Chapter 792: That’s Right, I’m Sheng Xiao
“I may not know much about business, but I know that to maintain the stability of Huang Yao, there’s no need to terminate the plan in Asia, sell the land, or even pay a deposit. As long as Eighth Young Master can help.”
“The problem is that he’s not willing to help,” the vice president emphasized to everyone.
Ren Yufei did not want to talk more with him. So, she just took out her phone and called Sheng Xiao in front of everyone.
“Hello? Sheng Xiao? Eighth Brother, Huang Yao has encountered some difficulties. Can you help us?” Ren Yufei had already asked him last night, but now she asked him once again. She wanted everyone to know what kind of vice president they had.
“Capital, technology, management, you name it.”
When everyone heard Sheng Xiao’s answer, they all looked at Vice President Yang in confusion. “Can you explain what’s going on?”
“I was personally promoted by the president. I’m grateful for the president’s trust. Of course, I hope that Huang Yao is good. But dare I say, when Sheng Xiao said that he didn’t want Huang Yao, he didn’t want it. He just left a mess behind and didn’t care about it. Can you believe how he had treated Huang Yao?
“Yes, I lied to you. I didn’t go to Zhongteng’s people because I have a lot of doubts about Sheng Xiao. Can any of you guarantee that he will manage Huang Yao well?
“One day, he will fall out with the Sheng family again. Does that mean that he will still care about Huang Yao? Maybe yes, maybe no. Rather than having that uncertainty, we might as well find our own way from the start. That way, we can avoid being a victim!”
The vice president’s words were filled with anger and much emotion. Everyone present could feel his love for Huang Yao. What he said made a lot of sense and his words resonated with them.
It was better to solve the problem on their own than to beg others.
The main reason was that Sheng Xiao had treated Huang Yao like a toy back then. He had happily played with it a few times before throwing it out when he was unhappy. Such a person was not suitable to be in charge.
“Then everything will go according to the vice president’s suggestion. Let the board of directors make the decision on this matter, okay? As for Secretary Ren, in future meetings, you will only be responsible for your job as a secretary. Don’t get involved with anything else, okay?” The head of finance said, trying to be polite as he said this to Ren Yufei.
Ren Yufei knew that she was a mere secretary. The things that she said were not enough to convince this group of people otherwise. Therefore, she did not say anything more. She only told Sheng Xiao about this matter over the phone after the meeting.
“It’s useless no matter what you do now. Don’t provoke the vice president either. Let him do as he sees fit.”
Sheng Xiao was also thinking about Ren Yufei’s safety.
“But he really wants to stop the development plan in Asia and sell Huang Yao’s assets.”
“Let him do it and let him sell,” Sheng Xiao said nonchalantly. “I’ll take care of it in time. You just need to protect yourself.”
“I understand.”
Ren Yufei not only understood Sheng Xiao’s plan, but she also understood Sheng Xiao’s reminder because he had already made all the arrangements.
Ren Yufei did not need to risk her own safety for these people.
A mere vice president wanted to mess with Huang Yao, but he did not even know what he was going up against.
That afternoon, Huang Yao held a board meeting. At the board meeting, Vice President Yang put forward a proposal to solve Huang Yao’s problem, which was by ending Huang Yao’s biggest contract and selling off the least profitable pieces of land.
Not only that, during the meeting, Vice President Yang tried to sow discord between the board of directors and Sheng Xiao, and it was almost unanimously supported by the board of directors.
Not only did the board of directors support his approach, but they also agreed to persuade Old Master Sheng. Because for important decisions, besides shareholder approval, the chairman of the company had to personally sign and approve them.
However, just as Shen Yu said, if Sheng Kai wanted to swallow the whale, he had to carry out the plan step by step.
This time, Huang Yao had prepared the deposit, but once the time was up, the amount of the deposit would change again. Then, they would have to sell off other assets…
This was how the trap was planned to be.
..
In the evening, Old Master Sheng received a call from the board and was told about the current situation of Huang Yao. After hearing about it, his condition worsened and he fainted at home.
The Sheng family sent Old Master Sheng to the hospital and it took him several hours to wake up.
The first thing he wanted to do when he opened his eyes was see Sheng Xiao.
Ren Yufei had no choice but to call Sheng Xiao. “Eighth Brother, Grandpa’s condition has worsened again. He’s in the hospital now. If the public finds out about this, it will be even worse for Huang Yao.”
Sheng Xiao rushed to the hospital with Mu Qiqi. Seeing how weak the old man was, Mu Qiqi asked Ren Yufei the reason for his sudden serious illness. “He was much better yesterday. Why is it like this today?”
“I just looked at Grandpa’s phone. It seems like he had received a call from a board member. He probably knows about Huang Yao’s situation and couldn’t take it.”
Ren Yufei handed the phone to Sheng Xiao.
“I can’t take it anymore when grandfather is seriously ill.” Sheng Xiao took the phone and said, “Don’t let him receive any messages about Huang Yao in the future.”
After saying that, Sheng Xiao called the board member back.
“Old Sheng? What happened just now? Are you feeling unwell? Aiya, I’m really sorry. I really didn’t mean to anger you.”
“You didn’t mean to but you’ve angered him nonetheless,” Sheng Xiao said coldly. “If you have anything to discuss with grandfather, you can discuss it with me.”
“Sheng… Sheng Xiao?”
“That’s right, I’m Sheng Xiao.”
“I… It’s okay. Third Young Master has been arrested. Huang Yao needs someone to take care of things, right? So, I wanted to speak with the old master.”
“Ever since the old man underwent a major surgery, his body hasn’t been as good as before. If anything were to happen to him, can you be responsible, Director Gao? If you can, I’ll pass him the phone…”
“No… No.” Director Gao immediately admitted defeat.
“I hope you know what you’re doing and that there won’t be a next time.”
Director Gao hurriedly hung up the phone.
Why was Sheng Xiao still so terrifying after so long?
..
Sheng Xiao put away the phone as the old man woke up.
When he saw the people in the ward, he blinked and held Mu Qiqi’s hand. He said to everyone, “Eighth Brother and the few of you stay here. The rest of you can all go back.”
Sixth Brother and the others knew that there was no use staying, so they nodded and said, “Then, Grandpa, have a good rest.”
The old man felt very weak and his breathing quickened. After a while, he said to Sheng Xiao, “Eighth Brother… do you still remember the yellow envelope I gave you back then?”
“Of course.”
“Take Huang Yao and merge it with Zhongteng. You can manage it however you want, but don’t let it fall into the hands of evil people.” The old man was obviously struggling to speak.
“What are you talking about?” Mu Qiqi stared at him. “We agreed that we won’t care about Huang Yao. And yet now, you’re so angry over a small matter.”
