Chapter 418: Keep it under my nose

"Mr. An, why are you here? Do you have any important arrangements?" Mu Yuqin put away her phone and returned to her usual smart and capable appearance at work.

Meng Anran had a gentle smile on her lips as she stepped in and casually flipped through the documents on the table. "Come over and inspect the work."

Mu Yuqin nodded in understanding, "Please sit down. I just have something to tell you."

Meng Anran sat down in the office chair. Mu Yuqin quickly tidied up the desk and then sat down in the guest seat.

"I came to see you for two things." Meng Anran crossed her legs, a faint smile on her red lips, "You go first."

Mu Yuqin nodded slightly, pondered for half a second, and then said, "Last night, Karen, the chairman of Wilt Group headquarters, called me and wanted me to take Ruiming's core chip technology with me."

Meng Anran's smile faded and she raised her eyebrows. "Do you agree?"

Mu Yuqin shook her head. "No, I'm sorry for not informing you of this situation immediately."

"It's okay." Meng Anran waved her hand.

It is normal to feel conflicted when faced with temptation, and she was glad that Mu Yuqin took the initiative to tell her about this.

She didn't ask what conditions Wilt had offered Mu Yuqin, as long as Mu Yuqin decided to stay.

"That's it?" She tilted her head.

"Um."

"Okay." Meng Anran turned her head and stretched out her hand to Xiao Li behind her. Xiao Li immediately handed the documents in his hand to her.

"This is for you." Meng Anran spread out the folder and pushed it in front of Mu Yuqin.

Mu Yuqin glanced at the contents of the file with confusion, and her pupils suddenly dilated.

The group's board of directors decided to grant her 0.3% of restricted shares, with a five-year vesting period and 20% unlocked each year.

Of course, this is accompanied by a series of performance conditions, including group profit growth, stock price performance, and the achievement of personal strategic goals.

Generally speaking, this is good news for Mu Yuqin. She had worked in a foreign-funded trading company for twelve years and served as COO for four years. She was just an employee and had never received any stocks.

Now that you have joined Ruiming, as long as you work for five years and achieve the performance goals, you can get 0.3% of the stocks!

"Since you've only just joined the company, the board of directors has decided to use RSUs as an incentive, allowing you to receive a certain amount of dividends on a regular basis."

Meng Anran twirled the pen between her fingers and said leisurely, "When you settle down in the company, I will discuss equity rewards with the board of directors and shareholders based on your performance."

"Thank you, Mr. An. I will do my best to generate revenue for the group." Mu Yuqin now felt like the day had dawned.

There's a sense of relief that comes from being a slave for more than ten years and finally making it out of this.

"Don't thank me yet. The betting agreement is at the back. Please read it carefully before signing." Meng Anran took out the pen and placed it in front of her.

Mu Yuqin turned to the next page and carefully read the bet agreement, which basically stated the target requirements for the group's future market value growth.

She has to meet the requirements to receive the stock award.

After reading it, she felt confident that she could complete the IPO, so she signed.

"Okay, there's one more thing." Meng Anran closed the folder and handed it to Xiao Li. At the same time, he took the envelope from the other's hand and placed it in front of Mu Yuqin.

Mu Yuqin looked at Meng Anran in confusion, "What is this?"

"I heard your son wants to study in Country B. I just stopped by Huajing University to have a cup of tea with the president. Your son has good grades in all subjects and a high GPA."

Meng Anran tapped the envelope with her fingertips. "This is the acceptance letter faxed back from the most famous financial school in Country B. They've agreed to let Mu Yuan enroll as a two-year exchange student."

Mu Yuqin was shocked. The light envelope felt heavy in her hand. The incentive contract just now did not make her happier than this acceptance letter.

Her eyes were moist, and she looked at Meng Anran with great gratitude, "Thank you, Mr. An."

"You're welcome. It's just a piece of cake." Meng Anran smiled gently. "Once you're here, Ruiming is your family. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can tell me. I have a wide network of contacts."

After finishing the discussion, Meng Anran left the president's office.

Xiao Li followed her closely, wondering, "Boss, did you know that Wilt had contacted Mu Yuqin a long time ago?"

"I don't know." Meng Anran shrugged. "But it doesn't stop me from trying to get some benefits for her. She's quite capable at work, and it would be a good thing for Ruiming to keep her here."

Xiao Li nodded, not quite understanding.

The boss has always liked to fight for women's rights. All female employees in the group can give full play to their strengths and get the due rewards.

It is understandable that the boss is willing to spend more time and effort on a single mother like Mu Yuqin who is capable and has a hard life.

"By the way," Meng Anran suddenly stopped and ordered, "Go to the Chip Research Institute and find Director Liang. Tell him that I want to move the institute back to the group building."

"Huh?" Xiao Li was stunned for a moment. "Is it so sudden?"

"Yes, and by the way, find someone to reinstall the top floor. The R&D center must be under my supervision."

Xiao Li: "...Okay, I'll do it right away."

At six o'clock in the evening, the lights come on.

Airport Boulevard was still jammed with traffic, and the warm yellow street lights illuminated the travelers returning home, but for some reason, a sense of loneliness was revealed.

Qin Mu leaned against the business car, drinking coffee and chatting with Meng Anran.

His Maybach was parked not far away and was being watched by several young men with backpacks on their backs.

Soon, a man and a woman dressed in bright and beautiful clothes came out dragging suitcases.

There was only half a meter between them, but it felt like a galaxy was stretching across them.

Meng Anran stood up, handed the coffee to the driver, and walked towards Meng Zhen.

Qin Mu followed closely behind.

One took Meng Zhen away, and the other took Xiao Han away.

After getting on the business car, Meng Zhen saw her sister, and the tears she had been holding back all the way fell uncontrollably.

Meng Anran said nothing and asked nothing. She handed over a pack of tissues and sat quietly beside him, continuing to sip her coffee.

She doesn't know how to comfort people, especially those who have been heartbroken.

No amount of words can be more effective than crying.

In the Maybach, Xiao Han sat in the passenger seat, rubbed his short hair that had turned brown, looked out the window in annoyance, and sighed.

Qin Mu noticed the dark circles under his eyes, silently withdrew his gaze and looked at the road ahead, and asked casually: "Are you not asleep?"

"I couldn't sleep." Xiao Han opened his iced coffee and took a sip, his mind clearing up considerably. "I'm sorry for waking you up in the middle of the night."

Qin Mu tapped his fingertips unconsciously on the steering wheel. "Didn't you call her because you knew she wouldn't be angry?"

Xiao Han's position in Meng Anran's heart is definitely no less than that of her best friend Liu Zhi.

If you can wake up someone's friendship by calling them at three or four in the morning, why bother saying "sorry"?
