Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Wen Yanqing favored Aunt Zhong for her discretion.

She held her tongue where she was supposed to and shared what she could or was expected of her, partly due to Wen Yanqing’s instructions.

Both parents of the parties involved knew about the relationship. Everything had been conducted open and above board. Aunt Zhong picked out the salient points and said, “There’s nothing to worry about. They’re living together, and they seem close.”

They probably slept together, but Aunt Zhong did not wish to speculate on a private matter.

“Lin Mingzhuo agreed to allow it?” Wen Rendong asked.

“What’s so strange about it? Isn’t it common for young people to live together nowadays? Now, Miss Lin has company. The house will be more lively with the two living together.”

Wen Rendong had further questions but was interrupted by the phone ringing.

It was a call from those old fossils helming the group. He had stepped down from the position as CEO a long time ago, so why were they looking for him now? Wen Rendong frowned and answered the call.

He listened to the spokesperson. What was said to Wen Rendong over the phone was unknown, but it was enough to cause his frown to deepen. Finally, he answered, “I don’t care about the company’s matters. Yanqing can do whatever he wants. If you have the time to call me, wouldn’t it be better to think of a way to convince him yourself? Don’t bother looking for me in the future.”

He hung up.

Shengfang Group.

The shareholders’ meeting was in progress.

Fang Wanhui’s expression darkened when Wen Rendong hung up on him. He glanced at Du Xun, the two exchanging looks.

More than a dozen middle and high-level personnel of the Shengfang group, including senior executives of local branches and core business managers, had issued a joint petition demanding the dismissal of the current chairmen, Fang Wanhui and Du Xun.

The joint letter listed several of Fang Wanhui’s crimes, including going against the company’s interests, abusing power to eliminate dissidents, and his incompetence. Meanwhile, Du Xun was charged with wielding executive power beyond that of the board of directors, authorizing the transfer of equity at will, and deliberately lowering the company’s share price, which seriously damaged and infringed upon the company’s interests. The two of them were asked to resign or, failing that, be dismissed in disgrace.

Fang Wanhui was from the same generation as Wen Rendong. He had been a director of the Shengfang Group for many years and gained corresponding benefits with his position. How could he accept his loss of status so easily?

“I don’t plead guilty, Wen Yanqing. Don’t think I don’t know that you wrote this letter,” Fang Wanhui growled.

“The contents of the letter can be verified easily. You know better than me whether I’ve wronged you or not,” Wen Yanqing said.

“The one who wants to eradicate dissidents is you, Wen Yanqing!” Fang Wanhui stood up and pointed at him. “Since you took over the Shengfang Group, you’ve been swallowing up the company’s shares, trying to usurp control. Tell me, of those who’ve left, Old Qian, Ning Chang… Weren’t they both your doing?” “Control? I already do. I hold more than half of the company’s shares. It’s my right to dictate the company’s direction.” Despite being on the receiving end of those questions, Wen Yanqing remained calm. “This isn’t about me. It’s about you and Mr. Du. There’s no point in arguing. The shareholders’ meeting will conclude with them exercising their voting rights.”

Wen Yanqing motioned for Yi Qian to hand over a few things to each director. A thick stack of paper detailed Fang Wanhui and Du Xun’s actions.

Du Xun’s hands and feet grew weak the further he read. Fang Wanhui’s face was as black as charcoal. “What is all this? Just because you say we’re at fault doesn’t mean we are!”

“I knew you’d both quibble, but that’s fine. The rest of the board will determine the authenticity of the evidence. Not only will both of you be removed from your positions, but you’ll also be held accountable for all the damage you’ve done,” Wen Yanqing pronounced. “If it becomes necessary, I’ll even file a lawsuit against the two of you. At which point, you can explain yourselves to the police and await judgment.”

Fang Wanhui did not dare to admit his guilt. He tried to win the trust of the other directors and said, “Everyone here should know that Wen Yanqing wanted to deal with me today because I helped the Lin family’s opponent. His girlfriend is the daughter of the Lin Group. He’s the one who’s used his power for personal gain!”

The rest of the board of directors whispered to one another..
