Chapter 46

Lin You happily accepted a sweet kiss. Fu Xinran’s hand covered Lin You’s eyes. Originally, she had only not wanted to see Lin You’s guilt, but now that she saw the corners of Lin You’s mouth nearly stretching to the back of her ears…

How could she not know this fellow was deliberately pretending to be pitiful so she would not get angry?

Fu Xinran smiled coldly, caught Lin You’s lip between her teeth, and kept stroking Lin You’s neck with her other hand.

Before long, Lin You could not bear it anymore. She tried her best to lift her head, wanting to escape Fu Xinran’s fingers stroking her throat. That dense, tingling itch made Lin You unable to stand it, and her body began to soften.

Her breathing soon became rapid, and her body kept arching backward. Fu Xinran, however, refused to let her have her way. She merely lightly hooked Lin You’s tongue. In their back and forth, Lin You was clearly taught a lesson.

Knock, knock.

The sudden sound of knocking brought the two of them back to themselves.

Doctor Zhuo, with a stern and proper face, looked teasingly at Lin You. She truly had never expected that the domineering president would actually be the one lying underneath. Tsk, tsk. Hahaha.

Fu Xinran calmly stopped her punishment. Lin You shyly shrank her head in, her voice as small as a mosquito. “Is something the matter?”

Zhuo An revealed eight white teeth, dazzling and eye-catching. “Nothing. I just came to take a look at you and show some concern.”

Lin You grabbed Fu Xinran’s clothes, sorrow flowing backward into a river inside her heart.

She had been pressed down and kissed by Ranran, and someone had even watched it. She could not live anymore. Wu wu wu.

“Then you can leave. I’ll be going to work later too.” Lin You buried her head and wiltedly refused to let Zhuo An continue watching the show.

Seeing that the timing was about right, Fu Xinran shifted her gaze to Zhuo An. Zhuo An understood. With both hands folded behind her head, she leisurely walked away.

This private hospital was under the Lin Group. Zhuo An also worked here. Aside from the times when Lin You needed her, she usually worked here.

Lin You buried her head and covered herself in front, taking tiny steps as she fled to the bathroom in a flash.

Seeing that everyone had left, Fu Xinran instructed Chunsheng to wait here for Lin You to come out, then left as well. Later, someone would bring over the clothes Lin You needed.

“Send out the notice. Next Monday at ten in the morning, hold a shareholders’ meeting.”

The moment Lin You arrived at the company, she issued her first order.

Li You sent the notice in the name of the president’s office. Countless people were wondering: it was neither the end nor beginning of the year, and there was no problem with the company’s decision-making level, so why were they suddenly holding a shareholders’ meeting? There had not been the slightest news.

Lin You did not care how the people below guessed, nor did she care whether those people would be driven to desperate measures in the end.

She was going to start dealing with this group of people now. Since you dared use such dirty tricks, do not blame me for flipping the table.

As for the system, she had not spent points for nothing. Lin You currently had evidence of Lin Gong embezzling public funds.

On the other hand, aside from some small movements, Lin Sizheng had actually not left behind any handle. Instead, he had created quite a few loopholes for his old man, waiting for her to seize.

It could be seen that this old thing was not as flawlessly calculating as he thought.

When Su Qingfeng heard that Lin You had been drugged unconscious, she rushed to the company without even changing clothes. Only after seeing that Lin You was fine did she put her heart back into her stomach and rub her head.

“Auntie, go home and rest. It’s nothing serious.” Lin You patted her shoulder and told her to go home and rest.

For the following week, Lin You worked diligently. Lin Gong, however, took sick leave. Lin Sizheng acted as if he knew nothing and occasionally reported his work progress to Lin You.

After several investigations, the tax inspection found no problems, so the tax bureau could only let go.

Some people were unwilling, but they did not dare stroke the tiger’s whiskers, so they could only continue lying low.

The Lin Group had been established for over a hundred years. The relationships inside were tangled and complicated. Only after countless reforms had the parasites who stole, extorted, and grabbed benefits from inside been cleaned out.

Every generation of Lin Group’s leaders would carry out a major cleanup. Lin You taking power was no exception.

Time quickly arrived at Monday. At ten in the morning, the vast meeting room was already full.

Aside from the 41% of shares in Lin You’s hands, another 17% was in the hands of her two mothers.

Added together, their family was already the largest shareholder. That was why Lin Gong was unwilling.

He held 8% of the shares and was the largest shareholder aside from Lin You’s family.

The other minor shareholders’ shares were scattered in bits and pieces. But Lin Gong was especially good at being generous with other people’s money and winning hearts.

Quite a few minor shareholders liked following Lin Gong to cause trouble, but these minor shareholders were not fools either.

What they preferred was standing behind Lin Gong to speak, flattering him and praising his smelly feet. But if they really had to do something, everyone would weigh it in their hearts. After all, the person who truly had the final say was still sitting at the top.

Lin You sat in the main seat and swept her gaze around. “The meeting begins. Everyone has seen the folder in your hands, yes?”

“We’ve seen it.”

“We’ve seen it. Is President Lin planning to launch a new business plan?”

Many people had noticed the folder in front of them from the start, but they had not yet had time to tear open the packaging on it.

“No rush. There are still people who haven’t arrived, right, Great-Granduncle?” Lin You smiled at Lin Gong. Her smile made Lin Gong’s back go numb. He gripped his cane tightly and smiled stiffly.

Could it be that Lin You truly had no regard at all for family affection?

Lin Gong could not suppress his impatience and said mockingly, “I don’t deserve that, I don’t deserve that. I’m just a minor shareholder.”

Lin You nodded seriously, agreeing with Lin Gong’s words. Instead, this put Lin Gong on the spot, and he glared at Lin You in annoyance.

The other minor shareholders did not make a sound, as if watching a play. As for the other Lin family collateral branches familiar with Lin Gong, they exchanged glances and did not speak either.

“Everyone knows the family rules passed down by the Lin family for a hundred years, especially the Lin clan members.”

“From my great-grandfather’s generation to mine, the deadline of three generations has already been reached. Therefore, all Lin clan members should sell the shares in their hands back to the family at the current market price.”

“Today, I am notifying everyone in my capacity as the person in power over the Lin family.”

Lin You’s attitude was forceful. She was only notifying them, not discussing it with them.

“This… this… is too sudden. Even if you are the Family Head, you should have at least informed us first.” Some people shouted indignantly.

Lin You glanced over. They were all from Lin Gong’s faction.

“Everyone might as well look at the documents in your hands first before speaking.” Lin You laughed softly.

Lin Gong’s expression was very ugly. He truly had not expected Lin You to use this move. The uncles and aunts from Lin You’s branch had not come.

Lin Gong guessed they were probably unwilling too. After all, by Lin You’s next generation, the shares in their hands could only be kept for at most another thirty years.

Food already eaten into one’s stomach was suddenly being forced out. Who would be willing? Lin Gong’s eyes shifted, and he was about to raise an objection.

“I have a few photos and videos in my hands. Since it is still early, I invite everyone to take a look.” Lin You interrupted Lin Gong again while everyone was tearing open the packaging. She raised her hand, and the large screen opposite lit up.

Among the other executives, some remained silent, quietly contemplating their lives. Others continuously observed the other shareholders, seemingly weighing something.

Li You understood and nodded, operating the tablet to open a video.

In the video, a person wearing a cleaner’s uniform and a hat crouched beside the tire of the car Lin You often used.

The video clearly captured that person’s movements. A black wrench more than ten centimeters long loosened the screws on Lin You’s car tire.

Judging from how easily she moved, if she was not a habitual offender, then she must have come specifically for Lin You’s car. One had to know that without specialized tools, there was no way to loosen the screws on Lin You’s vehicle.

“This person looks familiar. Isn’t this Zhang Yu, the one specially assigned to maintenance in the security department?” One executive recognized her and cried out in surprise. Many people began whispering.

The moment Lin Gong saw this video, his whole body went numb. But he quickly adjusted his emotions, not letting anyone see even the slightest clue. He had not left any handle, so there was no need to panic.

Under Lin Gong’s probing gaze, Lin You still maintained her smile. In the eyes of others, this smile only made their backs go cold.

Lin You leaned back in her chair. Both hands spread out and held the armrests. Her aura was oppressive, her gaze cold and forceful. Her smile only made people feel chill and fear.

“This video still isn’t clear enough. Let’s watch the next one.”

Li You directly switched to the next video.

This video was even more direct. A tall man with a bulky figure crouched in front of an office desk, frantically searching for something.

“Does it look familiar, President Gao?” The male Alpha called President Gao broke into cold sweat. His body trembled as he wiped the sweat from his face. How could he not know that Ma Yingying’s office had surveillance cameras?

President Gao was at the same level as Ma Yingying. He was also in the finance department. He had always looked down on Omegas, and several times had publicly mocked Ma Yingying as an old woman no one wanted.

“N-no… President Lin, spare me. I was forced by someone.” President Gao had originally wanted to beg for mercy. But when the scene changed and showed him stealing the key, he fell into despair and could only plead, planning to expose the person behind him.

“No rush. There’s more.” Lin You’s leisurely tone made those with guilty consciences tremble.

Her well-defined fingers tapped against the tabletop from time to time, also falling on everyone’s hearts. The meeting room was extremely quiet.

Lin Gong pressed down his dark expression and did not meet anyone’s eyes.

After Li You finished playing the videos, he showed several photos. The first was of Deputy President Xu, who was due to be promoted this year—an older female Alpha. Looking at her own photo, her expression remained flat.

She did not overreact. She seemed very confused about why her photo was being shown and asked doubtfully, “President Lin, what is this?”

Everyone else also did not understand. Why show a single photo of Deputy President Xu when she was younger? Li You swiped the photo, and everyone saw Deputy President Xu’s wedding photo.

In the photo, Deputy President Xu was clearly very young. Against a red background and dressed in white, she stood with a young man. The two smiled happily and sweetly.

“That’s Old Master Lin Gong’s second son, isn’t it?” Someone recognized him and whispered. Everyone’s eyes swished toward Deputy President Xu and Lin Gong.

Lin Gong subconsciously gripped his cane. Then, after thinking about it, what was the big deal about his son getting married?

Deputy President Xu was worthy of someone who had experienced great storms. Her expression did not change, and her attitude was cold as she asked, “President Lin, am I not allowed to get married?”

“Of course you are. Love is free.” Lin You raised her hand and lightly clapped. Everyone present knew Lin You was clearing out the Lin family’s main branch, but they had not expected Deputy President Xu to actually be one of Lin Gong’s people.

“You don’t really think I was so bored that I went to investigate your private affairs, do you?” Since she had laid her cards on the table, the information in her hands was naturally complete.

Lin Gong felt he needed to say something. Just as he released his cane, bang, the door was pushed open.

“Who is Lin Gong? Xu Cheng?” Four police officers in uniform pushed open the door and strode in.

Xu Cheng was Deputy President Xu’s name. Looking at the police officers’ forceful attitude, Xu Cheng knew the police must have solid evidence in their hands. Otherwise, they would not be so forceful.

The moment Lin Gong saw the police, his eyes nailed themselves onto Lin You.

Even if the police wanted to come to the Lin Group, they could not simply barge into the meeting room so easily. One had to know that the Lin family was an aristocratic family. Even people from the municipal committee would be polite when coming here.

Lin Gong’s face twitched. He took a deep breath. Fortunately, he had prepared long ago.

He did not look at Deputy President Xu. He slowly stood up, trembling as he picked up his cane and raised his hand. “I am Lin Gong. Officers, hello?”

“Hello. Please come with us. The Lin Group has reported you for embezzling public funds. Please cooperate with the investigation.” The four police officers stepped forward and took the two of them away.

The others did not dare breathe loudly. All of them sat in their seats, watching Xu Cheng and Lin Gong be taken away. Lin You did not say a single word.

“All right. Those who should leave have left. Let’s not say any more idle words. Everyone, continue looking at the documents in your hands.” Lin You made a gesture of invitation. The others did not dare disobey. None of them wanted to be the next person dealt with.

“The return of Lin family shares is an ancestral rule. I won’t let everyone suffer a loss either. I will purchase the shares in your hands at above market price, and in the next ten years, everyone will still receive dividends.”

Lin You’s conditions were generous, even preferential.

After this round, Lin You had completely taken control of the entire group. As for the others who had committed small mistakes, Lin You did not plan to beat them all to death with one stick. Those who had not gone rotten to the bone and had ability would stay. The others would be swept out.

Lin You’s advance and retreat were measured and effortless. With one round of suppression and reward, plus generous favor, everyone was caught off guard yet had nothing to say.

In their hearts, everyone admired Lin You.

Good methods. Good schemes.

Those who could think things through directly signed their names and sold the shares in their hands back to the family.

Lin You smiled faintly and enjoyed her rare highlight moment.

Su Qingfeng sat among the senior management seats, looking at her niece. Even she had no choice but to admire those excellent methods.
