Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Yao Wenhong betrayed Xu Zhentian, and Sun Duo, as an independent director, began to support Xie Wenkai. Moreover, the very important chief financial officer, Chen Mi… and some other people… it was impossible to mention them individually, it was even more impossible to put them together! But Xie Wenkai did it!
“Xie Wenkai just hates me for being so meddlesome and doesn’t want to acknowledge me as his mother. I don’t know what Zhou Jingyun said to Xie Wenkai yesterday…” Madam Xie was a little angry and blamed everything on Zhou Jingyun. After all, Xie Wenkai only changed so much after he got along with Zhou Jingyun.
“It can’t be Zhou Jingyun,” Xie Guofu interrupted Madam Xie on the phone. He already knew about Zhou Jingyun and Xie Wenkai yesterday. Madam Xie called him and told him. Xie Guofu didn’t think it was a bad thing, he understood Xie Wenkai better than Madam Xie. He knew that Xie Wenkai was under a lot of pressure, so it was a good thing to talk and relax with his friends. Moreover, it was also a good thing to befriend Zhou Jingyun. However, he had just befriended Zhou Jingyun, and Xie Wenkai had already done such an earth-shattering thing. This showed that it had nothing to do with Zhou Jingyun! Zhou Jingyun didn’t have a meddlesome personality. He was already in a lot of trouble. His relationship with his family was so bad, so it was unlikely that he would interfere in the Xie family’s matters! Xie Guofu guessed that Zhou Jingyun was at most the straw that broke the camel’s back! Those who supported Xie Wenkai couldn’t have sided with Xie Wenkai on the same day and at the same time!
Xie Guofu deduced that Xie Wenkai had probably been secretly plotting this for a long time, waiting for an opportunity to make a move. And Zhou Jingyun… was very likely the last external aid that Xie Wenkai had brought! An external aid that was enough to prove the strength of his connections! The conversation between Zhou Jingyun and Xie Wenkai yesterday had indeed affected Xie Wenkai. However, even if Zhou Jingyun wasn’t there, there would still be someone else to catalyze this. Therefore, the problem wasn’t Zhou Jingyun, but Xie Wenkai had long wanted to do so!
“Alright, alright. Don’t feel too aggrieved. Our son has finally grown up.” Xie Guofu was more open-minded than Madam Xie. This was because he didn’t know how many more years he could live. Who knew if he would suddenly die one day? Therefore, the fact that Xie Wenkai was able to suddenly become independent even though he didn’t really do this the right way, the ability, and boldness he displayed made Xie Guofu feel gratified. At least Xie Wenkai didn’t disappoint him. The current Xie Wenkai was more suitable to be a successor than the obedient Xie Wenkai from before! More suitable to be in charge of the Six Blessings Corporation’s business empire!
Xie Wenkai was the only son of Xie Guofu and Madam Xie. No matter what he did, Xie Guofu and Madam Xie could not do anything to him.
Just as Madam Xie was on the phone with Xie Guofu, the directors, assistant secretaries, and others who had participated in the board meeting just now all walked out of the meeting room. They also saw Madam Xie who was standing at the end of the corridor and making a phone call, they also saw that she was making a phone call, so they could guess who she was talking to. No one went over to disturb her, and they didn’t need to go over to disturb her! There were two ends of the elevator corridor! Before they entered the elevator, some had complicated expressions, while some had relaxed expressions. They turned their heads to look at Madam Xie’s back.
There were only two people left in the meeting room. After Cao Shaowei put down his phone, he said to Xie Wenkai, “Your father’s phone is busy. He’s probably on the phone with your mother. I’ll call your father later to explain.” After saying that, Cao Shaowei smiled. He looked at Xie Wenkai, who didn’t seem to be in a good mood, and asked, “Do you regret it?”
Xie Wenkai shook his head and didn’t say anything.
“Relax,” Cao Shaowei smiled and sighed, “You’ve done everything you could. At least, in my opinion, you’re right! You were able to do this so I, your Second Uncle, will definitely support you!”
“Thank you, Second Uncle,” Xie Wenkai said. He and Cao Shaowei exchanged a few simple words. There was nothing special about it. Cao Shaowei only encouraged Xie Wenkai a few times. He knew that Xie Wenkai was not in the right mood right now. Firstly, he used this method to rebel against his mother, so it would hurt his family. Secondly, Xie Guofu would definitely call Xie Wenkai! The unease in Xie Wenkai’s heart was also because he did not know what Xie Guofu would tell him either.
“Ring ring ring.” Xie Wenkai’s cell phone rang. Cao Shaowei and Xie Wenkai looked at the cell phone on the table at the same time. Then, Cao Shaowei stood up with his hands on the chair and walked out of the meeting room. As he walked out, he said to Xie Wenkai, “You two have a good chat.” After saying that, he left the meeting room.
