The atmosphere in the living room froze. Li Dongjue gently tugged on Sheng Hongfei’s wrist. Afraid that Sheng Hongfei would say something irreversible again, he shook his head to hint to her.
Sheng Hongfei looked displeased. She looked at Old Master Li with hatred in her eyes and gritted her teeth as she said, “Fine, we’ll pack up now!”
“We’ll hurry up and disappear from your sight so that you can enjoy peace in the villa!”
Nestled on the sofa, Li Nanchen wanted to continue sipping his tea. However, his phone screen lit up. The caller ID from the offshore company made his brows furrow and he had an ominous feeling. Li Dongjue and Sheng Hongfei both stood rooted to the ground. With curiosity and anticipation in their eyes, they stared at him as he picked up the call.
The manager of the offshore company tried his best to maintain a calm tone as he emphasized, “President Li, something has happened at the branch company.”
“This problem can’t be resolved by us. Do you think the headquarters can get some people to take charge of the situation?”
The manager had also seen the news about the Li Corporation from overseas. He did not dare to ask Li Nanchen to personally rush out of the country while he was ill, so he could only probe apprehensively.
Li Nanchen raised his eyes and glanced at Li Dongjue. In a low voice, he replied, “Wait for my news.”
After hanging up, Li Nanchen told Old Master Li about the situation outside the borders. All of a sudden, Li Dongjue spoke up and walked to the Old Master to recommend himself for the job, “Grandpa, since Brother Nanchen can’t leave, why don’t you let me handle it?”
“Offshore companies and overseas companies have always had dealings with each other. I also have some understanding of the situation of offshore companies.”
“If it’s not too difficult or troublesome, I should be able to manage it. After all, Li Nanchen is needed to guard the Li Corporation’s headquarters now…” Li Dongjue threw out the suggestion. The speculations in Li Nanchen’s mind instantly became reality.
His thin lips curled up and he subtly looked at the people from the second branch. “I was still wondering why Second Aunt would give in so easily and leave the country. I didn’t expect you guys to have designs on the offshore company?”
“In order to stay in China, you guys put in quite a bit of effort.”
Li Nanchen applauded lightly, but the indifference and coldness in his eyes were fixated on Li Dongjue.
Li Dongjue pretended to be innocent. He shook his head and shrugged as he said, “What are you talking about? Why don’t I understand anything?”
Playing dumb, he pointed at the number that was calling again from outside the borders and said, “Who can predict the situation with the offshort company beforehand?”
