Chapter 100 Empire State

Book:Ex-husband, Let Me Go Published:2024-6-2

Lan Si, who was driving, couldn’t help but sigh. His young master was playing tricks on his wife again. He had done so much for her, and he refused to admit it.
What kind of high-sounding reason was that? For benefits? Wasn’t it to avenge the Young Madam and let them pay the price?
“Sigh, when can I see Young Master and Young Madam be lovey dovey with one another?”
After getting out of the car on the side of the road, Ji Yan watched the black car drive far away. Her lonely figure looked extremely fragile as she stood on the side of the road, like a person who had no one to rely on.
But then, she shook her head, and the sadness in her eyes gradually dissipated with the dark clouds in the sky, revealing a tough look.
So what if it was for benefits? He always stood on her side, even though he always stepped on her more fiercely than before when she was alone and helpless. She was not so greedy. It was crazy to expect him to love her sincerely. So as long as she could live with her head raised…
Ji Yan plastered a free and easy smile on her face and walked forward without hesitation.
Besides, Shang Jinshen had felt different that night… Meanwhile, in the car, Shang Jinshen was unhappy. After seeing Ji Yan getting upset, he was even more irritated by what he said.
His face was so gloomy that Lan Si didn’t dare to say a word. After a long time, when Lan Si thought that his young master wouldn’t say anything, Shang Jinshen said, “Check that kid from the Huo family.”
At the end of the day, he was jealous.
It turned out that his boss would become so proud when he was jealous.
“Yes, Young Master. Huo Qing is the only descendent of his family. He is Old Mr. Huo’s favorite grandson. His mother is from the Gao family in the capital city. Huo Qing is also favored by the Gao family. He is indeed a noble young master.”
Lan Si’s efficiency was extremely high. It wasn’t difficult to dig into Huo Qing. He got the results in just a few seconds.
Compared to the status that his young master had achieved even after years of life and death struggles, that Young Master Huo Qing was truly the pride of heaven.
With Huo Qing’s status, he didn’t have to fear Shang Jingshen’s status if he wanted to befriend Ji Yan. Old Mr. Huo’s reason for stopping his grandson was that he felt Shang Jingshen was a lunatic. Naturally, he wouldn’t be willing to use his beloved grandson as an egg against a rock.
After listening to Lan Si, Shang Jinshen’s dark eyes darkened. When he thought of how he called his wife by her name, without a sense of hiding his affection, his expression turned even fiercer.
He wouldn’t allow anyone to humiliate Ji Yan, let alone to let someone be thinking about his wife. That young man had better not cross his line.
After a few days of recuperation, Ji Yan looked much better. Huo Qing’s ointment was indeed useful, and it was even better than the ointment given by Smith. In addition, Mrs. Shang had not returned from the Han family’s home, so no one was oppressing her. Ji Yan was free and happy in Shang Jinshen’s home. She did not just recover physically, but mentally as well.
On this day, she had an appointment with Li Wenjing to discuss the matter of the studio. After being published in a new magazine, Ji Yan’s design was highly praised. Now was a good time to open a studio.
After informing Madam Zhang that she was going out, Ji Yan picked up her small bag and went out. She had an appointment with Li Wenjing at Central Square. A sudden phone call in the middle of the journey made her feel puzzled.
She looked at the unfamiliar combination of numbers. However, the voice came through the other end and rang a bell… It was from someone she hated.
“Ji Yan, just you wait. I’ll take you back to me soon.” After saying that, Shang Yu An hung up the phone with confidence.
Ji Yan raised her delicate eyebrows. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong with Shang Yu An. She hesitated for a long time before she picked up the phone and called Lan Si.
“Young Madam, are you looking for Young Master?” Lan Si’s attitude towards Ji Yan was very good. He was no longer as cold as before.
“Lan Si, Shang Yu An just called me for no reason and said some weird things. Is there anything wrong with where you are right now?”
Lan Si was silent for a moment, then he said, “Young Madam, don’t worry. I’ll talk to Young Master. Just take good care of yourself.”
Hanging up the phone, Ji Yan didn’t think much about it. Anyway, Lan Si said that there was no need to worry. She got off the bus and went straight to Central Square.
Lan Si glanced at the closed meeting room and his eyes darkened. At this moment, the president’s vote was being held in the meeting room. Did Shang Yu An think that he could squeeze his young master out by secretly buying some shares?
“How naive!” Lan Si sneered. With his young master as the boss, he naturally didn’t have to worry.
How would the young master react if he found out about Shang Yu An’s declaration to Young Madam? Lan Si gave a strange smile. When the young master came out, he would naturally report this matter.
Shang Yu An sat in the meeting room confidently. His eyes were filled with contempt and satisfaction as he glanced at the expressionless Shang Jinshen sitting in the main seat. He celebrated internally, “Hmph, let’s wait and see. In a while, the position of the president of the Shang Corp. will belong to me.”
Now, the shares in his hands were 5% more than those in Shang Jingshen’s name, haha!
Shang Jinshen looked coldly at the people on the board of directors who had different expressions on their faces and then at Shang Yu An, who couldn’t wait any longer. He couldn’t help sneering. Just because he hadn’t paid attention to the board of directors for such a long time. Did they all think that he was a pushover?
He sat calmly on the main seat, watching those people solemnly vote. Except for his vote and shares, the highest one was naturally Shang Yu An, who had secretly bribed many directors.
“The performance of Shang Corp. was average in the past year, not many fluctuations. I think that Shang Corp. should be led by someone else. If the company wants to reach a higher level, they naturally need someone with greater ability to be in power.”
An experienced old director said so righteously. He did not hide his thoughts and ignored Shang Jinshen’s words, which made many people take a deep breath.
“Mr. Wang, do you already have a suitable candidate in mind?”
Mr. Wang smiled and said, “I can’t make the call myself. Only those who are recognized by everyone can lead Shang Corp.”
“Let’s all have a vote. What do you think?”
Hearing the declaration from the old men, Shang Yu An smiled proudly, while Shang Jinshen’s lips curled up. Unlike Shang Yu An, his expression was inscrutable.
“The person who received the most votes to be the leader of Shang Corp. is…”
The person holding the list glanced at the silent Shang Jingshen, took a deep breath, and continued, ” Shang Yu An, the deputy general manager of the Shang Corp.”
After reading the name of Shang Yu An, many people stood up and congratulated him. Shang Yu An naturally stood up with a smile on his face.
“Since everyone…” Just as Shang Yu An opened his mouth, someone interrupted him.
Mr. Mo stood up and said seriously, “Although the deputy general manager got the most votes, the leader must not only have the people’s hearts, but also the ability, to get the approval of the people in Shang Corp.”
Shang Yu An looked at Mr. Mo, who was interrupting the conversation, with an unhappy expression. This man was from Shang Jinshen’s side. Hmph, it was just the last struggle of the loser.
