Wenwen listened attentively, realizing belatedly that Si Yue had long been working against the Chang Group. Si Yue’s approach was gradual, slowly weakening the Chang Group’s influence in secret. As one of the major domestic players, the Chang Group’s business was not small, and toppling them suddenly could lead to economic instability and attract unwanted attention.

Wenwen now understood the benefit of having powerful backing and enjoying someone else’s protection. He had long wanted to plot against the Chang family, but his young age and the watchful eyes of adults limited him. As he was brooding over his powerlessness, Si Yue’s actions came as a pleasant surprise.

Wenwen’s eyes sparkled as he looked at Si Yue, feeling a sudden sense of security. He and his mother were now under this person’s protection, no longer easy targets for bullying.

After the secretarial team finished their reports and left, only Si Yue and Wenwen remained in the office.

Si Yue looked at his son, patted his head, and asked, “How much did you understand just now?”

Wenwen shook his head and replied innocently, “Not much.” Being a child, it would be too bizarre if he gave an honest answer.

Si Yue chuckled and did not dwell on the issue. He pinched Wenwen’s soft cheek, not caring whether he understood or not, and shared, “The Chang Group’s influence is deeply rooted, and previously untouchable due to their strange luck. Any opposition would backfire. But a few months ago, I tested the waters and found their luck might be running out.”

Si Yue had long since disliked the couple. He, however, instinctively knew that going against them would end badly, so he had initially avoided confrontation. But after meeting Ruoruo and learning about Wenwen’s paternity, he investigated the Chang Group thoroughly and discovered their eerily good fortune. Anyone who opposed the Chang family and Fang Xueruo would meet with misfortune and everything they did turned out profitable, even on seemingly doomed investments.

Later, the couple continued making trouble for Ruoruo. Even Si Yue’s patience had its limit; how could he let them bully the mother of his son? So he started causing some minor troubles for the Chang Group. To his surprise, they easily fell into his traps and suffered substantial losses.

Even more surprising was when Si Yue found he was not counterattacked. This made him realize their luck might be waning, so he took advantage of the momentum to press on with more schemes. Unfortunately, the Chang Group was a large corporation with deep roots, which allowed them to survive – any smaller corporation would have been bankrupted by now. Although Si Yue’s actions had significantly weakened the foundation of the Chang Group, they could recover with enough time.

“I’m not a good person, nor do I expect you to be purely good,” Si Yue continued. As his son, Wenwen would one day take his place and couldn’t afford to be overly kind and weak.

Wenwen’s round eyes widened in shock. Can you teach your child like this? Where in the world a parent advise their child to be a bad person?

Although Wenwen wasn’t exactly virtuous himself and had done a lot of bad things in his previous life, his mother wanted him to grow up a proper man. For his mother’s sake, he had been trying to be a good child in this life, but now Si Yue was saying he didn’t have to be good?

“However, even if we are to be bad, we’ll do it openly and honorably,” Si Yue said, squeezing Wenwen’s cheek affectionately. He hadn’t done it in a while and truly missed this sensation.
