Shen Nian couldn't help but snort coldly. What a fine "destined but not fated" excuse. Of course, she had nothing to say about Chu Yunyi's final choice of Shen Ximan, but Shen Guoqiang was her father. He used "destined but not fated" to gloss over the matter. He was indeed Shen Ximan's good father.

"What if... I get married?" Shen Nian asked in a cool voice.

Unexpectedly, Shen Guoqiang suddenly became excited, slapping his thigh and standing up, "It's good that she's married, it's good that she's married, girls should get married early." His behavior was too obvious, and although Shen Nian knew something was wrong, she still couldn't guess what he wanted to do.

If she gets married, she'll get 20% of the company's shares. Doesn't Shen Guoqiang feel bad about that? Shen Nian glanced at Lu Jiao and Shen Ximan. Something's not right with those two either. Are they really willing to give her the company shares? When did they become so generous?

Shen Nian didn't have time to think too much; it was good that she could successfully obtain the shares.

"Can Dad transfer the shares to my name today?" Shen Nian asked directly.

Shen Guoqiang was visibly taken aback, and Lu Jiao immediately chimed in, "Niannian, Auntie shouldn't say much about this. Don't worry, Auntie and Manman will never take anything your mother left you. But now that you're married, shouldn't you bring your husband home to meet your father? After all, it's such a big deal, and your father is very worried about you."

Lu Jiao was as gentle and generous as ever, and Shen Nian seemed to share the same sentiment when she looked at her father.

“Yes, Niannian, call him right now and invite him over to meet you. Once you meet him and confirm that you’re really married, Dad will transfer the shares to you immediately,” Shen Guoqiang said, patting his chest. But the prerequisite was that he had to meet Shen Nian’s fiancé.

Shen Nian still didn't understand why they were so insistent on meeting her marriage partner; it certainly wasn't because they were worried about her, as Lu Jiao had said.

Could it be... that they know her fiancé is the president of the JK Group?

That's why he agreed so easily to give her the shares as soon as he met her.

After all, having the president of JK Group as a son-in-law is far more valuable than the 20% stake in Shen's Group. Her father never does anything that loses money, so he must have weighed the pros and cons.

Shen Nian could only think of this one possibility!

"Ahem~ My husband, he's just an ordinary working man. It's not very convenient for him to take time off to come see you, as it would deduct his salary." Shen Nian felt a little embarrassed when she said the word 'husband,' and Mo Ze's face involuntarily appeared in her mind.

Hearing her say that, Shen Guoqiang looked puzzled. Had he made a mistake?!

"How did you two meet?" Shen Guoqiang asked again, unwilling to give up.

"We met while I was working part-time," Shen Nian casually lied.

She absolutely cannot involve the older man in her own affairs. Her father's current behavior clearly indicates that he's after the older man.

"You met her through part-time work?" Shen Guoqiang repeated, looking at Shen Ximan with suspicion.

Shen Ximan jumped out and said, "You're lying. The other party is clearly the president of JK Group. Who are you trying to fool?"

Shen Nian was startled, but quickly calmed herself down. She looked at Shen Ximan and sneered, "I don't know where you got the information that my husband is the president of JK Group. If I really married the president of JK Group, do you think you would still be so smug in front of me?"

"You..." Shen Ximan was speechless.

Shen Guoqiang looked at Shen Nian's expression and saw no flaws. Moreover, her words were not without reason. If she really had such a powerful backer, how could she remain silent?

“The transfer of shares is no small matter, and Dad needs to explain it to the shareholders. Don’t worry, if you really get married, Dad will definitely transfer your mother’s shares to you.” Shen Guoqiang didn’t give a definitive answer, but of course, he didn’t agree to Shen Nian calling a lawyer to sign the papers today.

“I remember there was a shareholders’ meeting this afternoon. Otherwise, Dad could have mentioned this at the meeting. I believe everyone would understand. Whether the shares are in my name or Dad’s name, they are all in the Shen family.” Shen Nian was determined to get this matter settled today, so she suggested directly.

Shen Guoqiang looked troubled. The problems of the Shen family had not been resolved, and now he had to give up 20% of the shares. He was reluctant to do so.

"No rush, no rush, Dad has his own plans." Shen Guoqiang made up an excuse, trying to get away with it.

Shen Nian did not agree. "Dad, it's not a complicated matter. Since Mom has a will, we can just call a lawyer to execute the will."

"Why do you insist on taking these 20% of the shares? Can't your father manage them for you?" Shen Guoqiang finally lost his temper and shouted at Shen Nian.

Just then, his assistant rushed in, panicking, "Mr. Shen, something terrible has happened!"

The assistant probably didn't expect anyone else to be in the office and was stunned for a moment when he rushed in.

"What are you rushing around for?" Shen Guoqiang scolded.

The assistant whispered a few words in his ear, and Shen Guoqiang's expression changed. He then hurriedly followed the assistant out.

Lu Jiao and Shen Ximan knew about the situation at the company, so they went out as well, and no one paid any attention to Shen Nian.

Shen Nian was the last to leave the office. She originally planned to go back and consult a lawyer about inheritance matters, but while waiting for the elevator, she heard people talking about it.

"Have you seen the news? The Lin Group might go bankrupt. Will our company go bankrupt too? I heard that the boss invested in that project behind the shareholders' backs, and now several shareholders have found out and they've all come here."

"I don't know, but if even a company as big as Lin's can't hold on, we're probably in danger too. We should find another company as soon as possible."

"Why am I so unlucky? I thought I would get a job at a listed company right after graduation and have a bright future. I never expected to be unemployed so soon."

The two of them didn't notice Shen Nian's presence and continued talking to themselves.

Shen Nian turned around and asked, "Excuse me, where were you and Mr. Shen having your meeting just now?"

“The large conference room on the fifth floor,” one of the girls replied, somewhat bewildered.

The elevator doors opened, Shen Nian said 'thank you', then stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the number '5'.

A faint voice drifted in from the doorway, "Who was that just now? Was they also a shareholder?"

"I don't know. These shareholders are really unlucky. They lost so much money for no reason."

......

Shen Nian stood in the elevator, looking at the numbers on the screen, her expression silent and solemn.

She had just searched for news about the Lin family again, and she didn't expect that the Shen family would also be involved.

With such a large investment, her father must have mortgaged a lot of things to the bank. The Shen family couldn't possibly have that much liquid capital. If the project fails, he definitely won't be able to repay such a large sum of money.

No wonder…

They're planning to find accomplices by targeting her!
