Chapter 203: 097 Challenge (one more update)

“Really?”

Ming Jing beckoned and a man standing behind her handed over a file. Ming Jing smiled as she looked at Mr. Zhang, “Uncle Zhang, please take a look.” Mr. Zhang hesitated before grabbing the file to look through it.

Closing the file, the old man laughed, “A tiger does not father a dog. I should have known, Ms. Zhu, please go ahead.”

Zhu Wentao may be down now, but he was formidable when the company was first established.

As soon as Mr. Zhang finished speaking, Mr. Li glared at him, “Manager Zhang, have you gone senile?”

Mr. Zhang smiled, “All members of the Board are shareholders of the company, and the one with the most shares serves as the chairman with veto power over all decisions. The former chairman, Zhu Wentao, is absent for some reason, leaving us without a leader and we have so far failed to come up with an appropriate solution. Therefore, I propose that the second largest shareholder temporarily act as the chairman to lead us out of our predicament. What do you all think?”

Mr. Li held his head high in triumph, while the others instinctively turned towards him.

The second largest shareholder was Mr. Li. He was one of the original founders of the company alongside Zhu Wentao and stood by the company in its hardest times. According to seniority and shares, it had to be him.

“I agree with Mr. Zhang.”

“I concur.”

“I second the motion.”

Mr. Li was smug, thinking that Mr. Zhang finally saw some sense, he probably didn’t like seeing this immature young woman show off.

Ming Jing calmly sat in the main seat, her unwavering gaze taking in everyone’s expressions.

Mr. Zhang looked at Mr. Li, his smile resembling a Buddha, but his eyes held a sharpness that made one uncomfortable. Suddenly, Mr. Li had a bad feeling.

“Alright, let’s congratulate Ms. Zhu on succeeding her father and temporarily taking over as the chairman of the Zhu Group. Let’s all give a round of applause to welcome Chairwoman Zhu.”

Faint clapping echoed around the silent meeting room, initiated by Mr. Zhang.

Everyone exchanged looks, wondering if they had heard wrong.

Mr. Li’s smile froze instantly, glaring angrily at Mr. Zhang, his gaze almost murderous.

“Mr. Zhang, are you joking? This is a board meeting, not a playground.”

Mr. Zhang looked innocent as he responded, “I made myself clear earlier, the second largest shareholder is to temporarily act as chairman, and no one had any objections.”

Mr. Li pointed at himself, “Are you blind? I’m the second largest shareholder.”

Mr. Zhang held the file, “But this subscription agreement clearly states that

Ms. Zhu Mingjing is the second largest shareholder.”

Mr. Li snatched the agreement, scanning it hastily. With each page, his face grew paler, he slammed the contract down onto the table before Ming Jing,

“You’ve been planning this all along, secretly acquiring shares two months ago. You even took advantage of the recent market turbulence to buy more. Do you know how much risk you’re exposing the company to?”

The room instantly erupted into commotion, and the way everyone looked at Ming Jing changed.

Papers flew everywhere, each one carefully collected by Ming and Zheng Qing.

Facing Mr. Li’s angry condemnation, the young girl at the head of the table remained calm.

Mr. Li, having been in power for a long time, was naturally imposing. Many newer employees would break into tears even from a mere conversation with him. This just showed how hot-tempered he was.

However, this sixteen-year-old girl didn’t even flinch in the face of Mr. Li’s intimidation. She smiled faintly, looking at him like one would watch a monkey’s tantrum.

Everyone wiped their cold sweat, starting to realize that Ms. Zhu was not to be underestimated.

Nothing inside the company stays a secret for long. Everyone knew that Zhu Wentao had embezzled Lin Qing’s shares and was now divorcing her. This man was both ruthless and despicable, often gossiped about behind his back.

Ms. Zhu had only been back in action for over three months. Leaving aside her mysterious reputation, the fact that she started secretly acquiring shares two months ago indicated that she was far from being as naive as her age suggested.

Judging someone’s abilities by their age is the silliest thing one could do.

There were even theories going around that Zhu Wentao’s troubles might be

linked to her somehow..
