Chapter 537: You Don’t Like Me Much, It Seems
“I thought of the time when I had a crush on you. But I didn’t dare to tell anyone. And now, we are getting married.”
“Was that a crush? I could see it all along. How has it become a secret already?” Sheng Xiao made fun of her. “You always looked at me as if you wanted to eat me. Whoever saw it definitely knew.”
Mu Qiqi thought for a while. It was indeed what he said. And she smiled, embarra.s.sed.
“And luckily, you love me too. Actually, I’m quite excited about the registration tomorrow.”
…
It was two o’clock in the afternoon in Jianchuan.
Lu Qianqian informed the board of directors to attend the general meeting. However, she did not tell them the main topic that was to be discussed in the meeting.
The shareholders thought that there was an urgent problem in Lu Holdings, so they all showed up, including the two uncles of the Lu family.
“Chairperson Lu, what is it so urgent? Please tell us now.” The directors were getting impatient.
“There is only one thing to be discussed in this meeting.” Lu Qianqian looked at her youngest uncle with mixed feelings. And she said, “I believe you must have been informed about what happened to my third uncle. His hand was chopped off because of his debt. Now, he is receiving treatment in the hospital. It is an ugly scandal in the Lu family that was not meant to be made known to others. However, this incident has caused another issue that might affect the interest of Lu Holdings. Therefore, I must discuss this in the meeting.”
“Stop beating around the bush already, Chairperson Lu. Just say it.” The directors were anxious.
“Youngest Uncle, I want to know how much you spent to sell the news to the media.” Lu Qianqian questioned her uncle right away.
When the youngest Lu uncle heard his name being mentioned by his niece, he was startled. Then, he shrugged. “What does Third Brother’s debt have to do with me?”
“It is none of your business and I don’t care if you are unwilling to help him. I just want to ask you, why did you leak the news to the media when Third Uncle was being chased by the creditors?”
“Lu Qianqian, you must show proof when you say such things. What do you mean by me leaking the news to the media? Do you have any proof?”
The youngest Lu uncle was so good at denying everything.
“Do you think I would dare to hold this meeting without any proof?” Lu Qianqian took out her mobile and showed the evidence given to her by the reporter. “The bank account is yours, right? The one who went to meet the reporter was you, right? And the draft of the news was prepared by you, right?”
Everyone looked at the evidence in Lu Qianqian’s hands. Then, they casted their eyes on the youngest Lu uncle.
“You are a gentleman on one side but a monster on the other. Don’t you think you are too good at this? Why did you do this? What can you get from exposing Third Uncle’s problem and tarnis.h.i.+ng the reputation of the Lu family? If you want to go against me, please do it openly. Don’t duplicate the keys of my house secretly and put poisonous snakes in my room.”
The youngest Lu uncle’s face turned red. Suddenly, he realized that he was unable to refute a little girl.
“Has he really done that?”
“No way. That’s so wicked.”
The shareholders’ discussion started to heat up.
“Whether he is wicked or not, you can find out after you ask him. So, using what my uncle has done as the reason, I want to propose the removal of my youngest uncle from the board of directors. I hope all shareholders will make their stance in this.”
From Lu Qianqian’s words, the shareholders understood her motive today. She was trying to dismiss the youngest Lu uncle from his post in the board of directors.
When he heard that, the youngest Lu uncle jumped out of his chair. “Lu Qianqian, are you feeling bored? Do you think that you can drive me out of the board of the directors so easily with just this petty thing? No way!”
Lu Qianqian glared at her uncle and smirked. “Petty thing? Have you any idea how big the effect will be on the reputation of Lu Holdings if the incident is made known to others? Do you know how much manpower and resources Lu Holdings will have to use to settle the crisis caused by your vengeful action? You are willing to sacrifice the interests of the shareholders because of your selfishness. If I don’t kick you out of the board of the directors, how can I pacify the other shareholders?”
“So selfish.”
“He’s too much. He bullies the younger and weaker one just because he is her uncle. Why doesn’t he evaluate himself? Who is the one who develops Lu Holdings anyway?”
When the youngest Lu uncle heard the criticism from the shareholders, he felt even angrier and ashamed.
“Lu Qianqian, you are abusing your power to take revenge on me!”
“Dear all directors, please vote on this. I don’t wish to see this man on the board of directors again.” Lu Qianqian ignored her uncle’s protest and initiated the vote. “Please be aware of this. I have no objection if you want to keep this selfish man on the board. But, just remember to guard your wallet. You should just be aware that his skill in creating risk is at a first-cla.s.s level.”
Soon after, it was the time for them to cast their votes. Almost two-thirds of the shareholders agreed with Lu Qianqian’s suggestion.
Seeing the result, the youngest Lu uncle charged at Lu Qianqian. “This doesn’t count! It doesn’t count! You have no right to make me leave!”
Lu Qianqian raised her head and looked at her uncle. “I don’t care about the snakes. But from today onward, if you try to bully my mother and I again, or cause the company trouble again, I will not spare you.”
“Lu Qianqian, I want you to die!”
“Security…” Lu Qianqian got her secretary to call for security right away. And they dragged the youngest Lu uncle out of the meeting room.
Seeing the decisiveness in Lu Qianqian, the people suddenly saw the wisdom of her father and the reason behind his confidence in her.
She did not become timid when faced with problems. In fact, she moved forward with justifiable reasons.
With her courage, the directors were convinced. She might still be young now, but she would definitely be able to heighten the glory of Lu Holdings when she was more mature.
“After this, we hope the Chairperson will mind your own safety, in case someone has some bad intentions.”
“Thank you for your concern. I have my bodyguards,” Lu Qianqian replied.
She knew that skunk would not stop here. However, to protect her mother and the Lu family, there were some decisions that were inevitable.
…
There was a rare silence in the forensics laboratory in the evening.
Feng Shanshan deliberately made a detour to the forensics laboratory to avoid Tang Yan. In her mind, she wondered why all the female police officers went crazy over a man. Were they so dry?
“Professor, Officer Tang is only meant for viewing.”
The professor laughed and asked, “Why?”
“He has such a nice face and body. Why doesn’t he take part in the beauty pageant or become a singer? Instead, he becomes a police officer who does criminal profiling. He has bewitched the staff in the police station until they cannot think straight anymore.”
Feng Shanshan had to admit that she felt a bit disdainful seeing the female police officers admiring him.
Had they never seen a handsome guy?
After hearing her words, the professor was even happier. “Why do you have such a big opinion on Officer Tang?”
Feng Shanshan rolled her eyes. When she was about to answer, a tall figure came out of the small experiment chamber in the laboratory. His face was stiff.
“You don’t like me much, it seems.”
Feng Shanshan was speechless.
