Seeing that Irene was really going to leave with Ma Chao, Ai Mingxu was so angry that he was shaking all over.
"If you dare to take a step outside the Ai family, you will die outside and have nothing to do with the Ai family!" Ai Mingxu almost roared.
This sentence completely means to sever any relationship with Eileen.
Eileen suddenly stamped her feet and her body trembled slightly. She did not look back, but tears had already fallen from her eyes.
Seeing Irene's appearance, Ma Chao almost felt heartbroken. He held Irene's hand tightly and said, "You know, the Tian family is nothing in front of Brother Chen, so why are you doing this?
"
A soft curve appeared at the corner of Eileen's mouth. She wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes, looked at Ma Chao with a smile and said, "Because you are my man. Since I have chosen you, it will be a sea of swords and fire, and I will accompany you!"
At this moment, Ma Chao felt that his heart melted. While he was moved in his heart, he was also very happy that he had seized the opportunity to pursue Irene. Such a good woman, even if he were asked to die for this woman now, he would be willing to do so.
A scholar can die for his close friends, and he can also die for his love.
"Don't worry, I will tell the Tian family that before Tian Xinyu died, I had already severed ties with the Ai family. It was my boyfriend who killed him, and we are responsible for everything."
Eileen suddenly turned around, looked at Ai Mingxu calmly and said.
After saying that, she glanced at everyone in the Ai family one by one, and finally took a deep look into the Ai family manor. Then without any reluctance, she turned around resolutely, pulling Ma Chao to leave.
Everyone in the Ai family looked on coldly, and no one stood up to speak for Irene.
They didn't want Irene to leave before, so that Irene could stay in the Ai family and bear the Tian family's anger.
But now, Irene has made it very clear that she will bear everything with Ma Chao, and since she has been expelled from the Ai family, everything she does will have nothing to do with the Ai family.
The moment he saw Irene turn around, Ai Mingxu's heart suddenly twitched violently. After all, she was his biological daughter. Although what he said was very harsh, he still owed something to his daughter after all.
"Stop!"
At this moment, an angry shout suddenly sounded.
Irene, who had followed Ma Chao more than ten meters away, stopped immediately when she heard the voice.
"Father!"
"Old Master!"
When they saw the person coming, the Ai family members quickly greeted them respectfully.
Eileen also turned around, looked at the old figure, and couldn't help but said: "Grandpa!"
The person who came was none other than the former head of the Ai family, Ai Chuan.
It was precisely because he saw the potential of Ma Chao and Yang Chen that Ai Chuan immediately announced his abdication and designated Irene as the new head of the family.
It was only when Irene refused that Ai Chuan gave up the position of head of the family to Ai Mingxu.
All this is because of Irene.
"I'm not dead yet, and you can't wait to drive my granddaughter out of the family?"
Ai Chuan stared at Ai Mingxu with his sharp eyes and asked coldly.
This question made Ai Mingxu feel cold all over, and he quickly said: "Father, this rebellious woman offended the Tian family this time, and the son of Tian Hua, the heir of the Tian family, was killed."
"Now the only way to save the Ai family is to expel her from the Ai family. I made such a decision only out of necessity!"
Ai Mingxu explained quickly.
Others also hurriedly said: "Old Patriarch, what the Patriarch said is true, please delegate the authority!"
"Please let me, the head of the family, delegate the power!"
"Please let me, the head of the family, delegate the power!"
…
At this time, dozens of direct descendants of the Ai family shouted for Ai Chuan to delegate power.
Seeing this scene, Ai Chuan only felt extremely ironic. He was already seventy years old, and he had just passed on Ai Mingxu not long ago. It was not his hegemony, but Ai Mingxu's weight, which he knew very well.
If Irene hadn't refused, even if he died, he wouldn't have been able to pass on the title of head of the family to Ai Mingxu.
What I didn't expect was that my son didn't have much ability to win over people's hearts when it came to handling family affairs, but he did have some tricks.
"That's what you mean too?"
Ai Chuan did not respond to anyone, but looked at Ai Mingxu and asked.
Ai Mingxu kept his head down, not even daring to look at Ai Chuan.
"Keep your head up!"
Ai Chuan shouted angrily.
This time, Ai Mingxu raised his head and looked at Ai Chuan.
"Tell me, you also want me to delegate power, right?"
Ai Chuan asked again.
Ai Mingxu was no longer silent, gritted his teeth and said: "Since you have handed over the position of the head of the family to me, please ask father to delegate power! I will do my best to make the Ai family stronger!"
"Dad! How could you say such a thing to grandpa?"
Eileen couldn't help it, her face was full of disbelief.
In her impression, Ai Mingxu had never been such a person.
"Don't call me dad! You have been expelled from the Ai family, and we have been completely severed!" Ai Mingxu said angrily.
Irene bit her red lips tightly and said no more. Her red eyes kept looking at Ai Chuan.
After Ai Chuan received Ai Chuan's reply, he felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained out. He, who was already in his seventies, seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.
He smiled self-deprecatingly: "It turns out that in your eyes, power is more important than daughter and father."
"Mingxu, do you know why I have been the head of the family for so many years without delegating power?"
Ai Chuan suddenly asked calmly.
When Ai Mingxu heard this topic, a trace of anger appeared on his face, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't it because you like power?"
"Otherwise, why would you refuse to delegate power? I am your only son and the only heir to the Ai family. Why have you maintained hegemony for so long?"
"Do you know what people outside say about me?"
"They say that I am incompetent and a short-sighted loser. Even if I am the only heir of the Ai family, as long as you don't die, I will have no hope of inheriting the position of head of the family in this life."
"It's all your fault. You're already old. Wouldn't it be nice to abdicate in peace, raise flowers and plants, and enjoy your old age in peace?"
"Why do you want to dominate the position of the head of the family and let me become a trash in other people's words?"
Ai Mingxu completely exploded and became extremely emotional. He yelled at Ai Chuan, as if he wanted to vent all the grievances he had suffered over the years.
Ai Chuan remained silent and listened quietly. After Ai Mingxu finished speaking, he smiled self-deprecatingly: "So even your son thinks that I am a person who likes hegemony?"
"Isn't it?" Ai Mingxu said angrily.
"Then do you know how much energy I have spent cultivating you over the years?"
"If it weren't for your lack of ability, would I have occupied the position of head of the family and refused to give up my power?"
"Now you blame me for your hegemony? I'm already dying, but I worry about the affairs of the Ai family. Don't I know how to delegate power to take care of myself in old age?"
Ai Chuan asked again and again, his face full of disappointment.
