Chapter 692 - Wedding Gif
Jin Liwei turned to his lawyer. "Did you take note of that?"
Kang Huizhong was unable to respond right away from shock, so Jin Liwei asked him again. "Uh…" The lawyer cleared his throat and smoothed out his expression. "Sir, this is a big decision which doesn"t involve you alone but also the company, Jin Corporation. Have you thought about this matter carefully?"
Jin Liwei threw him a cold look. "I can give my own shares to whomever I want. And Xiulan isn"t just anybody. She"s going to be my wife."
Iris was concerned. "Liwei…"
"This is my wedding gift to you."
"But—"
"Don"t reject it, love."
Iris bit her lower lip before reluctantly nodding. "Okay. Thank you, darling," she said, deciding to accept it because she felt too tired to argue.
"En. You"re welcome, love," he replied, feeling pleased.
"I"ll also give you a wedding gift, then. 2.5% Orchidia Beauty and 2.5% Planet Monkey shares."
"Love, you don"t have to—"
"I accepted your wedding gift so don"t you dare reject my wedding gift to you, Liwei."
Seeing the determination in her eyes, the corner of his lips lifted into a soft smile. "Alright. I"ll accept your wedding gift. Thank you, love."
She smiled as well. "Although the total worth of these shares from my two companies are lesser and can"t compare to the 5% shares from Jin Corporation, that"s only for now. I"m optimistic that they"ll continuously increase in value with time. Maybe one day, they"ll even reach equal value with Jin Corporation"s shares. Who knows? Maybe they"ll even surpa.s.s Jin Corporation."
"En. I believe in you. I"m looking forward to that day."
Iris didn"t give him shares of her other companies, Gold Heights and Liberté (formerly known as Sang Bleu) because both were originally his gifts to her anyway. She knew that he wouldn"t allow her to "return" anything that he had already given her.
"Take care of the transfer procedures," she told her financial manager and lawyer.
Qiao Yu and Hong Shaoqiang nodded. The two didn"t mind the transfer because they both tacitly agreed that Jin Liwei would be a great a.s.set to both businesses as a shareholder. They predicted that just by Jin Liwei becoming a shareholder, Iris" two companies would increase in value just for the fact that he was THE Jin Liwei. His influence in the business world, both domestic and international, was undeniable. The name Jin Liwei alone held great power.
On the other hand, Kang Huizhong wasn"t feeling so great at Jin Liwei"s decision to transfer 5% Jin Corporation shares to Iris Long. Unfortunately, he couldn"t do anything because it wasn"t his business what Jin Liwei wanted to do with his own shares in the company. Although the lawyer had come to respect Iris especially after interacting with her more when he joined Jiang Ying Yue"s legal team during the child custody case, he still didn"t trust her that much. Yes, he knew that her company, Orchidia Beauty, was all the rage right now and were selling their products like hotcakes across the country but to Kang Huizhong, Iris Long was still nowhere near Jin Liwei"s level.
"She"s not good enough for CEO Jin Liwei."
This was what Kang Huizhong honestly thought. Even so, he still obeyed Jin Liwei"s instructions and planned to take care of the procedures to transfer 5% of Jin Corporation"s shares to Iris Long.
The meeting continued for a few more minutes but when Jin Liwei noticed his baby girl yawning and her eyes becoming heavy, he finally ended the meeting and dismissed everyone. They all left the home office together. The butler came and led Qiao Yu and the two lawyers on the way out.
It was almost midnight now.
Both the cats were asleep. Jin Liwei took the heavy Ice Cream from Iris while Lu Zihao handed Popcorn to Dom. Even Lu Zihao didn"t notice how extra gentle his movements were in order not to wake the cat.
"Do you resent me for forcing you to get a prenup?" he asked the couple but his eyes were on his sister.
Iris shook her head. "I know that you only did it for me. Thank you for caring about me, Big Brother."
Jin Liwei nodded, agreeing with her, and then gave his Fifth Brother a look of acknowledgement. At first, he was unhappy that Lu Zihao meddled in their affairs as a couple but since he and his baby girl ended up feeling satisfied with the prenup in the end, he didn"t intend on blaming or resenting his sworn brother. However, he couldn"t say that he was thankful to him like his baby girl for what happened.
Lu Zihao walked over to them and tapped the tip of Iris" nose with his finger. "Go rest. You"re almost asleep on your feet."
"Yeah. I"m so tired," she mumbled.
"I"ll carry you to our bedroom," Jin Liwei said.
"No, darling. You carry Ice Cream. Dom can"t carry both cats. He"ll wake them up if he tries. I can still walk. Don"t worry about me."
Lu Zihao looked at his sister"s exhausted and sleepy face before turning to Jin Liwei. "I"ll carry that fat cat. You carry my sister. She needs to rest soon."
Jin Liwei immediately gave Ice Cream to Lu Zihao before carrying Iris like a princess, not giving her any time to protest.
"Good night, Big Brother," Iris mumbled while wrapping her arms around Jin Liwei"s neck.
"Good night," Lu Zihao replied, and then addressed Jin Liwei. "Take care of her."
"Always," Jin Liwei answered.
Lu Zihao nodded, satisfied.
The couple left first.
"Where do we drop off the cats?" Lu Zihao asked.
"In their room. Please follow me, Big Brother Boss," Dom said, and then added, "You"re so gentle to your niece and nephew. Ehehe."
Lu Zihao"s expression went blank for a few seconds, not understanding what the guy meant before realizing that he was talking about the cats. Then Lu Zihao"s roguish persona activated, flas.h.i.+ng his devilish smile to Dom. "Heh...you think so?"
"Kya!"
Dom felt like he was going to hyperventilate again but for another reason this time.
