When the others supported Xie Wenkai, Madam Xie was only shocked, but Chen Mi also supported Xie Wenkai. She could not accept this feeling of betrayal!
Chen Mi was not a founding member of Six Blessings Corporation, but she had joined the company very early on. It had been almost 30 years. She joined the Six Blessings Corporation right after she graduated from university. She started as a finance clerk and gradually went up the ranks until she had even reached the position she was in today! Her shares had been given to her a few years after she had joined the company. The company had implemented an equity incentive plan. At that time, these shares were not worth much, but now, these shares were worth hundreds of millions! Chen Mi’s success in the Six Blessings Corporation could not be separated from Madam Xie’s support. In the second year after Chen Mi joined the Six Blessings Corporation, Madam Xie married Xie Guofu. After that, Chen Mi had gotten to know Madam Xie, and the two of them had been friends for more than twenty years. Their relationship was really good. Madam Xie also trusted Chen Mi very much! However, it was because of their good relationship that Madam Xie became angrier!
In the face of Madam Xie’s questioning, Chen Mi avoided Madam Xie’s gaze and did not respond. She felt bitter in her heart! But she had no choice! If Madam Xie knew that she had once seduced Xie Guofu, although she had failed to seduce him, it would be enough for Madam Xie to kill her! Chen Mi knew that Madam Xie had a good relationship with her. On one hand, it had to do with her outstanding ability, but it also had to do with her ordinary looks. Madam Xie was assured that Chen Mi posed no threat! In fact, Chen Mi also regretted what she had done back then. At that time, she had experienced another failed marriage and was at a low point in her life. Xie Guofu comforted her like a good big brother. Then, Chen Mi took advantage of the alcohol and impulsively… Chen Mi regretted this matter very much. She even felt a sense of guilt because Madam Xie had always been very good to her!
However, when Jiang Tong was negotiating with Chen Mi, she had promised Chen Mi that Madam Xie and Xie Wenkai would not know about this matter as long as she supported Xie Wenkai in the board meeting. And Xie Wenkai only entered the private room after they had finished discussing. Chen Mi did not want to hurt Madam Xie in her heart, so she absolutely could not let Madam Xie know that she had tried to seduce Xie Guofu. Although supporting Xie Wenkai also hurt Madam Xie, this was only temporary. In the future, she and Madam Xie would definitely be able to reconcile. After all, Xie Wenkai would take over the Six Blessings Corporation sooner or later!
“Chen Mi, I want you to give me an explanation!” Madam Xie shouted angrily when she saw Chen Mi avoiding her gaze! Chen Mi still did not answer. She was just a step away from mimicking Yao Wenhong and looking up at the ceiling.
“Mom, don’t affect the voting,” Xie Wenkai said at this time. Madam Xie looked at Xie Wenkai as if she was looking at a stranger. She could not understand her son. Not only Xie Wenkai, not only Madam Xie but the others as well. They could not understand or comprehend why would these people suddenly support Xie Wenkai?! At this moment, the same thought involuntarily emerged in their minds — they had been planning this for a long time!
Xie Wenkai had been planning this for a long time! He had quietly settled some of the board members. He didn’t suddenly rebel, but he had been prepared for this. It must be!
Madam Xie took a deep breath and sat down slowly with a solemn face.
“Let’s continue the voting.” Xie Wenkai swept his gaze across the room and said in a deep voice, “Who else supports my proposal?” Jiang Tong had settled six people. Now, all six of them had expressed their stance on this matter. There was no one else. However, Jiang Tong had told Xie Wenkai that not everyone needed to be negotiated with to get them on his side. Putting aside the fence-sitters, some people only needed Xie Wenkai to show his stance, his strength, and his unyielding attitude. Then, they would naturally support Xie Wenkai!
Zhou Jingyun had never understood how Jiang Tong could do this. It was because he didn’t understand the internal affairs of the Six Blessings Corporation and the Xie family! But Jiang Tong understood!
The meeting room fell into silence for a while. Xie Wenkai’s votes were not enough. Just as the furious Madam Xie heaved a sigh of relief, the man sitting at the side of the meeting room, the one who looked like Matreiya Buddha, raised his hand. It was Cao Shaowei! Cao Shaowei’s vote in the board meeting was very important since it showed his stance on this! He was an elder, Xie Guofu’s most trusted person, and Xie Guofu’s closest brother. However, he also voted for Xie Wenkai!
Madam Xie glared at Cao Shaowei. She was so angry that she almost could not breathe!
“Cao Shaowei, you…” Madam Xie wanted to curse!
