Chapter 123 Nian Nian’s “Big Red Envelope”
As I stepped into the door, the temperature on my cheeks suddenly rose and became warm.
Jiang Shengjun, who was sitting by the coffee table in the living room, smiled brightly when he saw them come in. He stood up and took a few steps forward to greet them, his steps steady. "Finally, you're here. I've been waiting for a while. Happy New Year! Happy New Year!"
His steps were steady and his voice was clear. It was obvious that he was in excellent physical condition and mood. I guess he had had a comfortable time.
It was time for him to start living a better life. He lost his son a few years ago, the company's management was in turmoil, and his only grandson was unusual... Now everything was starting to improve, which was a good thing, Shi Jianfeng thought.
After Shi Jianfeng thought about it, he and Shi Guilin both replied with a few words of Happy New Year, and the atmosphere in the Jiang family almost immediately became heated.
Nian Nian raised his chin and watched them happily pass on their blessings, the exchanges between them so lively and friendly. Not wanting to be left behind, he darted into the middle of the adults, clapping his hands and raising his voice: "Happy New Year! Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year, Grandpa Jiang, Happy New Year, Aunt Cheng, Happy New Year, Brother Duan. Happy New Year to everyone!"
"Hahahahahahahaha..." Jiang Shengjun laughed so hard that wrinkles appeared on his eyes. "Nian Nian is here to pay New Year's greetings today too. Coincidentally, I have a pot of flowers that are wilting and the leaves are curling. Can you help Grandpa check what's wrong later?"
Nian Nian patted her chest righteously and promised loudly: "Leave it to Nian Nian. Nian Nian is the little angel who protects the environment!"
"Okay, okay." Jiang Shengjun was so coaxed that he couldn't close his mouth. He turned around and went to the sofa to get something, "Come here, Nian Nian, this is the little angel's red envelope this year, come and get it."
"Niannian is here." Upon hearing that there was a red envelope, Niannian let go of the warm hand that was shaking with Jiang Duan, and with the ahoge on her head raised, she ran to Jiang Shengjun.
The adults followed the two people at the center of the conversation, and everyone found their own seats around the coffee table. Jiang Duan quietly chose the sofa closest to Nian Nian and sat down.
Then, a red envelope as big as a textbook lay quietly in Jiang Shengjun's palm.
Nian Nian, full of anticipation, stretched out her hand halfway to take it, but after seeing such a "huge thing", she gave up halfway and retracted it, "Grandpa Jiang, did you take the wrong one?"
Shi Guilin leaned forward slightly and became curious about what was in the red envelope.
Shi Jianfeng's eyes fell on the red envelope, and a light bulb went off in his head. He suddenly guessed what was inside, and cursed in his heart: Old thing, he wants to kidnap his grandson again during the New Year.
Cheng Huili and Jiang Duan remained calm and composed. It was obvious that the family had been in collusion for a long time, and no one was unaware of the secret sealed in the red envelope.
As expected, Jiang Shengjun smiled kindly, like the typical kind-hearted grandfather in the textbook, and said lovingly, "It's a red envelope. Grandpa prepared it especially for you. Nian Nian, open it and take a look."
Nian Nian glanced at the red envelope hesitantly, like a kitten tentatively showing its claws, and finally took it and opened it.
"Hmm?" Nian Nian pulled out a file wrapped in a white transparent envelope. He placed the empty red envelope on the coffee table and flipped open the file with both hands.
When he opened it, he found that he had it upside down, so he turned it over again.
"Hmm, what...what...book?" Nian Nian slowly read the title in the middle, but she didn't recognize most of it. She could only barely recognize the last word "book".
He frowned, his eyelids straining: "Grandpa Jiang is sending Nian to school?"
Shi Jianfeng immediately confirmed his guess: It was true, the person he was targeting was definitely the one who wanted to kidnap his grandson.
Shi Guilin was still racking his brains: What book was it? What was the gift?
Jiang Duan looked at the two of them intently, his hands on his knees slowly curled up until they were clenched into fists, as if what was going to happen next would have a major impact on him.
Cheng Huili's eyes dropped, not missing this detail. She raised her hand to stroke the back of Jiang Duan's head and whispered softly, "Don't be nervous."
Jiang Duan had a blank face and nodded slightly.
On the other side, before Jiang Shengjun could tell him what the document represented, Nian Nian grabbed a piece of shit and threw it away in her hand. She stuffed the document into his hand without hesitation and said, "Nian Nian doesn't want to read books. I'm giving it back to you, Grandpa Jiang. Nian Nian doesn't want the red envelope this year."
Jiang Shengjun: “…” was unsubscribed.
Shi Guilin was filled with questions: "???"
Shi Jianfeng suddenly sneered. His old friend's conspiracy had failed before it could be accomplished.
Jiang Duan pursed his lips and looked away. Cheng Huili sighed softly.
Jiang Shengjun's expression changed unpredictably, and his limbs froze for a few seconds. But how could such a powerful figure in the business world give up so easily?
Jiang Shengjun cleared his throat, holding the folder that had been despised, and changed his words: "This is the equity transfer document. With this, when our Nian Nian grows up, she can come to work in Grandpa Jiang's company and get a lot of salary. Don't you like it?"
salary?
Nian Nian caught the key words, "Is it a lot? If Nian Nian starts working now and works until she's 80, can she earn that much?"
Jiang Shengjun smiled and said, "Maybe."
Nian Nian asked, "Can I make money by delivering food to Grandpa Jiang's company every day?"
Jiang Shengjun understood it as a job like a delivery driver, and after a simple calculation, he said, "I'll probably have to work until my next life to earn that much."
"Next life?!" Nian Nian was stunned. It had been a long, long time. It was harder to earn than the bank card his father had given him.
In a few breaths, Nian Nian's eyes suddenly changed as she looked at the ordinary white folder.
From implicit disdain to respect. Respect for money.
Jiang Shengjun sensed that he had changed his mind and handed the folder to him again: "Take it?"
Nian Nian looked at him, reached out with both hands to take it, and the folder fell into his arms.
Shi Guilin, who was sitting nearby, straightened his back when he heard the words "equity transfer agreement". After Jiang Shengjun and Nian Nian had a good discussion, he suddenly woke up from his dream and shouted, "Wait! Uncle Jiang, have you thought it through? Nian Nian is still young!"
Nian Nian is still young, who can predict the future? Once the equity transfer agreement is signed, it is set in stone and cannot be changed. If something unexpected happens in the future, it will be too late to regret it.
As he was talking, Shi Guilin started to get angry. He turned his head and met Shi Jianfeng's gaze, "Dad, give me your opinion!"
Shi Jianfeng raised his hand, signaling him not to say more: "Think about your own good fortune and fate."
Jiang Shengjun understood Shi Guilin's implication. He rubbed his fingertips, sighed heavily, and continued, "To be honest, I'm not really a good person who does charity. I had selfish motives when I gave Nian Nian the shares of Jiang's."
Shi Guilin's heart immediately became tense, and countless battles between wealthy families in TV dramas flashed through his mind, with dramas intertwined with friendship circling in his mind.
He choked up, not knowing what to say, "Uncle Jiang, just say it."
