The next day, the old lady's mourning hall was set up in the Sue family's villa. Many people who heard about it rushed to the villa one after another to see the old lady off.After the Sue family took over the project in the west of the city, they did not cooperate with the others anymore. However, they were still friendly before, so many people came to the Sue familys' mansion.In front of others, Harvey's performance was still as excellent as yesterday. His eyes were red and swollen, and he looked extremely sad. As for the cause of the old lady's death, it was also the recurrence of her old illness.Although the outsiders felt that this matter was very sudden, it was common for the old lady, at her age, to have such an accident. Moreover, this was an internal matter of the Sue family, and the outsiders did not ask about it.Samuel was dressed in black and stood outside the villa. He did not even have the qualifications to wear anesthesia because this villa belonged to Harvey. Har
Tian Changsheng smiled faintly and said, "You have to scare him so that he will not dare to come again."Tian Ling'er pouted and said with an unhappy face, "It's all because he said so every time. Since the first time I saw him, he said he would give me a gift. It's been so many years. I haven't seen a gift before.""Hahahaha." Tian Changsheng laughed. Although Wang Mao had a high status in Cloud City, he was also a decent person and never took any benefits from others. So his life was hard. How could he have the spare money to buy gifts for Tian Ling’er?However, this old fellow really cared about his face. He would bring this up every single time."Grandpa, why did Grandpa Wang come to you?" Tian Ling'er asked curiously."He had come to me for help." Tian Changsheng was sitting on the sofa with a smile on his face."Help? Grandpa Wang is not a businessman. What can you do for him?" Tian Ling'er said with confusion. She was not really angry that Wang Mao did not give her a gift,
On the day of the old lady's cremation, Samuel still couldn't go with the main force. Because of Harvey's attitude, everyone now regarded him as an outsider. However, when Harvey arrived at the crematorium, he encountered something.There were different levels to the crescendo in the square. Given the Old Madam's status, he naturally had to choose the highest level. However, Harvey had not made a reservation because of his mistake. As such, he could only leave the Old Madam's corpse aside. The group of people was waiting anxiously."What should we do? If we can't cremate today, we'll miss the lucky day. Harvey, hurry up and think of a way.""Yes, we can't let Mom wait here all the time.""Harvey, now that you're the chairman of the Sue family, are they not going to give you any face?"Harvey had already negotiated with the people of the crematorium, but today, the highest-level cremator was not an ordinary person. When he proposed to jump in the line, he was scolded by the leader
When Harvey returned to the relatives of the Sue family, the relatives all admired him very much."Harvey, as I said, how could such a small matter be difficult for you? Just now, the leader of the crematorium has appeared and said that it will be done for us soon.""You deserve to be the chairman of our company. Harvey, you are so awesome.""With the company in your hands, it will definitely develop better and better."Although this was not done by Harvey, no one knew that it was done by Samuel. Of course, he accepted all of this flattery. He said with a smile, "This is not a big deal. After all, I am now the chairman of the company. He still has to give me this face.""That's right. Who dares to embarrass the chairman of the Sue family?"Just as the relatives of the Sue family were proud of themselves, a disdainful voice sounded, "I don't care about the damn chairman."When Harvey saw the owner of the voice, his face changed. This was the leader in the office just now. The rel
With Samuel's help, the cremation did not delay the auspicious time, which was held on the same day. Unfortunately, the Sue family did not thank Samuel because of this. Instead, they hated him very much.Harvey, in particular, felt that he had lost face because of Samuel, so he had made Samuel pay for what he had done.A few days later, the matter of the Sue family calmed down, but it did not cause much trouble in Cloud City. After all, the old lady was not a big shot in the Sue family.That morning, Samuel's phone rang before he could even get up."Why haven't you gotten up yet? Don't you remember what happened today?" Tian Ling'er asked eagerly.Samuel opened his hazy eyes, looked at the time, and hung up the phone directly."What a lunatic! It's not yet six o'clock!"Tian Ling'er, who was on the other end of the line, had not seen Samuel for several days. That was why she could not wait. Although it was still early, in her opinion, Samuel had to face a very powerful opponent
"Senior Shangguan, I didn't expect it to be you.""Senior Shangguan, why have you come to Cloud City this time? Do you have anything important to do? If there's anything you need from me, please let me know.""Senior Shangguan, you really live up to the reputation of Cloud City Go Association. If you can teach us a few moves casually, our chess skills will definitely improve a lot."Shangguan Heibai had long been accustomed to being praised. Wherever he went, he would be welcomed by a large number of people.With an official smile on his face, he walked to Wang Mao and said, "Whether I can give you some advice or not depends on your president's strength."Wang Mao's face was a bit ugly. After losing for so many years, he had already had a shadow when he faced Shangguan Heibai, but the retreat in his heart made him lose without a fight."Senior Shangguan, are you going to fight with the president?""Great, it's our great honor to see Senior Shangguan playing chess with our own ey
As soon as Wang Mao said that, all the members of the Go Association looked at Xu Huan. Everyone knew that Wang Mao had two apprentices, one was Xie Fei and the other was Xu Huan.Xie Fei had been expelled from the sect by Wang Mao a few days ago. Only Xu Huan could fight for him.However, Xu Huan's attainments in Go were not outstanding. If it was Xie Fei, they could understand. But if he sent Xu Huan to fight, wouldn't it be obvious that they were going to lose?Samuel was already by the side of Tian Changsheng. He didn't know what had happened because he was late."President, with Xu Huan's strength, how could she possibly be a match for Senior Shangguan's disciple? Let's not waste any more time. Go ahead and fight.""That's right. How could Xu Huan possibly win?""We all know her attainments in Go."Hearing these words, although Xu Huan was not convinced, she could only grit her teeth and said nothing. Because she did not have a deep understanding of Go, and as for strength,
Wang Mao looked at Samuel gratefully. If Samuel did not act with him, it would not be as simple as losing face on the chessboard today.Shangguan Heibai looked Samuel up and down disdainfully and said, "Alright, when your disciple loses, you can fight again. But I advise you to be prepared as soon as possible."Shangguan Heibai was very confident in Ouyang Xiujie's strength. After all, Ouyang Xiujie was his carefully trained disciple. If he could not even defeat Wang Mao's disciple, it would be a waste of effort."Ah, I have to waste time with you. Hurry up, my time is very precious." Ouyang Xiujie looked listless. It seemed that he was not interested in playing chess with Samuel at all.Xu Huan brought the chessboard. Ouyang Xiujie held White, Samuel played Black. The chess game officially began.The bystanders stretched their necks, and Wang Mao was also very nervous. If Samuel could not win Ouyang Xiujie, this battle would be unavoidable for him. And if Samuel lost, he would al
