Chapter 798 - 791: Defending the Company (Part 10)
When the shareholders Shi Helin first saw the document, they were already certain of its authenticity and legal validity.
There was no denying that Bai Yiran indeed now had the power of veto.
But with things at this stage, was such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be given up just like that?
It wasn’t just Qi Hui who was unwilling to concede; even Shi Helin were unwilling!
Bai Yiran wiped away her tears, looked at Qi Hui and the other shareholders, and solemnly said, "I do not agree with the resolutions from today’s shareholder meeting!"
The moment Bai Yiran spoke, everything that had transpired before seemed to have gone up in smoke.
Qi Hui glared at Bai Yiran, her eyes wide with anger, "So what if you have veto power? You can only use it once on the same resolution! As long as we convene the shareholder meeting again, there’s nothing you can do to veto me again!"
"Is that so?" Bai Yiran faced Qi Hui and the others directly, "Then let’s see what happens!"
Qi Hui stared hatefully at Bai Yiran, her whole face twitching with intense fury, "Fine! We’ll see what happens!" With that, she left the meeting room filled with anger and unwillingness.
Old Shi and Old Lin exchanged glances, knowing that nothing more could be done today, and then left the meeting room with darkened faces.
The remaining shareholders looked at each other and, seeing that Qi Hui and the two leaders had left, knew there was no point in staying either, so they also left one after another.
Old Xu timidly followed behind the other shareholders, afraid that Bai Yiran would call his name again. Previously, Bai Yiran had only had the title of the president’s wife, but now it was different. She was the person with the most shares in Huamei International, and with that, her status and position were not the same.
But even though Old Xu was intentionally trying to lower his presence, he was still called out by Bai Yiran when he passed by her.
"Uncle Xu!" Bai Yiran’s cold voice came from behind Old Xu.
Old Xu halted, turned around with a forced smile, "What’s the matter?"
"Nothing much." Bai Yiran smiled, then said, "I just wanted to remind you to recognize the reality before you, and realize who can truly be relied upon by the Xu Family."
Upon hearing this, Old Xu broke out in a cold sweat. Bai Yiran was forcing him to take a side!
Yet, at this moment, he couldn’t make an immediate decision.
This war over governance rights was clearly not over, and from the current situation, Old Xu was unsure of who would ultimately win or lose.
So, he dared not rashly decide to take sides, lest he choose wrong and face complete disaster in the future.
Old Xu awkwardly chuckled, "Well, I know, I’ll go back and think it over..."
Bai Yiran nodded, not pressing Old Xu for an immediate answer, and merely smiled, "Give my regards to Mrs. Xu."
"Sure, sure!" Hearing Bai Yiran speak those words, Old Xu felt as if a great burden had been lifted, and quickly left the meeting room.
It wasn’t until all the shareholders had left that Bai Yiran collapsed to the ground as if her soul had left her body.
Cheng Gang, seeing this, hurriedly rushed over to support her, eyes full of distress.
"Yiran, are you alright? Don’t scare your uncle!" Cheng Gang helped Bai Yiran up, only to find her face frighteningly pale, devoid of any color.
Bai Yiran shook her head, suddenly laughed, and looked up at Cheng Gang, "Uncle, I did it. I kept Leng Yichen’s company safe, I kept it safe..."
Cheng Gang, seeing Bai Yiran like this, instantly had tears welling up in his eyes, "Yes, yes! You kept it safe!"
Bai Yiran looked down at the documents recording all of Leng Yichen’s assets, "Leng Yichen, where on earth are you..."
