Chapter 13 Don’t you look like a Lu family member?
"I heard that the Lu family kid went to Shanghai for his little secretary and didn't even come back to attend the engagement party?"
"Not only that, didn't you see that no one from the Lu family came today? Even the person welcoming the guests was only Jian Ning. Mr. Jian has a great reputation throughout his life, how could he give birth to such a shameful daughter?"
A shareholder of Jian's company snorted with a beer belly several months old, "President Jian was also confused at the beginning. How could he let a little girl manage the company?"
"Jian Ning is an unmarried girl. If she turns out to be a love-sick person like her sister, wouldn't the whole company be in trouble?"
Everyone present is either a shareholder of the company or has business dealings with the Jian family.
Originally, they were just chatting and watching the excitement, but when they heard that their own interests were involved, they sat up straighter.
"Yes, it is indeed unsafe to leave the company in the hands of a woman. It seems that we have to be more cautious in cooperating with Jane in the future."
What if Jane gets married and has children? How can she take care of the company's affairs?
They invested real money, they can't let it go to waste!
"No matter how good Jian Ning is, she is not the biological child of the Jian family after all. If she has selfish motives... you shareholders should pay more attention to her!"
They still have a cooperation project with Jane's that has not expired, so naturally they don't want anything to happen to Jane's.
Several people who had cooperated with Jane's company tried to persuade the company's veterans. Several shareholders looked at each other with meaningful smiles on their faces.
The beer belly who spoke first raised his glass and said, "Of course we care about this, but we also need your help, right? Otherwise, if word gets out, people will think we are bullying the young because of our age."
Before the Jian family got into trouble, Jian Ning had already taken over the company.
Although she is young, she has learned from her father Jian since she was young and has good abilities. After the Jian family got into trouble, it was natural for her to take over the company.
These old guys were suppressed by a young girl like her, so they were naturally unwilling to accept it.
But the Jian sisters are the largest shareholders of Jian Corporation. They can do nothing with Jian Ning and can only use the Lu family's provocation against the Jian family to flatter Jian Ning in front of the company's major customers.
No matter how outstanding Jian Ning's abilities are, if he loses the favor of his clients, he will be kicked out of his position as president sooner or later.
The CEOs rolled their eyes and clinked their glasses with his. “Of course, of course.”
Not far away, behind a flower display that was more than a meter tall, Jian Ning picked up the wine glass in her hand, took a sip, and a hint of sneer appeared at the corner of her lips.
Jane's was founded by his father. In order to gain the initiative, he holds 60% of the shares in his own hands.
The so-called shareholders who looked down on her were actually the old employees who had started the business with Jane's father. They were originally doing a job that made both money and money, but her father gave them some shares out of consideration and asked them to take up some part-time jobs in the company to support themselves in their old age.
They are called shareholders, but in fact they are just a group of blood-sucking worms raised by the company.
Jian's father was a sentimental man, and Jian Ning did not want to go against his wishes, so she had not touched them.
It's a pity that after years of being pampered and flattered by his employees, his abilities have not improved, but his ambitions have grown a lot.
Secretary Li came over quickly and reminded in a low voice, "Boss Jian, someone from Gu's company is here and has reached the door."
Jian Ning put down the cup in her hand and said, "Come with me to greet them."
The two families will be in-laws in the future. Two days ago, the betrothal gifts were brought in person by Old Madam Gu and the eldest master of the Gu family, which gave enough face to the Jian family, and she could not lose her manners.
No one from the Lu family came, and Jian Yao hadn't arrived yet either. Almost everyone's attention was on Jian Ning.
Seeing her rushing out at this time, I couldn't help but wonder.
"Why is President Jian rushing to the door in such a hurry?"
"Could it be that the Lu family is here?"
"Are you kidding? I got the news that the Lu family had already left the country yesterday."
Someone suggested, "How about we go out and take a look?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present stood up and headed towards the door.
Anyway, the Jian family is doomed to lose face today, so let’s go out and see what tricks Jian Ning is up to.
At the entrance of the hotel, a row of luxury cars were parked neatly.
The people on the bus had already gotten off. From a distance, they were all dressed in suits and had extraordinary temperaments. The most handsome of them all was the young man who was supporting the old lady in the first bus.
Jian Ning had just met old lady Gu two days ago. She put on a smile and walked quickly to greet her, "Old lady."
When Mrs. Gu saw Jian Ning, her eyes brightened up and she took Jian Ning's hand and asked her to stand next to her.
"That's too polite. You are Yaoyao's sister. From now on, just follow her and call me grandma."
The Gu family has many descendants, but they are all boys. Old Mrs. Gu has always dreamed of having a granddaughter. Now that she sees Jian Ning and Jian Zhi, her eyes light up.
If the two families had not become relatives, he would have wanted to bring Jian Ning home to adopt her as his granddaughter.
Jian Ning was a frequent resident of the shopping malls and was very sensitive to people's kindness. She knew that the old lady really liked her, so she took hold of the old lady's wrist and said, "Grandma Gu."
Old Mrs. Gu said that it was polite to ask her to call her grandma, and Jian Yao was the future granddaughter-in-law of the Gu family, so there was no harm in calling her grandma.
After all, she is a level away from me, and if I call her grandma, it would seem tactless. Just calling her grandma Gu is just right.
Mrs. Gu knew that she was trying to avoid suspicion, and her eyes showed even more love.
Everyone says that Jian Ning is a fake daughter who took over the company that originally belonged to Jian Yao, and she is very scheming.
She was addicted to novels and had read quite a few stories about real and fake daughters. She had made sufficient mental preparations before proposing the marriage proposal. If this fake daughter turned out to be a restless one, she would definitely support her grandson's wife.
But after meeting him twice, Jian Ning didn't think he was the kind of person who had no sense of propriety.
When Jian Ning supported the old lady, Gu Zhiyan had already let go of the old lady's hand and moved to the side.
While the old lady and Jian Ning were talking, he checked his watch and looked in the direction of Jian's house.
Judging from the time, the Jian family’s car should be arriving soon.
Jian Ning noticed Gu Zhiyan's actions and repeatedly invited Gu's family to come in.
"Everyone go in and take a seat first. I'll wait for Yaoyao at the door."
Old Mrs. Gu shook her head and looked towards the direction of the Jian family. "I won't go in. I'll wait for Yaoyao with you."
She finally has a granddaughter-in-law, and she can't get enough of her. She only met her briefly last time when she proposed marriage, which was too hasty. She must take a good look at her today.
Jian Ning wanted to persuade her, but she was afraid that the old lady was too old and her body couldn't bear it.
Seeing that the other family members didn't care much and had no intention of persuading her, she could only stand up straight and try to let the old lady's weight be placed on her so that she would not be so tired.
The old lady didn't go in, she stood at the door waiting for her grandson and daughter-in-law. Naturally, the other members of the Gu family didn't plan to go in either.
There were many Gu family members, and they stood in a large group at the entrance of the hotel, all looking in the direction of the Jian family. It looked quite spectacular.
The bosses who followed Jian Ning out to watch the excitement were watching from a distance. There was an eerie silence in the atmosphere.
"You don't look like a Lu family?"
"Could it be a distant relative of the Jian family?"
The Jian family members present looked at each other: …
