The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife
Chapter 328 - 328 328 Patricide and Seizure of Power

328: Chapter 328: Patricide and Seizure of Power 328: Chapter 328: Patricide and Seizure of Power “Hello, Mr.

Wu, it’s so late, what’s the matter?” Su Qingyu’s mind was groggy, sounding utterly exhausted, the alcohol making her eyelids incredibly heavy.

She rubbed her temples trying to clear her head.

“Miss Su, the plane…

it crashed, my father…” Wu Yu spoke haltingly, seemingly on the verge of tears.

When he mentioned the plane crash, Su Qingyu’s mind crashed too, as if it had been bombed by an atomic bomb, incessantly questioning, how could this happen, how could this happen.

Su Qingyu immediately informed her colleagues about the incident, everyone was uniformly silent, their gloomy expressions speaking volumes.

They had just celebrated a successful negotiation, only to receive the tragic news about Wu Liang; such are the huge ups and downs of life.

Driving the car, Su Qingyu and An Lan headed straight to the Wu Family mansion, which usually boasted elegant and lavish decorations but now was all draped in white fabric.

The lively hall was now desolate, all members of the Wu Family were dressed in black.

As soon as Su Qingyu entered, she saw Wu Yu in black silently staring at the wooden coffin in the center of the hall.

“Mr.

Wu, what exactly happened?” Su Qingyu walked directly to Wu Yu, forcibly suppressing the urgency in her heart, and asked with concern.

The bad news about Wu Liang had hit Wu Yu the hardest, and Su Qingyu didn’t want to rub salt into the wound.

“The plane to Yangcheng suddenly exploded mid-air, everyone…

everyone perished.” After a long pause, Wu Yu finally spoke softly with a faint voice.

“How could this happen, everything was going so well.” Su Qingyu also found it hard to accept such a reality; Wu Liang’s death was too sudden and too bizarre, inevitably leading to wild speculations.

“Thud, thud, thud.” At that moment, footsteps approached from outside.

A group of people in black came in, led by Wu Family’s eldest son Wu Zijian and Wu Ke, followed by a group of bodyguards, all wearing sorrowful expressions.

Seeing them, Wu Yu got a clear understanding of the situation, his fists clenched tightly as anger surged within him.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I believe everyone here knows the reason for coming.” Wu Ke slowly walked up to the podium and spoke into the microphone with a solemn tone, seemingly mourning.

“The Sect Leader of the Wu Family, Mr.

Wu Liang, has unfortunately died tonight, and his brother, I, am very saddened.” Wu Ke was speaking while tears started to flow.

He took a moment to adjust his tone, slowly continuing.

Su Qingyu didn’t know the truth, but Wu Yu certainly did, wishing he could instantly strangle Wu Ke right there – mourning for a fox is nothing but hypocrisy.

“The passing of Mr.

Wu Liang is a loss for our Wu Family and a huge loss for the Wu Group.” Wu Ke continued making a sorrowful address above, while Su Qingyu looked around; there were many people present, including Wu Family’s relatives, Wu Group’s executives, and some high officials and eminent figures from Hong Kong.

“A person’s death is like turning off a lamp; we should mourn and move on.

Although Mr.

Wu Liang unfortunately perished, a family cannot be without a leader for a single day, we should quickly choose a new Family Head.” Upon saying this, everyone looked up.

Wu Ke glanced unnaturally at Wu Zijian, almost no one noticed, but both of them slightly smiled.

“The Wu Group is a family business, traditionally, the Family Head should be inherited by the Heir.

Since the big brother did not leave a last will, I think, the position should be passed to the eldest son, Wu Zijian.” Wu Ke spoke deliberately, revealing his true intentions.

As soon as he finished, there was an uproar among the crowd; seeing Wu Zijian’s lips curl into a smile, Wu Yu knew exactly what was happening.

Filled with raging anger and devoid of his usual composed demeanor, he furiously charged forward, swinging a punch at Wu Zijian’s face.

“Bang.” Everyone was shocked by the scene; Wu Zijian was hit with a punch and bled from his nose, falling to the ground.

“Bastard, Wu Ke, it was clearly your plot, scheming against my father, coveting the position of Family Head,” Wu Yu yelled resonantly, pointing at Wu Ke on stage.

“My God, isn’t that Wu Yu, the second son of the Wu Family?”

“Yes, what did he just say?

Wu Ke is plotting a conspiracy, is that true?”

…

The crowd below fell into chaos, everyone was exclaiming in shock, Wu Ke once again showed a smile, he got the effect he wanted.

“How dare you, Wu Yu, you are the second son of the Wu Family, how do you have the qualifications to vie for the position of Family Head, and now you even publicly resort to violence?” Wu Ke stood on the stage and reprimanded loudly, Su Qingyu also realized that Wu Yu was too impulsive and quickly stopped him.

Wu Zijian slowly got up, holding a tissue and wiping the blood, he was not angry at all, instead, he looked at Wu Yu with a sinister smile.

“Wu Zijian, you beast, how dare you commit patricide.” Wu Yu lost his reason and yelled loudly, and if it hadn’t been for the bodyguards stopping him, he would have continued to fight.

“Wu Yu, you create a disturbance at the memorial service, clearly disturbing the peace of the Family Head, you do not deserve to be a descendant of the Wu Family.” At this time, a voice rose from the crowd.

“Wu Zijian is the eldest son, he should rightfully inherit the position of the Family Head.”

…

These voices were all from the main branch personnel of the Wu Family, most of them belong to the side branches, today’s scene, of course, was also pre-planned by Wu Ke, aimed to use the momentum to attack Wu Yu.

“Ladies and gentlemen from Hong Kong, I’m really sorry to have let you witness this scene, I hope this matter will stop here.” Wu Ke spoke at this time, on one hand to control the situation, since there were many foreign guests present, and on the other hand, to leave a bad impression of Wu Yu in their hearts, internally and externally, Wu Yu would not receive any help.

Hong Kong’s business and political circles almost all know, Wu Yu is a business genius and a capable manager, under his management in recent years, the Wu Family has been thriving, whereas Wu Zijian is an incompetent person, indulging in eating, drinking, and gambling, uneducated.

Wu Ke feared that Wu Zijian would not gain people’s support, so his plan was to tarnish Wu Yu’s image to the maximum extent.

“Wu Yu, I will overlook this matter today for the sake that you are also my elder brother’s son, your actions have already disgraced the Wu Family.” Wu Ke said coldly, then turned to face the crowd below.

“As all the guests from Hong Kong are here today, they can help testify, I now nominate Wu Zijian, the eldest son of the Wu Family, as the next Family Head.

All members of the Wu Family, whether from the direct lineage or the side branches, if you agree, please raise your hand.” Right after he finished speaking, Wu Ke was the first to raise his hand, then hands sprang up like bamboo shoots after a rain.

Wu Yu watched this scene in front of him, furious beyond measure, these people all understood the full picture, their actions were merely for their own interests, utterly disregarding the rise and fall of the Wu Family, overwhelmed by rage, Wu Yu spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his vision turned dark, and he fainted.
