Chapter 901: The Hidden Chess Piece (5)

After the incident this time, Ruan Zeyan definitely needed to purge the interior of Yuan Teng Corporation as well as distinguish boundaries clearly with Ruan Shiyi’s clan. He decided to make Yuan Teng Corporation private. Once procedures of privatization are underway, then it would be a difficult battle.

It was easy to deal with the shareholders who shared a different surname. They originally either all have their own businesses or hold a position in the corporation. Even if their shares are retrieved back, they will not suffer a major impact.

Also, Ruan Zeyan took great care of them. After taking back the shares, their rewards were equally generous.

However, the members of Ruan Shiyi’s clan were different. The majority of them were similar to Old Fifth and Old Seventh. They had relied on Yuan Teng Corporation to support them over these years and were used to asking Ruan Qishan and Ruan Zeyan for things. Taking back their shares was like asking for their lives.

Within these members, few have their own businesses. Most of them had planned on relying on Ruan Zeyan to support them for the rest of their lives, and then after Ruan Mingxiao becomes the head, he will let Ruan Mingxiao raise their grandsons for the rest of their lives.

This thought was already stubbornly embedded in their heads. They believed that since Ruan Zeyan was the head, his main responsibility was to support them. They didn’t have to do anything and did not need to give anything up. As long as they had the surname Ruan, then they will be rewarded.

This train of thought was the exact thing that Ruan Zeyan wanted to remove.

He could arrange for those who want to come to work in the company. However, they needed to work hard. There was no way he was going to allow a lazy person to stay at the company.

Ever since the privatization process began, all of the members of the Ruan Clan have filed complaints. This time, Ruan Qishan was on Ruan Zeyan’s side. On the one hand, it was because he was his son. On the other hand, it was because, after the incident with Ruan Guosheng, Ruan Qishan felt coldness toward all of the members in the Ruan Family Clan.

In the large shareholder meeting, when Ruan Guosheng sat on the Chairman’s seat, the only one who questioned him and unswervingly supported Ruan Qishan and Ruan Zeyan was Boardmember Geng as well as those shareholders who shared a different surname.

His clan members, on the other hand, the ones who have relied on him and his son to support them for so many years, did not utter a single word.

Perhaps from their point of view, it didn’t matter who was the head of the house, as long as they continued to support them and did not go against their interests.

It was exactly these thoughts and actions that made Ruan Qishan feel thoroughly disappointed in them.

Since there was no way to convince Ruan Qishan, the clan members began to seek out Mdm Ruan and Wang Yazhi, wanting them to convince Ruan Qishan and Ruan Zeyan.

The clan members naturally ignored Ling Tianya. They all knew that Ling Tianya was not someone they could easily fool. Also, since she was Ruan Zeyan’s wife and shared a deep bond with Ruan Zeyan, there was no way she wouldn’t support her own husband.

However, what they hadn’t considered was that this time around, Mdm Ruan refused to see anyone. No matter how much they pleaded and loitered, Mdm Ruan did not open the door.

And Wang Yazhi, who the clan members have always regarded as a simple idiot, was also firm this time. She followed in Mdm Ruan’s footsteps and did not wish to meet anyone. Even if she were to go out and be halted by the clan members, Wang Yazhi simply said, “I do not participate in company matters.”

By bothering Mdm Ruan and Wang Yazhi, the clan members thoroughly angered Ruan Zeyan. He began to use thunder-like strategies to quicken the process of retrieving the shares.

When Zhang Ke arrived, Ling Tianya was making soup in the kitchen.

For many days now, Ruan Zeyan had been leaving home early and returning late. Ling Tianya was worried about his health. His wound had not yet healed.

Therefore, she asked for a prescription from Butler Zhong and was in the kitchen, personally making soup for Ruan Zeyan. Zhong Chuchu was her assistant.

When the servants at the door saw Zhang Ke tugging a large box, he walked over, “Assistant Zhang, the box is probably very heavy. I’ll help you carry it.”

Zhang Ke shook her head, “It’s alright. Where’s my teacher?”

The servant pointed toward the kitchen, “The young miss is making soup for the young master in the kitchen.”
