Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 359: Lin Yue Gives Pei Li a Title

[Yuanxue] Group was initially established as an equity distribution among three parties.

Liu Yuan and Jiang Xue held the largest shares in the company, followed by two venture capital firms, and then by individual shareholders.

The company’s CEO, after completing her two-year term last month, was rewarded with 1% of the shares as an incentive.

However, her greediness was somewhat distasteful.

Lin Yue never meddled in other people’s business, and upon her return, she didn’t keep her two best friends waiting, knowing they had issues that needed to be personally addressed at the group.

Over the past two years, Liu Yuan and Jiang Xue had actually placed a lot of trust in the CEO they had personally hired, so they really didn’t interfere much with company matters.

But that doesn’t mean you can ignore the two major shareholders!

This significant issue had occurred over a month ago, and you hadn’t even reported it.

CEO Zhao Nan had just finished a meeting when her secretary hurriedly followed her, whispering, "Director Liu and Miss Jiang are here, waiting in your office."

Zhao Nan nodded and quickly headed to her office.

Inside, Liu Yuan and Jiang Xue were casually looking over the financial director’s company financial report with their legs crossed.

The secretary, having prepared the coffee, stood by, hardly daring to breathe.

As Zhao Nan entered, she quickly offered a smile, "Director Liu, Miss Jiang, good day."

Jiang Xue lifted her eyelids, gave Zhao Nan a glance, and said sarcastically, "CEO Zhao, do you think the salary and dividends the company pays you are too little?"

"Not at all," Zhao Nan was taken aback and chuckled, "Miss Jiang, you wouldn’t have heard about other companies trying to poach me, would you? Rest assured, no matter who invites me, I would never leave the company. Without both of your guidance, there wouldn’t be a Zhao Nan today."

These words made Liu Yuan and Jiang Xue feel even more sarcastic.

Zhao Nan was actually someone they met at a business dinner, and occasionally during meals, they would listen to her passionate speeches and jokes.

So when they started the company, they gave her a chance.

It must be said that she is capable, but not smart enough!

Liu Yuan closed the financial report, casually threw it onto the coffee table, and gestured for people from other departments to leave.

After only their secretaries were left, Liu Yuan jokingly spoke to her own secretary, "Wang has been neglecting something recently, so I docked half a year’s salary." 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Zhao Nan smiled awkwardly, comforting Wang’s secretary, "It’s good for young people to gain more experience."

Lowering her head, Wang couldn’t help but lift her eyes to glance at Zhao Nan.

Mentally cursing: Isn’t it all because of you? Would I have been negligent and docked pay otherwise?

It wasn’t just her; Jiang Xue’s secretary also had her pay docked for not reporting the incident.

But neither dared to quit over the docking of their pay.

They wouldn’t dare!

Having seen the network of the two directors, they knew that following these bosses was their ticket to soaring high.

So this docking of pay was nothing.

Jiang Xue suddenly asked Zhao Nan, "Shouldn’t you report to us about the company’s matters?"

"The company has been doing quite well recently," Zhao Nan smiled, "I’ve already reported the issues with O’laya to Meiyue Group for sanctions, and they can no longer develop or manufacture our products."

Jiang Xue, "And?"

Zhao Nan pondered for a moment, "That’s all, the two directors have also seen the financial report just now, it has recovered since the piracy issue last month."

Jiang Xue and Liu Yuan looked at each other.

Very disappointed.

If Zhao Nan had been honest, they would have merely docked pay like they did with the secretaries, they had hinted clearly enough and had given her a chance.

Liu Yuan, "Guess why I docked Wang’s salary?"

Zhao Nan shook her head blankly, curious, she looked at Wang, "What did you do?"

Wang opened her briefcase, took out a laptop, and a voice recorder.

The laptop displayed emails sent by Zhao Nan from her personal email to Sovas regarding acquisition matters.

The recording pen played back her threatening phone call to Sovas.

Zhao Nan’s face changed dramatically in an instant.

She lost her earlier composure and stood up to bow to the two people, "Director Liu, Miss Jiang, I neglected to report this matter to both of you, I have been too busy!"

Liu Yuan sneered, "You’re so busy that even your secretary forgot to report to us? Is she incompetent, or did she simply not know about the things you’ve been doing behind our backs?"

Zhao Nan broke into a cold sweat, her voice becoming panicked and choked, "Director Liu, Miss Jiang, I was just thinking of finishing this task and then reporting it to you two as a surprise."

"You like surprises, huh?" Jiang Xue sneered, "Well then, I formally notify you that you can pack your things and leave."

"No, please!" Zhao Nan’s eyes turned blood red, and she knelt down to plead, "Miss Jiang, give me another chance, I won’t dare again, there won’t be a second time!"

Liu Yuan looked at her and said, "Do you know why I dismissed the other company staff? Give yourself a dignified way out."

Zhao Nan shivered.

Smart as she was, she understood the meaning of those words.

It was one of the few remaining chances she had.

If people from other departments were present today and knew that Zhao Nan was being expelled, it would spread throughout the industry, and other companies would not dare to hire her.

So, this was the last bit of leeway the two executives were giving her.

"Then... my shares."

Wang added insult to injury, "The shares require you to have worked in the company for five years before you can cash out, now these shares can only be seized!"

Zhao Nan nearly passed out.

It was only a 1% stake, but now Yuanxue is worth over three hundred billion US dollars, meaning that stake is worth 3 billion US dollars!

Converted to RMB, that’s over ten billion!

Jiang Xue sighed, "In these two years, using the company’s platform, you’ve also expanded your network considerably. Even if you can’t compete in other large companies, with your connections, you can start a small-scale business on your own, that should suffice. Let’s part on good terms."

With that, Jiang Xue and Liu Yuan stood up, not giving Zhao Nan any more chances and left.

That day, the board of directors initiated a notice that shocked everyone in the company, alleging Zhao Nan’s resignation due to health issues.

"Wow, so I was just paving the way for Zhao Nan to benefit all along? She wants to set up her own shop."

At Lin Yue’s house, while playing mahjong with Ye Shuting who heard about the incident, she clicked her tongue in amazement, "Miss Jiang, nicely done, so satisfying; that’s how you deal with such a backstabber!"

Before she could finish, Lin Yue glared at her, "Why didn’t you report this to me?"

Ye Shuting gave a sheepish smile, "Sister-in-law, this isn’t such a big deal, as the Director of Market Supervision, it’s within my capacity to deal with such matters without bothering you."

Lin Yue: "Then why did you involve Pei Li?"

"Hehe," Ye Shuting gave a guilty smile.

As Pei Li, who happened to be passing by with fruit, prepared to go busy herself with other things, Lin Yue called out to her, "Pei Li!"

Pei Li’s heart skipped a beat, and she walked over with a bitter smile, "Big sister?"

But Lin Yue said, "Find a time to go with Little Yu to get the certificate picked up. The wedding can be simple; just have a meal at home with the relatives."

Pei Li was startled and then overjoyed. Her eyes instantly reddened, moved to tears.

She had been busy helping with the Lin Family’s affairs for years, and as Lin Yu started climbing up the ladder in the government, rising rapidly, her sense of security diminished. Lin Yu’s father, Lin Langsheng, told Lin Yu that it wasn’t suitable for him to marry a businesswoman like her at the moment, fearing it would attract too much attention and be improper.

Thus, they had been dragging their feet.

Pei Li feared that in the end, she would just be a passerby.

Now, unexpectedly, Lin Yue had given her a surprise.

Seeing that Pei Li did not respond, Lin Yue looked up and teased her, "What’s the matter? Have you set your sights too high to settle for Lin Yu?"

"Not at all," Pei Li wiped her tears and chided, "How could I possibly look down on him? He’s going to be the City Leader of Shanzhong City one day; I’m afraid he might look down on me, a woman with the stench of copper."

"He wouldn’t dare!" Lin Yue huffed lightly, "That settles it then. I’ll take care of it with the uncle, and we’ll find a time to finalize everything. A simple wedding, any objections?"

Pei Li nodded eagerly, "Not doing it would be fine by me, just getting registered is enough. I’ll follow your lead, big sister."

All she wanted was a status!
