Chapter 490: Shareholders' Meeting
The man stepped forward and adjusted his glasses. "Xue Zheng, don't worry. We all came here today because we have something to discuss with you. Let's go to the conference room to talk."
"Okay." Xiao Xue Zheng replied very coldly.
Then he said to Qin Feng behind him: "Notify everyone that an impromptu shareholders' meeting will be held today. Let the executives of all departments be prepared."
"Yes, President." Qin Feng agreed and immediately took out his phone.
"No need!" The man with black-framed glasses immediately interrupted Qin Feng's actions.
He stared directly at Shi Runrun and said bluntly, "Why are you still standing here? Is this where you belong? Leave immediately!"
Shi Runrun was startled and looked at Xiao Xuezheng beside him at a loss.
Although she was smart and had many clever ideas, she was still young and was no match for these old guys who had already become cunning men.
They have all fought in the business world and have climbed up step by step following old man Xiao since they were young.
They have experienced countless storms and defeated many opponents.
In the face of their powerful aura, Shi Runrun's cleverness was simply vulnerable.
It's like how a school principal looks at kindergarten children.
Shi Runrun looked at Xiao Xuezhen timidly, her big eyes full of panic.
Xiao Xuezheng took Shi Runrun's hand and looked at the man with black-framed glasses. He refuted rudely, "Uncle Li, Miss Shi is my personal secretary. She is qualified to stay here."
Xiao Xuezheng's tone was extremely tough, and it was obvious that he did not take Uncle Li seriously.
"You!" The other party was humiliated by Xiao Xue Zheng in public, and his face immediately turned red, and he glared at Xiao Xue Zheng angrily.
Xiao Xuezheng glanced at him coldly, then looked at the white-haired old man sitting in a wheelchair, "Grandpa Cheng, what advice do you have for me? Are you trying to control the people around me as well?"
Grandpa Cheng immediately laughed heartily, "Xue Zheng, you worry too much!"
"Grandpa Cheng loves you the most, so how could he interfere with the secretary you hire? However, Secretary Shi is indeed not suitable to attend the shareholders' meeting."
"According to company regulations, her rank is not high enough!"
"This rule was set by your grandfather back then. I don't think you would object, right?"
"Of course not." Xiao Xue Zheng said calmly.
Then he looked at Shi Runrun and said, "Runrun, please go to my office and wait for me. I will come to you after the meeting."
"Okay." Shi Runrun nodded, with obvious reluctance on her little face.
Xiao Xuezheng smiled at her and rubbed her head. "You didn't eat much just now. I asked Qin Feng to order takeout for you. Just order whatever you like."
Shi Runrun nodded again, with some trepidation in her big eyes, "Hubby, I think these people are very fierce. Will there be any trouble? Will you two fight?"
Xiao Xuezheng chuckled, "It doesn't matter. Even if we fight, I can beat ten of them alone. They are no match for me."
Then Xiao Xue Zheng patted her shoulder and gave her a reassuring look.
Then, he looked at Qin Feng, "Keep a close watch on Xiao, don't leave her even a step, don't let anything happen to her!"
"Yes, President!" Qin Feng nodded immediately, "Please rest assured, President, I promise that not a single hair of Secretary Shi will be lost."
Xiao Xuezheng nodded, then turned to look at Grandpa Cheng in the wheelchair, "Grandpa Cheng, I'll personally push you to the conference room."
Old Master Cheng nodded with a smile, "Xue Zheng is still the most filial and sensible, better than any of you!"
"He knows that I'm an old man with limited mobility, so he came over and pushed me. I've never seen you be so filial!"
Mr. Cheng is the oldest, most experienced and most senior shareholder, so naturally, no one else dares to say anything about his reprimand.
Shi Runrun watched them enter the elevator, her heart filled with worry.
It was not until the elevator door closed that Shi Runrun turned around and looked at Qin Feng behind him.
"Assistant Qin, I think those shareholders are here with ill intentions. Don't worry about me. Go help your husband."
Qin Feng shrugged helplessly, "Madam, it's not that I don't want to help the president, but I'm not qualified to attend the shareholders' meeting."
"What?" Shi Runrun opened his eyes wide in disbelief, "You are the president's special assistant!"
Qin Feng opened the door of Xiao Xuezhen's office and walked Shi Runrun in while explaining to her.
"Back when the old man founded the Xiao Group, everyone would bring their assistants or secretaries with them every time they held a shareholders' meeting."
"However, at one shareholders' meeting, they discussed a huge project that was a turning point in the survival of the Xiao Group."
"Finally, they set a reserve price, along with all the details and data for the bid."
"However, just after they prepared everything and went to bid, they discovered that their competitors already had all their information. As a result, the Xiao Group suffered a crushing defeat and almost went bankrupt."
Upon hearing such a huge secret, Shi Runrun was immediately stunned.
"So what happened next? Was the person who leaked the information caught?"
"Yes!" Qin Feng made Shi Runrun a cup of red bean milk tea, "He's An Zhentian's father."
"At the time, he was the old man's most valued special assistant. He always valued him very much. In addition, considering his poor family background, he helped him pay off his student loans and funded his study abroad."
"However, after witnessing the prosperity of the world, he wanted to establish the An Group. In order to achieve his goal as quickly as possible, he took a shortcut and wanted to gain the old man's help by betraying him."
Shi Runrun held the milk tea in her hand and turned the cup nervously. "So what happened next? Did An Zhentian's father succeed?"
Qin Feng chuckled, "He achieved a temporary success."
"The 'benefactor' who promised him that he would help him establish the An Group as long as he provided the secrets of the Xiao Group did indeed win the big project after receiving the information he provided."
"However, that 'noble man' did not fully fulfill the conditions he promised him. He only gave him a dilapidated factory and some almost unusable equipment."
"But An Zhentian's father was a hardworking and capable man. He actually made a fortune from these scraps, and soon, his calligraphy became very successful."
Shi Runrun was shocked again.
"A traitor who betrayed his benefactor is still able to..."
Qin Feng chuckled, "Young Madam, please listen to what I have to say."
"After An Zhentian's father achieved a certain level of success, he became arrogant and no longer willing to endure hardship."
"He started frequenting entertainment venues and indulging in sensual pleasures. Then the old man bribed a top performer at the entertainment venue to reveal An Zhentian's father's secrets, which he then revealed directly to his rivals."
"Everything that happened afterwards was just as planned."
Shi Runrun was shocked for a long time.
"What happened next? How did An Zhentian end up in Northern Europe?"
Qin Feng smiled proudly and said, "Later, An Zhentian's father was devastated and could no longer make a living. So, relying on his excellent foreign language skills, he traveled across the ocean and went directly to Northern Europe to work as a translator."
