The Scheming Billionaire's Heartfelt Devotion-Chapter 815 - 830: I Have to Admit, This Woman Truly Has Means

"Mom, can you please stop? Uncle Gu has already given us five percent of the shares, that’s more than enough."

Although Gu Hanjun changed her last name, she always refers to Uncle Gu Haoyuan as ’uncle.’

Lin Yi let out a cold laugh, her lips coated in lipstick slightly parting: "I stayed by his side for over ten years, worked for the company tirelessly, and why should I only get five percent? Since the moment he started drafting his will, our relationship meant nothing."

"Mom, don’t let money ruin your relationship with Uncle Gu, there’s really no need for that, besides, our life is already very good."

Behind the sunglasses, Lin Yi’s eyes harbored resentment and unwillingness. She had already started to acquire scattered shares of the company, intending to have a certain voice in the board.

"Stay out of grown-up matters, and make sure not to let your Uncle Gu know we are aware of the will."

Gu Hanjun really couldn’t understand why Lin Yi insisted on the struggle; their current life was what many people dream of, they should be content. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"Did you hear me?"

Seeing Gu Hanjun not responding for a while, Lin Yi asked again.

Gu Hanjun turned her head to look out the window, then replied: "I know."

.......

Lin Yi clandestinely meeting shareholders had already been noticed by Zhang Kai, Gu Nanxi’s good friend. He had been sending people to follow her in the past few days; it had to be said this woman certainly had some tricks, having now acquired nearly twenty percent of the company’s scattered shares.

Zhang Kai also made moves by visiting other shareholders in the company, but failed to persuade them to sell their shares to him.

With no other choice, he had to call Gu Nanxi, if this woman continued her acquisition, though it wouldn’t threaten Gu Nanxi’s position in the board, it would still have some impact.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Nanxi bent over the desk and took a cigarette, tilted his head to light it, the light smoke shrouding his dark eyes with indistinct arcs.

The office door was suddenly knocked, Gu Nanxi flicked the cigarette ash in the ashtray and casually responded "Come in."

Assistant Cai walked in with documents: "President Gu, this document needs your signature, and half an hour later there’s a high-level meeting to attend."

Gu Nanxi glanced at the document, took the pen from the desk, and signed his name: "Cancel the meeting then, and help me book the earliest flight to the UK."

"Alright, President Gu, I’ll handle it right away." Assistant Cai took the signed document and left the office.

After the door was closed, Gu Nanxi dialed Zhong Li’s number, tapping his cigarette-holding hand lightly on the desk, the scarlet ember brightening and dimming at his fingertips.

Zhong Li carried coffee freshly made in the break room into the office, hearing the phone ring, hurriedly walked over to press the answer key.

"Why are you calling at this time?"

"I have to leave for a business trip suddenly, might be leaving in a bit."

Hearing Gu Nanxi say this, Zhong Li suddenly felt a bit reluctant for him to leave, she seemed to have gotten used to the days with him around: "When will you be back?"

"You don’t want me to go?"

Gu Nanxi caught Zhong Li’s disappointment, smiled and extinguished the cigarette butt in the ashtray: "How about you come with me?"

Zhong Li wasn’t some twenty-something girl anymore, she couldn’t just abandon work and accompany him on a business trip.

"Forget it, I have so much work over here, do you want me to help you pack your luggage at home?"
