successor

In his mind, the alluring image of the woman's unusual and seductive posture from last night surfaced, and seeing that half of the bottle of oddly scented shower gel had been used, everything became clear. Downstairs, the housekeeper had already set the table with a sumptuous breakfast. "Young Master, should I wake Miss Tang up for breakfast?" the housekeeper asked. "No need," replied Cen Jishen. "She is not allowed to leave the house. After she wakes up, she can only move around within the villa." "Yes, Young Master," the housekeeper replied obediently. Cen Jishen finished his breakfast elegantly and quietly, then grabbed his car keys and drove off in his handcrafted Bentley from the garage, leaving the villa behind. The handsome man drove under the rising sun, brimming with vitality and vigor. His phone rang, and it was Tang Ligui's number. After pretending that Tang MiMi was Tang Xin Qing and eagerly sending her to Cen Jishen's side, the Tang couple were anxious wrecks. Their excitement at the prospect of their great fortune made them even more cautious, fearing that any misstep could ruin their plans. The night Tang MiMi was sent over, the couple hadn't slept a wink. The next morning, unable to bear it any longer, they came to inquire about Cen Jishen's mood. When Cen Jishen, wearing earphones, received Tang Ligui's call, Tang Ligui cautiously inquired, "Mr. Cen, did I disturb you?" "Yes," replied Cen Jishen, his voice devoid of any emotion. "It's nothing. I'm just worried that Xin Qing is too young and a bit willful. Did she upset you yesterday?" Tang Ligui's tone was deferential, devoid of any trace of a future father-in-law. "No," replied Cen Jishen, still indifferent, but in his mind flashed the scene of him pulling her out of the pool the first time he saw her. She was wearing a beer promotion uniform, and although the Tang family was wealthy, why would their only daughter work in a nightclub promoting alcohol? "Haha, that's good to hear. Mr. Cen's father wants to form a relationship with my family. He said the Cen family has two eligible grandsons, so without hesitation, I chose you. Mr. Cen, there is no doubt that you will definitely take over as head of the Cen family in the future." Feeling that he might have said too much and buttered up excessively, Tang Ligui awkwardly trailed off. Ever since Cen He Yan, the current head of the Cen family, developed the Cen Corporation into a real estate benchmark in the commercial capital of City S, with rapid and vigorous growth, the group has also expanded into other investment projects. Cen He Yan has three sons, each of whom has fathered a grandson for him. The eldest son is already married; Cen Jishen, the son of the second wife, is addressed as the second young master. As for the youngest son from the third wife, he remains unmarried and carefree, disappearing frequently without a trace. After contacting the descendants of the Tang family, Cen He Yan expressed his desire to marry his second or third grandson to the Tang family's daughter. Now, in his old age, Cen He Yan temporarily handed over the Cen Corporation to his eldest son to manage. With a long-term vision, he hopes to cultivate a successor to the Cen family from among his grandchildren during his lifetime. And one of the criteria for evaluating his grandchildren is who among them can be the first to produce a great-grandchild for the Cen family. No matter how times change, wealthy families still attach great importance to their family lineages. On the phone, seeing Cen Jishen's cold demeanor, Tang Ligui was also tactful. As long as Tang MiMi didn't make any mistakes, it was fine. "Mr. Cen, sorry to disturb you. When you and Xin Qing have time, come over to our house. Her mother is from Suzhou and is good at cooking. She makes excellent sweet and sour squirrel fish and red-cooked pork." The corner of Cen Jishen's mouth twitched slightly. Tang Ligui had again shown his stance and even figured out his culinary preferences. Putting in so much effort, it was clear that Tang Ligui was eager to secure his own benefits, going beyond merely caring about his daughter's future happiness.
