All these years, the veterans of the company had always been very dissatisfied with Xu Mei because she was the third party.
That’s right, Qiao Corporation belonged to Qiao Xi’s mother back then.
However, that woman had been dead for so many years. The company should belong to him and Xu Mei now!
He and Qiao Xi’s mother were husband and wife previously. After she died, she should have left the money and company to him. Moreover, he was with Xu Mei because he had long hated Qiao Xi’s mother.
Qiao Xi originally owned some of these shares. However, with her stubborn character, even if he gave them to her, he would still lose the shares somehow.
Why were these senior figures of the company resisting him?
Qiao Zhenguo was burning with anger. Why would that Gu Corporation care about the Qiao family’s matters?
“Stop arguing! Who exactly has the final say in Qiao Corporation? Rou Rou is the heir! What right do you have to chase her away?”
“Qiao Xi must have played some tricks to get the Gu Corporation to pressurize us. As long as Rou Rou and Mo Ling are married, the Gu family won’t say anything. Let me put this out today—Qiao Corporation won’t be given to Qiao Xi!”
Xu Mei and Qiao Rou looked at each other, smiling in satisfaction.
The veterans were helpless.
After the death of Qiao Rou’s mother, the company was completely under Qiao Zhenguo and Xu Mei’s control. Business was also deteriorating by the day.
Qiao Zhenguo was determined to keep Qiao Rou. Even if he had to lose the entire company, he would not chase the daughter of the mistress away. They could only get up and leave.
At this moment—
“How lively! I happen to want to talk business with you, President Qiao.”
Everyone looked up.
Lu Yan was wearing a suit and looked gentle.
Qiao Zhenguo’s eyes instantly lit up when he saw him. “Mr. Lu!”
When everyone heard that he was Mr. Lu, their hearts jumped.
Precious elements were rare resources that countries fought for, but such resources were only in the hands of Lu Yan and another mysterious person.
They did not know the identity of that mysterious person, so when they needed such precious elements, they could only look for Lu Yan.
Now, Lu Yan actually wanted to discuss business with the Qiao family?
Qiao Rou stared at him, deeply attracted to him…
Qiao Zhenguo and Xu Mei could tell what Qiao Rou was thinking. They hurriedly pulled Qiao Rou along to greet Lu Yan.
“Mr. Lu, let me introduce you to my daughter, Qiao Rou. She’s the heir of Qiao Corporation. Will you let her talk to you about the upcoming collaboration?”
The veterans gasped. President Qiao must be crazy to pass such an important customer to Qiao Rou.
Qiao Rou pretended to be shy and went in front of Lu Yan. “Mr. Lu…”
Lu Yan quietly pulled away and smiled gently. “Qiao Corporation’s heir is Qiao Rou? I’ll take my leave, then.”
The smile on Qiao Rou’s face froze when she heard Lu Yan’s words.
“I didn’t hesitate to go against Gu Corporation in order to negotiate a collaboration with the Qiao family because of Qiao Xi. I think everyone knows that I’ve always hated mistresses and illegitimate children.
“Qiao Rou has always been going against Qiao Xi… I like Qiao Xi very much and plan to pursue her. Everyone and everything that makes Qiao Xi unhappy has to disappear. If Qiao Corporation belongs to Qiao Rou, then the Lu family won’t do business with the Qiao family.”
With that, Lu Yan turned around with a cold expression.
Suddenly, he stopped in her tracks. “Miss Qiao Rou.”
Qiao Rou immediately looked up with tears in her eyes, looking aggrieved.
Lu Yan’s voice was slightly cold. “I heard that you and Gu Moling are already engaged. Please take note of your limits. Don’t stick close to a man when you see him. You’re just like your mother, Xu Mei. I really hate women like you!”
!!
Qiao Rou’s body went soft as her face turned pale.
He… He was actually belittling her!
“Rou Rou! Rou Rou!” Xu Mei’s expression changed drastically. She shouted in horror, “Zhenguo, Rou Rou has fainted!”
Qiao Zhenguo was thinking about what to do when he was shocked by Xu Mei’s voice. He realized that Qiao Rou had fainted and shouted, “Hurry up and call an ambulance!”
Xu Mei gnashed her teeth with hatred. It was all Qiao Xi’s fault! She must make Qiao Xi pay the price!
…
On the other side, Qiao Xi had already received news from Qin An. [Most of the information regarding the Lu family can’t be found, but I found out what happened 20 years ago. I think you’ll be interested.
[Lu Yan is not the biological son of the Lu family but a child who was thrown into the Lu family 20 years ago. Gu Zheng was born on the same day as him.]
Qiao Xi’s expression was strange.
Qin An: [After that, the Lu family adopted Lu Yan. Rumor has it that Lu Yan is Lu Qingyun’s biological son. Previously, Miss Lu did not have a miscarriage but gave birth to this child. She just hid him.]
Qiao Xi raised her eyes to look at Gu Zheng.
Could it be that Lu Yan was the biological son of Chairman Gu and Lu Qingyun?
