Chapter 50 Li Family
As soon as Mu Yansen arrived at the Mu Group, Zhao Yi hurried over to greet him.
"Mr. Mu, the overseas Li family called this morning and said they want to terminate our cooperation. We have invested a lot of manpower and material resources in this cooperative project. If we terminate the cooperation at this time, we will lose at least 2 billion, which is very disadvantageous to us."
Zhao Yi followed Mu Yansen into the president's exclusive elevator.
"What did Mr. Li say?"
"Mr. Li was very dissatisfied with our delay and refused our call. It was his secretary who informed us that Mr. Li wanted to terminate the cooperation."
"In a moment, go contact Mr. Li's secretary and tell him I want to speak to Mr. Li personally."
"Okay, Mr. Mu."
As Mu Yansen entered the office, several other secretaries hurriedly handed over important documents for today.
Mu Yansen became busy as soon as he entered the office. There was too much work piled up in the past two days.
Four secretaries were whispering outside, "Who or what did President Mu have to worry about this time? He even postponed such an important meeting regarding cooperation with the Li family, angering them and causing them to cancel the cooperation. This cooperation took us at the Mu family several years to negotiate, and President Mu put in a lot of effort."
"Do you think Mr. Mu is after women?"
"Anyone can choose beauty over power, but President Mu is the only one who wouldn't. Look at how cold and ruthless he is at work. He doesn't seem like the type of person who would postpone such an important meeting for a woman. Besides, I don't see any woman like that around him."
"Of course not. A while ago, everyone was saying that there was a woman driving Mr. Mu to and from get off work every day."
"I heard that, too."
"Oh, I really want to see which woman conquered our cold-hearted President Mu."
"If you're not working, what are you doing? Chatting during work hours, be careful not to anger President Mu, or he'll make you pack up and leave."
When Zhao Yi came over, he saw his four secretaries chatting secretly, and couldn't help but remind him that President Mu might not be in a good mood today. If the Li family's matter was resolved, everyone would be happy. If it failed, they would also suffer.
The secretaries immediately got busy with their own things and didn't dare to be lazy. This job was very attractive.
Zhao Yi pushed open the office door and went in.
"Mr. Mu, Mr. Li's secretary said that Mr. Li will call you in half an hour."
"Okay, go get ready first."
"Okay, Mr. Mu."
Half an hour later, Mu Yansen got in touch with Mr. Li overseas.
"Mr. Li, what happened that day happened suddenly. My wife is in trouble. I have to go."
"Mr. Mu, I really don't like partners who don't keep their promises. If what happened that day happened again, would you still choose your wife?"
Mu Yansen didn't hesitate. "If it happened again, I would still do the same thing. Although my cooperation with Mr. Li is something I particularly value, she is my wife and I must take care of her."
The man on the other end paused for a moment and then said, "Although I don't like people who don't keep their promises, I dislike people who don't care about their families or their wives even more."
Upon hearing this, Mu Yansen immediately responded, "Boss Li, please give us Mu Corporation another chance. We are fully prepared for cooperation with Li Corporation."
"Since you're doing this for your wife, I can give your Mu Corporation a chance. I'll be going to China soon, and we'll discuss the details of the cooperation then. I hope the Mu Corporation won't let me down."
"It would be even better if we could discuss it in person! Mr. Li, I'm looking forward to your arrival."
"Okay, bye!"
After hanging up the phone, Mu Yansen breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhao Yi hurriedly asked, "Mr. Mu, how is it? What did Mr. Li say?"
"There are basically no problems. Tell the people below to prepare all the preliminary work. President Li will come to our capital in a few days. I will not allow any mistakes to happen."
Zhao Yi's face lit up with joy, "Got it, President Mu, I'll arrange it right away."
At the Li family in country B, Li Zhixing, the current president of the Li family, and his father Li Shuwang, grandfather Li Wanchuan, and uncle Li Shuwang were sitting in the living room.
"Grandpa, the people I sent down brought back news that there's news about my aunt in China. I'm going to China to discuss cooperation this time, so I might as well go and check out the situation."
Li Wanchuan's temples were gray and his face was full of sadness.
"My poor daughter, she's been gone for twenty-five years. I wonder how she's doing now? Is she living a good life? Has she suffered? Is she married and has children?"
The atmosphere in the living room was heavy. Li Shuwang comforted his father, "Dad, don't worry too much. Zhixing might really be able to find Huanhuan on this trip to China."
"I've been searching for you for so many years, but my hopes have been dashed time and time again. My Huan'er, where are you?"
"Grandpa, I have a feeling that this time we will gain something, so please relax."
"Well, I know. I won't fall until I find your aunt. By the way, where are Zhiyan and Zhiche?"
Li Wanchuan has two sons and one daughter, Li Shuwang, Li Shuyu, and Li Huanhuan. Li Shuwang inherited the Li Group, Li Shuyu is a very talented doctor, and Li Huanhuan disappeared 25 years ago after accompanying her mother to visit relatives in China.
Li Shuwang had two sons, Li Zhixing and Li Zhiyan, who both managed the Li Group, with Li Zhixing being the CEO. Li Shuyu also had a son, Li Zhiche, who showed no interest in the family business and became a celebrity.
Li Zhixing replied, "Zhiyan is on a business trip."
Everyone else looked at Li Shuyu. Li Shuyu touched his nose and said, "Dad, I don't know where that kid Zhiche has been hanging out."
Li Wanchuan doesn’t know yet that his little grandson has become a big star.
"Hey, why haven't you two given me a granddaughter? You've only got a bunch of brats. Zhixing, you and your wife have been married for over a year, and you're still not pregnant. Hurry up and give me a great-granddaughter. If you wait any longer, I won't be able to hold her anymore."
"Grandpa, we haven't had enough of our two-person world yet, and we don't want to have a child so soon."
"When can't we enjoy our own world together? You're already 28, and you want your first child now, and then you'll have to have your second and third child later..."
Li Zhixing's face was filled with black lines. Grandpa was treating them like baby-making machines.
"Anyway, you have to give me a great-granddaughter!"
Li Shuwang and Li Shuyu looked gloating, as they finally didn't have to be urged by Li Wanchuan to have a baby.
"Grandpa, why don't you urge Zhiyan and Zhiche? They don't even have a girlfriend. I alone may not be able to give you a great-granddaughter. You need to cast a wider net."
Li Zhixing knows how to divert attention.
Li Wanchuan looked at Li Shuwang and Li Shuyu, "You should urge Zhiyan and Zhiche to find someone reliable to settle down with. The men in our Li family are family-oriented and become more stable after getting married. You can find some suitable girls for them to go on blind dates. Maybe one of them will like them. It would be great if they can get married within this year."
"I know, Dad."
Li Zhixing silently worried about his two brothers.
