"Sis... I'm a coward, don't scare me. What do you mean by 'not optimistic'?"
"Not optimistic means that there's a high possibility that Xu Enterprise will have a change of management."
"Change of management?" Qiao Anhao pursed her lips. "You mean, there's a high possibility that Xu family will become someone else's company?"
Even though Qiao Anhao really didn't want confirmation from Qiao Anxia, there were many times when things didn't go according to one's wishes. Qiao Anxia replied with a "Yes", then continued to say, "Qiao Qiao, even though you and Jiamu broke off the engagement, the relationship between the two families is still good. I just called the Xu family. I called you because I want you to make a call too."
Qiao Anhao knew that Xu Enterprise was in trouble, so naturally, she called Xu Jiamu.
Xu Jiamu picked up the call very late, as though he was really busy. There was the sound of a meeting on the other end, followed by the sound of a door opening and closing. Then came Xu Jiamu's slightly tired voice. "Qiao Qiao, what's wrong?"
"Brother Jiamu, Anxia just called me to say that Xu Enterprise is in trouble. Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Xu Jiamu seemed to have lit up a cigarette. Through the phone, Qiao Anhao could hear the sound of him exhaling. Just as she was about to continue comforting him, a female voice came from the phone. "Little CEO Xu, the stock market has fallen again..."
"Qiao Qiao, I can't talk to you now, I have something to do. I'll call you back later." Xu Jiamu quickly finished his sentence, then hung up.
Qiao Anhao listened to the beeping sound on the phone for a long time before lowering the phone from her ear. She opened the browser on her phone and typed in "Xu Enterprise". As expected, she saw news of Xu Enterprise being in trouble, as well as the plummeting stock market. There were also many experts who published articles saying that Xu Enterprise was in trouble.
Lu Jinnian's 3 pm meeting lasted until 4: 30 pm. The assistant brought an urgent document for Lu Jinnian to sign. As he flipped through the document, he asked the assistant to make him a cup of coffee.
When the assistant brought the coffee back to the office, Lu Jinnian had just finished signing it.
The assistant placed the coffee on the desk. Lu Jinnian picked it up and took a sip. Perhaps it was too hot, so he placed it back on the desk. Then he pushed the signed document towards the assistant.
The assistant didn't reach for the documents, instead placing his phone in front of him. "Mr. Lu, this is the news that just came out."
After a pause, the assistant added, "It's about Xu Enterprise."
Lu Jinnian raised his hand and tapped on the phone screen, making the light slightly brighter. He scanned through the contents of the news, and with an expressionless face, he softly replied with an "Mm". After a while, he asked, "How much of Xu Enterprise's stock market has been acquired?"
"I'm only three points away from 50%."
Lu Jinnian picked up the coffee on the table, swallowed a mouthful, then nodded. Without saying a word, he waved his hand, signaling for his assistant to leave.
The assistant stood in front of the desk without moving.
Lu Jinnian moved the coffee cup away from his lips and glanced at his assistant. Noticing the hesitation on his face, he furrowed his brows and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"Mr. Lu, there's something I don't know if I should remind you..."
