Chapter 698: Gifting The Long Group Shares

“Grandfather, have you thought about my feelings?” Bai Jingrou’s eyes had reddened. She was able to tolerate all matters. However, this involved a loss of a billion dollars.

Furthermore, though she was his granddaughter, she had only ever received two million dollars of pocket money from him. She did not own the slightest bit of his shares!

“Your feelings?” Long Jingyuan turned to her in confusion.

He spoke with some unhappiness. “Jingrou, didn’t you say that you didn’t verify our familial relationship for the sake of the Long Group’s inheritance? Besides, though our Long family has over a hundred years of history, we’re but one of the affluent families in this country. The business foundation and achievements that the Long Group has today were all things I personally fought for. I have the right to decide what should be done with the Long family’s assets. What is this? Are you revealing your true colours just because I gave ten percent of our shares away?”

“Grandfather, that wasn’t what I meant. I just…” Bai Jingrou’s tears rolled down her cheeks. “I was just jealous. You’re treating an outsider even better than you treat your own granddaughter.”

“Enough of that.” Long Jingyuan also softened his attitude. “In any case, you are the Long family’s only successor.” Strangely, he did not wish to hand his inheritance over to Bai Jingrou.

Fang Xinxin read the document and saw that it was actually ten percent of the Long Group’s shares.

She placed the document back in the envelope and handed it back to Long Jingyuan. “Grandfather Long, I have received your sincere blessing, but I cannot bring myself to accept such a grand gift.”

“This old man brought this for you. Accept it!” Long Jingyuan insisted. “Besides, you already received it. There’s no such thing as returning a wedding gift!”

Fang Xinxin glanced thoughtfully at Bai Jingrou, who was clearly struggling to accept this. She then nodded lightly.

Based on her recollections of her past life, Long Jingyuan would soon pass away.

Currently, it seemed like he would rather hand his stocks over to an outsider like her than to give it to Bai Jingrou. This meant that Long Jingyuan was not especially fond of this granddaughter.

It was a good idea to accept the stocks. After all, Bai Jingrou was a woman with impure intentions.

In this lifetime, she would not allow Long Jingyuan to die.

Considering the favour Elder Long had given her today, if Bai Jingrou truly cheated all his money away one day, she would return this ten percent of shares to him. At the very least, it would be enough for him to enjoy a comfortable retirement.

Bai Jingrou watched as Fang Xinxin shamelessly accepted the shares worth a billion dollars. Her face nearly turned green from anger.

That was her money!

Bai Chenxi and Huang Zhishu were similarly trembling in anger. Jingrou’s things were akin to theirs! Losing it felt as painful as losing a portion of their flesh!

“Madam Bai, Elder Long was but being polite with you. Where did you find the face to accept his shares?” Huang Zhishu could not contain her anger as she spoke up for her daughter.

Before Fang Xinxin could respond, Long Jingyuan raised his voice. “You’re only Jingrou’s adopted mother. Who gave you the right to interfere with my Long Group’s matters? What is it? You haven’t taken enough of the Bai family’s money? Are you also greedy for my Long family’s money?”

“I…” Huang Zhishu immediately turned pale. “Director Long, that wasn’t what I meant.”

“If it wasn’t what you meant, then keep your mouth shut.” Long Jingyuan shot her a warning look.

Bai Jingrou was full of grievance, but she did not dare to speak again. She only said, “I’m feeling unwell. Please excuse me.” Saying so, she quickly ran out of the wedding venue.

No one paid attention to Bai Jingrou.

Fang Xinxin stood before the reporters to declare. “Everyone, the Long Group is a powerful corporation with a hundred years of history. It’s inevitable that they’ll be targeted by greedy individuals. I, Fang Xinxin, will make a promise today to temporarily accept the shares Director Long has given me. In the future, if he ever has the need, all he has to is to ask and I will return everything I own back to him.”
