I Want A Lifetime With You

Chapter 61

In the villa, Fu Jiayu put Cheng An to sleep, but Fu Renjiang was nowhere to be seen. “Is uncle Jiang not back yet?” She anxiously asked.

“Miss, Mr. Fu…”

“Are you looking for me?” Fu Renjiang was back. His eyes darkened as he saw Fu Jiayu’s car. “What did Fu Chengyan say?”

“You get to keep your shares, but you’ll have to send in your resignation tomorrow!” Fu Jiayu said. “This is the furthest Yan can tolerate, uncle Jiang.”

Fu Renjiang glared at Fu Jiayu. “Didn’t you say this little brother of yours always listens to you?”

“You should know that Yan is already very merciful. I’m sure you’ve seen how he dealt with things before. I’ve told you that Yan will turn a blind eye as long as you don’t go overboard, but you’ve really gone too far this time.”

Fu Jiayu was frustrated. Just one wrong thought back then and she was dragged down by Fu Renjiang. “Don’t think that grandpa doesn’t know you have other businesses outside. Even if he doesn’t say anything, it doesn’t mean he agrees with what you’re doing. I’ve done what I can, the rest is up to you. Either submit your resignation or go to jail.” Fu Jiayu sneered. “Don’t blame me for not reminding you; Yan can do much more than this.”

With that, Fu Jiayu left with Cheng An in her hands. Fu Renjiang was so angry that he kicked over the coffee table, causing the maid to rush over. “Master…”

“Get out!”

The next day during a morning meeting, all of Shengyuan’s directors had already arrived and were in the midst of a discussion. There wasn’t supposed to be a morning meeting, but all of them had

received a notice that there was going to be an important announcement.

When the first few directors received the news, they began to discuss it. “Looks like Fu Chengyan is ready to attack.”

“He’s just a little boy and wants to start burning bridges already? Even his father paid us some respects.”

“Well, Shengyuan is no longer who he used to be. Besides, everyone knows how capable Fu Chengyan is.”

“Wait and see. He’s not someone who would make a move so easily.”

“Stop talking already. He’s coming!”

Everyone was speechless.

The person who pushed the door open and entered was Fu Renjiang. He didn’t look too good and became more upset upon seeing all the directors seated there.

“Why are you late today, Jiang?” Fu Yu, who always clashed with Fu Renjiang, asked. Fu Renjiang merely responded with a cold laugh, “I’m not late!”

“Is that so?” Fu Yu squinted. He looked at Fu Renjiang with a pair of foxlike eyes and felt delighted to see the latter looking angry. “I wonder what the young master is up to, calling all the directors over today. Do you happen to know the reason, Jiang?”

“You…”

The door to the meeting room opened once again before Fu Renjiang could speak.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Good morning, everyone. Mr. Fu will be here shortly!” Zhou Zheng said as he opened the door. Fu Renjiang stood up and asked, “What’s going on with Fu Chengyan, calling all of us here but not coming over himself?”

Zhou Zheng’s eyes narrowed. “Please be patient, Mr. Jiang. Mr. Fu will be here once he receives a document!” He noticed Fu Renjiang’s face stiffened slightly when he mentioned the ‘document’. It was clear that the man felt guilty.

Zhou Zheng sent a text message to Fu Chengyan with his lips curled. In fact, Fu Chengyan wasn’t even awaiting a document; he was actually going through some information in his office.

His eyes narrowed as he traced the information with his slender fingers while flipping through it. The information concerned the Shi family and some details about Shi Wei.

Fu Chengyan tapped the papers lightly before putting them away and replying to Zhou Zheng’s text: I’m heading over now.

He adjusted his tie and got up to leave for the meeting room.

At this point, everyone began to feel impatient. Several people who followed Fu Renjiang belonged to the same faction. The people here knew what was going on but refused to believe Fu Chengyan would do anything to them. The shares that belong to a few of them didn’t add up much, but it could still cause a stir to Shengyuan’s foundation if they were to sell them off. Hence, they didn’t believe that Fu Chengyan would really dare to take action against them.

They were clearly wrong. Fu Chengyan wasn’t just going to take action; he would make a very bold move.

So the moment Fu Chengyan entered the meeting room, he tossed his documents on the table, sat down domineeringly, and asked with a slight smile on his face, “Don’t you have something to

announce, Mr. Jiang?”

“You…” Fu Renjiang’s expression looked hideous. “Are you serious about this, Fu Chengyan?”

Fu Chengyan threw his hands up. “You should know me by now, uncle Jiang.”

“And if I don’t? I may not own the most shares, but—”

“No buts!” Fu Chengyan raised his hand. “I don’t like it when people try to negotiate with me, especially when they don’t have enough bargaining chips!” Saying that, he turned to Zhou Zheng. The latter quickly took out a file and handed it to Fu Renjiang. “What Liu Jiang has isn’t the final chip but this.”

Fu Chengyan smiled. “Would you like to take a look at what’s inside?”

Fu Renjiang was stunned for a moment, but quickly put on a brave front. “I don’t believe you still have something up your sleeves. What Liu Jiang has will put me in jail at most, but I’ve already sold my shares long ago. Do you think you can threaten me like this, Fu Chengyan?”

“Sold?”

“No way!”

“That can’t be!” The other shareholders were extremely shocked. They couldn’t believe that Fu Renjiang had already sold his shares.

Those who were on Fu Renjiang began to stand up. “That’s right. The annual dividends from Shengyuan are never enough. Which shareholder hasn’t been miserable under your leadership these few years, Fu Chengyan? We’ve thought this through. Instead of working under you, it’s better to sell our shares and enjoy our freedom.”

Fu Renjiang looked at Fu Chengyan smugly. “Now that the shares aren’t in our names, we’re naturally not shareholders of Shengyuan anymore. Do you think your threats will work against me now, Fu Chengyan?”

Fu Chengyan smirked. Instead of looking fearful as Fu Renjiang had expected, he now had a profound smile on his face.

Fu Renjiang couldn’t tell what Fu Chengyan was up to, but he dared not act blindly without thinking.

Seeing the man look so nonchalant, Zhou Zheng immediately knew his boss had everything prepared, so he handed the file over to Fu Renjiang once again. “Do you really not intend to open this up, Mr. Jiang?”

After realizing the weight of the problem, Fu Renjiang opened the file given by Zhou Zheng. He instantly turned pale and fell onto his chair. “Y-You actually…”

Fu Chengyan said while tapping onto the table with his slender fingers, “Had you agreed just to announce your resignation, I would’ve never brought up that file.”

“How did you know about this?” Fu Renjiang now looked as pale as a ghost. “I don’t believe this.”

With a wave of Fu Chengyan’s hand, Zhou Zheng immediately declared, “Everyone, Mr. Fu would like to have a word with three directors in private!”

Those who regularly sided with Fu Chengyan left first. Then, those who remained neutral knew that today’s affair had now reached a foregone conclusion. They also left, not wanting to be involved.

In an instant, only Fu Chengyan and Fu Renjiang, along with two other directors, remained in the huge meeting room.

Fu Chengyan raised a hand, beckoning them to sit down.

They were all of senior age and had been through a lot, but despite having witnessed how Fu Chengyan took care of matters, they had never seen him this forceful. They finally realized the kind of person they had messed with.

“Will you not have a look?”

“T-There’s no need.”

Fu Chengyan’s lips curled. “Offshore money laundering and engaging arms dealers” – these are no small matters. His expression suddenly changed as he continued, “Shengyuan has always done business legitimately. My grandfather may have retired, but the rules are still in place.”

Fu Renjiang looked utterly defeated. “When did you find out about this?”

He couldn’t understand because he had kept things hidden so well that anyone would not be able to find out, yet Fu Chengyan knew everything. So the issues about creating false accounts under the company’s name and embezzlement of public funds weren’t Fu Chengyan’s focus at all.

In that case, the only reason he did that last night was… Fu Renjiang suddenly looked up in realization. “You had it all planned out? You got Fu Jiayu out of this and let us sell our shares? So our shares are now…”

“You’re not that dumb after all, uncle Jiang,” Fu Chengyan said as he tapped the table lightly. “It’s just a shame that you found out too late.”

“Hmm, as expected of a Fu family member and Fu Sheng’s son!” Fu Renjiang exclaimed with a pale face. Despite not enjoying the dividends anymore, he had sold his own shares, thinking that at least Fu

Chengyan would end up under other people’s control and Shengyuan’s internal affairs would be messed up.

When his other companies grew, Fu Chengyan wouldn’t be able to stand up against him.

“You set your own relative up? Are you even human, Fu Chengyan?”

“Are you my relative?” Fu Chengyan retracted his gaze and stood up before glancing at Zhou Zheng. “The three of you are no longer shareholders of Shengyuan, so please leave at once.”

“What are you all smug for, Fu Chengyan? Aren’t you afraid…”

Fu Chengyan threw a sharp glance at Fu Renjiang, then lifted his own arm to look at his watch. His lips curled when someone knocked on the door. “Mr. Fu, you have a call from downstairs. The police are looking for Mr. Jiang for a series of questioning.”

Fu Chengyan’s narrow eyes were full of sneers as he glanced sideways at an ashen Fu Renjiang. Fu Renjiang was about to pass out. “You think you can do this to me? Let me remind you that I still have Fu Jiayu in the palm of my hand…”

“Oh?” Fu Chengyan’s ice cold gaze landed on Fu Renjiang. “Then I’d like to see you try. I never do anything that I’m unsure of! Security, get Mr. Fu and his men out of here, and hand Mr. Fu over to the police!”
