Reborn back to the day I descended the mountain, Miss Ji, I will take responsibility for you!

Ji's Beauty Group, rooftop conference room.

At this moment, all the shareholders of Ji's Beauty Group gathered together.

Even the great-grandmother of the Ji family, who hadn't appeared at the company for a long time, was sitting in the head seat.

Everyone in the conference room wore extremely solemn expressions, as the group was now on the verge of life or death.

Just then, the door opened, and Ji Ruoyun walked in with Ji Ruoyu.

Ji Ruoyun sat at the far right, while Ji Ruoyu stood there, facing the scrutiny of the shareholders.

At this moment, Ji Xiaoren gave a wink to one of the people on his right, and the person nodded.

Then he turned to look at the great-grandmother of the Ji family and said, "Chairman, the Ji family was already in dire straits, and we were just barely holding on."

“Now that Ji Ruoyu has offended the Zheng family, the Zheng family has taken action to blacklist us. Today I have already received several calls from people canceling their orders.”

"Moreover, the bank also demanded that we repay the previous loan within three days, otherwise they would begin liquidation of us."

“Once the liquidation begins, our cash flow will be cut off instantly, and then we will face utter ruin.”

As soon as these words were spoken, all eyes in the room turned to Ji Ruoyu.

After all, this whole thing started because of Ji Ruoyu.

"We are simply unable to repay in the short term, and even if we wanted to rob Peter to pay Paul, I'm afraid no bank would lend us money now."

"At that time, if the capital chain breaks down and goods cannot be supplied in time, we will also face a lot of default penalties."

At this point, some shareholders also spoke up, since the company's survival was related to their own interests.

Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, Ji Xiaoren said, "Mom, although Ruoyu is a member of the Ji family, she has caused such a big trouble. If we don't deal with her, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public."

“I propose that Ji Ruoyu be removed from all her posts and that she personally go to the Zheng family to beg for forgiveness, or else be expelled from the family.”

Upon hearing this, Ji Ruoyu trembled. He had thought that this was a near-death experience, but he never expected Ji Xiaoren to be so ruthless.

Seeing Ji Ruoyu's bewildered expression, Ji Ruoyun immediately revealed a cold smile. This was the price of going against her.

This time, they not only want to kick Ji Ruoyu out of the company, but also ensure she never has a chance to recover.

Just then, Ji Xiaojun stood up and said, "The Zheng family is just using this as an excuse; they have long coveted the formula for our Ji's Whitening Cream."

"How can all the blame be placed on Ruoyu? Besides, Ruoyu just signed a 100 million yuan OEM contract with Tianchen Company."

"If Ji Ruoyu is dismissed now, and Tianchen Company cancels the cooperation, wouldn't that be adding insult to injury?"

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the great-grandmother of the Ji family.

The final decision today depends on the attitude of the Ji family's great-grandmother.

Ji Xiaoren was somewhat surprised to see his mother remain silent.

I don't know what my mother is still hesitating about, even after all this.

If Ji Ruoyu isn't dealt with in this situation, the company's morale will likely collapse.

After a moment's hesitation, Ji Xiaoren said, "Since everyone has a disagreement, let's vote by raising our hands, according to our tradition."

"Agreed to remove Ji Ruoyu from all her posts and send her to the Zheng family to beg for forgiveness."

As soon as he finished speaking, the shareholder who had spoken first immediately raised his hand.

Immediately afterwards, one shareholder after another raised their hands, looking at those raised hands.

Ji Xiaoren smiled smugly; this was the inevitable trend.

Now, even if the great-grandmother of the Ji family wanted to protect Ji Ruoyu, she would have to consider the potential impact.

Seeing the situation on the field, Ji Xiaojun's face turned ashen; he knew it was all over.

There were 21 people in total, excluding Ji Ruoyun, who was not a board member and had no voting rights.

A total of seventeen people raised their hands. At this point, besides him and the great-grandmother of the Ji family, there was one other director who had not yet raised their hands.

After looking around, the director finally sighed and raised his hand.

The outcome is now obvious, but Ji Xiaoren still looked at Ji's great-grandmother.

As the chairperson, the great-grandmother of the Ji family has veto power.

Even if everyone else agrees, it won't matter if the great-grandmother of the Ji family objects.

Just then, the great-grandmother of the Ji family looked at Ji Ruoyu and asked, "Ruoyu, is there anything you want to say?"

Ji Ruoyu looked at her great-grandmother, opened her mouth, but looking at the directors around her, she ultimately didn't speak.

She didn't want to put her great-grandmother in a difficult position. Seeing this, the great-grandmother of the Ji family seemed to understand Ji Ruoyu's thoughts and sighed.

Just as I was about to announce the results, the conference room door was suddenly pushed open.

Everyone turned to look towards the doorway. Ji Ruoyu was taken aback when she saw who it was and said, "Xiao Yao, what brings you here?"

Xiao Yao gasped for breath, "Wrong, all wrong! Our CEO Ji is innocent!"

When Ji Xiaoren saw Chen Xiaoyao rushing in, he frowned and said, "How dare you! Do you know where this is? Do you think a mere branch office assistant like you can just barge in like this?"

"Men, throw them out!"

Immediately, four security guards were about to go up and kick people out when several more people barged in; they were all management members of Yan Ruyu Company.

Chen Xiaoyao instinctively shrank back when she saw the security guard approaching.

However, he quickly added, "Just now, President Qi of the Wucheng branch of ICBC came to our company in person and said that the previous loan recall was a misunderstanding."

"To compensate the company for its losses, ICBC is willing to provide a low-interest loan of 10 billion yuan, but they also have one condition."

"That is the loan contract, which must be signed by our General Manager Ji on behalf of the head office."

As soon as Chen Xiaoyao finished speaking, Ji Ruoyun blurted out, "Impossible. With your small company, how could President Qi possibly go in person, offer a low-interest loan, and specifically request Ji Ruoyu to sign it?"

"Even if you're going to make up a story, can't you at least make one that's plausible?"

Upon hearing this, the board members were full of doubt, after all, what Chen Xiaoyao said was too outrageous.

Who is President Qi? Even their head office probably wouldn't be qualified to invite him to come in person.

Moreover, this was a small branch office, right at this time.

Just then, Chen Xiaoyao's phone rang. She took out her phone, saw the message, paused for a moment, and then was overjoyed.

"If you don't believe me, you can check your phones. Wucheng News just released the latest announcement."

Upon hearing this, the shareholders took out their phones, but they were all in airplane mode, so they hadn't received the message.

Once connected to the network, everyone's phones immediately popped up with new messages.

"Wucheng Gazette: Today's headline reports that Wang Baolong, vice president of the Wucheng branch of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, was taken away by the disciplinary inspection department today on suspicion of abusing his power for personal gain and corruption."

"In response, President Qi of ICBC Wucheng Branch stated that the branch will rigorously investigate internal corruption issues and provide appropriate compensation to affected companies."

Everyone looked on with astonishment upon seeing this news.

"This, is this true?"

Even after seeing the news reports, they still couldn't believe it.

However, no one answered, since this was official news and couldn't be faked.

"Even so, why would President Qi go to Yan Ruyu's company?"

Someone else raised a question, but no one knew the answer. Ji Ruoyu had indeed thought of something.

Could it be because of Ye Chen? But Ji Ruoyu quickly dismissed the thought.

At this moment, Ji Xiaojun spoke up: "No matter what, if we remove Ji Ruoyu from her position at this time, I'm afraid the loan will really be in trouble."

Upon hearing this, the board members exchanged bewildered glances. Indeed, whatever the reason, since President Qi had designated Ji Ruoyu...

At this point, anyone who touches Ji Ruoyu would be slapping President Qi in the face, and only a fool would do such a thing.

Moreover, with President Qi's endorsement, even the Zheng family's blockade will likely be ineffective.

After all, compared to President Qi, what is the Zheng family?

The great-grandmother of the Ji family smiled and said, "It seems that everything was just a misunderstanding. In that case, the previous proposal is null and void."

"Everyone, please get ready quickly so that the loan signing ceremony can be quite lively."

Everyone understood immediately, knowing that President Qi might visit the head office at that time.

If they promote it well, it will be entirely beneficial to their company.

The board members all stood up and walked out, their faces showing smiles to varying degrees.

The way he looked at Ji Ruoyu had also become much kinder.

Only Ji Xiaoren and Ji Ruoyun gritted their teeth, their carefully constructed deadly trap broken just like that.

What a coincidence! Why was Wang Baolong arrested at this particular time of year, of all times?
