Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1471: Chapter 1291 Who Disagrees?! _2

Anyway, they’re just mumbling down there, it’s not like they’re getting up to offend anyone. What’s there to be afraid of!

”Yeah, how come this Senior Affairs Officer Bai Xiaosheng takes a vacation and doesn’t even know about such a major personnel change at our Greater China Region Headquarters?”

”Even if he’s upset with Shen Peishen, he shouldn’t really let go and not care at all.”

”Exactly, with this kind of behavior, who would dare to trust him to become our Greater China Region’s Executive President? Just imagine, if he really becomes Executive President and acts recklessly, who would dare to trust him?”

”That’s right...”

These hushed, fragmented words gathered together, creating quite a stir.

Han Richeng looked around, suddenly feeling emboldened, and sneered at Bai Xiaosheng.

Bai Xiaosheng pretended not to hear the murmurs among the crowd, nodded slightly at Han Richeng, ”Oh, so it was Shen Peishen who promoted you!”

”He really thinks highly of you!” Bai Xiaosheng said with meaningful intent.

Bai Xiaosheng’s words were like stepping on Han Richeng’s tail.

Han Richeng immediately pointed at Bai Xiaosheng, glaring and shouting, ”Senior Affairs Officer Bai Xiaosheng, what do you mean by that!”

”You’re just saying I’m Shen Peishen’s guy!”

”I’m telling you, if you’re spouting nonsense without cause, damaging my reputation, I won’t let it slide!”

”I, Han Richeng, am actually undercover within Shen Peishen’s side, investigating his issues. Ask around if you don’t believe me; I’ve been the most diligent in dealing with Shen Peishen’s ’remnants’ these past few days!”

Han Richeng shouted, claiming credit for himself, then squinted his eyes and sneered, ”Do you think by undermining me, you’ll gain more support from Elder Xia? How naive you are, at your age, to vie for the position of Executive President of our Greater China Region? Are you even thirty yet? Would we feel comfortable handing the Greater China Region over to you?”

Some people in the crowd took the opportunity to voice their doubts about Bai Xiaosheng’s age.

Bai Xiaosheng looked at Han Richeng calmly, his expression a mix of a smile and a smirk.

This character was indeed interesting, seeming like a clown but somehow managing to stir up many such prudent, capable ”smart people” here.

Bai Xiaosheng thought to himself.

Shen Peishen, perhaps he sees his ability but overlooks his character.

...

Ever since Bai Xiaosheng entered, Xiahou Qi had been sitting there drinking tea, indifferent to the chaos around him.

Li Haofeng, Zheng Honghu, and Xu Youruo all watched Xiahou Qi with smiles.

As the tea was almost finished, Xiahou Qi placed his cup down and lightly cleared his throat.

In the noisy room, Xiahou Qi’s cough was soft but instantly silenced the crowd.

Everyone was closely watching Xiahou Qi’s movements.

”Elder Xia, you are the most impartial, we all trust you won’t employ favoritism. Even though Bai Xiaosheng previously had close dealings with you, look at his current attitude. If he’s made our Greater China Region’s Executive President, where would he place you, where would he place us! Moreover, he’s not yet thirty. As the saying goes, ’young and inexperienced,’ you must be cautious...” Han Richeng said earnestly, ”That’s what we all think!”

After Han Richeng spoke, he looked left and right.

Many people immediately coughed or mumbled, making some noise to seemingly support Han Richeng.

Han Richeng also looked earnestly at Xiahou Qi.

Xiahou Qi looked at Bai Xiaosheng amusedly, Bai Xiaosheng looked back at Xiahou Qi amusedly.

Many witnessed this ”interaction” between the older and younger, feeling a sinking feeling inside.

It seemed impossible to make Xiahou Qi ”give up” Bai Xiaosheng with merely a few instigating words.

Han Richeng’s mind whirled, thinking about what to say next.

Should he continue to speak against Bai Xiaosheng, or leave some room for maneuver...

As the saying goes, ”Leave room for people to meet another day...”

Before Han Richeng finished thinking, Xiahou Qi looked at the crowd and spoke with a smile, ”Since everyone says so, I certainly won’t push Bai Xiaosheng to headquarters.”

Han Richeng was stunned.

Many seated there were also stunned.

They could hardly believe it.

Has Bai Xiaosheng’s nomination really been taken away?

Han Richeng and others were suddenly delighted, feeling like they’ve picked up a billion out of thin air...

”In fact, I won’t recommend anyone to headquarters!”

Xiahou Qi saw everyone happy and added with happiness himself.

Han Richeng’s smile froze in his eyes and quickly turned to astonishment.

The room became somber.

Even those who didn’t feel joy earlier were surprised looking at Xiahou Qi.

Xiahou Qi never joked in front of everyone; he’s someone who ”means what he says.” When he says no recommendation, he’s definitely not recommending anyone to headquarters.

Doesn’t that mean they’re rejoicing in vain here?

Han Richeng wanted to speak, to ask on behalf of everyone, why Xiahou Qi won’t recommend anyone.

Yet Xiahou Qi had already announced the answer before Han Richeng could speak.

”The reason is that headquarters decides the candidate; they don’t need the lower-ranking people to choose. Also, our Greater China Region’s president has already been appointed!”

This statement brought the room to complete silence.

Everyone widened their eyes in surprise, feeling it was unbelievable.

Has the new Executive President of the Greater China Region already been chosen?

Why weren’t they informed!

Not even a whisper of it beforehand!

Moreover, Shen Peishen was ousted just a few days ago, yet the Executive President was already determined?

Can headquarters really be that efficient!

Han Richeng couldn’t help but swallow, feeling extremely disappointed and profoundly shocked inside.
