After Being Betrayed, I Married a Tycoon in a Flash-Chapter 974: Was Little Shushu Scared into Growing Up?

Even though Sun Nanjue intervened directly as the host to successfully divert the topic away from Du Shiniang, when he tried to move on to the next segment, the reporters reverted the discussion back to Bai Yueru.

"Mrs. Sheng, besides the red envelope, the Old Madam gave Ye Shu an inheritance, what about you? Did you have anything else besides the red envelope?"

Bai Yueru, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but smile awkwardly, "It’s a good thing you mentioned it, I almost forgot."

Saying this, she extended her hand, and immediately someone placed a document into it.

Bai Yueru handed the document to Ye Shu, saying, "This is the extra gift I’m giving you."

Ye Shu looked it over and said, "Mom, what does this mean?"

Everyone looked closely and discovered that the document was actually a letter of appointment!

Bai Yueru said, "The meaning is clear. Recently, there have been rumors that our relationship as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is strained, and some say that I am targeting you because I’m afraid you’ll seize power. Now, I am handing over the position of the Old Mansion Master and everything of the Old Mansion’s business to you. As long as you sign it, it signifies your commitment to diligently serve the Sheng Family and the Old Mansion, making you the mistress of the Old Mansion in the future."

"Wow, Mrs. Sheng, it seems everyone underestimated you. You’re indeed a good mother-in-law who knows how to give way!" The reporters, witnessing the scene, even improved their tone.

Bai Yueru smiled gently, "Let those who are capable take the position. Since my daughter-in-law is so capable, why should I cling to this position, right?"

"Well said, Mrs. Sheng, and done even better. Letting those who are capable take the position, we believe Lady Ye Shu will manage the Old Mansion’s business outstandingly in the future."

"Mrs. Sheng knows how to let go and give young people a chance, well done!"

The reporters all expressed their praise for Bai Yueru.

However, Ye Xinyu and Bai Xue wore expressions of grave concern!

Especially Ye Xinyu, who always lagged behind Ye Shu in ability. After much effort to lead the Ye Group into the world’s top 500 under Gu Zuocheng, her status as the Young Mistress of the Gu Family gained significant weight. She even thought she might have the capability to defeat Ye Shu directly in the future!

But now, Bai Yueru intends to hand over the Old Mansion and its business to Ye Shu!

This is no small matter. Even though it’s a female-centric traditional industry, its large scale and excellent reputation would directly elevate Ye Shu to an unreachably high business platform!

Bai Xue whispered in Bai Yueru’s ear, "Sister, how could you be so foolish? Think thrice before acting. Once you hand over the position of Old Mansion Master and the business, it’ll be almost impossible to take it back from that little wench later!"

It’s not just others who were skeptical about this matter; even Ye Shu felt there must be a reason for Bai Yueru’s sudden change in attitude!

Maybe Bai Yueru is testing her, Ye Shu thought. If she accepts Bai Yueru’s goodwill and successfully becomes the Old Mansion Master, managing everything, then the rumors of her scheming to seize power would naturally become true.

But if she doesn’t accept, she’d be ridiculed by outsiders for being so timid, not daring to assume the position of Family Head. More importantly, Bai Yueru could tell any reporter in the future, "I initially wanted to transfer the position to my daughter-in-law, but she was too timid to take that position, so I had no choice but to hold it myself."

Thinking of this, Ye Shu couldn’t help but smile a bit...
