Reborn as the Cinnabar Mole of the Prince of Beijing's Elite Circle

Bai Yiting was still unconvinced and spoke with great confidence.

“The chairman of the company is a position that should be filled by the capable. Mom, if you don’t understand, you shouldn’t be so fixated on a position that shouldn’t be yours.” An Wenxin spun around in her chair and placed her hands on the table, her gaze confident and firm as she faced everyone. “Everyone should understand that only those with ability are qualified. Gu Peng has worked in our company for over thirty years, and his abilities are evident to all. Since a choice must be made, Gu Peng is the right person to take the position.”

That's what they said—they were all very eloquent and persuasive; they said everything, good and bad.

"Bai Yiting never expected that neither of your two daughters would want you."

Liu Dandan felt very satisfied with the scene, and seeing such a good show made her feel extremely happy.

Bai Yiting felt a wave of powerlessness wash over her, and she couldn't help but take a few steps back, her eyes filled with disbelief and a hint of sadness. She had planned everything meticulously, but she never expected that it would be An Wenxin who ultimately betrayed her.

Gu Peng completely ignored Bai Yiting's unreasonable behavior and stood up calmly, adopting the attitude of a chairman: "Then I would like to thank everyone for their support. Since I am the chairman, I would also like to make it clear that An Wenxin has made tremendous contributions to our company, which is evident to all. Therefore, I hereby formally appoint An Wenxin as the company's vice chairman. Her words are my words."

Bai Yiting was in a daze as she watched the two shake hands.

An Wenxin and Gu Peng had nothing to do with each other except work, so when did they start to cross paths and reach a consensus without her knowledge?

The shareholders' meeting ended just like that; the other shareholders left, leaving only a few of them.

"Chairman Gu, let's cooperate more in the future."

An Wenxin smiled and said that she was willing to cooperate with anyone as long as there was profit involved.

She knew, of course, that it was impossible for her to become the chairman of the board with her own abilities, so in order to gain a foothold in the company, she definitely needed to find the best helper.

As for Gu Peng, after Xie Yu'an refused, Lan Mingqing told her that An Cinian had shares, so she came up with a plan. Gu Peng is not only very capable, but he also has the best interpersonal relationships. He has been in the company for so many years, and no one can gossip about him. She only needs to persuade Gu Peng to help her gain a firm foothold in the company. Cooperating with Gu Peng is the best option at present.

As for An Cinian, it was because she had a good relationship with Gu Peng. The vote count was obvious, and she planned to deliberately support Bai Yiting in case Bai Yiting made any other moves.

And so, Xie Yu'an agreed to cooperate, and her plan succeeded.

"So, all these years, the person I couldn't understand the most was actually my proud daughter?"

Bai Yiting turned her head away, staring at An Wenxin with heartache. This child had been her closest friend since childhood, and ironically, the closest relationship had also caused her the most harm.

An Wenxin walked up to Bai Yiting, smiled softly, and said gently, "Mom, I'm not a child anymore. I have to think about my future." Then, she patted Bai Yiting's shoulder, "But don't worry, I'm still your daughter, and I will definitely take good care of you."

No matter what, we have to consider their long-standing relationship.

"unnecessary!"

Very angry, Bai Yiting had finally seen through An Wenxin's true colors. Even in this situation, she was still pretending to be magnanimous. How ridiculous!

"Bai Yiting, you're nothing special."

Liu Dandan, heavily pregnant, spoke up again, clearly wanting to mock this person—it was so satisfying!

She'd seen too many wealthy families like this over the years. An Wenxin and Bai Yiting weren't even biological mother and daughter, so why were they being so hypocritical?

This is why Anping wouldn't leave the shares to them; her Aping wouldn't be so foolish. It's just a pity that her Aping is dead.

They're willing to tear each other apart over who gets to be chairman; Anping's death is definitely related to them.

Gu Peng looked at An Cinian, who was holding Xie Yu'an's arm, with a beaming smile. He was really grateful to his goddaughter. Just as his right hand was about to touch An Cinian, she stepped back.

The two looked at each other, and their relationship deteriorated rapidly.

"I know, Xiao Nian, don't worry, I'll manage the company well, you don't need to worry."

Gu Peng knew perfectly well that An Cinian was somewhat disappointed in him, feeling that he had deceived her.

But that's how power struggles are. People are selfish. Everyone has seen what he's done in the company over the years. He's the most capable person to lead the company forward. If even he doesn't have the ability, the An Group can only go bankrupt.

What kind of man is he if he has no ambition?

"Your Highness, thank you very much."

Xie Yu'an was one of the shareholders who supported him, as was An Wenxin, who sought his cooperation.

Xie Yu'an ignored Gu Peng, took An Cinian's hand and left the An Group. Now that the An Group's affairs were settled, they didn't need to worry anymore.

"Xie Yu'an, does a person change once they have power?"

Gu Peng was like an uncle who had watched her grow up since she was a child. The two had a good relationship to begin with, and later, because Gu Peng adopted Su Su, she felt that their relationship had become even better.

Uncle Gu gave her a very gentle feeling, and he was like that to everyone. However, this gentle person gave her a surprise today.

It wasn't that she didn't want Gu Peng to become chairman; he deserved it, and he was also the most powerful shareholder. It was just that Gu Peng had played tricks, which suddenly overturned the impression she had of Uncle Gu, leaving her somewhat... somewhat stunned and feeling very uncomfortable.

An Wenxin called me over today because she figured I would definitely side with Gu Peng. All she had to do was fool Bai Yiting, and in the end, both Gu Peng and An Wenxin would get what they wanted.

“Niannian, I need to explain this to you. Gu Peng came to me about this matter. The internal relations within the An Group are too unfriendly. An Ping’s death has caused turmoil for some people. I promised Grandpa that the An Group cannot collapse. As for Gu Peng, Grandpa also told me that he was the person he thought the most was Gu Peng. However, at that time, An Ping was still alive, so the matter was left unresolved. But now that An Ping is dead, the internal situation within the company is too serious. Therefore, I made a deal with Gu Peng. I will privately help him deal with the mess that An Ping left behind, and he will take over the company and will definitely lead it back on track.”

As for An Wenxin, it's essentially a deal with her; she will also make promises and commitments.

An Cinian remained silent. Of course, she believed Xie Yu'an's words, but she felt a little sentimental. People always change because of certain things, no matter what the reason, including An Cinian herself.

"Xie Yu'an, you have ambitions too."
