Zhou Bao gave Zhu Xiangxiang a disdainful look, just a mere fake, but really acting like she was the young lady of the Zhus. Her tone towards her cousin was so impolite, it sounded like pure green tea bitterness.
Moreover, bringing it up when everyone was happy, it always felt like it was intentional.
Could she be plotting another bad move?
Ming Jing glanced indifferently at Zhu Xiangxiang. Zhu Xiangxiang’s heart skipped a beat. No one could escape Ming Jing’s gaze unscathed; Zhu Xiangxiang practically fled in panic.
“There will be opportunities in the future. ” Ming Jing said. Lin Qing looked at Zhu Xiangxiang unhappily, “Alright, let’s eat.”
Zhu Xiangxiang obediently lowered her head and ate quietly.
By the time Zhu Wenjie saw the news of Ming Jing becoming the chairman, it was already in the afternoon and everyone was resting after lunch.
Zhu Wenjie took her cellphone and rushed to Granny Zhu’s room: “Mom, big news! Look at the news! Ming Jing is now the chairman of the Zhu Group? This was even announced on the official public account of the group. Am I seeing things?”
Granny Zhu was disturbed from her sleep and became irritable: “Is there a problem?”
Zhu Wenjie cried out: “Of course there’s a problem! A huge one! That little girl, how could she manage the company? Doesn’t she know her own abilities? It’s killing me!”
Her husband, Zhou Ping, had only been able to hold a deputy manager position in the company for years and couldn’t even enter the boardroom. Ming Jing, a girl who had just returned to the Zhus three months ago, why did she deserve
The more Zhu Wenjie thought about it, the more unwilling she was. Could it be Lin Qing’s doing? Using her daughter as a shield?
Well, this woman wanted to take advantage of her big brother’s absence to swallow the company.
Granny Zhu glanced at her: “Use your pig brain to think about it, what’s the first requirement to enter the boardroom?”
“Shares?”
Zhu Wenjie became more confused: “But weren’t sister-in-law’s shares taken by big brother? Mom, did you give her your shares? I am your own daughter, how can you be so partial?” As Zhu Wenjie spoke, she became more anxious.
Granny Zhu picked up the tape recorder beside her and threw it at her: “Do you even have a brain? My shares are nothing more than a drop in the bucket.”
“Then what’s the deal?” Zhu Wenjie dodged the thrown object while continuing to ask.
“Do you think you can understand if I tell you with your pig brain? Stop asking, hurry back home. You give me a headache whenever I see you.”
“But Ming Jing…”
“But what? Are you more capable than the seasoned veterans of the company?
They don’t have a problem with it, so what are you blabbering about?” “Ming Jing is a girl…”
“So what if she’s a girl? Are girls supposed to be questioned? You’re also a woman, so why are you so ignorant? I don’t want to talk to you, get out of here now.” Granny Zhu lost her patience. “Madam Zhou, come and kick her out for me. Ah, my head hurts.”
Zhu Wenjie snorted: “It must be sister-in-law’s doing. She wants to swallow the company, such deep scheming. I’m going to confront her right now.” Granny Zhu shouted: “You stay right there!”
“You mean to tell me you didn’t listen to a single word I said? If you go find your sister-in-law, starting today, Zhou Ping will be kicked out of the Zhu Group, and you won’t be able to set foot in the Zhu family home again. I don’t have a daughter like you.”
“Mom.” Zhu Wenjie stomped her foot angrily: “I’m your real daughter. How can you be so partial?”
“I don’t have a daughter as stupid as you. How muddled is your head? You have no real skills, all you do is yell and meddle. Does the Zhu family have anything to do with you? Just mind your daughter, your husband, and yourself, no one needs your pointless worrying. You jump up and down like a monkey every day.”
Zhu Wenjie sobbed: “For so many years, Zhou Ping has been diligent in the Zhu Group. Even if there’s no merit, there has to be some hard work, right? Yet he’s just a deputy manager now. As for Ming Jing, she’s only been back for three months. Does she even have the face to be the chairman?”
“If Zhou Ping can’t advance, it’s due to his own incompetence. Who can he blame? Ming Jing can become the chairman because of her own abilities. Since the board members all agree, are you more capable than those old CEOs on the board of directors?”
Zhu Wenjie was speechless.
“You’re just narrow-minded and can’t stand it when others do better than you. But if you’re counting on your big brother, I advise you to give up on that. I, as his own mother, can’t count on him, let alone you. On the contrary, Ming Jing is a smart and kind girl. She repays malice with kindness. What about gratitude? You should reflect on that..”
