The Policewoman Chapter 304

At half past eight the next morning, Song Linna appeared on time at the office of the former Chairman of the Board, Song Mingyuan, in the separate office building of the Mingyuan Group of Companies.

She had just settled down in the boss’s chair that her father had used during his lifetime when Sun Li, the chairman’s secretary, knocked on the door and entered.

Song Lina glanced at her and said, “Secretary Sun, you’re just in time, go and inform the company’s board members to meet in the conference room at nine in the morning.”

“Yes, I’ll go and inform everyone now,” Sun Li bowed and said, “Miss, lawyer Li from Yanjing First Law Firm is here and says he has something to discuss with you, should I invite him in.”

“Quickly invite him in!” Song Linna said with a nod.

Sun Li went out and led Lawyer Li into the office, and after making tea for Song Linna and Lawyer Li respectively, she consciously withdrew from the room and closed the door for them.

After arranging for Lawyer Li to sit down on one of the sofa chairs opposite her desk, Song Lina opened her mouth and asked.

“Lawyer Li, last night, we spoke on the phone and said that my father had a will in your hands, what is this all about?”

“It’s like this,” Lawyer Li quickly handed a dossier to Song Linna and said, “Some time ago, Chairman Song said he was not feeling well and was going to hand over the company to you, so he asked me privately to make this will, please look at it.”

After flipping through the will in the file, Song Lina looked at the wall clock and said to Lawyer Li.

“It is now eight fifty, you will now accompany me to the company board meeting and please read this will out to everyone.”

“Okay, everything is at Missy’s command.”

Lawyer Li was the permanent legal advisor of the Mingyuan Group of Companies and a good friend of Song Mingyuan.

Over the years, the two had built up a deep friendship and he had always referred to Song Lina respectfully as Missy, and even after Song Mingyuan’s death, he continued to follow this title and supported her as he always had.

……

The large conference room of the Mingyuan Group of Companies was spacious and bright, with thick red carpets, cream-coloured walls, magnificent crystal ceiling lights, and conference tables and chairs made of sandalwood, making it extraordinarily luxurious and grand.

There were many people in the meeting room, all members of the board of directors of the group, who had come to attend the first meeting of the directors organised by Song Lina, the former chairman’s daughter.

Everyone took their seats on both sides of the rectangular conference table. Among them, the middle-aged man sitting in the first position on the left was Liu Xiangdong, the deputy general manager of the Mingyuan Group of Companies.

The atmosphere in the room was a little tense, with everyone whispering and staring wistfully at the teal gla*s door in front of the door with anticipation.

The door was pushed open by the chairman’s secretary, Sun Li, and two figures were reflected in everyone’s eyes one after another.

The one in the lead was Song Lina, and right behind her was the legal advisor of the Mingyuan Group, lawyer Li from the No. 1 law firm in Yanjing.

“Ah? Why is Lawyer Li here?” Liu Xiangdong’s eyebrows unconsciously wrinkled, he originally thought that he was old in qualifications and a major shareholder in the company, so once Song Mingyuan died, if through the way the board members voted, everyone would definitely elect him as the chairman of the group company, but unexpectedly, Lawyer Li was invited by Song Lina to attend the company’s directors’ meeting, he was a little upset in his heart and secretly thought, “What is Song Lina’s What kind of medicine is she selling in her gourd?”

With delicate steps, Song Linna walked with her head held high to the chairman’s seat at the conference table and sat down.

Li was sitting to her right, just opposite Liu Xiangdong, who gave him a fierce glare, but Li pretended not to see anything.

There was a lot of cross talk.

“Silence!” Sun Li, the chairman’s secretary, announced loudly after taking the seat next to Song Lina, “The meeting begins, the chairman of the board will speak next.”

“The chairman of the board? Chairman Song Mingyuan has just pa*sed away and has not yet pa*sed the voting election, how did she become the chairman of the group company?” Everyone looked at each other and the meeting room became quiet.

Song Lina scanned all those present, cleared her throat and began to speak.

“Everyone here, you are all my father’s old men, old employees of the company, who once contributed to the construction and development of the Mingyuan Group of Companies and made great contributions, and I would like to express my gratitude to you on behalf of my late father.

“Today, I invite you all to this meeting, firstly, I want to inform you of the decision to appoint the chairman of the company, and secondly, I want to discuss with you the future prospects of our company. I would like to ask the company’s legal advisor, lawyer Li, to read out my father’s will …… ”

Lawyer Li stood up from his position and took out a copy of Song Mingyuan’s will, which he had left behind during his lifetime and signed with his own handwriting, and read it aloud to all present, saying.

“Due to ill health, I have decided to transfer all my property in the name of the company to my daughter, Song Lina, and to let her take over the position of chairman ……”

After reading out the will, lawyer Li resumed his seat and Song Lina asked her secretary Sun Li to distribute copies of this will to every board member present.

Perhaps by coincidence, some time ago, Song Mingyuan felt unwell and went to the hospital for a check-up and was told that he had liver cancer, and that it was at an advanced stage.

This was tantamount to announcing his death. Knowing that his days were numbered and not wanting to worry his family, he did not tell them and secretly found lawyer Li to make this will.

Little did he know that he would be taken out by his own driver and bodyguard at his father’s house, and this will came in handy.

The will came as a shock to the board members present, as they had not expected Song Mingyuan to make this will before his death, and some even doubted its authenticity.

However, the will was signed by Song Mingyuan and was read out from the mouth of the company’s permanent legal advisor, so it had legal effect.

In addition, Song Linna was Song Mingyuan’s legal heir, so it was only logical that she should succeed her as chairman of the company, and no one had any objections.

The key was whether Song Linna, who was so young and usually playful, would be able to take on the role of chairman and whether she would be able to focus on the development and management of the company.

So, the eyes of the crowd were focused on Song Lina.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her with expectant eyes, Song Lina said loudly, “Please rest a*sured that I will not fail my father’s expectations of me, I will inherit his legacy and work together with everyone to carry the company forward ……”

After Song Lina’s words were spoken, the conference room resounded with a round of applause.

Everyone applauded, except for deputy general manager Liu Xiangdong who looked at Song Lina with a disdainful look of disbelief and an expression of jealousy and wrath in his heart.
