Chapter 75: Chapter 75: Getting Shot Even When Lying Down

Qin Yi went straight home after parting ways with Liu Zhanyuan.

Xia Yanbing had already returned.

Both Dong Jinsu and Xia Yujiang were there, but they looked displeased.

Only Lin Hongzhuang was smiling foolishly.

"Xiaobing, you’re too impulsive. I worked so hard to secure the general manager position for you, and you just say you’ll quit?" Xia Yujiang said angrily.

Xia Yanbing replied coldly, "Dad, I earned this general manager position on my own merits. If anyone fought for it, it was me using my own ability."

"You..." Xia Yujiang pointed angrily at Xia Yanbing, "You’re becoming more and more outrageous, even daring to contradict me?"

"If you quit, Wenlin will definitely take over your position. How will I be able to hold my head up in front of your aunt?" Dong Jinsu complained, spitting furiously.

"Uncle, Auntie, please don’t blame Bingbing. She had no choice. Could she really just watch Xia Wentao jump off the Xia Group’s building?" Lin Hongzhuang tried to mediate.

"Bingbing, it’s okay. You were quite stifled as the general manager anyway. Take a good rest for a while, let’s go travel? Once you’re in a better mood, come work at my company as the general manager." Lin Hongzhuang said happily.

"By then, I’ll be your deputy. Together, we’ll be unstoppable, and we’ll definitely earn as much as you did at Xia Group."

Dong Jinsu’s expression changed immediately, "Linlin, can Xiaobing really be the general manager at your company?"

"Of course, I also have shares and I’m a shareholder. My word counts in our family." Lin Hongzhuang patted her chest as she said.

"Oh, that’s wonderful. In that case, I’m still the mother of a general manager. Xiaobing’s aunt can’t flaunt herself in front of me." Dong Jinsu’s laugh was nauseating.

"Bingbing, cheer up. Let’s celebrate well tonight, celebrate your escape from suffering and your glorious future." Lin Hongzhuang cheered with raised hands.

Xia Yanbing, however, couldn’t feel happy at all, "The Xia Group is now practically the Shen Group. If my second brother Xia Wenlin takes over, with the current state of Xia Group, it won’t last half a year."

"Bingbing, you’re not even the general manager of Xia Group anymore, why worry so much?" Lin Hongzhuang comforted, "Think about happy things, like where we’re going to travel, without Qin Yi tagging along. It’ll just be us two, and I’ll be with you wherever you go."

Qin Yi smiled wryly, this woman really is something, he hadn’t even spoken, and yet he got dragged into it.

"But I’m still a Xia by name, and the Xia Group was left by Grandpa. Now it’s like this." Xia Yanbing was a bit sad.

"You’re unhappy because he’s annoying, right?" Lin Hongzhuang pointed at Qin Yi, "You, go to your room, don’t irritate Bingbing by being here."

"..." Qin Yi gritted his teeth, this woman really is something, he hadn’t said a word, yet somehow it was his fault? Women indeed are unreasonable creatures, is it because he refused her twisted request for an argument before? Holding a grudge until now?

Lin Hongzhuang waited for Qin Yi, "Disappear immediately, Bingbing is in a bad mood now, if I hit you she won’t help."

Qin Yi was speechless, fine, I’ll leave, alright? Qin Yi wheeled himself back to his room.

"Good that you know your place, humph..." Lin Hongzhuang was smug, "Bingbing, now that the eyesore is gone, cheer up, give us a smile..."

Xia Yanbing’s smile was a bitter one.

At that moment, the doorbell rang.

The Xia family’s housekeeper went over to open the door, and standing outside was a handsome and refined-looking man.

"May I ask if Miss Xia Yanbing is here?" the man asked politely.

"Miss, someone’s here to see you." the housekeeper said.

Xia Yanbing walked to the door with a puzzled frown, "Why are you here?"

It turned out to be Shen Zhengwen.

Shen Zhengwen smiled politely, "Ms. Xia, I heard about what happened today, but by the time I got back you were already gone. So, I had to intrude by visiting."

"Is there something you need?" Xia Yanbing didn’t like Shen Zhengwen, because now her Xia Group had nearly become the Shen Group.

"I would like to invite you to continue serving as the general manager of Xia Group." Shen Zhengwen smiled and said.

Upon hearing this, Dong Jinsu ran over eagerly.

"So you are Chairman Shen?"

"And you are?" Shen Zhengwen was a bit stunned, this old woman’s smile was truly nauseating.

"I am Xiaobing’s mom."

Shen Zhengwen was a bit stunned but smiled, "Hello, Auntie!"

"Oh my, Chairman Shen is indeed a handsome and talented young man, come in and sit down." Dong Jinsu beamed with a smile.

Shen Zhengwen nodded and walked in.

"Is that Shen Zhengwen?" Lin Hongzhuang asked quietly.

Xia Yanbing nodded slightly.

"Chairman Xia is also here?" Shen Zhengwen greeted Xia Yujiang.

After sitting down, Shen Zhengwen said, "I came today to invite Miss Xia to continue holding the position of general manager at Xia Group."

"Ah, that’s truly wonderful news. Chairman Shen, I thank you on behalf of my Xiaobing." Dong Jinsu showered him with flattery.

Xia Yanbing walked over and said coolly, "Chairman Shen, thank you for your kindness, but I have already confirmed my resignation."

"Xiaobing, are you crazy?" Dong Jinsu said anxiously.

"Being a general manager without real power is no different from a puppet. I’m exhausted over the years, it’s better to take this time to rest well."

"Xiaobing, don’t be willful. Chairman Shen personally came to invite you, giving you much respect. How could you refuse such a good offer?" Dong Jinsu shouted.

"Bingbing has already decided to work at my company." Lin Hongzhuang said proudly.

"How could another company’s good compare to your own family’s?" Dong Jinsu said.

Shen Zhengwen said, "Miss Xia, actually your contract with the company hasn’t expired yet. Plus, I haven’t signed the resignation letter you submitted. Don’t forget, I’m the largest shareholder of the company, without my signature, you’re still the general manager of Xia Group."

"What do you mean? Do you want to force Bingbing to work for you?" Lin Hongzhuang said angrily.

Shen Zhengwen hurriedly said, "Please don’t misunderstand, I come with complete sincerity. I know that Ms. Xia hasn’t been happy in her role. Therefore, today I express my position: I will not directly participate in management, all management rights will be given to Ms. Xia."

"Also, Ms. Xia wanted to buy land for building housing to find a way out for the company right? I fully support it, and if there’s no money, I’ll find a way. Ms. Xia, you just need to go forth with the plans without worrying about anything else."

Everyone was stunned.

"Chairman Shen, buying land to develop housing seems too risky, shouldn’t we hold a shareholders’ meeting to discuss it?" Xia Yujiang frowned and asked.

Shen Zhengwen smiled, "I am the largest shareholder of the company, and I have decision-making power over major matters. This is decided."

"If Chairman Xia is worried about losing money, don’t worry, I can buy the shares in your hands at a price much higher than the market value. Moreover, if shareholder Xia Yuhai is also interested in selling his stake, I would gladly purchase it."
