The boss has no descendants, but he encounters four smaller versions of himself

Chapter 1022 I'm destined to be a laughing stock, aren't I?



Chapter 1022 I'm destined to be a laughing stock, aren't I?

After thinking for a moment, Qiao Sinian said, "There is no why. If you have to ask for a reason, it is ability."

"Your abilities are far inferior to mine."

These words were like the last straw, breaking the last vestiges of Jos Yue's pride.

"Do you think Mom and Dad don't know? They know everything. That's why they would rather entrust the Chemosi family to me, a short-lived person, than ever consider you."

"Because if it were handed over to you, you would not be able to do anything I have done today. What I have done has already surpassed the original scale and size of the Chemosi family."

He looked at Qiao Siyue's thunderstruck and bewildered expression, as if he were looking at a frog at the bottom of a well who had never seen the view from the mountaintop but dared to dream of climbing it.

“You have never truly reached the top, so you don’t know how lonely it is at the top. With your abilities and mindset, you simply cannot grasp this wealth and power.”

Joss was completely panicked, his mind was buzzing.

Only today, only now, has he truly witnessed just how deep Qiao Sinian's cunning and control really are.

He thought he was playing a game, but little did he know that even his right to sit at the table was a favor bestowed upon him by the other party.

All his aggressive gestures were probably just a boring monkey show in the eyes of the other party.

At this moment, Qiao Siyue's psychological defenses were completely broken down.

He suddenly laughed: "So... I'm destined to be a joke, right?"

He stared blankly at Qiao Sinian. “Everything I’ve tried so hard to get, you just got with a wave of your hand. I can never beat you… All those years, you must have thought I was ridiculous, right? Did you often hide in the shadows and laugh at me like I was a monkey show?”

Qiao Sinian listened quietly to his outburst until he finished speaking, then slowly shook his head: "No."

“You’re not entirely useless. At least you have strong execution skills and are ruthless and decisive. If you could put those skills and abilities into the right way, that would be great.”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Siyue chuckled softly, his laughter growing increasingly mournful: "The right path? Hahahaha... Qiao Sinian, I've already admitted defeat. I confess I can't beat you."

He stopped laughing, his gaze fixed on Qiao Sinian, filled with a final mix of confusion and stubbornness. "I only have one last question left. If killing me is so simple, why don't you do it? Why did you call me in here?"

Qiao Sinian was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I want you to do one more thing for me."

Qiao Siyue laughed: "Ha, work for you? Qiao Sinian, you still believe me?"

He pointed to himself, his tone brimming with absurdity, "Or do you think I can do a good job if you leave things to me?"

He awaited Jossian's mockery or even deeper humiliation.

However, Qiao Sinian just stared at him steadily, his tone calm, even with a hint of certainty: "Yes, you can do it."

"Besides, I only trust you in this matter."

Trust only him?

Joss suddenly looked up, staring at him in disbelief, trying to find even the slightest hint of mockery or lie on his face.

But all he saw was a bottomless calm.

Qiao Sinian's eyes were unusually calm.

There was no hatred, no resentment, and not even the triumph of the victors.

The way he looked at Qiao Siyue was as if he were looking at an object—a calmness completely detached from personal emotions, a calmness of strategizing.

Perhaps, deep down, he never truly regarded Qiao Siyue as a rival.

He was so powerful that he could easily crush everything his opponent had, yet at the last moment, he still said, "I believe in you."

To be honest, Qiao Sinian didn't hate Qiao Siyue.

It's more likely jealousy, jealousy that he has a healthy body.

But that's about it.

As for believing, it seems extremely absurd to apply it to Qiao Siyue, and outsiders would not understand it.

He was wicked and cunning, but he trusted Qiao Siyue more than outsiders or even family elders who were outwardly obedient but harbored many hidden intentions.

Because, no matter how much the two brothers fought amongst themselves, even to the point of life and death, their fundamental goal was the same.

Qiao Siyue is a huge contradiction in himself.

He wanted to defeat Jossian at every turn, and longed to trample him underfoot. He even went so far as to plot assassinations multiple times, all in order to seize the position of leader of the Chemosey family.

However, if any outsider tries to harm Qiao Sinian, he will be the first to stand up and tear them to pieces.

Qiao Sinian still remembers his junior high school years very clearly.

A friend of Qiao Siyue discovered the secret that they were twins, and even learned the hidden truth that Qiao Sinian was suffering from a strange poison and was about to die.

The man said to Qiao Siyue with a contemptuous tone, "Your brother is going to die anyway, what's the use of keeping such a sickly good-for-nothing? It's better for him to die sooner rather than later and give you the position. Or, I'll help you kill him?"

At that moment, the smile on Qiao Siyue's face vanished instantly. Behind his back, he beat the man until he was black and blue, and even used methods to make it impossible for the other party's family to gain a foothold in the industry.

Qiao Sinian still remembered what Qiao Siyue said when he grabbed the other person's collar while hitting him: "That's my brother. In this world, only I can bully him. What are you? You think you're worthy of killing him?"

The person who was beaten was so frightened that his eyes almost popped out of their sockets, not only because of the physical pain, but also because of Qiao Siyue's morbid favoritism.

He clearly hated Qiao Sinian to the core and wanted to beat him in every way, but he would never allow outsiders to lay a hand on him, not even to talk about it.

Is there any logic to this? No, there isn't!

Therefore, in many people's eyes, Qiao Siyue is a devil, a lunatic, and his code of conduct cannot be understood by common sense.

On another occasion, a powerful elder within the group attempted to join forces with outsiders to launch an attack at the board meeting, trying to oust the ailing Qiao Sinian from his position.

Before Qiao Sinian could even make a move, the elder died mysteriously and unexpectedly. Later, Qiao Sinian secretly investigated and found that the mastermind behind it was actually Qiao Siyue.

......

After calming down, Joss asked, "So, you called me in alone and asked me to do something for you, to hand over the management of the Chemosi family to me?"

Qiao Sinian met his probing gaze, his face remaining expressionless, and simply responded with a faint "Mm".

Qiao Siyue was extremely shocked. He couldn't understand it. This was impossible. This was absolutely impossible!

But Joshua said, "You think it's impossible, but for me, those rights, wealth and status are nothing but external things."

He closed his eyes slightly, then opened them again, his eyes revealing an undisguised weariness. "And after all these years, I'm tired too."

In order to manage the vast family business, he has devoted several times more effort and time than the average person over the years, despite his poor health, and he immediately threw himself back into work after each episode of poisoning.

He was like a taut string, never truly relaxed.

He was truly exhausted, both physically and mentally.

He continued, "I don't know how much longer I can live. Maybe the Hundred Poison Hand can develop an antidote and I can live a little longer, but whether it's in the short term or for a long time to come, I don't want to go back to that position."

"Right now, all I want to do is be with Xiaoman and my son."
