Chapter 78

Qin Zhao was being pushed in by Xiao Ning when an irritable male voice came from behind: "Good dog, don't block the way!"

Xiao Ning and Qin Zhao turned around and looked coldly at the newcomer.

It turned out to be Ye Chenxi charging towards them in his luxurious wheelchair!

Following behind him was Xu Yiyang, his eyes eagerly anticipating the scene he had imagined in his mind.

Just before Ye Chenxi was about to crash into Qin Zhao, Xiao Ning reacted swiftly and slammed the door shut!

Ye Chenxi crashed straight into the door, his features squashed flat against the glass like a pancake, drawing raucous laughter from everyone in the conference room!

The one laughing the loudest was none other than Qin Zhao. "Hahahaha! Ye Chenxi, you idiot! Are you here to be a clown?"

Qin Zhao's ridicule triggered another wave of mocking laughter towards Ye Chenxi.

Nan Yue saw how gleefully unreserved Qin Zhao was laughing and felt both angry and anxious!

She was angry that Qin Zhao was clearly fine yet didn't contact her for over ten days, leaving her fretting endlessly.

But she was also eager to see Qin Zhao alone so she could punish her!

Xu Yiyang's face darkened as he went to help Ye Chenxi up.

"Get lost!" Ye Chenxi yelled in exasperation. "I can get up myself!"

Xu Yiyang could only back away and wait for Ye Chenxi to laboriously get back into his wheelchair before pushing him into the conference room.

As they passed Qin Zhao, Ye Chenxi couldn't resist his nasty habit of sneering as he glanced at her wheelchair.

He thought Qin Zhao's legs were both disabled, even more pitiful than him.

He taunted, "Well, well, look at you now. Doesn't feel good to be crippled right? Want me to give you some tips? Although I'm slightly better off than you, just missing my calves, hahaha!"

Qin Zhao looked at Ye Chenxi as if he were an idiot. The corner of her mouth twitched as she thought, which backwater hill did this clown crawl out from?

She stood up and walked smugly back and forth in front of Ye Chenxi.

Ye Chenxi was so angry he sputtered incoherently, "Qin Zhao, you shameless woman! How dare a perfectly healthy person like you sit in a wheelchair and pretend to be disabled to gain sympathy!"

Qin Zhao ignored him and sat back down nonchalantly.

Ye Chenxi simmered in anger as he found a seat at the conference table with Xu Yiyang on his right.

Their gazes simultaneously turned towards Nan Yue, while Nan Yue's eyes remained fixed on Qin Zhao, her brows slightly furrowed.

This filled them both with resentment!

Xiao Ning whispered in Qin Zhao's ear, "Sister Qin, I see your abdomen is bleeding!"

Qin Zhao glanced down at the small stained area on her shirt which had turned brown from the original blue due to blood and replied, "It's nothing, don't worry about it." 𝖋𝖗𝖊𝖊𝔴𝖊𝖇𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖊𝖑.𝖈𝖔𝖒

The blood groove on Nan Yue's dagger made the wound hard to heal, so Qin Zhao was using the wheelchair to avoid agitating it with too much movement.

Thinking of this, Qin Zhao mentally tallied Ye Chenxi another demerit.

Xiao Ning added, "It looks like Miss Nan noticed too and seems quite concerned about you."

Qin Zhao looked up and happened to meet Nan Yue's worried gaze. She smiled at her to indicate she was fine.

Nan Yue looked away without continuing to watch Qin Zhao, obviously somewhat angry.

Qin Zhao pressed her lips, thinking she would explain things to Nan Yue after the meeting ended.

At the same time, in Nan Chenghui's hospital room.

"Chairman Nan, the board meeting is about to start. Let me help you sit up to watch it," his secretary said.

When Nan Chenghui moved slightly, his whole body began to itch and ache indescribably!

He waved his hand. "No need, just turn up the volume and describe the important scenes verbally."

"Yes, sir."

In the conference room, once everyone was seated, the host announced, "Those who intend to run for Chairman, please come up and give your speech."

Murmurs circulated as a few minutes later, Li Shuyun walked up to the podium next to the host.

She got straight to the point. "Good morning directors and shareholders, I am Li Shuyun..."

Her speech was very simple - asking everyone to vote for her. Qin Zhao found it rather amusing to listen to.

It was obvious she was just going through the motions, but the confidence in her words could not be ignored.

It seems she had already formed alliances with certain people.

After her, two other people gave speeches, but they were just there to pad the numbers, probably wanting to experience running for Chairman.

Yet they still rambled on at length, nearly putting Qin Zhao to sleep.

Shen Yixuan patted Qin Zhao and said, "Pay attention, how can you be so negligent in this situation?"

Qin Zhao opened her eyes a little and looked at Shen Yixuan. "How many shares did you buy?"

Shen Yixuan replied in a low voice, "I used all my spare cash to buy in, around 3.2%."

Qin Zhao marveled, "Chairman Shen is quite generous!"

Shen Yixuan rolled her eyes at her. "It's because I trust you. If I don't make money in the end, see how I'll deal with you!"

"Ha, you don't need to worry about that. Under my leadership, Nan Group will surely rise again."

Shen Yixuan was somewhat surprised. "You're that confident you'll definitely become Chairman?"

"Mm-hmm."

"Then I can rest assured."

Qin Zhao paused the conversation. "Alright, enough chatter. Watch Nan Yue."

Nan Yue stood at the podium, raising the microphone slightly. Just as she was about to speak, a whistle sounded!

"Tsk tsk, so Miss Nan knows how to run a company too. What a rare event! Dare I ask Miss, do you know what positions the company has and what each does?"

The person who uttered those mocking sounds sat to the right of Ye Chenxi, clearly one of his people!

Nan Yue didn't explain, only said, "Whether or not I know how to run a company has no bearing on me standing here. But you, a maggot crawling out of the sewer, probably only have this one chance to speak to me, yet you don't cherish it. I feel sad for you."

That man's face instantly turned red and he didn't dare look at Nan Yue again.

Ye Chenxi was also furious at this!

Nan Yue ignored the strange looks and began speaking. "In the past few months, Nan Group has experienced several stock price fluctuations. It urgently needs a new leader to inject fresh blood and regain market confidence in the group."

When Older Zhang heard the word "fresh," he associated it with his own aged and decrepit self.

He thought Nan Yue was taking the chance to mock them old folks for occupying the young people's positions!

He immediately flew into a rage and interrupted, "Miss Nan, don't forget you're also to blame for the stock price drops!

You fooling around with a woman of unknown origin damaged the group's public image!

What right do you have to say such sanctimonious things?

Get down, we don't welcome you!"

Qin Zhao: collateral damage while lying down.

The surrounding elders immediately chimed in agreement, "Get down! Get down!!"

The host, keen to watch the drama unfold, also didn't stop them.

Ah!

A scream pierced the tense air, silencing everyone as they looked towards the screamer!
