Chapter 571 Tan You

It was a good thing that Shao Xue could return to the Shao Family smoothly.

After she went back, the real drama of the Shao Family began.

Gu Changle and Ding Ali had their own axes to grind, while Shao Xue seemed to be a free outsider. However, as a matter of fact, Shao Xue was inseparable from everyone in everything.

In the first week after Shao Xue went home, Gu Changle’s condition did not improve.

However, Ding Ali, who took good care of Gu Changle, began to trust Gu Changle and gradually adapted to life in the Shao Family.

In that week, Gu Changle thought Ding Ali was an eyesore.

However, Gu Changle felt extremely jealous when she thought that Gu Yi and Miaomiao were the Shao Family’s heirs.

Gu Changle had to temporarily bear with Ding Ali to get rid of Gu Changge’s daughter and son.

Gu Changle also repeatedly asked Ding Ali to spend more time taking care of Gu Yi and Miaomiao.

Ding Ali listened to Gu Changle, whom she thought was a dying person, very much.

Ding Ali also tried hard to get Gu Yi and Miaomiao to accept her and get closer to her.

Those were Ding Ali’s thoughts, but Gu Yi and Miaomiao had no good feelings for her.

Gu Yi and Miaomiao didn’t respond to Ding Ali’s proactive and friendly actions, let alone have a good impression.

Ding Ali had no choice but to give priority to her safe birthing instead of pleasing these two children for now.

On the weekend, Shao Xue was on vacation and took Gu Yi and Miaomiao to Disneyland.

Before leaving, she told Song Yunxuan about it.

Song Yunxuan was happy after hearing it. Immediately, she planned to put off her work on that day to see Gu Yi and Miaomiao.

However, God failed her wish.

That day, she happened to have a critical appointment to attend.

When Song Yunxuan asked Mei Qi to modify her schedule, Mei Qi reminded her, “Manager Song, you are going to deal with the Tan Family’s share transfer agreement today.”

Hearing Mei Qi’s words, Song Yunxuan knocked on the table with her fingers and pursed her mouth, “This work really cannot be postponed. We will go to meet them at the agreed time.”

Hearing Song Yunxuan’s words, Mei Qi nodded.

Song Yunxuan wanted to see her son and daughter very much.

But it was really not suitable to meet them now.

She pursed her mouth, looked at the agreed time, and thought about what to say when she met the Tan Family’s master in the afternoon.

Mei Qi gave Song Yunxuan the Tan Family’s information he had compiled.

Song Yunxuan read the information and went to the Tan Family that afternoon.

However, the family was in mourning.

The old Mrs. Tan had passed away.

Song Yunxuan saw the young master of the Tan Family after she went to the mourning hall to express condolences.

The new master was a young lady, about 28 or 29 years old. Song Yunxuan heard a lot of gossip in the hall.

Song Yunxuan had thought that people were gossiping about her.

However, she didn’t expect that all the gossip was about the Tan Family’s young master, Tan You.

When Tan You saw Song Yunxuan, she said without emotion, with a pair of pure eyes, “Miss Song, I will talk to you about business later.”

After saying that, Tan You motioned the maid beside her to take Song Yunxuan to another room to wait.

The maid softly asked Song Yunxuan to leave the mourning hall.

It seemed that Tan You didn’t feel sad about old Mrs. Tan’s death.

On the way to the guest room, Song Yunxuan saw some Tan Family’s relatives whispering in the courtyard.

Song Yunxuan was not an extremely quiet person. Therefore, after staying in the guest room for a while, Song Yunxuan left the room and walked to the courtyard.

Tan’s house was not in the city but the country.

Song Yunxuan had spent two hours from Yuncheng to here to meet Tan You.

The yard was great and big. Not far from the yard were the lotus pond and rice fields, and there was a small village around the lotus pond.

The air in the country was fresh. What was rare was the convenient transportation here. The surrounding green plants were also very neatly trimmed.

Outside the courtyard was a road leading to another small village. At noon, students in school uniforms would ride by the yard on this road.

Song Yunxuan walked along the cobblestone road in the courtyard.

When she walked to the pond in the yard, Song Yunxuan heard a man say, “Tan You is old Mrs. Tan’s granddaughter. She is not eligible to inherit the Tan Family’s property.”

Song Yunxuan listened to these words indifferently.

Before, old Mrs. Tan and Tan You had jointly managed the Tan Family. Old Mrs. Tan had a son and a daughter.

The daughter was Tan You’s mother, and the son was a government official in Harbor City. Old Mrs. Tan was sour-tempered and didn’t get along well with her daughter-in-law.

The daughter-in-law was beautiful and the only daughter of a politician. She kept talking ill of her mother-in-law to her husband, which caused their bad relationship.

Tan You’s mother divorced her father and remarried later. Tan You’s step-father didn’t like Tan You living with them.

Therefore, Tan You’s mother fostered her in the natal family and changed her last name to Tan.

Tan You had lived in her grandma’s house since she was three years old. Now she was twenty-eight years old. It had been twenty-five years.

Old Mrs. Tan watched her granddaughter grow up and liked her very much. Before her death, she made a will that her granddaughter would inherit all of her legacies after her death.

Tan You worked in the Tan Family’s company after graduation. Her grandmother also deliberately trained her.

Before Old Mrs. Tan became seriously ill, Tan You could shoulder the responsibility alone.

Therefore, the collateral relatives questioned Tan You’s eligibility for succession but did not dare to say anything.

They could only talk uselessly in secret.

Song Yunxuan listened to those people by the rockery beside the pond.

They didn’t notice Song Yunxuan’s existence and discussed it more hotly.

“Tan was not Tan You’s original surname. Tan Jiao deliberately pushed Tan You to old Mrs. Tan’s side. That led to old Mrs. Tan giving the entire Tan Family to Tan You.”

“What can you do about it? When old Mrs. Tan was ill, her son and daughter-in-law came back with their son for the Tan Family’s property. It was too late at that time. Old Mrs. Tan had made a will. The son and daughter-in-law could do nothing.”

“Be that as it may, if Tan You’s uncle refuses to give up, she will have a hard time at the Tan Family.”

“It is hardly possible. Tan You is not a common girl.”

“I heard that Tan You is in control of the Tan Family and decides important things after old Mrs. Tan’s death, right?”

“Yes. After all, Tan You is the most powerful person in the Tan Family.”

While those people were talking, they felt sorry for old Mrs. Tan’s son.

As Song Yunxuan listened to their discussion, she felt boring, shook her head, and turned around to leave.

As soon as she turned around, she saw Tan You looking at her at the guest room door.

Song Yunxuan was stunned. Then, she smiled and walked to Tan You, “Miss Tan, it’s not easy for you to be the new master.”

Song Yunxuan’s words were inappropriate.

However, she did not deliberately avoid this topic.

Hearing Song Yunxuan’s words, Tan You coldly looked at those who were gossiping by the pond and said, “They overrate their abilities and they will fail.”

Song Yunxuan was interested in Tan You’s words. She looked at Tan You and said, “You seem pretty sure, Miss Tan.”

“It is doomed. What can the group of ants shake?”

Hearing Tan You’s conceited words, Song Yunxuan couldn’t help but smile.

Song Yunxuan had seen all kinds of women in business circles, cruel, hypocritical, and indecisive.

It was rare to see an arrogant woman like Tan You.

After they entered the guest room, Tan You sat on the tatami opposite the table and poured Longjing tea for Song Yunxuan. Tan You started the topic first, “Miss Song, if I guessed right, the purpose of your trip is to get Shao’s shares that I hold.”

Song Yunxuan felt easy that Tan You was willing to come straight to the point.

So, Song Yunxuan nodded, “You’re right.”

Tan You smiled, “Why do you ask me? My grandmother just passed away. Do you think I will happily transfer the shares that my grandmother cherished very much during her lifetime?”

“The Shao Family is different from the past. The shares you own may not bring profits for you.”

Hearing Song Yunxuan’s words, Tan You took a sip of tea and smiled, “My grandmother trusted what Gu Changge left behind.”

Old Mrs. Tan was very discerning. When Gu Changge appeared at the Gu’s company meeting for the first time, old Mrs. Tan believed that Gu Changge was not an ordinary person.

After that, regardless of the difficulty, old Mrs. Tan supported Gu Changge.

And old Mrs. Tan had always supported Shao Tianze after Gu Changge’s death.

It was because old Mrs. Tan didn’t know that Shao Tianze killed Gu Changge.

She regarded Shao Tianze as Gu Changge’s beloved husband and fully supported and helped him.

If old Mrs. Tan had been alive, Song Yunxuan’s share acquisition today would have been difficult.

However, coincidently, old Mrs. Tan died before she arrived.

The person in charge of the Tan Family changed. The new master’s attitude towards Shao Tianze should be different.

Therefore, Song Yunxuan believed that it was easier to acquire shares from Tan You than from old Mrs. Tan.

Song Yunxuan looked at Tan You and said, “Your grandmother believed in it, but you may not. And the Gu Family no longer belongs to Gu Changge, but Shao Tianze.”

Tan You smiled, “You seem confident, Miss Song.”

Song Yunxuan stopped speaking in a roundabout way and said straightforwardly, “What do you want?”

Tan You looked at Song Yunxuan, blinked, and said, “If you get my shares, Shao Tianze might be defeated little by little. Well, I want a lot of things.”
