Chapter 910 Nan Chu's Retreat
If she really does that, not only will she be kicked out of the bank, but he, the old bank manager, will also be kicked out!
There are just too many of these business cases to count.
Seeing his father's strong opposition, Lu Nan began to doubt his decision: "Dad, was I really wrong? If we don't re-divide the pie, will those uncles and elders stop obstructing the new project?"
If that's the case, she's willing to make some changes for this new project.
She could even take back the decision she made in the first place.
After all, a Lu's Bank that was in disarray was not the outcome she wanted to see.
“If you can reverse your decision to recut the cake, I can help you mediate with your uncles and aunts and persuade them to stop obstructing this new project.”
Lu Jinan said with a serious expression, "But, on the condition that you give up your decision to recut the cake."
"Nan Chu, can you do it?"
Lu Nanchu hesitated for a moment, then almost without thinking, agreed, "I can do it."
"Dad, if you can help me overcome this difficulty, I can abandon this decision and reconsider the future of Lu's Bank and what path it should take."
This decision was originally made by her as a new official trying to make a splash.
If there are errors, then of course they should be corrected.
She is still very obedient to advice.
Lu Jinan was very satisfied with her performance: "Alright, leave your uncles and aunts to me. I will give you a satisfactory answer within three days."
His daughter is still very obedient and listens to advice. She knows when to stop if she is wrong.
This is a quality that almost every successful person needs.
"Okay, Dad, I'll head back to Waterfront Manor now."
Just as Lu Nanchu was about to leave, Lu Jinan suddenly called out to him, "Wait!"
"Dad, is there anything else?" Lu Nanchu turned to look at him.
Lu Jinan still hoped that the family would be harmonious and prosperous: "Nan Chu, although Xu Chen's cheating incident has caused quite a stir, you can't always give him the cold shoulder like this. Couples should communicate more and live a good life so that others won't laugh at you."
“Dad, this is my own business, you shouldn’t interfere.” Lu Nanchu didn’t want her father to interfere in her marriage: “I have my reasons for doing this, and I have my own principles.”
She knew exactly what to do, so her father didn't need to worry about it.
Upon hearing this, Lu Jinan sighed and said, "Alright, you should still give people a way out when you should, don't push them to the brink."
People driven to the brink are capable of anything.
"Okay, then I'll head back now, Dad." Lu Nanchu said goodbye to him, "Goodbye."
After saying that, she turned and left the Lu family villa.
However, her thoughts were different from her father's; her father didn't want to drive Xu Chen to the brink of despair.
But she just wanted to drive him to the brink of despair!
A man as stubborn as Xu Chen will only realize his mistakes after being severely hurt!
...
The following day, at the headquarters of Lu's Bank.
After Xu Chen finished attending the morning meeting in place of Xu Yi, it was already ten o'clock, and everyone started to walk out the door.
When he saw Lu Nanchu preparing to leave, he suddenly called out to her, "Nanchu, wait a moment. I have something I want to discuss with you. Can we find a place to talk in detail?"
"What can't be said here?" Lu Nanchu packed up the documents without even looking up.
Xu Chen said calmly, "It's about the loan. I want to talk to you privately. I'm not afraid of being overheard if you say it here."
He knew that Nan Chu had always been a respectable person, and she wouldn't discuss such a private matter as loans in a meeting room.
Sure enough, Lu Nanchu glanced around and said, "Let's talk in my office."
After saying that, she took the documents and left the meeting room.
Xu Chen followed closely behind her and entered the bank manager's office with her.
Lu Nanchu sat behind her desk, watching Xu Chen until the door closed, before she spoke: "Tell me, what kind of loan is it that's worth you being so careful when you talk to me about it?"
"It's about our family's cash flow problems," Xu Chen said to her, sounding quite embarrassed. "As you know, several of our family's promising projects with good returns on investment were all snatched away by my cousin, Bo Jinyan."
"Right now, our family only has those projects with extremely long investment return periods left, and our cash flow is tight. So I wanted to talk to you here to see if you could lend us some money to solve our immediate problem?"
Although he really didn't want to talk to her, what could he do when Lu Nanchu was now the president of Lu's Bank?
If his father wants him to take out a loan from Lu's Bank, he will inevitably have to go through Lu Nanchu, the bank's president.
Ironically, Nan Chu was the woman he deeply loved, yet he had to humbly beg her for the sake of his family's future development.
It was suffocating for him.
loan?
How to solve the immediate problem?
Hearing this, Lu Nanchu wanted to laugh but couldn't: "Xu Chen, you should know that Lu's Bank only lends to customers with the ability to repay. Your Xu family is struggling to survive, yet you want me to lend to you?"
"What if your family can't repay the loan? Wouldn't this loan become a bad debt within our banking system? Do you think I would dig myself into a hole?"
Loan repayment rates are already low, and major banks on Wall Street are tightening lending.
Especially for large loans like these, amounting to hundreds of millions, the risk control department will review them again and again, and will absolutely not approve the loan easily!
"Nan Chu, I know this is a bit unreasonable, but we are husband and wife after all. Shouldn't husband and wife share joys and sorrows?"
Xu Chen knew she would do this, but he still wouldn't give up: "Just do me this once, for the sake of our marriage, okay?"
By the end, his tone had become so humble it was almost pleading, begging her to give him a chance to catch his breath.
He didn't want to watch the Xu family go bankrupt because of this!
His father has done so much for him, he can't be so unfilial and let his father's hard-earned career be ruined in his hands!
Lu Nanchu frowned, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, but instead asked him, "You've even brought up our marital bond, so let me ask you, did you request this loan yourself, or were you forced to come at your father's behest?"
If it was Xu Yi who asked for it, then she wouldn't lend him a single penny!
This Xu Yi is a wolf in sheep's clothing, desperately scheming to seize the Lu family's assets. If she were to lend the Lu family's money to such a person, how could she possibly live up to the trust that her father placed in her so much faith and passed on such a large family fortune to her?
