When Lv Xiaoru said this, Chen Huiqiang was also very angry. “I don’t care about my daughter? You spoiled her so much that she dares to do anything. Now our company is going bankrupt because of her. What can I do?”
Lv Xiaoru replied angrily. “You never care about our daughter but I do! Am I wrong? She’s my only dear daughter. Of course, I want to give her the best.”
Chen Huiqiang became angrier. “You are simply spoiling her rotten! Look at what kind of person your good daughter has become! She has become more frightening than I thought. She is now completely unscrupulous!”
“What do you mean that I spoil her rotten? Sounds like she is not your daughter! I love her so much and don’t want her to be like this.”
They didn’t want to fight with each other anymore. So, neither of them said a word. They both hoped that Chen Qian would get better soon. They thus stayed at Chen Qian’s bedside all the night.
Chen Qian slept well that night. When waking up in the morning, she saw her parents. “Where am I? Dad, mom, why are you all here?”
Lv Xiaoru replied, “Qian, you are just sick and need to stay here for a while for observation. We can go home in a couple of days.”
Chen Qian didn’t seem to know why she was in hospital. After hearing these words, she curled up in the corner and kept repeating. “I don’t want to stay in hospital. I don’t want to stay in hospital!”
Hearing that she was in hospital, Chen Qian, already unstable, began to struggle to escape, saying frantically, “I am not sick. I don’t want to be here.”
Soon, doctors and nurses rushed over and gave Chen Qian a tranquilizer to calm her down. A doctor said to Chen Huiqiang and Lv Xiaoru. “You two come out. I have something to tell you.”
Chen Huiqiang and Lv Xiaoru went out of the ward. The doctor said, “Your daughter is in an unstable situation. You must not stimulate her anymore.”
Chen Huiqiang and Lv Xiaoru promised the doctor, “We will pay attention to it. Doctor, when will our daughter get better?”
“That depends on herself. We can’t guarantee you this. Everyone’s psychological endurance is different, so it all depends on herself.”
Chen Huiqiang and Lv Xiaoru walked into the ward, looked at Chen Qian, and sighed. At this moment, they felt very uneasy. They only hoped that Chen Qian would get better soon.
Chen Huiqiang was worrying about his daughter when he received a call from his secretary. He was told that shareholders were waiting for his explanation.
“What snobs!” Chen Huiqiang was now unable to find any solution.
Chen Huiqiang was anxious after hanging up. He knew that shareholders would not let him off easily. Since the company suffered such a heavy loss this time, they would definitely ask for an explanation.
He told Lv Xiaoru, “Take care of our daughter. The shareholders are asking for an explanation. I have to go back to deal with it now.”
Lv Xiaoru was also very anxious when she heard about this. She knew that Chen Huiqiang was under great pressure recently. He was busy after the company suffered a great blow. Besides, he also had to care about their daughter. Now shareholders were here. She was pretty worried about her husband.
Lv Xiaoru knew she couldn’t help much, so she helped Chen Huiqiang straighten up his clothes. She said, “I will take care of our daughter. Don’t worry. You can go ahead.”
Chen Huiqiang hasted downstairs and got to the company. The moment he entered the company, his secretary said to him, “President Chen, the shareholders are waiting for you in the conference room. Please hurry.”
Chen Huiqiang entered the office, seeing all shareholders sitting there waiting for him. As soon as he sat down, they began to fire questions at him.
They asked him why so many cooperation cases had been snatched by Mo’s family even though Chen’s family and Mo’s family were friends for generations. They also asked how Chen Huiqiang was going to do after the company suffered such a blow.
Chen Huiqiang was overwhelmed by these questions. When the company was in good condition, these people would flatter him. But once the company entered into bad situation, they all came to question him.
Despite this, Chen Huiqiang still forced himself to be calm. He answered the shareholders’ questions and explained to them one by one. Finally, he also assured them that he would quickly get the company back on track.
“How could you do that? Do you think we are unaware of the situation of the company because we are not here?”
“That’s right. If you could get the company back on track, why didn’t you do it earlier?” A group of people kept asking Chen Huiqiang.
Chen Huiqiang had to force a smile. “I assure you that the crisis has passed. And I will definitely handle the company’s affairs properly.” Chen Huiqiang could only try to calm shareholders down. If they withdrew their capital, there would be no way to save the company even if he had great abilities.
“Within three months, I will definitely get the company out of this crisis. In one year, I will lead the company to return to its previous strength. If I fail, I will resign as chairman. How about that, everyone?”
Hearing the words, their anger gradually subsided. In fact, Chen Huiqiang also understood their feelings. Everyone would feel distressed at the thought of their money evaporating. After all, money didn’t grow on trees.
Chen Huiqiang’s words satisfied the shareholders. He nodded and bowed, sending them away one by one. He felt exhausted recently for what had happened to the company and his daughter. He felt for the first time that his energy was not enough.
He slumped back in the chair and pinched the part between his eyebrows. He felt that his energy was not enough recently. He was so tired and busy every day that he was in no mood for caring about other things.
Yesterday Li Yunhong told him that Mo Yichen had agreed not to hold Chen Qian accountable, which was a great relief. He was really afraid that Mo Yichen would call the police. He didn’t want Chen Qian to be hurt like that.
Chen Huiqiang felt more comfortable because an important issue was settled. He didn’t wish that Mo Yichen would let go of his company. After all, the die was now cast. It would be impossible for Mo Yichen to take back his words.
After a period of treatment in hospital, Chen Qian gradually got better. Chen Huiqiang took her home at the doctor’s suggestion.
