My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 867: Don’t Push Your Luck
"Hold on a second." Suddenly, Ye Lu’s voice, malicious and sly, rang out, "If I remember correctly, the shareholders here just announced that they have given up their dividends from Tian Kun, so now, half of Tian Kun’s dividends belong to the company, and half belong to me! Thank you all for the big present you’ve given me today."
Her smug tone instantly caused the faces of all the Jun Family shareholders present to change, anger twisting their old faces.
"Hold on a second." A shareholder with the most shares put on a chrysanthemum smile that was all friendly and charming, almost beaming at Ye Lu, "Hehe, Young Mistress, we were just joking earlier. Tian Kun is a very important enterprise under the Jun Family; as shareholders, how could we truly stand by and watch Tian Kun fail."
"Right, right, right, we’re all one family, how could we possibly stand by and do nothing? We were just angry at the moment and said those things."
The other shareholders, seeing the way the wind was blowing, were not willing to be left behind, after all, if Tian Kun got back on its feet, it would definitely be a juicy piece of meat, and they were not willing to lose out.
One by one, they smiled politely and admiringly, warmly surrounding Ye Lu.
"Young Mistress, don’t be angry, let’s talk things out nicely, shall we?"
"Oh dear, who was it just now who said I was merely an outsider, not yet married, not the Young Mistress Jun? Since I’m an outsider, how come we are one family now?" Ye Lu rolled her eyes, playing her part well!
As soon as that group of directors heard this, they immediately turned around, eyes fiercely glaring at Jun Shi, radiating thick resentment—it was all this person’s fault for being so harsh on Ye Lu just now, pushing her into a corner, leading them to suffer such heavy losses.
"..." Jun Shi was inexplicably glared at by the shareholders, exploding with anger inside. Was what he said wrong? He spoke nothing but the truth, and at the time, these shareholders had agreed with him.
Now that they were at a loss, they were blaming him, which was infuriating. They would definitely blame their losses on him in the future—detestable.
All because of Ye Lu, that wretched girl, who had actually managed to revive Tian Kun. Not only had he failed to bring her down, but she also ended up looking even more impressive.
The shareholder immediately said, "Even if the Young Mistress isn’t married yet, in all of our hearts, you are the Young Mistress. We have long regarded you as a member of the Jun Family."
"Sigh, but it still feels very uncomfortable. I’ve been working like a horse, toiling to death these past few days just to save Tian Kun. But people don’t treat me as one of their own; they even mock me as a ’kept woman.’" Ye Lu touched her chest with a sorrowful expression, "It feels so cold in here."
"What are you pretending for now?" Jun Shi said as soon as he saw her act, getting irritated.
"My dear nephew, that’s not the right attitude," the shareholders quickly patted Jun Shi on the shoulder. Now, Ye Lu was the big financial backer and holding Tian Kun’s future potential piece of the pie in her hands—how could they offend her?
"Young Mistress, please think of a solution!"
Ye Lu’s eyes spun slyly, "I’m not that petty. We can all make money together; I’m just giving our uncles some face. But my condition is that he has to apologize to me formally. Recently, he’s been targeting me relentlessly, causing me to lose face and feel very heartbroken." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
Upon hearing this, Jun Shi scoffed. To apologize to this woman? In his dreams.
He was an elder after all; where was it heard of for a father-in-law to apologize to his daughter-in-law? If word got out, wouldn’t it become a joke?
"What’s wrong with what I said? I suggest you don’t push your luck."
"Tsk tsk, look at this, it’s not that I don’t want to reconcile. Just look at this attitude. Ahh~~" Ye Lu looked at the shareholders, shrugged her shoulders, the embodiment of ’it’s not my problem—you only have him to blame.’
