The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 397 We can sit down and have a proper talk.



Chapter 397 We can sit down and have a proper talk.

Inside the Xiao family's rooftop conference room.

Xiao Jingchen reached out and tapped the screen, his voice cold and hard.

"Due to the negative impact brought about by Xiao Yunsi, our company has lost a significant number of potential customers this quarter."

"Given this matter, I believe Xiao Yunsi should move behind the scenes and focus on being a shareholder. As for his position within the company, I think it should be filled by someone more capable. What do you all think?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Xiao Yunsi was the first to stand up and express his dissatisfaction.

"I disagree. What does this have to do with me? It's clearly you, as the CEO, who failed in your responsibilities. Don't try to shift the blame onto me!"

Xiao Yunsi's tone was full of resentment, but he forgot that in the face of money, his dissatisfaction was nothing.

The other shareholders didn't care who had the company's alcohol or what was happening inside the company.

All they care about is the money in their hands and the company's monthly cash flow.

Now, because of Xiao Yunsi, they have less money, and none of them are happy about it, but none of them have expressed it openly.

"I will give everyone time to consider this matter. I will hold another meeting in two days to gather your opinions."

After saying this, Xiao Jingchen adjourned the meeting.

Outside the conference room, Lin Ran had been waiting for a long time. When she saw Xiao Jingchen come out, she hurriedly went over, and the two left the company chatting and laughing.

As soon as they returned to the old house, they saw the people sitting in the living room.

"Fu Ssu-nien? What brings you here all of a sudden?"

Fu Sinian snorted coldly and slammed the cup he was holding onto the table with a thud, his tone full of dissatisfaction.

"Oh, so you still remember my name. I thought you'd forgotten me after all this time we haven't been in touch. You heartless bastard."

As Fu Sinian talked about musical instruments, he picked up his teacup and took a vicious sip, his fierce expression making it seem as if he were treating the tea as two separate people.

"It's my fault, I've just been too busy lately."

Lin Ran smiled somewhat guiltily.

When she left FG, she promised Xiao Yunsi that she would go back after this period of time. But she didn't expect that so much time would have passed in the blink of an eye. Not to mention going back to the company, she rarely even replied to messages from there.

"So you still remember? I thought you had long forgotten and only had that damned Xiao Jingchen in your eyes."

Fu Sinian pouted in dissatisfaction, raised an eyebrow at Xiao Jingchen, and his tone suddenly changed.

"Alright, enough joking. I came here mainly because of the old man's matter."

“I struck up a conversation with him; his situation is a bit complicated right now.”

Mentioning the old man made Lin Ran's heart jump, and she looked at Fu Sinian with a nervous expression.

"What happened to him?"

Fu Sinian glanced at Xiao Jingchen and, seeing that he didn't intend to stop him, told him everything he knew.

"We now understand most of the things, the only difficult thing to deal with is the old man's leg."

"Butler Xiao said that the old man's legs have been unable to move since he went to the United States, and it seems that Xiao Yunsi was behind it."

"It's a strange drug; I'll try my best to investigate it further."

After hearing these words, Lin Ran's face turned extremely pale. Based on what Fu Sinian said, she could already imagine that the old man's current situation was not good, and even his legs were...

"If my legs hadn't been broken, perhaps I could have found a way to resolve this."

Old Li was originally upstairs when he heard noises downstairs, so he decided to come down and take a look. However, he accidentally overheard the old man's story.

Especially that illness, it sounds so familiar.

"Old Li, do you have a solution to this problem?"

"I can try."

Old Li sat on the other sofa and began to explain.

“Do you remember the poison Xiao Xiao was poisoned before? I suspect the poison in your grandfather's body is the same. As long as there is no fundamental problem with his leg, I can try it.”

Lin Ran knew about Old Li's skills, and hearing him say that, her worries immediately subsided by half.

"In that case, we need to get Grandpa out of here quickly."

Seeing the three young people start their lively discussion again, Old Man Li shook his head, took some food from the refrigerator, and went upstairs.

Aside from treating illnesses, he knew nothing else.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Xiao Yunsi looked at the documents in his hand, his eyes constantly shifting.

Xiao Jingchen had almost completely eliminated all of Wang Mei's connections within the company. After Wang Mei and Ye Chuchu, he only had one person left who he could use, but that person couldn't show up right now.

Xiao Yunsi gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with resentment, and with a bang, he overturned the table, his chest heaving violently.

At this point, there's only one solution left.

This was the only way he could resolve the issue with Xiao Jingchen; absolutely, absolutely no more problems could arise.

Xiao Yunsi's breathing gradually calmed down. He took a deep breath, took out his phone, and made a call.

At the old house, Xiao Jingchen glanced at the incoming call number and hung up without hesitation.

There's nothing to say between him and Xiao Yunsi.

They're far from being close enough to make a phone call.

The call ended once, and then it started again. Lin Ran noticed his impatient expression and leaned over to take a look.

"Xiao Yunsi? Why did he call you to say something?"

"I don't know, but it's not a good thing."

Xiao Jingchen's voice was full of impatience as he hung up the phone again.

"Wait a minute, let's answer the call later and see what he's trying to do."

Xiao Jingchen paused in his work, nodded, and emphasized that he was obedient.

Meanwhile, in the United States, Old Master Xiao looked at the man who broke down the door and a genuine smile appeared on his face.

"Thank you so much for coming all this way."

The person who entered exuded an air of dominance. He was stunned when he saw Old Master Xiao sitting in a wheelchair. Before he could even think clearly, he had already spoken.

"Your leg is broken?"

"Your leg is broken, but it's only temporary."

Just moments ago, Old Master Xiao was expressing his gratitude, but in the blink of an eye, he started cursing again.

He had traveled to many places and met many people when he was young. He couldn't do big things, but dealing with a few of Xiao Yunsi's henchmen here was a piece of cake.

"It's rare to see you in such a disheveled state."

The man's hair was already gray, but he still looked at Old Master Xiao like a child. He also ordered his men to tie up Xiao Yunsi's men to prevent them from leaking information back to the country.
