Chapter 437 Testing Jiang Ruan
Gu Shixi fell into thought after she hung up the phone.
Jiang Ruan Si Ning ignored this, and Jiang Yu Lin Bei Lin Feng wouldn't answer the phone. The only people he could contact were Huo Sinian and Lu Er, who were the instigators who brought him here.
He didn't understand why Lu Er would tell him these things.
But after seeing Jiang Ruan and Si Ning's attitudes, he seemed to understand.
Amidst various thoughts.
He made a phone call home.
Jiang Ruan didn't care about his thoughts and actions at all; after ending the call, she went back to work.
Near the end of her workday, she received a call from Old Master Qin, who gave her an address and asked her to come for dinner. The gist of it was that Qin Muchuan and Qin Muchi had come with the shareholding agreement to discuss the details with her.
Jiang Ruan said "okay".
After get off work, she went straight to the restaurant.
When she arrived, there were already several people sitting in the private room: Qin Muchuan, Qin Muchi, Qin Mo, Qin Luofeng, and Old Master Qin, who had been brought from her home.
"Ruan Ruan is here." Even though he sees her every day, Grandpa Qin's enthusiasm for her remains undiminished. "Come and sit down."
As Jiang Ruan sat down, she greeted everyone.
She is very different now than before; she is more composed and mature.
"You can serve the food now," Grandpa Qin instructed the restaurant manager.
While waiting for the food.
Qin Muchuan's gaze fell on Jiang Ruan, and he still spoke in that very gentle tone: "It's been a while since I last saw you, Ruan Ruan has become more and more capable."
"I wouldn't call myself capable," Jiang Ruan said to him, offering only superficial politeness. "At most, I'm somewhat familiar with the business."
Qin Muchuan smiled and said, "You're being modest."
Qin Muchi looked at his hypocritical appearance and turned his eyes away in disgust.
"I heard your second project is progressing very smoothly," Qin Muchuan said, getting to the point. "Will it be ready for acceptance and payment soon?"
Jiang Ruan looked up: "It's only halfway done, it's still early."
Anything that doesn't end up in your pocket is nothing.
She didn't believe Qin Muchuan would do nothing.
"Qin An's children are indeed humble," Qin Muchuan said unhurriedly, glancing at Qin Mo. "In a few days, I'll have Qin Mo take you to the Qin Group to familiarize you with the business, so that you can take over the work at the Qin Group after you get the shares."
Jiang Ruan looked over.
She knew that this was just Qin Muchuan being polite.
He would bring it up almost every time they met, and she would always refuse.
But this time...
"Okay," she agreed.
Qin Muchuan was taken aback.
Qin Muchi looked over.
“I happen to be free these days.” Jiang Ruan met Qin Muchuan’s gaze, her words carrying a polite tone but an unspoken meaning only they both understood. “Going to the company would be fine.”
Qin Muchuan's smile froze, and his heart sank.
He was just being polite as usual, but he didn't expect Jiang Ruan to actually agree.
Didn't she always refuse outright in the past?
"Qin Mo," Old Master Qin spoke.
Qin Mo looked over.
Grandpa Qin said directly, "When Ruan Ruan goes there, you should take care of her. Whichever department she likes, you can give her that department."
Qin Mo: "Okay."
"What's so good about it?" Qin Muchi couldn't hold back anymore, his face turning very pale. "Isn't it a bit too much to parachute someone with no qualifications and no ability into a high-level position in the company?"
"This..." Qin Muchuan pretended to be hesitant.
Qin Muchi glared at him.
What is this?!
If this idiot hadn't talked nonsense, things wouldn't have turned out this way.
"If Ruan Ruan doesn't have the ability, then what about you?" Old Master Qin was always blunt about this. "She was able to go from knowing nothing to achieving what she has today in less than a year. Can you do that?"
Qin Muchi: "..."
It's impossible.
Grandpa Qin then looked at Qin Muchuan: "Could you have done that when you were young?"
Qin Muchuan did not speak.
"It's settled then." Old Master Qin made the final decision. "You two wanted to discuss the details of the shareholding agreement with her, so bring it out for me to take a look. If there are no problems, leave the agreement with me, and we'll sign it together after Ruan Ruan completes the family ability assessment."
"Dad!" Qin Muchi could never control his temper.
Qin Muchuan said "Okay".
He then handed the document over from his bag.
Qin Muchi stared at him in disbelief, so much so that he blurted out what he really thought: "Are you crazy?!"
Jiang Ruan's company is progressing very smoothly. If things continue like this, she will complete her mission in two months at most. Her shares will be given to her the moment she completes her mission, at which point Jiang Ruan will become the most powerful person in the entire family.
How could someone like Qin Muchuan just stand by and watch such a thing happen?
Was he planning something else? Or did he want to make peace with Qin An?
"Great! You guys are really good!" Qin Muchi took a deep breath and finally handed over his share in front of everyone.
I thought Qin Muchuan wanted to use the contract negotiation as a way to put pressure on Jiang Ruan.
I didn't expect him to actually give it to me.
The meal ended up feeling oppressive and dull.
"Cousin." As the dinner was drawing to a close, Qin Luofeng, who hadn't spoken until now, suddenly spoke.
Jiang Ruan looked over.
Qin Luofeng, with a gentle demeanor, pretended to be chatting casually: "I heard that Huo Zhizhou had some trouble and lost his memory. Did you know about this?"
"I don't know." Jiang Ruan answered naturally without the slightest hesitation.
Qin Muchuan and Qin Muchi looked at him.
Amnesia?
"I heard it from a friend in Jingzhou," Qin Luofeng said unhurriedly. "They said that he not only can't remember anything now, but he has also given the position of head of the Huo Group to Huo Sinian."
Jiang Ruan replied calmly, "Maybe."
Qin Luofeng: "You haven't been in contact?"
Jiang Ruan: "I haven't paid much attention."
Seeing that she didn't want to talk about it, Qin Luofeng didn't ask any further questions.
The meal was full of ups and downs, and Qin Muchuan and the others' emotions were like a roller coaster ride. After the meal, Qin Mo took Jiang Ruan and Old Master Qin back, while Qin Muchuan and the others stood in the parking lot outside the hotel and watched them leave.
Only after the car's taillights disappeared from their sight did Qin Muchi look at Qin Muchuan with dissatisfaction: "Are you really planning to give the shares to Jiang Ruan?"
"Otherwise what?" Qin Muchuan said calmly. "She's An'an's child. Isn't it only right that we give her to her after completing the family mission assessment?"
Qin Muchi: "Do you even believe that yourself?"
Qin Muchuan: "Believe it or not, you'll find out when I give her the shares."
Qin Muchi stared at him, trying to discern something from his face.
But Qin Muchuan was, after all, the current head of the Qin family, and he was much more composed in dealing with things than him, so naturally he wouldn't let him see any flaws.
This made Qin Muchi begin to doubt the truthfulness of his words. After all, Qin Muchuan had expressed his support for giving the shares to Jiang Ruan some time ago, and he hadn't seen him tamper with Jiang Ruan's performance evaluation for so long.
Could it be that he really intends to give it to me?
How could someone who has been selfish for decades suddenly change their nature?
"Don't worry about it. This is something we owe Qin An." Qin Muchuan said as he got into the car and spoke to him through the window, "Besides, Ruan Ruan is a very capable child and worth nurturing."
Qin Muchi cursed, got into his car, and drove off first.
