In the main conference room of the Brilliant No. 5 store, all the board members raised their hands and agreed to remove Wang Cheng from his position as chairman.

Wang Peng looked at him and gestured for him to proceed: "Wang Cheng, please."

Wang Cheng's hand, hidden under the conference table, clenched into a tight fist: "Brother, is it necessary to go to such extremes?"

Wang Peng shook his head: "First of all, you should address me by my job title when you're working. Secondly, how many times have I told you not to call me 'big brother' anymore?"

The meeting room was silent; everyone was staring at Wang Cheng.

Previously, Wang Cheng relied on his position as chairman and used very aggressive methods, even insulting shareholders, so no one supported him.

Now he's in trouble, and everyone's just watching and having a good time.

Wang Cheng said, "Brother, I own 40% of the shares, so I'm still the second largest shareholder. Even if I don't become chairman, I still have the right to remain on the board of directors."

Wang Peng held up two fingers: "Two million, I'll buy your shares."

"Haha..." Wang Cheng burst into laughter, the sound echoing in the conference room, extremely jarring.

He suddenly slammed his hand on the table and stared straight at Wang Peng: "Do you think I'm stupid? Don't even think about taking my shares without five million."

"We'll see," Wang Peng said with a smile, facing the shareholders. "Is Comrade Chang Kai here?"

“Chairman, I’m here.” A middle-aged man stood up, raising his hand.

“Now that you are the third largest shareholder, is there any problem with me appointing you as chairman?” Wang Peng asked.

"No problem, thank you, Mr. Wang." Chang Kai's face flushed with excitement, and he glared at Wang Cheng.

He had a conflict with Wang Cheng. In the past, Wang Cheng had scolded him in a meeting because of work-related issues.

When Wang Cheng saw Chang Kai's eyes, his heart skipped a beat, and his hatred for Wang Peng intensified. At the same time, he understood what Wang Peng meant.

Wang Peng did not want to save Huihuang; on the contrary, he wanted to hasten its demise.

After the meeting, Wang Peng's finance and administration team quickly moved into the Brilliant No. 5 store and officially took over Brilliant's affairs.

They are all talents transferred from brother supermarkets, so their loyalty can be guaranteed.

In the days that followed, Chang Kai and Wang Cheng began their battle of wits.

Although Chang Kai was less capable, he was supported by the majority of the board of directors and was evenly matched with Wang Cheng.

They were so preoccupied with internal strife that within just one month, the business of No. 5 Store hit a new low, plummeting to rock bottom.

The minority shareholders couldn't sit still. They invested to make money, not to watch palace intrigue dramas.

That afternoon, Wang Peng was working at Brothers No. 5 Store when he received a report from Hu Mingyue that Chen Fei, a shareholder of Huihuang, wanted to meet and talk.

A short while later, Hu Mingyue led Chen Fei to Wang Peng's office and brewed a pot of hot tea.

Chen Fei is fifty years old this year. He has very small eyes and a very large mouth.

"Mr. Wang, I'd like to transfer three percent of Brilliant's shares. Are you interested?" Chen Fei asked cautiously.

“I’m interested, but based on Huihuang’s current business situation, your shares are only worth 300,000.” Wang Peng smiled and handed him a cigarette.

Chen Fei immediately looked worried, knowing that a month ago, someone offered 420,000 yuan to buy his shares.

Wang Peng gently comforted him: "Old Chen, don't be sad. In another month, your shares will be worth at most 200,000."

Hearing this, Chen Fei felt even worse. He knew Wang Peng was telling the truth; Brilliant Life was now in complete chaos and not far from bankruptcy.

He gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "I don't want money, can I exchange it for my brother's shares?"

Wang Peng immediately shook his head: "Brother, I don't need money right now, I don't need financing."

"Sigh!" Chen Fei was completely disheartened and could only nod helplessly, "Alright, I'm willing to sell my shares."

Wang Peng immediately made an internal call, summoning Du Lei to handle the situation. Du Lei took him away and helped him sign the relevant contracts.

At this point, Wang Peng stopped buying Huihuang shares personally and instead used Brothers Supermarket to acquire Huihuang Supermarket.

"Big Brother." Hu Mingyue walked into the office and came over to massage Wang Peng's shoulders.

Wang Peng closed his eyes and cleared his mind, and felt completely relaxed.

Hu Mingyue said softly, "As long as someone takes the lead, the shareholders will come one after another to sell their shares, and the bankruptcy of Huihuang Supermarket is a foregone conclusion."

"In two or three months at most, Brilliant will face a financial crisis. At that time, Wang Cheng will definitely sell the shares," Hu Mingyue added.

Wang Peng nodded. According to Hu Mingyue's prediction, he would be able to finish dealing with domestic matters in three months at most, and then go to England to find his wife and children to live with.

He hadn't realized that so much time had passed since they parted, and he missed Mingzhu and Mengjiao, and their child, terribly.

"Brother, we have less and less time together." Hu Mingyue gave a bitter smile, her tone filled with resentment.

“Mingyue, I know how you feel… I’m sorry.” Wang Peng also gave a bitter smile.

"Don't say sorry, it's all my fault for being too persistent." Hu Mingyue leaned on Wang Peng's back and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Brother, Du Lei broke up with his girlfriend, did you know?"

Hu Mingyue chuckled, as if she were canceling Du Lei's marriage: "Wang Meijing ran off to America, and she still agreed to the script."

Listening to Hu Mingyue's teasing, Wang Peng smiled and joined her in canceling Du Lei's romantic troubles.

Xiao Du's ex-girlfriend, Dong Shishi, immigrated to England and chose to break up with Du Lei.

Du Lei is like a seesaw for women to travel abroad.

“Brother Lei didn’t tell me about this. I’ll ask him.” Wang Peng reached for his phone on his desk.

"No need, he thinks it's a small matter and there's no need to tell you." Hu Mingyue chuckled. "He broke up with you a month ago."

Wang Peng nodded, put down the phone, and closed his eyes again.

"Big brother, half a month ago, that brat Du Lei confessed his feelings to me." Hu Mingyue shook her head, a hint of sweetness flashing in her eyes.

"Huh?" Wang Peng immediately became excited and hurriedly got up from his chair. "Really? You've finally come to your senses?"

Hu Mingyue nodded: "Yes, after so long, I've come to terms with it. Sometimes I think, how wonderful it would have been if I had met you before my two sisters-in-law."

"Haha..." Wang Peng was amused by him and shook his head: "That's no use, I will still choose them."

"Hmph." Hu Mingyue pouted, dissatisfied, and said, "Why? What's wrong with me compared to them?"

“You’re no worse than them, are you? But love is something that’s hard to explain,” Wang Peng said. “Mingyue, are you planning to reject Du Lei? It seems like there’s no one more suitable than him.”

Hu Mingyue smiled slightly and said helplessly, "My parents say so too, and I think so too. Du Lei is indeed the most suitable marriage partner for me."

“I…I’ve decided to wait and see. I’ll accept Brother Lei the day you leave us,” Hu Mingyue added.

"Mingyue, don't go too far. Du Lei is definitely a good match." Wang Peng said, secretly relieved.

The "bright moon" problem that had troubled him for so many years was finally solved.
