Ten Years of Yearning. My Love, Let Me Protect You.

Chapter 184 - 184 That Seat... Is Only For My Son!



The old man glanced around and said sharply, "He's not needed here. Also that brat can't come to the company due to some 'personal' reasons."

Luo Qintian told them as he turned towards Luo Lixi. The lady didn't say anything and continued to stare at Luo Tiankong. 

So, the old man then turned his sight towards the man who was very busy trying to give out 'valid' reasons.

"I am not dead yet!" Luo Qintian shouted as he banged his hand on the table. "If something happens, I will take the full responsibility. Moreover, she isn't useless as that brat and I am sure all of you know this matter clearly." 

As Luo Qintian made his stance clear, Madam Wang turned towards Luo Lixi. Her gaze was complicated

Afterwards, the whole room became silent like a graveyard at night.

As the woman saw nobody had the intention to speak further, Luo Lixi stood up and glanced around the office table.

She opened her mouth without hesitation, "I think i am not very capable in your eyes but i know at least how to manage the company…"

All the people looked towards her, silently. They didn't want to irk the old man anymore. Thus they didn't interrupt her.

Some were curious as to what she would be saying and others were showing long face.

"... i will be learning more in the future. I hope… all of you can help me and support me when I need, the company needs...." 

Luo Qintian nodded his head. People looked at each other in an unplanned unison. Finally madam Wang said, "It's not that we don't trust you but... "

People immediately guessed what she was trying to imply. Luo Tiankong decides to add more, "You know the rumour flying about you, don't you?!"

Luo Lixi paused slightly. The old man continued to say, "Our business partners will be reluctant to work with us if they get the wind of it. Also… "

He swiftly sealed his mouth when Luo Qintian's furious gaze fell on him. 

Nonetheless, Luo Lixi's eyes bent into beautiful crescent moon as she spoke out one by one, in her crisp voice, as if everything was fine.

"As uncle has said, it's just a rumour, a baseless one at that." 

Her face hardened the next moment as some sharp words flowed out, "They should put their minds in work, not in others personal matters. If they don't even have the basic trust in us, then… we don't need to work with them."

She put her hands on the table and said, "My company won't collapse if they don't want to collaborate. After all, 'Luo Corporation' isn't their place to butt in!"

At her sarcastic remarks, others turned silent. 

Luo Qintian felt like hugging the girl and said, 'You have really inherited our family's genes!' 

In the end, the old man blatantly showed his favouritism as he said, "I am the major shareholder of this company. As per the rules, i don't need your consent to appoint someone for this position."

He swept a quick glance and said gravely, "Just out of respect and convenience, I have come here to say this personality. If anybody has any problem, say now or shut up!"

Nobody moved their lips. They didn't even have any say in this matter anymore. The old man's forceful voice was  enough!

"Good then." The old man stood up after he waited for anybody to say something but nobody did . 

The others also followed suit and stood up hurriedly. "The company's official website will release a statement later."

The old man did not stay anymore and turned around to leave. Luo Lixi followed behind and left the room as well. 

After the main two people went away, the room erupted into heated discussions. 

"Just what happened?!" 

"I was so shocked! But, i didn't expect this!"

"Where is Luo Lixiang?! Elder Luo is serious. He is really giving the whole company to his granddaughter into a golden platter?!"

All kinds of discussions erupted in the room. Some people even felt like the thing that happened earlier was only their illusions.

Luo Tiankong glanced at Madam Wang. Both of them walked out in tacit understanding.

Soon, they reached a room and walked in silently. 

"Where is Lixiang?" Madam Wang asked.

Luo Tiankong placed his hands around his hips and shook his head. "No idea. He is not picking up his phone…"

Madam Wang turned around and said, "This can't happen! We have been trying to make that trash sit on the CEO's position for so long! How can he disappear like that! Also, that girl…"

Madam Wang turned at Luo Tiankong.

"Didn't Lixiang tell you before that she's dead? Why is she alive now?! Moreover, she looked very sharp from before…" 

The woman clenched her hand tightly as Luo Lixi's face flashed before her eyes."It looks like the whole person has changed. Before… she had used to obey the old man as if she is only born to do so but now…"

"Yeah. She even stood up amid the meeting to say those from her own initiative..." 

Luo Tiankong turned at the woman who was staring outside. Next, the female voice came beside his ears, "Now that she has come, make something so that she can't sit in that place."

Luo Tiankong looked at her eyes profoundly "That seat… is only for my son. Only he is worthy to sit on that high position…" the woman clenched her fists in anger.

"That dead Luo Jibian's daughter can never sit there, not in my lifetime…"

*** ***

Luo Lixi went to the CEO's room. Her grandfather went ahead. Both of them stood before the desk as the old man stared at her eyes, his eyes unfathomable.

"Its okay if you mess up. Just that… don't give others any more chance to harm you. Go, that seat is yours from now on…" As the old man turned towards the chair, Luo Lixi glanced at it as well.
