Director Wu seemed to still be fuming, especially when he saw Cheng Yan's nonchalant attitude, he wished he could go up and drag him down.

The other directors also seemed to be infected, and they all started whispering among themselves.

One person glanced down at their phone, and their eyes relaxed.

"Everyone, I have some news to share. Would you like to hear it?"

"what news?"

Cheng Yan, who had been silent until now, also narrowed his eyes and looked over, a faint smile playing on his lips.

The man stood up, looking confident. "President Cheng has gone missing at the airport in Country A due to a riot. Second Master Cheng also rushed there, but his situation is unknown."

"What? President Cheng has disappeared?"

"How could they disappear? What are we going to do? What about the company?"

"Yeah, they're not really going to make Cheng Yan the CEO, are they?"

Cheng Yan then spoke up, "You say my elder brother is missing, what evidence do you have?"

The man waved his phone. "Second Young Master, haven't you always wanted to take control of the Cheng family business? Now your chance has come."

Upon hearing this, the others suddenly understood.

"Cheng Yan, did you do the deception that President Cheng went missing?"

"I never imagined you could be so heartless and ruthless, daring to kill your own elder brother."

"Even if President Cheng is missing and Second Master is not here, you can forget about taking this position."

"Exactly, a good-for-nothing who doesn't know anything, yet he wants to manage the group. Keep dreaming."

Many dissenting voices arose, with some criticizing Cheng Yan as worthless.

"Fine, then I'm not worthy, but you are?"

Upon receiving a look from that person, Director Wu immediately said, "We are all veterans of the company, and managing the group is more than enough for us."

"Really? So you mean you want the Cheng Group to be renamed the Wu Group?"

Cheng Yan raised her eyes, her gaze like a knife in the dead of winter.

"Changing the surname to Wu is better than ruining it in your hands." Director Wu's ambition was completely exposed at this moment.

However, these words also aroused the dissatisfaction of other directors.

"Wu Tianhai, what do you mean by that? When it comes to shares, who here doesn't have more than you? Why are you jumping around here?"

"That's right, I agree with what Director Li said."

Unexpectedly, someone objected, and Director Wu panicked a little. He looked at the person and tried to seek help.

Unexpectedly, the conference room door was pushed open at that moment.

Cheng Yu strode in from outside, his dark eyes sweeping over everyone. His first words were imposing: "Gentlemen, you've really opened my eyes."

"Cheng, Cheng, Mr. Cheng?"

Director Wu's eyes widened, and he stammered as he spoke.

Cheng Yu raised an eyebrow slightly. "What? Surprised?"

He had a smile on his face, but the smile never reached his eyes.

Cheng Yan turned to look at his older brother and smiled with relief, "Brother."

Cheng Yu walked to his side and gently touched his forehead. "Ayan, you've worked hard."

Cheng Yan shook her head and looked down at the people below. "That's the one he was talking about earlier, the one who said you were missing."

As soon as he finished speaking, the men Feng Zhuo brought went over and took the man into custody.

Cheng Yu looked at that person and said, "Chairman Ji, you've hidden it well. It's a pity that Cheng Tiansheng is already dead, and his son has been taken away by the police. You can't count on the rest."

Ji Huaiming was already disheartened when he saw Cheng Yu, knowing that he had completely lost and that today's situation was specially prepared for him.

He sat calmly in his seat, saying, "You win, I concede."

“There’s no need to admit defeat, because you were destined to lose.” Cheng Yu said coldly, “My grandfather and my father sacrificed so much back then, but you repaid kindness with enmity, letting them die in that explosion for the sake of so-called interests.”

“Cheng Tiansheng is dead. His son and those people will be sentenced, and so will you. None of you will escape.”

Cheng Yu gave Feng Zhuo a look, and then the two bodyguards escorted Chairman Ji out.

The other directors were somewhat uneasy.

Those who had been arguing the loudest earlier have all fallen silent and are pretending to be dead.

Cheng Yu clearly had no intention of letting them off the hook. He put his hand on Cheng Yan's shoulder and said to the crowd below, "Weren't you all quite noisy just now? Why are you all quiet now?"

There was silence below.

“Say again what you just said about Ayan!”

His voice was firm and resounding, and it was not hard to detect a hint of anger in it.

At that moment, no one dared to speak.

Cheng Yu never imagined that these people would have such audacity.

"Chairman Wu, wasn't it you who just said that Ayan is a good-for-nothing? And you, what did you just say? And you, say it again!"

Cheng Yu couldn't imagine how Cheng Yan could have listened to those words, or how he felt about them.

"The reason the Cheng family is called the Cheng family is because its surname is Cheng, not Wu, not Li, and not Gao. Who gave you the audacity to say such things about him? He is my brother, Cheng Yu. He can do whatever he wants and squander the family fortune as he pleases. As long as I, Cheng Yu, am alive, he can live a life of unrestrained extravagance. I don't need you to gossip about him!"

Cheng Yan was somewhat shocked. He looked up at Cheng Yu beside him, and his eyes instantly stung with tears.

He never knew that his brother was thinking that way.

Although he was on the same side as him in this matter, he thought that Cheng Yu only regarded him as his second uncle's son.

I never expected him to defend himself in front of so many people.

Cheng Yu gripped his shoulder tightly, looked down at him and smiled, "Ayan is my own brother, and I will always be his support. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I don't mind making you all mute."

The board members didn't dare to utter a sound.

Mr. Wu, in particular, almost fainted.

“But I’m sure you’re all tired of being in this position, so today, I’m giving you a day off.” After Cheng Yu finished speaking, he looked at Cheng Yan and said, “Yan, I’ll take you away.”

Cheng Yan was helped up and followed to the office.

The board members were left looking at each other, wondering what the previous words meant.

However, news about the Cheng Group soon emerged.

It is said that there was a major reshuffle at the top, and Cheng Yu fired five directors for his brother's sake.

This news has sparked a lot of discussion in the business world.

It's also strange, since it's said that the two young masters of the Cheng family don't get along. Why are they protecting each other now?

Cheng Yu ignored these news reports and left them to Feng Zhuo to handle.

He took Cheng Yan back to his residence and left him with the doctor.

After Cheng Yan fell asleep, he asked, "How is A-Yan doing?"

"It's not too bad yet, but she needs to get treatment as soon as possible, otherwise the fever will continue."

Cheng Yu frowned. Just as he was about to call Mo Er, a servant came over and said, "Young Master, there is a young lady outside who says she is here for treatment."
