President, Please Be Careful
319

A hint of frustration appeared on the former master's face. He did not continue with the following words. Zhao Youlin knew that in her heart.

The old man had the intention to cultivate and train Zhao Youlin so that he could stay at home and become the heir of the Zhao family.

Unfortunately, Zhao Youlin met Mu Tingfeng, and she fell in love with him. In the end, she even went to the level of drugging Mu Tingfeng, conceiving her child and marrying into the Mu family.

Zhao Youlin had previously performed a series of actions which made her extremely disappointed. He had crushed the expectations of the former teacher to cultivate him to become his successor like pouring cold water on him.

Zhao Youlin sighed. He drowned his trailing voice as he said, "Grandfather, you must have been very disappointed back then, right? Therefore, you turn your attention to Zhao Youming.”

The former master grinned and glanced at Zhao Youlin. He said in a business manner, "When the kid took the initiative to bet with me at first, I really admired him. He knows how to use his power to gamble to achieve the things he wants. An entrepreneur should act like one. Unfortunately, then, I realized that he ... is not suitable for it.”

"Why? Is it because of this time..."

As he watched the video clip and searched for clues, Xiao Jingyao was with him. The problem was something big, therefore, it was very impossible for Xiao Jingyao to not tell Zhao Shunrong this matter. After Zhao Shunrong found out about it, it was equivalent to informing the former master indirectly.

When the former teacher remembered receiving the news that day, his expression darkened. He shook his head, "No, something else happened much earlier.”

"Much earlier?”

"Yes. Not long after the boy came to find me and bet with me, he got into Yorkshire college. Since I intend to cultivate and train him, I naturally assign someone to watch over him at any time.”

When Zhao Youlin heard this, she unwittingly tilted one of her eyebrows. He asked in a riddle, "Grandfather, you have someone following him?”

The former teacher was silent for a moment before he nodded and said, "I have someone to watch over him and send me weekly emails to tell me about his every move while abroad. However, this situation only lasted two weeks. The people watching her return to their home country.”

"Why?”

"I'm disappointed." The former master glanced at Zhao Youlin's puzzled expression and he sighed, "No doubt, he is indeed a smart kid. He has the passion and cunning that a businessman must have. However, he was so cunning that people were fed up with him.”

Zhao Youlin furrowed her brows. The incident piqued his interest. "Why is that? Did he do anything in his college days that disappointed you?”

There were some small changes to the former master's face. "The boy is very ambitious. He wanted to climb to the top of the mountain. He refused to be ordinary. Ever since he entered university, he tried very hard to keep moving forward. However, the Foreign Country is different from its home country. Although he might be considered the best talent in his domestic country, it might not be the same abroad. We must know that there is always someone better than us out there. When he was abroad, he learned that many people were better and more talented than him. He can't be extraordinary by relying on himself.”

"Because of that, he played a few tricks in order to defeat others?”

Zhao Youlin frowned. What does he mean by yes and no? Is that a yes or no?

The former master seemed to have read Zhao Youlin's mind. The corner of his lips curved upwards. He did not keep her in the dark for long, and he told her the various things that Zhao Youming had done abroad in a low voice.

"The boy was very young and inexperienced. Although he was smarter than most children, he had no experience. He wants to achieve success in a short time. So, he took the initiative and joined the school laboratory. He decided to make something of his own inside the school laboratory. While he keeps changing his way of doing things and working hard, he doesn't consider his own abilities. At that time, he was following a research project in the laboratory. Everything is at the final stage. If they succeeded, it would result in an unimaginable impact on the country or even the world. However, his arrogance had caused the project to fail miserably. And what scares us the most is..."

The former master's expression looked dark, and he said in a low voice, "The incident was actually his own fault. He was afraid of being punished for that, so he blamed his senior, who was in the same group as him and had taken good care of him. As a result, the person had to withdraw from the school.”

Entrepreneurs are most concerned with integrity. The commercial world is equated with the battlefield. There are never any old rivals or allies. However, they still had to keep some bottom lines to themselves. Zhao Youming's unethical behavior immediately lowered his own impression score on the former master's heart.

After hearing the former master's words, Zhao Youlin looked troubled. There is nothing wrong if a young man has the passion and motivation to ride. However, if he made a mistake due to his own desire for quick success and let others pay the price for him, this was too much.

"However, that's not what disappointed me the most. What disappointed me the most was that he participated in a big game since that incident as if nothing had happened. He has betrayed his best friend to win the competition. He handed over his friend's job to a competitor and deliberately made a wedge between the two. He fanned the flames so that his friend went to a competitor and made a fuss out of him. In the end, the two were disqualified while he, who was slightly inferior to the two, won the prize as he wished. He became the best student in school and created a sensational wave. Who would have thought all this was just an honor stolen.”

When the first incident occurred, it was understandable that he had done so due to his ignorance and young age. He unconsciously did so out of fear. However, the second incident that occurred was done intentionally.

When the former master recalled his initial thoughts after hearing such an incident, he was disappointed.

He was eager to find an heir who could inherit his foundation that had spent most of his life building.

His successor must be a capable man. But first, he must know how to behave himself.

If he had no moral values and often thought of using dirty tricks for personal gain, he would only cause trouble for the world regardless of how good he was. Such a person failed to live up to his expectations.

Zhao Youlin was speechless. Should he say that Zhao Youming deserves to be Li Hongyu's son? No, that's not true. Instead, she sighed over the fact that only Li Hongyu and Zhao Shuncheng could give birth to a son who defeated the duo.

"Everything happens for a reason. There are many similar things that happen later in life. Thus, I became very disappointed with him." The former master sighed. He raised his head up to forty-five degrees, and looked sad.

"But, fortunately, I still have you, Youlin," as the former master spoke, his excited gaze returned sparkling at once. He looked at Zhao Youlin as if looking at a delicious piece.

"Grandfather..." Zhao Youlin felt a chill creep up on her spine under the gaze of the former master. He felt that he had been arranged by this old fox once again.
