CHAPTER 126
All attention immediately shifted toward Bai Renxiang. They too were surprised at the iciness of a lady like her. Her voice had a little hint of anger in it and Charlie did not fail to notice it.
"Hmph. Are you the one that is fit for the position?" Vice President Jiang Bojing scoffed at her.
"I am the one asking the questions now Mr Vice President. Who do you think is fit for the position of CEO? You?" This time she walked closer to him and stopped three steps away from him making sure he knew that she did not feel the slightest bit of intimidation from him.
"I have been supporting and running this company for so many years while you are just coming here for the first time in your life. I do not see the reason why I should not be the CEO instead of you," he said with his pride in his deep voice.
"Support? Does a business company as huge as Jiang's Corporation needs your support? You talk as if the company was saved by you." She said.
"Also even if you have been supporting, is that not what every employee in the company is supposed to do? Are you also implying that all employees in this company are fit to be CEOs because they support the business?"
Everyone became speechless at her words. What she said indeed made sense to their ears. All of them have been supporting the company for years also. While Jiang Bojing was trying to think of another suitable reason why he should be CEO and not her, another voice spoke out.
"Looks like I was worrying too much about my granddaughter."
They all turned their attention to the voice that had just spoken. Immediately their gaze landed on the person, they all bowed respectfully.
"Greetings Chairman Jiang," they all said.
Old man Jiang nodded his head at their greetings as he gestured for them to raise their heads.
"Last but not least, I was the one running the company for so many many years even before your father got married to your mother. Just because I let you handle some things in the company does not mean that you have been in charge boy," he added to what Bai Renxiang had said earlier.
Old man Jiang wanted to make sure that his granddaughter does not encounter any difficulty or pests when she arrived at the company so he decided to come.
Just as he had thought, his younger brother's son did not fail to show himself. He behaved just like his father. The driver that drove the car he was in, noticed the little crowd gathered in front of the company's entrance before he drove into the compound.
On hearing it, Old man Jiang decided to come down from the car quietly to not alert everyone. He walked a little bit closer to the people that gathered and he heard the exchange of words between his granddaughter and his nephew.
He was proud immediately he heard Bai Renxiang's words. She reminded him of how his wife would speak to his younger brother when he would talk about something that irked her or her husband, which is him. He sighed as her face flashed through his mind.
On hearing the last words of Bai Renxiang, the Old man could not help but remark causing everyone to look at him. Bai Renxiang walked up to her grandfather with s blooming smile on her face.
"Good morning grandpa. How are you?" She asked as they exchanged hugs.
"I am fine. I just wanted to come and help my granddaughter quiet down some nuisance but it seems she can handle them herself," he commented.
"You do not have to trouble yourself over such trivial things. Besides, your assistant is here to help," she said as she cast Charlie a quick appreciative glance.
"I see. Ah, the sun is quite energetic today. Let us go inside," he said.
Bai Renxiang walked along sides her grandfather as they made their way into the company. But before they entered, Old man Jiang stop in front of his nephew as he used his eyes to seize him from top to bottom and vice versa before he shook his head.
"Be careful with what that tongue of yours and the words you allow to jump out of your mouth. We might never know when it will get missing," he whispered to Vice President Jiang Bojing and they walked into the building followed by the men and the women outside.
"You should have not acted rashly Jiang Bojing," one of the men outside spoke to Jiang Bojing.
"Hmm. Quan is right. You should not let your anger get the best of you," another man spoke.
The two men are followers of Vice President Jiang Bojing. They are the ones that did not agree with Old man Jiang's decision of making his daughter's daughter the CEO.
Everyone on the board knows that Old man Jiang and his wife could not bear a child so they adopted one. But seeing as the man was hell-bent on his decision, they agreed as far as his granddaughter would lead the company well and they feared the wrath of the old man
But among the agreement, these two men still want the vice president to take on the position of CEO, because of the benefits they would get from it.
"I have another plan. First of all, the two of you should get close to this new CEO. Make sure to gain her trust first. Once that is achieved, we can start making our move," Jiang Bojing said.
"Alright. We will do as you say," Mr Quan agreed.
"Yes. But we still have to be wary of the assistant of the chairman." After the agreement, they quickly entered the building and meet up with the rest of their colleagues so as not to raise any suspicion.
