Chapter 79 Accountability

79

Bo Siye spoke euphemistically, but Jiang Siyu immediately understood what he meant.

This kitten is hungry, not that it likes me.

But it's okay, Jiang Siyu gently rubbed the kitten's round, soft belly with her fingertips.

"I'll breastfeed you, and you have to like me." The tone was somewhat commanding.

"Bo Siye, I need to check how much to feed it and how to feed it. I'll call you back later."

"No need to check, I know, just ask me."

"Hmm?" Jiang Siyu finally managed to tear her gaze away from the kitten.

She looked at Bo Siye on her phone: "You know?"

“I once raised a stray cat, it was only a few days old,” Bo Siye replied casually.

Jiang Siyu stared at him, and after a moment, her smile deepened: "Then tell me, how should I feed it?"

Bo Siye: "The underfloor heating at home isn't on yet, so you need to turn on the air conditioner for it. If you feel its little paws are too cold, give it a hot water bottle to warm it up through your scarf."

"Dissolve goat milk powder in a 1:5 ratio, about 5ml each time, and leave it for 2-3 hours..." Bo Siye suddenly stopped speaking.

"Ayu." He looked at Jiang Siyu, who was listening attentively, "Taking care of it is too much trouble, and you won't be able to rest at night."

“But it’s already my kitten.” Jiang Siyu looked at the little creature rubbing against her wool scarf with gentle eyes.

She meant that she wouldn't give up on the kitten, and Bo Siye understood Jiang Siyu's meaning, so he didn't try to persuade her any further.

Anyway, he'll be back in two days at most, and with him there, Jiang Siyu won't have to suffer anymore.

Bo Siye went over the methods for caring for kittens with Jiang Siyu again, and said:

"I'll have someone send you a cat bed, a pet electric blanket, and other tools. Keep an eye on your phone."

"Mmm." Jiang Siyu responded, but the thought of having to use a cotton swab to wet and stimulate the kitten to defecate made her feel a little distressed, as she had never poked the kitten's bottom before.

It shouldn't be too difficult...

With that thought in mind, Jiang Siyu turned to talk to Bo Siye about something else.

"I want to move to a bigger house."

"A villa?" Bo Siye asked.

"Let's go to a nearby apartment, around the 16th to 20th floor." Although Jiang Siyu already had her car, she didn't want to spend too much time commuting to work.

“Yes, I’ll have someone go over and redesign and renovate it, and then we’ll move in.” Bo Siye said this, then asked:

Are there any requirements for the interior layout of the house?

"The walk-in closet needs to be bigger, and we also need to leave a room for the kitten."

"Okay, I'll have Song Qi communicate with the designer and show you the 3D renderings later."

As for the other furnishings, Bo Siye will first select those that Jiang Siyu will like, and then wait for her to make the final decision.

The thought that he and Jiang Siyu would soon move into a home that they had redecorated filled Bo Siye's heart with warmth.

After spending some time with Jiang Siyu watching the kittens, Bo Siye hung up the video call to attend to his own business.

As Bo Siye said, taking care of a kitten that is just two weeks old is not an easy task.

That evening, in order to feed the kitten and observe its condition, Jiang Siyu moved the kitten directly into the room.

I set an alarm to check whenever I woke up. Luckily, the kitten was quite well-behaved, eating and sleeping as usual, occasionally whimpering to prove it was still alive.

The next day was Monday, and Jiang Siyu had to go to work, so she asked a veterinarian to come and take care of the little guy, and also to observe his condition from a professional perspective.

When she arrived at the company, she received a video from the veterinarian. The little guy was happily nursing and seemed to be in good spirits.

The vet said that there were no problems with the kitten's current diet and good spirits, but more specific issues would require waiting for the test results from the hospital.

This put Jiang Siyu at ease.

“President Jiang,” An Ning reminded Jiang Siyu, “Chairman He’s proposed shareholders’ meeting will begin in half an hour, and he requires your attendance.”

After saying that, she looked at Jiang Siyu with concern. An Ning had just received the notification.

Logically, if Jiang Siyu was required to attend the shareholders' meeting, she should have been notified several days in advance. However, she only received the notification when the meeting was about to begin, which clearly indicates that the shareholders wanted to catch her off guard.

Jiang Siyu frowned slightly: "Why would the company suddenly hold a shareholders' meeting?"

Generally speaking, as long as the company's direction and profitability are not problematic, these shareholders will not actively interfere in the company's affairs.

"Perhaps it's because of Vice President Lin," An Ning replied in a low voice.

Jiang Siyu: "Tell me about it."

"Previously, there were rumors that Vice President Lin had a close relationship with a certain director of the company, but no one knew who it was."

An Ning only remembered the rumor when she suddenly recalled Lin Sui's expulsion.

The company is now holding a board meeting. After much thought, the biggest change in the company is the appointment of Jiang Siyu as the new president and the resignation of Lin Sui as the vice president.

Previously, when Jiang Siyu took over as a shareholder, there was no action taken. However, after Lin Sui took over, a shareholders' meeting was convened, which inevitably led people to suspect him.

Jiang Siyu was unaware of this matter.

She stood up: "I understand. Where's the meeting room?"

"19th floor."

*

When Jiang Siyu arrived at the meeting room, the shareholders who were eligible to attend the meeting were already seated inside.

Jiang Siyu had never met them, but she had read their information, so these faces were not unfamiliar to her.

But at this moment, in addition to the shareholders, the heads of various departments were also present in the conference room, including Lin Sui.

Jiang Siyu glanced at the first empty seat on the left, walked over, and sat down.

The woman sitting in the middle did not look at Jiang Siyu, but instead lowered her eyes and flipped through the documents in her hands.

Time ticked by, but the conference room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

At 9:30, the woman closed the folder on the table and looked up.

"The shareholders' meeting was convened on the grounds that Vice President Lin Sui was dismissed from his position by headquarters."

After speaking, He Huiqiong's gaze fell directly on Jiang Siyu, who was playing with the fountain pen in her hand.

"President Jiang, don't you think you owe me an explanation for bypassing the domestic board of directors and directly applying to headquarters to remove Vice President Lin Sui?"

The board members are composed of directors elected by the major shareholders, which is equivalent to a 'butler group' authorized by the boss.

As the second largest shareholder and chairman of Guanjing, He Huiqiong, having long held a high position, exudes a strong sense of pressure when she stares at someone.

But Jiang Siyu met her gaze without the slightest fear. She grabbed the pen she was twirling in her hand and pressed it onto the table with a crisp 'thud'.

"My investigation revealed that Lin Sui abused his power, neglected his duties, and encroached on the interests of others. I believe that whether I hand it over to the domestic board of directors or the overseas headquarters, the outcome will be the same."

“So…” Jiang Siyu leaned back lazily, crossing her long legs:

"Is Chairman He questioning me about this because he's dissatisfied with the headquarters' punishment? Or does Chairman He have other ways to handle the Lin Sui matter that would better reassure the company's employees and acknowledge their contributions?"
