Ji Hanchen chuckled lightly, "Yunyun, this 100 billion is truly a betrothal gift. I want to marry you, and I will never marry anyone else in this life."
Xu Qingyun finally realized that what Ji Hanchen had said was true.
Has he really thought this through?!
No, let's end this meeting first.
With a sharp gaze sweeping over the board members, Xu Qingyun finally fixed her gaze on Chen Dong's face. Her voice was clear and resolute: "Ladies and gentlemen, you have heard it. The Ye family's broken cash flow has been resolved. In addition to the investment from the Ji family and the Huo family, the remaining 30 billion will be covered by my personal dowry."
The entire conference room fell silent.
The 50 billion that they had just thought was hopeless was so easily resolved by this young girl who had just taken office!
Five hundred billion!
If other groups were facing such a large funding gap, they would probably have gone bankrupt by now!
All eyes turned to Chen Dong, and whispers began to circulate.
"Is Director Chen going to leave the Ye Group now?"
"After making such a bold statement in public, how can you possibly have the nerve to stay?"
"Hey, Director Chen, why did you have to gamble so much? Now look what happened, you didn't manage to oust President Xu, but you've kicked yourself out of the board of directors."
"It's not Chairman Chen's fault. Who would have thought that such a young girl could solve a funding gap of 50 billion?"
Hearing the surrounding chatter, Chen Dong's face turned ashen, and he trembled with rage, like a leaf turning from a leaf.
Snap!
Chen Dong slammed his hand on the conference table and roared, "Xu Qingyun, what do you have to be so proud of?! Although you solved the problem of these 50 billion yuan, what does that have to do with your ability?! In the end, didn't you still rely on a man?!"
"Without the Huo family's young master's 10 billion, and without the Ji family's ninth master's 100 billion dowry and investment, how would you have resolved this broken funding chain?!"
Enraged, Chen Dong blurted out his true feelings.
Now that his departure from the Ye Group's board of directors is a done deal, he has completely broken off relations and has nothing to worry about.
Even if he can't have the Ye family, he can't let this inexperienced little girl have it easy in the Ye family!
Huo Yan's eyes immediately hardened, while Ji Hanchen's face remained icy.
Before the two men could get angry, Xu Qingyun had already cast two cold glances at them and retorted, "They did help me, but is it wrong for me to rely on my own beauty? God gave me this face, which is my capital. I can use it to change the fate of a group heading towards decline. I don't think there's anything shameful about it."
"Everyone heard what Director Chen said at the meeting today. We hope that Director Chen will keep his promise and leave voluntarily."
"Furthermore, if any other directors, like Director Chen, disagree with my ability to manage the Ye Group and have differing philosophies, they are free to leave voluntarily. I will not make things difficult for them! Meeting adjourned!"
After saying that, Xu Qingyun immediately grabbed Ji Hanchen's wrist and left.
Chen Dong's face was extremely ugly. He was so angry that he cursed loudly behind Xu Qingyun's back: "Who do you think you are! You actually dare to think you can kick me out of the Ye Group! Let me tell you, dream on!"
The board members looked at each other, feeling that Chen Dong was being unreasonable.
He himself said he would leave the board of directors, so what does that have to do with this Mr. Xu?
Xu Qingyun paid no attention to Chen Dong's exasperation and pulled Ji Hanchen into her office.
She needs to know exactly what the Ji family did to her mother back then!
"season……"
Before she could even voice her question, her red lips were fiercely captured by a pair of thin lips, a wild and passionate kiss pressing down upon her.
Xu Qingyun pushed against his chest with both hands, originally just wanting to push him away, but the moment their lips touched, it was as if a fire ignited the dormant emotions in her body.
She missed Ji Hanchen, terribly.
The two kissed passionately, leaving Huo Yan dumbfounded and wanting to rush over and separate them.
However, after thinking about it, he decided against it. As the older brother, his biggest wish was for his younger sister to be happy.
Ji Hanchen is clearly the one who brings happiness to his sister, the one who can make her happy.
Huo Yan silently left the office, kindly closing the door behind him. He then leaned lazily against the wall, lit a cigarette, and began to smoke.
In the office, their breaths mingled, growing increasingly rapid and intense.
Ji Hanchen reluctantly released Xu Qingyun only when they could barely control their urges.
"I'm sorry, Yunyun, I miss you so much that I can't control myself."
Xu Qingyun steadied herself, allowing her rapid breathing to gradually calm down, before speaking in a hoarse voice: "Ji Hanchen, tell me, what exactly did the Ji family do to my mother!"
Ji Hanchen's handsome face stiffened, and the intense lust in his eyes was extinguished in an instant.
He pulled Xu Qingyun down to sit, his hands, with their distinct knuckles, clenched into fists, only relaxing them after a long while.
He took out Ji Huai's diary from his pocket.
He got it from Ren Anjing because he couldn't bring himself to say it.
After Xu Qingyun saw it, her face turned ashen, and she sat there stiffly, looking as if her soul had been taken away.
“Yunyun…” Ji Hanchen’s heart was breaking. He knew Yunyun would react this way.
Sure enough, this was a huge blow to her.
Snap!
Xu Qingyun slapped his hand away, stood up from the sofa, and asked through gritted teeth, "It's Ji Yaxuan, isn't it?!"
Xu Qingyun's eyes blazed with fury, brimming with tears. She felt resentment, anger, and hatred, but at the same time, she felt heartache for her mother!
Being cut open alive! How painful would that be?!
She hadn't had a peaceful two years after giving birth to her when Liang Wanrou orchestrated a car accident, which led to a long 16-year imprisonment!
My mother's short life was almost devoid of peace and happiness. What did she do wrong that God had to treat her this way, inflicting all this misery upon her?
"Yes." Ji Hanchen did not deny it, and then said, "I know you hate it, but you must calm down. Think about it carefully, why don't your father and your brother acknowledge you?! They know everything your mother has suffered, why do they still let Ji Yaxuan go!"
"I've come to you today to tell you that no matter what happens, I stand with you. I've chosen you! Between family and you, I've chosen you!"
"I've already started investigating Ji Yaxuan's matter, and I will give you an explanation!"
Ji Hanchen's attitude was unusually firm.
Xu Qingyun was deeply moved by Ji Hanchen's resolute decision.
Ji Yaxuan was like a mother to him; how could he really be so heartless?!
"Also, Yunyun, there's something else I need to tell you."
Seeing the pain flash in Ji Hanchen's eyes, Xu Qingyun's nerves tensed up instantly, guessing what he was about to say!
Her body!
She must have a very serious problem!
