Jiang Xuecheng was not stunned to hear that Su Wan wanted to attend Sheng Yuan Groups general meeting of the shareholders.

After getting along with her for so long, he knew Su Wan was a person who seemed to be easygoing but was very stubborn within.

Jiang Xuecheng hugged Su Wan by her shoulders and breathed in the aromatic scent of her hair gently.

Su Wan had never liked putting on perfume like other aristocratic ladies. There was no strong fragrance all over her body. Only when one went very near her could one smell the scent of shampoo and bath soap.

I have something on tomorrow and I cant go with you but Id be worried if you were to go alone.

Jiang Xuecheng paused and he seemed to be thinking. Ill ask Ah Si to go with you. If theres anything urgent, you may call me.

Upon hearing this, Su Wan felt touched. This man always thought of her.

Xuecheng, I have something to ask you.

Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wans hesitance and instinctively replied, Yes?

Su Wan pursed her lips and her eyes were deep. How did you get the shares which were not my parents?

Jiang Xuecheng was taken aback. He had not expected Su Wan to ask this question but he regained his senses.

You dont have to bother about how I got them but you must remember youre now the biggest shareholder in Sheng Yuan Group.

Sensing his reluctance, Su Wan pursed her lips and finally swallowed her questions.

She knew that people loved money and power. It must have cost Jiang Xuecheng lots of money and material resources to get those shares.

She felt bitterness in her heart as she stood up and took the project paper for Beitongs celebration banquet, ready to leave.

Ill go down first, then.

Suddenly, Jiang Xuecheng held Su Wans hand. Su Wan turned around in surprise and saw Jiang Xuecheng staring at her.

Work has increased recently. Dont tire yourself out too much.

As he spoke, he lowered his head and placed a gentle kiss on Su Wans forehead before letting her go.

Su Wan smiled bashfully. She lowered her head and carried the project paper as she walked slowly toward the door. The moment she opened the door, she saw Ah Si, who was about to enter the office.

Hello, Young Madam.

Su Wan shot Ah Si a glance. As her face still felt warm, she hastily nodded and went into the elevator.

Ah Si watched with uncertainty as Su Wan left. Looking at her flushed cheeks, he was not sure what his young master had done again.

This was the office. Could he not show off his affections toward his wife openly? It was such a strong attack for those who were single!

***

The next morning, Su Wan wore a straight and plain black business suit without lace for the sake of Sheng Yuans shareholders general meeting.

She looked into the mirror as she gathered her hair into a bun. After looking at herself several times, Su Wan was satisfied with her current look.

As Jiang Xuecheng had arranged for Ah Si to follow Su Wan today, she saw Ah Si waiting for her at the entrance when she walked out of Fontainebleau. Beside him was a not quite impressive Volkswagen.

Good morning, have you waited long?

Su Wan smiled warmly at Ah Si. She knew Ah Si grew up with Jiang Xuecheng and both of them were close. Their relationship went beyond that of a superior and subordinate.

Good morning, Young Madam. Ah Si smiled as he touched the back of his head. Not very long actually, I arrived on the dot.

Su Wan nodded faintly and got up onto the back seat of the Volkswagen.

Both of them did not interact along the way and very quickly, they arrived at the headquarters of Sheng Yuan Group.

Su Wan got down from the car. She looked up at the tall building of Sheng Yuan Group. Complicated emotions surged up and could be seen from her eyes.

Grandfather, Im here. What would happen when you see me?

Ah Si stood behind Su Wan. He saw Su Wan clenching her fists and his sympathy arose for this young madam of his.

Back then, when Jiang Xuecheng wanted to investigate about Su Wan, it was he who did the investigation and data collection. Hence, Ah Si knew clearly about Su Wan.

She had lost her parents when she was in high school. Then, her fianc had been snatched by her cousin sister. Her relatives had even stabbed her in the back when it came to the ownership of shares. It wasnt easy for Su Wan to continue till now.

Ah Si reminded softly, Young Madam, its almost 8.30am. Should we go up?

Sheng Yuan Groups general meeting of the shareholders would begin at 8.30am.

Yes, lets go.

Su Wan looked down and loosened her clenched fist as her look restored its calmness.

Ah Si quickly nodded and followed, catching up to Su Wans pace.

***

In the top management meeting room of Sheng Yuans headquarters, the atmosphere seemed calm on the surface but there was hidden turbulence.

At one glance, all the seats had been filled in the entire meeting room. Only the seat to the right of Su Jiankai was empty. It was eye-catching.

This time around, besides the top management of Sheng Yuan group, those who attended the general meeting of shareholders were business owners who owned a relatively high proportion of shares.

Although the general meeting of shareholders had been scheduled to start at 8.30am, everyone was present at about eight in the morning. Hence, they were resentful towards the person who had not appeared yet.

A middle-aged man sitting on the left of Su Jiankai could wait no more. He stood up and asked, Mr. Su, its 8.30am now. Arent we starting the meeting?

Today, Su Jiankai was not in a good mood, or rather, he had not been in a good mood since Beitongs bidding.

Su Jiankai darted him a cold side glance and then at his watch. Its not time yet.

The middle-aged man had no choice but to sit down helplessly.

Su Yurou frowned. She knew why her father looked gloomy today. That empty seat belonged to Su Wan.

She was not sure if Su Wan would come personally. Huh, so what if she did come?

Su Wan would definitely not know that in the past, the general meeting of the shareholders had always started before time.

She had put on airs when she appeared. The shareholders impression toward her would definitely not be good.

At the thought of this, Su Yurou had an idea. She stood up slowly and looked around. On her face was a thoughtful smile.

Father, almost everyone is here. Could we start the general meeting now?

Su Yurou smiled but in her heart, she wanted to prevail over Su Wan from the very first encounter!

Su Jiankai was taken aback upon hearing this. After exchanging some glances, Su Jiankai understood instantly what his daughter meant.

Su Jiankai cleared his throat and there was a moment of silence.

He waved and announced loudly, In this case, we shall officially start the general meeting of shareholders now.

However, before his voice died down, the sound of the door opening filled the air and it stole everyones attention.

Everyone looked towards the door and what caught their sight was a man and a woman entering one after the other. The person who walked in first was the woman whose face was pretty but whose look was cold. She was wearing a straight business suit.

Seeing Su Wan, Su Yurou bit her lips. Immediately, frenzied jealousy rose in her heart.
