Chapter 491: Chapter 491: I Have Taken a Liking to My Son-in-Law
"Hello, Dad, I’m in a meeting right now. What’s up?"
In Modu, Yuting walked out of the conference room, looking puzzledly at her father on the video call.
She had just been discussing an urgent meeting when he’d called and brought it to a halt.
"Can’t I contact you if there’s no issue?"
Sitting in the villa, Mr. Jiang stared coldly at his daughter through the phone.
At just over twenty, she was at her prime.
Yet, dressed in business attire, she exuded a maturity beyond her years.
Her mixed-race features gave her an exotic charm.
Especially those blue eyes, which were particularly beautiful.
"Dad, stop acting like a child. I’ve been very busy with this international project recently. How about I come see you after I’m done? Just rest in the countryside and don’t worry about the company," she pleaded.
Yuting rubbed her head.
As an elite woman, she was incredibly busy.
To her, Jiangning, a third-tier city, was just a rural area.
"I’m not worried about work; I’m concerned about your marriage. Put your work aside and come to Jiangning. I’ve selected a future husband for you!"
Thinking back to Lin Fan’s recent performance,
Mr. Jiang grew even more excited.
Such a fine son-in-law was one in a hundred.
"Dad, are you senile? I’m only so young, and you’re already pushing me to get married. Plus, you pass up all these heirs from major families in Modu to find me a husband in the backwoods?"
Yuting, holding the phone, was incredulous.
"You don’t understand, treasures aren’t always found in the open market, the best ones are often hidden. Just hurry over, and I will make you realize what a real man is like."
Mr. Jiang couldn’t say much more.
After all, Lin Fan had mentioned that his relationship with Mr. Zhang should not be divulged.
"Do you think men are like antiques, buried underground for hundreds of years? I’m not opposed to marriage and childbirth, but I should at least like the man I marry, right? There are plenty of quality men in Modu, so why should I go looking in the hills? Plus, I’m not ugly; many men are after me. If you’re that eager for me to settle down, I could pick someone suitable from them."
Yuting truly couldn’t understand her father.
Accustomed to business marriages, she wasn’t against match-making or parental suggestions.
After all, she was just the daughter of a third wife,
not born into a direct line, which sometimes made her feel inferior.
"What’s there to pick? There isn’t a single man in Modu worthy of my daughter. Anyway, this is settled. No matter how many suitors you have in Modu, I won’t approve any of them. If anyone wants to be my son-in-law, it has to be Lin Fan I approved. Even if you have a boyfriend, you should break up with him!"
Mr. Jiang was stern.
He had already made up his mind.
"Dad, do you think you might really have a mental problem? Isn’t Cai Liyou from the Cai Family good enough? Last time, you even encouraged me to connect more with him. Why are you turning over faster than flipping a book now?"
Yuting frowned, her face one of disbelief.
The Cai Family was considered prominent in Modu.
Cai Liyou, a master’s graduate from France, was an important pillar of the family.
The two had met several times and felt a common purpose.
Although not yet in a confirmed relationship, they had reached some understanding.
She had thought that, given a bit more time, they would go public.
By then, their union would be a powerful alliance, which could help advance the current billion-dollar financing project.
Who would have thought, Father actually interfered directly.
"This is my sharpness. At that time I hadn’t met Lin Fan and naturally thought the boy from the Cai Family had some abilities, but now by comparison, it’s like the bright moon and fireflies, he can’t even match Lin Fan’s feet. So, it’s settled, you come to Jiangning right away, and if it’s possible, get married soon."
Mr. Jiang paused and said, "Right, I’ve taken in a foster daughter, who will be your foster sister from now on. I’ve already notified legal to transfer the properties, including Cui Xiang Building and Fu Gui Building into her name. Just bring the documents when you come."
"Cui Xiang Building and Fu Gui Building! Those are assets worth over a billion, Dad, have you been deceived? Our family’s wealth wasn’t just blown in by the wind. How can you just give it away?"
Mr. Jiang’s slew of aggressive moves completely bewildered Jiang Yuting.
This was both forcing a marriage and giving away a foster daughter.
She really suspected that there was a problem here.
"When I was roaming the world, you count for nothing. Do you think I could be so easily deceived? I’ve found a treasure this time. Stop talking nonsense and come over. When you meet her, you’ll see just how sharp your father’s eyes are!"
It’s impossible to explain everything clearly over the phone.
Mr. Jiang believed that once Jiang Yuting met Lin Fan’s excellence,
everything would naturally fall into place.
And his daughter, whose looks and demeanour were top-notch in Modu,
would absolutely dazzle Lin Fan.
"Dad, you’re really causing a scene. What era is this? How can you still be talking about marriages arranged by parents? Do you know that a melon forced off its vine is not sweet? I think Cai Liyou is also a decent person, I’m planning for the long term with him. Just keep that bumpkin in your basement. I’m too busy to come over. Just take care of yourself."
Jiang Yuting stood by the window, looking at the skyscrapers of Modu.
This is the most flourishing place in the country.
Although it’s not literally paved with gold, there’s certainly no shortage of high-quality men.
"Yuting, do you think your wings are hard enough now that you don’t even listen to me? I demand you come over immediately. I checked already; there’s a flight early tomorrow. You can fly straight here, and Mr. Chen will pick you up!"
Mr. Jiang’s face darkened, his tone turning incredibly forceful.
This matter would have to be forced through, regardless.
"Dad, I said I’m not coming, and that’s final. I’m busy now, hanging up!"
Jiang Yuting didn’t care whether the old man was happy or not.
As a woman of the new era, she wouldn’t fuss over these issues.
Without waiting for Mr. Jiang to say another word, she hung up the phone.
"This old man, is he getting senile? After all, out of sight, out of mind!"
She turned off her phone and walked toward the bathroom.
After calming herself briefly, she then walked towards the conference room in her high heels.
After all, the top executives of the company were all waiting there.
But just as she opened the door to the conference room,
she found the head of the company’s legal department standing there.
And beside him, several security guards were standing too.
"What’s the matter? Is there a problem?"
Jiang Yuting looked at him puzzled.
He wasn’t supposed to be part of this operational meeting.
And the setup felt strange.
However, he just smiled slightly and stood up.
"Ms. Jiang Yuting, I have just received a dismissal notice issued by the old chairman. Effective this moment, all your roles in Jiang Group are terminated, your inheritance rights are revoked, all bank and credit cards are frozen, and you will no more be liable for any debts incurred by Jiang Group, nor retain any assets granted to you by the company. The dismissal notice takes effect immediately, please leave the office building at once!"
