The Rise of Renxiang: Playboy CEO Has a Baby - Chapter 93

“Good afternoon. Are you Ms. Bai?” The waiter asked politely.

“Yes, I am. Good afternoon,” Bai Renxiang replied. She was skeptical about how the waiter had come to know her name until he spoke up again.

“Mr. Jiang has made reservation for you and him. He is waiting for you upstairs. This way please,” the waiter guided her to an elevator and pressed the button for the second floor.

The waiter lead her to the third room on the floor and opened the door for her to enter before he left to give them privacy.

“Grandpa, good afternoon,” she greeted. She gave him a hug and a quick peck on his cheek.

“Hahaha. My beautiful business granddaughter. You look smart and pretty,” old man Jiang commented.

Bai Renxiang was wearing a black striped office pants and white sleeveless shirt and white heels to match.

“Why thank you grandpa. By the way, why did you want us to meet? I suppose it is urgent,” she sat down opposite him.

“First of all, let us order something to ear. I know you are hungry and so am I,” old man Jiang called for the waiter to take their order.

After briefly going through the menu, they ordered Peking Roasted Duck, dumplings, oodles of noodles and green tea.

When their order was served, they ate and old man Jiang started the discussion.

“Little Ren, I wanted to meet up with you today because of something very urgent and a little bit pressing,” he began. Bai Renxiang noticed the seriousness in his voice and paid much attention as they ate.

“May I ask what it is grandpa?” Bai Renxiang asked seriously.

“Yes. I am getting there, my dear. You know I once talked about you joining the Jiang Corporation and you disagreed,” he paused.

“But this old man is not getting any younger. I want you to take over Jiang Corporation, as the CEO.”

GBAGHAN

Bai Renxiang’s hands that were holding a forked piece of the Peking Roasted Duck froze. It was like… It was more than being on shock. Mere words can not explain the current emotions running through her.

She looked at her grandfather with wide eyes. She could not believe it. She should take over his company? She, Bai Renxiang she take over Jiang Corporation? As the CEO?

“Grandpa, are you….are you serious?” She asked while still trying to phantom what she just heard.

“I am serious. I am serious to the extent that it disturbs me. You see, my nephew is the current Vice president of the company and he and his father has been vying for the position of CEO, which I kept for your mother.” Old man Jiang’s face now is devoid of expression. He had his poker face on.

“My junior brother disagreed to my decision because your mother, Jiang Meilin is not my daughter. Me and your grandmother adopted her when she could not bear a child,” he sighed and placed a dumpling in his mouth.

This revelation caused the recovering Bai Renxiang to go back into shock. Her mother is an adopted child.

‘Why did no one tell me about it? No wonder they did not want her to take over the company,’ Bai Renxiang reasoned in her head.

“My brother, Jiang Xue wanted his son to take over the business instead. Your mother herself did not want anything to do with the business either. She even ran away with that Bai Guiren and got married to him,” old man Jiang said in slight anger.

“Instead of going with my brother’s own idea, I decided to keep the seat of CEO for Meilin’s child, which is you my dear,” he smiled at her.

“I have held on for so long. I only let my nephew take care of things in the company as the vice and not the president. I want you to be the CEO,” he concluded.

Bai Renxiang was speechless. Although the quiet brief, she still could not grasp everything.

“Grandpa I…I do not want anything to do with family business. I said that before also. I am tired of struggling or fighting over the seat of CEO,” she disagreed.

“Also, I am not capable of running an entire company. I am just a finance employee. I have no idea of how to run a company,” Bai Renxiang tried to find ways to dodge the position.

“I knew you would not agree to it. But think about your son, my great-grandson,” old man y said. He had already thought of her reply and what to make her think twice before rejecting the seat. Seeing as she had become silent because she was thinking about what he just said, he proceeded to sat more.

“Do you not want him to live a good life? Remember that you do not have someone apart from your mother and I to lean on it to share your burden. Think about it carefully. Bai Xiaojin deserves much more than he has,” he said.

“I am not sure of it grandpa. I do not think I am ready for it. I just do not want to be the anything yo to with family business. Call me selfish but that is what I want,” Bai Renxiang said.

“I know my dear. I know. I just want you to give it a thorough thought. Remember that I am always there for you and your mother and son,” he patted her hand over the table.

“I know grandpa and I am very grateful for that. I should be heading back now the break will soon be over,” she said at she looked at the wristwatch on her wrist to check the time. She picked her purse walked round the table to hug him again.

“Alright dear. Have a safe trip back and please think of our discussion today, okay?”

Alright grandpa see you around later in the week. Bye,” she waved and left the room.. She heaved a sigh as soon as she left the suite.
