“President Yan, First Madam just called me to meet her at the company . ”
Attorney Xiao was on the other line .
“Got it,” Yan Rusheng replied and hung up .
“I'll go outside to wait for him . ” Jiang Qinglian slung her handbag over her arm and rose to leave .
She was wearing high heels, and her originally chubby figure had visibly shrunk in the last few days .
Yan Rusheng watched as Jiang Qinglian left . The words he wanted to say seemed to choke his throat .
He held his white porcelain cup and took a sip of the coffee that had gone cold . He then placed it down .
He turned on his laptop and began working . After an hour, Attorney Xiao arrived .
He was carrying a briefcase that seemed to be bursting with documents . He walked towards Yan Rusheng and offered a bow of respect . “President . ”
Yan Rusheng raised his head and slumped against the back of his chair . He propped a hand on the arm of his swivel chair and massaged his temples .
Attorney Xiao briefly scanned him . He seemed to hesitate before he carefully spoke . “First Madam has instructed me to sign the transfer documents in the afternoon . ”
Yan Rusheng nodded . “Got it . ”
He sounded exhausted .
Attorney Xiao became hesitant and whispered, “First Madam, she… wanted to sell her shares to—”
Yan Rusheng finished his sentence on his behalf . “Paramount . ”
Yan Rusheng's face visibly darkened, and it made Attorney Xiao shudder a little . He bowed his head and didn't dare to make another sound .
Paramount and Flourish & Prosper had a disagreement decades ago . When Old Madam Wang was alive, she had excellent connections that extended overseas . This made everyone in the industry look at her in awe of her capability and character .
The only person who had an argument with her was Jiang Shaomei, who had recently become the CEO of Paramount . Paramount then wasn't as established and large as it was now . Its glory and achievements were all because of Jiang Shaomei .
But her reputation wasn't as good for she had resorted to unscrupulous methods to achieve what she wanted .
So, when Attorney Xiao wanted to break the news that Jiang Qinglian intended to sell her shares earlier on, Yan Rusheng was anxious for both himself and Jiang Qinglian .
There were so many eager prospective buyers waiting to get a slice of Flourish & Prosper, and yet she chose Paramount .
Was she intentionally trying to go against the Yan family and President Yan?
“You may leave,” Yan Rusheng said . He sounded cold and distant .
Attorney Xiao didn't dare to dawdle and promptly left the room .
After he had shut the door softly after him, he heard loud shattering sounds .
Attorney Xiao badly trembled .
The porcelain cup smashed into tiny fragments on the floor, and the coffee splashed everywhere .
Yan Rusheng stood up and walked to the windows . As he walked, he adjusted his collar .
'Third Yan, I'm leaving the company and the family in your care . You must promise me not to let the family fall apart . I didn't really take care of Rusen and Runan, and I know it's unfair to them . But your First Aunt is a good person, and if something, and I mean if anything really happens to your First Uncle's family, you have to step up to take charge . I feel that your First Aunt is the person I have let down the most in my entire life . '
'Your First Uncle and First Aunt's marriage is an interlinked arrangement . Your First Uncle's personality—anyway, First Aunt had done a lot for the family . If she falls out with your First Uncle in the future, do try to console her . '
