"Oh? What conditions did you offer the company? You don't want them to kill me, do you?" Xu Anguo asked, feigning indifference.
He didn't think that a kid like Xu Mo, who was still inexperienced, could make any unreasonable demands.
Xu Mo suddenly smiled sinisterly: "Murder is illegal, but insulting someone, especially in a place like this without surveillance cameras, is definitely not illegal!"
Liu Mingyue frowned and said, "Xu Anguo, Xu Mo's second condition is that you kneel down to him, but it doesn't include an apology!"
Xu Anguo stared at Xu Mo in disbelief and asked, "You want me to kneel down to you? Is this the condition you proposed to the company?"
Liu Mingyue comforted him, "I know you feel wronged, Xu Anguo, but the investment company is currently in dire straits. Every day of delay means a loss. We really hope that Xu Mo can join the company."
The other shareholders also offered their advice with troubled expressions.
"Xu Anguo, as the company's long-time chairman, you certainly don't want to see the company go bankrupt, right?"
"Your Xu family still owns 15% of the company's shares. You wouldn't want those 15% of shares to depreciate, would you?"
"It's just kneeling, it's no big deal for you."
Seeing this, Xu Qingcheng tugged at Xu Anguo's arm and said, "Dad, I think you should just put up with it and kneel down to Xu Mo. What's wrong with that? Besides, compared to how we treated him before, his request isn't like you're losing anything. It's not a loss for us, is it?"
"Get out!" Xu Anguo waved his hand and shoved Xu Qingcheng away. If it were someone else asking him to kneel before Xu Mo for personal gain, he would probably be able to accept it. But when his daughter encouraged him to kneel before Xu Mo, he was so angry he almost lost his temper.
However, the situation on the ground clearly left Xu Anguo with no choice but to agree or disagree.
The shareholders stood up and surrounded Xu Anguo.
"Old Xu, the company has never wronged your father, nor has it wronged you, nor has it wronged your daughter. However, your daughter has done something wrong, and as her father, I have the right to take the punishment for her!"
"Two hundred million! The company lost two hundred million! And your Xu family's shares are only worth two hundred million, right?"
"Xu Anguo, although it is said that a man's knees are worth gold, you are already middle-aged and will soon be buried. What do you still care about saving face for!"
"Money is the most important thing! I hope you can be more realistic, teacher, and not hurt our friendship because of money!"
"You want me to kneel before him? Let me tell you, it's impossible!" Xu Anguo refused as expected.
He knew that apologizing to Xu Mo now would not only damage the Xu family's reputation, but also make it difficult for them to survive in this area in the future.
But some things are beyond Xu Anguo's control.
One of the shareholders placed his hand on Xu Anguo's shoulder.
Then a second shareholder took the opportunity to put his hand on Xu Anguo's shoulder.
Then, the third palm, the fourth palm, the fifth palm...
They placed their palms on Xu Anguo's shoulders, applying pressure continuously.
Xu Anguo's face was flushed, and even though he was under immense pressure, he stubbornly refused to kneel down.
Seeing this, Xu Mo felt incredibly pleased: "Xu Anguo, I never thought you'd have a day like this!"
"Thump!"
Xu Anguo could no longer hold on and his knees buckled, causing him to kneel on the ground. But he still stubbornly said, "Xu Mo, I, Xu Anguo, will remember today's humiliation. But rest assured, I will take back what I lost today from you one day, tenfold!"
"Then I'll look forward to it!" Xu Mo chuckled, walked up to Xu Anguo, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Mr. Xu, I made four requests to the company, and we've only completed two so far. Do you want to know what the other two are?"
"If you have any more outrageous demands, then bring them up. I, Xu Anguo, am not afraid of you little bastard!" Xu Anguo guessed that Xu Mo's other two demands would definitely be detrimental to the Xu family.
He is now truly regretful. He doesn't regret humiliating Xu Mo, but rather regrets not beating that rebellious brat to death back then!
Why...didn't I listen to Xiaofeng before coming to the company...? If I had trusted Xiaofeng, if I had been more cautious earlier, I wouldn't have been forced into this situation where I've lost all face.
Xu Mo carried a chair to the spot where Xu Qingcheng had been sitting, put the chair down, sat down, and addressed the shareholders.
"My third request is that I become the company's chairman!"
"We've already discussed this request, no problem!"
Liu Mingyue opened the folder on the table, took out a document, and placed it in front of Xu Mo.
"This is your employment document. Take a look. If there are no problems, sign it. The monthly salary is 1 million as previously mentioned. Of course, this is just the base salary; there will also be commission!"
Xu Mo looked up at the document for a while, confirmed that there were no traps in it, signed his name, and showed it to Xu Qingcheng.
"Big sister, the position of chairman of Xu's Investment Company now belongs to me. Do you have anything to say?"
"I," Xu Qingcheng wanted to admit her mistake, but she knew that even if she admitted her mistake, Xu Mo would not forgive her, and might even mock her. So why bother admitting her mistake?
"It's just a CEO position. If I lose it, I lose it. But you, now that you're the chairman of the investment company, you have to work for me! After all, I'm the largest shareholder in this investment company!"
"Doing things for you? Are you kidding me?" Xu Mo said coldly.
"What else?" Xu Qingcheng said dismissively.
Xu Mo did not answer the question, but turned to Liu Mingyue and said, "I believe all of you shareholders are already aware of my fourth condition. Now, I would like to ask if you are all ready?"
Liu Mingyue took out another document from the folder, then pulled a pen from her pocket and handed it to Xu Qingcheng: "This is the share transfer agreement. As long as you agree, we will not pursue the two hundred million yuan you lost on your investment!"
Xu Qingcheng took the contract and discovered it was a share transfer agreement. Her expression immediately turned serious. When she saw the contents, her face turned pale: "I own 15% of the shares in the investment company, worth nearly 200 million yuan. You want to buy my shares for 20 million yuan? Is that reasonable?"
Liu Mingyue said calmly, "I said, as long as you agree to sign this contract, we can let bygones be bygones for the two hundred million you lost on your investment. Otherwise, we will have our legal department take you to court!"
Xu Qingcheng admitted that she was scared, and she picked up the pen with great hesitation.
Xu Anguo rushed over, snatched the pen from his hand, and shouted angrily, "You can't sign it!"
