After turning into a rare female, she refused the bosses' exclusive favor
Chapter 63 Interlude
Collio's confident speech made all the high-level officials present look at him with awe. There were those who admired him, but there were also those who opposed him...
"Sir Collio, although you are the candidate recommended by Admiral Zhige, it does not mean that you can speak so arrogantly in a high-level meeting." The people on the right could not sit still and shouted loudly.
"I'm not making big talk. I'm just stating the facts. After all..." Collio turned his head to the door, and everyone followed his gaze.
Admiral Zhige walked in with a female, and the whole place suddenly became excited.
"Am I seeing right? Isn't this the lady from the dinner party yesterday?"
"Oh my god, Admiral Zhi Ge actually invited a female here, how impressive is that!"
"Even the female has come in person. It seems that Sir Collio's position as temporary guardian is secure."
……
The left-wingers cheered, while the right-wingers refused to give up.
"The lady hasn't said anything yet. Don't open the champagne at halftime!"
Seeing that the right-wingers were still stubborn, the left-wingers did not tolerate it and directly retorted: "Don't be so stubborn. There is a sour taste in your words. I can smell it from such a distance."
"Hey! What are you talking about, young man?"
"I'm scolding you! You old stubborn old fool!"
"Look at my temper! Believe it or not, I will punish you."
"Come on, who is afraid of whom?"
"I……"
Somehow, the conference room became a mess again.
Most of the right-wingers are from the more traditional older generation, with an average age difference of 20 to 30 years between them and the left-wingers, so they always consider themselves as seniors.
But the average lifespan of orcs is around 300 years old. In fact, both the left and the right are in their prime.
As for the two factions using the terms "youngster" and "old stubborn" to describe each other, it is only due to ideological differences. If they really start fighting, neither side will gain any advantage.
"quiet!"
Zhi Ge spoke again, and a wave of pressure came, shocking the entire audience.
At this moment, both factions shut up tactfully, sat upright, and did not dare to do anything that overstepped the boundaries.
"I know that some people are dissatisfied with Collio's election as the second interim guardian, but this is what the people want. Even if we are in high positions, we have to listen to the opinions of the masses."
After saying that, Zhi Ge directly turned on the main light screen in the conference room to display the current situation on the Internet.
It can be seen that people have initiated votes on major social platforms to elect female temporary guardians.
Collio was far ahead on all platforms with a cliff-like number of votes, and the public almost unanimously nominated him as the second temporary guardian.
"Oh, I'm so sorry! I'm so popular with the crowd." Collio looked shy, but there was no trace of modesty in his tone.
Even the affected voice made everyone present want to vomit. Even the leftists who supported Collio couldn't stand his clamped voice.
Seeing that public opinion had achieved the effect he wanted, Zhi Ge took advantage of the situation and said, "Although Collio's situation is a little special, there is no rule that temporary guardians must be males. There have been older females in the interstellar world who served as temporary guardians of females as 'godmothers'."
Indeed, the Interstellar Act does not stipulate that the temporary guardian of a female must be a male, which allowed Zhige to take advantage of the loophole.
Coupled with the fact that there are cases where females act as temporary guardians of other females, some people who try to refute this are speechless.
Seeing that no one spoke up to refute him, Zhi Ge threw out his trump card -
"Besides, Collio is the temporary guardian appointed by Miss Alice. You can't question the decision of a female, right?"
Pushik stood up and said seriously, "I hope Ms. Collio can be my temporary guardian. Please agree."
Such humble words flattered the males, and the right-wingers could not find any reason to object for a while.
After all, in this world, the female's will is more important than anything else. As long as the female speaks up, the choice of temporary guardian is basically a done deal.
In fact, when the right wing saw Pushik arrive, they already knew that Collio's election as the second temporary guardian was an inevitable result.
It’s just that some people are unwilling to give up an important position, so they are making a last-ditch effort.
"In that case, please raise your hands to express your opinion. Those who support Collio's election as the second temporary guardian, please raise your hands!"
"I agree!"
"I agree too!"
"I abstain."
"Agree!"
"I also abstain."
……
More than two-thirds of the votes were in favor, which means that Collio will be elected as Pushik's second temporary guardian.
"Well, I announce the voting results of this high-level meeting. Collio..."
Before Zhi Ge could finish his words, he was interrupted again by a familiar voice.
"Wait! This vote is invalid."
The person who came was Baili Zhui, and Baili Fengxing who followed behind him had a calm and composed look on his face.
Zhi Ge had long expected that the Baili family would not give up, but he did not expect that Baili Zhui would openly reject the proposal passed by the top management.
"Mr. Baili, this is the decision of all our senior leaders. As an envoy of the White Tiger Group, don't you think you are overstepping your authority?"
Zhi Ge's words were sharp, and every sentence criticized Baili Zhui for interfering in the political affairs of Zone A as a foreign envoy.
"Indeed, I don't mean to interrupt your meeting rashly, but..."
Baili Zhui also came prepared. He contacted his family early in the morning and obtained the political agency rights of the White Tiger Group.
He showed the authorization document of his family and said calmly: "I will now exercise the power of the Baili family in Area A!"
At this time, Baili Zhui has become the agent of the Baili family in Area A, and he also enjoys a special power——
Veto power! You can directly veto proposals from the top management. Even if the meeting result is unanimously approved by the top management, you can still veto it with one vote.
I really didn't expect that Baili Zhui would be so shameless. But Zhi Ge did not lose his composure, but asked: "Excuse me, what is the reason for Lord Baili to exercise the veto power?"
The veto power is not that easy to use. If a proposal passed by senior management is vetoed for improper reasons, the exercise of this power will be prohibited at the next meeting.
"I just want you to give the Baili family some face and let my nephew fight for the position of Miss Alice's temporary guardian."
Although Baili Zhui said this with a smile, the threat was evident in his words.
Although this reason was rather outrageous and not enough to convince those present, the veto power ban would only take effect at the next meeting, so Baili Zhui's goal was achieved.
"Is he looking for trouble on purpose?" Collio moved closer to Zhige and said in a low voice.
Zhi Ge, however, behaved particularly calmly. After all, the trend of the times was already inevitable on their side, and the other side could not cause much trouble.
At worst, we can hold another round of voting. Baili Zhui’s veto power is invalid anyway, and the final result will not change much.
However, it was precisely because of Baili Zhui's arrival that the original voices of opposition began to resurface.
"Yes! We have to give others a chance. What if the young lady is more interested in the Baili family?"
"The Baili family is still a well-known noble family in the interstellar space, and they can definitely provide more and better protection for females."
"I agree! Let's give the Baili family a chance to perform."
There were many different opinions, and it was obvious that no one wanted to offend the White Tiger Group.
"Well, I will give this face to your Baili family." Zhi Ge unexpectedly did not object, and looked confident.
After all, everyone present knew that it was never the number of votes that decided everything, but the will of the females.
As mentioned before, the will of females is above everything else. No one can force females to accept something they don’t want to do, nor can anyone excessively interfere with their decisions.
Therefore, some people in the upper echelons were very curious about how Baili Fengxing would conquer the female in front of him.
