Ye Shu gathered her thoughts and asked loudly, "Chen Lao Hui, do you think your CEO is a fool?"
Chen Lao Hui said, "I don’t mean that!"
"You’re lying; you clearly think he’s a fool, or else why would you arrange for me to chair this meeting, right? You think he’s a fool, that’s why you dare to repeatedly, in front of so many people, openly defy his wishes and even incite others to rebel with you!"
"You—" Chen Lao Hui was so stumped by Ye Shu’s retort he couldn’t utter another word; after a long stare, he finally said, "What a sharp-tongued lass, but chairing a meeting isn’t just about being good at talking smack. If you’re so capable, why don’t you recover that 6-point drop in the Group’s stock? If you can do that, I’ll be impressed! Otherwise, don’t embarrass yourself by interrupting when men are talking!"
"Hmph, fine, I’ll impress you right now!" Ye Shu’s determination flared, and no one could hold her back, "But before that, I’d like to ask a few questions."
"Hmph, a few questions? Even if it were dozens, I’d stick it out to the end!" Chen Lao Hui said with a disdainful look.
"Very well!" Ye Shu scanned all the participants in the meeting room through the video feed and asked, "Secretary, are all the shareholders of Shengshi Group present for today’s meeting?"
"CEO’s wife, everyone is here, not a single one is missing!" the secretary replied.
Ye Shu nodded, "Then here comes the first question: I would like to ask the shareholders present, did you come to this extraordinary general meeting spontaneously, as if by telepathy, or did you arrange in advance to force the CEO to call this emergency shareholder meeting?"
As soon as the first question was raised, the atmosphere in the conference room became strangely tense, and the colors of the shareholders’ faces changed.
Chen Lao Hui snorted, "Nonsense, everyone came of their own accord. What’s so strange about that? Seeing the stock falling, wouldn’t everyone be anxious?"
"You—Are—Lying!" Ye Shu immediately retorted loudly, "Chen Lao Hui, it’s fine if you’re foolish, but you think your boss is as foolish as you? Even a woman like me can figure it out, why are you bothering to cover it up? You’re usually scattered around different corners of the world, and Shengshi Group’s stock only started to drop today. Yet you all managed to arrive here so swiftly; do you think airplanes are time machines that can get you here the moment you say so? It would take at least two days to fly in from different places before you could sit together for a chat!"
Hearing this, Chen Lao Hui became agitated and said, "You brat, what are you trying to say? Why obsess over this question?"
"Don’t be in such a hurry, Chen Lao Hui, you’ll have time to be anxious in a moment. I’m going to ask my second question now," Ye Shu said with a slight smile. "Mr. Chen Lao Hui, could you discuss your recent economic condition?"
"Hey, girl, why do you keep asking these irrelevant questions? If you’ve got something to say, just say it!"
"That’s right, we shareholders are all big business people, we don’t have so much time to waste here!"
One after another, the shareholders couldn’t help but complain to Ye Shu.
"Don’t worry, I’ll be done with my questions shortly," Ye Shu continued, staring at Chen Lao Hui. "Chen Lao Hui, can you talk about your recent economic condition?"
