Chapter 624 - The Guan\'s family Heir

In the end, Guan Xixin rebelled and never gotten close to their grandfather. Unlike his older brother who was more obedient and was buried under many responsibilities as the eldest, Guan Xixin sneaked out of the country many times to visit the comatose Guan Gao Huan overseas and consulted with the doctors.

When he heard that Guan Gao Huan finally awakened from his coma, for some reason, Guan Xixin was sent away again and he could not find his little brother.

He talked to his grandfather about it and was told that it was best for Guan Gao Huan to recuperate alone with the doctors. It was the unanimous advice of the professionals, so his Grandpa had to follow.

Guan Xixin had no choice but to continue on with his life while hating his grandfather and himself for not staying with Guan Gao Huan at those s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e times. There had always been that weird feeling in his heart that kept him awake many times at night and wished he could fly to see his brother immediately.

Until finally, Guan Gao Huan appeared before them.

However, unlike what Guan Xixin expected, he was not pleased at all when he met his little brother.

The eyes, the face, the hair... They were the same, but felt entirely different!

Something was very off!

He was unlike his little brother at all, he totally did not have that aura of his most beloved little brother at all!

His weirdly strong instincts since young had never failed him.

Guan Xixin doubted Guan Gao Huan\'s existence since he had met him. He tried to convince his grandfather and Guan Gu Ri many times that the Guan Gao Huan who appeared to them was a fake. He tried many times to prove himself, but all evidences failed him.

Both his grandfather and older brother just saw him as someone who was consumed by guilt that it turned into hate.

He himself almost believed the same.

Yet no matter what they said, this doubt could not be erased from his heart.

And it was only getting stronger as time passed.

"What is your goal? Where is my real brother?" Guan Xixin asked again the thing which he always asked Guan Gao Huan. "Who sent you here?"

Guan Gao Huan\'s face finally darkened. He erased his smile from his face.

He was already in a very bad mood to begin with.

"I don\'t know what you are playing at, but you have really done it this time. Doubting me all the time. Let\'s just say that the Guan Gao Huan you knew has already died ever since you three abandoned me."

A painful prick stabbed Guan Xixin\'s heart. He paled. His eyes then turned livid.

"Don\'t you dare use that excuse! If you are the real Gao Huan, I will definitely apologize to you and make it up to you. But I am absolutely sure, you, are, not, my, brother."

He stood up coldly.

"Is your goal the Guan heir position? I don\'t know who is helping you, fake, but I will not allow the Guan Empire to fall into your hands, no matter how many Univ Ones you come up with."

"...."

Guan Gao Huan also stood up.

He narrowed his eyes to this man who always stood in his way.

Perhaps he should kill him.

If this man died, then Old Guan\'s upcoming death would be reasonable. He would die due to the grief over his grandson\'s death. When the two core men who were blocking the heir position were gone, he could become the heir easily, since Guan Gu Ri had no intention of fighting.

The vicious glint in his eyes were blocked by the contact lenses.

Right, Guan Gao Huan should not hesitate anymore.

After all, no idiot would believe this man.

His countenance slowly changed from a refined and gentle demeanor to a more relaxed and lazy air. However, there was a wicked smile slowly forming on his lips.

"Then fight me as you wish, though I wonder if you can win. After all, you are just a useless brother who could not even protect his own beloved brother."

Guan Xixin: !!!

This air! The hateful aura he felt faintly before had gotten truly apparent!

He glared furiously at Guan Gao Huan.

Guan Gao Huan just looked at him coldly and left.

Ha!

These brothers, and that grandfather as well, were all useless.

They were all telling him about familial love and all... but the person who should be receiving it was already gone.

A sickly boy with his eyes closed while lying still on a hospital bed appeared in his mind.

The real Guan Gao Huan... that sickly little boy... was already gone.

He died, and none of his family was even beside him.

*****

The fame of Univ One had dominated the ICT industry for a couple of weeks with the help of the Guan Empire. Guan Gao Huan\'s face was plastered all over the news as the impressive man behind Univ One.

The Guan Empire\'s shareholders expressed their goodwill and support to Guan Gao Huan as well.

Before Guan Gao Huan joined the contention for heir position, the contention was divided into two factions before.

The elders wanted Guan Gu Ri to become the heir of the Guan Empire and secretly gathered supporters to make him sit on the position. The elders wanted him to be the successor due to the reasons that he was the eldest descendant of the Guan\'s direct bloodline, and he always followed the elders\' decisions and arrangements obediently.

However, it was this exact reason that made Old Guan disdain making Guan Gu Ri the heir, as he thought that the latter was someone who had no backbone and with mediocre abilities.

On the other hand, Guan Xixin had gained Old Guan\'s favor. The second young master was talented with very good intuition in business. He was a bit rebellious, but he still gained Old Guan\'s faction and the support of others\' as well.

However, this second young master had declared a few years ago that he would not fight for the succession with his eldest brother, while the eldest young master wanted to push his second brother onto the position.

Other families fought to get the heir position, but this Guan potential heirs contended to push the position to each other instead.

It really made the bystanders speechless!

This made the succession battle, the most significant contention of talents of the legendary families\' younger generation, to be stagnant, making the supporters of either side at loss. Even when a few years had passed, there was still no clear picture of who would be the Guan family\'s successor.

Until suddenly, Guan Gao Huan appeared in front of the shareholders, with Univ One in his hand.

****

On the conference hall on one of the top floors of the Guan Empire Building, the shareholders and the board of directors gathered. They previously received a call from the head butler, saying that there would be an urgent meeting today.

Guan Gu Ri had already arrived early and was talking amiably to the people present in the room.

Finally, the door of the large conference hall opened.

Old Guan came in with a cane. He was being supported by Guan Gao Huan at his side while his butler was walking behind them.

"Greetings, Headmaster."

"Greetings, grandfather."

Old Guan raised a hand to allow everyone to sit down.

Guan Gu Ri pulled out Old Guan\'s seat and assisted the elderly to sit down. He glanced at the old man\'s face which had a pale and gaunt complexion.

How come his grandfather looked much older than the last time that he saw him?

Last time, Guan Gu Ri was only able to talk to his grandfather for a few minutes in Guan Gao Huan\'s banquet before the old man slipped away.

Did his grandfather get sick without them knowing?

Guan Gu Ri was inwardly worried.

Guan Gao Huan greeted the people inside politely.

Old Guan started thanking the elders for the current support they showed for his third grandson\'s project.

"Everyone, thank you for coming here. I am glad that all of you is being very supportive in taking over Univ One."

"There is no need to be polite, Head Master. We should be the one thanking the mighty bloodline of the Guan family in producing such a genius. Univ One is a great blessings to us," one of the elders said. He looked at Guan Gao Huan with satisfaction.

Guan Gao Huan smiled politely. "Elder, this is all thanks to everyone\'s hard work. Without the support I received from many people, I will not be able to create Univ One."

"Third Young Master Guan is surely modest. With the acquisition of Univ One, our stock price and market share keep on rising in this short amount of time. I am sure that the more we made progress in developing Univ One, the more the Guan Empire will benefit from it!"

"You indeed spoke the truth. The other heads from the families are even envious of me. I am also glad to have such a talented grandson," Old Guan said with a weak smile.

Guan Gao Huan expressed his embarrassment and thanks.

After a round of pleasantries and flatterings, Old Guan looked at the empty seat that was for his second grandson.

Even for today\'s urgent meeting, his second grandson did not come.

Old Guan sighed. He had no choice but to announce this without him.

He finally went to today\'s objective.

"I will go straight to the point. In truth, I gathered all of you here to discuss the matters of the succession."
