Chapter 799: Chapter 040: How About We make a deal
Lu Zhixuan hadn’t said a word until Lu Manjiang finished speaking. Then, he pushed a doc.u.ment in front of ye Zhen. Ye Zhen didn’t quite understand, so she picked up the doc.u.ment.
Looking at the contents of the doc.u.ment, ye Zhen’s eyes widened. She looked at Lu Manjiang and Lu Zhixuan in disbelief.
“How could there be this? How could my father sign this?”
This was impossible. This did not fit ye Nanshan’s personality at all. With ye Nanshan’s personality, how could he sign such a clause that was completely unfavorable to him?
Lu Manjiang snorted, his eyes filled with coldness. “Yes. If your father were in his current position, how could he sign such a clause that could almost be considered as a Yes?”
Ye Zhen stared at the doc.u.ment. The shock in her heart still lingered.
It was an agreement, an agreement between ye Nanshan and Lu Zhen. The date of the agreement could be seen. The agreement was almost twenty years old.
The agreement stated that the drawing company would be set up by Lu he and ye Nanshan. Other than the shares needed for the financing, the remaining shares would be jointly owned by the two of them.
The division of the shares was not the main point of the agreement. The main point was that it stated that ye Nanshan and Lu Yi were husband and wife. The two of them jointly owned everything in the company.
However, if during the period of their marriage, either party betrayed the marriage, the person who betrayed the marriage must unconditionally transfer the company’s shares to the other party.
“Back then, I didn’t agree to your mother marrying your father at all. However, your mother was a stubborn person. She wanted to be with your father wholeheartedly. No matter how I tried to stop her, she wouldn’t waver. In the end, I could only agree
“After your mother got married, she wholeheartedly started a company for your father and started a business. I watched her run around tiredly. Even when I was pregnant with you back then, she was still running around with clients. My heart ached for her. “But I saw that your father was a cold-hearted person. I saw that he was a cold-hearted person.”
Lu Manjiang said until here, his voice could not hide his sadness. “I know your mother’s personality. She would not believe anything without seeing the truth. “I was helpless. I could only look for your father in private when their company was set up and ask him to sign this agreement.”
“My father agreed?”How was that possible? This didn’t seem like ye Nanshan’s style at all.
“He had no choice but to agree.”Lu Manjiang still remembered ye Nanshan’s att.i.tude at that time, he even felt that it was ironic. “At that time, your mother was pregnant and with you, your father probably needed to use your mother to get more. So, he agreed at that time.”
What Lu Manjiang did not say was how ye Nanshan swore that he would never betray Lu He. He said that he was completely sincere to Lu he and did not need to sign such an agreement.
But who was Lu Manjiang? He did not believe ye Nanshan at all. A man’s actions were made, not spoken.
He was very insistent. Moreover, he said that if ye Nanshan did not agree to sign, it meant that he was not sincere to Lu he. Since he was not sincere, why would lu she continue to work for him?
Ye Nanshan was a cunning person. Later on, he knew that he could not win against Lu Manjiang, so he could only agree. After agreeing, he did not forget to take this agreement to Lu Yi and tell her how deeply he loved her.
As expected, Lu Yi was deeply moved. In the days that followed, she worked even harder for the company.
When Lu Manjiang thought of his daughter’s foolishness back then, he felt sad. However, ye Nanshan was ye Zhen’s biological father after all. Those things could be left out.
Ye Zhen nodded. She held the agreement in her hands, but she still had questions. “Grandfather, if that’s the case, why didn’t you take it out when my mother pa.s.sed away?”
“I was very sad when your mother pa.s.sed away. Plus, you were still young. Your mother entered into a will and divided the property into two, giving it to you and your father.”
“This was your mother’s last wish. We thought that you were his biological daughter after all. He had to take care of some things, but who would have thought –”
Lu Manjiang did not say anything else after that. It was just that the old age on his face was becoming more and more obvious.
If it was not for his acquaintance in the court who told him about this, he would not have known that ye Nanshan was actually such a beast. A beast would even sue his own daughter in court for a little share and some property.
What was even more outrageous was that he still had the cheek to say that Lu e was delirious when she died?
Lu Manjiang’s chest heaved violently when he thought of what ye Nanshan had done. Seeing this, Lu Zhixuan stepped forward and patted him on the back.
“Dad, don’t be angry. Zhen Zhen is old now. Let’s give this doc.u.ment to Zhen Zhen. Let Zhen Zhen decide what to do next.”
In fact, with Lu Zhixuan’s personality, he really wanted to kill ye Nanshan at any moment.
But no matter what, he was ye Zhen’s biological father. Whether it was him or Lu Manjiang, he didn’t want to make things difficult for ye Zhen.
“Thank you, Grandpa. Thank you, Uncle.”
Ye Zhen looked at the doc.u.ment. Now, no matter what ye Nanshan did next, she wasn’t afraid anymore.
She really didn’t care how much money she could get, but she really didn’t want her mother’s hard work to end up benefiting others.
“Zhen Zhen, do what you want to do. No matter what, Grandpa will support you.”
“Okay. Thank you, Grandpa.”
Ye Zhen took the doc.u.ment and left the Lu family. She felt that the anger she had been holding in her heart for the past few days was finally relieved.
She was not in a hurry to go home. Instead, she went to lawyer Tang and showed him the doc.u.ment.
Lawyer Tang said that this was a very good breakthrough point. Ye Ninghan and ye Nanshan were father and daughter, and Ye Nanshan had given birth to Ye Jianhao less than half a year after he married Chen Wan.
Both of these matters could be considered an affair, and with this doc.u.ment in hand,. Ye Zhen wanted to fight ye Nanshan again, so she was basically guaranteed to win.
Since ye Zhen trusted lawyer Tang, she had full authority to handle these professional matters.
Ye Zhen made a copy of the doc.u.ment and gave it to lawyer Tang. Only then did ye Zhen bring the original back home. Unexpectedly, when she entered the house, she found that Li Junsheng was not there.
His hand injury had not recovered yet, and the incident at the west side factory had already come to an end. Could it be that he had gone to work?
This person really did not know how to cherish his own body. Could it be that he did not know that if he were to work so hard, would he be worried?
It was useless to persuade him. Ye Zhen Thought for a moment and searched for some tonic medicine on the internet. She planned to wait for Li Junsheng to come back later and give him a good tonic.
In the end, she waited for an entire night, but Li Junsheng still did not come back. Ye Zhen called Li Junsheng, but found her phone on the coffee table.
Ye Zhen suddenly had a bad feeling. She took out her phone and searched for local news.
The explosion at the west side factory was still under investigation. It was only said that the person in charge of the factory and the person responsible were all detained.
Other than that, there was no other news. What exactly happened?
Ye Zhen was so worried that she didn’t sleep well the whole night.
Li Junsheng, is he okay? She really hoped that he simply didn’t bring his phone and nothing else happened.
..
Ye Zhen entered the company with a pair of dark circles under her eyes. As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw Chu Tai walking in her direction in a hurry.
“What’s Wrong?”
Chu Tai stopped and looked in the direction of the Chairman’s office. She looked a little troubled. “The old chairman is here.”
“Is that so?”Ye Zhen was stunned. Ye Nanshan still had time to come over these few days?
Shouldn’t he be at home right now trying to think of a way to regain his shares? Of course, his actions would be in vain. After all, she had the agreement in her hands now.
“I understand. Thank you.”Ye Zhen yawned. She had not slept well the whole night and was really sleepy. “Make me a cup of coffee and postpone the morning meeting by half an hour.”
“Yes.”
Chu Tai backed off, and Ye Zhen braced herself. Thinking of the doc.u.ment in her hand, she pushed open the office door without any fear.
Ye Nanshan was still sitting behind the chairman’s desk. Ye Ninghan and Chen Wan were still standing on both sides of him.
Tsk. Every time ye Nanshan appeared, he would always do this. It was boring, really boring.
Ye Zhen’s face was dark. She walked straight to the chairman’s desk and stood there.
“Mr. Ye, this is my seat. Please make way.”
“What did you call me?”The last time she called him that in court, ye Nanshan had already acc.u.mulated a bellyful of anger.
Ye Nanshan looked at his daughter. Right now, he really hated himself. Why didn’t he strangle this rebellious daughter to death back then.
“Ye Zhen, you’ve got guts. You’ve actually disobeyed your father and even dared to sue him.”
Ye Zhen didn’t respond. She sued ye Nanshan not because she had guts, but because she wanted to stall for time.
“Mr. Ye. You’ve done the first day of the Lunar New Year, so can’t I Be Fifteen?”
It was really funny. He could disregard his own daughter’s feelings for money, but her daughter had to care about his feelings?
Unfortunately, the Qing dynasty was dead. She really didn’t have the habit of being foolish and filial.
“Ye Zhen, don’t be arrogant. I didn’t come here today to play games with you.”
“I can see that.”Ye Zhen nodded. “If you have something to say, say it. My time is very precious. I still have a meeting later. I still have to meet a client. After all, I’m not like Mr. Ye. When I was chairman in the past, there were always people who worked for you. You just have to sit here and not move.”
“Ye Zhen, what’s Your Att.i.tude?”Ye Nanshan was so angry that his face was red. He was about to flare up. Ye Ninghan stepped forward and patted his back.
“Dad, don’t be angry. Don’t forget that we’re here today because we have something important to tell sister.”
Ye Nanshan’s expression softened slightly, but he looked at ye Zhen with a little more arrogance. “We’re here today because we want you to transfer the 20% of your shares to me.”
Ye Zhen looked at him as if she had heard a fairy tale. “What did Mr. Ye Say?”
“I said, transfer the 20% of your shares to me free of charge.”
“Huh.”Ye Zhen wanted to laugh. “Why? I even asked you to transfer your shares to me.”
“Why?”It was ye Ninghan who answered. She walked around the desk and stood in front of ye Zhen. “Because of Li Junsheng.”
Li Junsheng?
Seeing ye Zhen’s expression, Ye Ninghan smiled.
“Our mayor Li didn’t come back yesterday, did he?”
Ye Zhen narrowed her eyes and looked at ye Ninghan sharply. “What did you do?”
“Actually, you should ask our mayor Li what he did.”Ye Ninghan smiled with a hint of mockery. Ye Zhen had a bad premonition.
“Your mayor Li is being called to investigate. You know about the explosion at the West Side Factory, right? The latest evidence shows that your mayor Li is related to this matter.”
“Impossible.”Although ye Zhen had not spent much time with Li Junsheng, she believed in him. He was definitely not someone who would do anything against the rules.
“You really trust him. But unfortunately, you trusted the wrong person.”Ye Ninghan smiled, the corners of her lips could not help but curl up. “Your mayor Li has indeed been taken away by someone. Ye Zhen, without your backer, I wonder how long you will be able to stay in the position of chairman Yi without your backer.”
Ye Zhen didn’t say anything. At this moment, her heart was full of worry for Li Junsheng.
If Li Junsheng had anything to do with the explosion, she naturally wouldn’t believe it. Li Junsheng had only been in Qingcheng for a few months, and the west side factory had been opened for a long time. How could it have anything to do with it?
If she had to say it, she could only say that ye Ninghan was spouting nonsense.
“If I Were you, you’d be more sensible and give up the position of chairman to father. Of course, you have to give up the shares of the company as well. Otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t have a good ending in the future.”
“Ye Ninghan, are you done? If you’re done, then leave.”
“Ye Zhen, what are you so proud of? Didn’t you hear what I Said? Li Junsheng has already fallen. If you’re smart, then obediently hand over the shares in your hands and give up the position of chairman.”
“You’re so noisy.”Ye Zhen gave her a cold look. Her gaze was full of ridicule. “What does Li Junsheng’s accident have to do with me? I’m sitting in this position because the other shareholders of the company agreed unanimously. You want me to give up?”
“Ye Zhen, are you out of your mind? Don’t you know in your heart why those shareholders agreed? They did it for the sake of Li Junsheng. Now that Li Junsheng has lost power, do you think you can sit firmly in this position?”
“That’s my business. Don’t worry about it. If there’s nothing else, please leave.”
“Ye Zhen, no matter what, you’re just a junior. Your father is your elder. Aren’t you afraid of retribution for going against your Father Like This?”
Chen Wan’s words made ye Zhen laugh. She was sick of watching Chen Wan’s decades of hypocrisy. Especially when this face could be the person who killed her mother, she became even more resentful.
“Ms. Chen, I suggest you don’t speak. You talk about karma. As a mistress, I’m afraid that you will have your retribution before I do.”
“You –”
“Ye Zhen.”Ye Nanshan, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke. “I advise you not to refuse a toast. Old Shen and old Zhang were only doing this for Li Junsheng’s sake. You know this much better than I do. “If you don’t want to make things too ugly… “It’s better for you to obediently give up your position.”
“What if I don’t give up?”Ye Zhen looked at Ye Nanshan. This was her father, her biological father.
Grandpa’s words really made sense. Ye Nanshan was indeed not a good man.
“I have evidence of Li Junsheng’s bribery,”ye Ninghan said coldly, her eyes were full of pride. “If you don’t know what’s good for you, I’ll have to show you no mercy. If you’re smart, I might be able to let Li Junsheng go.”
Evidence of Li Junsheng’s bribery? Who would believe it.
Ye Zhen’s gaze swept across ye Nanshan and the others. She suddenly smiled. “Okay. You can try it. give the evidence to the prosecutor’s office and see if I’m afraid.”
“Ye Zhen, are you trying to walk a straight path to the end?”
“Ye Zhen, Li Junsheng helped you so much previously. Why? You’re quite ruthless now. I wonder how Li Junsheng will feel when he finds out that you’re so cold-hearted.”
Chen Wan deliberately provoked ye Zhen, but ye Zhen remained unmoved.
In her heart, she completely trusted Li Junsheng and his character. But looking at Ye Ninghan and ye Junsheng, they seemed to be very confident.
She didn’t know much about the officialdom. If they really played dirty tricks, Li Junsheng wouldn’t be able to guard against them.
Also, a strong dragon couldn’t suppress a local snake. Uncle Li was powerful, but he was a newcomer after all.
Could it be that Li Junsheng really used special methods to achieve his goal last time with director Zhang and the others? She didn’t want to think that way, but the current situation made her somewhat worried.
No. Ye Zhen didn’t believe it. She didn’t want to believe that Li Junsheng was that kind of person. With that thought, she immediately regained her composure.
“Mr. Ye, if you’re done talking, then hurry up and leave. I still have things to do, so I won’t accompany you.”
“Ye Zhen, I didn’t expect you to be so cold-blooded. Do you really not care about Li Junsheng going to jail?”
“Then let’s wait until you let him go to jail first.”
“Okay, just you wait.”
Ye Ninghan turned to look at ye Nanshan. “Dad, since sister is so stubborn, there’s no need for us to waste any more words. I’d like to see what you can rely on after Li Junsheng really goes to jail.”
Ye Nanshan stood up and the group walked out.
Ye Zhen trusted Li Junsheng, but she was afraid that ye Ninghan had really prepared some dirty tricks.
Just as ye Ninghan’s hand was about to touch the door handle, she suddenly spoke.
“Mr. Ye.”
Ye Ninghan had a triumphant smile on her face. She turned around and looked at ye Zhen. “What’s the matter? Are You Afraid?”
Ye Zhen didn’t look at her, but at ye Nanshan. This man had been deceiving his mother’s feelings from the very beginning.
Grandpa and the others had never taken out the agreement from back then. Thinking about it, did ye Nanshan think that the agreement was gone or that it could be nullified?
The agreement was in her hands. She could have made ye Nanshan Scram just like that. She could have taken back all his remaining shares.
But now that something like Li Junsheng had happened, she took a deep breath and looked at ye Nanshan.
“Mr. Ye, you are doing all these things to protect your position in the general drawing company. But if you have nothing, will you still have a position?”
“What do you mean?”
Ye Zhen did not say anything. She took out her phone and opened her photo alb.u.m.
The original doc.u.ment was naturally kept at home by her, but she had taken a copy yesterday.
“It seems that Mr. Ye’s memory isn’t very good, so I have to remind you.”
“Mr. Ye, in order to please my mother, you once signed an agreement. I think you should still remember the contents of the agreement, right?”
Ye Nanshan’s expression changed. He looked at ye Zhen, and his expression suddenly became a little ferocious. Especially when he saw the agreement on his phone, his face turned ashen. “You –”
“Mr. Ye.”. “You cheated on me several times during your marriage with my mother.”. “According to the agreement, all the a.s.sets under your name will be transferred to my mother free of charge.”. “If my mother is gone, then all the a.s.sets will be transferred to my mother’s child.”. “That’s me.”
She took a deep breath and looked at ye Nanshan’s changed expression with satisfaction, it was good that he still acknowledged it. “Now, this agreement is in my hands. Mr. Ye, you still have 40% of the shares of the painting company under your name. But according to the agreement, these shares are all mine.”
“Ye Zhen, in your dreams.”Ye Ninghan was furious. She stepped forward, wanting to s.n.a.t.c.h the other party’s phone to see clearly.
Ye Zhen took a step back, not giving ye Ninghan the chance. She just looked at ye Nanshan. “This agreement was notarized in the past. Mr. Ye, you won’t forget it, right?”
Of course, ye Nanshan remembered, but after Lu Hui gave birth to ye Zhen, their relations.h.i.+p at that time was pretty good. He coaxed Lu Yi to destroy the agreement.
He had clearly seen Lu Yi destroy the agreement. Where did the agreement come from?
Could it be that Lu Yi was acting from the beginning to the end? d.a.m.n it, that d.a.m.n woman. She didn’t let him have a good time when she was alive, but she still wanted to cause trouble for him after she died.
He didn’t speak, but ye Zhen knew what he was thinking. She took a deep breath. She didn’t want to give up 40% of the shares, but in this situation, she had no choice.
“Mr. Ye, let’s talk about a condition.”
“What?”
“Give me all the evidence you have related to Li Junsheng. And I will destroy this agreement. What do you think?”
“Then how do we know that you will really destroy it?”
“Then how do I know that you will hand over the real evidence to me?”
They did not trust each other, so who was better than the other? Ye Zhen did not believe that people like ye Nanshan, who had a bad character, would really hand over the evidence.
Ye Nanshan and Chen Wan looked at each other. Ye Ninghan spoke first.
“Ye Zhen, you don’t have to test us here. We want Li Junsheng’s evidence to be useless. If you don’t believe us, why don’t we make an appointment and give you the evidence of Li Junsheng’s crime and you give us the agreement?”
“That’s right.”Chen Wan echoed, “In that case, everyone can rest a.s.sured.”
Ye Nanshan didn’t say anything. It was obvious that he tacitly agreed with Chen Wan and her daughter’s suggestion.
Ye Zhen pursed her lips into a straight line. She thought for a moment and nodded heavily, “Okay, it’s a deal. Tomorrow Morning at Ten o’clock, you bring the evidence to me, and I will bring the agreement to be destroyed.”
“Alright.”
Ye Ninghan was satisfied. She turned around and looked at ye Nanshan. He didn’t have any objections.
At first, she wanted to ask ye Zhen to give up all the shares in ye Zhen’s hands. But now it seemed that she had to protect the 40% in his hands first.
As for the rest of the matter, she could only take it slowly. Anyway, as long as she destroyed the agreement, the rest of the matter was easy to discuss.
Ye Nanshan and his group left, but ye Zhen could not rest in peace.
Did Ye Ninghan really have evidence? What kind of evidence could it be? What exactly was the reason for uncle Li being taken away?
Uncle Li, what exactly happened to you? Why haven’t you returned yet?
Ye Zhen’s heart was in a mess.
