Chapter 302 The Only Heir
“I know what you mean, but,” Fu Shenyuan pinched his taut temples, “she has been kind to me, so it’s only natural to give her some help.”
Tan Shen said, "I thought you hadn't considered these things. I was just being nosy."
"It's alright. You've been with me for so many years, you can say whatever you want."
Fu Shenyuan had his doubts about Lin Xuesha. He wondered if the money she had asked for repeatedly had actually been used for the company's operations.
However, since the amount of money wasn't much, he didn't really argue with her about it, so he let it go.
But he wouldn't keep sending her money indefinitely.
"Find some time to investigate the Lin family's company. If there's no major problem, handle it normally. We'll deal with the rest later."
Tan Shen understood immediately and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Fu, I will handle it."
"Hmm," Fu Shenyuan trusted Tan Shen completely and felt at ease leaving her in his care. "Is Ranxing alright? Have any of the people at the company given her a hard time?"
"There were difficulties, but my wife is very capable and wasn't bullied by these people."
Tan Shen reported to Fu Shenyuan what Jiang Ranxing had been doing at the company recently.
As Fu Shenyuan listened, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up: "She's never been one to be bullied, that's just who she is."
Thinking of this, Fu Shenyuan couldn't help but recall the time they lived together.
Perhaps there is only one situation that could make Jiang Ranxing bow her head: it would be for the sake of feelings, whether it be family, friendship, or love. She is a person who cares too much about feelings, and such a person will inevitably be hurt because of this emphasis on feelings.
"President Fu, I've investigated. The vice president's people are indeed trying to take advantage of your and the chairman's illness to sabotage the group's projects. Problems have been discovered in both the procurement department and the project's external suppliers. The vice president is probably trying to cut off our supply system or short the stock during the procurement phase, ultimately causing the project's cash flow to break down. In order to maintain this large project, you will choose to sell your shares at a low price at this time, and the vice president will take this opportunity to buy them. In the end, he will gain a larger shareholding and become the new relative controller of the group."
Fu Shenyuan sneered: "Second Uncle's idea is quite clever, what a pity."
Fu Shenyuan certainly wouldn't walk into the trap set by Fu Hongkai without reason.
Tan Shen asked, "What do you plan to do?"
"Since they want to lure us into a trap, let's walk in and play along."
Fu Shenyuan handed the document he had prepared earlier to Tan Shen: "Just follow this plan and don't tell anyone yet, including Grandpa."
Tan Shen read through the plan prepared by Fu Shenyuan: "President Fu, it has to be you. I'm afraid no one else would dare to do this."
Tan Shen has always greatly admired Fu Shenyuan's business acumen.
"The wound has been inflamed for a long time, it's time to clean it out completely."
This time, he didn't want Fu Hongkai to have any room to fight back.
Fu's Group, Vice President's Office.
The secretary knocked and came in, saying, "Vice President, everything is proceeding according to plan. This time, we will definitely be able to get Fu Shenyuan to relinquish control of the group."
Fu Hongkai, not without a hint of smugness, took a relaxed puff of his cigar.
"Fu Shenyuan, Fu Shenyuan, do you think sending a pretty face to oversee things will do any good? You've already become like that because of a woman, why don't you just hand over the stuff obediently?"
The secretary flattered, "After this is over, he'll be completely useless, and the chairman won't be able to help him at all."
"How is the old man doing? What did the doctor say?"
The secretary replied, "His health is not good; he's just barely hanging on."
Upon hearing that his biological father was unwell, Fu Hongkai showed no change in expression. Instead, he asked, "Has Attorney Zhang given his consent? Is there any progress on the will?"
The secretary said, "We should have a result soon. The chairman is in a condition where he's just taking it one day at a time. The will definitely need to be finalized as soon as possible. Attorney Zhang has been going to the old house frequently lately, probably for the will."
Fu Hongkai nodded: "Yes, the most important thing is still this matter. The old man will definitely favor Fu Shenyuan. It just depends on how much he will give us."
Inside the Fu family's old residence.
Attorney Zhang brought a camera and another lawyer to record and notarize the will that Mr. Fu requested to be established.
"—Regarding the issue of equity distribution in the Fu Group, Mr. Fu Jingshan, are you sure you want to transfer all the shares you hold, that is, 3% of the equity in the Fu Group, to your descendant, Mr. Fu Shenyuan?"
Grandpa Fu nodded to the camera: "Yes, after I passed away, all my shares were given to Shen Yuan."
Attorney Zhang confirmed, "Okay, please sign these documents. The division of other assets has been made in accordance with your request and will be received by the Fu family's relatives."
Each will was written in detail and accurately, and all were done in accordance with legal procedures.
Without hesitation, Old Master Fu signed his name on each document in front of him, and then stamped his seal and pressed his fingerprint.
"Our law firm will release these documents to the public after your death, as you requested."
Attorney Zhang said to put the will documents in a sealed document bag.
Thus, the much-anticipated will of the Fu Group was officially signed this morning in Mr. Fu's study on an ordinary day.
Fate brings twists and turns, winter turns to spring, travelers come and go, and in the end, they are nothing more than a few sheets of paper.
With everything settled, Attorney Zhang instructed his assistant to turn off the camera and went downstairs to wait; he still had something to say to Old Master Fu.
Attorney Zhang said, "Chairman Fu, if you wish to make any changes to the will, please feel free to contact me. I will come over immediately to assist you in making the changes until you are satisfied."
“No need,” Old Master Fu waved his hand, his body weak and his voice feeble. “I have no intention of changing it. I am quite satisfied with this decision. That’s fine.”
Attorney Zhang hesitated, as if unsure how to begin.
Old Master Fu said, "I know what you're thinking. I don't know how much longer I can live. After I'm gone, the antagonism between Shen Yuan and Hong Kai might become even more serious, but there's nothing we can do about it. They've always been like this. When I was alive, I could still keep them in check, but after I'm gone, no one will protect Shen Yuan. If I want to hand over the Fu family to him, I have to do this to ensure that he can stay in that position forever. This is the only way."
"As for Hongkai, I hope he understands that there can only be one person in that position. There's nothing wrong with being a deputy leader. No matter how you try to treat everyone equally, you can't treat everyone equally. I can only compensate him more in other assets. At his age, he should gradually retire and enjoy his retirement. All of this should be taken over by the younger Shen Yuan. After all, the young are the future."
Since Mr. Fu has already made his decision, as a lawyer, there's not much I can say.
Grandpa Fu said, "Shen Yuan will need someone by his side in the future. I hope you can continue to help him with some things so that he can go further. I thank you on behalf of Shen Yuan."
Attorney Zhang said in a flustered manner, "Chairman, you are exaggerating. I have worked for you for most of my life and have benefited a lot. Of course, I will continue to be loyal to President Fu for you."
Grandpa Fu smiled with delight.
The will has legal effect from the moment it is formally made, which means that the new chairman of the Fu Group has been determined.
Attorney Zhang returned to the law firm with his deputy, formally establishing the legal process.
Just when everything should have been progressing normally, certain messages seemed to sprout wings and fly into the shadows.
Fu Hongkai eventually learned the contents of the will and used some shady methods.
When Fu Hongkai learned the contents of the will, he was admiring the stock prices on the screen.
When his secretary barged in, he was displeased, but because he was in a good mood, he managed to maintain his composure: "What's wrong? Why are you suddenly so flustered?"
"Vice President, something terrible has happened! The Chairman's will has been finalized, and it states—"
Upon hearing this, Fu Hongkai could no longer remain seated. He exclaimed in disbelief, "What did you say?!"
