Chapter: 2828
When He Yingxiu spoke, He Hongsheng quickly replied, “In that case, once I’m settled at home, I’ll go to Jinling with you and wait for Master Ye’s orders.”
He Yingxiu nodded. Even though her father was getting older, he was still the strongest in their family. She knew that if he didn’t go to Jinling, it would be hard to explain to Ye Shaoye.
Then she asked her father, “Dad, what should we do about the Su family?”
He Hongsheng, who had recently advanced in his training and become the second master in the He family’s history to break through the fourth meridian, was excited. Hearing his daughter’s question inspired him to think about their family’s future.
He replied, “Since Master Ye has given us such a great opportunity, I will end our partnership with the Su family and cut all ties with them. We need to find the right people to go to Jinling and pledge our loyalty to Master Ye.”
He continued, feeling emotional, “Master Ye only needs eleven people from the He family. This means that the elderly, women, and children can stay at home. Those who are still developing their skills can remain in Mocheng to train hard.”
He sighed, “Mocheng is a place our ancestors built, and I don’t want to leave it behind. Before the Su family pushed us south, we had to abandon our old home. This way, the rest of our people can stay in Mocheng and continue working towards their goals.”
He Yingxiu nodded thoughtfully before saying, “Dad, I’d like to discuss something with you.”
He Hongsheng quickly replied, “What is it?”
“Hey!” He Yingxiu said. “When I went to Jinling this time, I didn’t think about my older brother. Even though he has good skills, he has wasted a lot of time in recent years and isn’t focused on this. He can’t even meet Master Ye. As for his two sons, they are even less impressive; they aren’t even in the top 20 of the family.”
“You’re right,” He Hongsheng replied seriously. “Your brother is only thinking about making money. When Su Anshun came with a one-billion check, he was so excited. It’s really disappointing.” He sighed again. “I had hoped to hand over the He family to him one day, but after watching him over the years, I don’t think he’s capable.”
He Yingxiu quickly reassured him, “Dad, you don’t need to worry about that. I believe the He family will thrive under your leadership in the next 20 years! As for choosing a future leader, you don’t have to stress about it now. With you in charge and Ye Shaoye’s support, the next generation of the He family will surely be stronger. We will definitely find someone suitable to lead!”
Hearing this, He Hongsheng felt a bit better and nodded, looking forward to the future of the He family. But then he thought of Su Ruoli and sighed. “If only Li were still here. Right now, looking at the He family, your brother is too focused on enjoying life, your second brother has only average talent, and your situation is quite unique. There’s no one in the younger generation who has the ambition and decisiveness of a true leader. If I lose one more person, I won’t find anyone else as suitable to lead the He family.”
Yingxiu was surprised but couldn’t help but speak up. “Dad, if Li is a girl with a foreign surname, many people might not accept her as the leader of the He family, even if she is here.”
“Not accept her?” He Hongsheng scoffed. “It seems you don’t know enough about Ruoli. With her determination, no one in this family can match her. She will handle any challenges easily, even your oldest brother won’t stand a chance against her.”
He Yingxiu thought about how Ruoli had destroyed the Matsumoto family in Japan and sighed. “Li was too aggressive before. The Su family used her as a weapon, which gave her a lot of anger and negativity.”
“True,” He Hongsheng agreed. “But let’s not dwell on that, Yingxiu. I know you still want to find Ruoli. I could have some of the younger family members team up in small groups to search for her. What do you think?”
He Yingxiu hesitated for a moment. “Dad, let’s hold off on that. Instead, let’s go to Jinling to see Master Ye. We can put the search for Ruoli aside for now.”
