178: Chapter 178 Returning the Property to its Rightful Owner

Shen Yan held Youyou and raised an eyebrow at him in a challenging manner, "I'm willing to be a doting father, what can you do about it?"

Fang Zhizhuo shook his head in exasperation and said, "What can I do to you? But I worry if you keep spoiling her like this, what if Youyou sets you as her standard when looking for a partner?"

The moment the word 'partner' was mentioned, Shen Yan's face darkened.

"Shut up! Youyou is still young!"

Fang Zhizhuo suppressed a smile, pinched his nose, and teased, "Tsk, tsk, tsk! Why do I smell a strong scent of jealousy?"

Shen Yan remained silent.

Although Youyou was still young, the thought of her leaving him someday to marry and have children made him deeply uncomfortable.

He thought: It doesn't matter if Youyou never works or finds a boyfriend her entire life; he was willing to rely on her financially forever, as long as Youyou was happy and safe.

Fang Zhizhuo had no idea what Shen Yan was thinking.

If he knew, he would surely beat his chest and lament that Shen Yan was already in the final, incurable stages of being a doting father.

As soon as the acquisition contract was signed,

Fang Zhizhuo immediately took his people to handle all matters related to the acquisition.

In less than three days, they completed all the procedures.

Once the procedures were done, Shen Yan brought the Company Name staff to Fuchen Enterprise.

At this moment, the Employees of Fuchen Enterprise still had no idea that their company had changed ownership.

They were still anxiously worried about whether the company would go bankrupt and whether they would lose their jobs.

When a large crowd suddenly flooded through the front entrance, the receptionist was startled.

"Hello, who are you here to see?"

Hearing the question, Fang Zhizhuo stepped forward and replied to the receptionist, "We have acquired this enterprise, and all acquisition procedures have been completed. The person behind me is your company's new President, President Shen."

As soon as he finished speaking,

Shen Yan shot Fang Zhizhuo a sidelong glance.

He felt that Fang Zhizhuo was acting exactly like a sycophant in a novel, always building up the protagonist's prestige wherever he went.

The receptionist was utterly shocked; she had never heard anything about the company being acquired.

"I'm sorry, did you misunderstand? We haven't received any notification..."

Before she could finish speaking, Fang Zhizhuo impatiently interrupted her.

"It's your business if you haven't received a notification. We have completed all the acquisition procedures. Now, hurry up and let us go up. If you don't let us up, we'll go up ourselves."

The receptionist looked extremely troubled.

She didn't know if what Fang Zhizhuo said was true, nor did she know if she should let them proceed upstairs.

Just as she was racking her brain trying to figure out how to resolve the situation, the manager arrived.

"What's going on? Why are so many people gathered here!"

Hearing the manager's voice, the receptionist rushed toward him as if she had been liberated.

"Manager! They say they acquired our company and are here to take over!"

Hearing this, the manager frowned.

He was just about to ask who was so audacious as to come to their company lobby to spout nonsense, but the next second, he saw Shen Yan.

Unlike the receptionist who had just arrived, he had been working at this company for two years.

Although he wasn't there from the very beginning of the company's establishment, he knew that the company's previous President was Shen Yan.

"Pre-President Shen?"

Seeing that the other party recognized him, Shen Yan nodded slightly and said, "It seems Wang Tian didn't inform you. This company has already been acquired by us. But that's fine; we have all the necessary documentation."

Saying that, he glanced at Fang Zhizhuo, signaling him to take out all the proof.

Fang Zhizhuo didn't waste any time and placed all the officially sealed documents from his bag onto the receptionist's desk.

"Here! These are all documents stamped with the official seal. Take a look for yourselves!"

Upon hearing this, the manager immediately picked up the documents on the desk and examined them one by one.

Although there were quite a few documents, he finished reviewing them quickly.

The documents showed that the holders of all company shares had indeed changed from Wang Tian and several other shareholders to Shen Yan.

"I apologize, President Shen. We genuinely did not receive any notification. Since the matter is settled, shall I take you upstairs now?"

People capable of holding the manager position were not incompetent.

Once he confirmed that the situation was irreversible, he proactively offered to lead Shen Yan and the others upstairs.

"Alright, lead the way."

The manager bowed and nodded, then walked ahead in quick steps to press the elevator for them.

Only after the entire group had gone upstairs did the receptionist frantically pull out her phone and announce the bombshell news in the company's large group chat.

[Little Fairy Joy: @ Everyone, this is bad, this is bad! The company has been acquired!]

[Procurement Department Manager: ? By whom was it acquired?]

[Little Fairy Joy: I don't know, but the manager called him President Shen...]

[Fang Box: Holy crap! Could it be that Shen Yan?]

[Tiantian: I think I just saw the manager leading Shen Yan upstairs. Damn! If he really acquired it, then our company is saved!]

Hearing that Shen Yan had taken over their company, all the Employees in the company were overjoyed.

Previously, they had been blissfully unaware, thinking that whoever became the company President would be the same.

After experiencing Presidents Chen Ling and Wang Tian, they realized their thinking was completely wrong.

Not everyone possessed the capability and leadership skills like Shen Yan.

There were also those bosses who clearly lacked ability but insisted on thinking they were exceptional fools.

Shen Yan was unaware that the entire company was already cheering for his arrival. He was currently following the manager back to his original office.

"This is the office of the former President, Wang Tian. What do you need me to do for you next?"

Hearing the manager's question, Shen Yan thought for a moment and replied, "Please gather the managers of all current departments in the conference room for a meeting."

The manager glanced at the time and replied to Shen Yan with a troubled expression, "Many department managers are currently out on assignment, so they might not return to the office for a meeting right away."

Out on assignment?

Shen Yan raised an eyebrow, looking puzzled.

"They aren't managers of the Business Department, so why are they out working?"

Hearing the question, the manager sighed deeply.

"It's like this. Former President Wang said that the company's situation is currently unstable, so everyone in the company must work together..."

At this point, he stopped speaking.

Shen Yan wasn't a fool; he immediately understood the manager's unspoken meaning—Wang Tian felt the company lacked business, so he sent out everyone who could be dispatched to look for contracts.

He pressed his temples and said to the manager helplessly, "Alright then. Please try your best to contact them and have them return to the conference room within half an hour."
