Chapter 719: Successfully Tricked
Jian Yiling shook her head: “You can find another successor. If that’s the case, the stock price wouldn’t drop and you won’t become a laughing stock.”
“Umm… Then before I find a suitable successor, can you be the successor for the time being? Don’t worry, there’s basically nothing you need to do. It won’t require a lot of effort on your part. If there is a lot of work, I can help you deal with the day-to-day matters.”
Zhang Xuming did not want to push Jian Yiling right into the position. After all, she could immediately say no. And thus, his old bones had to hold on for a little while more.
Ahhh, after all, he was already this old. In his lifetime, he only found one suitable successor!
Xuming Medical Manufacturers was basically the efforts of his entire lifetime. He could not rest assured handing the company over to anyone else.
Furthermore, Jian Yiling helped Xuming Medical Manufacturers during their struggles. In fact, she was basically like a second parent to their company.
He was willing to hand the company over to her.
“You’re tricking me,” Jian Yiling replied. She wasn’t stupid. She knew that once she accepted this role, it would be hard for her to get rid of it. After all, it would take Zhang Xuming forever to find another suitable successor.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuming said: “Well, things are already like this. Can you bear to see me be sad? Can you bear to see me be ridiculed by everyone? You’re hurting this old man! Either way, I don’t have many years to live anymore. Maybe, if someone is making fun of me, I might get a stroke and pass away.”
Zhang Xuming was gambling on the fact that Jian Yiling cared for him.
Although the little girl appeared to look cold-hearted, her heart was actually incredibly warm.
Jian Yiling pondered for a long time before she replied: “Ahhh, find a successor as soon as possible then.”
Zhang Xuming gambled correctly.
She said this even though she knew that Zhang Xuming did this deliberately
Zhang Xuming hurriedly replied: “Yes, yes. Of course, I will try my best.”
However, in reality, this was impossible.
After all, he tried to find a suitable successor for decades already.
Perhaps, it was possible for him to find a successor if he lived another eighty years.

Beijing. In a recreational room.
Zhai Yunsheng was currently boxing with Xing Wei.
Both men weren’t wearing anything on the upper half of their bodies. Sweat flowed down their muscles.
Han Mengyu watched the two of them. Boxing wasn’t for him. Therefore, he decided to just watch the two of them.
After the round was over, the two of them left the boxing stage. Han Mengyu walked up and handed them a towel each.
Then, he teased Xing Wei: “Only you dare to fight with Master Sheng like this.”
Zhai Yunsheng and Xing Wei picked up the towel to wipe the sweat from their bodies.
Then, Zhai Yunsheng asked Han Mengyu as he wiped the sweat off his body: “How’s it going?”
His voice was low and serious. This was unlike Master Sheng.
Han Mengyu replied: “Don’t worry about it. This is something incredibly small. We will definitely take care of it. We won’t let your wife be bullied. For those that are commenting bad things about her, their businesses won’t be very successful in the coming months.”
If they wanted to deal with someone, it didn’t really take much effort.
Especially those who liked to talk a lot. Usually, those individuals were not capable at all.
Those individuals would definitely not be smiling once they were done with them.
Then, Han Mengyu asked Zhai Yunsheng: “Oh, by the way, how are you going to deal with the incident? Your wife’s identity was revealed. Although there’s not much danger for the time being, the person who did this obviously doesn’t respect you nor your wife.”
However, this matter wasn’t the same as the other matters.
After all, the person involved was Wen Ruo.
Wen Ruo was from the Wen family. She was Jian Yiling’s cousin.
Wen Cheng belonged to the Wen family. He cared about Jian Yiling a lot. Furthermore, the entire Wen family would become involved.
Similar to Jian Yiling being the treasure of Grandma Jian and Grandpa Jian, Wen Ruo was also treasured by Grandma Wen and Grandpa Wen.
