107: Share transfer
Gu Xiaoyue entered the foyer of her home and found several people sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Gu Family Head Gu Yongze, Gu Qi's family of three, and Chen Yixuan's father, Chen Butler.
Seeing them, her expression, which had been cheerful as she laughed and talked with Chu Li, suddenly turned serious.
Shen Jiajing said very enthusiastically, "Xiao Yue is back. I heard that sister-in-law and the baby are safe, so we came specifically to visit."
Gu Xiaoyue ignored her, moved a stool for Chu Li, and signaled for him to sit down.
Shen Jiajing's face darkened, but she quickly adjusted herself and continued, "Xiao Yue and the young master of the Chu family still have such a good relationship. Why not get engaged first and get married right after graduation!"
She glanced at Gu Xiaoyue and then gave Gu Yongze a look.
Gu Xiaoxing secretly tugged at her hem, signaling her to say less.
Gu Xiaoyue caught Gu Xiaoxing's movement; in less than a year, Gu Xiaoxing had learned to be obedient.
Chu Li remained silent upon hearing Shen Jiajing's words, only a hint of a smile appearing at the corners of his lips.
Gu Yu was very embarrassed, "Xiao Yue and classmate Chu Li just have a good relationship; they are not dating. Sister-in-law, please don't talk nonsense; it's not good for the Chu family either."
The atmosphere dropped to freezing point again. After a while, Gu Yongze spoke up.
"Now that the eldest son's family has the eldest grandson of the Gu Family, when are you returning to the Gu Family?"
Gu Xiaoyue studied Gu Qi and Shen Jiajing's facial expressions, noticing some subtle unnaturalness.
They were probably still coveting the family property and planning to compete with Gu Yu for it.
Gu Yu was silent; he cast an inquiring look at Gu Xiaoyue, meaning that she should be the one to decide.
Gu Xiaoyue crossed her arms over her chest and sat down in a comfortable position.
"Since Mr. Gu wants my father and my younger brother to return to the Gu Family, then transfer 60% of the Gu Corporation shares to my brother's name."
"Presumptuous!"
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Qi and Shen Jiajing both stood up from their seats at once.
It was the first time Gu Qi had heard Gu Xiaoyue call Gu Yongze 'Mr. Gu'; in his eyes, Gu Xiaoyue's behavior was simply rebellious!
As for Shen Jiajing, she was so shocked by Gu Xiaoyue's exorbitant demand that she couldn't sit still!
Gu Xiaoyue looked at Gu Yongze coldly, with an expression that said she didn't want to repeat what she had said.
Regarding the previous incident, Gu Xiaoyue hadn't forced Gu Yongze to give her an explanation; she had only issued a ruthless threat—if anything happened to Gu Yu and Mu Qingning, she would make the whole Gu Family pay!
Originally, Gu Qi and the others hadn't paid much attention to it, but ever since Gu Xiaoxing learned that Gu Xiaoyue had taken first place in the National Competition and led Nanya Academy to defeat Huaqing, she knew that Gu Xiaoyue meant what she said.
Previously, Gu Yu and Mu Qingning lived in the military compound, and Gu Qi still had weaknesses held by Gu Xiaoyue.
Coupled with Gu Yongze's warnings, Gu Qi and Shen Jiajing indeed hadn't made a move against Gu Yu.
But it would be different once they returned to the Gu Family. Since Mu Qingning had given birth to a boy, how could Shen Jiajing allow him to grow up and compete with them for the Gu Family's property!
In Shen Jiajing's eyes, the reason she could smile at Gu Xiaoyue was that Gu Xiaoyue might marry into the Chu family in the future.
The Gu Family's property might double or even triple, so she naturally had to express goodwill toward Gu Xiaoyue!
Once Gu Xiaoyue started school and returned to Nanya, with Gu Yu and Mu Qingning in the Gu Family, she could manipulate them however she wanted.
Gu Xiaoyue sneered, "I said 60% of the shares. Is that too little? Then let's make it 70%. The Gu Family Head is truly generous! That's right, after all, he is the eldest grandson; how could he not be cherished?"
Gu Yongze's face darkened further. He wasn't dead yet, and Gu Xiaoyue already wanted him to distribute the shares. Was she trying to force him to split the family?
Shen Jiajing laughed dryly and changed the subject, "Xiao Yue, I heard you took first place in the National Competition. You've really brought honor to the Gu Family! In the future, if there are any good resources, please think of our Xiaoxing too!"
Gu Xiaoyue didn't pick up on Shen Jiajing's topic, but lowered her eyes and said faintly, "If you want my father to bring my brother back to the Gu Family, you need to show some sincerity. Just opening and closing your mouth, thinking only of your own benefits, simply won't do."
As she spoke, she shook her head with an expression of regret.
"That's enough!" Gu Qi slammed the table, "I knew you were greedy for the Gu Family's money! The child isn't even a month old yet, and you're already coveting the Gu Corporation's shares. Imagine what it will be like when he grows up!"
"Greedy for the Gu Family's money? Hahaha!" Gu Xiaoyue seemed to have heard some huge joke. She opened her brain and tapped in a few numbers.
Mu Qingning's brain beeped, "One billion star coins have been credited to your account."
The pet beasts, spirit plants, spirit springs, and attribute jewelry in Gu Xiaoyue's Yu Beast Space—if she wanted to sell them, earning tens of billions of star coins would be easy. Even saying she was now worth hundreds of billions wouldn't be an exaggeration.
Mu Qingning was startled. She opened her brain and carefully counted how many zeros there were.
After counting, she looked at Gu Xiaoyue with some feigned anger, "This child, keep the star coins for yourself; you need to spend them to raise your pet beasts!"
Gu Xiaoyue stepped forward and took her hand, "Mom, these star coins are for you to recuperate and for my little brother. I want you all to have the best!"
Subsequently, Gu Xiaoyue turned to Gu Qi and Shen Jiajing, "In the future, don't talk about us competing for the family property. I can make it so the Gu Family has no property left to compete for!"
Gu Yongze's face turned even darker, while Gu Qi rolled up his sleeves, making a move to get physical with Gu Xiaoyue. How dare she make such a ruthless threat? Just because she had one billion, she thought she could bankrupt the Gu Family? She really needed a lesson!
Before Gu Qi could act, Chu Li, who was on the side, spoke up.
"Coming to visit Xiao Yue's home today, only to hear some of the Gu Family's domestic affairs, is truly a bit presumptuous. As Uncle Gu said, I have a good relationship with Xiao Yue, and I certainly won't stand by and watch her get bullied."
Hearing this, Gu Qi snorted and sat back down.
Gu Yongze's eyes brightened slightly; it seemed that the weight of Gu Xiaoyue in Chu Li's heart was indeed not low.
It seemed he needed to find an opportunity to meet with the head of the Chu family and settle the matter between the two children.
Gu Yongze tactically cleared his throat, "Although the Gu Corporation is under my name, it is not mine alone; there are many other shareholders. I cannot make the decision on the shares alone. Why don't you move back first, and once everything is settled, I will give you the share transfer contract."
Gu Xiaoyue smiled like a flower, "Then the Gu Family Head better hurry up and prepare. Once my brother reaches his first month, I plan to take Mom and Dad with me to Kyoto!"
"You are studying at Nanya; why are you going to Kyoto?" Shen Jiajing, being quick-tongued, asked immediately.
"I entered the National Team as the first-place winner of the National Competition. Naturally, I have to go to Kyoto for training. As for Nanya, they will certainly prioritize the National Team's affairs."
Shen Jiajing rolled her eyes twice and continued to ask, "Then what about this house—?"
Gu Xiaoyue knew what she was planning and shrugged, saying, "Of course, I'll sell it! To prevent you from thinking I will compete for the Gu Family's property, I have two plans for you to choose from—"
