At my ex-boyfriend's engagement banquet, I appeared in full attire. He thought I was there to cause trouble, but I smiled very kindly and said, "We'll all be family from now on, no need...
Chapter 921 I Can Fight
Xiao Shiqiu's expression turned stern, "Fifth Uncle, this is my own company. I can give the shares to anyone I want. As long as the shareholders' meeting agrees, it's fine. You don't need to worry about it.
I brought my wife back today to see grandpa and dad, not to discuss this with you.
Regarding equity matters, I only discuss them at the shareholders’ meeting.”
He even gave everyone the opportunity to participate in the discussion. He is a very nice person.
Soon, he overturned my idea again.
Just as everyone was discussing this with unhappy faces, he suddenly smiled slyly at me and whispered, "Their shareholding is too small to qualify for the shareholders' meeting."
I couldn't help but laugh. My previous thought was too hasty. "But why are they so obsessed with you giving me a share of my shares? I didn't ask for any."
He leaned close to my ear and said, "Grandpa once said that when a daughter-in-law of the Xiao family comes into the family, she must not feel like an outsider, so she must be given a portion of the shares."
No wonder He Qingrong also got one at that time.
Seeing that everyone was still discussing it, and Third Uncle was still talking to Old Man Xiao about verifying the bloodline, Xiao Shiqiu said with a cold face and impatience, "Why are you all so worried about me? I tell you," he hugged me and said word by word, "As long as it's her child, I will recognize it! Even if she adopts it, I will recognize it. As long as she recognizes it, I will recognize it!"
The whole audience was silent.
Everyone looked at us in shock, but I was different. I was the only one looking at him in shock.
What did Xiao Shiqiu mean by that? Could I cheat on him? Could I just not have another child and just pick one up?
Old Master Xiao couldn't stand it any longer and came out to calm the situation, "Xiao Qiu, don't talk nonsense, Xiao Yu Mao is not that kind of child, how could she give birth to a child that is not yours.
You are such a grown man, but you still can't talk straight."
Xiao Shiqiu, however, acted nonchalant and said, "Grandpa, I'm serious, you..."
"Okay, okay, okay~ I don't want to bother with you. If only your grandma were still here, she would slap you in the face." Old Master Xiao waved his hand to interrupt, not wanting to listen to his grandson's nonsense anymore.
Xiao Shiqiu knew when to stop, and the others also realized that this topic could not be discussed any further, so they all shut up wisely.
However, when they saw that the shares issue was not a possibility, the people from the other two houses immediately changed their strategy.
The fifth uncle was silent for a while, coughed and came back on stage.
He pretended to be concerned and said, "Shiqiu, we don't mean to interfere with your decision. It's just that our Xiao family's company is so big now that you can't manage it alone. You just got married, so you must spend some time with your wife and go out for a honeymoon to relax.
Why not give your brothers a chance and let them help you.
You see, Shiming studied business administration abroad, which is a perfect fit for him. How about…"
Xiao Shiqiu sneered, "Fifth Uncle, what school did Shiming go to? Do you still remember?"
"Of course I remember, it's the Lion City International Management Institute! Although Lion City is a small place, it is a developed country, much more advanced than ours. Their management experience is definitely better than that in China." Uncle Wu said with pride.
Although I have never heard of this school, the name sounds like a fake university.
Xiao Shiqiu smiled faintly, "Sorry, although STG is not one of the Fortune 500, we are very strict in selecting people. Anyone who doesn't come from a small school can join as a manager."
Uncle Wu was anxious. "No, how can Lion City International Management College be a second-rate school? I heard from Shiming that your company has a new manager who originally studied farming in Japan! If you can use people like that, why can't you use your own brothers?"
Yes, I know that Shiming was not good at studying when he was young. Boys tend to be sensible later. After going abroad, he knew how to study hard.
Look, he already has his degree and diploma, while other kids took four years to get them, but he only took two and a half years. This shows he’s actually quite smart…”
Uncle Wu was still rambling on about his good family background, but I was curious again: STG is also entering the agricultural sector? Why is there a Japanese farmer who studied farming as a manager?
I whispered to him, "What's with that guy who studied farming in Japan? Are you planning on going into agriculture?"
Xiao Shiqiu had a smile in his eyes, but he tried hard to suppress it before saying, "Manager Zhang from the Commerce Department graduated from Waseda University."
Well, as the name suggests, Uncle Wu’s ability is pretty good.
Everyone in the living room was still making a lot of noise, saying all sorts of things. Old Master Xiao decided he couldn't stand it anymore and shouted with full energy, "Alright, everyone, shut up!"
The living room suddenly became quiet and everyone looked at the old man.
"Are you all going to stop until you get what you want? Look at the time. You still expect me to feed you?" The old man squinted his eyes and scanned the crowd. "I can't manage so many mouths. Go home and stop thinking about eating at my table!"
Uncle Wu wanted to say something else: "Uncle Er, we are not..."
"It's not what it is!" The old man interrupted directly. "Everyone go back. You're giving me a headache. If you really want to visit me in the future, please come one family at a time. Don't come with so many people at once. I can't stand it."
Everyone looked at each other, but seeing that the old man was really angry, they had to reluctantly get up and say goodbye.
After most of the people had left, Old Man Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed his temples: "These bastards are really getting more and more outrageous."
Xiao Zhengning poured him a cup of tea: "Dad, don't be angry with them, you know what kind of people they are.
Next time they come in such large numbers, please stay upstairs and don’t come down.”
Old Master Xiao glanced at him and said, "If I don't come down, can you calm them down by yourself?"
Xiao Zhengning's neck stiffened, "You can count on my son, and I can count on him too.
If they come again, I will call Xiaoqiu over!"
Old Master Xiao laughed heartily, "Okay, from now on, let Xiaoqiu handle this kind of mess by herself."
He then looked at me and said, "Little Feather, you weren't scared today, right? Alas, every family has its own problems. These people are just jealous of Xiaoqiu's company because it's so big and makes so much money, and everyone wants to get a piece of the pie.
This is Xiaoqiu's own ability. I don't care who he wants to give his money to. Anyway, I'm old and can't spend much money. The country is still supporting me.
But you, at such a young age, have to worry about so many things for him. It's really hard for you."
I didn't expect Mr. Xiao to say that. I was so moved that I wanted to express my loyalty immediately. "Grandpa, Dad, I'm not afraid as long as Shiqiu is here. I can also quarrel with them. It's not my turn to speak today."
Old Master Xiao was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, pointing at me and saying to Xiao Shiqiu, "Okay, you're still a little hot pepper, but you're taking on too much and leaving me no room to develop."
Xiao Shiqiu looked at me lovingly, fed me a freshly airlifted Xianju bayberry, and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll give you a chance to practice next time."
