Chapter 190: She's become a workaholic too.
Chapter 190: She's become a workaholic too.
Qiao Weiwei said sarcastically, "President Zhan, how could President Jiang do this? She's the president's wife of the Zhan Group, yet she doesn't care about the Zhan Group's interests and only thinks about her own Jiang Group's. This publicity stunt will probably make everyone know about this phone tomorrow. She's happy now, but what about the Zhan Group's stock price tomorrow?"
Qiao Weiwei hit Zhan Yanxun's sore spot; indeed, this press conference was for the sake of Zhan Group's stock price.
This was a critical juncture for the Zhan Group, yet Jiang Qianhui used it to promote their newly developed mobile phone.
They didn't care at all about whether they were getting a divorce or about Qiao Weiwei's pregnancy. They even announced her collaboration with the Gu Group to develop mobile phones in this setting. They were really only focused on their work.
This was particularly ironic for Zhan Yanxun, who always took his work very seriously.
Has she become a workaholic too?
So what exactly is he to her? Perhaps nothing at all!
All the reporters snapped photos of the phone that Jiang Qianhui was showing, creating quite a stir.
Tomorrow everyone in Country A will know that the Jiang Group and the Gu Group jointly developed a mobile phone; this can be considered as riding the wave of popularity.
Zhan Yanxun said angrily, "Jiang Qianhui, come here right now."
Upon hearing Zhan Yanxun calling Jiang Qianhui, Gu Xuanwu preemptively spoke up in front of Jiang Qianhui, saying that Zhan Yanxun had spoken.
"President Zhan, I heard you're going to be a father, congratulations! This must be your new wife. I have to say, your taste has gotten worse."
You didn't care about having a wife as young, beautiful, and capable as Miss Jiang, but instead fell for someone who has no education and is average-looking. I really don't know what you were thinking.
Gu Xuanwu wore an expression of disbelief and disdain. Gu Xunjing quickly stepped forward, her face full of gossip, and said, "Dad, I know. President Zhan Yanxun is trying to imitate those domineering CEOs who fall in love with ordinary, naive girls. They have nothing, are ugly, and have a pitiful background, which arouses the domineering CEO's protective instincts. I've never liked naive girls. I prefer a beautiful and intelligent fairy like Miss Jiang."
Gu Xuanwu said smugly, "My son has the right values and good judgment."
Zhan Yanxun's face darkened further. Was the Gu family father and son putting on a comedy show for him?
Zhan Yanxun said in a gloomy and stubborn tone, "We are not divorced yet."
Gu Xunjing grinned mischievously and said, "If you're not divorced yet, hurry up and sign the divorce agreement."
Jiang Qianhui looked at Gu Xunjing and thought that he really didn't hold back when it came to making decisions.
However, she would be very grateful to Zhan Yanxun if he could sign the divorce papers.
If there weren't so many reporters present, Zhan Yanxun would definitely have stepped forward to teach Gu Xunjing a lesson.
Now he held back, speaking with the utmost patience: "Jiang Qianhui, you'd better come over here right now. If you don't, your mother probably won't even be able to use this new phone."
Jiang Qianhui's face turned ugly; Zhan Yanxun was threatening her!
"What phone? How could Madam Jiang not need one? She's not some seventy or eighty-year-old lady who can't use a smartphone?"
At this moment, Old Qin suddenly stood up. There were many people present, and no one knew when Old Qin had arrived. They only saw that Old Qin's face was gloomy.
Zhan Yanxun: "Elder Qin, how did you get here?"
Old Master Qin walked up to Zhan Yanxun and said coldly, "Zhan Yanxun, I, Qin, have watched you grow up. I originally thought you were a good kid, but I never expected that you would betray Sui Sui for such a naive and innocent girl. Sui Sui is my adopted daughter, the heir to my Qin family business, and the eldest daughter of my Qin family. How could you bully her like this?"
At this moment, Zhan Yanxun seemed to understand why Jiang Qianhui was so confident. She brought up Old Qin to suppress him and prevent him from suing her mother.
"This press conference is now adjourned. All reporters and staff, please leave!"
Zhan Yanxun wanted to send all the reporters away, but how could they bear to leave after seeing such a wonderful scene? Today's press conference by the Zhan family was much more interesting than those boring press conferences.
This is so exciting, any one of these stories could be on the front page.
I feel like I already have all the work to do in the second half of the year.
Seeing that the reporters could not be driven away, Zhan Yanxun became even angrier.
Qiao Weiwei added sarcastically, "President Jiang is really something. I never thought that her agreement to attend the press conference was just a pretext. Her real purpose was to embarrass you, President Zhan, and to dig a pit for you and for the Zhan Group. I'm afraid the Zhan Group's stock will plummet again tomorrow morning."
Zhan Yanxun's face was grim; he hadn't expected to be outmaneuvered by Jiang Qianhui.
I never expected her to do something like this!
Before Zhan Yanxun could say anything, Old Qin approached him and said.
"Yan Xun, I'll give you one more chance. Is that woman's child yours?"
Qiao Weiwei was furious; now she had become that woman in everyone's eyes!
"Mr. Qin, you and my grandfather were close friends. You watched me grow up, and I have always respected you. But I hope you will not interfere in the matters between my wife and me."
Zhan Yanxun's eyes darkened, but Old Qin calmly said, "I don't want to get involved in anything between you and your wife. After all, I'm not familiar with this woman, and I don't think much of her."
Old Qin pointed at Qiao Weiwei with a look of utter disdain.
How come his wife has now become Qiao Weiwei?
Zhan Yanxun was practically going crazy.
"Mr. Qin, my wife is Jiang Qianhui!"
Zhan Yanxun tried to correct Qin Lao's form of address, but Qin Lao responded with a sarcastic remark.
"Your wife is Sui Sui? You still know your wife is Sui Sui. You're pregnant with this woman's child. What makes you think our Sui Sui will be your wife?"
"Let's sign this divorce agreement. We don't want any of your property. We just want to live our own lives peacefully."
At this moment, Jiang Zhengguo came out and slammed the divorce agreement on the table.
He didn't want any property; he just couldn't bear to see his daughter suffer.
Old Qin frowned and said, "The one who did wrong is Zhan Yanxun. How can Sui Sui leave with nothing? People who don't know the situation will think that Sui Sui is the one who did wrong. My daughter, Old Qin's daughter, cannot suffer such injustice."
At this moment, Gu Xuanwu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this old man Qin had no son, which meant that his son had gained another competitor.
Jiang Qianhui did not expect her father to come, and he even brought divorce papers.
He doesn't even want any property, he just wants her to get a divorce.
Her father loved her.
The Qin Group and the Jiang Group, if separated, cannot compete with the Zhan Group, but if they join forces, they will be able to give the Zhan Group a hard time.
The questioning and coercion from Qin Lao and Jiang Zhengguo put immense pressure on Zhan Yanxun, but he still persevered.
"Even if we're not doing well ourselves, Jiang Qianhui will always be my wife!"
