Chapter 144: Feigning

The meeting room was filled with a tense atmosphere instantly.

The people kept peeking at Su Wan. They had not expected Su Wan to challenge Su Jiankai directly without fear.

This young lady had a lot of guts!

Su Jiankai was the second largest shareholder and him sitting at the chairperson’s seat was actually not appropriate.

Those present understood this but because they were used to Su Jiankai occupying the chairperson’s seat, nobody had objected.

Su Jiankai had sat there for many years. Now that he was forced to give his seat to his niece, how could his pride take this?

Su Jiankai was angry. On the day of Su Yurou’s engagement, he had held on because the young master was present. Now that Jiang Xuecheng was not around, how could Su Wan be so arrogant?

“Su Wan, do you really have to make a scene at Sheng Yuan’s shareholders’ meeting? Where’s your respect for me and your grandfather?”

He wanted to use his status as her senior to suppress her. What a joke!

Su Wan looked around indifferently at the shareholders. Her smile was cold and she had the look of Jiang Xuecheng!

“Uncle, we’re not discussing personal affairs today. Please don’t change the topic. Yes, you’re a senior but the shareholders’ meeting is based on the amount of shares we each own. You have fewer shares than I do, so please step down!”

Facing the pressure by Su Jiankai, Su Wan stood firm and did not give in.

“Su Wan, you...”

Su Jiankai saw Su Wan’s calm look and he wished to have the security guard chase her out but every sentence of hers was reasonable. If he were to chase her out, he would be totally untenable.

At the thought of him not having any deterrent effect on Su Wan, Su Jiankai’s heart bled.

Recalling Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng’s arrogance during Su Yurou’s and Gu Zihang’s engagement party, Su Jiankai gasped and his eyes started blacking out.

“Father, are you alright?”

Su Yurou saw Su Jiankai’s trembling cheeks and her heart shook. She immediately recalled Dr. Li’s advice a few days ago. ‘Your father’s condition is not serious. Let him take his medicine on time and he will recover. Don’t let him be jarred anymore.’

However, did Su Wan intend to make her father angry?

Su Yurou paled and did not care about her image. She roared at Su Wan loudly.

“Su Wan, I’ve endured you for a long time! You ruined my engagement party and jarred my father till he fainted! How could the young master take fancy to such a vicious person like you? The young master would divorce you very soon!”

Su Wan seized her hands tightly and looked steadily at Su Yurou. When she saw the job tag on Su Yurou’s clothes, her look turned extremely cold.

“You’re scolding a shareholder during the shareholders’ meeting. What kind of manager are you? I think we should get a new manager!”

If not for her grandfather’s urge to keep Su Jiankai in his position during their tele-conversation, Su Wan would not take the second best option.

Upon hearing this, Su Yurou’s face turned ghastly pale. When she scolded Su Wan just now, she had totally forgotten that Su Wan was the biggest shareholder and had the power to transfer personnel in the company.

“Father, I...”

Su Yurou frowned and looked at Su Jiankai to seek for help.

Su Wan smiled coldly. Her voice was calm but it was filled with threat. “Uncle, I have forty-six percent of the shares now. Your daughter is being uncooperative. You’d better think carefully about what’s right and what’s wrong.”

Sheng Yuan Group was now unstable, just like a teetering tall building. If Su Wan were to withdraw the forty-six percent of shares, Sheng Yuan would soon close down!

Su Jiankai frowned. He felt gloomy when he saw how the other shareholders were watching them.

After shutting his eyes, Su Jiankai’s look softened. “Wan, Sheng Yuan is also your parents’ asset. Could you bear to see it being ruined in your hands?”

When Su Wan heard the mentioning of her father and grandfather, she sneered, completely unmoved.

“Uncle, don’t put the blame on me. For the sake of Sheng Yuan Group, I bought the shares from Mr. Zhang, Mr. Wang, and Mr. Ouyang to become the biggest shareholder. I should be a person of credit.”

Su Wan paused and shifted her vision to Su Yurou who was looking pitiful.

“Your daughter sowed discord today and accused me of being late. Then, she cursed my marriage to fail. She’s just a little manager, how could she be so arrogant toward the biggest shareholder?”

“I—I didn’t...”

Su Yurou’s whole body trembled, including her lips and she hastily denied.

However, there were many people present who had witnessed everything just now. How could she take back what she had said?

Su Wan’s eyes swept across Su Yurou and she look around at the shareholders who were present. “Everyone here heard what you said. Ms. Su, do you still want to quibble?”

Everyone present exchanged glances. They had never expected a shareholders’ meeting to turn into the Su family’s internal turbulence.

Su Yurou looked at the shareholders pleadingly and her pale face was filled with forbearance. “Everyone, please listen to my explanation. I didn’t mean what I said earlier. I was just anxious and...”

Just then, a shareholder stood up and said, “I can be Ms. Su Wan’s witness. Ms. Su Yurou had indeed made impertinent remarks just now.”

With a shareholder leading this, many trimmed their sails to the wind and stood up too.

“I can be the witness too.”

“I heard it too just now!”

Putting aside the fact that Su Wan was the biggest shareholder of Sheng Yuan, she had Jiang Xuecheng, a man who was too profound to be understood, backing her. If they were to take sides, they had better open their eyes wide.

Seeing how the situation was unfavorable to her, Su Yurou’s anger reached a point beyond its limit.

Su Yurou stared at Su Wan from time to time but saw that she was giving her the cold shoulder and her beautiful face was filled with indifference.

Su Yurou’s accumulated fury finally exploded that moment.

She ran toward Su Wan angrily with a crazed look. She was far from her usual gentle self but looked like a crazy shrew instead.

“Su Wan, don’t you wish to strip me off my position? Okay, do it! You’re not human, treating your cousin sister like this!”

She raised her hand high, wanting to slap Su Wan, but Ah Si who was standing behind Su Wan came forward and pushed her lightly, causing Su Yurou to stagger backward.

The gloom in the bottom of Su Yurou’s eyes became more and more intense. She furiously glared at the man who pushed her. Then, she lost her balance and fell to the ground.

Suddenly, Su Yurou touched her stomach and an idea sprang to her mind.

Su Yurou gasped, screamed loudly and looked miserable. Even her voice started to tremble.

“My stomach is very painful. My baby...”
