A flicker of something unusual passed through Rong Shaoze’s eyes. He pursed his lips slightly, but said nothing.
He had two worlds, one dark and one bright.
He almost never brought anything from the dark world into the bright one, but now, he had dealt with his own family with his cruelty.
Half an hour later, the meeting resumed.
This time, Rong Shaoze proposed a new election for the president, with the candidates being himself and Rong Mingyan.
The situation took a drastic one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn; previously, not a single shareholder had supported him. But once everyone realized the tide had turned, they all cast their votes for Rong Shaoze.
Except Rong Guangguo did not vote for him.
However, it was enough. Rong Shaoze was elected President of Shengjue with an overwhelming majority, and Rong Mingyan, just a few months into his tenure, was ousted.
The media outside had not left; upon receiving the news, the situation blew up.
Rong Shaoze had indeed used his shares to take back control.
No sooner had Rong Mingyan stepped out of the company than a flood of reporters surged forward. They surrounded him, hurling countless questions.
Faced with the sharp questions from the reporters, Rong Mingyan remained composed, without a hint of distress or humiliation.
After much difficulty, the security managed to fend off the reporters as a black sedan slowly pulled up in front of Rong Mingyan.
He got in and closed the door.
The driver turned and asked with concern, "Sir, are you all right?"
"Yes," Rong Mingyan nodded faintly, his face free of the shame of losing power. "Drive."
The car drove off, leaving behind the swarm of reporters like flies.
Looking at the scenery outside the window, Rong Mingyan couldn’t help but curl his lips into a cold smile.
Rong Shaoze had finally begun his counterattack, but this was only the beginning of the game.
Did he think what he wanted was Shengjue?
Heh, what he wanted was something Rong Shaoze probably couldn’t afford...
Lin Xinlan had only sat in the conference room for an hour, and yet Shengjue had already undergone a regime change.
Rong Shaoze’s decisiveness and ruthlessness in his actions were something she had long since witnessed.
She hadn’t expected that even faced with his grandfather and cousin, he would be equally relentless.
The era of Rong Guangguo was over. From today on, the era of Shengjue belonged to Rong Shaoze.
Lin Xinlan didn’t understand the intrigues of the business world, nor did she care about the Rong Family’s internal affairs. Everything that happened today, she simply took as gossip, casually listening to it and then letting it go.
After attending to some matters, Rong Shaoze took Lin Xinlan away with him.
He was taking her out to eat. Sitting in the car, she asked indifferently, "Is this to celebrate your regaining the president’s position?"
The man smiled faintly, his eyes devoid of any joy. Regaining Shengjue was an inevitable outcome.
When he had stepped back in the first place, he had been confident he would regain his position, so there was nothing worth celebrating.
"No, it’s to celebrate that today I finally got to hit Rong Mingyan for once. However, this is just a lesson for him. The real blow is still to come," he said.
If he wasn’t mistaken, Rong Mingyan’s strength was not simple.
He had people look into it, but beyond confirming that Rong Mingyan was his cousin, they could find out nothing else.
All of Rong Mingyan’s past records had been destroyed, no one knew what he had been doing for the past thirty years or where he had gone.
The fact that even he couldn’t find out proved how extraordinary Rong Mingyan was.
What he needed to do now was to push Rong Mingyan into a corner, to force him to reveal his true nature bit by bit.
Lin Xinlan pondered for a moment and then spoke.
