Chapter 430: A pleasant visit

Few days passed by in the blink of an eye. Mr. Long officially took the CEO position of Liu Corps. It was a joyous event for him and the three board of directors – Mr.Su, Mr. Tan and Mr. Chao, whereas all the employees had mixed reactions.

They knew Liu Jinhai’s reputation had taken a hit, and it was all for the well-being of the company that the BoD took this decision. Yet, they were uncomfortable with the sudden change in their boss.

Their views also widely varied regarding the incident. Some supported Nana while the others had changed their perception when Jinhai slammed the media reporters and the rest of them held their views that Jinhai was indeed wrong.

Nevertheless, a change in the CEO itself was a huge thing.

Mr. Long gave a short speech that said he would try his best to fill in his shoes until Jinhai returned. The company would maintain its prosperity and prestige and promised that not a single employee would be affected by the stock crash Liu Corps was facing.

Inside the CEO’s office.

Mr. Long, along with the directors, clinked their glasses, laughing aloud.

“Congratulations. We have finally overthrown Liu Jinhai.”

Mr. Su poured some more whisky. “Well, what can I say? Now, the entire Liu Corps is under our control.”

Mr. Tan smirked. “This day I was waiting for have been finally realized. Now I can bring my son to work here, who was all always rejected after the interview. How dare Liu Jinhai? I am one of the esteemed board of directors. Why does my son need to go through any process?”

Mr. Chao shrugged. “Heh. You are already playing your card. But be careful. That dog of Liu Jinhai – Xin is still here.”

Mr. Su narrowed his eyes and smiled. “Yes, that Xin…we have to do something about him too. Until he is here and watches over us, we will not freely control this company. We have to discreetly kick him out of Liu Corps too. But not now. It will be suspicious.”

They nodded in agreement.

“We will slowly create such situations that will trap him. And once he takes bait like a rat, Xin is out.”

Mr. Su looked at Mr. Long and said, “You just do as we say, and you will be fine and loaded with lots of money. All the projects and decisions must go through us.”

Mr. Long nodded. “As you say.”

On the other side, Pei Yuan was enjoying his win. Today, Mr. Long had officially taken the CEO post, which would be a nightmare and akin to slow poison to Liu Corps while a biggest victory for him and Moon Corps.

He was reading some documents about a deal that pertained to an influential client in the UK. He had already bagged many deals from Liu Corps, but if he snatched this deal away, Liu Corps reputation would take a further downfall. It might lose even its existing engagements because of the back to back losses.

Plus, he kept feeding the media lots of cash to keep bringing up that videotape and destroy Jinhai’s reputation beyond repair. Even women activists came forward, demanding justice for Suyin.

Pei Yuan laughed out. “You cannot come out of this shit, Liu Jinhai. Hahaha. I wonder how long you would be able to take it. I have snatched your reputation, your company, and next is…” his gaze turned loving, “my Nana.”

The same days at Liu villa, too, were quiet but peaceful. Even if there was a huge uproar outside, nobody mentioned it, especially Liu Hai and Jinhai.

Liu Chunhua and Grandma Liu were worried and concerned, but Liu Hai would simply smile and brush them off.

In her room, as Nana read the hateful articles and news about Jinhai on the tablet, her heart ached for him to see him go through this. How can one not be affected by all the insults hurled like that?

Actually, to tone down the situation, Nana had a simple solution, which was for Jinhai to apologize for his actions.

Indeed, Nana was saddened to see everybody hating her husband, but at the same time, she knew that Jinhai wouldn’t have to face this backlash if he wasn’t that cruel to Suyin. After the conversation they had that day when Jinhai was hurt, he didn’t say much.

Nana sighed.

If Jinhai would just apologize…

She pursed her lips. The maid knocked on the door and said, “Lady Liu.”

She raised her head. “Yes?”

“Miss Xiang is here to see you.”

Nana was surprised. Huian?

“Of course, send her in.”

A minute later, Huian smiled as she greeted Nana. “Hey.”

“Huian! How are you? It’s been quite long.” She hugged her with a bright grin.

Huian smiled. “It has been indeed. How are you? And how are Jian and Nian?” She looked around. “They aren’t here?”

Nana slightly stiffened. “Ah, no. They are with Mom and Dad. I-I am a little sick, so they are with them for a few days.”

“Oh. Are you alright?” she looked concerned.

Nana nodded. “A little better…” she diverted her gaze. “Anyway! What brought you here?”

Huian seemed grim. “I just came to check on you. I still cannot believe that there will come a day when the mighty Liu Jinhai would have to face all this.”

Nana sighed. “I know. I asked him to apologize but-“

Huian widened her eyes. “Apologize and him? I don’t think he is still remorseful…”

“That is the problem.”

“Actually, Dad wanted to help Liu Corps in this situation, but I heard that Uncle Liu declined. He doesn’t want Xiang Corps to get involved in this mess and suffer a backlash too. Dad said that he it didn’t matter to him. Our families have been friends for so long, but Uncle Liu was stubborn,” she shook her y.

“Uncle Xiang offered help?” Nana was surprised. “I thought he hates Jinhai…”

Huian smiled. “He used to. He was furious at him after the banquet, but I talked to him after that. I said that I was already past whatever happened, and I had brought it on myself with what I did. It took a while, but Dad had to budge before me,” she cheekily grinned.

Nana held her hand. “I cannot thank you enough…”

Huian dismissed it. “Don’t mention it.” Then she seemed a little nervous. “By the way, Liang Shin must have come to check on you, right?”

“Ah, yes. A few days back. Big brother gave some medicines too.”

“I see, I see…H-How was he?”

Nana blinked her eyes in confusion. “Hm?”

Huian quickly said, “I mean, did he look or behave anything…differently?”
