The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot novel Chapter 586

Chapter 586: 511 Endless Disguises, Group’s Favorite God Ying [2 More Chapters]

Second Heir: Huo Tengfei

Third Heir: Ren Xiao

Fourth Heir: Wen Fengmian

Fifth Heir: Qu Xuan

Among the five heirs, not a single one bears the Ji surname at first glance.

Of course, the Ji family members all knew that Wen Fengmian was surnamed Ji, a member of the Ji family.

Even so, it allowed non-Ji surnamed individuals to occupy four-fifths of the positions.

Not a single member of the Ji family wanted to see this ratio.

Although it is said that those not bearing the Ji surname who joined the Ji family pledged never to betray it,

Should they betray, the consequences would be relentless pursuit until death.

Backed by the Ancient Martial World, the Ji family has not seen any traitor emerge over these years.

But who knows what the future holds?

"You all have seen it for yourselves," the president pushed up his glasses and sighed, "In these past five or six years, the people of our Ji family have actually fallen behind in scientific research, with 70% of the research contributions made by the talents we recruited."

"The heirs must be under fifty years of age, listed on the Merit List, and then ranked according to their contributions to research; that is how the list was determined."

The hall was silent.

Ji Yihang was also silent, not speaking.

He remembered very clearly the island accident that Wen Fengmian had gone through, which resulted in the death of five Ji family researchers.

These five researchers were the elite of the Ji family at the time.

If Wen Fengmian had truly died in that island accident, none of the five chosen heirs today would have been from the Ji family.

"President," a middle-aged man at the long table raised his head and asked in return, "Isn’t there a rule giving priority to Ji family members in inheriting the Ji family and the Research Institute?"

What is it to have individuals not surnamed Ji inherit the Ji family?

The Inner Court may grant these people high status and position, but the right of inheritance?

The president paused for a few seconds before saying, "This is the intention of the Main House."

At this moment, a senior elder also spoke up: "For the Main House, they only need research, not the surname."

Another silence followed.

That statement was a fact.

With the Ancient Martial World present, ordinary people could only submit.

Even if the Ji family’s surname changes in the future, they still wouldn’t dare to defy the Ancient Martial World.

"This is not the final ranking," the president said as he distributed another batch of documents, "At the end of the year, we will have a final vote, and members of the Main House will also attend."

"If there is anyone from your faction among these heirs, remember to tell them."

Huo Tengfei, Ren Xiao, and Qu Xuan, the three nominated heirs, all belonged to several factions and were also sons-in-law of the Ji family.

Yan Ruoxue was the only exception.

But only Yan Ruoxue had extensive connections in O continent.

In terms of scientific research, many core data and experimental materials are tightly controlled by several major international powers.

Without connections, if these powers choose to block access to this information and materials, the Ji family’s research will come to a halt.

Another reason the senior elders chose Yan Ruoxue as the first heir was that her niece, Yan Anhe, was a member of the Pill Alliance and might become the apprentice of Lin Qingjia in the future.

Ji Yihang took the documents home and told Madam Ji about the meeting.

Madam Ji frowned, "Does Yan Ruoxue have such a wide network of connections as Yaoyao?"

If it were before, Yan Ruoxue would indeed qualify as the Ji family’s foremost young talent.

But ever since Ying Zijin came to the Ji family, she was able to casually produce invites precious to even the Ancient Martial World, along with numerous rare experimental materials.

Madam Ji truly did not know whom Ying Zijin was acquainted with.

But what she could be sure of was that anyone she might choose to speak of would be an exceedingly esteemed individual.

"Definitely not," Ji Yihang shook his head, "But this still depends on Fengmian and the others’ will. Fengmian has no interest in inheriting the Ji family; we can’t force it."

Madam Ji nodded in agreement, "Dad said the same, we can’t keep Yaoyao trapped in the Ji family."

"Anyway, this is not the final result," Ji Yihang sighed softly, "There are still nearly three months left. Although my talent and intelligence are not as good as Fengmian’s, I plan to put up a fight."

One could imagine how Yan Ruoxue would suppress them once she became heir.

Such a narrow-minded person was simply unsuitable to be the heir.

Madam Ji’s expression turned solemn, "I will help you."

Elsewhere.

In a Western restaurant.

"Auntie, congratulations," Yan Anhe smiled, "I thought that after Ji Yiyuan fell out of favor, you would definitely lose a lot of resources, but I didn’t expect the Ji family to elect you as the first heir."

Yan Ruoxue gently sipped her red wine, swirled the glass, and said, "There was no choice. Since my scientific research achievements are the most numerous, they had to put me first." _{freewēbnoveℓ.com}

Wen Fengmian had returned, but in so short a time, hardly any experiments could be completed.

Yan Ruoxue was in a rare good mood, "Anhe, has Yuze finished his training? Are you not going out to enjoy yourselves this National Day? In the future, the Ji family will rely on him."

Ning Yuze was Yan Anhe’s boyfriend.

"Auntie, he’s still a reserve team member," Yan Anhe said shyly, "He hasn’t even met the commander. To actually join the Yi Character Team isn’t so easy."

For the masses, the top forces in Imperial Capital were the Mu family, Nie family, and Xiu family.

But that is not the case.
