C141 - Long Hui

Chapter 141 - Long Hui

The temperature within the dining hall immediately plummeted. Yang Jiahui and Meimei wanted to defend Iris but stopped themselves. If there was one person in the residence that they didn’t want to offend, it would be Long Hui. He was, after all, the Long family’s legitimate heir. If something ever happened to Long Tengfei, Long Hui would immediately take over as the head of the family and the business.

Iris was, of course, also a legitimate heiress but she wasn’t expected to succeed Long Industries. The company was the family’s lifeblood and the reason why the Longs were enjoying their current status as a prominent business family.

To all of the Longs, Long Hui was their crown prince and one of the most important figures in the family, second only to Long Tengfei himself. Compared to him, Iris’ importance in the family was negligible except for the legitimacy of her birth, automatically labeling her as an heiress. As long as she wasn’t officially disowned, she would inherit a large share whether the rest of the family liked it or not. And Long Tengfei had no intention of disowning any of his children, either legitimate or illegitimate. In short, her role was only that of a decorative princess who held no authority over the family.

"Son, your sister has greeted you properly," Long Tengfei’s strict voice cut through the tense atmosphere. "Is that how you welcome her after not seeing her for so long?"

"My apologies. I was rude." Long Hui slightly bowed his head to Long Tengfei’s direction before turning back to Iris. "Good to see you too, Little Sister."

Iris nodded, looking unruffled despite the tense atmosphere.

They ate a sumptuous meal of traditional Chinese cuisine. The aunt and niece continued to chat with Iris while eating. The father and son, on the other hand, ate in relative silence. They weren’t the talkative type of people to begin with.

Perhaps due to the slight tension in the air, the aunt and niece did their best in maintaining the lighthearted conversation.

After dinner, they all headed to a living area connected to a veranda overlooking one of the beautiful gardens of the inner courtyard. It was a great place to relax while watching the moon and the stars in the night sky.

The five seated themselves and were served a light blend of hot osmanthus tea [1]. The women continued to chat with each other, while the two men sipped their tea, only speaking briefly when spoken to.

Moments later, a maid delivered a stack of Iris’ album "Rebirth". There were 29 copies in CD format.

Long Tengfei coughed and then gave the maid a stern look. "I didn’t say to bring them all out."
