Chapter 139 - 139 139 The Ji Familys Wedding Gift

Chapter 139: Chapter 139: The Ji Family’s Wedding Gift Chapter 139: Chapter 139: The Ji Family’s Wedding Gift Zhu Qianying nodded readily, and the three quickly took their seats at a mini bar on the first floor.

Zhu Qianyu, being a child who didn’t drink alcohol, obediently poured herself a glass of the orange juice that the two brats Beibei and Guoguo drank, while Zhu Qianying and Ji Huan opened a bottle of red wine.

Zhu Qianying thought that Ji Huan had asked to see her just to chat. After all, although she had a very good impression of Ji Huan, they had only met a few times and weren’t close friends.

Even though Ji Huan was currently stationed at the production base in L City, saying to her that she could come to him for anything while they were in the same city, Zhu Qianying, not being a person who liked to trouble others, had not actively sought him out recently, thinking that he was busy.

The two didn’t interact much, so when Ji Huan slid a stack of documents in front of her, Zhu Qianying was quite unsure of what it was about.

“What’s this?”

Zhu Qianying put her finger on the stack of documents, not rushing to flip through it.

“The stock transfer agreement of Mingxuan Hotel!” Ji Huan didn’t beat around the bush, he straightaway revealed the answer.

Zhu Qianying was greatly surprised. She didn’t fully understand Ji Huan’s true intentions but didn’t ask any further and started reviewing the files.

As Ji Huan had said, it was a stock transfer form for five percent of the shares in the Mingxuan Group. The transferrer was Ji Huan, but the transferee was not “Zhu Qianyu,” who Zhu Qianying had assumed, but herself, Zhu Qianying.

“Ji Huan, I don’t quite understand what you mean. Is there a mistake in the recipient?”

Ji Huan was Qianyu’s boyfriend. It would make sense for him to transfer shares to Qianyu, but it didn’t make sense to give them to her, the future aunt.

But Ji Huan said very seriously, “No, there’s no mistake, it’s you! This is a wedding gift from the Ji family to you.”

Zhu Qianying was even more surprised, “Ji Huan, this gift is too valuable, I can’t accept it!”

It seemed that Ji Huan had anticipated her reaction, he patted her shoulder and continued.

“Ying Zi, listen to me. These five percent shares were bought by me when the stock of Mingxuan Group was at its lowest. At that time, the share price of Mingxuan had hit rock bottom. I bought them in a few installments, for a total sum that wasn’t worth much. To me, it’s just a small amount of money. But to you and Qian Yu, these shares have special significance.”

Despite Ji Huan’s explanation, Zhu Qianying still felt it wasn’t right. She put her hand on the transfer agreement and pushed it back towards Ji Huan.

“Ji Huan, isn’t it inappropriate? Why don’t you give this to Xiao Yu instead?”

Even though Zhu Qianying really wanted to have these five percent shares, what reason did she have to accept them?

The proverb goes ‘No pay, no gain’ – her relationship with the Ji family and Ji Huan was merely dependent on Qian Yu. The Ji family has been extremely kind to her and her mother, something very evident from how well they cared for her at the Yan Family gathering today.

But since Qian Yu was only Ji Huan’s girlfriend, strictly speaking, even Qian Yu didn’t have substantive relationship with the Ji family, let alone her.

Accepting such a large blessing out of the blue was something she couldn’t handle!

Zhu Qianyu, who had been quietly sipping juice from the side while all this happened, was getting concerned to see her sister so determined. She put down her glass to say something, but Ji Huan grabbed her hand and gently patted the back of it, reassuring her not to worry, that he would handle it.

However, Ji Huan pushed the file back in front of Zhu Qianying, “Ying Zi, the credit for Qian Yu’s upbringing in the Zhu family without any major problems is owed to you more than anyone. Your hard work and dedication, I understand and appreciate it thoroughly. Of course, I hope that you and Young Master Yan can have a blissful future, but if some unforeseeable circumstance arises, this five percent of shares can serve as a security for you and Aunt Jing’s lives.”

After interacting with Zhu Qianying for a while, Ji Huan was able to gauge her temperament well. She was a person with strong self-esteem who wouldn’t easily accept others’ charity or gifts. But he and Qian Yu were indeed worried about her, hence, wanted to provide her with this small bit of security in this way.

Hearing Ji Huan say this, Zhu Qianying knew that to continue declining would be to slight his sincere intentions.

“Alright, I’ll accept these shares for now. For the time being, let’s just think of them as your betrothal gifts to Xiao Yu, okay?”

Ji Huan didn’t care under what pretext the gift was given. All he wanted was a favorable outcome.

“Alright, alright, you can consider it whatever you want.”

Seeing Zhu Qianying sign her name on it, both Ji Huan and Zhu Qianyu breathed a sigh of relief.

This stock transfer agreement, which had been prepared a few days in advance, had all the formalities completed, and the transferrer and notary had all signed. The transfer date was a few days ago, and once Zhu Qianying signed it, the agreement immediately took effect.

Since the date on the transfer agreement was before Zhu Qianying’s marriage to Young Master Yan, it was considered Zhu Qianying’s pre-marital property.

Of course, Ji Huan didn’t consider the fact that Zhu Qianying and Young Master Yan hadn’t even officially registered their marriage as of that morning. He naturally assumed that someone as wealthy as Young Master Yan wouldn’t quibble over these minor shares with Zhu Qianying.

Ji Huan was only thinking from the perspective of Qian Yu as a younger sister. By chance, if something were to happen to Zhu Qianying’s marriage with Young Master Yan, possessing these five percent shares in Mingxuan would at least provide some security for her and her mother Chen Jing’s lives.

“Ji Huan, thank you, and thank your family too!”

Zhu Qianying put down the pen, picked up her cup and gestured towards Ji Huan, “I will always remember your kindness. I won’t say too many formalities. This glass of wine is a toast to you all!”

After Zhu Qianying finished speaking, she raised her head and drained half a glass of red wine in one gulp.

“Ying Zi, even though you’re Qian Yu’s older sister, I consider you as my own sister. In the future, whatever it is, you and Aunt Jing can come to me. If you’re not comfortable discussing with me, you can directly approach my mother. She understands women’s issues much better than I do.”

Ji Huan genuinely admired and respected Zhu Qianying. Over the past couple of days, due to their professional interactions, his understanding of Young Master Yan had gradually increased. As he began to understand more, he could vaguely guess Young Master Yan’s attitude towards this marriage.

Although he wasn’t sure if his speculation was one hundred percent accurate, at least, the current emotional state between Zhu Qianying and Yan was far from being as good and optimistic as the naive Zhu Qianyu believed!

Zhu Qianyu followed up saying, “Yeah, sis, you must tell us whatever happens in the future. I’m not a child anymore. If there’s a problem, I can help you solve it!”

Zhu Qianying poured herself another half glass of wine and touched her glass with Qianyu’s orange juice, “Alright, I got it! I will definitely notify you in the future. Here’s to the future Director Zhu!”

Zhu Qianyu’s dream was to become a director, and she was currently taking steps towards achieving her dream. Recently, she was preparing to shoot a web drama, which was why Zhu Qianying teased her like this.
