Chapter 100 A Powerful Aura Unleashed
Shen Jiheng knew that if Han Xi returned, he would definitely look back at the Gu family, so he immediately made the suggestion.
"Arrange for someone to keep an eye on the Gu family, and notify us immediately if anything happens."
Qin Chuan asked curiously, "Why doesn't the president just ask Young Master Gu? You two are close, so if anything happens, he can notify you faster."
Shen Jiheng shook his head. Over the years, he had inquired about Han Xi's whereabouts countless times, but Gu Beichen had always kept his mouth shut. With Zhuo Qingqian in the middle, it was impossible for him to speak up.
"Just do as I say."
Qin Chuan nodded, unsure of the situation between them, and could only do as he was told.
The next day.
The conference hall of Hanshu Group was bustling with activity. Han Yue was holding the company's anniversary celebration, inviting many well-known businessmen in the industry to attend, and also to announce an important piece of news.
Han Xiao wore a custom-made red dress, and her outstanding figure became the focus of the entire event.
A bright smile spread across her face. After years of waiting, she was finally going to be able to sit in the position of company president.
Ji Qing walked up to Han Xiao with two glasses of champagne, smiling broadly, and said, "President Han, congratulations in advance on your appointment as president."
Han Xiao took the wine glass and put her arm around her shoulder, laughing happily, "Mom, thank you for everything you've done for me. Once I have the entire Han Shu Group under my control, it will be the world for us, mother and daughter."
Ji Qing nodded with a smile. It's all that bitch Han Xi's fault that Han Yue, that good-for-nothing, doesn't dare to marry her now.
Even though she gave birth to his son and moved into the Han family home smoothly these past two years, her status is still illegitimate and unjustifiable, which is utterly despicable.
Now that's great, her daughter is about to become the president and take control of the entire group. Even if Han Xi comes back then, she won't be able to do anything to them.
"You need to prove yourself and win over the other shareholders. From now on, you'll be in charge of this group."
Han Xiao excitedly spread his hands, already enjoying the feeling of power ahead of time.
It's all so wonderful to even think about.
"Mom, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down."
Han Yue stood on the podium, winked at the mother and daughter, and then waved to everyone.
"Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend the company's 10th anniversary celebration. I have prepared a generous gift bag for each guest, and I hope you all enjoy it."
As applause rang out, Ji Qing and her daughter walked over hand in hand.
"The success of Hanshu Group today is all thanks to the support of all of you friends present. I, Han, would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to you all."
Han Yue spoke eloquently and beckoned Han Xiao to come up on stage as well.
Han Xiao suppressed her excitement and stepped forward, her smile almost reaching her ears.
"I invited everyone here today because I have an important announcement to make. My health has been deteriorating over the past two years, and my daughter, Han Xiao, has been handling all the big and small matters in the company. Even the big new deals we signed this year were all done by her."
As soon as these words were spoken, people immediately echoed them.
"Han Xiao is truly a promising young man; she is a worthy daughter of a tiger father."
"That's right. I heard that the Han Shu Group has grown so much over the years thanks to her."
"It seems they signed another order worth over 100 million last week; their strength is truly not to be underestimated."
......
Ji Qing was satisfied with the people he had arranged and took the opportunity to say these words, thus setting the mood for the scene.
Han Yue said sincerely, "So I have decided to hand over the position of president of Han Shu Group to her. I believe that with her ability and enthusiasm, she will definitely be able to lead the company to a higher level."
Han Xiao was moved to tears and choked up as she said, "Thank you, Dad, for giving me this opportunity. I promise you, I will manage the group well and take Han Shu Group to the international market."
Thunderous applause erupted in the hall as everyone cheered for Han Xiao.
Just as Han Yue was about to hand her the appointment letter in person, a voice of opposition suddenly came from the entrance of the hall.
"Wait, you're not qualified to make that decision."
As the stern voice rang out, the hall fell silent.
Everyone turned to look, and saw a woman in a black suit standing at the door. She crossed her arms and looked at them coldly before walking forward with light steps.
The clattering footsteps carried a sarcastic tone.
When Han Xiao saw the face of the person approaching, he instinctively took two steps back. How could this be...?
Han Xi has been missing for four years and hasn't been involved in the company's affairs during this time. Why would he suddenly reappear, and why did he choose this particular time?
Han Yue and his wife's expressions changed drastically; they never expected their rebellious daughter to suddenly return.
Han Xi laughed and said, "What's wrong? Are you that surprised? I just didn't come back, I'm not dead. It's my own company's tenth anniversary celebration, of course I have to attend."
As Han Xi spoke, he walked to the podium and pushed Han Yue, who was in a daze, aside with his elbow.
She looked at the hall's layout and nodded in satisfaction: "It's decorated quite well, just what I wanted."
Han Yue, regaining his composure, said nervously, "Han Xi, why did you suddenly come back without saying goodbye? We were just making a suggestion today."
"If I were to give you a heads-up, you'd better prepare in advance. I just wanted to see what new tricks you guys had up your sleeves after all these years. You really haven't disappointed me. Not only are you squandering the company's money, but you've also dragged your illegitimate daughter into it."
Han Xi's words caused an uproar in the room.
Han Yuesheng was afraid she would ruin the good atmosphere, so he stepped forward and whispered, "Today is a good day for the company. Let's talk about it privately. Don't embarrass yourselves."
Han Xi laughed into the microphone: "So you also feel ashamed? Then why did you give the group that my mother worked so hard to build to your mistress? What right do they have besides being shameless?"
Ji Qing was furious. She had waited so long for this day, only to have it ruined by Han Xi.
She couldn't take it anymore and stood up to criticize him.
"Han Xi, although this group was founded by your mother, it was your father and my daughter who ran it for the past seven years. Besides, children born in wedlock have the same inheritance rights as children born in wedlock. Your father has the right to give what he owns to my daughter. What right do you have to stop him?"
Upon hearing this, Han Xi couldn't help but applaud her, then turned to the group of onlookers.
"Everyone heard what this mistress said, right? You'd better go back and keep a close eye on your husbands, lest this powerful mistress come knocking on your door with her illegitimate children to fight for your property."
As soon as he finished speaking, the hall erupted in discussion. Over the years, Ji Qing had frequently attended various events with Han Yue, so he had quite a bit of influence.
As a result, Han Xi's words exposed her true colors, making the respectable wives present despise this kind of mistress.
Faced with the strange looks from everyone, Ji Qing felt ashamed to even lift her head.
Seeing this, Han Xiao stepped forward to speak. Now she was a top-notch marketing manager who had signed countless big deals, and future operations would depend on her.
"Han Xi, you only own shares, but the company's success has nothing to do with you. I signed all those big contracts, so I have that ability."
Han Xi scoffed at these words, her contemptuous gaze sending chills down Han Xiao's spine. In the years since they last met, her aura had grown even stronger.
