Snatching Women from the Male Lead-Chapter 79: The First Vote

An older man named Older Zhang had a large bump on his forehead, looking rather pitiful.

Qin Zhao laughed out loud.

Older Zhang glared at Qin Zhao angrily, "Was it you who threw that pen just now?!"

Qin Zhao readily admitted: "You deserved it for not showing respect for your elders."

Older Zhang weighed his old bones and knew he was no match for Qin Zhao and the others, but he still backed down, looking very embarrassed.

So he raised his voice, trying to regain some momentum, "Am I not right that a scourge like Nan Yue should withdraw from the election early?!"

Qin Zhao said, "Who do you think you are to decide whether she should withdraw or not."

"You! You! You..."

Older Zhang was so angry he couldn't speak clearly anymore. He no longer had the nerve to stay, so he just stormed off!

With the troublemaker gone, Nan Yue went on, "The drop in the group's stock price does not mean we have been abandoned by the market. From the extremely fast rebound in the price, we can see a thing or two.

The Nan Group is still an asset recognized by the market.

But relying solely on our industry structure to determine the value of the group is not a long-term solution.

After all, we can choose to operate these projects, but so can others. If we don't progress and optimize, sooner or later we will be replaced."

Next, Nan Yue projected and explained to everyone her future plans for the Nan Group.

Some people who had been very against her before were now quite impressed after listening to her presentation.

At the end of her speech, she said, "So I hope everyone will vote for me and give me a chance to lead the Nan Group to its next peak."

The conference room fell silent.

Clap, clap, clap, clap!

Startled by the excited applause, everyone looked towards the source of the sound.

Qin Zhao calmly accepted everyone's gaze and laughed, "Come on, clap, why are you staring blankly, Nan Miss spoke so well!"

Xiao Ning and Shen Yixuan also started clapping.

The sparse applause gradually turned into neat and enthusiastic applause.

Nan Yue thanked everyone, "Thank you all for humoring me, please give me more guidance in the future.

No matter how much of this applause is sincere or perfunctory, I don't care, as long as the end result is good."

As the last candidate, Qin Zhao, pushed by Xiao Ning, walked towards the podium. Just as she was about to brush past Nan Yue, Nan Yue stopped her.

Qin Zhao leisurely waited for her to say something.

Nan Yue bent down and whispered in Qin Zhao's ear, "As long as you give up the election, I'll let you be on top in the future."

Qin Zhao instantly pictured it in her mind, her ears instantly turning red!

But she didn't respond and chose to move on.

Nan Yue went back to her seat, next to Li Shuyun, and the two exchanged tense, confrontational looks!

Li Shuyun said lightly, "After you lose the vote later, I don't mind lending my shoulder for you to cry on.

After all, you are my good daughter."

Nan Yue narrowed her eyes and said, "After you lose the election later, Ms. Li, and get so dizzy with anger, I'll be happy to take you to the hospital.

After all, you are my good mother."

The two simultaneously gave a dead fish eye, and stopped looking at each other.

Qin Zhao lightly coughed to indicate that people should not make any noise.

Since Qin Zhao was in a wheelchair and couldn't reach the microphone, Xiao Ning very perceptively brought it over for her to hold so she could speak.

Seeing Xiao Ning's extraordinary temperament with a faint big boss aura, everyone took another look at her.

At the same time, they were increasingly resentful of Qin Zhao's already arrogant aura before she even spoke.

Ye Chenxi in particular, just seeing her made him feel like he was about to explode. If blowing himself up could take Qin Zhao with him, he would probably be willing!

Only Shen Yixuan looked at Qin Zhao eagerly, eyes brimming with tears, eagerly anticipating her speech.

Her mind was filled with the image of Qin Zhao jumping into a sea of money.

Before being lit on fire by everyone's gaze, Qin Zhao spoke, "I advise everyone to vote for me.

That way, the Nan Group will have another great opportunity."

Everyone: "..."

Who's going to drag this bossy lady away?

Xiao Ning couldn't suppress the smile at the corner of her mouth. She said to Qin Zhao, "Qin sister, you are so spicy!

You're the best!"

Shen Yixuan excitedly stood up!

"Well said!"

Clap, clap, clap!

The applause was deafening!

Everyone looked at Shen Yixuan, secretly starting to wonder if there was something wrong with their values for not clapping for Qin Zhao?

So they quietly started clapping.

Nan Yue also laughed along, politely clapping for Qin Zhao.

In the end, only a few people like Ye Chenxi, Xu Yiyang, and Li Shuyun still held their ground.

Qin Zhao was satisfied with the spectacle and returned to her seat amidst the enthusiastic applause.

The conference room slowly quieted down again. The host announced the start of voting!

Then everyone took out their pens and filled out their ballots.

This process took ten minutes.

Afterwards, someone collected the ballots and counted them publicly.

Half an hour later, the host announced the voting results:

Li Shuyun received 25% of the vote

Nan Yue received 18% of the vote

Qin Zhao received 15% of the vote

Chen Zhan received 9% of the vote

Li Sheng received 3% of the vote

......

This unexpected result stunned the conference room into silence.

Nan Yue disappointedly lowered her eyes slightly.

After a few minutes, discussions gradually started up.

"How could this be? Who voted for Li Shuyun, can they please stand up...so I can beat them up!"

"What about these two? The purpose of this board meeting is to elect a chairperson, not a beauty pageant!"

"This is so frustrating!"

"I think it's not bad, maybe the chairperson's wife is capable!"

......

Ignoring all the voices, Li Shuyun stood up and smiled at everyone, "Thank you all for your trust in me. I will do my best in the future to manage the Nan Group well. I won't let you down..."

"Wait a minute!" Li Shuyun was interrupted mid-sentence by a man's voice!

Her heart skipped a beat as she looked in shock at Zhou Ye, who stood up holding a stack of documents.

"Lawyer Zhou, what do you want to say?" Li Shuyun asked, pretending to be relaxed.

Everyone's eyes also focused on him.

Zhou Ye said in a loud voice, "A few days ago, Chairman Nan transferred 9% of the shares to Ms. Li Shuyun, but there was a condition in their agreement!

If Ms. Li Shuyun's voting rate is higher than Ms. Nan Yue's in the board meeting, the share transfer will be void!

At the same time, those shares will be directly transferred to Ms. Nan Yue!"

Upon hearing this, Li Shuyun rushed to Zhou Ye like crazy, snatched the agreement, and quickly skimmed through it, shouting, "How is this possible? This can't be! Nan Chenghui would not do this to me!

Why!!"

Zhou Ye: "Ms. Li, why are you so surprised? The same clause is also in the agreement you hold."

In her excitement after receiving the shares, Li Shuyun didn't bother to read the agreement carefully at all!

She said in despair, "All my life I've been shrewd, but in the end I was schemed against by my own bedmate. What an absurdly laughable life!"

She threw down the agreement and strode straight out of the conference room.

Her lonely and bleak silhouette even made Nan Yue, her estranged daughter who didn't like her, feel bad about looking at her for too long.

Nan Yue withdrew her gaze and looked at Zhou Ye, asking, "Does the share transfer you mentioned take effect immediately?"

Zhou Ye nodded.

With this change of events, the first vote could only be voided.

The host announced, "Please get ready, everyone. The second vote will be held in fifteen minutes."

Shen Yixuan looked at Qin Zhao uneasily, "With the second vote, the winner is already certain. It looks like you'll have to leave disappointed."

Xiao Ning said to Qin Zhao, "Qin sister, you should go seduce Nan sister.

You can't lose!

I've staked my big money-making venture on you. To buy Nan Group shares, I sold my mid-levels mansion in Hong Kong!"

Nan Yue also came over, arching her brow at Qin Zhao, "Baby, my previous offer still stands, think about it?"

Qin Zhao lazily stretched and said, "Actually I prefer being on the bottom."

Nan Yue, Xiao Ning, Shen Yixuan: "..."

Fifteen minutes later, when the host was about to speak again, the conference room door was pushed open!

Ye Fei walked in. She walked so quietly that she attracted everyone's attention in a matter of seconds!

Ye Fei sighed to herself, thinking, I wish I could turn invisible.

Ye Chenxi watched Ye Fei approach step by step in horror, sweat steaming from his back to create a foggy effect!

Ye Fei found an empty seat and sat down, saying, "Uh? Why is everyone looking at me, please continue voting."

The host belatedly announced, "The second vote begins!"
