Tao Su originally thought that he could solve the problem by coming to Qindao, but he never expected that things would turn out like this.
Another three days passed with no progress. Tao Yinan either locked himself in his room or went out to visit luxury stores without doing anything!
He couldn't wait from the moment he stepped on the land of Qindao. His exhausted patience made it impossible for him to endure it any longer. Even if it meant breaking up, he didn't care.
"Tao Yinan, what on earth do you mean! How many days has it been?" Tao Su came to Tao Yinan's room this time. When he entered the door, he started talking straight to the point.
"Brother, what do you mean?" Tao Yinan asked: "What happened in three days? I have to eat one bite at a time and do everything one by one. Am I not doing something?"
Tao Su was almost hysterical by Tao Yinan's words: "What are you doing? What have you done in the past three days?"
"You don't need to know what I did, you just need to know that I did it." Tao Yinan said.
"But you didn't do anything at all!" Tao Su said anxiously: "In the past three days, you think I don't know where you go every day? It's either Sunshine Department Store or Wanda Department Store. You just go shopping and buy bags every day.
Buy high heels! You also go to Snow Winery for wine tasting every night! You live a very chic life? Do you think I don’t know what you do?”
"It seems that you still have people following me." Tao Yinan's face was ugly: "Since you don't trust me, you shouldn't cooperate with me."
Tao Su was speechless for a moment. He did not trust Tao Yinan, but he had been pretending.
Now that Tao Yinan had exposed her, he had nothing to say. If he didn't admit that he arranged for someone to follow her, how could he know such details?
"Don't say it so harshly." Tao Su said, "It's protection. I'm arranging people to protect you! I'm worried that something will happen to you, do you understand?"
Tao Yinan smiled slightly: "Brother, you don't have to say it so nicely. I know what you are thinking better than anyone else."
"If you knew better, you would have helped me start doing practical things!" Tao Su was so angry that he frowned.
"Actually, some words should not be said too clearly. If you say them too clearly, things will become worse." Tao Yinan said.
Tao Su has no idea what Tao Yinan means by these things, but he can't listen to them now.
"Do you want to help me or not?" Tao Su issued an ultimatum.
Tao Yinan snorted: "If I told you that I now know what kind of car the other party drives, what the license plate number is, and it will appear at a fixed place at a fixed time every day, would you believe it?"
Tao Su was stunned for a moment.
He knew very well that Tao Yinan had done nothing!
He knew clearly that nothing had been done! But did she really have everything under control?
"In your eyes, I was just having fun. Your people just stared at me, but didn't see what I did." Tao Yinan said: "You don't trust me anyway, so it doesn't matter. What do you believe?
If it’s something you have to deal with, then you have to solve it yourself. From now on, it has nothing to do with me.”
Tao Su's temper calmed down on the spot: "Yinan, please stop joking with your brother."
"Do you think I'm joking? I remember what I said very clearly. If you think I'm not trustworthy, then don't believe me at all." Tao Yi Nan said righteously: "If you think I'm trustworthy, then
Just don’t keep doubting my actions and don’t follow me.”
I know that I did not consider this matter well." Tao Su said, "But that's not what I thought..."
"Then what are you thinking about?" Tao Yinan said: "Use me and then throw me away?"
"What are you talking about? Am I that kind of person?" Tao Su said displeased.
Tao Yinan smiled slightly: "Brother, although I don't know if you are that kind of person, I really need protection. You can also see clearly what my status is in the family now."
Tao Su was startled, and he began to understand Tao Yinan's true purpose.
"I don't want my status to be even inferior to that of some of my cousins." Tao Yinan said: "How much property do I still have in my hands? How much real power do I still have in my hands?"
Tao Su was silent. The real power in Tao Yinan's hands and the industry she controlled were indeed much less than five years ago.
And these are all things that were caused by his manipulation.
Now that Tao Yinan has brought this matter up, it is naturally self-evident.
What she wants is family status, which is exactly what Tao Su doesn't want to give her.
Once Tao Yinan obtains family status, she will become the woman who could influence the Tao family five years ago, which Tao Su cannot accept.
It took him five years to swallow up Tao Yinan's family status bit by bit. Almost all of his thoughts were focused on this matter.
"What I want is very simple. If you can't give me such a simple thing...then I..." Tao Yinan stopped here.
She looked at the ceramic sculpture as if waiting for his answer.
Tao Su took a deep breath. At this time, he didn't have any capital to reject Tao Yinan's conditions.
"Yinan, what do you want, just say it." Tao Su said. He wanted to see how big Tao Yinan's appetite was.
Tao Yinan smiled slightly: "Brother, you are the talker of the Tao family, the future successor of the Tao family, the president of our Tao family council, the maker and proposer of all rules. As your biological sister, I
, should at least be a member of the council, right?”
The Tao Family Council is an organization composed of people from the five branches of the Tao family. This organization formulates and enforces rules. It can pass or deny the conditions proposed by anyone.
The chairman of the council must be the future successor of the family and will remain unchanged through the ages.
In the past, Tao Yinan was naturally a member of the Tao family's council. The members of the council were only those with relatively high status and important positions in the Tao family.
But later Tao Su was worried that Tao Yinan would seek his power, and tried every means to remove Tao Yinan's rights. This led to the situation where Tao Yinan now has no say in the Tao family.
Tao Yinan has always been worried about this matter, and she must take back everything she has.
"Okay, I promise you." Tao Su said, "When you go back, you will be a member of the council immediately."
"Not going back." Tao Yinan said: "Now, I want you to find a way now to make everyone in the Tao family recognize me as the vice president of the council."
Tao Su was startled: "What did you say?!"
He could agree to Tao Yinan's request that he restore her identity now, but what did Tao Yinan just say?
Asking him to make her the vice president of the council?!
This condition is really too much!
What is a vice president? The vice president can exercise the rights of the president when the president is absent!
In other words, once there is this vice president, it means that the successor candidate of the Tao family is not only Tao Su himself, but also her Tao Yinan!
Once something happens to the pottery sculpture, something happens, or for various reasons...
At this time, the vice president has the right to obtain all the rights belonging to the president!
That way, Tao Yinan can directly take everything that belongs to the ceramic sculpture into his own hands.
"Yi Nan, don't you know the rules of our Tao family? If...if the president has no intention of giving up, he will not mention the vice president. Promoting the vice president means that I have handed over the Tao family's scepter.
Do you understand what you mean?" Tao Su said very directly.
Tao Yinan nodded: "Of course I understand. I don't want to hand over the Tao family to me at all, so I don't dare."
"No, I didn't mean that, but I..." Tao Su was suddenly startled. If something happened to him, the vice president's interests would be too great.
Seeing the change in Tao Sculpture's expression, Tao Yinan was a little flustered. She seemed to regret whether she had been too anxious. If she hadn't been so anxious, perhaps the matter could have been handled more simply.
It would be a bit tricky if Tao Su became suspicious. Tao Yinan's heart was already jumping like a wild deer, and he quickly avoided Tao Su's eyes without realizing it.
