I am not just a tycoon-Chapter 692 - 420 MVP, Bootlicking Studies, Anti-Tiangang_2

Ji Ya's cheeks were red, and she remained silent until Shen Yuan left, then slowly opened the hidden column.

What Shen Yuan didn't know was that the hidden column prominently displayed the name "Ji Ya".

Once unveiled, "Ji Ya" soared to the top of the list.

The label for the first place was golden, something she had deliberately designed, somewhat resembling the MVP insignia.

"Sorry, boss, if I put myself on there, you might just decide to control the frequency of your, let's say, 'visits' to me."

Ji Ya murmured to herself.

Shen Yuan went down to the fitness area on B1, warmed up briefly, jogged for 30 minutes, lifted barbells and dumbbells for 15 minutes, followed by 15 minutes of high-intensity equipment, and finally ended his workout drenched in sweat.

Back on the first floor, Ji Ya approached him and said, "Boss, the director of Chenlang Law Firm and two senior partners have already arrived."

Shen Yuan wiped his face with a towel: "Okay, have them wait in the reception area, I'll take a shower and change clothes."

"Understood."

Half an hour later, Shen Yuan, now in casual attire, met with three attorneys, smartly dressed in suits, in the reception room.

Seeing Shen Yuan, all three stood up in unison: "Mr. Shen, good afternoon, sorry to disturb you."

"It's fine."

Shen Yuan waved his hand, then the man in his fifties at the center stepped forward: "Hello Mr. Shen, I am the director of Chenlang Law Firm, my name is Mao Mingcheng."

"Hello, Attorney Mao."

"Mr. Shen, hello, I am a senior partner at Chenlang Law Firm, Zhu Sixing. I was in charge of the due diligence and investigation last time at Sinan Club and the golf course."

"Hello, Attorney Zhu."

"Hello Mr. Shen, I am..."

The three introduced themselves to Shen Yuan very politely, slightly nodding as they spoke.

Owning 23% of the law firm's shares, effectively the second-largest shareholder and essentially one of their bosses, the three of them held Shen Yuan in high regard.

"Please, have a seat."

Shen Yuan gestured with his hand.

After some initial pleasantries, Mao Mingcheng got down to business, pulling out several documents from his briefcase: "Mr. Shen, here is the share transfer agreement, the stock certificate, the company's bylaws..."

"Additionally, these are the law firm's financial statements and audit reports from the past three years..."

After signing some documents and thoroughly reviewing those that required reading, this signified that the 23% of the law firm's shares were officially vested in Shen Yuan.

"Mr. Shen, the firm will hold a shareholders' meeting next week, a welcome event organized by the directors and shareholders for you. There will also be a reelection of directors."

"Hmm, alright."

Shen Yuan had no intention of getting involved in the legal field or meddling with the law firm's management; the shareholders' meeting and the director elections were mere formalities for him, and the directorship was more of an honorary position.

Having finished with official business, the four of them started establishing personal connections, exchanging WeChat information and chatting about less formal matters.

Mainly, the two partner attorneys were engaging in flattery. Mao Mingcheng was more reserved; as the current director of the firm with an equity incentive, he was also effectively a minor shareholder and would occasionally join in the flattery.

"Attorney Mao, I have a matter I'd like to ask you about," Shen Yuan said.

"Please, Mr. Shen, go ahead."

Shen Yuan relayed the situation of Lin Yuchang and Zeng Xianyong to him, focusing on Zeng Xianyong's harassment of Lin Yuchang's parents. Of course, he selectively glossed over his own relationship with Lin Yuchang.

After listening, Mao Mingcheng slowly said, "Mr. Shen, it's hard to define whether his actions constitute harassment or provocation. It requires a specific analysis of the specific situation. It would be best to understand from the persons involved. Mr. Shen, is this Ms. Lin your friend?"

Shen Yuan nodded: "Of course, a very good friend."

"If you think highly of me, Mr. Shen, why don't you let me handle this matter?" Mao Mingcheng said earnestly.

Shen Yuan inwardly noted the law firm director indeed had some substance, clearly wanting to help him; yet he had already "competed" for the task before Shen Yuan asked.

"If Attorney Mao is willing to help, I couldn't ask for more. I'll send you Ms. Lin's contact information over WeChat."

"Of course, Director Shen."

Whether intentional or not, Mao Mingcheng had started calling him "Director" instead of "Mr. Shen", even though Shen Yuan was not yet officially a director of Chenlang Law Firm.

The two senior partners weren't shy about their expertise; it seemed there was still much to learn. This was truly the art of subtle flattery.

In comparison, my own recent praises of Mr. Shen's appearance and the decor of his villa seem utterly subpar!

After some more conversation, the three lawyers politely declined Shen Yuan's dinner invitation. Before departing, Mao Mingcheng shook Shen Yuan's hand: "Director Shen, we will promptly complete the stock transfer procedures and due diligence concerning Silver Shield Security that you have requested."

"Thank you, Attorney Mao, and thank you to all of you colleagues as well."

"It's our duty."

....

The three left with smiles on their faces, then got into the Alphard parked at the entrance. After the driver set off, Zhu Sixing in the front seat turned around and said, "Director Mao, I've learned a lot again this time; we have much to learn from you."

Mao Mingcheng smiled and replied, "Learn what from me? I'm 52 this year, I'll be retiring in a few years. You're about the same age as Mr. Shen, you should learn more from the way he conducts himself."

Zhu Sixing's mouth twitched, thinking to himself that Mr. Shen wasn't in the car, so why continue the flattery?

What a cautious old man in speaking!

Besides, are Mr. Shen's qualities something that can be learned? To own such wealth and properties at this age, how powerful must his resources and background be?

And this old man is still talking about retiring, he was just promoted to director last year, what retirement are you talking about?
