"Why are you here now? Is there something you need?"
Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. What is Lily doing at their house so early in the morning?
Lily, abandoning her usual composure, appeared unusually flustered this time. She must have run all the way here, as she was panting heavily.
Is Chairman Ji home?
"he……"
Before Mrs. Ji could answer, Lily had already bypassed her and run inside.
Inside the room, Ji Pengfei was eating dumplings by himself with chopsticks.
"Chairman Ji!"
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Ji Pengfei looked up, and when he saw Lily's face, a hint of guilt flashed through his mind.
What is Lily doing at his house?!
With Ji Zhixia present, there were some things he couldn't say outright. Ji Pengfei could only keep a stern face, adopting the demeanor of a boss, and coldly reprimand, "What are you doing here? Go back!"
His affair with Lily cannot be revealed yet. Pengfei Group has just partnered with Greenland Group, and the company is making a lot of money. If he divorces Gou Xiuqin now, especially if it's his fault, Gou Xiuqin will at least take half of his assets, which would be very detrimental to his future development of the company.
Lily was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan: "Chairman Ji, something's happened!"
"What could possibly happen? Do you even understand when I tell you to go back?!"
Ji Pengfei didn't take Lily's urgency to heart at all. It was the first day of the Lunar New Year; what important matter could possibly require his intervention?
He picked up a dumpling with his chopsticks, put it in his mouth, and chewed.
"Chairman Ji, the Ji Group has been acquired and merged by ZN, and is now a branch of ZN!!!"
"..."
Ji Pengfei choked on most of the dumpling he hadn't finished chewing, and stood there dumbfounded for a few seconds—
"Cough cough cough! Cough cough cough cough!!"
He coughed loudly, choking, and his old face turned bright red.
"Chairman Ji!" Lily was startled and rushed forward to pat Ji Pengfei on the back, disregarding their relationship.
"Pengfei!"
Mrs. Ji acted quickly, grabbing a glass and bringing it to Ji Pengfei's lips: "Pengfei, drink some water..."
Ji Pengfei took a big gulp of water, and finally managed to swallow the dumpling.
His eyes widened in disbelief at Lily's words. He suddenly stood up, his face trembling with the movement.
Ji Pengfei glared at Lily, his question almost coming out through gritted teeth: "What did you say?!"
Lily was unusually startled, her face turning pale. She swallowed hard and cautiously said, "Ji Zhinan transferred the Ji family business to the ZN Group..."
“…”
…………
ZN——
Ji Zhinan had already prepared most of the materials.
She checked it one last time, then signed her name at the bottom. Closing the file, Ji Zhinan handed the documents to Xing Minggao.
Xing Minggao still feels like he's dreaming, because it's just too unbelievable.
The once glorious Ji family is now... a branch of his ZN company?
Seeing Xing Minggao staring at what he was holding with a somewhat dazed look in his eyes, Ji Zhinan smiled faintly: "Still think you're dreaming?"
“That’s right…” Xing Minggao nodded, looking at Ji Zhinan with a silly grin: “A year ago, I never imagined that I would be able to acquire the Ji family business in my lifetime.”
With the Mu Group protecting them all these years, the Ji family shouldn't be too arrogant.
