Chapter 549: Who Can Protect Him Forever?

After Sheng Kai heard what Grandpa Sheng said, he looked at Grandpa Sheng in disbelief. “Grandpa, you agreed to it when I initiated the project with Tiffany & Co.. Now that things went wrong, you’re blaming everything on me alone? More importantly, shouldn’t overcoming this crisis as soon as possible be the priority now? I know that you are angry with me for not taking care of you for the past few days. It’s true that it’s Third Brother has been by your side in my stead. But think about it, if I had stayed, who would have gone to Europe to survey the situation there?”

“You always have tonnes of reasons and excuses.” Grandpa Sheng thumped the floor with his walking stick. “But, I don’t hate you at all. And it’s not because of Third Brother taking care of me that I side with him. It’s just because I’ve seen through many things.”

“Grandpa…”

“Third Brother, go to Europe immediately and meet with the eldest young master of the Tiffany family to see if the problem is still reversible. As for Second Brother, if the shareholders present think that he is not fit to be the CEO of Huang Yao, you are free to voice out your opinions now,” Grandpa Sheng said calmly.

“Grandpa, you can’t do this to me. This isn’t fair.”

“It’s you who caused all these trouble. And now, Third Brother is the one taking care of the mess for you. Please be mindful of this.” Grandpa Sheng stopped Sheng Kai from refuting. “Everything will depend on the decision of the board.”

“I suggest that we suspend CEO Sheng from his duties first and let the vice CEO take over temporarily. Let’s see how capable Third Young Master is before we make the final decision.”

“I agree.” The shareholders expressed their opinions one after another.

“You… Have you forgotten how much progress I have made for Huang Yao in the past six months? It’s only one mistake. Do you really have to hold on to it?” Sheng Kai banged the table with his hands angrily and questioned the shareholders.

“Why don’t you think of the mess Sheng Xiao left behind when he quit? If it was not because of me, would Huang Yao be in this current state? Now, you are doubting my abilities just because of one contract? Isn’t it absurd?”

The shareholders knew how capable Sheng Kai was, but they also knew of his greed.

“You have indeed contributed a lot for Huang Yao in the past six months. We’ve seen it very clearly. However, in the last couple of months, haven’t you noticed how you’ve changed? You have been trying to remove anyone and everyone who was against you. You have been causing Third Young Master trouble in public and in private. You should be well aware of it yourself.”

“We don’t just need a capable leader. We also hope for one who is open-minded.”

“Just tell me if you want to get rid of me. You don’t have to make up so many excuses,” Sheng Kai said. “Third Brother, what do you think?”

Sheng Kai thought that Third Brother would think less of himself and willingly withdraw from the competition, however…

Sheng Bowen said, “Grandpa, I don’t have to go abroad. Mr. Chanil has decided to visit Jianchuan. As an entrepreneur, he will try to talk over this with Huang Yao without holding any prejudice.”

“When was this decided?”

“Only just.” Sheng Bowen took out his phone and showed it to Grandpa Sheng.

“We shall discuss the restructuring after the problem is solved.”

So, that meant that he did not refuse the position. He was only afraid that Sheng Kai would try to play dirty tricks again if he took over now. He did not want to be hurt by Sheng Kai before he even became the CEO.

“Great, Third Brother! You bully me with these people. You are really something!” Having said that, Sheng Kai marched out of the meeting room. “Let Third Brother handle everything from now on. I won’t care one bit!”

“It’s alright, Third Young Master. We will help you as much as possible,” said the shareholders immediately.

“In that case, we shall wait until Mr. Chanil comes to Jianchuan,” said Sheng Bowen. “Let me be frank with you. Since this matter has reached this point, I can’t be a hundred percent sure that I can save the situation. I can only try my best to convince him, but I cannot guarantee good results.”

“Just do your best!” Grandpa Sheng encouraged Third Brother. “Well then, let’s end the meeting.”

The directors nodded and left the meeting room. However, Grandpa Sheng did not seem to be ready to leave. He looked at Third Brother. “You weren’t interested in all these before. Why are you going against Second Brother now?”

“Honestly, fighting for power has never been to my liking, Grandpa. However, I want to have a normal life with Xiao Ran as well. You should have seen it yourself that Second Brother and his wife have been oppressing us all this time. I have never wanted to snatch anything away from him, but he thinks of my existence as a big threat. Besides, he thinks that I colluded with Eighth Brother and that I might drag him away from the position as the CEO anytime. So, I don’t want to compromise anymore.”

Grandpa Sheng gave Third Brother a pat on the shoulder. “Since you have decided, just do it. You are different from Second Brother. You have more compassion. To be honest, I didn’t have high hopes for you before because of this, since doing business is like going into a battlefield. That’s why I am always thinking about Eighth Brother, because he is the manifestation of attack and defence. Nevertheless, I think I should not underestimate you. Just do your best.”

Third Brother nodded. It was a rare chance for him to be able to have a peaceful conversation with his grandfather.

Grandpa Sheng had always exploded at the mention of Sheng Xiao’s name.

Now, he had apparently overcome the hurdle in his heart.

Because he knew that if he kept being like his old self, Huang Yao would eventually fall because of countless fights between the brothers.

“But at home, Second Brother…”

“Don’t bother. I’ll handle him,” said Grandpa Sheng.

They could guess Sheng Kai’s reaction without even thinking.

He had been reminding himself that he had succeeded, that he had won, that he must not let Sheng Xiao snatch the credits away from him. But once he failed, once he was in distress, he would always blame Sheng Xiao, for handing the mess over to him. He would question why Sheng Xiao made him suffer.

Although he had been very successful in the past eight to nine months, he had also become more selfish.

Without doubt, Gu Ziling had contributed a lot in this.

Soon, Zhongteng received the news.

“Sheng Kai has been suspended by the board of directors. The news is spreading fast.”

Sheng Xiao did not raise his head when he heard Xu Che’s words. “Predictable. Even without the contract with Tiffany & Co., he would have eventually been suspended because of some other reason. However, his arrogance will not be diminished now that it has grown so much.”

“Then will Third Young Master be in danger? Since they live together.”

“Third Brother will have to resolve it himself. Who can protect him forever?” Sheng Xiao asked Xu Che in return.
