Chapter 138 Apocalypse: I Don't Mind Other People's Business (4)
Yan's Building.
Inside the conference room on the top floor, Changqing, dressed casually, sat in the main seat with a relaxed expression.
On both sides were a dozen or so shareholders of the Yan family, all looking at him with strange expressions, wondering what was going on in their minds:
President Yan is always extremely serious about his work, always impeccably dressed in a suit, but today he actually came to the company in casual clothes?
It has to be said that this outfit made everyone present a little uneasy.
After all, although President Yan is not very old, he is quite good at management and business acumen, and has achieved some success in the past few years in charge of the company.
With the economic downturn in recent years, everyone is looking for stability. The original owner did a good job, and the shareholders are very satisfied.
Changqing was also looking at the other shareholders.
These shareholders were all people who started the business with Yan's father, some of whom were relatives of the Yan family. They were all of the same generation as his uncles and aunts, and they were all quite old.
There is no claim of a power struggle among the shareholders in the Yan family.
That's much less troublesome.
After all, 80% of the shares are held by Yan's parents. The shares held by these shareholders are too dispersed, and together they only account for 20%, so they don't have much say.
"President Yan, what's the urgent matter? Is there any progress on the project in the south of the city?"
In the silence, someone couldn't help but ask.
Changqing looked relaxed, so everyone assumed there was some good news and didn't think the worst.
"No rush, no rush."
Changqing smiled, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip.
Some people glanced at the empty seat next to him, their eyes gleaming. Could some important guest be visiting today? Perhaps the mayor?
Some speculate that it might be business partners coming.
After about ten minutes, hurried footsteps sounded outside. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Yan Qiyu push open the door and enter.
"Miss Yan!"
Many people looked enlightened.
Everyone knows that President Yan cares a lot about this younger sister. Does he really want to arrange for her to intern at the company before she even graduates from university?
Several elderly people present were aware of the Yan family's shares, and their expressions at this moment were rather intriguing, each harboring their own speculations.
"Yan Changqing! Why didn't you come to pick me up last night?! You didn't even call! What's wrong with you?"
Yan Qiyu was slightly sweaty from walking so fast. As soon as she stepped into the conference room, she stared straight at Changqing and questioned him loudly.
Everyone was stunned.
Miss Yan is being too willful. Making such a racket in the company meeting room shows absolutely no respect for others.
Changqing seemed to have gotten used to Yan Qiyu's attitude. He didn't seem anxious at all and even laughed when he heard this.
“Miss Yan, didn’t you say you didn’t want me to interfere with you? Besides, you must have had a very happy night last night. After all, it’s a feeling of freedom.”
His eyes sparkled with a smile, as if he could see right through people.
Yan Qiyu's heart skipped a beat when she recalled what happened last night, and she took a step back.
"What, what did you say?"
She instinctively asked a question in return.
Changqing waved his hand and then pointed to the empty seat next to him.
"Let's cut to the small talk. Today's meeting is about you. Please have a seat."
Yan Qiyu glanced at him suspiciously. Chang Qing was unusually not wearing formal attire, but he had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and an open and honest demeanor, exuding a convincing aura.
After hesitating for a moment, she went over and sat down.
"Get to the point quickly, I don't have time for meetings!"
She snorted and subconsciously shifted her position to the side. At that moment, she felt as uncomfortable as if she had just returned home after having eaten forbidden fruit and was facing her parents.
He... he wouldn't know anything, would he?
Yan Qiyu's heart pounded.
However, Changqing was unaware of her inner thoughts. He clapped his hands and stood up.
"Today's meeting has two agendas. First, the first agenda item is that Yan Qiyu, the eldest daughter of the Yan family, is about to turn eighteen. According to the will of the late President Yan, she will inherit the shares of the Yan family."
Oh, so that's what it was about.
Many of the shareholders present were aware of this, and some of them immediately laughed.
"Hey, Mr. Yan, you can just sign it according to Mr. Yan's wishes. Why do you need to ask for our opinion?"
Yes.
The shares were already under Changqing's trusteeship. According to the will, inheritance only requires signing the documents; there's no need for all this trouble.
After all, Yan Qiyu is still young and in school, and the shareholders present have not considered the possibility of her participating in the company's management.
Changqing smiled.
"This matter is important, so of course we need to go through the proper channels."
He clapped his hands lightly, and a lawyer walked in from outside the door, placing a pre-prepared shareholding confirmation document in front of Yan Qiyu.
What do you mean by that?
Yan Qiyu flipped through the documents. There were many clauses, most of which she didn't quite understand, but the final equity confirmation text was very clear, and she understood it.
But this wasn't what she expected.
She originally thought that Changqing would do everything in its power to delay and prevent her from inheriting the shares.
After all, everyone knows that shares mean power. Changqing, as the trustee, is temporarily managing these shares with his father's authorization, which is key to his foothold in the company.
They just gave it up so easily?
Besides, she's not even eighteen yet, she'll be eighteen in a few days!
She couldn't help but look at Changqing, her expression full of confusion.
Changqing ignored her question, stood up, and introduced himself with a smile.
"This is Attorney Zhang from Dezheng Law Firm. He has worked with the Yan family for many years and is also a friend of Mr. Yan. He was the one who witnessed the will back then."
Attorney Zhang smiled and nodded.
"Miss Yan, please sign. This is also Mr. Yan's wish."
Everyone looked at Yan Qiyu.
The shareholders present were all aware of the Yan family's situation, so they weren't surprised. The adopted son of the Yan family was capable, but the hard-earned foundation would definitely be left to his own bloodline descendants, which everyone could understand.
In the minds of the shareholders, inheriting shares does not change anything.
After all, Changqing was only the general manager, a senior manager, and he never cultivated personal power within the company. He always handled business strictly and never showed any ambition to seize control of the Yan family.
Yan Qiyu was still a little confused.
"I... I'm not eighteen yet."
For no apparent reason, she blurted out that sentence, but then she regretted it. What kind of talk was that? Of course, the sooner the company was in her hands, the more at ease she would feel, to avoid any unforeseen complications.
only--
Things were so simple and smooth that it felt unreal to her.
Attorney Zhang patiently explained:
"Although Mr. Yan's will stipulates that Miss Yan should wait until she turns eighteen, the specific date doesn't need to be so rigid. Besides, Miss Yan usually celebrates her birthday according to the lunar calendar, right? In fact, according to the date on your ID card, today is your eighteenth birthday, and there's absolutely no mistake."
ah?
Yan Qiyu was stunned again.
She didn't suspect the lawyer of deceiving her. Dezheng Law Firm was a large law firm, and she had met Lawyer Zhang before. He was a well-known economic lawyer in the country, so it was unlikely that he would conspire with Yan Changqing.
But something just feels so strange.
She looked at Changqing, her heart skipped a beat, and she finally realized where the incongruity lay—it lay with her half-brother.
He's been behaving strangely since last night. Not only did he ignore her staying out all night, but he also held an emergency meeting at the company this morning to arrange this big event.
strangeness.
That's so strange.
She hesitated even when she picked up the pen.
"Hurry up, don't waste time, there's a second item on the agenda, everyone's busy."
Changqing frowned and urged him on.
This impatient tone immediately ignited Yan Qiyu's anger. Heh, fine, she really wanted to see what tricks this guy was up to!
Changqing watched her write her name and breathed a sigh of relief.
Although these things will be worthless once the apocalypse arrives, they were promised by the original owner to be given to Yan Qiyu by her adoptive father.
In the story, he was delayed for two days by other matters, and then the apocalypse broke out. He didn't have time to hand over the items, so some people speculated that the original owner was plotting to seize these things, but just didn't have time to do so.
Changqing is not willing to take the blame!
His gaze swept over the area, and his expression became much more relaxed.
"The second item on the agenda concerns myself. Effective immediately, I will resign from my position as General Manager of Yan's Group!"
His words shocked everyone present.
