Chapter 275: Escape from the Mountains (56)
"can."
Chen Xianhe looked up at Xiaocao. Against the light, his eyes were moist and the figure in front of him was blurry.
"But I have conditions."
"I should take back what Grandpa gave you, but since this is Grandpa's will, I can't force you to take it back."
Chen Xianhe quickly said, "No, no! I, I'll ask them to give all of my brother's inheritance to Shanshan!"
"Okay, that depends on whether your sincerity is as great as your guilt. But that's the condition you set. My request is that my uncle transfer all 3% of his shares to me."
According to the company's articles of association, a 1% stake gives one the right to sue and propose shares, while a 5% stake in a listed company meets the threshold and qualifies one for membership on the board of directors.
Given Chen Bingrui's ambition, since he already holds 3% of the shares, he will definitely not give up so easily.
She would not kill this family completely. She would take back the scattered inheritance, but she must take back the shares.
Chen Xianhe was stunned when he heard this.
Xiao Cao looked at Chen Xianhe and chuckled, "Why, you don't want to? Do you think your son's years of hard work for Yinghua have been wasted?"
"Uncle, do you know what the greatest wealth grandpa left to my uncle is?"
"It's not inheritance, nor is it shares. It's the cultivation of him by my grandfather over the years that has broadened his horizons."
"If Grandpa didn't exist, could you, a farmer like you, have helped him cross the social ladder and become the CEO of a large company?"
"If my uncle is truly capable, he will shine wherever he goes, but from now on, don't even think about getting involved in Yinghua."
...
Three days later, Chen Xianhe brought his two sons to Luyuan and handed the equity transfer agreement to Xiaocao.
Xiaocao glanced at the expressionless Chen Bingrui and the indignant Chen Binghua, and fiddled with a few pages of the transfer agreement with his fingers.
Li Yanshu was in the garden with his mother-in-law Chen Shanshan basking in the sun. Through the open stained glass window, he saw Xiaocao sitting on the sofa in the living room, and Chen Xianhe, Chen Bingrui and Chen Binghua were all standing opposite her.
He lowered his eyelids, not knowing how to express his current mood.
The elders inside are all the people who have watched him grow up since he was a child.
But this was a private disagreement within his wife's family. If he intervened, it would inevitably make Xiaocao unhappy.
But seeing the three elders like this, he couldn't bear it.
After the three of them left, Li Yanshu and Chen Shanshan returned to the living room together.
The agreement had been taken away by the secretary. Xiaocao knew what he was thinking at a glance.
Li Yanshu has a gentle personality and is also more emotional and soft-hearted when dealing with many things.
Fortunately, he is not a confused person and will not rely on his status to talk to her.
When Li Yanshu came over, Xiaocao took his hand and said with a smile, "I'll be a little busy for a while, so we might not be able to have a honeymoon this year."
"It's okay." Li Yanshu smiled.
...
When Chen Bingrui returned home, he saw Ding Min comforting Chen Jiahui.
The bright red slap mark on my daughter's face had not yet disappeared, and tears were streaming down her face.
Chen Bingrui sighed, walked into Chen Jiahui's room, sat beside the bed and wanted to stroke his daughter's head.
Chen Jiahui saw him and dodged his hand.
The slap on her face was given by Chen Bingrui.
"...It's Dad's fault."
After a long time, Chen Bingrui sighed again.
Chen Jiahui pursed her lips and didn't want to look at Chen Bingrui.
Ding Min had a worried look on her face. She had originally blamed her husband for being too harsh, but she also felt sorry for his situation.
"Dad knows you're standing up for me, but you shouldn't talk back to Grandpa so loudly. You should respect your elders, okay?"
Chen Xianhe asked Chen Bangrui to give his shares to Xiaocao. Chen Jiahui immediately got angry and questioned her grandfather why he did this. The more he spoke, the more outrageous he became. In a fit of rage, Chen Bangrui slapped Chen Jiahui.
Although Chen Bingrui did not understand his father's request, he had to agree because of Chen Xianhe's tough attitude and almost threatened to commit suicide.
Ding Min patted Chen Jiahui's shoulder and sighed, "These are all matters of the elders. Why are you so angry? Why are you even following your father's example and resigning..."
Chen Jiahui's muffled voice came from under the quilt: "The company belongs to Xiaocao anyway, and I'll just be laughed at if I stay there."
"Do you think everyone is so free? They don't work and just stare at you and make fun of you?"
When Ding Min saw her daughter like this, she thought that she had not grown up yet and her mentality was still that of a child.
Chen Bingrui lowered his eyelids and said slowly, "Alright, I'm not in a legitimate position to begin with. Anyway, don't mess with her anymore in the future."
He was right in judging people. Chen Shanshan's daughter was no ordinary person.
I don’t know what my father talked to her about that made my father force him.
From now on, he will have no chance to work at Yinghua, but he wants to see how a girl in her twenties can run the group!
-
As the end of the year approaches, the southern city of S has ushered in a long-awaited cold wave, and it has been drizzling for several days.
Li Yanshu and Xiaohua were both on winter vacation, but Xiaocao stayed at his post until the last day and only returned to Xinghewan on New Year's Eve.
Xiaohua, Chen Shanshan and Li Yanshu's parents were all brought to Xinghewan to have the New Year's Eve dinner together.
After Chen Xianhua's death, the two families were completely separated.
Xiaohua didn't understand the twists and turns involved, she just vaguely felt that her two uncles were unhappy because her sister took the position of chairman.
The Li family had heard some rumors, but this was an internal matter of the Chen family and they had no right to interfere.
"Xiaohua is taking the college entrance exam soon, right?" Yu Xi asked, "Do you have a target school in mind?"
Xiaohua nodded and said, "I want to go to the Film School of University A."
Yu Xi and Li Yunhang looked at each other, then asked, "Do you want to learn acting?"
Xiaohua had filmed a period drama when she was in the second grade of junior high school. The ratings of that drama were pretty good, and the actress who played the heroine is now the best actress in mainland China.
Although Xiaohua never filmed a movie again after that, she became extremely curious about this matter.
Li's parents have been scholars for generations and have deep stereotypes about the entertainment industry. They all frowned after hearing this.
Seeing Xiaohua's enthusiasm, Yu Xi didn't want to discourage her, so she said, "The entertainment industry is different now than it was before. Back then, everyone treated filming and performing purely as their job."
"It's too chaotic and complicated now, and we need to consider it carefully."
Xiaohua nodded and looked at Xiaocao.
Xiaocao didn't say anything, just smiled and picked up a piece of mutton for her with chopsticks.
Xiaohua then understood that her sister supported her choice.
Capital is king in the entertainment industry. Xiaocao has the ability to help his sister succeed in the circle, so there is naturally no need to worry.
After dinner, Li’s parents left Xinghewan.
Xiaohua and Chen Shanshan stayed overnight at Xinghewan. The three of them slept together at night, as if they were back in the days when they were in Xiaoba Village.
Xiaohua asked Xiaocao if she wanted to go to her uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow.
Xiao Cao said, "Tomorrow we will go to the countryside to pay New Year's greetings to Li Yanshu's grandparents. I won't go to my uncle's house."
Xiaohua asked, "Sister, will you stop associating with them in the future?"
Xiaocao responded.
"What should Mom do then?"
"If they are thoughtful, they will come to wish us a happy new year."
