CHAPTER 772: CHAPTER 762: JIANG WENHU IS YUE SHENG’S NEW DEPUTY GENERAL MANAGER

Jiang Wenjia, summoned by her own father, stood at the hospital room door with her husband, Liu Xuhui.

Deep down, she didn’t dare to push open the door in front of her.

The company was still undergoing a temporary shutdown, and she couldn’t recall how many resignation letters she had signed during this period.

Everyone was almost gone, so how could the company and factory operations be maintained!

No matter how slow she was, she had a feeling that Yue Sheng might not be able to hold on this time.

The last time her name came up on the blacklist investigation, her enraged father had given her a severe scolding.

Now this ward was no different from a dragon’s den to her.

She still didn’t know why her father called her again this time, was it possible he just wanted to scold her to let off steam?

With anxiety in her heart, Jiang Wenjia simply pushed her husband forward, "You go in first."

Liu Xuhui: "..."

He wasn’t included when there were benefits, but when there’s trouble, they expect him to take the lead.

He stepped forward, pushed the door, "Dad, Wenjia and I came to see you."

"Would you have come if I didn’t call? Wishing I’d die here, aren’t you!"

Liu Xuhui forced a smile, "Dad, what are you saying? It’s just that there have been a lot of issues popping up at the company recently, and Wenjia and I have been busy handling them."

"Humph, wasn’t it all caused by you yourselves!"

Jiang Wenjia walked behind her husband, gingerly poking her head out. Upon seeing her father lying in the hospital bed, she widened her eyes in shock.

"Dad, how come you..."

The rest of her words, ’suddenly look so old,’ were swallowed back forcefully.

No one likes being told they’re old, especially her dad, who always prided himself on being still vigorous!

But looking at her father, who she hadn’t seen for a mere half a month, with hair completely white, his skin sagging heavily, eyes more muddled, Jiang Wenjia moved her lips, but didn’t know what to say.

Jiang Peng didn’t scold his second daughter and son-in-law anymore, mainly because he didn’t have the strength.

After a while, he hoarsely pointed to the sofa, "Sit."

The couple cautiously sat down.

After all, with the old man in such a state, they were truly afraid of saying something wrong and setting him off.

"Dad, did you call us over this time because you have something to tell us?"

"Someone wants to buy Yue Sheng."

Jiang Wenjia instantly leapt up from the sofa, "You want to sell Yue Sheng?"

"Otherwise, can you save Yue Sheng with your ability, when you even take kickbacks on purchases in your own company?"

Jiang Wenjia fell silent, "B-but, aren’t you here?"

"That’s only if I can get on my feet and have the energy."

Liu Xuhui tugged at his wife’s arm, "Dad, at this critical moment, who would want to buy Yue Sheng?"

Currently, Yue Sheng was quite a mess.

"A new company named ’Yin Sheng’, quite financially robust, likely young and fearless."

"Yin Sheng?" Jiang Wenjia repeated, feeling the name was familiar, but couldn’t immediately recall where she had heard it.

"Dad, if you sell Yue Sheng, what will we do? What about Mom?"

"Haven’t you both taken enough benefits from the company over these years? Don’t expect to take from the sale of Yue Sheng. I’ve already arranged for a high-end retirement home, and will move there once the funds from Yue Sheng’s sale arrive. As for your mother, I’ll leave her some for retirement. If she spends it all, aren’t you two still there? I don’t need you to care for me in old age, just look after your mother."

Jiang Wenjia: "..."

Although she had known her father’s cold nature since childhood, this was her first experience of such chilling disregard directed at herself.

Indeed, back then he was able to infuriate his wife to death, sever ties with his biological daughter for over two decades without a word, so now it was no surprise he would spend the money on himself, not letting her benefit at all.

"So, you called us over just to notify us that Yue Sheng will soon be sold and that we don’t need to care about Yue Sheng anymore?"

"Exactly. I’ve already appointed an agent to liaise with Yin Sheng, so neither of you needs to bother going to the company futilely every day. Use this time to think about what to do next. You’re still young..."

Jiang Wenjia laughed dryly, her eyes reddening with mirth, "Then Xuhui and I will leave first. Thanks to you, we’re still job hunting at our age. I hope you sell Yue Sheng at a good price!"

The hospital room door slammed shut, Jiang Peng lay in bed gasping heavily, coughing and cursing, "Ungrateful daughter!"

With both sides determined — one to sell, the other eager to buy — the company being in its current state, the longer it dragged on, the less it would be worth, so the acquisition process moved unprecedentedly fast.

After the sale funds came in, Jiang Peng only mourned briefly before rushing to contact the booked high-end retirement home, preparing to move there and enjoy his later years financed by the sale.

Meanwhile, Jiang Wenjia and Liu Xuhui, who lingered at home, learned through their remaining company connections about Yue Sheng’s ownership change. They were unwilling to earn nothing from it and couldn’t help but probe into the new owner.

They were the most familiar with Yue Sheng, without a doubt. If the new boss was generous, they might have a chance to return to work, and perhaps even snatch the company back.

Another unspeakable reason was that many companies had strict age limits for recruits, while those who didn’t pay so little that they couldn’t accept it.

As for starting a new business from scratch, they couldn’t bear that hardship.

After pondering, returning to Yue Sheng seemed the easiest way.

"We haven’t met the new boss yet. But today the vice president came over. Funny thing, your name is quite similar to our new vice president’s, could almost be mistaken for sisters if you didn’t know better."

Jiang Wenjia was immediately filled with a bad premonition, "What’s the name of this new vice president?"

"Jiang Wenhu, quite similar, right? She seems gentle, but she acts decisively. Just arrived and already fired a bunch of idle employees. Looks like I’ll have to tighten up as well..."

The later words faded as Jiang Wenjia’s mind roared, only hearing the name ’Jiang Wenhu’ repeatedly.

Liu Xuhui came back from the kitchen with a glass of water, only to see his wife sitting stiffly on the sofa as if she’d lost her soul. He quickly set the glass down and shook her shoulder, "Wenjia, Wenjia?"

Jiang Wenjia’s eyes regained focus, carelessly concerning if the call was disconnected, "Xuhui, Yue Sheng’s new vice president is Jiang Wenhu, it’s Jiang Wenhu! How could it be Jiang Wenhu, how can it be Jiang Wenhu!"

In all her years at the company, she had only reached the position of procurement director. What did Jiang Wenhu know to suddenly become vice president!

This was something she found hard to accept!

Jealousy burned her heart to ashes!

Liu Xuhui was also taken aback, "If Jiang Wenhu is the vice president, then the chairman..."

"Yin Sheng, Yin Sheng, I remember now," Jiang Wenjia suddenly realized, "My uncle is named Jiang Cisheng, and my insane aunt is Xu Yin. Put the last characters of their names together and you get Yin Sheng! Hahaha, I can’t believe I only just realized!"

"I have to tell Dad this great news, that his Yue Sheng was bought at a low price by his own brother. And the eldest daughter, whom he severed ties with, is now Yue Sheng’s vice president. Dad will surely be thrilled to hear this news, haha!"

Liu Xuhui instinctively took a step back as he saw his wife’s nearly crazed expression.

When her father hears this, won’t he be furious to the point of death?
