Chapter 226 Civil Unrest
Xiao Beisheng said, "You rest here. I'll go to the study."
After saying that, he turned and walked out, leaving Luo Yan lying stupidly on the bed.
Xiao Beisheng was very familiar with this scene.
At the beginning, grandma invited Su Man and the Qiao brothers and sisters to the old house. After the meal, Mrs. Xiao got Su Man drunk and arranged her in Xiao Beisheng's room in the old house.
The same strategy.
Xiao Beisheng still remembers the surprise he felt when he lifted the quilt.
If his grandmother hadn't ordered the door to be locked, he would probably have turned around and left like he did tonight.
But the mood was different.
He wasn't quite sure what the difference was between the two moods.
But he could feel that his mood was different when facing Su Man and Luo Yan.
Xiao Beisheng thought, even if someone came tonight, he and Luo Yan would be locked together.
He probably wouldn't be able to sleep in the same bed with Luo Yan as he did with Su Man.
As for what is the difference between the two.
And why is this happening?
Xiao Beisheng couldn't figure it out.
His mind was in a mess and he didn't want to think about this. What he was thinking about was the information Gao Xun had found out today and what Tao Jinmei had just said.
——Su Man is pregnant, and it seems that she is going to marry Qiao Shiyan.
In front of others today, he looked calm and collected, without much reaction.
This is an inertial defense mechanism.
The living environment and family education he received since childhood have made him accustomed to hiding his true self and never letting outsiders see his emotional changes.
This is the Xiao family's training for their heirs.
At this moment, when he was left alone before everyone else, the truest emotions in his heart were released.
It slowly crept up his body, breaking his fortitude.
His shoulders seemed unable to bear the weight any longer, and his once upright back slumped down bit by bit...
-
Xiao Beisheng hasn't been to the company for nearly half a month.
Tao Jinmei took a contract with President Xiao Beisheng's private seal and went to Dingsheng, throwing the contract in front of Gao Xun.
"Bei Sheng won't be coming to the company in the near future. He has entrusted me to handle all matters of the company. Assistant Gao, please take care of this plan."
Gao Xun pushed his glasses up and looked carefully at the contents of the plan.
I couldn't help but wonder: "Is this the president's decision?"
Tao Jinmei asked sternly, "Are you questioning me?"
"No, no, no, Madam, I just..." Gao Xun said, "Boss Xiao insisted on obtaining the right to use the North and South Mountains. He shouldn't give it up so easily, especially to Xingyao at a low price. This shouldn't be the case..."
Xingyao is Yu Hanming's company.
Yu Hanming is a lazy young man who has been spoiled and has never had any plastic surgery. The old man of the Yu family looks down on this little grandson of the third wife.
But Tao Jinmei was unwilling to give up.
After crying, making a fuss, and even threatening to commit suicide, she managed to get some funds from her husband and started this company for her son.
Old Master Yu said that if Yu Hanming ruined the company, he would completely lose the qualifications to compete for the position of heir.
Tao Jinmei is very ambitious.
At the beginning, she abandoned Xiao Beisheng's father and got together with Yu Yang, the third daughter of the Yu family. She became pregnant with Yu Hanming and entered the Yu family without authorization.
This is a past that both the Xiao and Yu families despise.
But Tao Jinmei finally achieved her goal.
But who would have known that in just thirty years, the Xiao family would rise with such force and dominance that it would become the dominant business family in Haicheng.
The Yu family, once a wealthy and powerful family, is now on the decline and its momentum is waning.
But a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and Tao Jinmei was unwilling to accept that she had chosen the Yu family and ended up getting nothing. So she worked extra hard to seize the family property.
What's more, the current heir of the Xiao family is her biological son. She can use the power of the Xiao family to make up for the shortcomings of her younger son.
In the future, when Xiao Beisheng and Luo Yan are married, and Xiao Beisheng is completely subdued by Luo Yan, won't he also want to reconcile with her, his biological mother? How can a biological son really not recognize his own mother?
This is what Tao Jinmei had planned.
"This is your CEO Xiao's decision. You may not trust his mother, but you recognize his personal seal, right? He stamped it in black and white. Dingsheng has a rule that any document with the CEO's personal seal will be greenlit and executed immediately. Do you want to refuse?"
Tao Jinmei paraded through the streets, looking very proud of herself.
It seems that the document in his hand is authentic and valid.
Gao Xun's heart was beating fast.
He really doubted it.
He was not unaware of the relationship between the Xiao and Yu families, and he also knew that the shareholder of Xingyao was Xiao Beisheng's half-brother, Yu Hanming.
The Xiao family gave the Nanbei Mountain area to Xingyao, which was undoubtedly cutting off their own flesh to feed Xingyao and the Yu family.
How could their President Xiao, who hated the Yu family so much, do this?!
"Please wait a moment, I'll go talk to the department head." Gao Xun was polite and respectful.
He asked Tao Jinmei to wait there while he pretended to go to another department.
Until he was out of Tao Jinmei's sight, he turned into an empty cubicle, closed the door, and called Xiao Beisheng.
"Ancestor, God, you have to answer the phone." Gao Xun muttered to himself.
But as expected.
The call didn't go through.
Xiao Beisheng didn't answer the phone at all.
Ever since the day Xiao Beisheng saw the photos of Qiao Shiyan accompanying Su Man for a prenatal checkup, this situation has continued until now.
Gao Xun: Who understands, my family? This cold-blooded work machine, Mr. Xiao, unexpectedly! He went on strike! As expected, as long as you live long enough, you'll see everything!
Gao Xun wanted to cry but had no tears. He hung up the phone, gritted his teeth, and called Mrs. Xiao's assistant.
Previously, President Xiao and the old lady were fighting for power, which caused a huge uproar and the entire company was in chaos.
Later, Mr. Xiao won. Not only did he take away some of the old lady's voice, he also fired some of the company's veterans who followed the old lady.
Although the compensation was generous, the old lady still felt embarrassed.
Gao Xun really couldn't bring himself to ask the old lady for a decision now.
But even if it can’t be opened, it has to be opened.
He alone cannot bear such a huge loss.
What's more, no matter how fierce the internal dispute between Old Madam Xiao and President Xiao was, it was all for the good of the Xiao family.
The call went through.
Gao Xun thought he would have to endure the other party's sarcasm, but miraculously, he didn't.
The assistant spoke in a normal tone and smoothly transferred Gao Xun to the old house's internal line.
Gao Xun contacted Mrs. Xiao.
When I told this to Old Madam Xiao, she really didn't accept the document:
"Now that your master is confused, are you confused too?"
"But...it's stamped with Mr. Xiao's personal seal. The company has regulations, and I have no other options. That's why I came to you for a decision."
"The company also has regulations. If more than 30% of shareholders express dissenting opinions, this document will be invalid. The shares I hold, plus one of my son's, make up exactly 30%."
"Okay, I understand. I'll reply to Ms. Tao right away. This document cannot be effective."
"Go ahead. If she continues to act recklessly, contact me and I'll go meet her in person."
After hanging up the phone, Aunt Mei behind me said:
"It seems that the young master is going against you, old lady, and wants to take back your rights and sideline you, but in fact, he still has some feelings for you. The shares he left for you are just right."
Madam Xiao snorted, but she didn't look displeased. "This kid is trying to prevent me from interfering in his private affairs again, and from bullying Su Man like I did Luo Yan. He's just like his father, a love-brained person! But at least he has a conscience. Like his father, he's smart and far-sighted."
The heyday side.
Tao Jinmei was rejected and was so angry that she was fuming.
She held the document in her hand and pointed at Gao Xun with the deformed paper. She narrowed her fox eyes and said sinisterly, "Call for help? Just wait, how long can you rely on this old man for support?"
