Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband

Chapter 882 Testing Him...

The moment Jiang Yuyan entered the meeting room as Xiao Min opened the door for her, Lu Lijun's sight followed her, and just like others, he could see the power this cold woman held and how intimidating she looked.

Her eyes devoid of any emotions, her face calmed and carried the threatening silence enough to make others behave. This petite figure was the one who controlled this empire of Lu Corporation. No one dared to take her for granted, thinking she was just a woman when this woman could be more dangerous than any other powerful man out there.

She never blinked an eye if she had to make tough decisions even though the other person pleaded by kneeling in front of her. It was as if she could not feel their pain, but one thing was there, she never let anything unfair happen to others.

"Good Morning, President Lu."

Everyone greeted her while standing, and she replied, nodding lightly.

Xiao Min pulled out a chair for her, and she sat on it. She was exactly opposite to where Lu Lijun sat behind his father, and he could observe everything she would do.

The people present were not ordinary ones, but they turned silent on her arrival, and Lu Lijun could only stare at her.

She was busy going through the file kept in front of her, which mentioned the meeting's important points. Lu Lijun tried not to look at her, but unintentionally, his sight followed her and observed her every detail.

Since she entered, she didn't look at Lu Lijun as if he was not there, which affected him. Her every action made him realize his presence or absence didn't matter to her.

The meeting started, and one of the department heads offered the plan he thought the deal would be good for the company.

"President Lu, the takeover process for this company needs your approval," the middle-aged man, wearing a suit, informed.

"Valid reasons to do so," Jiang Yuyan instructed him to answer as she leaned back in her chair and looked at the man.

"Everyone knows it was one for the successful companies in its field, but recently it faced some crisis. This one still has the potential to do better if we take it under Lu Corporations."

"I am sure Mr. Yu has gone through the reasons behind the downfall of once a successful company," Jiang Yuyan commented as she looked at the man waiting for him to reply.

Her gaze on him made him nervous a bit, but he turned confident and spoke, "There are always so many reasons, and it's nothing new for any good company to go bankrupt. It keeps happening. We should only take advantage of the opportunity and do business out of it."

"That's it?" Jiang Yuyan asked.

Seeing her not moved by his words, the man felt even nervous, "What other reasons can be there for us to do business and use the best opportunity?"

"Hmm, let me tell you other reasons," said Jiang Yuyan, and everyone paid attention to her. Lu Lijun, too waited for her to talk and focus on her.

Jiang Yuyan continued, "I remember Mr. Yu has one pretty daughter who is in Russia, am I right?"

"Y-Yes, but…."

Jiang Yuyan gave him a look as he was interrupting her. She gave him a chance to talk, but he missed it, so now it was her turn. The man kept quiet.

"So, Mr. Yu's daughter is in love with the son of that company's owner, and even after not giving her permission, she is adamant about marrying that man, am I right?"

The man was shocked to hear it from Jiang Yuyan. It was not like something unexpected happened, as Jiang Yuyan had people who could take out the data about anyone.

Mr. Yu was surprised because his daughter was in Russia, and he made sure not to let anyone know about her private affairs. He had even warned his daughter to be away from her man until he solved the problem, but he was surprised by how Jiang Yuyan knew it.

"President Lu…."

"I'm not done yet," Jiang Yuyan warned.

"As the daughter is not ready to listen, father thought to do something to protect her future with the man and support him by helping their company through Lu Corporation."

The man felt embarrassed but wouldn't want to lose face, "That's what I did as a father, but we can't deny that it's a great deal. Along with my daughter, I thought about the business that we would get."

"I don't doubt Mr. Yu's intentions towards the company, and there is nothing wrong to love a daughter, but what is wrong is being blinded by it and not going into the depth," Jiang Yuyan countered.

The man looked at Jiang Yuyan, feeling puzzled. Not just him, but others also waited for her to continue, and just then, Xiao Min passed files to each of them present there, and it also involved Lu Lijun.

Everyone went through the files reading the information carefully while Lu Lijun just scammed through the pages faster and understood what was going on but waited for Jiang Yuyan to speak.

As everyone was doing their reading, Jiang Yuyan didn't wait for them to finish as waiting was what she didn't like. As they read, she continued talking.

"Once a successful company suddenly is on the verge of bankruptcy. It's nothing new, but there are always valid reasons. For example, when the owner of that company had no long term goal to run a business but wants to earn fortune over his short period success and spend his life enjoying the luxuries through that money by abandoning that business."

She stopped, and Lu Jinhai concluded, "This seems like the case here."

Jiang Yuyan nodded, "Hmm!"

"If it's the case, then that also means the company didn't lose the money, but it was never used in return for it," one man among them concluded.

"Hmm!" Jiang Yuyan agreed, and everyone could get the link.

"Then that much money is not easy to get just like that and hide."

"He must have laundered the money outside of the country."

"True, but still, it's not easy to hide. We are not talking about any small amount of money here."

"He must have strong connections inside and even outside of the country."

So many conclusions were there, and Jiang Yuyan calmly listened to it. Someone spoke.

"President Lu, how did this person hide this much money. In the file, we can see it's not a small amount; it's the entire company's worth."

As the man asked, everyone waited for Jiang Yuyan to talk, and she looked ahead, where Lu Jinhai sat. When they thought she would talk to Lu Jinhai, something surprising happened.

"What do you think about it, Lu Lijun. What's your take on it?" Jiang Yuyan spoke.

This question from her didn't just surprise others, but the most surprised person was Lu Lijun himself. Lu Jinhai turned to look at his son with a sight full of expectations.

Though Lu Lijun was surprised by this unexpected question, he didn't show it and stood confident. Answering the question was not a big deal for him as it was just a piece of cake. What surprised him was Jiang Yuyan noticed his presence and considered him an important person by involving him in the meeting discussion when what he planned was just to be a bystander for his father's sake.

As everyone's attention was on him, Lu Lijun got up from his chair and looked at Jiang Yuyan, who looked at him just like others did, waiting to hear from him.

Lu Lijun started, "As the president, Lu said, the owner had no intention of running the business for long and waited to earn a fortune, he must have created another small company which is the subsidiary of the leading company. That subsidiary was not promoted at all and must be unknown though its products are in the market just for the sake of showing it's working, and a sure thing, it must be in a significant loss."

"The reason to do so must be they could transfer the money from the main company to the subsidiary one in order to provide finances and cover loss. There is not much loss, but on paper, it must have been forged to show it on beggar level by showing fake production units and labors."

Now everyone started to get the point. Lu Jinhai felt proud while Jiang Yuyan waited for him to talk as the things were not over yet.

Lu Lijun continued, "As the loss was fake, but money was still there, they must have created the paper companies, which means fake companies only on papers. Those are not just one or two but more in numbers to cover this huge amount of money.

"With the strong connection in another small county, where the law is not strict, and the things could be done easily by bribing, they created fake companies there on the name of someone known, who won't raise the question. Then, they sent money as finance for it, but that money reached somewhere else though it, the bank account out of the country. I am sure the documentation must be really clean to catch it, but one can find it if investigated properly."

Lu Lijun stopped, and everyone continued looking at him in admiration. At the same time, Jiang Yuyan had a hidden smile on her lips, which was difficult to identify if she was smiling to appreciate him, or it was just a usual smirk which meant she was testing him.

"I hope you all must understand now," Lu Jinhai spoke, and others nodded.

"So, what do you think, Mr. Yu?" Lu Jinhai asked, and the man had nothing to say.

"My apology. I failed to look into it clearly."
