“Business is business. Zhou Xun, you don’t have to play the emotional card.” The anger in Cheng Songyang’s eyes grew, and he looked at Zhou Xun with a murderous gaze. “It’s your business if you don’t agree with me becoming the CEO of the Ji Corporation, but you shouldn’t disrupt the others voting. Ji Corporation matters are not based solely on what you say.” After saying that, he lowered his eyelids, and looked at the shareholders sitting beside Zhou Xun. “Are you really going to follow Zhou Xun to the dark path and object to me becoming the CEO of the Ji Corporation?”


  “Yes! We are all waiting for CEO Ji to come back!” Zhou Xun said with conviction. “Everyone can see CEO Ji’s contributions to the Ji Corporation over the years. I, Zhou Xun, will not do such a despicable thing!”


  “CEO Ji, CEO Ji, you only talk about CEO Ji!” Cheng Songyang could not help but smash his cup. “But let me ask you, where is your CEO Ji? Right now, I am the head of the Ji Corporation! All the money from the Ji Corporation has also gone into my pocket. You all should be sensible and follow me to get Ji Yan out of the company. When that time comes, will I still treat all of you unfairly? Everyone here has a family and a business. All of you want to live. Who would go against money?”


  “You don’t have to say anymore. We won’t waver because of this small benefit……” Zhou Xun confidently turned his head to look at his old friends, hoping to get their approval. However, his old friends all lowered their heads to avoid his gaze. Their faces were filled with shame.

  Zhou Xun was stunned. He widened his eyes in disbelief. “What’s going on? Do you really believe the words of that scoundrel, Cheng Songyang? Are you also going to betray CEO Ji?!”


  A middle-aged man coughed and said, “Old Zhou, everyone has to make a living to support their families.” He glanced at the people around him and tried to persuade Zhou Xun. “What Liu Kui said makes sense. We’ve all witnessed Mr. Cheng’s contributions to the Ji Corporation during this period. He has the ability to lead the Ji Corporation to a better future. It’s time for us old fellows to make a choice.”


  “That’s right.” The others continued, “Even if we don’t think for ourselves, we should at least think for the employees of the Ji Corporation. You can’t let everyone starve and wait for CEO Ji to come back.”


  There were also a few people who supported Zhou Xun and said that they wanted to wait for CEO Ji to come back. However, their voices were too soft and were completely drowned out by the voices of the others.

  “You……you guys have disappointed me!” Zhou Xun’s fingers trembled. It felt as though it was his first time meeting these friends who had worked together with him for more than ten years. “From now on, we are no longer friends!”


  Friends? In the face of benefits, how much was a friend worth? Up until now, most of them supported Cheng Songyang. Cheng Songyang had won the majority vote and stood up calmly. With a victorious smile on his face, he said, “Zhou Xun, I don’t understand why you are so stubborn. Are you still waiting for Ji Yan to help you? Stop dreaming! Ji Yan is already crippled. Not only is his leg crippled, but his entire body is also crippled. He won’t ever be able to stand up!”


  Cheng Songyang laughed arrogantly, “The era of Ji Yan’s rule is over. From now on, I will lead the Ji Corporation towards a new future!”


  “Clap Clap Clap!” At this moment, a round of applause came from the door. When everyone heard the sound, their eyes widened as if they had seen a ghost. They looked at the person who had suddenly appeared at the door in disbelief.

  Ji Yan was dressed in a silver-gray suit. The close-fitting cut perfectly displayed his flawless figure. He looked handsome and dignified. He stood at the door of the conference room and easily stole everyone’s attention.

  Ji Yan looked at Cheng Songyang with a faint smile and said, “You were speaking pretty well earlier. Why don’t you continue?”


  Cheng Songyang looked at Ji Yan in disbelief. He looked at Ji Yan’s legs, which could stand without any help. “Your…… Your legs are healed?! Impossible, aren’t you crippled?!” He turned his head abruptly and grabbed Liu Kui’s collar. Cheng Songyang’s face was so ferocious as though he wanted to eat someone. “Say, isn’t he crippled?! Hah!”


  “I-I don’t know either……” Liu Kui’s face was pale as sweat poured down his face like rain. “Mr. Cheng, I-I don’t know either……”


  At this moment, the people who had supported Cheng Songyang just now only had two words in their minds: ‘It’s over.’


  They were completely finished. This was the Ji Yan. At the age of nineteen, he had single-handedly supported the Ji Corporation, which was in a precarious situation. He had turned the business world upside down and established the Ji Corporation’s iron-clad status! He simply stood there and managed to overturn the one-sided situation just now. Everyone had completely lost their fighting spirit and was utterly defeated.
