"This is humiliation." Chu Zhiyuan's fists clenched slightly.
Chu Daxing glanced at him—then smiled faintly.
"But… It's not necessarily a bad thing."
Chu Zhiyuan paused. "What do you mean?"
"Think about it," Chu Daxing said calmly. "Chu Jing may have given up her shares, but as long as she remains in the family, she's still a variable."
His gaze sharpened slightly.
"If she married into a powerful family, that would be a real problem for you."
"But now?"
He chuckled.
"A man with no background… no power… Is far easier to control."
Chu Zhiyuan's eyes lit up instantly.
"I see…"
A grin slowly appeared on his face.
"You're amazing, Dad."
"Of course," Chu Daxing smirked. "Who do you think taught you?"
"But… will Chu Jing accept it?"
Chu Daxing's expression turned indifferent.
"Of course not."
He shrugged.
"But that gives us the perfect reason to suppress her further."
"Maybe even remove her from the Chu Family completely."
