Chapter 325 - I have to use you this once

"Not to mention, she is very late for such an important meeting. Does she think this is a runway?"

Lu Aotian made the middle aged man pause his complaints, sent a message to Lu Shaoting then continued listening to him expressionlessly.

When the man was done, he looked at him. "I think I have some internal matters to handle. For my subordinates to disrespect their boss like this…" his expression was now stern.

"President, I don't dare to disrespect you. I was only pointing out some things about Mrs. Lu." The man had obviously noticed that Lu Aotian was no longer in the mood to smile and joke around. He really wanted to bite his tongue off. Had he offended the president? Was he going to be kicked out of the company?

He couldn't help but shiver when he recalled that some people had been forced to sell him their shares and leave the company when they offended him. With his immense wealth, it wasn't hard for Lu Aotian to buy over his mere 5% of shares.

At that moment, Wan Jia arrived. "I'm so sorry I'm late." She bowed respectfully to all the shareholders in apology.

No one uttered a word but they were disdainful. They were still not accustomed to her presence. So she was really attending this meeting. She had made them wait for five whole minutes! Even the President and Vice President had never been late for a single meeting. Who did she think she was?

Wan Jia pretended not to notice their piercing glares and sat beside Lu Aotian. 

A certain shareholder who didn't like her couldn't keep it in anymore. "Miss Wan Jia, that is the seat of the Vice President."

Lu Aotian shot him a look. "My wife should naturally sit next to me. Do you have any problem with that?"

The man only secretly gritted his teeth and didn't say any other word.

Lu Aotian had something else to say. "You ought to respect your lady boss. Let this be the last time you dare to utter such words of disrespect about her."

The man swallowed his anger. "Yes president. Pardon my impulsiveness."

Lu Aotian was intending to kick him out but he let him stay to watch Wan Jia handle the company matters like a professional business lady. He would punish him later.

True enough, Wan Jia did not disappoint him. All his teachings were not for nothing. In that meeting, it was as though she had been possessed by a god of business. What would they expect? The nation's god of business was her mentor.

Within just an hour, their impression of her changed. 

The middle aged shareholder who insulted her before didn't need Lu Aotian to remind him. He apologized to Wan Jia on his own accord. "Lady Boss, I'm sorry for doubting your abilities and calling you useless. You are the President's choice. How could you be just a pretty face? You have truly opened my eyes today."

Wan Jia didn't wish to drag the matter unnecessarily. "That's okay. You had never seen my abilities before. However, disrespect shall not be tolerated again."

"Thank you lady boss." He felt a heavy weight off his shoulders.

All this while, Lu Aotian was looking at them calmly. To be exact, he was looking at that man calmly.

He finally spoke. "You are all wondering why my wife is here today, right?" he placed a document on his desk. Everyone saw the words on the top page clearly. They were even in capital.

SHARE TRANSFER AGREEMENT.

They were all shocked.

What did they just see?

President Lu was transferring his shares?

The bigger shock was yet to come.

He was giving 10% of his hard-earned shares to Wan Jia. Wan Jia was shocked too. What was this?

"She is now a major share holder and deserves to be in such meetings. Does anyone have anything else to say?"

Everyone was speechless. What were they supposed to say? With 10% of Lu Enterprises' shares, Wan Jia was guaranteed a lifetime of luxury even if they divorced. No matter how extravagant she was, she wouldn't be able to use up even half of it. Did Lu Aotian really dote on her that much?

"In future, my wife will attend some of the shareholders' meetings on my behalf." He saw that a certain middle aged man fidgeted. To be exact, it was the man who had just apologized after insulting Wan Jia. Lu Aotian didn't need to search anymore. He now knew the mole. "Master Li, do you have something to say?"

The man shook his head. "N-Nothing. President Lu really loves the Lady boss." 

…

After the meeting, Wan Jia hooked her hand around Lu Aotian's as they walked along the corridor together. She finally had the chance to ask. "Aotian, how could you give me so many shares? I don't deserve it. You have already done so much for me."

"Aren't you my wife? All my hard work is for you and our family. What's the big deal in giving you this tiny fraction?"  

It's a huge deal, okay? Who gives people their company's shares just like that? Not to mention we are husband and wife. Did you really have to?

Lu Aotian glanced at his wife and knew what she was thinking. For a moment, he felt guilty.

I'm sorry my love. To complete my plan, I have to use you just this once.
