Chapter 143 - 143 143 The Situation Changes Again

Chapter 143: Chapter 143: The Situation Changes Again Chapter 143: Chapter 143: The Situation Changes Again Downtown.

The towering Shengshi Building pierced the sky.

When Sheng Siyuan arrived at the company that morning, he noticed that the employees were more neatly organized than ever, and the members of the board had arrived even earlier than he had.

“Yo, brother, you’re finally back. How was it? Was this month in the States okay for you?”

Sheng Huainan had also come.

He was waiting for him right at the entrance of the company, and as soon as he saw him, he opened his arms and rushed over to hug him with excitement.

Sheng Siyuan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

This man was actually the son of his younger uncle. Back then, he had been born with congenital heart disease and had never found a suitable heart transplant donor. The family was worried about the lack of a successor for Shengshi Group, so they proposed that his father adopt a son.

His father, who was now the old master of the Sheng Family, of course, refused.

But under the unrelenting pressure from the family, who even threatened to use their shares as leverage, the old master had no choice but to agree.

So, now he was his brother in name.

“I suggest you’d better not show up here today because of you, my mood isn’t that good.”

Every line on Sheng Siyuan’s face grew colder, and his voice retained nothing but a bone-chilling ruthlessness!

Sheng Huainan’s face stiffened.

“Brother, what you’re saying… it’s not like I wanted to come; those old geezers called me. You don’t know, while you were locked up in an American police station, the company was in complete chaos.”

“…”

“Oh right, brother, speaking of which, I should remind you, you’d better marry Lin Shuang sooner rather than later. Look at what happened this time; just because you two aren’t married, those old bastards won’t even acknowledge my little nephew, Sheng Xi!”

He suddenly mentioned this again with a sly grin.

At that moment, a terrifying chill erupted from the eyes of the man in front, and his entire presence was frighteningly intense.

“Since when is it your turn to have a say in my affairs?”

“…”

With just that one sentence, Sheng Huainan stood there shivering on the spot, overwhelmed by a tremendous sense of oppression and fear.

He couldn’t utter another word.

The man’s aura was just that imposing!

In the end, Sheng Huainan could only watch begrudgingly as the man went upstairs toward the coveted CEO office on the top floor.

Indeed, he was dying for that chair.

But for so many years, this man had always managed to escape death – five years ago, it was a woman named Yin Hehe who saved him.

Five years later, a lawyer named Lan Yi suddenly appeared!!

“Hey, this is Sheng Huainan, I asked you to check out that lawyer named Lan Yi. Have you found his information?”

As he turned to leave, he picked up his phone and called someone with a murky look on his face.

Unfortunately, the response he received was a disappointment; the person on the phone shook their head.

“Second Young Master Sheng, I’ve been checking for a long time. This Lan Yi, since being pursued by the military, has disappeared without a trace. Maybe he’s already been killed by them.”

“Bullshit!” Sheng Huainan cursed loudly.

“If he were killed, would Sheng Siyuan let it go so easily? That man saved his life!”

Unexpectedly, this person had some brains.

The person on the phone had an epiphany upon hearing this.

“Second Young Master has a point. I’ll check again, but I’ve also received news that your future sister-in-law seems to be investigating this person too.”

He suddenly brought up Lin Shuang again.

Sheng Huainan paused, “She’s investigating too? Why?”

The person on the phone: “I’m not sure about that. If Second Young Master wants to know, maybe you could ask your sister-in-law. Who knows, you might even be able to share the information.”

“…”

The person fell into deep thought.

He actually knew Lin Shuang quite well. He knew that she’d been putting up and shutting up for years to secure her position as the Sheng Family matriarch, but she wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed; she had never succeeded, despite the years.

That’s why he had just egged Sheng Siyuan on to hurry up and marry that foolish woman.

Fools usually do more harm than good. In this way, if he wanted to deal with Sheng Siyuan, his chances would be much greater.

So why did this woman want to investigate Lan Yi?

It was said that she had gone to M Country not long ago but had been sent back and confined to the Lin Family home ever since.

Could it be that she had discovered something?

Finally, his eyes lit up, he threw his phone, and stepped on the gas towards the Lin Family residence.

At this moment, on the top floor of Shengshi Building, Sheng Siyuan had arrived in the conference room.

“Sheng Siyuan, you’re finally back. How about it, have you figured out how you’re going to explain yourself to us?”

In the spacious and bright conference room, as all the shareholders of Shengshi Group gathered, a powerful sense of pressure permeated, and the moment Sheng Siyuan walked in, everyone looked as if they wanted to devour him!

Sheng Siyuan was unfazed.

“Explain what?”

He casually pulled out the chair at the very end, sat down, crossed his legs, and asked with indifference.

“You still ask this question?”

Instantly, as these words fell, the shareholders were seething with rage.

“It’s all because of your failure in judgment, involving yourself in such a massive lawsuit and causing the company hundreds of billions in losses. Now you act as if it’s nothing?”

“Yeah, Sheng Siyuan, aren’t you a bit too arrogant? Shengshi Group isn’t yours alone; it belongs to all of us!”

“If you don’t give a clear explanation today, Sheng Siyuan, don’t blame me for stripping you of your authority.”

The last sentence was accompanied by a shareholder so angry that he was slamming the table.

It was then that Sheng Siyuan finally looked up, his gaze cold and sharp as he swept it towards that person.

“Alright, then before stripping me of my authority, spit out all the money you’ve earned under my lead these years.”

“You—”

His words immediately turned the shareholder’s face green.

This indeed was their Achilles’ heel.

After all, during these years, they really had made a fortune following this leader. In just five years, he had expanded the strength of Shengshi Group by more than a hundred times!

“Nothing to say? Then I’m leaving; I’m busy.”

Seeing these people shut down by his single retort, Sheng Siyuan dusted off his jacket, preparing to leave.

“Siyuan, you’re right. We indeed made a lot of money following you over these years, but rules are rules. You made such a grave mistake in your decision-making this time; you should take responsibility.”

Suddenly, a shareholder at the conference table called out to him again, and this time, his tone was noticeably milder.

Sheng Siyuan turned around.

It was the veteran who, back when he was seriously ill, had insisted on preserving his position as the heir.

“Uncle Peng, I never said I wouldn’t take responsibility, but they came at me wanting to strip me of my authority right away. Plus, they called Sheng Huainan over before I was even dead; now, I’d like to ask, what do you call this behavior?”

He gave him some face and stopped.

However, when he spoke again, his sharp gaze swept across the conference table, instantly turning every face there a patchwork of red and white. It was quite a spectacle.

Director Peng nodded, “What they did is indeed improper, so now we have two solutions: they apologize to you, and to satisfy the shareholders, either you compensate for the entire loss personally, according to the company’s shareholder contract—”

“…”

“Or, you temporarily step down from your decision-making rights until you pass the company board’s assessment again!”

He had not at all expected that this veteran shareholder, on whom he had pinned his hopes, would end up saying such things.
