C1109 Zhuge Yuyan's Helplessness(1)
"Exercise? Hmph, if Ah Dou can't be helped up, what's the use of exercising again?" Zhuge Yuyan sneered and said, "Let him deal with Fann Binn? Do you think he can do it? Don't fall and be covered in dirt. Just like me, he has been stripped of all his power!"
" Yuyan, how can you say that? I know you have complaints in your heart, but that's your brother. He will inherit the entire Zhuge family in the future!" Zhuge Dongfang couldn't help but get angry, "I know your ability, a guy that even you can't deal with. It's useless for your brother to go. But it's different this time. At least your brother isn't like you. He only knows how to do it alone! He will find allies, but you only know how to do it!"
" Allies? Don't look for a motley crew." Zhuge Yuyan sneered, "I know that little brother of mine who only knows how to scheme but has no concept of the big picture. Since father trusts him so much, we can let him go and try."
Zhuge Dongfang shook his head and refuted, "It's different this time. This time someone took the initiative to contact him. He's a very powerful figure in Beihai City. We should cooperate with him. Even if your brother can't complete the mission, I'm afraid he won't lose too badly. You said your brother likes to play tricks? But you still use some underhanded tricks? It's fine if you get rid of your opponent, but it just so happens that he hasn't been taken care of yet. What do you think..."
"Yes, I admit that I used some tricks. But that is not something that can be forced!" Zhuge Yuyan's eyes were cold and there was a hint of helplessness and sadness in them. "It is precisely because that opponent is too powerful that I am unable to use any other means to deal with him. That was why she had no choice but to use this underhanded method. It is precisely because of this that I suffered such a crushing defeat, right? If you think that your younger brother can do it, then let him try."
" That's not what you need to worry about. The Elders Guild has already decided that you have other work arrangements. " Zhuge Dongfang then looked at the beautiful and moving Zhuge Yuyan. He smiled softly and said, "Yuyan, you have also grown up. A man should marry a woman should marry a man. What do you think about the young master of the Great Elder? His family background is good and he is also very good-looking. Furthermore, he... "
"Father! My marriage is decided by myself. Before I fall in love with a man, I won't trouble you!" Zhuge Yuyan's tone was extremely cold, as if there was some anger mixed within, directly interrupting her father's words.
"Hmph!" Zhuge Dongfang snorted and frowned, "Yuyan, tell me honestly, do you have a partner in your heart that you like?"
"I..." Zhuge Yuyan wanted to say something but stopped herself. She replied coldly, "This has nothing to do with father."
"It would be strange if it had nothing to do with me!" Zhuge Dongfang was furious and pointed at himself, "I am your father, so I have the right to interfere in all your matters! Marriage is not child's play. It's formed by the words of the matchmaker of the parents. You can't make the decision on your own! You're my daughter. I can let you mess around on other matters, but I absolutely can't on this matter! "
Zhuge Yuyan listened coldly to her father's words and suddenly interrupted with a cold sneer. " Why? Is it because my father stipulated that I must marry someone with the surname Zhuge? Does my father still want that tragedy to repeat itself and make me like a big brother?"
" You... " Zhuge Dongfang pointed at his daughter, his fingertips trembling. He was obviously trying his best to suppress his anger. After a heavy sigh, he lamented. "Yuyan... I am not forcing you, but letting you know... The bloodline of the Zhuge family is very important! His father only wanted to keep the bloodline of the Zhuge family intact according to the instructions of his ancestors. Can't even that be possible?"
"Is that so? Why haven't I read any ancient records of the Zhuge family that require interracial marriage?" Zhuge Yuyan seemed to have some disdain and finally said excitedly, "Father, do you think that no one knows about the hatred in your heart? If it wasn't because of Grandfather, if it wasn't because Grandfather didn't get the woman he loved, he would have been depressed. If you don't get the love of your father and hold a grudge, you will always ask us to do this. Must we marry in the clan? I am not a father, nor am I a grandfather, I have the right to be free to fall in love... I... "
" Pa!! "Before Zhuge Yuyan could finish, Zhuge Dongfang could no longer hold back the anger in his heart. He directly waved his hand and gave his daughter a fierce slap! This slap was not only loud, it also caused the veil on her face to fall off. It revealed Zhuge Yuyan's beautiful face!
Feeling the burning pain on her face, Zhuge Yuyan's beautiful eyes were filled with determination. She gritted her teeth and said, "If it wasn't for Big Brother violating your request back then, he would have eloped with a woman outside. Would you have been so angry that you asked me to go out and find him? If you hadn't intentionally bewitched me back then and said some false charges against Big Brother... Would I have made him do it? If you hadn't ordered me back then to make a move against Big Brother who refused to come back, would I have personally ordered my brother to be killed!? I, I will regret it for the rest of my life... Will I be in pain for the rest of my life..."
As she spoke, tears rolled down from Zhuge Yuyan's beautiful eyes. Her expression was very painful. She was very sad. Perhaps, after all the strong exterior had been peeled off, only her true self was left. Suffering, sadness, the resentment and helplessness in her heart... Who could she tell, and who could she vent it on?
Looking at Zhuge Yuyan who was crying in grief, the fury in Zhuge Dongfang's heart seemed to gradually subside. He looked at his daughter with an ashen face and said solemnly, "No matter what, I'm doing this for your own good, for the sake of the bloodline of the Zhuge family's descendant. No matter how much you hate me, this father of yours, I will only allow you to marry in the clan. You must understand this. This is a principle that cannot be changed!"
Zhuge Yuyan did not reply. Her eyes were dull and she did not want to talk about this with her father anymore. Or rather, she simply could not forgive her father on this matter.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Alright, if you are not willing to marry now, then... I won't force you either. After all, you're still young, and I don't want to make our father and daughter unhappy because of your marriage. " Zhuge Dongfang saw that his daughter was silent, so he took the initiative to change the topic. He sighed lightly and said, "During the time you were in the family, something big that concerned the interests of our family was about to happen. In the middle of April, the Global Weapons Exhibition will be held in Liaoshen City in the northeast. At that time, all the arms dealers in the world will gather in H Country. "
"As for my race, after a series of exchanges, we finally let the military decide to purchase a batch of advanced foreign fighter aircraft and warships contracts. And... We will hand them over to the military enterprise under the Zhuge family as the intermediary. This was a huge transaction, and the profits from it were very high. Moreover, we can also let the foreign arms dealers introduce the production line according to the terms of introduction. This is also a huge leap for the military industry."
Zhuge Yuyan gradually calmed down and wiped away the tears on her beautiful face. She said coldly, "Father, I have said many times that there is no autonomous research and development. It is very difficult for the military enterprise to survive. In the past, Zhuge family dominated the military industry. It could be used to imitate foreign weapons. But now, the appearance of the Soaring Dragon Group has directly threatened our foundation. If we continue to follow this pattern, our family's arms business will really be finished! "
" Do you know how powerful the military research and development ability of the Soaring Dragon Group is? It doesn't matter if you don't know, but you have to admit the data. Currently, among the four top firearms orders, the military light tanks, missiles, airplanes and warships... At least half of the orders from the Soaring Dragon Group have been snatched away, right? "
"Look at what our military enterprise produces! Rifles, bullets, portable anti-tank missiles, these things have low profits. The production is huge. If this continues, even the only thing that we are still insisting on producing... The 3rd generation fighter that was brought in from E country's production line is about to fall behind. You are still counting on foreign countries. This will not work at all. "
"Of course I know what you're talking about, but what can we do? I don't know why the Soaring Dragon Group has such a powerful weapon research and development ability, but at least the Zhuge family doesn't have that ability. We can only rely on the sale of weapons to earn a low price, then use foreign technology to bring in copies and improve our weapons. "
" Our Zhuge family has a very large network of connections and very powerful authority. That's why we can get a share of the profits from the purchase of military weapons. Actually, you know all of this very well, so don't tell me anything about the Soaring Dragon Group anymore. " Zhuge Dongfang frowned and said," As for the Soaring Dragon Group, I think your brother will handle it. We aren't the only ones who want to deal with him. "
"We only want to get rid of our opponents, but we don't care about the development of our country. Is that really right?" Zhuge Yuyan said coldly, "The Soaring Dragon Group has an absolute influence on the interests of the Zhuge family. I don't deny that. I also won't deny that the Soaring Dragon Group is the greatest enemy of the Zhuge family, or even the enemy. "
"But in terms of the military technology and weapons of the country, without the Soaring Dragon Group... The military industry will return to a state of muddle-headedness, and the country will develop. Do you think it will work without a powerful military force? After my failure this time, I returned to my family and thought about many things. Father... I suggest that we cooperate with the Soaring Dragon Group? They have the technology and we have the connections. Both sides can totally complement each other. Once..."
"Enough!" Zhuge Dongfang scolded and glared at Zhuge Yuyan. "Yuyan, don't forget that you used your power to sell all the shares of Soaring Dragon Group. I haven't settled the score with you yet. Now you want to talk to me about the cooperation between the two groups? That is a dream! What kind of family is the Zhuge family? He is just a little kid, how can he cooperate with our family? You don't even need to think about this! Even if our Zhuge family doesn't do the arms business, we can still hold on. We don't need the pity of others!"
"This isn't a matter of pity or not. It's a matter of whether or not we can develop our country!" Zhuge Yuyan shook her head helplessly and said, "I really don't understand. Could it be that for the sake of the family's interests, you can really disregard the country? Father, you are first the H People, then the patriarch of the Zhuge family! "
