The company’s shareholders had a good impression with Lu Xinyi not only because she was the daughter of Sun Meixiu who had managed to enhance and strengthen the performance of County A Branch of Sun Corporation in less than two years. It was also because of Lu Xinyi’s ability to save Flair Apparel on its brink of bankruptcy.
Most of them knew how Flair Apparel almost closed its doors to the market, but with Lu Xinyi’s help, the dying business managed to stay afloat and even soar within a year. Moreover, there was no sign that they’d fall anytime soon.
At the moment, the shareholders looked at her and calmed down.
Lu Xinyi had received the information across this year and last year’s reports, Sun Corporation’s poor management had been going on for some time—even before Sun Mingai and Sun Feiyan returned from overseas.
“We should discuss this later. Shouldn’t we celebrate that Blue Icon and Sun Corporation finally reached an agreement?” Sun Mingai interceded.
Sun Feiyan agreed to her aunt and stared at Lu Xinyi blankly.
Lu Xinyi raised a brow. It seemed that this cousin of hers wasn’t as dumb as Qiyan. Did she know what would happen today?
In the name of Zheng Ning, Sun Corporation and Blue Icon—a sh.e.l.l company made by her and Shen Yi—engaged orderly. Sun Mingai’s asking price shot down to 5 billion dollars from the initial 10 billion.
The deal was closed, and the two parties signed the agreement today. Lu Xinyi practically owned the whole Sun Corporation by now.
Debating who should lead the company was pointless right now because the owner had sneaked in and hadn’t uttered a single word as the shareholders quarreled with each other.
Within a few minutes, Zheng Ning appeared and entered the conference room. The man took a secretive glance at her before taking his seat opposite Sun Mingai. Soon after he entered, they signed the contract, stood up, and shook hands.
Loud applause was followed. The shareholders celebrated until the ceremony ended. Neither chose to leave the room until Lu Xinyi stood up as if ready to leave. While speaking to Zheng Ning, Sun Mingai glanced at her niece and chuckled. Her eyes gleamed with satisfaction before turning her attention back at Zheng Ning.
However, instead of leaving, Lu Xinyi strode towards Zheng Ning and greeted him.
“Mr. Zheng,” she said with a slight nod.
Sun Mingai had just sipped her tea from her cup when Lu Xinyi came forward. She was confused as to what her niece was planning; neither did she have an idea if Lu Xinyi knew Zheng Ning.
“Milady, it was nice to finally meet you in person.” Zheng Ning stood and shook hands with Lu Xinyi. Throughout the ordeal, Shen Yi was the one whom he’d talked to, and he’d been curious what kind of woman the demon king married.
“I’m sorry for troubling you, Mr. Zheng.” Lu Xinyi responded politely.
“This… do you know each other?” her aunt asked confusedly, but Lu Xinyi only gave her a shallow smile. Sun Mingai realized that a single smile from her niece could actually be interpreted into a variety of expressions. She wasn’t alone; the other shareholders were also curious about it.
Zheng Ning then turned to Sun Mingai.
“Lady Sun, let me introduce you…” He paused to look at Lu Xinyi’s face. “…Miss Lu is the boss of the Blue Icon.”
Bang!
The teacup from Sun Mingai’s hand fell down on the floor with her tea spilled all over the place. She jolted up from her seat and stared at her niece with wide eyes.
However, Lu Xinyi’s expression remained the same. She crossed her arms over her chest.
“h.e.l.lo, Lady Sun. Nice to meet you,” she said as if meeting Sun Mingai the first time.
Sun Feiyan was sitting in her place, watching the drama unfold in front of her. This time, she looked up to see the sinister smile on Lu Xinyi’s face. This devil had made her kill, forcing Sun Mingai to give up.
Ads by PubFuture “Lu Xinyi!” Sun Mingai’s piercing scream resounded within the conference room.
Within a day, the Sun Corporation was turned upside down, and Lu Xinyi’s deception took over as the newest CEO of Sun Corporation filled the news. The media and the public’s eye were back on her.
It was only been months since she became the talk of the town for being Shen Yi’s wife. Now, she caught everyone off-guard by deceiving her own aunt to take over the management of Sun Corporation.
Immediately, Sun Mingai was disposed of from her position, and Lu Xinyi sat officially as the CEO of the company, with Sun Feiyan being her Deputy CEO during her absence. This infuriated her aunt to death, but the shareholders thought that it was a good idea instead. Even the board of directors voted in favor of Lu Xinyi.
Lu Xinyi entered the CEO’s office and asked the secretary to remove her aunt’s belongings. Her finger ran lightly at the table before taking a seat. As expected, Sun Mingai stormed inside the office, with Sun Feiyan following after her.
“Lady Sun, do you need something?” The little devil crossed her legs and rested her chin on her propped hand.
“You dare to trick me?! Lu Xinyi, did you come here on purpose to steal my thunder? Very good. Very good. You fooled me well, niece,” Sun Mingai said, seething in anger.
“Lady Sun, what are you talking about?” Lu Xinyi blinked, feigning innocence and tilted her head slightly. “Do you think I’m that kind of person who acts with ulterior motives like you?”
Lu Xinyi enjoyed seeing her aunt like this. Wasn’t this the reason why her mother died in vain? Sun Mingai had taken away her happiness at her young age. Taking over the company that her aunt had long coveted, this wouldn’t be enough to pay for her sins.
“Do you think someone like you would be able to save the company? You aren’t your mother!” The woman was shaking with anger. She’d never been humiliated like this in her life.
