Chapter 736: Chapter 734: As If Facing a Formidable Enemy
As soon as Hao Li had finished speaking, it was Feng Jiaye who felt the most nervous; he wished he could strangle her right there.
Now that Song Sinian’s whereabouts were unknown, if Xiao Mo revealed at this time that he was the illegitimate child of the Song Family, it would actually enhance his position rather than detract from it.
Feng Jiaye looked at his own mother, who was dragging him down, and instantly felt sick to his stomach.
Xiao Mo snorted coldly, obviously knowing what Feng Jiaye was thinking, but he didn’t even need this identity to successfully control them.
"Before the shareholders meeting, I want to denounce someone," Xiao Mo said, turning to look at Feng Jiaye. "Some people take advantage of the company’s internal chaos to embezzle and take bribes."
Everyone knew without having to think that Xiao Mo was referring to Feng Jiaye.
Old Master Song tapped his fingertips on the table and asked, "Do you have any evidence?"
Xiao Mo was more than pleased to bring up Feng Jiaye’s evidence. He waved to a secretary-like figure behind him, who immediately brought the documents and placed them in front of Old Master Song.
"These are the bribes recently received by the Feng family, two of which come from companies that are unqualified," Xiao Mo said as he pointed out the two companies to Old Master Song.
Feng Jiaye’s face turned ugly immediately, his eyebrows tightly knotted as he turned to look at Hao Li behind him.
Since he hadn’t done this, but if Xiao Mo really had evidence, how could they prove that it was Hao Li who had taken the bribes behind his back?
Indeed, Hao Li’s face turned significantly unpleasant as she murmured softly, "What does it matter? It’s just some money. Such an amount means nothing to Song Group..."
Feng Jiaye’s eyes reddened, and he slapped Hao Li forcefully. "Do you want to ruin me completely?"
Hao Li was stunned by the slap from Feng Jiaye; she hadn’t expected that he would hit her in front of so many people.
Just as she was about to retort, the door of the conference room was flung open by someone from the outside, and two police officers walked in.
"Officers, the people I want to report for embezzlement and bribery are these two," Xiao Mo declared immediately, binding Feng Jiaye and Hao Li together.
Feng Jiaye wanted to explain, but Xiao Mo sneered, "The money Hao Li took as bribes went into your account. You can’t deny this, so don’t try to make your mother take the fall for you."
Upon hearing this, Feng Jiaye realized he had been set up by Xiao Mo, and he knew that even if he didn’t end up in jail today, he wouldn’t secure the presidency of Song Group. He had lost.
He gnashed his teeth at Xiao Mo and resignedly followed the officers out.
Silence fell over the entire conference room.
The shareholders looked at each other, having expected a fierce fight between Feng Jiaye and Xiao Mo in the conference room; instead, Xiao Mo had easily dispatched Feng Jiaye.
With the number of competitors reduced from two to one, the shareholders frowned even deeper.
Those supporting Song Sinian turned almost unanimously towards Old Master Song, hoping for a clear response from him.
Feng Jiaye was indeed of little use, but Xiao Mo wasn’t much better; if Song Group truly fell into his hands, it wouldn’t have much of a future.
Old Master Song didn’t say anything, merely watching Xiao Mo quietly, as if waiting for him to continue.
"In addition to this matter today, I received a piece of news that’s not very good for everyone present," Xiao Mo continued, his voice just as calm as before, as his secretary handed out the documents. "I just received news that Sinian has been found by the river in Lin City, but it’s too late..."
He said these words with an expression of regret, but no one could detect a shred of genuine regret on his face.
His rival had just been taken down, and the transformation of Song Sinian’s disappearance into a death was more than convenient for him.
Even though everyone felt that Xiao Mo couldn’t be completely uninvolved, they couldn’t do anything about it—they had no evidence.
After announcing this news, Xiao Mo’s gaze was fixed on Old Master Song, expecting to see an expression of utmost grief.
Yet Old Master Song was as steady as Mount Tai, showing not the slightest hint of sadness.
Xiao Mo’s brow furrowed, wondering whether Old Master Song had yet to grasp the implication of his words.
Or did he still harbor hope for Song Si?
Xiao Mo cleared his throat and said, "Since the matter involving Song Sinian has settled, I suppose I should naturally assume the position of acting president of Song Group."
"Hold on!" just as Xiao Mo finished speaking, Feng Xixi spoke up, "Whether you can be the acting president of Song Group or not requires one more person’s approval."
Xiao Mo saw the person stopping him and his face shifted.
He almost warned Xia Wenjin with a glare, as if complaining about her involvement when it was all coming to a close—was Feng Xixi really going to turn against him at the last moment?
Xiao Mo suppressed his urge to curse and looked at her, "Who else’s approval do we need? Could someone bypass Old Master Song?"
Just as he finished speaking, the conference room door was opened again, and the person who entered was Song Sinian.
"I wonder if I qualify?" Song Sinian said indifferently, his usual demeanor revealing none of his emotions.
But Xiao Mo appeared to be facing a great enemy.
Why was Song Sinian still alive?
Hadn’t he disappeared?
Thinking about the previous incident involving someone else standing in, his brow knitted—could this Song Sinian also be an impostor?
His demeanor darkened immediately, "How can you prove you’re Song Sinian and not someone impersonating him?"
For a moment, the shareholders in the conference room looked at Xiao Mo as if they were looking at a fool.
That demeanor, that appearance—if someone could indeed mimic that, it would surely be a miraculous feat of acting.
It was evident that Xiao Mo was spouting nonsense now that he saw Song Sinian’s return had dashed his hopes of becoming the acting president.
The shareholders who previously supported Song Sinian suddenly felt empowered. No wonder Old Master Song had kept silent; it seemed he knew that Song Sinian had returned.
"Sinian, you’ve really put your grandfather through a hard time during your absence. Where have you been lately? Why haven’t you been in contact for so long?"
"Yes, we’ve all been incredibly worried during your recent disappearance."
"If you hadn’t come back soon, someone else would have taken your place."
...
The rising and falling voices made the shareholders with hidden agendas look distinctly uncomfortable.
But the person with the most unpleasant expression was still Xiao Mo.
He had thought his ascension to the presidency of Song Group was set in stone, only for Song Sinian to return unexpectedly in the middle.
