Chapter 188 Shareholder Suppression
After signing the contract.
Song Yilin suggested, "It's almost lunchtime, let's go out for a meal."
The others also got ready to go out for dinner together.
Ji Weichen said half-jokingly, "President Song is heavily pregnant, so it's inconvenient for her. Our Jiyuan Group doesn't have a reason to have a pregnant woman drink with us."
After Ji Weichen said that, the others also decided not to go.
Song Yilin playfully scolded Ji Weichen: "President Ji, what are you saying? You think I'm too pregnant to drink? Well, we have Secretary Zheng here. Secretary Zheng will drink with you."
"But we can't make pregnant women work overtime."
"Alright, I won't go. Let Secretary Zheng and Secretary Zhang accompany you."
Ji Weichen was also aware of such unspoken rules in the workplace. It wouldn't be right for Lijiang Group not to treat them to a meal after such a large collaboration had been finalized.
"Alright, I'll take President Song back. You all can go have dinner with Secretary Zheng."
Ji Weichen really did send Song Yilin back.
Song Yilin didn't hesitate: "Then thank you, President Ji."
“I’m not in the workplace, you can call me Ji Weichen, or Dr. Ji, it’s fine. Calling me President Ji makes me think you’re calling me Dad.”
"Dr. Ji, it's lunchtime, you can't skip eating. I'm hungry too, let's go grab a quick bite."
Ji Weichen had already taken her home; there was no reason for her to go back hungry.
"Then give me directions."
Song Yilin took Ji Weichen to a private restaurant. This restaurant was bought by Xu Qingmin so that she could come here to eat when she got tired of eating the aunt's cooking at home. She also often needed to entertain guests and could bring them here.
Here we can prepare a separate meal for her during her pregnancy.
As soon as Ji Weichen entered, he saw the Xu Group's logo and knew what was going on.
Song Yilin ordered a few dishes and handed the menu to Ji Weichen: "Dr. Ji, please order whatever you like."
"You should order. If you come here often, you'll know what's good and what's not."
"Okay."
Song Yilin specially ordered a few more dishes.
Many of the dishes here were specially prepared for her by a nutritionist, and they also reflect her favorite flavors.
Song Yilin ate happily, while Ji Weichen didn't eat much and just watched her eat.
"Dr. Ji, is it not tasty?"
"No, it's just that you seem to have a good appetite. Your baby is over three months old. Remember to have your prenatal checkups on time. You're getting older, so remember to get non-invasive prenatal testing."
Thank you, I will.
Ji Weichen gave a very measured set of instructions, his tone no different from when he spoke to a patient.
"Is the price you're offering today the lowest price your sister could give you?"
Ji Weichen nodded: "I know this price is already difficult for you, and I don't want to bargain anymore. Anyway, even if we lower the price, you won't get a refund, right?"
She really can't retire now; those old guys at Lijiang Group will want her dead. But if she goes to the company tomorrow, they definitely won't let her off so easily.
Just thinking about it gives me a headache.
Ji Weichen knew more about the company's business than she had imagined.
However, in a family like the Ji family, which child is truly innocent?
I came back after having dinner with Ji Weichen.
The aunt brought over some bird's nest, which looked freshly stewed.
She had told her aunt that she had a social engagement before she came back, and her understanding with her aunt is getting better and better.
The aunt gestured with her eyes that she had guests at home.
Song Yilin thought it was someone related to Lijiang Group, but it turned out to be Xu Ming.
"Mr. Xu, what brings you here? How is Guanqun's home?"
Xu Ming took the bowl from her and placed it on the sink.
Then I helped her take off her coat.
“You are pregnant now, your new husband is an orphan, your former mother-in-law is in poor health, your mother can come occasionally but cannot stay here for long. Although there is an aunt, she is not a relative after all. Being pregnant and having no relatives by your side can easily make you feel lonely.”
Song Yilin felt an indescribable sense of gratitude.
It's been almost two months, and although I've been busy the whole time, I often feel like I'm adrift.
"Is Guanqun alright at home?"
"It's alright. Guanqun has her father. Now that I'm here, her grandfather can go back to see her often. And your Guanqun's grandmother and maternal grandmother also visit her frequently. It's alright."
It seems Xu Ming has made up her mind.
"Then please stay here, thank you."
Fortunately, her house is quite big.
The aunt was very happy to prepare a room for Xu Ming to sleep in.
Although he had many conflicts with Xu Ming before.
But now she's let it all go.
After going through so much, that little conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law seems like the most insignificant conflict.
The next day, Xu Ming and her aunt prepared breakfast for her.
Xu Ming used to be a wealthy woman; when did she become willing to cook?
It seems she's trying to make up for the mistakes she made in the past.
Song Yilin can't keep harping on this.
"Yilin, come and eat. You're eating for two, but don't eat too much. Take care of yourself and don't get too fat, or it will be harder to give birth. By the way, did you have a vaginal delivery or a C-section when you gave birth to Guanqun?"
"Smoothly".
"You're very capable. Nowadays, people don't have the same physical strength as people in the past, and many can't deliver naturally. But you're also older this time. If you don't want to deliver naturally, then you can have a C-section."
Song Yilin touched her belly, feeling so busy lately that she had forgotten she was pregnant.
"I still hope for a natural birth. A C-section is actually more painful. Natural birth is very painful, but it will be fine after the baby is born."
"It's up to you."
After dinner, Xu Ming offered to drive her to work.
"Mr. Xu, this is impossible. I can drive myself."
"I'm here to take care of you, so don't be so polite with me."
Xu Ming insisted on driving, and she couldn't argue with that. She had always been able to drive herself and had never thought about hiring a driver. When she needed to go out for company business, Zheng Li or Xiao Zhang would drive.
"It's not safe for you to drive with such a big belly. I'm a good driver, don't worry."
If she keeps making excuses, she'll just be being pretentious.
When she arrived at the company, Chu, the vice president and shareholder of Lijiang Group, was already in her office.
The shareholders of Lijiang Group hold a very small percentage of shares, so they have never had much say.
Vice President Chu heard about what happened yesterday and wanted to bring those old guys out.
Song Yilin asked Xiao Zhang to serve tea to these old guys.
Zheng Li whispered, "Are you alright? Do you need me to go in with you?"
"No need, I'll call you when I need it."
Yesterday, at the negotiating table with the OEM factory, Zheng Li had already anticipated that she would be besieged today.
Zheng Li also disapproved of Song Yilin signing such a contract, but he knew that he was now Song Yilin's secretary.
His job is to obey.
Zheng Li said with concern, "Although these shareholders don't hold a large stake, they all helped President Chen when he was in a difficult situation."
Song Yilin smiled and said, "Okay, I understand. I'm fine."
She knew she would have to go in with these people sooner or later. Song Yilin took a deep breath and pushed open the door.
