Double evil in the business district

Chapter 311: Breaking the Conspiracy: Xiao Yue Moves Forward Steadily

The air in the conference room seemed to be frozen, so stuffy that it was hard to breathe.

Xiao Yue's pen tip slid quickly across the paper, making a slight rustling sound, which was particularly clear in this silent space.

She frowned slightly and scanned the plan in front of her with sharp eyes. Every word and every clause were like precise gears that had to fit together perfectly to drive the Xiao family's giant ship forward smoothly.

Outside the window, sunlight shines through the thick glass, casting mottled light and shadows on the table, like silent gaze, or invisible pressure.

Xiao Yue took a deep breath and gently rubbed his fingertips on the cold coffee cup, feeling the familiar coolness.

She knew that behind this plan, there were countless eyes watching, and every slight modification could become a loophole for the opponent to attack.

She had to be careful, extra careful.

Suddenly, a slight knock on the door broke the silence.

Secretary Chen pushed the door open and walked in. There was a barely perceptible nervousness on her face. She held a document in her hand and placed it respectfully in front of Xiao Yue.

"Mr. Xiao, this is the latest data submitted by various departments this morning. Please review it."

Xiao Yue took the document and quickly browsed through it.

As she watched, a barely perceptible sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.

This document looks ordinary, but the abnormal fluctuations in some of the data clearly expose that someone is playing tricks in secret.

She raised her eyes and looked at Consultant Lin who was standing in the corner. He had a professional smile on his face and seemed calm, but there was a hint of panic in his eyes.

Good, she thought, the fish has finally taken the bait.

As time passed, the atmosphere in the conference room became more depressing.

Finally, it was time for the shareholders' meeting.

Xiao Yue walked into the conference room holding the documents.

When she saw the smug looks on Uncle Xiao and Cousin Xiao's faces, she knew that something good was about to happen.

At the beginning of the meeting, Xiao Yue first presented her carefully prepared power distribution plan and explained the advantages and necessity of the plan.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, Uncle Xiao jumped out impatiently. In a tough tone, he used pre-prepared reasons to accuse Xiao Yue's plan of being biased towards one side, and loudly encouraged those bribed small shareholders to oppose it.

"I don't agree! This plan is too unfair to us small shareholders!" A sharp voice broke the silence in the meeting room.

Several small shareholders also echoed the sentiment, and the scene was filled with noise.

Xiao Yue looked at everything in front of him calmly.

She was neither flustered nor angry, but smiled gently.

She signaled Secretary Chen to play a recording file on the screen in the conference room.

"Everyone, listen to this."

The noise in the conference room disappeared instantly, replaced by clear conversation.

In the recording, the voices of Uncle Xiao and Cousin Xiao were clearly audible. They were plotting how to bribe the small shareholders to oppose Xiao Yue's plan at the meeting, and promised to give them benefits after the success.

Uncle Xiao and cousin Xiao's faces turned pale in an instant. They didn't expect that their carefully planned conspiracy was actually known to Xiao Yue.

The looks of the other family members also changed, from suspicion to shock, and then to a hint of admiration.

Xiao Yue knocked lightly on the table, and the crisp sound echoed in the silent conference room.

Her eyes were firm and sharp as she swept over everyone present.

"I'll only say this once. The future of the Xiao family is definitely not a game of power for people like you."

She picked up another document on the table, her tone softened, but with unquestionable authority.

"This is the true power distribution plan."

She was about to explain further when her eyes fell on the slightly flickering eyes of shareholder Li in the corner and his uneasy little movements.

"Shareholder Li, there are some things I want to talk to you about alone..."

Xiao Yue's gaze fell on shareholder Li, and his sharp eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

She stood up and motioned for shareholder Li to go to the lounge next door to talk.

"Uncle Li," Xiao Yue's voice was a bit softer, yet still revealed an unquestionable firmness. "You're a long-time shareholder of Xiao Corporation, and I've always seen your affection for the company." She paused, looking at the slightly puzzled expression on Shareholder Li's face, and continued, "Your hesitation just now was because you still had concerns about my plan, correct?"

Shareholder Li smiled awkwardly, rubbed his hands, and finally spoke: "Mr. Xiao, it's not that I don't support you, it's just... your plan is indeed a bit radical. I'm worried that it will affect the stability of the Xiao Group."

Xiao Yue had anticipated what shareholder Li would say. She calmly pulled out a data analysis report from the file and handed it to shareholder Li: "Uncle Li, take a look at this."

Shareholder Li took the report and read it carefully.

The report analyzed in detail the future development prospects of Xiao Group and how Xiao Yue's plan would propel Xiao Group towards new glory.

The more he looked, the more frightened he became. Xiao Yue's foresight and courage shocked him.

"Uncle Li, Xiao's can no longer cling to the same old ways. We need change and innovation to remain invincible in the fierce market competition." Xiao Yue's voice was resounding and convincing. "I believe that under my leadership, Xiao's will surely move towards an even more glorious future. Your support is crucial."

Shareholder Li raised his head and looked into Xiao Yue's confident eyes. He was shaken, and his once wavering heart was completely convinced.

He took a deep breath and nodded slowly: "Mr. Xiao, I support you!"

Xiao Yue finally showed a relieved smile on his face

On the other side, the atmosphere in the conference room became even more tense.

Uncle Xiao and cousin Xiao's faces turned pale. They didn't expect that Xiao Yue could foil their conspiracy so easily.

Cousin Xiao was unwilling to give in. She rolled her eyes and came up with a plan.

"Everyone, don't be fooled by Xiao Yue's sweet talk! This plan is purely for herself, to consolidate her power!" Cousin Xiao's voice was sharp and hysterical. "Think carefully, can this plan really bring benefits to Xiao Group? I think it will only harm the interests of us old shareholders!"

Rumors spread quickly among the crowd like seeds.

Some small shareholders who were originally wavering began to hesitate again.

Xiao Yue sneered. This little trick was simply no match for her.

She signaled Secretary Chen to display the evidence documents on the screen.

"Cousin Xiao, you're saying my plan harmed the family's interests? Then, may I ask, what's your purpose in spreading these rumors?" Xiao Yue's tone was as cold as ice. "Secretary Chen, show me the source of the rumors."

A series of chat records appeared on the screen, clearly recording how Cousin Xiao spread rumors and incited other shareholders to oppose Xiao Yue.

Cousin Xiao's face turned pale in an instant. She opened her mouth but could not utter any words of rebuttal.

Xiao Yue's eyes swept over everyone present, and his voice was clear and firm: "Xiao's is not a place for you to play power games. The future of Xiao's will never be in the hands of selfish people like you!"

There was silence in the conference room.

Everyone was shocked by Xiao Yue's strength and courage.

They finally understood that the young woman in front of them was not someone they could manipulate at will.

Xiao Yue's prestige in the family has reached an unprecedented height.

"Let's go, Secretary Chen." Xiao Yue picked up the documents and walked towards the door of the meeting room. Suddenly, she stopped and looked back at Uncle Xiao and Cousin Xiao, who looked dazed. "I have something to say to them alone."

Xiao Yue paused, turned and left, leaving behind a meaningful back.

The sunlight filtered through the floor-to-ceiling windows, casting a warm glow over the spacious banquet hall, but it failed to dispel the subtle tension in the air.

Xiao Yue took Shen Ting's arm and slowly walked into the venue, like a perfect couple, attracting everyone's attention.

The man's suit was neatly tailored, and his posture was upright, like a solid pine or cypress, exuding a calm aura. He calmly protected Xiao Yue by his side, as if declaring his ownership.

"Xiao Yue, your dress is so beautiful, but... Hey, Mr. Shen's status is really enviable." An auntie with a smile on her face came up, but there was a hint of sourness in her words.

Xiao Yue was about to speak when Shen Ting gently held her hand.

"My wife is naturally the best." Shen Ting's tone was flat, but with an unquestionable firmness. His eyes swept over the aunt, and the eyes were as deep as a cold pond, which instantly made the other party shut up and retreat aside in disappointment.

Xiao Yue raised her eyes and looked at the man beside her. His profile was smooth and strong.

In the following time, Shen Ting always acted like a solid barrier, blocking the difficulties and temptations from some family members for Xiao Yue.

He maneuvered between various forces with ease, maintaining courtesy while skillfully safeguarding Xiao Yue's dignity.

His composure and control made Xiao Yue feel at ease, and also forced those who wanted to laugh at him to restrain their own little thoughts.

This banquet was more like a silent contest, and the appearance of Shen Ting undoubtedly added a powerful layer of protection for Xiao Yue.

She secretly observed everyone's expressions and actions, and silently memorized their attitudes and positions in her heart.

As night fell, the party was coming to an end.

Xiao Yue sat alone in the study. Under the light, she carefully flipped through the documents in her hand, her pen moving quickly across the paper.

She made final adjustments to the power distribution plan based on the different characteristics and contributions of each family member. Every clause was carefully considered by her, taking into account both fairness and efficiency.

However, she did not let her guard down because she knew clearly that beneath the seemingly calm surface of the lake, there were still undercurrents lurking.

Some stubborn forces are still secretly resisting her plan.

It will take more time and effort to completely convince them.

She raised her head, her gaze through the window falling on the stars in the distance, her eyes gradually becoming firm and sharp.

She picked up the phone on the table and dialed Secretary Chen's number.

"Tomorrow morning, in the family meeting room, notify everyone to be present." Her voice was calm and firm, as if she was describing something completely ordinary. "I want to officially announce my plan."
