Chapter 691: Words Fail to Express Meaning
Upon hearing this, Cheng Shaoqi's face was filled with anger and he slammed the table.
"Xun Zi, stop slandering me. If you don't have evidence, I can sue you for defamation!"
Xun Zi raised an eyebrow. "We were just having a casual discussion. Why is Director Cheng so anxious? Is there something wrong?"
"you!"
Cheng Shaoqi pointed at Xun Zi and was about to speak when a cold voice sounded in his ears.
"Director Cheng, please put down your hand."
Cheng Shaoqi turned his head and glanced at Xiao Muzhen. "I thought it was someone barking, but it turned out to be the Xiao family's adopted daughter. Although the Xiao family's surname is Xiao, we shareholders are not just for show. It's not your turn to speak here."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped in the face.
Before everyone could see Xiao Muzhen's actions clearly, a bright red slap mark appeared on Cheng Shaoqi's face.
Cheng Shaoqi was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect someone would dare to hit him.
"Xiao Muzhen, you actually dared to hit me? You're just a pet of the Xiao family..."
Before he could finish his words, he was slapped on the other side of his face.
"puff!"
Cheng Shaoqi spat out a tooth covered in blood, and before he could react, Xiao Muzhen slapped him twice.
"Mr. Cheng, if you can't speak, just shut up. After all, a dog can't spit out ivory."
After being slapped several times in succession, Cheng Shaoqi felt that he had never been so embarrassed before, and raised his hand to hit Xiao Muzhen.
However, when facing Xiao Muzhen's cold eyes, the raised hand froze in place.
He knew very well that he could not beat Xiao Muzhen at all. If he really took action, Xun Zi might take this opportunity to kick him out of the board of directors.
Thinking of this, he suppressed his anger and looked coldly at Xun Zi who had been sitting there as if he had seen nothing.
"Boss Xun, your adopted daughter of the Xiao family beat up a shareholder in public, and you just watched and did nothing? If Xiao's shareholders can be beaten and scolded by your family in the future, it will definitely chill all shareholders!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the shareholders in the conference room immediately stopped watching the fun and looked at Xiao Muzhen with some dissatisfaction.
It was Cheng Shaoqi who was beaten today, and it could be them tomorrow.
Xiao Muzhen smiled slightly, "Don't worry, shareholders. As long as you don't bite people like a mad dog, I generally won't take action."
"Bitch! Who are you calling a mad dog?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Muzhen's hand move, and Cheng Shaoqi subconsciously dodged back, with fear in his eyes.
Xiao Muzhen raised an eyebrow and said, "Director Cheng, if you're afraid of being beaten, stop spouting so much shit. Otherwise, if you get hit in the face this time, you might get hit somewhere else next time."
Cheng Shaoqi was so angry that his face turned blue. Just as he was about to speak, Xun Zi said, "Alright, stop talking. This is a conference room, not a vegetable market. Xiao Muzhen, go out and make me some coffee."
"Okay, Mr. Xun."
This is blatant favoritism.
"Xun Zi, what do you mean? Are you just going to let go of those slaps Xiao Muzhen gave me?!"
He has only had the chance to slap others in his life and has never been slapped by anyone. You can imagine how angry he is now.
Xun Zi glanced at him with a half-smile, "If I remember correctly, you also cursed someone just now. You cursed her, and she slapped you a few times. It's fair. If you have any objections, you can settle it with her privately."
"Privately?"
Cheng Shaoqi's eyes were cold, "Boss Xun, are you sure?"
"Of course, okay, let's continue the meeting. I'm going to hold a press conference..."
At the end of the meeting, Cheng Shaoqi glanced at Xiao Muzhen with a strange expression and whispered, "We'll see!"
If you have the guts to hit him in public, you must be prepared to bear the consequences!
Xiao Muzhen acted as if he didn't hear it. He didn't even look at him and turned away.
Cheng Shaoqi felt as if his face was stepped on by Xiao Muzhen. He was so angry that he almost went crazy, and his eyes were full of gloom as he stared at her back.
Back in the CEO's office, Xun Zi smiled and said, "Zhenzhen, you did a great job just now."
During the previous meeting, Cheng Shaoqi was always looking for trouble, and Xun Zi had long disliked him.
"Boss Xun, will this really allow Cheng Shaoqi to contact the person behind this?"
"I'm not sure either, but once he realizes he can't do any harm to you with his abilities, he'll probably contact the person behind him. I'm just a little worried that your safety will be threatened."
At first, Xun Zi planned to let Xiao Zhuan do this, but was stopped by Xiao Muzhen, whose identity was more suitable.
First, her skills were better than Xiao Zhuan's, and she could protect herself in any dangerous situation. Second, she was just the adopted daughter of the Xiao family, and she could provoke Cheng Shaoqi's anger more, which would also make him less wary.
"Don't worry, I will definitely protect myself."
"Well, I'll also increase the protection around you."
Next, it’s just a matter of sitting back and waiting.
However, before Cheng Shaoqi could take action against her, another unexpected thing happened.
Huo Yunting was pulled down from the position of president by Huo’s shareholders!
When hearing the news, Xiao Muzhen's first reaction was disbelief. After all, Huo Yunting has always been a master strategist and he still holds most of the Huo Group's shares. How could he possibly give up the position of Huo Group's president?
However, soon, the overwhelming news forced her to believe it.
She immediately called Huo Yiyi, "Yiyi, what's going on with the Huo Corporation? Why was your brother dismissed from his position as president?!"
Huo Yiyi was silent for a few seconds before whispering, "I don't know why, but my brother's stake suddenly became 41%. I asked him where the other 10% went, but he refused to tell me."
Xiao Muzhen frowned and was about to speak when the call was suddenly hung up.
The next second, Huo Yiyi sent a message.
[Zhenzhen, I have something urgent to do right now. Let's meet in the evening to discuss it in detail!]
Xiao Muzhen paused as she was about to reject the suggestion, replied with a "OK" and put down her phone.
However, he couldn't concentrate on reading the document in front of him. Huo Yunting no longer had the position of president of Huo Group, which was definitely not a good thing for the Xiao family.
At least she was sure that Huo Yunting would not deal with the Xiao family, but the same could not be said for the newly appointed president.
Thinking of this, Xiao Muzhen couldn't sit still anymore, so he stood up and went straight to the office to find Xun Zi.
"Boss Xun, have you heard about the Huo family's situation?"
Xun Zi's face was solemn, and he nodded, "Well, I've asked someone to check it out. I'll tell you when I have any news."
“Now the Xiao family’s situation is even more difficult.”
"Yeah, but as long as the Huo family doesn't deal with the Xiao family, nothing will happen."
Xiao Muzhen frowned, "That's what I'm worried about."
The Huo Group suddenly changed its president, and no one was prepared. There must be something fishy going on.
"Let's wait and see what happens. Whether this incident is good or bad for the Xiao family, it is inevitable."
