The most authoritative elders in the family had all expressed their opinions, and the others at the table also echoed, saying that Lin Miao was a diligent and sensible girl, and that she was the best choice for the Li family’s daughter-in-law.
Li Jingjing thought to herself and shook her head with a bitter smile.
From what the people in the old mansion and the family said, Lin Miao was indeed a smart woman who knew how to win people’s hearts.
It wasn’t an easy task to deal with that uncle and aunt who only cared about money and benefits.
Without spending enough capital, it would be impossible to achieve. It seemed that Lin Miao had also paid a lot to achieve her goal and successfully enter the Li family.
Li Jingjing looked at the people at the table. Everyone’s eyes met and avoided each other. They looked at each other and whispered to each other. No one supported Li Jingjing’s statement.
Li Jingjing now understood that this dinner was a trap set up to coerce her. Everyone spoke one after another, suppressing Li Jingjing and firmly refusing to agree with his position.
Li Jingjing’s cold face was supposed to be kept away at home because she didn’t want to face her family and relatives with a cold face.
But now, seeing this scene, these so-called family members were trying to force her to give in under the pretense of doing it for her own good and for the family’s long-term plans, not giving her any room for negotiation or explanation, Li Jingjing’s cold and gloomy expression continued to deepen.
How could he do that? This was definitely not Li Jingjing’s style!
They liked Lin Miao from the Lin family so much. Did they want to marry a neighbor girl and let Lin Miao be at their mercy?
In the end, these people’s selfishness was already obvious. It was all for the Li clan’s business. A woman who was easy to manipulate was of great significance to them. All of them were greedy for money and did not contribute anything. They only wanted to snatch the harvest.
He called me back for a meal and said it so arrogantly on the surface. It’s really preposterous! If this group of scheming people were allowed to succeed, then it would really be God’s eyes!
Thinking of this, Li Jingjing took the initiative to raise a few glasses and stood up. He looked at the crowd with a cold and decisive gaze, then said word by word in a low but firm tone,”
“I’ll say it seriously again in front of everyone. It’s a different era now. Our views on marriage and love are different from the past. We can’t use the standards of the past to measure marriage now.
Since all of you are aware of the situation, I will also solemnly declare that I will carefully deal with my personal relationship problems, including the problems of my future grandchildren. I promise all of you that I will not affect the development of the company and the future of the family!”
Li Jingjing’s words were very firm, and the table fell silent. Everyone looked at each other but didn’t say a word. This topic was very firm and serious, so it was difficult to continue.
Seeing everyone’s expressions, Li Jingjing knew that they wouldn’t be so easy to convince or deal with.
“I’ve said my piece and made a serious statement. I’ll toast this glass of wine to everyone. Let’s drink it first!”
After Li Jingjing finished speaking, she tilted her head back and finished the wine in her glass.
Only a few juniors at the table watched Li Jingjing drink and toasted with her.
However, all the elders were in a daze and didn’t drink the wine. Li Jingjing’s father, uncle, aunt, and aunt Fang were still holding their glasses in their hands but didn’t drink.
Their intentions were clear. If they drank with Li Jingjing, it would mean that they agreed with his attitude and words.
Li Jingjing’s uncle, as an elder of the family, was a relatively prestigious person. He had been smiling when he was reasoning with Li Jingjing, but now that he heard Li Jingjing’s firm statement, his face finally turned cold.
“This is no small matter. As a descendant of the Li clan, every single one of you has to bear a heavy responsibility. Not only do you have to think about yourself, but you also have to think about the interests of the clan as a whole!
As long as these elders are here, they will never allow anyone to do things willfully and do anything that is not beneficial to the entire clan, damaging the clan’s reputation and causing li clan to lose face!”
Li Qianqian’s uncle’s words were quite harsh. He represented the Li family’s elders and directly made a decision. He absolutely wouldn’t allow li Qianqian to act as she pleased and act willfully.
Everyone present quieted down and waited silently to observe the next development of the situation. The scene was now full of gunpowder and the battle of words had already begun.
Hmph! Li Jingjing snorted lightly. She could see these people’s faces more clearly now.
All of them were ignorant, incompetent, and did not want to work hard. All they wanted was to stare at the Li family’s business. They wanted to come back and get the biggest piece of the cake with the shares that they had received since many years ago.
If such a scheming mind was used on the path of career development, they would not have to drift outside and be unable to contribute to the company.
Li Jingjing had long been on guard against those in the family who only wanted to fight for benefits. She was not afraid that they would use the most hateful tricks.
No one made a sound, waiting to watch the show.
Li Jingjing looked at her uncle coldly and said without any fear,”
“If there’s something you want to say, just say it.”
“Alright, my words don’t represent an individual, but the opinions of the entire li clan’s elders. Please don’t misunderstand.”
“Li Jingjing, as the eldest son and grandson of the Li family, you have to think of the big picture and deal with things that happen, whether it’s your career or your personal life.
Now that things have come to this, you only have two choices!”
“First, go to the Lin family to propose marriage before things get messy. Marry the Lin family’s daughter openly and grandly!
Second, if you can’t do this, for the sake of the entire Li family, you’ve violated the family rules and Chang Lun, so you must leave the Li Corporation and the Board of Directors on your own accord. You must also resign from your identity and status as the president of the Li family!”
Everyone present was so quiet that they didn’t even dare to breathe loudly. These words were too heavy, so heavy that it was like the court directly passing down a sentence, and a lifetime sentence at that. There was no room for negotiation.
Li Jingjing already knew that these people had already discussed how to deal with her, but she hadn’t expected them to be so ruthless.
Uncle’s words must have been discussed among them. After hearing such sharp words, everyone actually expressed silence and agreement. It was meaningless.
And her uncle actually said that if she didn’t marry Lin Miao, it would be against the family rules and Chang Lun, and he would kick her out of the house!
Li Qianqian couldn’t help but laugh out loud. She thought to herself that these stupid humans were too blindly confident and self-righteous.
Did they think that the company would be so huge for no reason? If the company left his management and control, would it be able to continue to develop so smoothly?
If he didn’t consider the consequences, he would definitely be digging his own grave in the future!
