Chapter 496 All part of a plan
*Flashback*
After the third attack on Zhiyuan in the hospital, he and Yunru immediately started working together to find the perpetrator behind the accidents. It didn\'t take long before they nabbed one of the older generation shareholders and made him spill the beans.
Yunru asked, "Do you want me to make an arrest? His testimony is enough to put Liao Yuan in custody."
Zhiyuan gravely thought about it.
"No. Not yet. He helped Keung behind the scenes. If we put him to jail, Keung will grow only more hostile. I don\'t want to corner Keung. Instead…let\'s wait. I want Keung to see his real face."
He smirked. "Liao Yuan will show it soon enough himself. He doesn\'t really support Keung. He is just using him to get Xinyi. Once Keung does anything that isn\'t in our favor, Liao Yuan will throw him under the bus right away. That\'s when we will show Keung what Liao Yuan really wants."
Yunru sighed. "You still care about Keung so much, brother-in-law."
He smiled. "He is my cute brother, after all. He has simply lost his way. He is not evil."
"And that not-so-evil brother of yours has taken the majority shares by the way," he raised his brow.
"Not really."
He narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean?"
Zhiyuan smiled. "He doesn\'t have my shares because I was in the hospital. He doesn\'t have Grandpa\'s shares either because he knows it\'s impossible to force him into a corner. He carefully chose the people who could give him the majority of shares without causing him much trouble. It was a tight pool. Right now, Keung is barely the majority shareholder. Dot at fifty-one percent."
"Yeah. Even if just one of them had…"
"Right. His whole plan will fall apart. Actually, it already has."
"Huh?" Yunru blinked. "How?"
"Mom, Dad, and Zizi\'s shares transfers are invalid. You see, Mom has set up her own business as you know. Plus," he sighed, "Mom and Dad are divorced. So, she didn\'t keep the Han Corps\' shares with her after they separated. Dad is a well-renowned painter. He was never involved much in the family business, so his morals didn\'t allow him to keep the shares with him either. As for Zizi. Once her engagement with you was announced, she gave up on her shares too."
"What!?" Yunru stared at him in disbelief. "Why? She didn\'t have to do this."
Zhiyuan chuckled. "Don\'t panic, Yunru. It was her choice. She will always be the Han family\'s princess. But now that she will spend the rest of her life with you, she wants to do it with her husband\'s money. It\'s her wish to let go of her status as the Han family\'s heiress and solely live as Soo Yunru\'s wife. Mind you, Yunru. She is not forcing herself. So, don\'t you dare fight my sister over this," he sternly warned him. "You two fighting over money is the last thing anybody wants."
Yunru exhaled. "I don\'t know what to do with her…"
"She is cute, right?"
"I want to pinch her cheeks hard."
"Don\'t do it too hard. Also, don\'t tell her that I told you this or she won\'t talk to me anymore. It was supposed to be a secret."
Yunru laughed. "Fine. I won\'t."
Zhiyuan shook his head. "Anyway. Coming back to Keung. Mom, Dad and Zizi gave up their shares. Instead of keeping them, they all put it on Siying\'s name. When he will turn twenty-one, Siying will officially be their owner. Those papers are already signed, and the process is done. So, there is no point in taking their signatures on some other share transfer papers. It\'s illegal. Nobody told him this because maybe they were afraid Keung would target Siying or use some other dangerous method to get those shares. They preferred to fool him instead."
Yunru was visibly surprised. He didn\'t expect things would take this turn.
"So…Keung is not really the CEO? You can overtake him anytime you want."
He shrugged. "Pretty much. But I will not do it because if Keung has gone this far to become the CEO, then I want to see how he leads the company. Let him have this chance. If I force him out now, the bitterness in his heart will only grow. Also, I want to make him realize the mistake he made by trusting Liao Yuan. It\'s to my benefit if he stays in this position. The only concern is Mrs. An. Her connection to the Liao family is shrouded in mystery."
Yunru assured him. "Don\'t worry about that. Uncle An and I will figure something out about it. I am pretty sure she doesn\'t have any amnesia. With Uncle An on our side, we can do something to bring the truth out."
Once Zhiyuan and Yunru agreed upon their plan, they waited for Liao Yuan to make the move.
He did so when he first asked Xinyi to visit him in the cafe. Under normal circumstances, Zhiyuan would have absolutely forbidden her from meeting him. But it was a chance to hear what he had to say.
As expected, he was quick to blame Keung and his parents for making her life difficult. Unknown to him, Xinyi was actually recording their conversation. Then there was another time at the park where he tried to do the same thing once again when their new company was at the brink of losing all their investments.
After successfully getting all the evidence directly from the perpetrators\' mouth, Zhiyuan and Xinyi showed all these recordings to Keung one day.
"Do you understand now, Keung?" Zhiyuan asked as stopped the recording.
Keung remained silent. His countenance hadn\'t changed much on the outside, but they noticed his fist slightly shaking in anger. His eyes revealed how furious he was at what he just heard.
Xinyi sighed. "We don\'t blame you for anything, Keung. Yuan took your advantage because you were the most vulnerable. We also know that you didn\'t mean all those accidents to happen. Now that you know the truth, it\'s your decision what you want to do next. Yuan will be exposed one day for sure. But it\'s your choice if you want to help us with it or not. So, what do you want to do, Keung?"
