Chapter 863 - A Direct Confrontation (6)

Ruan Guosheng couldn’t wait anymore and called Mark, but he didn’t pick up. As the irritation on the shareholders’ and clan members’ faces became more and more apparent, Ruan Guosheng became impatient.

“Dad, is there a problem?” Ruan Fusheng asked in a hushed voice.

“No, no problem,” he said. “Ruan Qishan only has a few guards with him while Mark has so many men with him.” Ruan Guosheng firmly believed that nothing would go wrong. They’d planned so thoroughly, nothing could possibly go wrong.

Or, perhaps, Ruan Guosheng was subconsciously resisting the possibility of failure, and so he chose to believe that nothing would go wrong on Mark’s side, that this would go through smoothly.

Deluding himself into confidence.

Ruan Guosheng wanted to succeed so desperately. Now that things had come this far, he was staking everything on this plan. He couldn’t afford to fail. He must succeed!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

As time ticked by, one of the shareholders finally couldn’t take it anymore and asked, “Director Ruan, what did you call all of us here for today?”

After one person broke the silence, others started voicing their doubts as well.

“That’s right, Director Ruan? The president is absent because he’s on a business trip, but why isn’t the chairman here then?”

“We thought that the chairman had an announcement to make, but he isn’t here. Does Director Ruan have something to announce?”

“But even if the chairman is absent, isn’t it a little inappropriate for Director Ruan to sit in the chairman’s seat?”

“That’s right, besides, isn’t your son, Ruan Fusheng, supposed to be managing a factory in North Africa right now? To my knowledge, the chairman hasn’t approved his return. Even if we disregard the fact that he returned without permission, why is he sitting in the chairman’s seat?”

The questions from the shareholders were getting under Ruan Guosheng’s skin. His face was a stiff mask.

For years, everyone had understood the position that Ruan Guosheng had in Ruan Teng Corporation and in the Ruan family. Although he had the title of a director, he was restricted by Ruan Qishan and Ruan Zeyan in every way.

Although Ruan Guosheng was the biological son of the old man, he was the son of a concubine. He was an illegitimate son to be hidden from the public eye. They appeared to respect Ruan Guosheng, but that was only because Ruan Qishan was kind toward the brothers Ruan Guosheng and Ruan Guofu.

Since even the chairman was courteous towards them, the rest would naturally do the same out of respect for the chairman.

But now Ruan Guosheng was sitting in the chairman’s seat. Wasn’t he getting ahead of himself to do such a thing while the chairman was absent?

Ruan Fusheng didn’t have as much patience as Ruan Guosheng. How much had he suffered in North Africa in the past few years, how much mockery had he endured?

What Ruan Fusheng hated most was others mentioning the matter of North Africa in front of him.

Now, not only had they mentioned it, they even questioned if he was qualified to sit on the chairman’s seat.

Ruan Fusheng slammed his hand on the table. “Why aren’t I qualified? I am chairman now!”

An uproar ensued.

The chairman position was his? Ruan Zeyan was still perfectly healthy and well, how could it be his? What wishful thinking!

Ruan Yusheng took note of everyone’s response and got so angry that he blurted out, “What do all of you know! Ruan Zeyan is already dead, the Ruan Teng Corporation is about to have a new owner!”

“Fusheng!” Ruan Guosheng wanted to stop him but was too late, Ruan Fusheng had already said it.
