Li Susu took a breath and suppressed her temper.
This Zhao Mingrui, who has lectured me time and time again, does she really think I'm an easy target?
"President Zhao, the board meeting is a forum for discussing official business. In what capacity did you speak those words just now?"
"Or perhaps you convened this meeting for your own private matters?"
Li Susu looked at Zhao Mingrui with a smile, her eyes full of obvious mockery.
Zhao Mingrui's eyes narrowed, clearly angered. He wanted to speak again, but Li Susu beat him to it.
"Alright, enough of the small talk, everyone, what exactly is there to discuss at this board meeting?"
Li Susu glanced around, but no one spoke.
No one wanted to be the one to stick their neck out, because if they really offended Li Susu and her two brothers found out, their interests would also be harmed.
They were just there to watch the show and chime in when things got interesting.
If necessary, one can choose to take sides, but that's a matter for another time.
Seeing that no one was speaking, Zhao Mingrui took the initiative to speak and pushed the cooperation proposal on the table over.
"This is a cooperation plan with Fenglin Group. You will be personally in charge of this project and there must be no mistakes."
Li Susu glanced at it but didn't open it.
She had heard of Maple Forest Group before; it was a difficult business partner, and rumors circulated that the person in charge had unusual fetishes.
Zhao Mingrui's decision to push this collaboration onto her clearly indicates ill intentions.
Seeing that Li Susu did not respond, Zhao Mingrui's tone became even more hostile.
“If you can’t secure this partnership this time, the board will withdraw its investment. At that point, even if you beg and plead, it won’t be of any use.”
Li Susu's face turned cold. "You're withdrawing your investment because of a partnership?"
Are you threatening me?
Zhao Mingrui snorted, "I'm not threatening you, Li Susu, I just want to remind you that even if you become the president of the Li family, you still have to be mindful of the board of directors' opinions."
“This time, I’m the elder teaching you the rules of conduct.”
Li Susu looked coldly at Zhao Mingrui, "Can you represent the entire board of directors by yourself?"
As soon as he finished speaking, several people in the board of directors began to speak.
However, they were all on Zhao Mingrui's side.
"The cooperation with Fenglin Group is just a normal collaboration. President Li, you won't be unable to handle it, will you?"
"If others could do it so easily, there would be no need for President Li to personally intervene, right?"
"You're not the same Little President Li you used to be. New broom sweeps clean, but when are you going to actually start making your mark?"
The board members are all cunning old foxes, their words are watertight, and they are all subtly manipulating people.
Perhaps others might not be able to withstand such pressure and thus have no choice but to agree.
However, Li Susu had been enduring humiliation for the past five years, and now she has finally woken up and escaped from that awful family.
At this critical juncture, if anyone dares to bully her again, they'll really be walking into a trap.
"Are you saying that if I can't secure this collaboration, I can no longer sit comfortably in my position as CEO?"
No one answered Li Susu's question, but everyone sitting there knew the answer.
She sneered, having no intention of being coerced by these people.
