If Fu Yunyi and Fu Chi are indeed as some people speculate—seemingly harmonious on the surface but actually locked in a fierce struggle for family property—then things might actually develop in the way they hope.
Even Fu Chi's rivals probably wish they could see this uncle and nephew fight amongst themselves.
After all, that way they can profit, right?
Unfortunately, that's not the case.
Fu Yunyi wasn't forced into the entertainment industry by Fu Chi; he genuinely enjoyed being a star.
Fu Chi wasn't really indifferent to everyone; he valued his family, even though he appeared cold towards them.
Therefore, some people wanted to take advantage of this opportunity, whether for their own benefit or for the so-called benefit of the company, to openly or secretly instigate Fu Yunyi's affairs, but Fu Yunyi turned the tables and reported it to Fu Chi.
Fu Yunyi: My uncle and I are blood relatives. If I don't side with my uncle, who else should I side with?
Fu Yunyi might be confused in other areas, but he certainly wouldn't be confused about this matter.
Besides, after being forcibly dragged over by the old man to support him and experiencing firsthand what kind of life Fu Chi usually led, Fu Yunyi was even more eager to avoid Fu Chi's position.
Being a celebrity isn't easy, especially after you become famous. Fu Yunyi is actually a very hard-working person, and he works quite hard, sometimes even working day and night.
But at least it's a job he likes, and it's something he did willingly, so the psychological feeling is different.
Moreover, as a celebrity, all he needs to do is his job well; he doesn't need to worry about any other miscellaneous things!
What about Fu Chi?
Is Fu Chi's job even humanly possible?
Fu Chi needs to take charge of the overall situation of Hangu Group, and Fu Chi also needs to steer Tianhuan Entertainment. There are also many social engagements to attend to. Just that is enough to make Fu Yunyi dizzy.
Not to mention, Fu Chi himself has quite a few investments. Although he doesn't need to constantly monitor those investments, he still needs to keep an eye on them from time to time. He can't just put money in there and watch those people waste it, can he?
Fu Yunyi: My uncle is not human!
Stealing Fu Chi's place?
Fu Yunyi: You want me dead!
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Fu Chi already knew what kind of person Fu Yunyi was. He might have doubts about others, but he had no doubts about Fu Yunyi or Old Master Fu at all.
Moreover, Fu Chi didn't voluntarily come back to take on this responsibility. He was originally planning to start his own business, and he was doing quite well. If it weren't for the unexpected family incident, he would have had to come back to take over this huge undertaking for his grandfather's sake...
If Fu Yunyi really had that idea, Fu Chi wouldn't play along with his elaborate family drama. After confirming that Fu Yunyi could indeed take over this huge undertaking, he would probably let go.
He acts like a workaholic simply because in the past, nothing else could interest him besides work.
But things are different now. If he could really let go of all these things, he could still follow Xia Zhiyi around. After all, he wouldn't be bored being with his wife.
However, Fu Yunyi himself was unwilling; Fu Yunyi preferred to be a carefree actor who didn't have to use his brain.
Compared to Fu Chi's work, Fu Yunyi felt that his job didn't really require much brainpower.
Fu Chi: "Give me the list."
Fu Yunyi said "Oh," then, as if remembering something, said to Fu Chi, "By the way, there are a few people that Grandpa praised before who also have some ulterior motives, but I haven't told Grandpa."
Fu Chi understood. Fu Yunyi was afraid that the old man would be upset if he knew about this. After all, by approaching Fu Yunyi at this time, they were essentially betraying the old man's trust.
Fu Chi: "Dad isn't as fragile as you think."
Fu Yunyi: "I know, but these kinds of things still put me in a bad mood."
Fu Yunyi smiled as he spoke, "I'm not saying we should hide it from Grandpa, but I just feel that Grandpa's mood has already been low lately because of your injury, Uncle, so we shouldn't let these people bother him any further."
"If you ask me, I'd just fire anyone with ulterior motives. But I also know that personnel changes in a company aren't so simple, so I didn't do anything. I'm just waiting for you to wake up so I can deal with them."
Fu Chi nodded slightly. "I understand. Give me the list, and I'll have someone investigate it more thoroughly."
Fu Chi: "That's good. We can take this opportunity to pick out some of the parasites."
Fu Yunyi: "I'll do whatever you say, Uncle."
Fu Yunyi: "By the way, Grandpa and I haven't spread the news of your waking up; only a few people know about it."
Fu Chi: "Yes, keep it like this."
When Xia Zhiyi returned, she was carrying two bags of fruit. As soon as she entered, she saw Fu Yunyi playing a game on his phone, while Fu Chi was flipping through documents, presumably dealing with the work that Fu Yunyi had brought over.
He paused slightly, then walked in with a smile, "Looks like I came back just in time. Have you finished talking?"
While playing the game, Fu Yunyi answered his question, "We've finished talking. Teng Shu said that he had a previous collaboration with my uncle and asked if I wanted to continue the collaboration. I was afraid of being tricked, so I asked for the contract and brought it over to show my uncle."
This served as an explanation for Fu Chi.
Fu Chi also looked up at this moment, his cold and stern eyes softening when he saw Xia Zhiyi: "You're back."
Xia Zhiyi: "Um, what contract? Can I take a look?"
Fu Chi readily agreed, nodded, and handed the combined contract to Xia Zhiyi.
After Xia Zhiyi put the fruit away, she opened the contract and glanced at it, only to find that it was a collaboration with the audio-visual company and the Hangu Group.
"Is it from a previous collaboration?"
Fu Chi shook his head. "No, I mentioned it briefly before, but we haven't discussed it in detail yet."
" Teng Shu probably didn't know I was awake, so she went to find Fu Yunyi, probably hoping to gain more benefits while I was still asleep."
From a business perspective, Teng Shu was acting in the best interests of her own company, and the contract didn't deliberately create any traps. She simply gave her side a slightly larger share of the profits, but it wasn't excessive.
If Fu Yunyi knew nothing and signed the contract in a daze, Fu Chi wouldn't have fallen out with Teng Shu even after learning the contents of the contract.
After all, this can also be seen as a test for Fu Yunyi. If Fu Yunyi really wants to take over the company in the future, then this minor setback will be beneficial to him.
If Teng Shu knew that Fu Chi had already woken up, he probably would still do it anyway. After all, trying it wouldn't hurt, and he hadn't gone too far.
Xia Zhiyi quickly finished reading the contract, not particularly interested in the profit-sharing arrangement between Fu Chi and Teng Shu. She handed the contract back to Fu Chi, saying, " Sister Chen also asked me before when you were going back to the company."
Upon hearing this, Fu Chi looked up at him and asked, "Are you willing to do that?"
