From Li Xiang’s unruffled facial expression.

Zhang Ling indeed did not see any subtle reaction from him about wanting to be the clan leader.

It seems that what Li Xiang just said is true.

"Why?" the old patriarch asked pretending to be confused.

He had already guessed the result.

But he also wanted to find a breakthrough from Li Xiang's words and deeds.

I thought I had to get Li Xiang to agree today.

Li Xiang continued:

"I just don't want to be."

The old patriarch tried to persuade:

"If you don't do it right, I'm afraid our Li family will never be able to find a suitable patriarch. At any rate, we won't be able to write two characters of "Li" in one stroke. I guess you don't want to see the decline of the Li family."

He smiled in his heart.

It's a mockery!

What is the relationship between your Li family and me?

Of course, this is also a true portrayal of Li Xiang’s heart.

Because Li Xiang has felt many times that Li Xiang really has no feelings for this family.

Li Xiang shook his head again and looked at Li Xi beside him and said:

"Not necessarily. Since Li Xi is willing to be the clan leader, I think it's appropriate for her to be the clan leader."

When Li Xi heard Li Xiang's words, he quickly stood in front of the old patriarch, nodding his head excitedly and begging.

The old patriarch looked at Li Xi in front of him with a speechless smile.

Li Xiang seemed to be supporting Li Xi and continued:

"What's more, she just put forward the best way for her to be a good patriarch. I think what Li Xi said is very good. How about you just follow Li Xi's wishes."

The old patriarch pulled Li Xi away from his eyes without hesitation and said firmly:

"no!"

This made Zhang Ling on the side feel a little strange!

Could it be that the position of the clan leader is a hot coal that cannot be held in hand through the winter?

Therefore, the old patriarch urgently needs his unrelated descendant to take over.

Li Xiang just wanted to speak, but he didn't expect Li Xi to ask the question that puzzled everyone on his behalf.

"Grandpa, is there any reason why Li Xiang must do it? If you can't explain why today, Xi'er will... stop eating from now on."

Li Xi tried to use the hunger strike to press the old patriarch for specific reasons.

Li Xiang nodded and looked at the old patriarch to add fuel to the fire and said:

"Yes! Patriarch, I also want to know what reason you have for insisting on me. If you can't tell me anything, you refuse to participate in the family sacrifice this time. I will leave immediately with Zhang Ling."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xiang grabbed Zhang Ling's hand and walked towards the dormitory door.

Many tribesmen at the scene were eager for Li Xiang to leave immediately.

One after another, they all found a way for Li Jiang.

When the old patriarch saw Li Xiang stepping over the threshold, he finally couldn't help shouting:

"Wait a minute! I said, can't I say that? Li Xiang, you come back first, and I will tell everyone the reason why you must be the leader of the clan."

Li Xiang took back his steps towards the threshold, looked back at the old patriarch and said:

"You don't have to go back. I can hear it from here. Chief, just say it, I'm listening."

The old patriarch is indeed a thousand-year-old fox.

He laid out all the achievements that Li Xiang had made since graduating from college, like a treasure trove of treasures, in front of many clan members.

Finally, he looked around the clan members with great momentum and asked:

"Who? Who among you thinks he is more accomplished than Li Xiang? Then I will hand over the position of clan leader to him."

As soon as the old clan leader finished speaking, all the clan members present were as wilted as eggplants beaten by frost.

Even Li Xi, who had been jumping around the most happily, lowered his head in shame.

After all, she has always been in trouble.

As far as the family is concerned, if she doesn't cause trouble, then she has made a huge contribution to the family.

Li Xi always thought that the patriarch's grandfather didn't like him and didn't care about Li Xiang.

I never expected that I could understand Li Xiang so comprehensively.

Zhang Ling always thought that she already knew Li Xiang very well.

After listening to the old patriarch's introduction, she realized that she knew less than three-fifths of Li Xiang.

However, for Li Xiang, he was not surprised at all when the old patriarch said this.

Because Li Xiang had already anticipated these for him.

Even the tone of expression used by the old patriarch was vividly described.

Following Zhen Li Xiang's arrangement, he suddenly meditated for a while, giving the impression that he was deep in memory.

Not long.

He deliberately laughed awkwardly in front of many clan members, and then acted like the old clan leader said that none of this was done by him.

Then he suppressed his smile and said slightly ashamed:

"Patriarch, patriarch, he is indeed the most powerful patriarch in the history of our Li family. If you didn't mention some of what you just said, the younger generation would almost forget that I had done it before."

After saying this, his sharp eyes fell on Uncle XX beside him.

The old patriarch obviously understood Li Xiang's intention.

So he looked at XX with some indignation and shouted:

"Get over here!"

Because I remember that the Japanese chemical industry in Uncle XX's hands was severely impacted by the Japanese chemical industry from abroad.

Earnings have posted negative growth for two consecutive quarters.

The Li Group can only choose to give up its continued investment in the daily chemical industry.

They even chose to divest from their capital to make matters worse.

At this time, Li Xiang personally helped Uncle XX come up with a plan to successfully revive the industry.

We are even fortunate to have become the third largest daily chemical industry in the country.

It’s just that Uncle XX finally disliked Li Xiang because he was too evil!

At that time, 90% of the year-end profits of the daily chemical industry were taken away.

Therefore, he has always held a grudge against Li Xiang.

That’s why I just jumped out and targeted Li Xiang.

Uncle XX stood in front of the clan leader tremblingly and said:

"Second uncle, are you okay?"

The old patriarch raised the civilized stick in his hand and was about to fall hard on Uncle XX.

Maybe you feel that you can no longer exert your energy as you get older.

Or maybe you feel it is inappropriate to do this in front of your ancestors today.

So he poked the floor with a civilized stick a few times and yelled:

"Right now, get in front of Li Xiang and apologize. Apologize for your reckless behavior just now. Do you hear me?"

After Zhang Ling heard the old clan leader's order, she was as shocked as the other clan members.

Let uncles apologize to nephews.

This is undoubtedly more insulting than the old patriarch's direct punishment by hitting him with a civilized stick.

Maybe Li Xi and Uncle XX are relatively close on weekdays.

After seeing XX tree's eyes asking for help, she hugged the patriarch's grandfather's arm and shook her head like a coquettish girl:

"Grandpa, Uncle XX is an elder after all! If he really humbles himself and apologizes to Li Xiang today, then how should Uncle XX behave in the future?"

With Li Xi taking the lead in interceding.

Suddenly, voices pleading for Uncle XX came and went.

What's more, some people use their status as elders to put pressure on Li Xiang.

If Li Xiang dares to really accept Uncle XX's apology, he is making an enemy of all the elders of the Li family.

Zhang Ling clearly saw that the old patriarch had no intention of standing up to rescue Li Xiang.

Instead, he looked at the drama put on by his tribe as an outsider.

Li Xiang didn't say a word, put on a meaningful smile, and looked around at the faces of the clan members.

He then turned around gracefully and walked to Zhang Ling, smiled and took Zhang Ling's hand again, and said very gently:

"I'm sorry for showing you a face you shouldn't see. Let's go. Let's leave this disgusting place."

Zhang Ling nodded with a happy smile and said:
