"Do you really think that your father and I only tested you once?"
The Old Lady looked at Li Zhen in disappointment. "How can your father and I trust you with such a big company when you can't even run a small business?"
Because she was too agitated, the Old Lady covered her mouth and coughed for a long time before she continued. "Before you and Li Chen went there, didn't your father and I ask you if you needed to do a field trip?"
Li Chen remained silent. "…"
"When you go to a new place to do business, you don't do a field trip or ask about the local situation. You only use your previous experience. You don't know how to be flexible or how to stop losses.
Do you really think that you know how to do business? "The Old Lady looked at Li Zhen coldly." Your father and I gave you a chance. "
It was you who didn't cherish it.
The Old Lady did not say the last sentence out loud but Li Zhen understood it.
Li Zhen's face turned pale as he stared at the Old Lady in a daze. After a long time, he said, "But you can't give the company to Li Chen."
"Didn't I give you the shares?" The Old Lady massaged her aching forehead. "Since you ask, I will tell you directly. The company belongs to your father and me. We can give it to whoever we want. As for whether it's you or Li Chen, Li Zhenyang or Jiujiu, I can give it to whoever I want. It's not your place to tell me what to do."
Having said those words, the Old Lady looked at Jiujiu and smiled kindly. "Jiujiu, I know about you and Mo. After you get engaged, I will transfer all my shares to you."
Jiujiu was startled. "What?"
Since when was she and Mo Jinyu going to get engaged?
Hearing that the Old Lady was going to give all her shares to Jiujiu, Li Zhen blurted out. "Mom, how can you be so biased?"
"Biased?" The Old Lady sneered. "What has Li Zhenyang done for the company for so many years? Jiujiu has won over all the shareholders within a few days of being in the company. Why don't I give it to Li Zhenyang instead of Jiujiu? Do you really think I'm senile? "
Li Zhen gritted his teeth. "She's just a granddaughter."
His granddaughter would belong to someone else sooner or later. Wouldn't he be giving the Li family's company to someone else for nothing?
"So what?" The Old Lady didn't think much of it. "Don't forget that the company's Creation Fund is the money from selling my dowry."
This was not a feudal dynasty where the family had to inherit the throne. What was wrong with being a girl? Women can hold up half the sky.
The Old Lady could not be bothered to listen to Li Zhen's nonsense. She turned to take Jiujiu's hand and asked affectionately, "When are you going to get engaged to Xiaomo? It's not that I want to say this, but why aren't you worried at all? "
Because of Mo Jinyu's appearance at the Old Lady's birthday party and Mo Jinyu's attitude towards Jiujiu, everyone tacitly agreed that Mo Jinyu and Jiujiu were in a relationship.
Because of this, Xu Dongchen and Li Jiuge did have a sweet time together. But after Mo Jinyu came back from abroad and Jiujiu did not go abroad to look for Mo Jinyu, everyone started to guess that Mo Jinyu and Jiujiu had broken up.
The reason why Xu Dongchen was willing to keep in touch with Li Jiuge was that he wanted to use Li Jiuge to get a free ride from Mo Jinyu. Now that Mo Jinyu had broken up, Xu Dongchen naturally did not have to continue to care about Li Jiuge, the adopted daughter of the Li family.
Xu Dongchen's attitude towards Li Jiuge had also changed.
Li Jiuge was annoyed that Xu Dongchen treated her like a commodity.
However, Xu Dongchen was the best man she knew, so even if she was unhappy about it, she could only accept it.
During this period, she had been looking for an opportunity to get Xu Dongchen engaged with her. Now that she heard the Old Lady ask when Jiujiu and Mo Jinyu were going to be engaged, Li Jiuge could not help but think of her relationship with Xu Dongchen. Her heart was filled with jealousy.
Thinking that Jiujiu and Mo Jinyu had not seen each other for a long time, she felt that they must have broken up. She smiled and said, "Grandma, you remember wrong. Jiujiu and Mo Jinyu are just friends."
"How is that possible?" The Old Lady waved her hand. "Mo Jinyu called me a few days ago and said that he was going to propose to Jiujiu."
As soon as she finished speaking, the Old Lady realized that she had let it slip. She smiled awkwardly. "I am old and my memory is not good. I didn't even realize that I had let it slip. Jiujiu, if Mo Jinyu proposes to you, you have to pretend that you don't know."
Jiujiu had always known that Mo Jinyu had feelings for her. But she did not expect that Mo Jinyu would propose to her.
She thought of the last time Mo Jinyu had a video call with her. He was a cold and domineering person in front of others, but he always blushed in front of her. He was like a shy little brother. He was so shy that he was like a green fruit, which made him even cuter.
Thinking of Mo Jinyu's face, Jiujiu could not help but smile. "I know. I will pretend that I don't know."
She had been forced to get engaged to someone like Xu Dongchen. But Mo Jinyu, a noble person, was secretly planning to propose to Jiujiu.
Li Jiuge felt as if he had drunk ten thousand pounds of old vinegar. He was so jealous.
Especially when he thought of the Old Lady saying that she would give all her shares to Jiujiu, he could not help but say sourly, "Sister, I really envy you. No matter what you want, someone will give it to you."
He did not think that she had to fight for everything herself. Sometimes, even if she tried hard, there might not be any results.
Jiujiu and Li Jiuge had maintained a harmonious relationship on the surface. Hearing Li Jiuge's sour words, she frowned and said, "Actually, I envy you too."
Jiujiu looked at Li Jiuge. "Although you were adopted by our parents, you were able to stay with them since you were young. Unlike me, I was in poor health when I was young. In order to survive, I had to leave our parents and go to the temple. I have always envied those children who grew up with their parents. If I were given another chance, I would rather grow up with them."
These were Jiujiu's heartfelt words.
Li Jiuge said these words out of jealousy. She did not expect Jiujiu to refute her directly and even say that she envied her.
Compared to the two, Li Jiuge's state of mind was obviously inferior. He seemed vulgar.
Seeing that everyone in the room was looking at him, Li Jiuge said embarrassedly, "But you have everything since you came back!"
She had an outstanding suitor, Mo Jinyu. She had a career that others dreamed of. She had even taken over the Li family's company. Now, her grandmother was going to give her all her shares. These were things that she did not even dare to dream of. She had everything. She was simply a winner in life. What was there to be envious of?
