Chapter 117 Special Person He Chenzhou
The day for selecting the chairman of Si Group is approaching, and Si Tang starts to get busy.
Fan Yi sent the man to the company, but did not leave immediately. Instead, he used his divine eyes to observe from the car downstairs. Because of what happened last time, he would become extremely nervous whenever Si Tang left his sight.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in her office, Si Tang looked down at the city skyline. Her eyes, as calm as obsidian, were reflected in the glass.
"Mr. Si, all the information is ready." The assistant behind him reminded softly and handed him a thick folder.
Si Tang turned around and took the document. "Has Director Zhou confirmed it?"
"Chairman Zhou personally called last night and expressed his full support for you." The assistant hesitated for a moment, "It's just... Si Xi has been very active lately, and He Moheng accompanies her to various events almost every day."
Si Tang's reaction was cold, but he had been prepared for it. He had his mother's resources, and the shareholders probably didn't want someone like Si Xi, who had no experience in business, to be chairman.
The shareholders' meeting of the Si Group was held in the top-floor conference room.
When Si Tang entered the venue, the originally noisy conversation suddenly became a little quieter.
She looked around, her gaze lingering briefly on several key shareholders—Director Wang, Director Li, and Chairman Zhou, her mother's best friend, all present.
"Sister, long time no see." Si Xi's voice came from behind, with deliberate sweetness.
Si Tang turned around and saw Si Xi walking towards him, arm in arm with He Moheng. She was wearing a custom-made Chanel suit, and the pigeon egg diamond ring on her left ring finger sparkled in the light.
"I just got engaged to Brother Mo Heng a few days ago. I'm so sorry I didn't see you at the party." Si Xi deliberately waved the ring-covered hand in front of Si Tang, showing off. "He bought it specially for me at a European auction, saying it was an engagement ring."
After saying that, she glanced at the ring on Si Tang's hand and almost broke down again.
He Moheng's gaze fell on Si Tang's face, and he looked at her calmly.
Disgust appeared on Si Tang's face, and he felt very uncomfortable because of the disgust.
"Okay, I'll wait for you outside." He Moheng was not a shareholder of Si Corporation, so such meetings were only for internal use. He spoke softly to Si Xi and left.
Before leaving, he couldn't help but look at Si Tang a few more times.
From the looks of it, she's been doing pretty well lately. When the time is right, he will definitely rescue Si Tang from that monster.
He has been secretly contacting the mysterious organization that Ling Xubai had revealed to him before his death.
After everyone was seated and the meeting was about to begin, the host counted the number of shareholders and announced, "Twenty-one shareholders were supposed to be present, but only eighteen were. Three were absent. According to the company's articles of association, absence is considered a waiver."
Si Tang's brows twitched slightly. Those three people were tough nuts to crack. Their attitudes were always ambiguous. Later on, they couldn't be contacted directly. It seemed that they were standing neutral.
The voting phase begins.
"Voting begins now," the host announced.
Si Tang silently counted the votes. Director Wang, Director Li... everything went as she expected. When it was Chairman Zhou's turn, the old man didn't move.
"Uncle Zhou?" Si Tang reminded softly.
Chairman Zhou's face was pale, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. He seemed to be in a dilemma. In the end, his struggling eyes looked at Si Tang in front of him with guilt.
"I..." Chairman Zhou's voice trembled, "I vote for Miss Si Xi."
The meeting room erupted in an uproar. Si Tang's pupils shrank slightly as she looked in disbelief at the elder who had watched her grow up. Chairman Zhou avoided her gaze and clenched his fists.
Under the table, his phone screen was still lit, displaying a newly received text message: A kidney donor for your wife has been found, and the surgery is scheduled for tomorrow morning. You know the conditions.
Si Xi had a victorious smile on his face.
With the plug-in 0012, the position of chairman was within her reach. The system told her everything about Director Zhou's wife's illness and the source of her kidney, which allowed her to overturn the situation.
The situation took a sharp turn for the worse. Si Tang was now 3% behind Si Xi. A flicker of disappointment crossed her eyes.
When Fan Yi, who was downstairs in the building, saw this, he frowned, slapped Xiao Liu on the back of his head, and glared at him coldly.
"Think of a solution quickly, aren't you the way of heaven?"
8856 touched the back of his head and sighed, but was shocked in his heart. Was the girl of luck too favored? Compared to Si Tang, Si Xi could be said to be a waste. Are those who insisted on supporting Si Xi blind?
The results are about to be announced.
"According to current statistics," the host began to announce, "Ms. Si Xi has won—"
8856 frowned bitterly, "Master Fan Yi, I don't think I can do anything..."
"Bang."
On the other side, the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open.
"Sorry everyone, I'm late."
Everyone's eyes turned to the door. Standing there was a tall man, his black suit outlining his broad shoulders and narrow waist. His eyes were as deep as ink, and his awe-inspiring presence intimidated the entire crowd.
"He... He Chenzhou?" Si Xi cried out, his face instantly becoming uneasy.
How come he is here?
He Chenzhou walked calmly to the conference table and placed three documents on it. "I have just acquired all the shares of Director Zhang, Director Liu, and Director Chen. According to the company's articles of association, I have the right to participate in today's vote."
The meeting room erupted in commotion once again. These three individuals were the ones who hadn't been present, and their combined holdings accounted for 8% of the group's total share capital, enough to change the entire situation.
Si Tang stared blankly at this strange yet familiar man.
The face of her brother Jin Chen from her previous life subconsciously came to mind. The man was always not far away, standing behind her, shielding her from the wind and rain.
"I'm going to cast my vote," He Chenzhou looked directly at Si Tang, his voice clear and firm, "for Miss Si Tang."
"No!" Si Xi stood up suddenly. Her expression twisted for a moment before she forced herself to calm down. "This isn't fair! He's not even a shareholder of our group. This isn't in accordance with procedure!"
After checking the documents, the host announced, "Mr. He's documents are complete, and the vote is valid."
Si Xi's chest heaved violently, and she frantically called out to the voice in her heart that only she could hear: "System 0012! What's going on? Didn't you say I had a sure win today? Aren't you going to straighten my fate and let me take the position of Chairman of Si Corporation?"
A cold electronic voice echoed in his mind, followed by a garbled message, "Warning: Abnormal interference detected. The special individual He Chenzhou's resistance to the power of destiny exceeds expectations. It is recommended that the host adopt a backup plan."
"Useless thing! What backup plan do you have now?" Si Xi screamed in his mind, digging his nails deep into his palms.
What kind of special person can resist the power of fate!
Si Xi was about to go crazy, but he had to remain calm in such an occasion.
He Chenzhou's gaze was only on Si Tang, deep and indescribable, yet with a hint of tenderness.
His voice was as calm as water, "Congratulations, Chairman Si."
