Unlike others who can manage to catch a nap during a break, he hasn't slept for a full 72 hours.
A patient with habitual insomnia needs medication to fall asleep. Just now, the doctor had given him medication, a strong sedative, and he even wore an eye mask. But now, even the strong sedative seems to be ineffective on him. Not only can he not fall asleep, but his heart is also pounding uncontrollably.
Of course, even to someone as experienced as him, Chen Rou was far too arrogant.
Because the surgery went smoothly, Nie Rong finally trusted her and even praised her. But who would have thought that Nie Zhao's surgery had just been completed, and she would try to seize power, specifically the security detail?
They also plan to have a stranger take charge of the Nie family's security team.
How could Nie Rong not be angry? He was not only angry, but he was also consumed by rage.
That's why, in a fit of rage, he smashed the water glass in his hand, shattering it into eight pieces filled with sharp glass shards, which were now scattered on the ground. His eyes were full of ruthlessness as he coldly stared at the broken glass.
Seeing that her boss was very angry, Secretary An was afraid that he might faint from anger, so she comforted him and said, "Chairman, Miss Chen is still young after all. She doesn't think things through and is prone to impulsiveness. The decision-making power is yours. As long as you don't agree, leave the rest to me."
Nie Rong did not speak.
Nie Jiayu was also there; he was still a child, and he couldn't help but say, "Grandpa, Chen Rou is practically riding on your head!"
Nie Rong suddenly trembled all over, but he still didn't say anything.
He is, after all, a self-made billionaire, and he is shrewd and calculating. What he is thinking is something that most people cannot guess.
He huddled on the sofa, old and thin, trembling slightly, his thinning hair standing on end, looking somewhat ridiculous.
Of course, Secretary An only dared to laugh in her heart and did not dare to show it on her face.
He was rebuffed, so he looked at the butler, Uncle Ming, who stepped forward and said, "Why don't we ask the board of directors to persuade Miss Chen?"
Beside Nie Rong at this moment were his household servants. He also had seven shareholders in the Nie Group. If you compare him to an emperor, then those seven shareholders are his key ministers. They only approved the proposal for Nie Zhao to be the next chairman, but they did not intend to relinquish power to Chen Rou. If Chen Rou wanted to make decisions for Nie Zhao on her own, they could unite and vote to directly remove Nie Zhao from the board of directors. In that case, Chen Rou would have nothing.
Butler Ming actually admired Chen Rou quite a bit, but her move just now was too wild and ruthless, and he couldn't resist. At the crucial moment, he turned against her and firmly stood on Nie Rong's side.
But as he made his statement, Nie Rong's expression remained unchanged, his demeanor remained the same, and he did not say a word.
The richest man was about to be ridden on by his new daughter-in-law, but he remained sitting firmly, unmoved as a mountain.
There's also Mei Baoshan, who's in charge of security and once saved Nie Rong's life. Secretary An and the butler were worried about trouble, so they went to see him and asked him to try to persuade Nie Rong again, hoping it might be helpful.
Mei Baoshan hesitated for a moment, then asked first, "Brother-in-law, are you alright? Is your heart feeling better?"
Nie Rong not only suffers from insomnia, but also has some problems with blood supply to his heart due to his advanced age. If he gets too angry, it may trigger a heart attack. Mei Baoshan is not only a servant of the Nie family, but also a relative of Nie Rong, so we need to ask him about this first.
Upon hearing this question, Nie Rong finally spoke up. He suddenly looked up, his eyes blazing: "Baoshan, in your opinion, what exactly does Arou want to do?"
Secretary An and the housekeeper also turned their gazes toward Mei Baoshan.
Like Nie Rong, they were also confused about Chen Rou's purpose and wanted to hear what Mei Baoshan had to say.
Mei Baoshan and Mei Lu are siblings and cousins of Han Yuzhu. However, they were not born to the main wife of the Mei family. Instead, they were born to a Japanese woman when Mei's father went to Japan on business. By the time Mei's father learned that he had two children in Japan, the woman had already passed away. Mei Lu and Mei Baoshan were about six or seven years old when they found out.
They grew up in Japan, so their habitual manners naturally carry a sense of humility.
He bowed to Nie Rong before saying, "I think that in Ms. Chen's opinion, Chairman, your health is not good and it is only a matter of time before you step down from the board of directors. Ah Zhao's brain injury will not heal in a day or two. She probably wants to take charge of the Nie family and the board of directors on your behalf."
Although Nie Rong was thin, he was not weak in spirit.
Upon hearing this, the corner of his lips twitched involuntarily, and after a long while, he slowly nodded: "Hmm!"
He then asked, "So, in your opinion, what should I do?"
Mei Baoshan was responsible for Nie Rong's safety, and Mei Lu took care of his daily life; they were naturally the two people he trusted most.
He always considered things from Nie Rong's perspective, saying, "I am just an employee, I don't understand management, and I have no opinions, but no matter what decision you make, Chairman, I will do my best to ensure your safety."
Clearly, Nie Rong was satisfied with his answer, and his expression softened.
But then, with a sudden, long sigh, as if all his energy had been drained, he waved his hand and said, "Leave it to her!"
