Xiao Ziyi tugged on her father’s pant leg, a worried look on her face.
“Daddy, you have to help Auntie Ruoxue!”
Su Ruoxue was her closest auntie. She helped her learn to speak and bought her yummy food. From the bottom of her heart, Xiao Ziyi treated Su Ruoxue as her best friend.
Xiao Chen saw Su Ruoxue as his friend as well.
She was the one who helped him find his daughter, and she’d also cared for Xiao Ziyi a considerable amount, helping her out of the darkness in a timely manner.
Otherwise, Xiao Chen wouldn’t have given her the formulas.
Plus, Xiao Chen found the act of betrayal unacceptable.
He took a deep breath and called out:
“Get out of the car!”
“Huh?”
Su Ruoxue’s eyes were still red as she looked at Xiao chen blankly. What did he want?
Xiao Chen frowned and continued, looking slightly unhappy.
“Do you not understand? Get out!”
Su Ruoxue stepped out of the car, feeling confused. Xiao Chen dragged her into his own car and snapped. Immediately, Qi Sha appeared in the driver’s seat.
“To the Su Cosmetics company.”
“Yes, sir!”
Qi Sha stepped on the gas as soon as he received the instructions. In a few minutes, they were outside the Su corporation.
Su Ruoxue was stunned, unsure of what would happen next.
“Xiao Chen, what… what are you planning to do?”
“I’m gonna help you take back your company.”
He then helped his daughter off the car and entered the building. After a short delay, Su Ruoxue hurriedly followed after him, too.
In the same conference room, the meeting was not over. Everyone had cast their votes for a new CEO, and the outcome had been the old man who’d harassed Su Ruoxue earlier—Director Shi!
At this moment, everyone was deploying their maximum flattery skills and charm.
“Thank god for Diretor Shi for coming up with such a cunning strategy. The company is finally in our hands now!”
“That Su Ruoxue was no match for us to begin with. She’s just a silly girl. When we financed the capital, it was out of our desire to be close to a beautiful woman. Who’d have thought that this girl would not let up! She dared to toss us directors aside and ignore us!”
“Now that she’s no longer the CEO, everyone should find a way to get some fake reports to pry the shares from her hands, hehehe… Then, she will have nothing at all!”
“It seems experience still comes with age. Such a great corporation, such a fat profit, and it’s all ours! Su Ruoxue worked in vain for nothing all those years… Count it as her working for us, hahaha…”
As they laughed wildly, a loud bang suddenly sounded. The thick door of the conference room had been kicked open.
“Whoosh—!”
The sound was quite loud, and it startled those inside the room.
“F*ck, who kicked the door down?”
As soon as his words were said, Xiao Chen casually strode into the conference room with Ziyi in his arms, and Su Ruoxue and Qi Sha on each of his sides
“Su Ruoxue!”
The directors squinted their eyes. The newly elected CEO, Director Shi, couldn’t help but chuckle to himself.
“Su Ruoxue, what is the meaning of this? Are you trying to get violent with me? Get this in your head—that’s illegal!”
“That’s right. You better apologize to us right now, or else we’ll call the security!”
Xiao Chen walked up to the conference table and stared at Director Shi right in the eyes.
“Are you the one who’s going to call security?”
Director Shi laughed coldly, tilting his chin up.
“What are you gonna do about it?”
Before he could finish his sentence, Xiao Chen’s foot was already on his chest, sending him flying.
“Whoosh—!”
The kick was unusually powerful. With one gesture, Xiao Chen had kicked out several of his ribs, leaving him to die on the spot.
“Who else wants to call security? Stand up!”
The entire conference room erupted into chaos.
“You heathen, where do you think you are?”
…
“Get the hell out of here before things get serious!”
…
“Don’t waste your words with him. Leave him to the security guards to deal with. How dare he break into the company and purposefully make trouble!”
…
Without a word, one of the directors stood up and began to dial a number into his cell phone.
Before Xiao Chen could issue the command, Qi Sha glided over and lifted the man’s chair, smashing it straight down.
Thump—!
After a loud crunch sounded, the entire conference room went silent.
Everyone gulped. They looked at the breathless director on the floor and couldn’t help but feel an electrifying shock.
Xiao Chen’s arrogance and deadly hand was enough to petrify them all.
Even if they were idiots, they weren’t going to cry out now.
Xiao Chen glanced at the directors in the room before picking up Xiao Ziyi again. He sat down and crossed his legs before letting out snicker.
“A bunch of greedy old dogs!”
The directors were terrified as they looked towards Director Shi. He had become the backbone for everyone!
Director Shi squinted his eyes and clenched his fists. He was fuming with anger but did not let it show.
“There is no issue between me and this lord, right? Why has this lord come to trouble me?”
Xiao Chen’s gaze was terribly ice cold, like the twelfth lunar season. When he looked over at the clever old fox, Director Shi couldn’t help but be shocked.
Absolutely terrifying!
“I don’t need an excuse to find trouble.”
His arrogance made Director Shi’s face twitch in annoyance.
He tightened his fists and snorted softly before saying:
“Young lord, must you be so rash in your decisions?”
Xiao Chen chuckled coldly.
“You stole my friend’s company, is that rash enough? I don’t want to waste my words with you. I’ll give you two options right now.”
He put up one finger.
“Option one. Unconditionally, hand over all your shares. Then, cut off a finger each and apologize to my friend.”
Then, he put up another finger.
“Option two. I throw you all out of this building right now. I’m running low on time, you have ten seconds to decide.”
The directors shivered as they all looked towards Director Shi.
“Director Shi, what do we do?!”
Director Shi looked at the others nonchalantly.
“What are you worried for? You’re all a bunch of good for nothing idiots. There’s so many of us here, are you really afraid of one person?”
After pausing for a moment, he then looked Xiao chen up and down. He placed both arms on the table and said gloomily:
“Young lord, there’s no need to stir your anger! In the end, it’s all about money, isn’t it? Su Ruoxue can afford it—we will then pay twice that amount. Sir, why don’t you think about that?”
Xiao Chen thought for a moment, then spoke confidently:
“Ten!”
Director Shi was in no position to negotiate with him.
He felt his face twitch fervently.
This guy did not even consider him an opponent!
“Young lord, why are you so aggressive? If you really kill all of us, you will be causing yourself a lot of trouble.”
