"Cough! Cough!" Gil choked and coughed loudly.
Vin immediately approached and created a cup of water in his hand. Vin gives Gil a drink and checks on his brother.
"What's wrong, Brother Gil? Do you feel pain somewhere? Say it!" Vin asked, panicked. He looked at Gil with a worried look.
After drinking the holy water given by Vin, Gil continues to feel good. He doesn't have a cough anymore.
Gil smiled at Vin who looked worried. Gil patted Vin on the shoulder.
"Calm down, Little Brother! I'm fine right now. So, don't worry!" Gil spoke, softly.
"Actually, what did Felius give you earlier, Brother Gil?" Vin asked, curious.
Gil shook his head.
"I don't know myself either, Vin. But, I hope it's not poison or anything."
"If you experience something strange to yourself, tell me immediately, Brother Gil! If it's poison, I will immediately find an antidote," said Vin, so seriously. He was really worried about his brother at the moment.
Hearing Vin's words, Gil smiled again.
"Okay, Little Brother! I'll tell you if I get sick."
They were silent for a moment. After that, Vin suddenly hugged Gil's stomach. Vin even cried while hugging his brother's body. He was very afraid that what Prince Felius had given him turned out to be poison.
Gil returned his sister's hug. He patted Vin on the back a few times, trying to calm him down.
"Calm down, Little Brother! I'm fine now! So, don't cry anymore, okay?" Gil said to the brother he loved very much.
Vin just shook his head weakly. He hugged his brother tighter and tighter.
***
-Beijing, China-
There was a big scandal in the big property company, Zhang Group.
Do not know who spread the news, which in the end caused the company Zhang Group to stumble into a scandal.
Suddenly, Zhang Sifeng's identity was spread to the public media. The print media said that 'Zhang Sifeng, the President Director of Zhang Group, is actually Mr. Zhang Minghao's illegitimate son with a Geisha. And there are still descendants with the Yakuza leader from Japan. His hand lines are definitely not clean, and will bring bad luck to Zhang Group in the future.'
The shareholders demanded an explanation from Mr. Zhang.
How can Mr. Zhang recommend the position of President Director to a child of a Geisha, who now knows that Sifeng is also the grandson of a leader of a yakuza organization, an illegal mafia in the fields of prostitution, gambling and smuggling from Japan.
Zhang Yushen's face looked furious. He asked Manager Huo to stop the hoax news spreading in the public, unfortunately it was too late. The news had spread too fast. Zhang Yushen was confused about this kind of situation.
The stock winners may sue to fire Zhang Sifeng as President Director. Maybe they are afraid that Sifeng's identity will really affect the development of the company and the selling price of the shares.
Zhang Yushen entered the meeting room with unsteady steps. This was very difficult for Yushen. He couldn't bear to see the gazes of all the gods of directors condescending to his little brother Sifeng.
Zhang Yushen sat at the very end of the chair in this meeting room. All eyes of the board of directors turned to him, demanding an explanation.
Yushen started the meeting discussing the Zhang Group Scandal. Yushen represented his father.
"We're sorry for this incident! Really, the news spread in the media is a big mistake! Zhang Sifeng is President Director Zhang Minghao's legitimate son with a good woman.
"Many may underestimate the Geisha profession. However, they are actually just good female workers. It's not what the general public thinks. So, Sifeng is the legitimate son of Grand Master Zhang Minghao." Yushen stopped his speech only to take a deep breath.
"Just like me, Zhang Sifeng is Father Zhang's son from another wife." Yushen continued.
After Yushen said that, there was a boisterous whisper from the board of directors. Don't know what they are discussing even in the middle of a meeting like this.
After a while, one of the shareholders raised his hand.
"We apologize in advance, Childe Zhang. However, we want you as President Director, Childe Zhang," said Mr. Xie, one of the shareholders.
"Yes, we don't want because of this scandal the stock price will drop drastically in the stock market." Mr. Chang chimed in, and was greeted with approval by all the board of directors present.
Now, Zhang Yushen was in a difficult and confusing situation.
How would Yushen tell his brother about this difficult situation?
Moreover, these few days Sifeng had become temperamental since returning from Japan. Whose anger can explode at any time.
Brakk!!
The meeting room door opened very loudly from the outside
Everyone is shocked. All eyes were on the wide open door.
Slowly, the man entered at a leisurely but sure pace. The meeting room became chaotic. The man's arrival made everyone there whisper, I don't know what they were whispering.
"A-Feng!" Yushen shouted, no less surprised to see his younger brother suddenly appear in the meeting room. He saw all eyes in the meeting room, now on Sifeng with various expressions. Most of them, many smiled disdainfully towards Sifeng.
At this moment, it felt like Yushen was eager to hide Sifeng behind his body, to avoid all those condescending gazes. The gazes of the shareholders on Sifeng really hurt Yushen.
Yushen looked sadly at Sifeng who was a few steps away from approaching him.
"A-Feng~! What's wrong? Why are you here, Little Brother?" Yushen spoke softly, but Sifeng didn't respond.
Zhang Sifeng now turned around instead, and stood next to Yushen. They both stood at the end of the conference table.
Sifeng took a deep breath, before finally taking out a piece of paper from under the suit Sifeng was wearing.
Sifeng smiled at the shareholders, though the people still looked down on him.
"Thank you to the entire Board of Directors! During this time, you have chosen me as the President Director of this Zhang Group company. At first, I felt it was inappropriate. However, Zhang's father insisted and recommended me. However, after the news spread, At this point, I feel that I don't deserve this position." Sifeng spoke.
Then, Sifeng placed the piece of paper that was inside the brown envelope on the table. The tail of Sifeng's eyes glanced at Yushen at this time.
"And this is my resignation letter. I'm sure someone has been waiting for my resignation letter to be on his desk." Sifeng spoke sarcastically. Sifeng still glanced sharply at Yushen. He didn't seem to like Yushen at the moment. Sifeng displayed a look of hatred towards his brother.
Zhang Yushen did not understand what Sifeng meant. From Sifeng's words earlier, it was as if Sifeng was accusing Yushen of spreading the scandal. Did Sifeng suspect Yushen at this time?
After handing Yushen his resignation letter, Sifeng left the meeting room. He walked calmly, but his shoulders shook with disappointment. Sifeng's eyes filled with tears. He looked very disappointed because he thought that it was his own brother, Yushen who spread his identity to the public.
Yushen was sitting limp at the moment. Yushen looked down at the piece of paper in front of him.
Then, Yushen made up his mind and closed the door tightly.
"Is this what you want, huh? Has Zhang Sifeng ever been negligent in carrying out his duties as president director? Answer! I really don't understand the way you all think!" shouted Zhang Yushen.
Zhang Yushen tore up the letter. He asked Manager Huo to take over the meeting.
Yushen immediately ran out of the room, leaving the shareholders who now bowed their heads as if in regret.
***
Yushen continued to run to catch up with Sifeng's wide stride. Yushen saw Sifeng in one of the halls leading to the elevator.
Yushen ran faster. When he was already behind Sifeng, Yushen tugged on Sifeng's arm. Sifeng automatically turned back because of the tug.
Yushen continued to hold Sifeng's arm from leaving.
"Wait, A-Feng! What's wrong with you! Why do you seem to stay away from me all this time, huh? Tell your brother everything, A-Feng!" Yushen said with his breath still ragged from running.
"Huh, big brother? Do you still deserve to be called 'brother' after doing all this to me, huh?!"
"What do you mean, A-Feng?!"
"Don't act so ignorant, Young Master Yushen! You're the one to spread the disgrace of your own little brother to the media, aren't you? Does such a person still deserve to be called 'big brother', huh?!" snapped Sifeng, right in Yushen's face.
"What? You accuse me of being behind all this scandal? How narrow-minded you are, Zhang Sifeng!" said Yushen.
Zhang Yushen smiled, sad. Although in his heart, Yushen felt very disappointed. How could Sifeng accuse him like this? Yushen thought.
Sifeng punched Yushen in the face, full of anger. Sifeng tightly gripped Yushen's collar.
"Who else if not you, Zhang Yushen?! Only you know my true identity!"
