Chapter 627 - Linfeng makes a Move

Guan Xixn's breath turned heavy.

The feeling where no one believed in him, even his beloved eldest brother, hurt him way more than his injuries did!

"Brother! You don't understand! I am closer to Huan'er than all of you since we were young! I knew him the most! That. Person. Is. Not. Our. Brother! This accident and the other time where you broke your leg, those are all his doing!"

Guan Xixin's protruding veins were visible on his neck and temples.

He was making his stance clear on this.

Guan Gu Ri wanted to reprimand his second brother that he got it wrong, that the guilt he was feeling had eaten him.

But what could he do? This was also his precious brother.

And his precious brother was injured right now.

He must not irritate him further.

Guan Gu Ri closed his eyes. "Rest well. I will investigate deeply into it as well. If you really managed to get an evidence that he is not our brother, then... I will believe you . I'll personally handle him for doing this to you."

Guan Gu Ri turned to leave the room.

But he could not believe his second brother's suspicion. He would never belive it.

How could he believe that kind of nonsense, that the Guan Gao Huan he called 'brother' right now was a fake?

If he was a fake, then where have their little brother gone to?

How long have the others changed his brother into another one?

Why was there a fake?

What was the purpose?

Who were the people behind it?

These were all the questions that his second brother did not have an answer about.

All this... was very unrealistic and impossible.

There was just no way.

Guan Gu Ri massaged his forehead.

He should stop entertaining these dangerous thoughts that his second brother were spouting. Even though he also felt somehow distant from his third brother, it was wrong to be suspicious of him after they had previously abandoned him.

After the doctors took care of his wounds, Guan Xixin stood up. He was about to return to the meeting room.

He took a look at the two doctors who did not dare to breathe loudly.

Guan Xixin decided not to warn them about spreading what he and his brother talked about. If rumors spread, then maybe that would be good. Even if his name would be ruined in the process, at least, some people would suspect that bastard.

He would not go down without a fight.

They were only two skilled doctors who were in the room to take care of Guan Xixin.

After the patient left, the doctors went to their own ways.

One of the doctors went to his car and pulled out his phone. He started calling an unknown number.

The call went through.

"..."

"Intel, code G. Three is fake according to Two."

The doctor then ended the call and started the car.

The official start of the succession trial for the heir of the Guan Family became known in the circles of the upper society by the next day.

The candidates and their factions could gather external help to boost their resources, network, and reputation within the Guan Empire. They could also make deals with the shareholders to gather their votes.

Old Guan had declared that he would not interfere nor favor a specific heir candidate. However, his opinion and vote was the crucial factor for choosing the heir.

Thus, the old man said that he would only make a move according to the best interests of the empire. It meant that whoever performed best or displayed the greatest achievements within the two month period, that candidate would have Old Guan's vote on top of their faction's vote.

As Old Guan possessed the largest amount of shares, it was a given that his vote might as well be the deciding factor that would conclude which among the three Guan direct descendants would become the heir, unless another candidate possessed an overwhelming amount of votes.

Therefore, the three heir candidates must do their best to impress Old Guan while helping out the Guan Empire.

Guan Gu Ri's advantage was the existing and ongoing high return projects that he had chosen previously with other subsidiaries. His and the elders' goal was to raise the stock market price and exceed the benchmark profit of the Guan Empire within these two months. For this, they would go all out.

On the other hand, Guan Xixin's and his faction's goal was to secure the highly lucrative deals overseas which the Guan Empire had branded as difficult to attain success with due to their high risk nature. Within two months, they planned to dominate the overseas branches of the Guan Empire and increase the international market scope. This would be his weapon.

On the other hand, Guan Gao Huan had not given everyone any impressive achievement before. However, with the recent outstanding achievement he displayed with Univ One becoming the second-ranking top app in the ICT industry of the country and having considerable reputation in the region, this project was enough to be his weapon.

His goals were to dominate the country's mobile communications network, secure the top-ranking app in the domestic playstore, and expand Univ One. The more impressive Univ One was, the more massive the profits and value it would bring, and the more his fame would rise.

All of their targets were vastly different, but they were all very ambitious.

As the three heir candidates polished their own weapons to cultivate, the fight for the Guan succession officially began.

Eugine was waiting at one of the VVIP rooms in the airlines. This airline had a partnership with his company and so he had his own lounge. He previously received a message from their youngest brother that he would borrow his private hangar and land here.

This was a surprise for Eugine as he had initially thought that the youngest was so preoccupied with ZD World and other business matters in Country C that he would not be able to see the others in the brotherhood any time soon.

The cooperation they had with the youngest had benefitted all of them greatly and also expanded their markets and profits, so they had no complaints at all.

It had been quite a while since Eugine last saw the youngest personally, so he set aside some of his time to welcome the youngest here.

"Sir Eugine, the guest has arrived."

"Oh, you're finally here!" Eugine stood up and smiled warmly at the person who had just arrived. "Linfeng, you really surprised me by coming here so suddenly!"

Linfeng opened his arms and met Eugine's friendly hug. His face softened. "Brother, thank you for letting me borrow your private lane. I am in your debt."

"That's fine. The guys also wanted to come here but they are all busy. Why did you come here anyway? "

Linfeng had no qualms telling Eugine his purpose of visit.

Linfeng's smile warmed even more, but his eyes cooled. "I went here, because I found something interesting. Before I got the chance to meet that person, he flew away."

Eugine blankly looked at Linfeng. "What are you being mysterious about?"

The man just smiled.

Everyone have their own secrets. Eugine did not push on it and asked about another matter instead. "How long will you be staying here? I thought that this is the busiest time for you since ZD World is still making waves. Do you need some help?"

ZD World was SC's creation, but this was also backed by the six kings. They have considerable shares in the entire ZD Comprehension Project, which would later on expand to lines of mobile devices, home system, and other peripheral projects included in the comprehensive plan. As a businessman and as a friend, Eugine was naturally very concerned about ZD World.

"The expansion is a great success as you've likely heard in the project reports. The upgrade was also done smoothly."

"You are done with the upgrade? Then why haven't you released it yet?"

Linfeng's lips rose. His dark peach blossom eyes curved, containing mischief. "Because of a certain factor, I realized that it is not yet the time. It's always good to keep good cards ready anytime."

Eugine: "Eh? But you are rushing ZD World's progress before. How come you're saying now that it's not the right time?"

Linfeng looked at the elder brother. "Trust me. You'll see the front page of every media marked with ZD World again soon."

Eugine chuckled at Linfeng's confidence. "Alright, I trust you. It's your creation anyways. You know it better than we do."

Linfeng smiled. "Brother Eugine is being modest. Anyway, I heard that you are meeting with a Guan tomorrow?"

Eugine was stunned, but he still answered. "Ah, yes, I do have an appointment with one. The Guan Empire is rather persistent. They have reached out multiple times even though I rejected them every time." He looked at Linfeng, a bit impressed. "But this information is kept under tight wraps, since the Guan Empire is hiding the fact that they have been rejected by us many times. How come you got wind of it?"

Linfeng smiled. "You don't need to be surprised. I am your brother, so I should be capable enough to get that much info."

Eugine laughed and waved it off. "Alright, alright, stop showing off already. I won't ask you if you don't want to tell me. But since you mentioned that, it must be related to why you came here, correct?"

The two tall men in casual suits were walking towards the car.

Their strong aura of confidence and handsome appearances caught the eyes of the surrounding staff and people, but the bodyguards around them also made the bystanders take only a glance before hurrying away in fear.

Hearing Eugine's inquiry, Linfeng did not deny it. "You're quick. Yes, actually, I have a deal to make with you."

Eugine raised his brow. Their youngest was really straightforward. They have not even eaten a meal yet!

"Alright, let's talk about it while having lunch."
