Becoming The Business Magnate’s Spoiled Wife

Chapter 41 Profit-Driven

In the meeting room, the shareholders and department managers maintained their silence towards the internal conflict within the Qu family.

Qu Xiao curled her red lips, her eyes flashing with a calm and leisurely brilliance.

Her fingertips fiddled with a pen, and she occasionally raised her eyes to glance at Mr. Qu.

Mr. Qu’s eyes were bloodshot. He was trembling with anger, but he could not flare up. He fought against his emotions and tried to persuade her, “Xiaoxiao, I know you have a grudge against us, but all the employees and shareholders are counting on our company doing well. It’s not a place for you to mess around!”

“There are many things to do in the company. You can keep your shares, but let me manage the CEO position for you, okay?”

“When you are ready personally manage the company, I will definitely give you back the position!”

Mr. Qu said very kindly, but Qu Xiao could not help but laugh as she rubbed her ears. “Do I look like a three-year-old child?”

“Making use of our family ties to manipulate me, acting as if you are doing me a favor by being the CEO. I know you’re planning to take advantage of the CEO position to collude with other shareholders to dilute my shares so you can once again gain full control of Qu Group and kick me out of the company.” “Your plan is a little too old-fashioned. You’ll need more innovative ideas to deal with me!”

Qu Xiao’s eyebrows were slightly furrowed as she held onto the conference table. Her eyes were sharp as she stared at Mr. Qu as she spoke word by word, “I’m a healthy adult and I meet the standards of an independent managing a company. Moreover, I know more about business than you think.”

This sentence made the expressions of the shareholders waver.

The hyenas who put profit first naturally understood what the existence of Shang Yan meant.

Qu Xiao took the opportunity to add, “Of course, there will be benefits for shareholders and managers who have chosen to support me. I can provide a written commitment that the dividends for shareholders at the end of the year will increase by 5% compared to previous years, and the departmental KPI will meet the company’s requirements to provide a six-figure bonus!”

The shareholders began to whisper among themselves when they heard her promise. There were still a few who remained doubtful.

Shang Yan broke the silence and said in a cold voice, “At the end of the year, if Qu Group’s profits do not meet the standards that Qu Xiao promised, Shang Group will carry out today’s promise on her behalf. Does anyone have any questions?”

Qu Xiao looked back in surprise, her heart surging with emotion.

The shareholders were so happy that their jaws dropped. They immediately expressed their willingness to support Qu Xiao and follow her lead.

Qu Xiao leaned against the Mr. Qu in the corner, who had no sense of presence at all. The corners of Qu Xiao’s lips curled up slightly as she nodded her head, angering Mr. Qu to the point that he pressed against his heart and nearly fainted.

Thanks to Mr. Qu, she learned that she could easily gain the loyalty of people through offering benefits.

After the inauguration ceremony, Qu Xiao informed the logistics department to move all of Mr. Qu’s things out of the office. Seeing that it was getting late, she naturally left the company with Shang Yan without bothering to look at Mr. Qu’s face that was filled with hatred and malevolence.

In the dark-colored car, Qu Xiao waved her arms excitedly, swaying rhythmically to the music. She was in an extremely good mood.

Shang Yan looked at her excited appearance, and his thin lips curled up, showing a hint of indulgence.

In the bedroom of the villa, Shang Yan leaned against the headboard of the bed and read a book. Qu Xiao stepped on the thin blanket barefooted. She bent her knees in front of the wine cabinet with a serious look on her face. She ran to the bedside with a bottle of red wine in her hands and boldly took away the book in his hand.

She stuffed a wine glass into his palm and said, “We’ve finally succeeded in our goal to take over Qu Group. Let’s celebrate!”

Qu Xiao raised her head and took a gulp. Red wine flowed from the corner of her mouth to her collarbone. Seeing that made Shang Yan’s throat tighten.

“You… want to drink some whiskey?”

From the corner of her eye, Qu Xiao saw that Shang Yan had yet to drink, so she asked in a somewhat curious manner.

Her red lips were slightly parted, and her clear eyes were now covered with a hint of drunkenness. There was an indescribable flirtatiousness and coquettishness.

Shang Yan’s heart twitched slightly. He placed the wine glass on the bedside cabinet and tugged at her elbow wrist with some force.

Qu Xiao’s body fell unsteadily on his chest. Her soft breasts and small palm pressed tightly against his abdominal muscles. Her slight twisting and rubbing caused Shang Yan’s breathing to become increasingly rapid.

“Let’s celebrate in another way…”

Shang Yan said in a hoarse voice. His large hand hooked the back of Qu Xiao’s head. He lost all control staring into her pair of blank eyes. He sighed and leaned over to kiss her lips that carried the fragrance of wine, the tip of his tongue agilely invaded and pried open her mouth, kissing away all the remaining wine in her mouth.
