446 Farewell to the Zhen Family(3)
Old Lady Zhen already knew everything from Zhen Yiping. Her old eyes were already red. "Hanyu, Qianqian, come over quickly."
Shen Hanyu held Sang Qianqian's hand and walked to the old lady.
She pulled the two of them to sit down. She held Shen Hanyu tightly with one hand and Sang Qianqian tightly with the other. "When do you plan to leave?"
"Tomorrow morning," Shen Hanyu whispered.
"Your father's matter, please look into it more carefully. I believe he is a blessed man, so it might not be impossible for him to come back safely."
The old lady was heartbroken. She said sadly, "After you go back to Ming City, remember to come back to the capital often."
Shen Hanyu and Sang Qianqian agreed.
Old Lady Zhen asked Zhen Zhu to sit next to her. She looked at the wound on her forehead and said kindly, "Have you been frightened these past two days?"
Zhen Zhu shook her head gently. "I was a little scared at first, but I wasn't anymore."
This was the first time she had been kidnapped, so how could she not be afraid?
However, when she found out about Zhen Chongming's plan, she was prepared to die, so she didn't feel afraid anymore.
"In the face of a disaster, you still know what's right and wrong. As expected of a good child of the Zhen family."
Old Lady Zhen's eyes were filled with admiration. "The corporation's matters have already been settled this afternoon, right? How do you feel?"
Zhen Zhu thought for a moment. "I'm alright. I'm not that nervous when I have Cousin accompanying me."
"Your cousin has put in a lot of effort. At least he helped you turn back before you strayed further. You have to do well and not let down him and your father's trust." The old lady instructed earnestly.
"Don't worry, Grandma. I won't disappoint everyone." Zhen Zhu's voice was gentle.
"When your father became the group's chairman, he also said this to me."
Old Lady Zhen seemed to have thought of something and continued, "Although Zhen Group's situation isn't that smooth right now, it's not like it was in the past when it was constantly facing internal and external issues. Besides, you still have your father and your cousin to guide you from behind."
She caressed the girl's head. "Even if Hanyu goes back, he can still give you a call to guide you. If there's anything you don't understand, you must ask more questions. Don't make decisions without proper thought."
"Of course, and I'm prepared to visit Ming City often."
Zhen Zhu smiled as she looked at Sang Qianqian and Shen Hanyu. "Cousin, when that time comes, please don't find me annoying."
Sang Qianqian couldn't help but smile. "Well, it's too late for me and Hanyu to not welcome you."
The few of them chatted as if there was no one else around. Zhen Yishu and her son finally heard the whole story clearly, their faces turning green.
It turned out that Zhen Yiping and Zhen Zhu, who had been enemies for more than ten years, had reconciled because of this kidnapping incident!
Zhen Zhu somehow gained her father's trust and became Zhen Group's chairman!
In this way, she really had all the rights to say "you're not qualified" earlier, and Li Zhongjin's plan to enter the company would definitely be ruined!
Zhen Yishu was both angry and resentful as she left the Zhen family's residence dejectedly. "Your maternal grandmother and uncle are so biased. They insist on treating us as outsiders and didn't even tell us about such a big matter. Especially your grandmother. She made me beg for you for such a long time, but she didn't say anything at all. This is really infuriating..."
Zhen Yishu felt like a clown that had lost all face.
Li Zhongjin's face turned green as he grit his teeth. "Mom, it's not like there's no other way to enter Zhen Group."
"What else can we do?"
Zhen Yishu held back her anger. "We've never been on good terms with Zhen Zhu. Now that she's in power, how can she let you go to the company?"
"Mom, can't you just transfer Zhen Group's shares to me?"
Li Zhongjin's eyes were gloomy. "She has become a shareholder. Even if she wants to reject it, she won't have an excuse."
Zhen Yishu was stunned and hesitated. "But I promised your grandparents that I would never change the shares under my name…"
These shares were the dowry that Old Master Zhen and Old Lady Zhen had given her when she got married.
Logically speaking, after she married into the Li family, she shouldn't be able to hold any of Zhen Group's shares.
However, out of guilt for Zhen Yixin, the old man insisted on giving her the shares. "With these shares, the Li family will never dare to look down on you or neglect you."
Of course, there were also conditions. No matter what happened, she was not allowed to change the shares under her name. She was also not allowed to interfere with Zhen Group's operations for any reason.
Zhen Yishu had never been interested in business, so she naturally agreed.
These shares brought her huge profits every year. The Li family had a crisis before, and it was her funds that helped them survive.
Just as her father had said, with this share, she would be able to do whatever she wanted in the Li family. No one would dare to look down on her.
Although both parties did not sign any agreement that the shares could not be transferred, Old Master Zhen had brought up this matter before he passed away. She had personally promised him. All these years, Zhen Yishu had indeed never thought of transferring the shares.
"Things are different now. Mom, didn't you just say that the Zhen family treats you as an outsider now?"
Li Zhongjin's eyes flashed with indignation. He encouraged, "Why do you have to keep your promise anymore?"
Zhen Yishu was still hesitant and couldn't make a decision. "Mom… Will think about it again."
She thought that she would be able to achieve her goal this time, but she didn't expect it to be in such an unfavorable manner.
Li Zhongjin got out of the car halfway and went straight to the bar.
In the dimly lit private room, he made a call and sneered, "You've only been gone for two days. Zhen Chongming, this chess piece, is already in the police station today. He can't help me at all."
"Didn't I say that your mother will use those shares to negotiate with the Zhen family?"
On the other end was a gentle female voice. She said casually, "They will definitely agree to let you enter the company."
"We haven't had the time to talk about it yet, and we can't. The old lady's tone was very firm. She didn't agree to let me go in."
Li Zhongjin was a little anxious. "Besides, my mother can talk about everything else, but the shares are never that easy to discuss. I've told my dad about it many times in the past, but she refused to agree no matter what. I'm afraid it won't work out so easily."
"Everything depends on one's effort. What are you in a hurry for?"
The female voice chuckled. "There will always be another way."
"Another method?"
Li Zhongjin laughed coldly. "Zhen Zhu is now the company's chairman. Although Shen Hanyu and Sang Qianqian are going back to Ming City, Zhen Zhu will ask him for help if there's anything she needs. With Shen Hanyu guiding her behind her back, I can't find any advantages."
There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone.
The voice was suspicious as she suddenly said, "Shen Hanyu and Sang Qianqian are going back to Ming City?"
"Something happened to Shen Hanyu's father, so they are in a hurry to go back. They will be leaving tomorrow morning."
Li Zhongjin listened to the silence on the other end and frowned. "Hello? Say something! What should I do now?"
"Yes."
The female voice regained her smile. "Soon, Shen Hanyu will be too busy to take care of himself. He won't even have the time to care about the Zhen family. For now, get the shares from your mother first."
