Chapter 425: Leaving abroad?

Mr. Su quickly stepped out of the conference room as soon as the meeting ended. The glow on his face was unmistakable.

In the meeting, it was decided that Jinhai would step down, and Mr. Long, the executive head of the Marketing department, would take over but not without Liu Hai instructing that his performance would be monitored as well. If he found any discrepancy, then they would have to answer him accordingly.

Xin will still be the assistant to Mr. Long since he worked the closest to Jinhai and knew the ins and outs.

Mr. Su excitedly dialed a number. It rang for five seconds before somebody picked it up.

“Hm.”

Mr. Su once glanced here and there and checked that he was all alone.

“Mr. Pei Yuan. Our plan was a success. Liu Jinhai will step down from his CEO position, and the man we chose will replace him.”

Pei Yuan from the other end sneered. Just as expected and planned, Jinhai had to give up his position.

He had bribed Mr. Su, Mr. Tan, and Mr. Chao to put forth the idea and convince the other board of directors to throw Jinhai out of Liu Corps. Of course, he paid a hefty sum of money in their bank accounts.

Once Jinhai was down, it was his win. Mr. Long was also on his side and was a puppet of the three directors. If he takes the seat, then Liu Corps control would be practically in their hands, which the directors wanted it too for such a long time.

Who didn’t desire to be in charge of such a prestigious company? And when the time comes for Jinhai to be back, it would be already too late.

Pei Yuan smiled. I have reached a step closer to my revenge…Mom.

“Hm. Keep me updating. Once that Long or whatever takes the seat, call me back.”

“Yes, Mr. Pei,” Mr. Su chuckled.

Nana hurriedly wheeled the stroller into the study where Jinhai and Liu Jinhai were already there.

Jian and Nian were staring at their mother, who seemed anxious and worried.

“Baaabaaa…”

“Aboooo…?”

Nana simply smiled at them. She opened the door and exclaimed. “Dad!”

Jinhai and Liu Hai raised their heads. “Ah, my dear daughter-in-law. Come, come.”

“That…is it true what I heard? Is Jinhai no more the CEO?”

Liu Hai sighed while Jinhai didn’t have much change in his expression.

“I did my best, but more than half of the board of the directors voted against Jinhai.”

Nana felt truly sad. She knew the situation was serious but didn’t imagine that Jinhai would have to really give up his seat.

She pursed her lips. “Is there any solution?”

“Well, we can only wait for the situation to die down a bit. Maybe…” Liu Hai glanced between Jinhai and Nana, “Jinhai may also have to leave abroad for a while so that his presence is minimized. That will help us more in managing the situation.”

Jinhai slightly widened his eyes and glanced at his father, but Liu Hai didn’t look back at him.

Nana froze. She rapidly blinked her eyes. Her hands tightened on the stroller. “L-leave abroad?”

Liu Hai nodded. “En. You see, out of sight is out of mind? Something along those lines.”

Nana’s heart sped faster in her chest.

Doesn’t that mean that Jinhai won’t live here from now on?

Jinhai narrowed his eyes at her reaction. It was so clearly etched on her face that she didn’t want that solution.

His gaze glinted with a meaningful light. “I think what Dad said is the only option left for me. I may have to leave.”

Nana bit down on her lower lip.

“Maybe a month…”

Nana was starting to sweat. Jinhai observed her every facial expression.

“Or it could take up to as long as six months too.”

Then her face paled.

Six months!? That long?

Liu Hai inwardly grinned. He felt sorry for her, but honestly, he was enjoying Jinhai teasing her.

Jinhai’s gaze dimmed. “Of course, it wouldn’t be too difficult for you, right? To live without me? After all, you already hate living with me under one roof…”

Nana exclaimed. “T-that!”

Well, even if she had been living with the Liang family, it was still different from Jinhai leaving for abroad.

Jinhai sadly smiled. “I think this would make you the happiest, right? I think I should make arrangements for abroad.”

“No!”

Nana blurted out in haste. True, she was still angry at him for the custody matter but living apart for six months or maybe more was a different issue altogether.

“Why not?”

Nana’s mouth twitched.

Jinhai meaningfully smiled. “Will you miss me?”

“Boooooooo…” Jian giggled.

Nana jolted. “The twins…yes, the twins!”

Jinhai said, “Surely I will miss them, but I know that you would take good care of them. Mom, Dad, and Grandma are there too.”

Nana was feeling anxious.

Is he really serious about leaving here? If he left, then when would I see him again?

“Ah, I remembered now! Chunhua had called me. It completely slipped off my mind. I will go before she gets angry at me hehe…” Liu Hai quickly stood and left.

“D-dad wait…”

Liu Hai even closed the door behind him and whistled. “Ho Ho. A little alone time for them. Hah! I am such an awesome father.”

Inside the study, Nana asked, “Is it really necessary for you to go?”

Jinhai stared at her for a second before he got up. He slowly walked towards her. He kept his hand on the stroller and leaned near her ear. “Why? Didn’t you resent me living with you? It’s a good chance now. Actually, hasn’t the situation come in quite your favor?”

Nana stuttered. “T-that…I don’t mean that you have to leave.”

Jinhai leaned and softly placed his lips on the corner of her lips. Nana jolted a bit. “Say Nana…” he huskily whispered as he traced the tip of his nose against her cheek until he reached her ear.

“Say that you don’t want me to leave.”
