As soon as Ye Xunhuan spoke, the room, which had been filled with joy and exclamation, suddenly fell silent. Everyone couldn't help but focus their eyes on Yang Jingzhou.
At this moment, the silence was so profound that you could hear a pin drop!
If it were any other day, being watched by so many people would have been a good thing for Yang Jingzhou. But now, it felt as if countless silent slaps were hitting his face.
They made no sound, yet they stung painfully.
The moment Victoria appeared, Yang Jingzhou already knew that Emperor Map Group was going to make a comeback, and the feeling of regret in his heart grew increasingly strong.
Unfortunately, there are no regret pills to buy in this world.
Even if he regretted it, it was too late, which filled him with hatred towards Ye Xunhuan.
Now, with Ye Xunhuan's words, Yang Jingzhou's hatred grew even deeper.
"Minister Ye, I... I knew you could do it," Yang Jingzhou said, putting on a brave face and addressing Ye Xunhuan, "You are our hero..."
"Don't change the subject. Are you jumping off the building or not?" Ye Xunhuan pressed on.
Originally, Yang Jingzhou thought that by flattering Ye Xunhuan, he could smooth over the situation. But who knew Ye Xunhuan didn't buy it at all and instead kept pressing him.
This made the forced smile on Yang Jingzhou's face immediately stiffen, and a deep-seated hatred slowly filled his eyes.
"Minister Ye, this..."
"Don't tell me you were joking with me," Ye Xunhuan interrupted him, not giving Yang Jingzhou a chance to speak. "Would you spare me and Gao Yunhu if we had lost?"
"You would definitely press us relentlessly too, wouldn't you?"
Yang Jingzhou opened his mouth, just about to say something, when Ye Xunhuan's voice came again: "Don't tell me you wouldn't do that!"
"That kind of talk might fool a three-year-old, but it doesn't work on me."
Everyone in the room fully agreed with Ye Xunhuan. If Ye Xunhuan had lost, Yang Jingzhou probably wouldn't care whether Ye Xunhuan was Qiu Ruoxi's husband and would directly ask if Ye Xunhuan was going to jump.
After all, if Ye Xunhuan failed, Qiu Ruoxi would almost certainly not become his boss, so naturally, he wouldn't have much to fear.
For a moment, Yang Jingzhou's face started to turn uncertain, and his fists clenched tightly.
Just then, Qiu Ruoxi suddenly spoke up: "That's enough, Ye Xunhuan!"
Upon hearing Qiu Ruoxi's words and seeing her frosty face, Ye Xunhuan grunted unhappily.
"Yang Jingzhou, I hope to see your resignation letter on my desk tomorrow," Qiu Ruoxi said coldly.
With these words, Qiu Ruoxi practically ousted Yang Jingzhou from Emperor Map Group.
Yang Jingzhou took a deep breath, "I will!"
"Alright, from now on, Gao Yunhu is the head of the Finance Department," Qiu Ruoxi announced decisively, "Also, this month, every employee in the company will receive a bonus, with a special allowance of two hundred thousand yuan for the trading team led by Gao Yunhu!"
Upon hearing Qiu Ruoxi's announcement, the formerly heavy atmosphere instantly lifted, and everyone cheered again.
Although they knew that Gao Yunhu and his team would receive the highest bonuses, they couldn't be envious, as these were achievements handled by their team.
They had no objections to others getting a significant amount, especially since Qiu Ruoxi wasn't denying them bonuses altogether.
"Additionally, I personally reward Gao Yunhu with an Audi A8!" Qiu Ruoxi stated firmly, "From now on, as long as you have the ability and the courage to push forward, I won't ask about your qualifications or age!"
"As long as you are talented, I will fully utilize you!"
Qiu Ruoxi's words caused the faces of many senior executives to change, but some employees became even more excited.
Qiu Ruoxi was implementing a reform!
This was giving young people a chance to climb up.
Ye Xunhuan looked at Qiu Ruoxi in front of him, her words ringing in his ears, and his eyes couldn't help but show appreciation.
Qiu Ruoxi's words might have upset some company leaders, but it won the hearts of countless employees, uniting them all with her.
This woman had a way of winning people's hearts!
"Additionally, today we'll get off work early, and I'm treating everyone to a meal at Dengying Tower!" Qiu Ruoxi announced again.
As soon as Qiu Ruoxi finished speaking, someone in the crowd shouted, "Long live President Qiu!"
Then everyone began to chant.
Seeing countless people cheer for Qiu Ruoxi, Ye Xunhuan couldn't help but protest, "Hey, hey, don't forget, I'm the one who won, not President Qiu. You should be thanking me and cheering for me..."
"Long live the prince consort..."
Ye Xunhuan's face turned dark immediately. Why not "Long live the Emperor" but instead "Long live the prince consort"?
In the capital city, Qin Rumeng was also paying attention to this financial battlefield. When she saw Qiu Ruoxi turn the tables, a smile slowly appeared on her face.
When Emperor Map Group was in danger, Qin Rumeng had actually mobilized a lot of funds, just waiting for Qiu Ruoxi to bow her head and ask for her help.
But who knew Qiu Ruoxi didn't come, and the bast*rd Ye Xunhuan actually took action.
This made Qin Rumeng dissatisfied even as she smiled.
"Bast*rd, when you come to the capital in a few days, see how I'll deal with you for not letting your wife come and bow to me!" Qin Rumeng said resentfully.
Although Qin Rumeng was a bit dissatisfied with Qiu Ruoxi, her niece-in-law, being Ye Xunhuan's wife, even if she was not satisfied, she had to help in times of need!
Otherwise, if Qin Fenghuang knew about it from the underworld, she might rise from her grave, and a hundred years later, Qin Rumeng wouldn't be able to face Qin Fenghuang!
So although Qin Rumeng was dissatisfied with Qiu Ruoxi, she was very clear about the priorities and would definitely help without hesitation if Qiu Ruoxi really needed her assistance!
Meanwhile, on the rooftop of a hotel in Jiangzhong City, a woman with long flowing hair stood, gazing into the distance and muttered, "Victoria, Marshal, indeed they are your people!"
"However, even if they are your people, so what? I will destroy everything of yours, just as you once destroyed everything of mine!"
As she spoke, a strong killing intent emanated from the woman.
This killing intent seemed born from a sea of blood, instantly enveloping the entire rooftop in a dull and somber atmosphere.
Just then, a person clad in a black robe, thoroughly wrapping themselves like a ghost, silently appeared behind the woman.
"Yan Qingdi contacted me; he wants to take action!"
"Assist him!" the woman said heavily, "But it's best that this worthless person dies, do you understand what I mean?"
