Chapter 225 6 Transmigration
Wu Tao opened his eyes again, still somewhat dazed. He had lived for far too long this time, having transmigrated to the cultivation world.
So long that Wu Tao had forgotten that he was supposed to keep traveling to other worlds. Fortunately, after a long period of training, he was now less likely to lose focus for too long due to unexpected situations.
Wu Tao opened his eyes and immediately began absorbing the original owner's remaining memories. This was the golden time; he had to seize the moment to ensure he could fully absorb the original owner's memories.
It wasn't until several hours later that he fully received the other person's memories.
After receiving the memories, Wu Tao got up. No matter what happened, his first priority was to recover his health.
Speaking of the world I traveled to this time, it's quite similar to a novel I read before.
The original owner was also named Wu Tao, and was the young master of the Wu family in Nancheng. However, he was secretly switched by the family driver, Mei Jibo, shortly after the original owner was born.
At that time, driver Mei Jibo's wife happened to give birth on the same day as Wu's wife, Liu Lan.
At the time, Wu Chengzhi trusted his driver Mei Jibo a lot, so he naturally asked him to run errands for him.
This gives the other party an opportunity to take advantage of you.
In order to give their son a bright future, the other party and his wife conspired to pull off a scheme to replace the prince with a cat.
The other party switched their own son with the Wu family, but sold Wu Tao, the real young master, to human traffickers.
The human traffickers sold Wu Tao, the real young master, to a remote mountainous area.
When Wu Tao was five years old, something happened to that family, and he became an orphan again.
Fortunately, Wu Tao met an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor at this time. The doctor saw that Wu Tao was pitiful and chose to adopt him.
Wu Tao was also very ambitious, studying hard while learning medicine from this old traditional Chinese medicine doctor. Although the old doctor was just a township doctor, he was quite accomplished in traditional Chinese medicine.
Learning from experienced traditional Chinese medicine practitioners provided Wu Tao with excellent opportunities to master TCM skills during his childhood.
Even Wu Tao applied for a medical major, as his childhood dream was to become a doctor like his grandfather.
Wu Tao became famous at the age of eighteen when he took the college entrance examination and became the top scorer in the province. After extensive media coverage, he attracted a lot of attention.
It was at this time that Wu Tao was discovered by the Wu family of Nancheng, after all, Wu Tao looked too much like Wu Chengzhi, the head of the Wu family.
In fact, the Wu family noticed something was wrong when the fake young master, Wu Xiaochuan, was a teenager. Later, Wu Chengzhi also had a paternity test done and found that his son was not his biological son.
However, by this time, even if they wanted to investigate what happened back then, it was too late.
Moreover, they couldn't find their biological son for the time being, and they had already raised Wu Xiaochuan for more than ten years, so they just went along with the mistake.
At the same time, things aren't going smoothly for the Wu family either. If other family members discover that Wu Chengzhi's son, who is in charge, is not their biological son, the Wu family's company will likely face turmoil.
After so many years of hard work, the Wu family's company has long since grown into a listed company worth over a billion yuan.
Wu Chengzhi and Liu Lan could only acquiesce, and after all, they had raised their son for more than ten years, so it would be a lie to say they had no feelings for him.
This matter could have been kept secret indefinitely until Wu Tao, Wu Chengzhi's biological son, appeared, and only then did Wu Chengzhi truly find his son.
The old Chinese medicine doctor who adopted Wu Tao had no children of his own. His wife died in an accident years ago, and after adopting Wu Tao, he never considered remarrying.
After Wu Tao graduated from high school, his father passed away. Fortunately, the old Chinese medicine doctor left Wu Tao some money, which allowed him to continue his studies.
After Wu Tao was found by Wu Chengzhi and Liu Lan, he was able to return to the Wu family smoothly.
However, Wu Tao was too simple-minded, while Wu Xiaochuan, the adopted son of the Wu family, was cunning and resourceful. The two fought each other at home many times, and Wu Xiaochuan successfully outsmarted them each time.
Logically, with the biological son's return, the Wu family should have made their adopted son, Wu Xiaochuan, leave. (Explore urban novel categories)
Unfortunately, Wu Chengzhi, Liu Lan, and even Wu Tao's older sister Wu Lingling all have deep feelings for Wu Xiaochuan.
Furthermore, the original owner of this body had always lived in a small town, unlike Wu Xiaochuan, the adopted son who received an elite education from a young age.
The two sides have vastly different levels of knowledge and abilities; the contrast is quite striking.
Wu Chengzhi felt that his career needed a perfect successor. He valued Wu Xiaochuan more than Wu Tao.
Wu Xiaochuan certainly lived up to expectations, excelling in his studies from a young age and demonstrating remarkable business acumen.
The Wu family has a rule that every child receives a sum of five million yuan as start-up capital when they turn eighteen.
If you successfully invest this money, you will naturally gain greater power within the family.
Wu Chengzhi has an older brother and two younger brothers. The third generation of the Wu family, like Wu Lingling's generation, has more than a dozen people.
Wu Chengzhi stood out from several heirs and became the head of the Wu family because of his outstanding performance.
Wu Chengzhi stood out from several heirs and became the head of the Wu family because of his outstanding performance.
He also had his own considerations regarding the next generation of successors. Although Wu Xiaochuan was not his biological son, he was the most outstanding among the third generation.
It's not that Wu Chengzhi or Liu Lan truly didn't love their biological son.
At least Liu Lan treated Wu Tao and Wu Xiaochuan fairly on a regular basis.
However, Wu Lingling, the older sister, didn't have much affection for Wu Tao. Instead, she liked Wu Xiaochuan, the adopted son, very much.
The main reason is that Wu Xiaochuan was told about his background by his driver, Mei Jibo, when he was eight years old.
It was from that moment that Wu Xiaochuan realized that if he wanted to obtain everything from the Wu family, he had to be stronger than everyone else.
Besides being powerful, they also need to curry favor with the Wu family to avoid being kicked out.
The driver, Mei Jibo, is now retired. Apart from him, Wu Xiaochuan's mother, and Wu Xiaochuan, no one knows that the three of them had long ago planned everything for the Wu family.
Because Wu Xiaochuan had shown exceptional talent since childhood and was particularly adept at pleasing his family, they did not abandon him even after it was discovered that he was not their biological son.
Even after Wu Tao, their biological son, appeared, the Wu family did not change their attitude towards Wu Xiaochuan.
On the contrary, because Wu Tao lacked a sense of security and was not very shrewd, he was easily defeated by Wu Xiaochuan's little trick.
Wu Chengzhi and Liu Lan are both cunning old foxes; it's impossible for them not to see through some of the tricks of the trade.
Wu Chengzhi used a "raising poison" mentality to hone Wu Tao, hoping that his own son could also demonstrate his abilities.
No one would want to hand over their family business to an outsider, but unfortunately, the original owner did not achieve results that satisfied Wu Chengzhi.
Liu Lan was in a dilemma and could only privately advise Wu Tao to try not to argue with Wu Xiaochuan.
Putting aside the fact that both sides are equally loved, from the perspective of the extended family, it would be somewhat inappropriate for Wu Tao to oppose Wu Xiaochuan.
Wu Chengzhi and Liu Lan had basically decided that the future of the Wu family would most likely be handed over to Wu Xiaochuan.
It wasn't that they were biased; it was mainly due to intense internal strife within the Wu family. If it weren't for Wu Xiaochuan, and relying solely on someone like Wu Tao, the Wu family inheritance would definitely have gone to one of Wu Chengzhi's other brothers.
Rather than handing the family business over to the children of their other brothers, Wu Chengzhi and Liu Lan felt it was more appropriate for Wu Xiaochuan to take over.
At least they felt that Wu Xiaochuan's rise to power wouldn't be detrimental to them, mainly because Wu Xiaochuan had always shown a strong sense of loyalty and righteousness.
As for the disputes between Wu Xiaochuan and Wu Tao, they were all only touched upon briefly and then stopped.
Besides, with Wu Chengzhi around, Liu Lan wouldn't dare to really hurt Wu Tao, given Wu Xiaochuan's presence.
As a family member, enjoying a luxurious lifestyle inevitably comes at a price.
Wu Chengzhi and Liu Lan also hope that Wu Tao can grow up as soon as possible. If Wu Tao can grow into a strong person, they will naturally be willing to hand over the family to their biological son.
