At this point in Ye Guoliang's speech, the expressions on the faces of the board members present varied, and one of the directors asked:
"Since the information is accurate, with the connections of our Ye Group, we can easily smooth things over and suppress it! Is it really necessary to call everyone here for such a trivial matter?"
Ye Zhen glanced at the person who spoke and realized that it was undoubtedly Ye Jin's team.
Several of the other directors also chimed in:
"Guoliang, even if Ye Linyan's company has run into problems, there's no need to call everyone back! If there's a problem, he can handle it himself! If he can't handle it, it's because he's incompetent. I don't remember his company affecting our group's profits!"
The person who spoke had never taken sides and didn't want to get involved in the matter between Ye Zhen, Ye Jin, and Ye Linyan. He just felt that making a scene today and even bringing out the board of directors was a bit of an overreaction!
Ye Zhen turned his gaze to Ye Guoliang, who took out a stack of documents from his briefcase and had his assistant distribute them to the board members present.
"Third Brother, what you said is true. If it were just his company that had problems, it wouldn't have alarmed the board of directors. But the problem is more serious now. Ye Linyan's company is a subsidiary of our Ye Group. It's not a big deal that he lost money, but he's now involved in red-line issues. So we have to take it seriously!"
Ye Guoliang glanced at Ye Qingshan in the main seat after seeing that the documents had been distributed to everyone, and continued:
"That old lady crying and making a scene in front of the group's gate is probably also related to the trouble at Ye Linyan's company! Everyone can take a look at the documents in their hands. If the fact that he is being thoroughly investigated is confirmed, it will definitely involve our group!"
Ye Qingshan glanced at the things Ye Guoliang handed him, his brows furrowed, and asked:
“We’ve encountered joint inspections by multiple departments before. This matter can be put on hold for now. Before a conclusion is reached, it’s too hasty of you to bring everyone here.”
Ye Qingshan's words were clearly in defense of Ye Linyan, and the other directors stopped expressing their opinions. Ye Guoliang then took out a brown paper bag and poured out more than a dozen sheets of paper.
After tidying it up briefly, Ye Guoliang pushed it in front of Ye Qingshan:
"The legal representative of the Cloud High-End Private Club is named Xu Nuo. He's one of Ye Linyan's people, right? This joint investigation into his company started from here! And the whistleblower is this Xu Nuo!"
Ye Guoliang glanced at Ye Qingshan and then said:
"I got these through connections! We're currently conducting a joint investigation into Ye Linyan's company. If this Xu Nuo comes up with anything else, not only will Ye Linyan's company be finished, but he himself will be in jail!"
Ye Qingshan looked up at Ye Guoliang, then shifted his gaze to Ye Zhen, scanning him several times, making Ye Zhen feel a chill run down his spine. He lowered his head and remained silent.
"If Ye Linyan's company really confirms these things, the impact on the Ye family will be significant. Everyone is aware of the current situation. Who can predict how much and how far his accident will affect the entire Ye family?"
After Ye Qingshan saw Ye Guoliang say these words, the directors present began to whisper among themselves, and one of them even patted the table.
"Everyone except the board members, please leave!"
............................................................
Taking advantage of this break, Ye Guoliang took the things that were originally placed in front of Ye Qingshan and passed them around to the other directors.
When the report was presented to Ye Jin, he coldly flipped through several pages. Most of the reports concerned the source and destination of funds, and most were from several years ago. He didn't see any reports from the last year or two.
Ye Zhen looked at Ye Jin's increasingly dark face and unconsciously curled up the corners of his mouth, but he was afraid that Ye Qingshan would see it, so he suppressed it!
After confirming that no one else was in the meeting room except the board members, Ye Qingshan cleared his throat before speaking:
"Guoliang, I will carefully consider what you've said. I will also verify this matter after the meeting!"
Ye Zhen realized that Ye Qingshan wanted to suppress the matter, but he couldn't take the lead himself, so he could only give Ye Guoliang a meaningful look!
"Chairman, I know you prefer Ye Linyan to succeed you, but now that this has happened, it's not just a matter for you alone! It concerns the interests of the entire Ye Group, and we're all watching!"
Ye Guoliang glanced at the other directors; silence was the best course of action.
"Regardless of whether Ye Linyan can get past this hurdle, my opinion is that it will definitely implicate the Ye Group!"
Ye Qingshan fixed his cold gaze on Ye Guoliang. As the chairman, Ye Guoliang had not yet made a decision, while Ye Guoliang was just a director on the board. Ye Qingshan was very unhappy about this.
But the concrete evidence is all on the meeting table, and everyone has seen it. At this point, Ye Qingshan can't easily protect Ye Linyan.
Ye Guoliang naturally understood the coldness in Ye Qingshan's eyes, but having already stuck his neck out, he couldn't back down now. He glanced at Ye Zhen and muttered to himself:
If Ye Linyan is really kicked out of the Ye family this time, and Ye Zhen becomes the head of the family in the future, then I will have chosen the right side.
Thinking of this, Ye Guoliang ignored Ye Qingshan's gaze and addressed the other directors:
What do you all think?
With their own interests at stake, no one spoke, and all eyes turned to Ye Qingshan, who was sitting in the main seat.
Ye Qingshan knew perfectly well that Ye Zhen was behind this incident, using Ye Guoliang as a scapegoat.
As the chairman, Ye Qingshan couldn't show too much favoritism at this time, so he turned to Ye Jin beside him, wanting him to stand up and speak.
But Ye Jin kept his eyes down, clearly indicating that he didn't want to stand out.
Ye Qingshan felt frustrated and annoyed. He glanced around before speaking:
"Why are you all silent again? Didn't you say that involving the Ye Group is everyone's business? Speak up if you have something to say!"
Hearing Ye Qingshan's clearly displeased tone, the board members looked at each other, none of them wanting to speak first.
Ye Guoliang was about to speak when Ye Qingshan glared at him, and he sat back down in his seat, looking dejected.
"When Ayan first returned to the Ye family, the company was on the verge of bankruptcy. In just a few years, it has grown into what it is today. When it was making money, the group also benefited greatly!"
As Ye Qingshan spoke, he observed the expressions on everyone's faces.
Ye Zhen glanced at Ye Guoliang across the conference table. Seeing that he didn't intend to speak again, he became a little anxious. If Ye Qingshan continued like this, he would definitely stand up for Ye Linyan. He had finally planned such a good show, so of course he couldn't just let it end like this.
"Chairman!"
Ye Zhen spoke up, stopping Ye Qingshan from saying anything more.
All eyes turned to Ye Zhen.
