C100

The meeting began, each director reporting on their results for the past year. Each of them spoke a long story, and just listening to them would make one feel drowsy, but Yinyin was listening carefully and seriously. These were things she had to come in contact with in the future, and she couldn't avoid them.

Ruan Fengxiang continued to sit opposite her with a smile. His smile gave her a sense of pressure …

The meeting room was extremely quiet. Only a few directors were reporting on their work.

Please do a summary of Cosco's work for Miss Nguyen Yen, the acting chairman of China Airlines.

Applause.

A faint smile.

No one thought highly of her. Perhaps this meeting would be the Hongmen Banquet, and she would be the one who delivered herself to the door uninvited.

Blade Mountain.

A sea of fire.

No matter what, she had to give it a shot. Even if she crashed into a pile of ashes and stayed where she was, she would not be discouraged.

The smile, the bewitching smile, silenced the rising murmur.

Calm, unhurried. In just a few moments, her pair of agile eyes had already grabbed half of the people's attention in the meeting room. Her light purple clothes made her appear even more mature and calm.

Without a script, Zhong Yuan was her painstaking effort, and even more so, she was the one who wrote it all. In a gamble, she was destined to be the victor.

So her report was concise, vivid, and without any delay. In just ten minutes, everything that was happening in the distance appeared in everyone's ears. Indeed, she had created a legend in Zhongyuan, and at the same time, the rise of Zhongyuan had proven her ability and business acumen.

Someone was nodding, cheering on her report.

But damn it, no one applauded after she finished.

Why, because of her uncle?

Her cold eyes swept over everyone present. Just when she thought there would be no applause, a voice suddenly broke the silence and the faint smile on Ruan Fengxiang's face.

Everyone's gaze turned to the person who had clapped. Then, the applause slowly rang out. Even more intense was the success of the report.

Yinyin looked gratefully at Ke Zhengwei. It seemed that he wasn't here to cause trouble for her, but to help her.

This kind of applause gave off a strange feeling.

Ruan Fengxiang also applauded, but Yinyin could clearly feel the fake intention within the applause.

However, she no longer cared.

This was because she'd already guessed it.

By the time everyone had finished with their reports, it was almost noon and the meeting was about to end.

Next came the election of the most important executive directors.

When the class director announced the candidates' names, the conference room was surprisingly quiet. It was as if they could even hear the sound of a needle dropping.

The five of them, Ruan Yinyin, Ruan Fengxiang …

To vote by secret ballot, it seemed to be more accurate and more democratic this way. This made Yinyin secretly rejoice that she would have some hope as long as she did so. The report from earlier had indeed added a lot to her beauty.

The personnel director handed a piece of paper with five names written on it to each of the directors present.

As long as you cross the names of the people you identify, everything will be decided.

Within three to two minutes, the dozen of people had already completed the process.

The personnel instructor was seriously counting the votes. The atmosphere was a bit tense as everyone was waiting for the results to appear.

Finally, time passed.

The moment the personnel teacher cleared his throat, Ruan Fengxiang smiled at Yinyin, as if he was telling her that the winner of this round would be him.

This was the first time since her debut that she had made a public appearance on such an important occasion. Father and Mother would ask you to help me; I must stand at the highest point of the voyage, because I have the ability to do so.

He turned his head to listen. However, when the personnel director finished announcing the results, everything was displayed in front of everyone. Yinyin and Ruan Fengxiang actually had the same number of votes.

As a result, everything returned to its original point after the ordeal.

She had thought that she was destined to lose, but after exchanging blows, she discovered that she could also support the sky, each taking half of the vote. This meant that she was very popular at the moment, and it seemed that Ruan Fengxiang wasn't the only one that everyone was trying to push forward.

Only democracy.

A smile hung on her face. The one who was worried at this moment wasn't her, but Ruan Fengxiang who was sitting opposite her.

However, the following scene was incomparably cruel, because the two of them had to decide the victor by hand.

When the personnel teacher announced this, Yinyin began to panic. Those crafty old men would definitely vote for him out of fear of offending Ruan Fengxiang. It was clear that this was neither democratic nor fair.

However, this was the choice of the board of directors. She could not have any objections.

The personnel director announced the start of the selection.

At first, she approved of Ruan Fengxiang being the executive board member to raise his hand. However, she was secretly delighted. Because of her status as the chairman, her vote on the board was right behind Ruan Fengxiang.

She scanned everyone present and waited. Then, some people lowered their heads when they saw her. They hesitantly raised their hands and silently counted the number. It had just recovered by a third. Ruan Fengxiang's vote had already been decided.

As long as her vote exceeded his, then this term's position of executive director would be hers.

However, she still couldn't be careless. With three points in the votes, excluding those who gave up, it wouldn't be easy to reach this number.

When it was her turn, the air was an unbearable atmosphere, a feeling of gunpowder burning.

When the personnel director read her name, the directors at the oval conference table looked around.

Everyone was either looking at Yinyin or at Ruan Fengxiang. All of them were very nervous, and those who had raised their hands just now only lowered their heads, not daring to look at Yinyin. Perhaps they were also afraid that this time, the person who ascended to the throne was not Ruan Fengxiang but Yinyin.

Blinking, Yinyin let out a timely cough, reminding those who were still hesitating that she was the acting chairman. She was still young, so she was more qualified to sit in that position.

Someone's arm was slowly lifted up and scanned the area. The numbers were already in his mind. Ruan Fengxiang on the other side had his arms crossed over his chest. He was smiling.

Indeed, this number told Yinyin that she had lost.

However, there was only one more damnable vote.

Then Yinyin saw Ke Zhengwei. She remembered that Ke Zhengwei did not raise his hand during the round of Ruan Fengxiang's vote, so this time, he had the power to support her.

At that moment, Ke Zhengwei was looking at her with blurry eyes, as if he was waiting for her to give out orders. It made Yinyin blush a little. For such an important occasion, he was so focused on her.

As they gazed at each other, everyone's gaze shifted between Ke Zhengwei and her.

She did not say anything. After giving a light nod, she immediately turned her gaze away. Otherwise, the whispers in the meeting room would probably drown her out.

As if he had seen her nod, he slowly raised his hand. Ruan Fengxiang's expression also darkened at this moment.

It was a draw, another draw.

Difficult to tell, between the two.

At this moment, the one who was stunned was the personnel teacher.

He didn't know what to do. The two elections had ended in a draw.

But at this moment, the phone in the meeting room rang. It was a strange sign that something was about to happen.

The personnel teacher heaved a sigh of relief. This phone call could somewhat relieve the pressure on him right now. They were all important people in the flight. Yinyin had fifty-one percent of the shares in the voyage, but she didn't have any real power, so this was the difference between her and Ruan Fengxiang.

Everyone was curious. Yinyin had been so resolute when she left the voyage this time, but why did she suddenly think of coming back?

Only the person in question himself knew this question.

"Hello, it's Director Wu."

Everyone was listening to the conversation between the personnel director and Director Wu.

"What? Are you going to vote as well?" The personnel teacher's question had reached everyone's ears.

Ruan Fengxiang calmly sat in his seat. It seemed that he had already confirmed that the board of directors Wu had voted for him.

Yinyin was somewhat anxious, but no matter how anxious she was, she couldn't do anything about it. All her initiative was on Director Wu on the other end of the phone. Looking at Ruan Fengxiang's expression, she knew that she had lost.

Leave. Perhaps escaping at this moment is not too embarrassing.

The director Wu, she vaguely remembered, had held her when he was a child.

But now, after so many years, she was the mother of two children, and her parents were no longer alive, and although they had left her so much money, she had been so young then that she could only be taken care of by her uncle, and when she came back, it was as if it were no longer hers.

Things are different because Dad and Mom left too early.

Quietly standing up, everyone's attention was focused on the personnel teacher's phone number.

She didn't want to embarrass herself any further. She slowly walked toward the door of the meeting room on the carpet. Ruan Fengxiang was still smiling from the corner of her eyes as if she was certain that she would win.

He pressed the button, and the voices of the personnel director and Director Wu rang out in the conference room.

Originally, people would give up in the future, but since Director Wu called, did he also know the importance of this election?

Perhaps some of them were already dissatisfied with Ruan Fengxiang's arbitrary actions.

Shaking her head, she tried her best.

He could still hear the conversation between the personnel teacher and Director Wu.

"Director Wu, the meeting has reached its final stage. The executive director is being elected. Would you like to vote?"

"Mm, alright. Since we've met, let's vote." Director Wu's aged voice echoed in the conference room. The reason for his future was due to his poor health.

"Read the list of candidates to me."

"acting chairman Miss Nuan Yinyin and director Nuan Fengxiang." The personnel instructor trembled as he read out the names of the two students.
