“Short sighted idiots!!”
Di Zhong slammed his cane on the table, causing all of the cups to break from the impact.
Di Jingchen smiled as he said, “Grandfather, you don’t have to be so angry. Ranle is a good girl. Why would she plagiarize another designer’s gown? It must be Jing Jie who did it, which is why she looks so surprised. If young brother has enough confidence to bring her to the Chole Contest, it must mean that they are confident in Di Ranle.”
Di Zhong stared at Di Jingchen, who seemed to be standing up for Di Jingan and his family, but in reality, the mischievous look in his eyes had already sold him out.
Di Zhong felt bitter deep inside.
This was also why he did not give up his throne, even when he was already 91 years old. This was the reason why he wanted to pass the throne to his elder son, Di Xuren, instead of his second son, Di Xuheng.
He always had expectations from his elder son, but not so much for his second son. However, his elder son ended up marrying a poor woman who came from the ruins instead of the woman that he wanted for his wife.
Even so, he could still allow his elder son to take the throne. However, peasants were peasants after all. They were not educated about the hierarchy and would never know the importance of a person’s family background when it came to the royal family.
That shameless woman took his favorite son away from him and left his useless second son with him.
His second son wasn’t good at anything else, other than assassinating others.
Not only did Di Xuheng marry the candidate that Di Zhong chose for his elder son, Di Xuheng even killed his elder son’s wife. This indirectly caused his elder son to break ties with him and also the entire Di family.
As of now, his second son was in his sickbed and the only thing that he left behind were his other two sons, Di Jingcheng and Di Jingan. Neither of them were good at anything else, other than trying to throw him off the throne.
They couldn’t even see if they were good enough to be King of Country B.
Di Zhong was no longer angry. He only wanted Di Jingxuan and his family to return to Country B for them to take the throne. If he wouldn’t do so, the royal family of Country B would be over. The hierarchy that his ancestors left for him would be destroyed by him. He would never allow for such things to happen.
As for now, the Di family in Country Z was already the richest family in the country. Other than that, they also had the Xie family as their support. Even if he tried to use foreign affairs to bring them back, it would be quite impossible.
How was he going to bring Di Jingxuan back?
When Di Jingchen saw how his grandfather was ignoring him, he felt much better than when his grandfather was feeling angry.
Di Jingan’s abilities wasn’t compatible with his ambitions. He never saw Di Jingan as a threat to the throne. However, Di Jingan wasn’t only ambitious, but evil as well. He was the kind where he would destroy the things that he couldn’t get.
He may not be able to be a good king, but he definitely had the power to destroy the royal family of Country B.
Therefore, his grandfather would definitely consider Di Jingchen.
This was a good opportunity for Di Jingan to embarrass himself in front of the whole world. It was a chance for his grandfather to completely lose hope in Di Jingan. Why wouldn’t he help?
When Di Jingchen saw how his grandfather was staring at the competition, he smiled.
Suddenly…
“Contact the embassy in Country I. I’ll be heading over soon.”
“Huh?” Di Jingchen was caught off guard. “Grandfather, what are you going to do there?”
Di Zhong stared at Di Jingchen and asked, “Do I have to report to you about what I want to do?”
