Chapter 296 Giving Up the Position of President of Shengshi
“I bought this set of wedding rings at the Han’s Jewelry store in the commercial center a couple of days ago. I fell in love with it at first sight. The sales assistant told me that my mother designed the set herself and that it is called ‘Love’.”
Han Xi's eyes flickered, but he remained silent.
"You are in me, and I am in you. Together we are one, and apart we can be independent."
Fang Li smiled and looked at the matching rings inside, saying with satisfaction, "I had a fight with Yu Wei in the street over these rings, and I almost got arrested by the police for causing trouble."
"By the way, you should know this too! It was the day you sent Secretary Liao to deliver the equity transfer agreement. Although I could have handled it myself, your agreement still helped me a lot!"
"You didn't see it? Those sycophantic employees at Han's Jewelry, and Yu Wei and her two friends, turned completely pale when they saw that equity transfer agreement."
Fang Li spoke lightly, completely unaware of the turbulent emotions that had been surging in the man's eyes since he saw the ring.
"Han Xi, we got our marriage certificate in such a rush back then, and you still prepared a ring for me, but I've never given you anything. Consider these rings my wedding gift to you and me. Do you like them?"
Meeting the woman's hopeful gaze, Han Xi's dark pupils finally moved.
A hint of emotion, never before seen on his handsome face, suddenly appeared as he reached out and pulled Fang Li forcefully into his arms: "I like her."
Fang Li was initially startled by his sudden reaction, but when she heard him say "I like you" in a serious tone, she couldn't help but smile and put her arms around his waist.
"If you like it, then it's worth it. I spent all the money I had invested in Liyun's future investments."
Hearing Fang Li mutter softly, Han Xi released her and frowned: "What did you say?"
Fang Li smiled and said, "It's nothing, as long as you like it."
Han Xi raised an eyebrow, seemingly not having heard what she was saying and believing her words.
He took the women's diamond ring out of the box, held her hand, and carefully slipped it onto her finger. He then lowered his head and gently kissed her before looking at it with satisfaction.
"nice."
Fang Li realized that she was very easy to laugh at today.
No matter what the man does or says, she can't help but smile.
Seeing her holding up her hand and admiring the ring on her finger with satisfaction, Han Xi took out the men's ring as well and handed it to Fang Li: "Put this on for me."
Fang Li paused slightly, glanced at him, and with a smile, took the ring and slipped it onto his slender ring finger.
The rings were put on, and the two clasped hands.
Looking at the matching rings on their fingers, Han Xi smiled with satisfaction.
"Ah Li, thank you."
Fang Li was puzzled.
She saw a glint of light in the man's eyes as he looked at her, and the corners of his thin lips couldn't help but turn up in a smile.
late at night.
The online buzz remains high, and Han Ming and the Sheng family father and daughter have yet to respond. The media and netizens are gradually losing patience and have begun to make various speculations online.
In particular, Sheng Qianrui was injured on the face and was taken to the hospital shortly after.
Instantly, a message about Sheng Qianrui committing suicide because she couldn't bear the humiliation of having her lies exposed spread like wildfire online.
The rumors intensified, and by late at night, almost all the media outside the H Hotel had left, and they all flocked to the hospital where Sheng Qianrui was receiving treatment.
What no one knew was that Sheng Qianrui had already secretly left through the back door of the hospital and returned to the Sheng family.
The Sheng family lives in a villa area near the Third Ring Road.
It is next to a well-known landscaped garden and the city’s largest golf course.
Therefore, the villas here have always been sought after by wealthy people in Beijing.
The Sheng family bought their property early and secured the best location in the entire villa area, at the very back of the area, nestled between the golf course and the landscaped gardens.
The scenery is pleasant and offers a wide view.
However, this beautiful villa was shrouded in gloom, and the faces of everyone inside were darker than the night sky.
"Tell me, what should we do now?"
Several influential directors of Shengshi Group were gathered here at this moment. One of them, who looked older, spoke in a rude tone.
"Our Shengshi was already on a downward spiral, and it had finally started to improve in the last two years, but now it has been brought back to square one!"
"Qianrui, all these years you've always said that we uncles and elders don't support you and don't trust you enough as general manager. Now, we trust you and have entrusted Shengshi Group to you, and this is how you repay us?!"
"The relationship between the Han family and our Shengshi Group has been precarious for the past few years. This time, you actually did something like this. Who in the Beijing business community doesn't know what kind of person Han Xi is? You schemed against him? Aren't you pushing Shengshi Group to its death?"
"Exactly! Such a fine young woman, at this age, why doesn't she find a suitable family to marry into? I really don't understand why she's so focused on getting involved in the Huo Group's affairs!"
"It wouldn't be so bad if the group's interests were always put first, but this is... utterly ridiculous! The president of my Shengshi Group actually has the audacity to commit marriage fraud? I think our Shengshi Group should just declare bankruptcy and give up its foothold in Beijing!"
"What a shame!"
.......
The board members chattered amongst themselves, while Sheng Shi and his daughter sat silently on the sofa opposite them.
Sheng Jinghui is, after all, the chairman of the group. It's true that he and his daughter messed things up, so it's understandable that the board members are angry and complain.
But Sheng Qianrui thought differently.
She clenched her hands tightly, her eyes filled with surging hatred.
Xu Fangli!
Han Xi!
It's you all, it's all of you!
This has made her a laughing stock in Beijing, and now she is being collectively criticized and insulted by these fat, complacent old fogies who only know how to reap the benefits!
"Shengshi Group's stock has been falling for two days in a row. With this incident today, it will probably fall even more tomorrow. If this continues, we may not even be able to support the Taihu Bay project."
"I didn't know that, but the results of the overseas bidding for that new energy project last year came out recently. Our Shengshi Group lost to X Investment Group. If news of that comes back at this time..."
The board members looked worried, and some even glared angrily at Sheng Qianrui.
"Now that things have come to this, there is only one way to temporarily salvage the image of Shengshi and the confidence of stock investors."
After someone said that, everyone in the living room fell silent.
Everyone knows what the solution is.
But at this moment, even Sheng Jinghui could not say anything more on behalf of his daughter.
Sheng Qianrui's bright red fingernails were almost embedded in the back of her hand. Her brows were tense as she slowly raised her head to look at the uncles and elders who had watched her grow up.
He sneered and said, "You want me to give up my position as president of Shengshi?"
