Soon, Song Xia showed this group of people just how extraordinary she was!
The annual Cheng Group shareholders' meeting was held, and this time Cheng Shizhang and Yu Peiyan found Song Xia's name on the list. Moreover, she was not only to attend the shareholders' meeting, but also to attend the board meeting.
Board members have certain decision-making power over the operation of Cheng's Group, right? When did Song Xia quietly purchase 4% of Cheng's Group's shares?
Judging from the transfer dates, most of them were at the beginning of the month, so she specifically bought them after knowing the identities of the two children?
Thinking about it this way, the two breathed a sigh of relief; after all, they were still considered one of their own.
The two were even a little excited. Could the Cheng family take advantage of the shares that Song Xia bought in the future?
They already owned 30% of the shares, and with Song Xia's 4% in the future, their control over the company would be even stronger.
“I told you to cultivate good relationships, and here comes the benefit.”
Yu Peiyan also smiled slightly and nodded: "When they come to pick up Zhili again another day, I'll have Zhili bring some clothes and stay there for a couple of days."
“That’s right. In the future, her things will go to these two children anyway. Zhili can’t possibly be closer to her than to us. Let Zhili get closer to her, and we’ll give Zhili more things in the future.”
At the shareholders' meeting and board meeting, Song Xia did nothing except support Cheng Shizhang's decisions when voting on them. As a result, the couple trusted her even more.
However, she knew secretly that there were powerful forces targeting the Cheng family.
In my previous life, it was about two years later. Capital lured Cheng Shizhang into signing several gambling agreements. In the end, the Cheng family naturally failed to meet the targets. Even the Ji family was afraid to get involved and even canceled their engagement with Zhili.
The Cheng family once suffered a major setback, with its stock price plummeting and it almost became powerless. It was only thanks to the intervention of a powerful figure in Beijing who favored Zhili that the Cheng family was able to avoid a severe collapse.
Song Xia couldn't really judge that person. She also couldn't be sure whether Zhili married him because she liked him or because she was grateful to him for saving the Cheng family.
In her previous life, Wenwen was also responsible for the downfall of the Cheng family. At that time, she hated the Cheng family so much that she not only seduced Ji Yunyang, but also betrayed the Cheng family's confidential documents.
In the end, Wenwen's fate was naturally tragic, and she couldn't even bear to recall it.
Song Xia felt that Wenwen was wrong, but it was all because of the Cheng family. Why was it that Wenwen was violated and died tragically, while the Cheng family was able to enjoy their later years in peace?
Throughout her life, the Cheng family had always harbored a desire to exploit Wenwen and Zhili, and she was determined not to let them have their way.
She firmly believed that even without Wenwen betraying the confidential documents, the Cheng family would still have fallen, because Cheng Shizhang was simply not a good decision-maker.
As for the person who single-handedly saved the Cheng family...
She wouldn't make Zhili make any more sacrifices. If it's true love, it should be okay if they met a few years later!
By then, Zhili will be more mature, and I will try my best to give her more leverage for equal dialogue.
So two years later, she must do everything she can to stop Zhili from going to university in Beijing.
Since Song Xia acquired shares in Cheng's company, the Cheng family has become even more polite to her. Often, without her having to bring it up, Yu Peiyan would suggest that Zhili stay for a few days. However, Wenwen has never stayed overnight at the Cheng family's house.
At first, the Cheng family had objections, but gradually, this kind of thing became a habit.
Song Xia is a very gentle person and someone who knows how to get along with children. She gives Song Wenwen and Cheng Zhili the most respect and lets them make their own decisions in most aspects of life.
Zhili's change was slow, but significant. In just over a year, she developed a relaxed, free, and confident look on her face. She no longer thought about others first, but rather about whether she would be happy doing so.
For example, at a banquet, the Cheng family sent two dresses. Zhili liked the blue one, but Cheng Zhibo's new girlfriend said she liked it, so Cheng Zhili didn't give it to her this time.
She casually had the dress delivered to her room, when Cheng Zhibo's girlfriend exclaimed, "That's the dress I've got my eye on!"
Cheng Zhili stood up: "Both outfits were given to me by Song Mama. Giving you one is already being kind of me. Why should I let you choose first?"
“Zhibo…” the girl said angrily, then grabbed Cheng Zhibo’s arm and acted coquettishly.
Cheng Zhibo looked at his younger sister: "You already have so many dresses, can't you give this one to your sister Zhao? She's your brother's girlfriend."
"Just because she likes something doesn't mean she can take it from me! Why don't you buy her something else, brother? I don't even want to give her this one anymore, I'll just take them all to my room."
Actually, the other yellow one was also very beautiful. Both were custom-made by a designer that Song Xia specially commissioned. They were styles that were not available on the market, so when she saw this one being taken away, the girl regretted it.
"What's wrong with you giving me one?"
"Nothing much, it's just that you made me feel bad, so I don't want to."
Cheng Zhibo frowned: "Zhili, you weren't like this before."
"Brother, do you want me to back down on everything like before? I'm not only the eldest daughter of the Cheng family, but also the biological daughter of Mother Song. If I back down, don't you think it will make the Cheng family and Mother Song lose face?"
"Your sister Zhao isn't an outsider."
"She's not my sister, nor is she my sister-in-law. If you want me to respect her, you should at least make her respect me."
Zhao Zhilan knew that her boyfriend Cheng Zhibo had two younger sisters. His biological sister was shrewish and had a bad temper, while his adopted sister was gentle, sensible, and obedient. The one in front of her was not his adopted sister, but his biological sister, wasn't she?
“Zhibo…”
"Alright, I'll go buy you another one."
"But I like these two pieces."
"Then what did you choose when I asked you to wear another one?" Cheng Zhibo said impatiently.
Zhao Zhilan fell silent. Wasn't she just trying to wear her best outfit?
Cheng Zhili left happily. What kind of person was this, trying to steal her things? If it were Wenwen who had her eye on her today, that would be understandable, but why would she give up her own preferences for anyone else?
Even she herself didn't realize that she was no longer the kind of person who would agree with whatever others said. She had also started to learn from Wenwen to stop caring about other people's feelings and to think about herself first.
This kind of pleasure can become a habit and addiction over time.
At first, she was worried that others would be angry and that her mother would scold her, but after one or two times, she found that there were no consequences, so why should she make herself feel wronged?
What Cheng Zhili didn't know was that her resistance was emboldened by Song Xia. As Song Xia's assets grew and her shares in the Cheng Group increased, Cheng Shizhang and Yu Peiyan began to pretend not to notice Song Xia's indulgence and her resistance.
