Chapter 517 Shi Nuan The Main Shareholder
Read Novel I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 517
The hair on Zhou Zheng's back stood on end upon seeing Shen Shixiu tenderly looking at Shi Nuan. The way he looked at Shen Shixiu was extremely hostile as if he was
going to fight with the latter in no time. Even Shi Nuan could sense the menacing aura emanating from Zhou Zheng.
At that moment, Shi Nuan held her forehead in exasperation. Feeling embarrassed by Zhou Zheng's behavior, she flashed a look at Shen Shixiu and noticed that he was smiling at her. Wow! Is he trying to provoke and incite Zhou Zheng? Shi Nuan could not help but click her tongue in annoyance. Is he doing it on purpose?
Then, she looked at Zhou Zheng, who was on the verge of exploding. Seeing this, she found it amusing.
At that moment, all Zhou Zheng was thinking was that he needed to protect his employer's wife. I'm responsible for taking care of Mrs. Fu since Mr. Fu is not here.
"Let's go. It's almost time."
Shen Shixiu was not interested in picking a fight with Fu Chengyan's assistant. He could not care less about those puny matters.
Shi Nuan nodded in agreement. Then, she followed Shen Shixiu and asked, "What's on your mind, Shixiu?"
Shen Shixiu knew Shi Nuan was the main shareholder of Huancheng. He turned around and looked at her side profile.
I can tell that Fu Chengyan is treating her well. It seemed like she's gained weight after her pregnancy when I first saw her. Hmm, I think she must be living a good life now. Thinking of this, Shen Shixiu felt a gaze on him. Helpless, he shook his head quietly and paused before glancing at Shi Nuan. "What's wrong with your assistant?"
Hearing his complaint, Shi Nuan could not help but let out chuckles. "It's fine. Don't mind him, Shixiu."
Shen Shixiu nodded slightly in response. "Huancheng is a shell company now. However, I think not many of them know about this. Didn't Fu Chengyan tell you anything about it before you came?" Shen Shixiu believed that Fu Chengyan was a reliable and responsible man, so the former thought the latter must have already told Shi Nuan. Plus, it was not that easy to make the other shareholders leave, even though Huancheng had become a shell company. Hence, Shen Shixiu had prepared himself before he came. Also, he believed that Fu Chengyan was capable enough to have done something about it and would never let Shi Nuan face the issue and the shareholders alone.
Shi Nuan smiled faintly after hearing Shen Shixiu's words. "Yan is busy today, but he's asked his assistant to come with me. I believe Zhou Zheng doesn't deserve to work with Yan anymore if he can't handle this trivial matter."
Shen Shixiu nodded in understanding. "Right."
Hearing that his name had been mentioned, Zhou Zheng had an inkling that it was nothing good, although he could not hear what Shen Shixiu and Shi Nuan were saying.
Meanwhile, Jiang Zhan, following Shen Shixiu, leaned closer to Zhou Zheng and said,
"Hmm, are you holding some hostile thoughts against Mr. Shen, Zhou Zheng?"
Zhou Zheng sneered coldly at Jiang Zhan. He maintained an unfriendly temperament against Shen Shixiu and his assistant. "No, I wouldn't dare."
Jiang Zhan laughed. "You don't have to act like this, Zhou Zheng. Mr. Shen is an upright man."
Haha!
After Shi Nuan and Shen Shixiu arrived at Huancheng, it created a commotion as the two strangers stepped into the building together.
It was mainly because the chairman of the company had just passed away. Plus, it was the shareholders' meeting. Seeing them walking in together, the employees of Huancheng were in a state of turmoil. They could not help but feel worried about the future of the company. It appeared serene and peaceful on the surface. However, it was a severe issue for Huancheng. Moreover, the senior executives heard something, but they were only guessing and could not be sure of it.
Hence, everyone wanted to grab this opportunity and attend the shareholders' meeting to know the current situation of Huancheng and see what its future held.
Every shareholder had arrived and taken their seats in the conference room. There were only two empty seats. It piqued their curiosity upon seeing this, and they could not help but start gossiping about the identity of the two shareholders.
The ones who sided with Shi Jingzheng already knew who the remaining ones were. On the other hand, those sitting on the fence had zero ideas.
The conference room was not quiet. It was full of discussion noises instead. However, it went silent after a while.
The door of the conference room was pushed open at that moment. Zhou Zheng and Jiang Zhan led the way, and the ones who appeared after that were Shi Nuan and Shen Shixiu.
The crowd was startled upon seeing Shi Nuan. Then, the room was abuzz with comments. "Isn't she Old Mr. Shi's granddaughter?"
"Pfft! What granddaughter?"
"Yeah! She's not Old Mr. Shi's granddaughter at all. She's not even a member of the Shi family!"
"Then, what is she doing here?"
"Oh, who's the man beside her?"
"Yeah, right! Who is he? He looks familiar..."
"Isn't he Shi Yu?"
"No, it can't be Shi Yu! He's Shen Shixiu, isn't he? He's Shen Shixiu!"
When Shi Nuan and Shen Shixiu entered the conference room, everyone's attention fell on them. Meanwhile, Shi Jingzheng, sitting at one side, clenched his armrest tightly. His expression went dark upon seeing them.
He had never expected Shi Nuan and Shen Shixiu to attend the shareholders' meeting. What's wrong with Zhang Quan?
While Shi Jingzheng was deep in his thought, Zhang Quan entered the room. He was slightly astonished to see Shi Nuan and Shen Shixiu had already arrived. Then, he asked, "Why didn't the two of you tell me that you're here? I thought you haven't arrived."
Shi Nuan smiled. "Hi, Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Quan nodded in response. "All right. Please take a seat."
Shi Nuan and Shen Shixiu glanced around the room and noticed the two empty seats at the far end of the room. Shi Nuan stood there and raised her eyebrow at Zhang Quan.
The opened his briefcase helplessly and said, "Well, I'm the lawyer whom the chairman of Huancheng, Shi Yunsheng, hired. I've already read and explained Shi Yunsheng's will a few days earlier at the Shi residence. Now, I'll be doing what Old Mr. Shi had entrusted me to do in the shareholders' meeting today."
Zhang Quan took out the documents and the share transfer agreement from his briefcase. Then, he continued, "The chairman of Huancheng, Old Mr. Shi, had transferred five percent of his shares to Shi Yu, who is also Shen Shixiu, the man standing beside me. The rest of Old Mr. Shi's shares belong to the lady beside me, Su
Nuan. From now on, Ms. Su Nuan will be the main shareholder of Huancheng. According to the previous chairman's will, Su Nuan will be the new chairman of Huancheng because she holds the largest amoun of shares in this company. Is there any question you would like to ask?"
"I disagree!"
A man sitting beside Shi Jingzheng jolted up from his seat. Then, he shot icy daggers at
Shi Nuan and Zhang Quan before saying, "I think you're mistaken, Mr. Zhang. S-Su Nuan is not a part of the Shi family. How can Old Master Shi hand his shares over to an outsider?"
"Yeah, he's right!" The others in the room agreed one after another upon hearing this. "Something seems fishy here! Shi Jingzheng, the General Manager of Huancheng, is the biological son of Old Mr. Shi. How can he not get any shares?"
More and more questions flooded in. Zhang Quan adjusted his glasses and said calmly,
"You can verify it if you don't trust what's written on the previous chairman's will. I'm not afraid of anything. Furthermore, I can present the evidence to you if you've got any queries."
After his voice fell, he looked at his assistant, who stood behind him. Sensing his gaze, the assistant quickly asked, "Is there any DVD player or projector here?" The assistant held a USB drive and continued, "Old Mr. Shi had recorded the evidence and the discussion between Mr. Zhang and himself in it before his passing. You can watch it if you have got doubts."
After the assistant found a DVD player, he played it in the conference room. Everyone watched it silently. At that moment, Old Master Shi's face appeared instantly on the screen. He looked energetic at that time. In other words, he had already set up his will a long time ago.
Old Master Shi looked conscious and alert in the video. Zhang Quan even interrupted Old Master Shi a few times while the latter was writing his will. Zhang Quan was doing this because he wanted Old Master Shi to verify his decision. In the recording, Old Master Shi insisted that he wanted to transfer his shares to Shi Nuan and Shen Shixiu. He stated his decision without hesitation.
Toward the end of the video, Old Master Shi could not care less about his mansions and savings, wanting to transfer the ownership of his properties to his sons and daughters-in-law. Although Shi Nuan was not there when Shi Yunsheng wrote his will, he said some words as if he was talking to Shi Nuan. "I think I'll no longer be here when you see my will, Nuan. This is what I can give you as a form of protection. Also, I want you to do one last thing for me. Save Huancheng no matter what!"
Tears flowed down Shi Nuan's face when she finished watching the recording. Shi Yunsheng looked energetic at that time. She was sure that he had recorded it a long time ago. In other words, it meant that he already perceived Huancheng's losses due to embezzlement. Had Old Mr. Shi already prepared for it at that time? He wouldn't be doing it if it weren't the case.
Zhang Quan turned around and was somewhat moved by Shi Nuan's crying. "Deepest condolences, Ms. Su."
Shi Nuan said faintly, "Did Granddad set up his will a long time ago? When did he write it? Why don't I know anything about this?"
"He did that roughly half a year ago. Old Master Shi looked for me and made the decision to write his will. Initially, Mr. Shen was not a part of Old Master Shi's will. Two months ago, Old Mr. Shi looked for me again and asked me to revise the will, ordering me to transfer the five percent of his shares to Mr. Shen."
Zhang Quan knew Shen Shixiu, and he understood why Shi Yunsheng did this.
Although Huancheng was a relatively small-scale business, Shi Yunsheng was still a visionary and calculative man. If Shen Shixiu could manage Huancheng earlier before Shi Jingzheng's control, Huancheng would not end up in a mess.
Shen Shixiu closed his eyes, recalling the time when he met up with Shi Yunsheng.
Had he already planned to drag me into these troubled waters since the last time we met? How did he know I would interfere in this issue? Is it because of Shi Nuan?
Amused, Shen Shixiu's gaze fell on Shi Nuan.
Haha! How calculative and wily Old Master Shi is!
Startled, Shi Nuan looked at Shen Shixiu and saw he was smiling. Embarrassed, she said, "Shixiu, I didn't know Granddad..."
"It's fine. I owe Old Master Shi a debt of gratitude. I'll be more than happy to help out if Huancheng faces anything."
Hearing his words, Shi Nuan believed that Shen Shixiu would not simply make a rash move. "Thank you, Shixiu!"
