Chapter 1158: Not the So-Called Mastermind
This banquet caused quite a stir, with seven or eight trending searches on the Internet.
For example, the change of ownership of the Hao family, the death of Hao Teng, and the murder of father and son, nine out of ten people on the street would be talking about it.
Hao Teng was not lucky. He suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and could not be saved. The doctor declared him dead on the way.
Before this, Qin Lie and Fu Nanzhou had already joined forces and collected enough evidence. Even if they hadn't killed each other, the Hao father and son would not have been able to escape.
Hao Mengyan still buried Hao Teng, not just to stop people from talking about him, so as not to be called cold-blooded and heartless. Selfishly, Hao Mengyan couldn't really abandon him. After all, he was her grandfather, no matter how cold-blooded and heartless she was, she couldn't be completely cruel.
Before leaving, Hao Mengyan came to say goodbye to Lu Xi and brought a folder. She handed it to Lu Xi and smiled softly, "Take a look."
Lu Xi was surprised and asked as she flipped the book open: "What is this..."
Seeing the words above, she frowned slightly, "Sister Yan, what do you mean?"
Hao Mengyan smiled lightly, "Just a little token of my appreciation."
"This is not that simple!" Lu Xi had a serious expression. She had thought about what Hao Mengyan might give her, but she had never expected it to be Hao's shares, and moreover...
Hao Mengyan lowered her eyes and said, "Just accept it. You could have destroyed the Hao family, but you didn't. So this is what you deserve."
Lu Xi still didn't move.
Hao Mengyan frowned and smiled bitterly, "Lu Xi, please don't make me feel bad, okay?"
Lu Xi was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled, "Okay, I'll take it. Only a fool would refuse wealth that comes to your doorstep. I'm greedy for money. After all, I have to raise my daughter in wealth. Who would dislike having too much money?"
As she spoke, she took the pen and ink pad and signed and put her fingerprints on it without hesitation.
Hao Mengyan gave 20% of the shares. Now Hao Mengyan holds the power in the Hao family. Including the previous shares, the total is 70%. The remaining shares are scattered among small shareholders and retail investors.
Now that Hao Mengyan has given her 20%, she is considered a major shareholder of the Hao family.
There is something that Hao Mengyan said that was wrong. It is actually not that easy to destroy the huge Hao family. She chose to help Hao Mengyan in the first place, not just to help, but also to shorten the process.
Of course, the more important thing is that once the Hao family goes bankrupt, too many people will be unemployed, which is not the result she wants.
Lu Xi kept her own copy of the contract and handed the rest to Hao Mengyan, jokingly saying, "You won't have the chance to regret this time."
Hao Mengyan nodded, "Well, I don't regret it. You know, the people in my family are always good at calculating. They are all Pixiu, and they only take in and never give out. Since I will take these, I have already made up my mind, and I will become a major shareholder. If I have any problems in the future, you will definitely not stand idly by. In fact, I am taking advantage of it."
Hao Mengyan used self-deprecating methods to reassure Lu Xi.
Lu Xi smiled and said, "Don't worry, we are in the same boat."
Hao Mengyan chuckled a few times and spoke again, "After returning to Jiangcheng, I may not come back often. After all, the headquarters of the Hao family is in Jiangcheng, and as the person in power, I cannot leave. I will be very busy in the future, and I can't call you often. But Lu Xi, I will always remember what you have done for me. I will never forget the favor I owe you. If you need me in the future, no matter what, be sure to tell me."
Lu Xi said in a relaxed tone, "Don't worry, if it really comes to that, you won't be able to hide. Even if I can't beg you, what if my baby needs you in the future? At that time, you, the CEO aunt, will definitely help."
Hao Mengyan's nose felt a little sour, and she couldn't help but hold Lu Xi's hand, "Although I have already said it, I still want to say, thank you so much. What happened recently is really like a dream. I always thought I would struggle in life. Even my eldest sister died so tragically, let alone me?
"But the result is that not only did I not follow Hao Mengting's old path, I even rose straight to the top and became the one in charge of the Hao family. To be honest, I still feel a little dazed. Sometimes I get startled when someone honks or something falls. I'm afraid that everything before was a dream and these sounds will pull me out of the dream.
"I was also afraid that I wouldn't be able to do well. I didn't sleep the whole night yesterday, thinking about my grandfather and myself. Can I do well? Can I really do it?
"The initial excitement and determination to succeed have long been replaced by trepidation and confusion. I'm not sure if I can do it. After all, I was only running a studio before, but now there are so many groups that need my overall management. I always feel that I don't have the ability to do it."
Lu Xi comforted her, "I can't help you with business matters, because I don't have much talent in this area, but since you have snatched it, then cherish it. If you don't know how to do it, then work hard to learn from professional managers and try to get started as soon as possible. In short, the opportunity and wealth have been delivered to you. If you don't grab it, won't you be upset to death?"
Hao Mengyan twitched the corner of her mouth, "Well, I'll listen to you and work harder. I'll leave first. I have an appointment with Pei Shaoqing and I have to see Rong Jin again in the evening. Then I'll leave."
Lu Xi nodded, exchanged a few simple greetings with Hao Mengyan, and asked Aunt Liu to see her off.
After Hao Mengyan left, Lu Xi sat on the bed in a daze.
In fact, not only Hao Mengyan felt like she was dreaming, but she, an outsider, also felt like she was dreaming. She herself did not expect that Hao Teng and Hao Bohua, father and son, would get the fate they deserved so easily.
She thought the process would be more painful, but in the end, it was much easier than she thought.
But I still feel a little uneasy, angry, and frustrated.
When Fu Nanzhou came back in the evening, he saw Lu Xi leaning against the head of the bed, seemingly reading a book, but her eyes were empty and she was obviously distracted.
"Wife." Fu Nanzhou walked over, squatted beside the bed and looked up at her slightly.
Lu Xi came back to her senses, "You're back."
Fu Nanzhou touched her face and said, "Well, I'm back. I just noticed you were in a daze. What were you thinking about?"
Lu Xi looked into Fu Nanzhou's eyes and said hesitantly, "I'm thinking about what Hao Teng said."
Fu Nanzhou paused and his expression became serious.
He stood up, sat on the bed, and took Lu Xi's hand, "What do you think?"
"It's easy to think of the Rong family. Although Hao Teng didn't finish his words at the time, he said the word 'Rong' twice. If I'm not mistaken, he should be talking about Rong Bin. And to be honest, Rong Bin was also the one who fanned the flames of the Wei family's affairs.
"Before, we all thought that Hao Teng wanted to swallow up the Wei family, so he joined forces with Rong Bin, but now it seems that this is not the case. Perhaps we guessed wrong from the beginning. Hao Teng is not the so-called mastermind behind the scenes, but just one of the links."
Fu Nanzhou remained silent. In fact, when he met Shen Mo today, he had already expressed his thoughts, and they both thought the same.
They also mentioned Hao Bohua. Hao Teng killed Hao Bohua in public. At first glance, it seemed to be a crime of anger and passion, but perhaps he was hiding a secret and didn't want Hao Bohua to finish his words.
