It is better to be a demon than a god. All demons are created by me.

Wang Taixing's heart was always lingering with a lingering fear. He firmly believed that Zhong Liyu had summoned him here on purpose, hiding an unspeakable murderous intention behind it, and even placed him alone in the guest room, which made him feel that this was a carefully arranged conspiracy.

As night fell, Wang Taixing tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

In order to seek a little peace of mind, he carefully locked the door and dragged the heavy sofa to the door with great effort. He curled up behind the sofa, his eyes full of vigilance and anxiety.

Even so, fear still followed him like a shadow, invading every dream of his.

Wang Taixing spent the whole night in tension and anxiety. Every time he closed his eyes, he seemed to hear ominous footsteps approaching, and every time he woke up, he was accompanied by cold sweat and accelerated heartbeats.

He struggled in this endless cycle of fear, longing for the arrival of dawn to dispel the haze shrouding his heart.

As soon as a faint dawn appeared on the horizon, Wang Taixing could no longer endure the torment in his heart. He got up in a hurry and ran to Zhongli Yuancai's residence in a hurry.

He was filled with urgency and anxiety, as if he would be swallowed up by the unknown fear if he was late for a second.

When he arrived at the door, Wang Taixing took a deep breath, mustered up his courage, and knocked on the door hard.

The sound of "dong dong dong" was particularly clear in the quietness of the early morning, and also disturbed Zheng Rong, the grandmother who was immersed in the dream in the house.

Soon, there was a rustling sound in the house, followed by Zheng Rong's slightly sleepy but kind voice: "Who is it? Knocking on the door so early."

Wang Taixing quickly responded: "Grandma, it's me, Wang Taixing. I have something urgent to do and want to find grandpa. Please open the door."

The door opened slightly, and Zheng Rong's figure came into view. She was wearing a thin coat, and her eyes were still gentle and tired from the dream.

She caught the unconcealable anxiety on Wang Taixing's face, and all the sleepiness disappeared instantly, replaced by full of concern.

"Taixing, you kid, why are you here so early? Is something wrong?" Her voice was full of warmth and eagerness.

Wang Taixing did not answer immediately, but leaned into the door, his eyes quickly swept across the empty bed, and he couldn't help feeling a little lost and uneasy.

"Where's grandpa? Is he not here?" He asked softly, his tone revealing his eagerness to find out where Zhongli Yuancai had gone.

Zheng Rong heard this, his eyes flickered slightly, as if he remembered something unpleasant.

She sighed softly, trying to keep her tone calm: "Your grandpa had some urgent matters to deal with last night, so he went out. What do you want to see him for? Maybe grandma can help you solve it."

"It's okay, I just can't sleep alone in an unfamiliar environment, so I want to find you."

Zheng Rong gently comforted Wang Taixing and welcomed him into the room. "It's still early, you can sleep with grandma, your grandpa will be back at noon."

For Wang Taixing, even in this embrace full of family affection, the uneasiness in his heart is still difficult to calm down.

He lay on the bed, tossing and turning, and every time he closed his eyes, he seemed to hear subtle sounds from the outside world, making it difficult for him to really fall asleep.

In a blink of an eye, noon has arrived, and the whole family is sitting in the living room. The table is full of sumptuous lunch, but there is an unusual tension in the air.

Everyone is waiting for Zhong Liyu's arrival, and at the same time, they also noticed Zhong Liyuancai's absence.

"Why isn't Dad here? Where did he go?" Zhongli Yuancai's children began to ask, revealing their concern and confusion about their father's whereabouts.

"Last night at midnight, that woman called your dad again." Zheng Rong's words were filled with disgust and helplessness that were difficult to conceal. Whenever she mentioned "that person", her eyes could not help but reveal deep disgust.

Zhongli Yuancai's children naturally understood, and they knew who Zheng Rong was referring to as "that person" - their father Zhongli Yuancai's new love.

The property that belonged to them had been divided among them on the day of the division of the family.

Their father's behavior of changing a new lover at least once a month and at most half a year was not surprising to them.

He didn't expect his father to be so fond of that woman. The first time the head of the family proposed to hold a family meeting, his father dared to leave privately.

Wang Taixing's heart became more uneasy as he couldn't see Zhongli Yuancai for a long time. "Grandma, let's call grandpa."

Zheng Rong took out the phone and called Zhongli Yuancai.

"Where are you?"

"Are you...crazy?" Zheng Rong looked at the people around him, stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, and whispered.

"If you make the head of the family unhappy, you can solve it yourself." Zheng Rong hung up the phone angrily and called his eldest son to whisper in his ear.

"Your father was in a car accident and was hospitalized..." Zheng Rong said impatiently after hanging up the phone. She never thought that Zhongli Yuancai would be so unreliable.

"Just ask for leave from the head of the family when the time comes." Zhongli Yuancai's eldest son Zhongli Hua was not as worried as Zheng Rong.

After all, the head of the family is younger than them now, and they don't need to please her for the next head of the family.

Just like yesterday, the agreed time exceeded an hour, and Zhongli Yu still did not show up.

Everyone's patience was exhausted in the two waits, and with Zhongli Yuancai's absence, some people were ready to leave.

The bodyguards next to them did not stop them from leaving. Just when they walked to the door, Zhongli Butler appeared at the same position as yesterday.

"Master, I can't get up today, so I'm postponing the meeting until 7 o'clock tomorrow night." After saying this, Butler Zhongli was about to turn around and leave, without stopping those people from leaving at all.

"Butler, what does the head of the family have to do to hold this meeting?" Someone couldn't help but ask. This was a waste of their time every day, leaving them unable to do anything and just wait.

Housekeeper Zhongli stopped and turned to look at the person who came, and explained, "The head of the family fell in love and did not want to manage the company. She wanted to hold a meeting to choose an acting head of the house. If the acting head of the house does a good job, she will give up everything between the head of the house and the Zhongli family. To the acting head of the family.”

Zhong Liyu's parents and brothers and sisters looked very ugly when they heard this.

Zhong Liyu's father, Zhong Li Yuantai, said, "We have something to do with the head of the family. She doesn't want to manage the company. We can help. How can we change the head of the family so easily. She was specially chosen by the previous head of the family."

"Second uncle, what you said is that the previous head of the family was the last head of the family, and the current head of the family is Xiao Yu. Whatever she wants, we must obey her orders."

"Second brother, you often say that the head of the family must not go against his words. Don't go against what Xiao Yu says now."

Everyone's eyes were filled with greed, and they felt that Zhong Liyu was a fool for actually giving up the wealth he had acquired, which was unparalleled in the country.

Even if you have always been the acting owner, as long as you can manage the company, you still have to worry about having no money to spend.

Most of them had accepted their fate in the company before, hoping to perform well in the company and strive to win the favor of the family head and be appointed as the next head of the family.

So when Zhong Liyu took over as the head of the family and took over everything in the company in accordance with family rules, their positions had been taken back and they could only spend their assets every day.

Only a small number of people did not agree with everything the Zhongli family did from the beginning, and never thought about taking over everything the Zhongli family did. Their careers did not give up because Zhongliyu took over as the head of the family.

"The family meeting will decide on the rules for selecting the acting head of the family. No one is allowed to take leave without special reasons. If one person does not come without any reason, it means that the whole family has given up." After Butler Zhong Li said this, he turned and returned to Zhong Liyu's room.
