Although the time at school was boring, Xiao Chen thought it was quite pleasant. At least he felt relaxed and could better integrate into the atmosphere of modern society.
But after all, he had his own things to do. The cultivation during this period of time allowed him to completely recover from the sequelae caused by the Soul Qi Nourishing Technique.
After thinking about it, he decided to go to the company to find Xiao Yufei.
In fact, staying at school is better than going to the company to help Xiao Yufei.
…
When Xiao Chen came to the door of the company, he happened to meet a middle-aged man and a young man walking out.
"Xiao Hao, don't worry, the company is Xiao Yufei's hard work, she will definitely compromise with us in the end, and you can definitely accomplish this."
When the young man heard this, his eyes flashed with excitement, and he said again: "Dad, it is said that Xiao Yufei has a close relationship with the Xia family. Is there anything going to happen?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Don't worry, the Xia family is now fully focused on marching into the provincial capital and has no time to be distracted. What's more, we have your uncle's relationship, so the Xia family has nothing to be afraid of."
Thinking of the uncle who dominated Lanning City, the young man's last worry was dismissed and he smiled with satisfaction.
When the two left, they glanced at Xiao Chen intentionally or unintentionally.
They did not notice Xiao Chen's increasingly gloomy expression.
Although he only heard these few words and could not confirm the specific situation, his intuition told Xiao Chen that Xiao Yufei was in trouble.
…
In the office, Xiao Yufei had a sad look on her face. After hesitation, the secretary next to her Cheng Wenwen persuaded:
"Mr. Xiao, we cannot compromise on this matter. I think we should call the police?"
Xiao Yufei shook her head and said: "It's useless, there are some things that the police can't control, and you don't know the background of the Yang family. There is someone behind them who even Uncle Xia can't afford to offend."
"Are we just going to let them do whatever they want? Or, Mr. Xiao, do you have to agree to their conditions?"
"I don't know what to do now. Let me think about it again. You can go down first!"
Xiao Yufei looked a little tired and waved her hand to let Cheng Wenwen leave.
But at this moment, the door was pushed open and Xiao Chen walked in.
Xiao Yufei said in surprise: "Xiaochen, why are you here?"
"Come here to see you and see if there is anything the company needs my help with!"
When Xiao Yufei heard this, her heart warmed up, and her irritable mood eased a little.
This kid finally knows how to care about people.
"It's rare for you to have such a heart, but just study hard and let me handle the company's affairs."
Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Yufei and said, "But it seems that there are problems that you can't deal with now?"
Xiao Yufei was stunned and asked: "Do you know?"
"I still don't know the whole story, so I came to find out the situation!"
Xiao Yufei shook her head and said: "It's useless, you can't help!"
Xiao Chen curled his lips: "If you don't tell me, how do you know I can't help?"
Xiao Yufei still hesitated, and Cheng Wenwen beside him couldn't help but said: "Young Master, Director Yang forced Mr. Xiao to marry his son."
"What?"
A hint of coldness flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes.
He thought it was just a problem with the company's operation, but he didn't expect someone to force Xiao Yufei to marry?
This has touched his bottom line!
"Wenwen, don't talk too much and get out!"
Xiao Yufei shouted angrily.
Cheng Wenwen bit his lip and said: "Mr. Xiao, even if you lose this job, I can't watch you being forced into desperation by Yang Jianfei and those people."
Xiao Yufei sighed after hearing this: "But what's the use of saying it? It will only cause one more person to worry."
Cheng Wenwen looked at Xiao Chen and thought he was right.
Xiao Chen has been living under the protection of Xiao Yufei and is still just a simple high school student. How can the problem be solved by telling him the matter?
"Mr. Xiao, I'm out then!"
Cheng Wenwen walked out of the office holding a pile of documents.
"You should have a good rest. Maybe after a good sleep, the difficulty will be solved."
Xiao Chen left a word to Xiao Yufei and also left the office.
"Silly boy, how can things be so simple?"
Xiao Yufei smiled helplessly, unaware of Xiao Chen's meaningful expression when he left.
…
After leaving the office, Xiao Chen pulled Cheng Wenwen aside.
"Master!"
Although Cheng Wenwen was a few years older than Xiao Chen, he was staring at Xiao Chen with some fear at this time, not knowing what Xiao Chen was going to do.
"Tell me everything!" Xiao Chen said in a tone that left no room for doubt, "What happened to Yang Jianfei?"
Cheng Wenwen looked at Xiao Chen carefully again, thinking that although Xiao Chen was not familiar with the world, his willingness to share Xiao Yufei's worries proved his growth.
Let’s not talk about whether you are capable or not. As long as you have a sense of responsibility and ambition, you can be regarded as a good man.
"Okay, let me tell you, Mr. Xiao is about the same age as me, but the pressure he endures is much greater than mine."
There was sympathy in Cheng Wenwen's tone.
"Yang Jianfei is one of the veterans of the company. He started the business with your parents. After your parents passed away, he assisted Mr. Xiao in running the company and has been working hard."
Xiao Chen listened carefully and nodded.
Xiao Yufei took over the company at the age of sixteen and knew nothing. With the help of several senior members of the company, she worked hard and got where she is today step by step.
"Although the company belongs to your Xiao family, Yang Jianfei has also made great contributions to the company. Over the years, he has received part of the company's equity from your parents and Mr. Xiao respectively."
Xiao Chen said: "Since he is the veteran of the company, there is nothing wrong with giving him some equity."
"Well, actually if this incident hadn't happened, Mr. Xiao would have always trusted Yang Jianfei. But power and status can often blind a person's conscience."
Cheng Wenwen continued, "As Mr. Xiao gradually adapted to the company and was able to handle the company's large and small affairs on her own, the company became more and more convinced of her, and Yang Jianfei felt that his status was threatened."
"It just so happened that his son Yang Hao was obsessed with Mr. Xiao, so he thought that if Mr. Xiao could marry his son, the company would belong to his Yang family, and he would get the best of both worlds!"
Xiao Chen snorted coldly: "Just refuse it directly. Do you still need to consider it?"
Yang Jianfei made contributions to the company, but the company also gave him shares and did not owe him anything.
Strictly speaking, he still works for the company. The company should be kind to him, so what qualifications does he have to rely on his old age and sell himself off?
"How can it be so simple, just say no?" Cheng Wenwen sighed, "In addition to him, the company also has large and small shareholders. Although the total shares are not as large as Mr. Xiao alone, they are all the backbone of the company."
"Yang Jianfei incited everyone to cause trouble?"
"Almost!" Cheng Wenwen said, "But what Mr. Xiao is afraid of is far more than that."
Xiao Yufei worked hard for the company and finally won some hearts. Plus she alone owns 60% of the shares, it is not difficult to fight against Yang Jianfei's power.
"Yang Jianfei's real support is his brother-in-law Peng Chao, a big shot who can dominate Lanning City and the underground king of Lanning City."
