Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Chapter 578: Lin Nuan’s Words Were Spot On

But Lin Nuan merely felt sorry for her. After all, she was no saint. Here someone was, brazenly trying to steal her “position” away from her. She couldn’t just graciously give it up like that! How else should she react when someone was trying to snatch her man away from her? Surely she couldn’t be all welcoming and hand him over with both hands.

She was in the right because she was weak? She was younger, so if she snatched something away, it should just be given to her? What kind of logic was this?

Honestly speaking, Chu Jiaoyang’s current expression made Lin Nuan feel gratified and comfortable all over.

Fu Huai’an frowned, anger in those deep eyes of his as he said slowly, “Chu Xun, say what you have to say in one go today!”

Now that was interesting!

Bai Xiaonian looked at the sad and innocent “white lotus flower” next to her, feeling refreshed…

Say what you have to say in one go, then scram with your cousin and stop appearing in front of us—this was probably what Fu Huai’an meant!

With Fu Huai’an suddenly calling her by name, and upon detecting the coldness in his grave and low voice, Chu Xun knew that Chu Jiaoyang went a little overboard.

“Apologies, Jiaoyang is young and insensible…” Chu Xun, who knew when to yield and when not to, first apologized to Lin Nuan.

“It doesn’t matter if she’s young. I’m just afraid her ambitions are greater than her age might imply!” The corners of Lin Nuan’s lips turned up as she gazed at Chu Xun. “President Chu, you’ve really got to take care of this cousin of yours, don’t let her walk down the wrong path in marriage. They say children are taught by words and instructed by the deeds of adults, so it might not be easy to fix her behavior!”

Naturally, Lin Nuan was referring to those two wives of Chu Jiaoyang’s father at home, whom she had unconsciously revealed a moment ago…

If this kid felt that this was only right and natural, in the future, she would either become someone else’s mistress or allow her own husband to keep another woman at home!

If the only daughter of the second Chu brother became a mistress, what face would the Chus have to keep a foothold in the upper society of Haicheng?

However, in Chu Xun’s ears, this sounded like Lin Nuan was slapping her right in the face. That was especially so when she linked her words to Bai Xiaonian’s “anxious to send themselves to other people”, making Chu Xun recall what she herself had done.

Chu Xun didn’t utter a sound, and neither was she in a hurry to console that little cousin of hers who was sobbing pitifully. After keeping silent for a good while, she spoke to Fu Huai’an, “Grandma Fu asked me to come and urge you not to give up on the Kaide Corporation in a moment of spite. With you gone… the Kaide Corporation is in a mess. Grandpa Fu is exhausted to the bone, and Fu Tianci’s mother, Lu Qingmei, is almost completely in power right now. She has the power to decide everything in the Kaide Corporation with Secretary Song!”

Then Chu Xun looked towards Lu Jinnan. “Grandma Fu received news that Lu Qingmei has arranged her own relative to take Lu Jinnan’s position. If you wait until after your long vacation to go back, I’m afraid Lu Jinnan might lose his position!”

Lu Jinnan wasn’t at all surprised; this was all within his expectations and hence not worth being alarmed about.

The only surprising news was, perhaps, that Fu Qingquan was willing to relent control to Lu Qingmei…

“Huai’an, by the time you’re done vacationing, your left- and right-hand men… plus those people under your wings in the Kaide Corporation, will likely already be replaced by Lu Qingmei!” Chu Xun’s brows were tightly furrowed. “Grandma Fu is especially worried and hopes you’ll return to the Kaide Corporation ASAP to take charge of matters. Otherwise, the Kaide Corporation will either be destroyed in the hands of Lu Qingmei or become completely under her control. By then, should you return… every step will be arduous!”

Fu Huai’an nodded, a cold look on his face. “Anything else?”

Chu Xun didn’t expect such a reaction from Fu Huai’an. She subconsciously shook her head.

“Then talk about the second matter…” Fu Huai’an’s dark and deep eyes appeared visibly displeased, in a hurry to end this meaningless conversation.

Chu Xun then recalled the document folder in her hands. She placed the file on the round table and turned it to face Fu Huai’an.

There were two visible fingernail imprints on the document file, and this didn’t escape Lin Nuan’s eyes. She said nothing, then raised her teacup and took a sip.

“These are all the shares held by my Chu family. If you need them… my father said he could lend them to you!”

She had obviously said this to test whether Fu Huai’an had other plans for the Kaide Corporation!

To test if Fu Huai’an would return to the Kaide Corporation.

Lu Jinnan looked up, displeased with the fact that after causing a scene for an entire day, this was that Chu old fox sending his daughter here to test Fu Huai’an and not to present the share transfer form.

Lu Jinnan had always stood on Fu Huai’an’s side; in the past, when he helped Chu Xun, he had also done it thinking it was for Fu Huai’an’s good. Now that Chu Xun was here to help her family test Fu Huai’an, there was no way Lu Jinnan would help her!

Hence, a sinister smile appeared on Lu Jinnan’s lips as he leisurely said, “I thought these were the documents to transfer shares! Lend them to Old Fu? How so? I don’t get it…”

“My father said that if you need him to transfer the shares, it can be done too!” Chu Xun said.

“What price would your father ask for if it’s a transfer?” Fu Huai’an didn’t touch the file in front of him, asking with a hint of a smile.

Knowing that the Kaide Corporation’s share price had been plunging, Chu Xun found it hard to reply to that question.

She only replied after several long moments, “For so many shares to be transferred at once, even if you were to accumulate them on the stock market, it would take some effort. Because the Kaide Corporation’s shares are on the decline right now, he said we could do it according to the price you mentioned before!”

Lu Jinnan couldn’t help laughing out loud. That old fox dared to ask such a high price at a time like this. He was definitely testing them! There was no way Fu Huai’an would buy these shares at such a high price since he no longer wanted the Kaide Corporation—unless there was something wrong with him…

All these years, Fu Huai’an had been unwilling to hurt the foundation of the Kaide Corporation, yet at the same time, he didn’t want to reveal any traces, so the means he resorted to required some work. This, in other people’s eyes, was seen as Fu Huai’an regarding the Kaide Corporation as very important to him.

It wasn’t as if Lu Jinnan had never mentioned opening a brand new company, but Fu Huai’an said that whenever a company rises rapidly, others were bound to be suspicious of it. Only a long-standing massive corporation like the Kaide Corporation, with its deep roots in Haicheng, could act as camouflage.

Furthermore, all these years, Fu Huai’an had given too much for the Kaide Corporation, so not bearing to part with his efforts was another reason.

Lin Nuan couldn’t resist speaking up. “Although I don’t know what price Huai’an offered your father previously, with Huai’an’s sense of loyalty, I’m guessing that he must have offered a price higher than the market value at that time when the Kaide Corporation’s share price was high! Now that the Kaide Corporation’s share price is on the decline, if Huai’an truly has the intention to buy the shares, he can very well wait until the price falls to the bottom. By then, those shares in your Chu family’s hands will have become a piping hot potato. If he sweeps up those shares then… he should save quite a handsome sum.”

Lin Nuan’s words were spot on.
