Chapter 377 - 377 378 They All Wish Him Dead

377: Chapter 378: They All Wish Him Dead 377: Chapter 378: They All Wish Him Dead Most of the shares of Liang Group were held by Liang Shipeng and his wife.

If Liang Shipeng did indeed pass away suddenly and Liang Bin was to take over his position, chaos would certainly ensue within Liang Group.

Liang Shipeng had just managed to fall asleep, so Zhang Jing asked them not to wake him for the time being.

After Zhang Jing, Zeng Xiang, Zheng Liang, and the two lawyers left the high-end hospital ward and reached the garden below the hospital, Zeng Xiang said, “Mrs.

Liang, we hope you will support handing over the management of the company to the board of directors.”

“I will consider this matter,”

Zhang Jing said.

“Mrs.

Liang, given the severity of Chairman Liang’s condition, which you are well aware of, if Chairman Liang were to pass away suddenly and, with your shares being the most substantial, if Young Master Liang sought to take over Chairman Liang’s position, chaos would certainly erupt within Liang Group, and our years of hard work would be for naught.”

Indeed, many such corporate enterprises have issues arising precisely during the second or third generation.

Thus, Zeng Xiang and his colleagues were very clear about this.

Seeing that Zhang Jing remained silent, Zeng Xiang continued, “Mrs.

Liang, if Young Master Liang is truly capable, we have no objections to him replacing Chairman Liang.

After all, you two founded the company together.

However, as his mother, you should be more aware of Young Master Liang’s situation than we are.”

“I understand this matter; I’ll discuss it with Old Liang,”

Zhang Jing appeared somewhat impatient.

After all, Liang Group belonged to the Liang family, and it wasn’t up to outsiders to meddle.

As for the situation with Liang Bin, Zhang Jing was well aware that if he were to manage the company, it would be a disaster.

However, with Liang Shipeng still alive, the fact that the board of directors and the executives were contemplating this now was displeasing to her.

Moreover, Zhang Jing was considering calling Ye Qiu to treat Liang Shipeng.

If Ye Qiu managed to cure Liang Shipeng’s illness by then, there would be no need to worry about the succession issue for the company anymore.

However, Zhang Jing knew that Ye Qiu was not agreeable to this, so speaking more about it now was pointless.

“You all go back to the company first!”

Zhang Jing said.

“We would like to wait for Chairman Liang to awaken, and moreover, we’ve brought a lawyer and a will.

We hope that Chairman Liang will sign this will.”

A will?

Zhang Jing felt even more uncomfortable upon hearing this, though she also understood what the executives were trying to do.

But she hadn’t expected them to be so quick in forcing Liang Shipeng to draft a will.

Instead of leaving, Zhang Jing went up to Liang Shipeng’s private, high-end ward.

Zeng Xiang and Zheng Liang followed her, and upon entering, the two of them along with the other two lawyers quietly sat inside, waiting.

In the late afternoon, around five o’clock, when Liang Shipeng awoke, he started coughing non-stop, spitting phlegm and blood, and feeling pain all over his body.

When he asked a female nurse to get him some pain medication, the nurse said, “Chairman Liang, if you take this pain medicine, you temporarily cannot take any herbal medicine.”

Around this time, it was about when Liang Shipeng would take the herbal medicine prescription from Zhu Yunkai, but traditional and Western medicines could not be administered at the same time.

“I’m almost dead now, why bother with that!”

Liang Shipeng said angrily.

While the female nurse was preparing his pain medication, she unexpectedly saw Zeng Xiang and Zheng Liang approaching.

Just a couple of days ago, he had already made it clear that all matters concerning the company were to be decided by the board of directors.

“Chairman Liang, are you feeling better?”

Zeng Xiang hastily asked.

“I might be dying soon.”

Liang Shipeng responded.

“Old Liang, we want to discuss something with you.”

“What’s the matter?”

Liang Shipeng suddenly asked.

“Our board of directors and senior management hope you will make a will, handing over the management of the group to the board or to professional managers.”

Zeng Xiang said.

Clearly, once Liang Shipeng heard this, he understood exactly what the board meant.

Of course, he knew his son too well; if something really happened to him, according to Liang Shipeng’s wish, he would have wanted Zhang Jing to manage the company, not Liang Bin.

However, Zhang Jing rarely came to the company now, so the group’s board hadn’t considered giving the management to Zhang Jing.

But now, Liang Shipeng was very angry.

“There’s no rush for this matter.”

Liang Shipeng said.

“What if you suddenly were no longer here and the company falls into chaos?”

This was bound to happen!

Because Liang Bin was there and Liang Shipeng had not made a decision, and Zhang Jing wasn’t capable enough, chaos would surely ensue.

And because of the fight for management control, the company would definitely become chaotic.

Even now, the news that Liang Shipeng had late-stage lung cancer had already affected the group’s stock market performance, with three consecutive days hitting the lower circuit breaker.

The situation within the company and with its business partners was also greatly affected.

Liang Shipeng and Zhang Jing looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

However, Liang Shipeng finally said, “If something really happens to me, hand over the management to Zhang Jing.”

This?

Zeng Xiang and Zheng Liang had not expected Liang Shipeng would want to hand over management to Zhang Jing.

However, they felt that having Zhang Jing take over would be much better than having Liang Bin.

When Zeng Xiang learned of Liang Shipeng’s decision, they prepared to leave, but Zeng Xiang still reminded, “Old Liang, Mrs.

Liang, there’s something I need to say, please don’t be upset.”

“What’s the matter?

Go ahead.”

Zeng Xiang had served the company for a long time and was also the deputy chairman of the board, so Liang Shipeng naturally knew them well.

“Old Liang, you are still alive, but there’s already a rumor going around outside saying you will soon be gone, and Young Master Liang will take over your position.”

Zeng Xiang said.

“Who spread this rumor?”

Liang Shipeng asked angrily.

“It’s not someone else, it’s your own son; today he even brought a young woman around the group’s headquarters.”

Zeng Xiang said.

Upon hearing this, Liang Shipeng was furious.

He hadn’t expected his son to be in such a hurry, even more so than the board, eager for him to leave this world so soon.

Liang Shipeng became so angry that his breathing became more labored, his coughing worsened, and his hemoptysis got more severe.

While Zeng Xiang still wanted to say something, Liang Shipeng had already passed out.

Zhang Jing hurriedly called He Wencai, who, after examining Liang Shipeng, said, “The patient’s condition is very serious, he cannot be subjected to any more shocks.”

Zhang Jing looked at Zeng Xiang and said, “You better leave quickly, don’t stay here any longer.”

Zeng Xiang had no choice but to leave with the lawyer, both of whom still wanted Liang Shipeng to sign that will, but now it seemed impossible.

“They are all no good, so eager for me to die.” Liang Shipeng thought bitterly after waking up.

He really hadn’t expected that the senior executives of the group, including his own son, all wanted him to die immediately.
