Chapter 22: I still managed to move you (Edited)

CHAPTER 22

Grandma Li is not an ordinary person. She holds a position' undisputed leader' of the underworld. She has total control of CITY T underworld. She made a deal with government to protect the city from the infiltration of foreign groups and drugs. The only person she listens in the entire world is her husband. She doesn't bow down to anyone else.

After her daughter Wuying left the Li Mansion, She went to find her husband. They needed to have the long pending conversation. This should have happened years ago.

Elder Li was walking in the garden. She was surprised to find her husband here. He always spends his time in the study room in the day time. He looks little tensed as well.

When he spotted her, his expression changed to normal. They both sat on the deck in the garden. Elder Li asked the maid to serve tea for both of them.

Grandma Li looked at her husband in admiration, who still maintains himself in a great shape. Any women will be proud to have such a man. She loves him so much that she had named her Granddaughter Zexi, which is part of her husband's name.

Li Zexian known as Elder Li in the family is aware that his wife must have something important to discuss. That's the reason, she is still hesitating to start the conversation. But he did

"Kang Hua, What's up? What's it that you want to talk to me?"

"Xian, I want to talk a little bit about my granddaughter Wu Zexi. I'm really worried about her"

Elder Li is also aware this topic will come at some point of time.

"Hua, she is also my granddaughter. Tell me what the matter is?"

"Xian, I don't want to go round about things. I will ask you directly. It will not unreasonable as well. Also I will not put you in any uncomfortable position."

"Okay" Continue said Elder Li

"Xian, Zexi is our only granddaughter for both our families. Zexi is full grown up women now. Wuying wants her to get married into a decent family. Apart from the backup from Wu & Li family, Zexi needs to have to share in business as well. Otherwise people in socialite circle will look up to her as a doll with just family backing. But you are aware Zexi is no ordinary girl, who just groomed herself to get married and raise a family. She is very talented, bold and holds a prestigious degrees from abroad. She involves herself lot of charity works in the city"

"Hua, I understand where you are coming from. Even I'm aware about her state. I m also aware about Zexi's charity works. But what does Wuying wants us to do. Does she have any marriage proposal in mind or she wants something else from us."

"Xian, Wuying is worried that they don't have any shares in both Wu and Li family business. What is your plan for Wuhan and Zexi? Wuhan is still very young though. Why you are not thinking about it. Do you feel it's unfair and strange? I am not asking anything for myself or Wuying. But I'm really concerned about the grandkids"

Elder Li felt very bad when grandma Li mentioned unfair. He realized it's partially his mistake as well and he wanted to accept the consequences for not being open. He spoke to his wife in low voice

"You know me very well Hua, I don't mean to be unfair to my kids and grandchildren. I may not be great husband, but I have always try to be a great father and grandfather."

He paused a moment thinking and continued.

"I want to do whatever I can. Li family have lot of properties, Investments and my savings in the bank. I can write the will and distribute the assets to all of them. However White Pearl (Li family business) industries is not exactly in my hands. 20 percent of shares was diluted with public, which was purchased by Elder Wu and Elder Shen."

Grandma Li was surprised to hear this. All these while she was thinking the shares of white pearl were in her husband's name. So she assumed to speak out when the time is right. It is not that grandma Li is after money, She has own family inheritance worth billions. But White Pearl is unique brand in the country. It's one of the first computer hardware manufacturing industry in the country. The reputation of such cannot be built over a short time.

Grandma Li continued

"Xian, do you mean to say that, the rest 80% shares are not in your name. Please tell me clearly, I'm very confused here"

Elder Li wanted to disclose the details since there is no point in keeping it secret anymore.

"Hua, I'm just a guardian of White Pearl Industries. I can maintain it, I can appoint someone to take care of it. But I can't transfer shares because I don't own any shares on the company. "

Grandma Li was even more confused because all these while White Pearl was managed by Elder Li. Even when he was working with the Government. Elder Li managed the company by appointing few people. She just asked him

"Why Xian, What do you mean by that"

Elder Li paused and closed his eyes for a while

"Because white pearl was formed by Gao Tai. She is the sole owner of the company. That's why I don't have any rights. "

Gao Tai is love of his life and his first wife. He was forced to come out of the marriage and get married to Kang Hua.

Since Kang Hua, didn't involve with her family plan of separating Gao Tai & Li Zexian and also she was oblivious of her family intentions. Hence Elder Li always treated her well after their forced marriage.they were also friends from school.

Suddenly an idea popped on his head and asked

"Hua, Don't look so miserable like this. White pearl is not the only income generator for Li Family, You know that too right. I have two options in my hands for Zexi"

Grandma Li looked up to him

"Option One:

We have enough money to last for generations together, Zexi can start a company or buy some if she is interested. I'm happy to invest for her.

Option Two:

If you want white pearl shares to become a major shareholder, I will speak to Gao Tai and ask her if she can sell the shares to me. But I can't guarantee that."

Grandma Li felt very happy inside hearing him. Elder Li still care for her, He is not ignoring the kids and grandkids like she assumed. She thought for a moment and said

"Xian, I, Myself have more money to invest for her. So do not worry about that. But I want a small Favor from you, will you do it for me."

Elder Li was willing to do anything for his grandkids. So responded

"Yes dear Hua, Anything in my capacity"

Grandma Li asked

"Xian, Can you speak to your friend Elder Shen and Let our Zexi train with Shen Mingyu for a year. So that Zexi can gain some experience before involving in her own business. For Wuhan, We still have time. He is just going to complete high school, let's see if we can arrange for great business related education abroad."

Honestly grandma Li didn't expect a positive reply from him. But to her surprise he said

"Kang Hua, How can I say no to you? Too this date you never asked me for a single thing unlike other wifes. I will definitely speak to him. Don't worry about that."

Regarding Wuhan, Elder Wu has something in Mind. I don't have any say in that, after all he is only Wu Family Heir"

Grandma Li blushed a little, when he calls her Kang Hua. He calls her that whenever he wants address her sweetly. He noticed her red cheeks. She came prepared to fight head on head with her husband, but he has his way of taming her well.

"Hahahaha I still managed to move you. Come let's play some cards. Enough of serious discussions"

The butler soon brought those two snacks and tea. They both were best friends before they were husband and wife.
