Chapter 478: I Make Mistakes Easily When I Am Moody
After Old Sheng left, Gu Ziling walked toward Third Brother. She wanted to slap him to vent her anger. But Hu Ran shielded him, as if she was scared that Gu Ziling would hurt him. She blocked Gu Ziling from getting near Third Brother. “What do you want?”
“This fool treats you quite well.” Gu Ziling snorted and said, “Since you don’t appreciate my kindness, don’t frame me. From now on, don’t dream about getting any information about your grandfather.”
“Don’t bully my Third Brother!”
“Just wait and see!” Gu Ziling left the living room, ready to “reflect on her mistake” in her room.
Hu Ran exchanged glances with Third Brother and they went to their room quickly.
“Are you alright?” As soon as they sat down, Hu Ran asked. “Did I appear too late?”
“No, you came in the nick of time,” replied Third Brother. “Today we have offended Second Sister-in-law. So, we must be careful from now on.”
Hu Ran nodded. Since they did not sleep last night, she said, “Since it is over, we should get a good sleep and recharge.”
“You didn’t sleep as well last night? You can sleep on the bed and I will sleep on the couch.” Having said that, the tall Third Brother lay on the couch.
After Hu Ran saw him falling asleep, she went to take a shower. Although they had had an open conversation with each other, they knew each other for only a few days. It would be definitely awkward for them to sleep together on the same bed all of a sudden. Therefore, Hu Ran did not force it. After Third Brother was asleep, she lay on the bed quietly.
So, were they a fake couple or a real one?
…
On the other hand, the meeting Lu Qianqian was attending was set at two o’clock.
In fact, it was just a greeting to the directors. Lu Qianqian had to wait for the inauguration conference before she could take office officially.
Because of Papa Lu’s legacy, Lu Qianqian officially became the undisputed chairman of Lu Holdings. However, nobody in Lu Holdings was convinced.
She was just a young lady in her early twenties. Moreover, she was not a graduate from a prestigious university, nor a genius in business management. She has not even attended an ordinary university before, what qualifications did she have to become the new leader of Lu Holdings?
The shareholders were not convinced at all.
If they knew this earlier, it would be better for Lu Holdings to be dissolved before the little girl destroyed it.
So, many of the shareholders have already planned to divest their capital.
The brothers of Lu Holdings were already waiting to see a good drama. They guessed the shareholders must have prepared a lot of tricks to embarrass Lu Qianqian. They just did not dare to say anything with the presence of the representatives of Zhongteng.
“With the situation of Lu Holdings now, I think it would be better to divest the capital to avoid heavy losses. What do you think?”
Some shareholders voiced out frankly. “A company is not a toy. Moreover, there are so many talented people in Lu Holdings. Why must we let Miss Lu be the leader and mess around?”
The representatives of Zhongteng heard them and said, “If any shareholders at presence are not convinced, you can consider selling your shares to Zhongteng.”
The shareholders stopped talking immediately.
After a while, Lu Qianqian entered the meeting room in a white suit. Her almond-shaped eyes swept across the directors. After that, she sat in the seat meant for the chairperson.
But nobody cared about her when she entered the meeting room. They completely ignored her.
Lu Qianqian cleared her throat and said, “Dear uncles, you seem to be very unhappy seeing me sitting here. I can understand that. After all, I am still young and you have not seen my abilities. It’s my fault.”
“What can you do? Messing around with men and getting yourself pregnant?”
The shareholders laughed heartily when they heard this. But to Lu Qianqian, it was a plain humiliation.
“Judging from your look, you must be at the age that I should call you ‘uncle’. Don’t you have a daughter?” Lu Qianqian questioned him.
“My daughter will not act like you.”
The crowd laughed once more. But Lu Qianqian laughed alongside them. “So, do you think a group of men humiliating and bullying a woman is something that should be glorified? If I were your daughter, I would feel even more ashamed of you.”
“You are good with words. But how about your abilities in leading a company?” Uncle Lu interrupted. “Do you think that being the new chairman of Lu Holdings, you just have to sit there and argue with people to improve the performance of the company?”
“I am here today just to greet everyone. I will save the real tricks until the inauguration conference,” said Lu Qianqian, “If any of you want to leave Lu Holdings today, I will not object. Uncle, you conspired with my father’s lawyer and made a fake will. I still haven’t reported it to the police. If I were you, I would be sitting here quietly without uttering any word to avoid attention. Because I, your niece, make mistakes easily when I am moody.”
Uncle Lu’s face paled.
“I want to make myself clear in advance. The uncles in the Lu family, we know what you are eyeing at in Lu Holdings. I know what you want.” Lu Qianqian pointed at her head and said, “But I, Lu Qianqian, am not a doormat, who can be trampled on as you wish. Since the shareholders from Zhongteng are present today, I will make it clear all at once. If you try to play tricks behind me, or gang up against me, then don’t blame me when I sell Lu Holdings to the other people and make your effort go to waste. Meanwhile, I hope the other directors can be mindful of your decisions.”
“You seem to do a good job of showing off your power. We shall wait and see.” The directors crossed their arms in front of their chests and smirked.
“Let’s put aside the inauguration conference for now. There is a more important matter to be decided on. For instance, the contract with Tianhong. Are we going to start the theme park project? I’m afraid a young girl like you could not even understand the documents, could you?”
“I want the contract with Tianhong to be terminated.”
“Are you joking?” The Lu family refuted. “That is a few tens of billions worth of contract! How is it possible to terminate it just because you say so?”
“A big contract worth a few tens of billions? Do you think I don’t know what you are planning?” Lu Qianqian laughed. “Don’t you know the reputation of Tianhong in the construction industry these few years? Why not work with Hong Sheng, which has the best reputation? Do you think I would not know you want to gain benefit from it? We must prioritize the safety of a theme park. Don’t you think you can trick me after my father is gone.”
Lu Qianqian’s word startled everyone.
“Let’s put aside the case first. After I take office, I will restart a project. So, is there anything so important that even the deputy CEO cannot handle left to be decided on?”
The crows stopped talking.
