chapter 13 I control my own life!

"Father!" Hazel Tang rushed over upon hearing the cry, only to find her father lying on the ground, coughing up blood. Despite her numerous grievances towards him, she felt a wave of pity. After all, Benjamin Tang was her father, and this time, he had sincerely apologized to her, softening her heart a little. "Uncle, my father has always treated you with genuine sincerity. The family business that you both manage has been losing money every year, yet my father, as the family head, never said a word. He even gives you a substantial bonus every year. Moreover, whenever there's something good happening in the family, my father always thinks of you. Even the villa you live in is the best in the family. And you're real brothers. Why would you treat my father like this?" Hazel Tang glared at Jerry Tang, her voice filled with anger. "Humph! Your father isn't treating me well, he's just being weak! This world operates on survival of the fittest. Even if we're blood brothers, I, Jerry Tang, have to compete for the position of Tang family head. Why should he hold that position? My fate should be in my own hands!" Jerry Tang had torn apart his relationship with his older brother, Benjamin Tang, so he no longer held back in his words. "You can actually apply the theory of ‘survival of the fittest’ to your own family? You can actually cover up your own lack of ability, stubbornness, and selfishness with the phrase 'my fate should be in my own hands'? This shows how much of a failure you are as a person!" Hazel Tang didn't mince her words. "You little brat, you're sharp-tongued! But soon you won't be able to speak at all! Since I've said this much, can I let you both live through tonight? Once you're gone, I'll be the head of the Tang family!" Jerry Tang turned to Daoist Huang He and said, "You've been a great help, Daoist. Kill them both, and once it's done, I'll reward you with eight billion as payment!" Daoist Huang He nodded slightly. His greedy eyes ran up and down Hazel Tang as he said, "This little girl is quite pretty. I've been cultivating as a Daoist all my life and still remain pure, but today, seeing this little girl, I feel a stir. I wonder if this little girl can be given to me, so that I can take her back and train her as my personal Daoist disciple, serving me for a lifetime?" "Haha, as long as you like her, take her! Have a good time tormenting this brat. It's also a way to vent my anger for my son, who was beaten to a pulp by Ferrid Chu!" Jerry Tang laughed, showing no hint of compassion for his own niece. "In that case, I won't hold back!" Daoist Huang He's eyes gleamed with lust as he advanced towards Hazel Tang. He planned to subdue her first, and then deal with Benjamin Tang. "Jerry Tang, you old pervert, Grandpa is here!" Suddenly, a voice as cold and forceful as a tolling bell echoed into the room, full of intense fury. "Boom!" In the next second, the living room door was kicked open, and Ferrid Chu burst in! "Ferrid Chu?" Jerry Tang's eyes widened, his expression one of extreme astonishment. When he confirmed that the person before him was Ferrid Chu, he stiffened completely! Someone had actually survived an assassination attempt by the killers from the Hong Gang? "Don't call my name. It's irritating." Ferrid Chu threw a punch directly into Jerry Tang's chest. "Damn it!" Jerry Tang screamed in terror, flying several meters before crashing into the wall. Then he fell heavily to the ground. In an instant, he closed his eyes. Although he still had some breath left, Ferrid Chu's punch had turned him into a vegetable. "Dad, are you okay?" Hazel Tang slowly helped Benjamin Tang up, her voice full of concern. "He's just suffered some heavy external injuries and minor internal injuries. With some restorative medicine, he'll recover in a few days." Ferrid Chu glanced at Benjamin Tang and said calmly. "Ferrid Chu, thank you. This is the second time you've saved our Chu family. And also, I haven't had a chance to thank you for saving my wife's life last time." Benjamin Tang said sincerely. "Also..." He turned to look at his younger brother, Jerry Tang. "Thank you for leaving my younger brother with a breath. I know with your strength, it would have been easy to kill him with one punch." Ferrid Chu nodded slightly. He had indeed held back some of his strength when he punched Jerry Tang. "Ah, I've been too soft-hearted, and what did I gain? In the end, it only hurt my daughter." Benjamin Tang said sadly. "Some people are born cold-blooded. Your kindness not only won't earn their gratitude, but it will also make them think you're weak and easy to bully. This personality of yours not only led to the tragedy between you and Jerry Tang, but also caused a lot of suffering for Hazel." Ferrid Chu didn't mince his words, hitting the nail on the head. "Yes, I've been too indulgent. I didn't gain anything by doing so! Instead, it led to my daughter being expelled from the family, and I don't deserve to be your father, Hazel!" Benjamin Tang's eyes welled up as he held his daughter's hand. "Daughter, I'm sorry. Not only did I fail to stand up for you at critical moments, I also listened to them and kicked you out of the family. I'm not worthy to be your father." "Dad, it's all in the past now. The current outcome is good, and no one will interfere with you managing the family anymore." Hazel Tang's heart was filled with mixed emotions, but she pretended to be calm as she comforted her father. After dealing with Daoist Huang He's body and having the unconscious Jerry Tang taken away, Hazel Tang turned to Ferrid Chu and said, "Ferrid Chu, there's something I'd like to discuss with you." "Oh? What is it?" Ferrid Chu was puzzled. "You don't need to discuss anything with me. Whatever you do, I'll support you." ..
