would make such a decision, but she knew something else.
There was no need for her to reject him. Some people in the hall were helping her to reject him.
The Liu Family members were still kneeling at the side. Heavens, the Dugu Family Head actually had such thoughts. He couldn’t help but wipe the cold sweat off his forehead.
Luckily, he had listened to his son’s advice and didn’t dare to slander Missy Dugu!
“Master, think twice!” The group of elders stood up.
They had no objections to Dugu Heng’s words, but when it came to this, they had no choice but to step forward and give Su Huiqing all the resources.
However, the position of the family head was not a small matter.
Not to mention that Su Huiqing had been in Green City for nearly 20 years, how much did she know about the Dugu Family’s business? Moreover, how many connections did she have in the International a.s.sociation?
If he was careless, the Dugu Family might fall into a difficult situation.
The fifth elder had always been the most composed of the elders. From the start when Dugu Heng asked Su Huiqing to meet the Dugu Family, he didn’t say a word. He knew that the Dugu Family was mostly because of Dugu Heng.
This was the first time he stood out because he knew how influential the family head was to a family.
The Dugu Family had become one of the top three in the International a.s.sociation because of Dugu Heng.
It was true that Dugu Heng was formidable, but Su Huiqing was different. Not to mention managing a family—if she was thrown into the International Battlefield, her legs would probably go limp.
This was definitely not a good thing for a family.
The fifth elder spoke very sincerely. The other elders also started to speak one by one. Although they didn’t openly belittle Su Huiqing, everyone looked down on her status.
At this moment, Dugu Xing also stood up and clenched her fists. “Master, I have always respected you, but you have disappointed me too much. Forget about the training grounds.
“Now that you want Su Huiqing to take over as the next family head, it’s too unfair for you to do this. If you insist on acting alone, I will withdraw from the Dugu Family.”
Dugu Xing’s words were too coincidental. The elders and others didn’t object.
Only the first elder stood beside Dugu Heng, slightly frowning. But looking at the fifth elder who had already knelt down, he remained silent.
Dugu Heng didn’t care about Dugu Xing’s words. He just looked at the elders and the Dugu Family deacons.
He didn’t make this decision on a whim. It was usually for Su Huiqing, but the other half was also for the Dugu Family. “Are you sure you won’t regret it?”
Dugu Heng glanced at Su Huiqing. Seeing that Su Huiqing was smiling at him, he actually didn’t want to talk to her anymore.
He had met Su Huiqing at the hospital previously. She had a good relationship with Dugu Yusheng and the rest. It was obvious that her ident.i.ty was not as simple as he seemed. He did not know why Su Huiqing kept it a secret.
However, if she revealed the group of people standing behind her, these elders would definitely not have this att.i.tude.
Also, he didn’t mention that the Su Family was able to enter the International a.s.sociation, not because of the acc.u.mulation of generations, but because Su Huiqing suddenly rose in just a year.
Dugu Heng knew this, but he didn’t tell Elder Chao that he was asking them to make a choice.
“Regret?” The elders were confused. Su Huiqing was obviously not fit to be the head of the Dugu Family. What was there to regret?
Since they weren’t willing, Dugu Heng didn’t force them. “Alright, let’s end this matter.”
Hearing Dugu Heng’s words, the elders heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that the family head didn’t insist.
They didn’t know what kind of opportunity they had rejected.
