The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind

Capítulo 433: Chapter 432: Lu Qingyan Returns

“Grandfather, Qingyan is outside, and I can’t let scoundrels harm his company. I will help him manage it, please trust me,” Jiang Nanshu spoke with determination, “I’m just pregnant, not incapacitated. I will be careful with my actions, please let me manage the company.”

After a long while, Old Sir Lu finally sighed, “I’m really afraid of you now. You help Qingyan keep an eye on the company until he returns then.”

Jiang Nanshu hung up the phone and said to Liang Ciqiu with a smile, “President Liang, now I have the right to tell you to get lost, right?”

Liang Ciqiu’s gaze fell on Jiang Nanshu’s smile, then to the pregnancy belly hidden beneath her clothes, and ultimately he let out a resigned laugh, “I’m really afraid of you now. You just take good care of the company, I’m leaving.”

Only then did Jiang Nanshu instruct Ye Yuan to show her the recent projects.

Jiang Nanshu had never dealt with Lu Family affairs, but based on her previous management experience, she got the hang of it quickly.

She would inquire carefully about some projects with Ye Yuan.

Ye Yuan went from being nervous at the beginning to admiring her in the end.

Their CEO’s wife actually knew how to do business!

Truly remarkable.

Her proficiency was not even a bit inferior to their President Lu’s.

Jiang Nanshu reviewed all the projects that Lu Family had dealt with over the past month, and apart from a few newly signed ones, there weren’t any major issues.

When Jiang Nanshu got to the last one, it was a batch of seafood newly procured by Lu Family. Lu Family’s industry span was vast, including the catering business, so their food supplies were all imported from overseas.

Mostly, it involved fish.

Just a signature away, and this batch of seafood could be delivered to the dining halls of the Lu Group.

“When did this batch come up?”

Ye Yuan glanced at it; seafood was so commonplace that he usually didn’t pay much attention and said, “It should arrive tonight. This has been our supplier for a long time. Only with your signature can the goods be brought in.”

Jiang Nanshu stared intently at the blank space for a signature.

“Which company’s goods?”

“Ah?” Ye Yuan had really not examined it closely.

These were all seafood contracted by some small companies.

And all they needed to do was to buy it and then supply it to their restaurants.

But since Jiang Nanshu wanted to know, Ye Yuan could only go to check, “Madam, please wait a moment. I’ll go have a look.”

“Hmm.”

After looking through more than a dozen projects, Jiang Nanshu’s head was about to explode.

So she threw the documents onto the table and rubbed her weary temples.

Half an hour later, Ye Yuan returned with an odd expression, “Madam, I’ve found out, the supplier behind this is a seafood company. But this small company is funded by the Bao Family, with shares from Mr. Bo.”

In essence, for every batch of goods sold, Bao Yan could make money, but he was not the legal person of the company.

Jiang Nanshu frowned imperceptibly upon hearing that this small company was somehow related to Bao Yan.

“Ah, Madam, we don’t have any vested interest in Mr. Bo, and many of the catering-related seafood in the Beijing Circle is imported from this place. If we don’t take this batch, the company will sell to other companies,” Ye Yuan finished speaking and then stood in silence.

After all, Jiang Nanshu was now the boss, and he was just a subordinate.

Jiang Nanshu tossed the pen aside, “This batch of goods, return it. We don’t want it.”

“Ah?” Ye Yuan blinked, “Why?”

Just a batch of seafood, it wasn’t a big problem.

Jiang Nanshu didn’t even frown, but her tone was somewhat capricious, “I despise Bao Yan, so I won’t accept any goods related to him.”

Ye Yuan was speechless. Was that the reason?

Although he felt that Jiang Nanshu was being a bit too arbitrary, he didn’t say anything, just felt a bit regretful that this batch of fresh goods would go to another company.

He reluctantly went to refuse.

In the next moment, he received news that the batch of goods had been bought by the Yang Family.

He sighed in his heart and could only contact other seafood channels, doing his best to avoid any dealings with the Bao surname.

It was in the afternoon when Jiang Nanshu heard from Ye Yuan complaining about the goods being taken by the Yang Family.

Jiang Nanshu looked up at him, “Aren’t they being watched by the police? Are they still able to buy and sell?”

Ye Yuan: “They’re only under investigation. They continue to do business as usual, and if nothing out of the ordinary is found, the investigation will be dropped.”

Jiang Nanshu nodded, understanding. Losing a batch of seafood was naturally not something she’d lament over. She subconsciously wanted to avoid the psychotic Bao Yan. Recently, there had been no news of him, and even if there were, it was just about him attending various banquets. As time passed, it seemed he had moved on from the grief of Xu Xingwan’s death.

Which was entirely different from his craziness those few days.

Therefore, Jiang Nanshu couldn’t be bothered to pay him any more attention.

A week after Jiang Nanshu took over the Lu Group, Lu Qingyan finally returned safely.

Alongside him was the corpse of Father Lu.

Father Lu was dead.

Dead from serious complications caused by AIDS. By the time Lu Qingyan found him, he was already beyond help.

Including negotiations, it took him a full week to return.

Old Sir Lu, learning of his son’s trouble, collapsed directly from illness.

No matter how scoundrel Father Lu was, he was his biological son. The tragedy of a father burying his son led to him being rushed to the hospital in time to stabilize his heart condition.

When Lu Mother learned of Father Lu’s death, she too found it unbelievable.

The man she had quarreled with for the better part of her life had suddenly died…

Such an abrupt death left her completely unprepared.

And she fainted dead away.

Lu Qingyan had to be busy arranging Father Lu’s funeral and also comforting Old Sir Lu, while also sending someone to care for his mother.

Waiting for them to wake up to attend Father Lu’s memorial service.

Lu Qingyan was so busy that he could hardly touch the ground, and he forcefully demanded Jiang Nanshu go back to rest. The company’s matters could be handled by him; as a pregnant woman, she didn’t need to tire herself every day.

Five days later, Father Lu was buried.

He was bought a piece of land with good feng shui for his grave.

That night, Lu Qingyan sat in the study’s chair with his eyes closed.

Jiang Nanshu held a cup of hot water in her hand. Only after five days were the two of them in the same room again.

Each time Jiang Nanshu woke up, she could not find Lu Qingyan.

“How could you be gone for so long?” Jiang Nanshu asked.

Lu Qingyan opened his eyes, and there Jiang Nanshu stood in front of him. He could see her slightly bulging belly just by lowering his head.

Lu Qingyan hugged Jiang Nanshu’s waist, pressing his entire being against her: “You’ve worked hard, Nannan. You managed the company so well while I was gone.”

“Lu Qingyan, can you not evade the question?”

Lu Qingyan looked at Jiang Nanshu helplessly, “Their boss wouldn’t let me leave, wanted to do business with me. How could I stoop to their level and collude with them? So, I swore to resist to the death, I would never give in to them.”

“That’s it?”

“Yeah, what else did you think it would be?” Lu Qingyan pressed his face close to Jiang Nanshu’s belly: “Can you hear the baby now?”

Jiang Nanshu looked at him with a smile, “Maybe in the fifth or sixth month.”

Lu Qingyan lifted his head, his peach blossom eyes shining brightly, then looked down again, muttering to himself: “Baby, I’m your dad. You’ll be out in a few more months. During this time, you’re not allowed to give your mom a hard time, got it?”

“Lu Qingyan, do you prefer a boy or a girl?”

Lu Qingyan kissed her belly gently, his eyes tender: “If it’s a boy, he’ll help me protect you. If it’s a girl, then I’ll protect both of you. Whatever you give birth to, I’ll love. It’d be perfect if our child were like you, whether a boy or a girl.”
