Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 2046: Chapter 1580: Before the Conference (2)

You think you can sit wherever you want? Then I want to sit in the judge’s seat!

Landvo suddenly felt as if his mind was imploding.

”That’s not my responsibility.” The staff who guided them directly shirked responsibility and even suggested to Landvo, ”Why don’t you wait for the Dean or the Executive Directors to come and protest?”

Protest my ass!

Landvo was fuming, glaring at the staff in anger.

If it were in the past, anyone daring to speak to him like that would have been dealt with already.

The staff even dared to grin at him.

Landvo restrained himself again and again.

However, when Landvo walked up to Bai Xiaosheng, he stopped and gave him a fierce look.

Catherine, who was originally preoccupied with her thoughts while holding Landvo’s arm, was also brought to a stop.

Although Catherine saw Bai Xiaosheng’s ”arrogant posture,” she didn’t have that much anger.

Bai Xiaosheng dared to be arrogant in such a situation, which definitely wouldn’t end well for him. She thought she’d just watch how he’ll ”screw himself.”

What Catherine didn’t realize was that her husband didn’t think the same way.

Frankly speaking, Landvo wasn’t someone without intelligence, nor without depth, nor lacking composure.

Thus, Catherine was careless. Carelessness isn’t exclusive to women; sometimes, men’s tempers are also irrational.

Catherine wasn’t a man, lacking that intense sense of honor, concern for reputation, and the ”peculiar setting” where intelligence drops as soon as tempers flare.

”Why can he sit here?!” Landvo sharply questioned the staff beside Bai Xiaosheng.

The person was also taken aback, looking at Bai Xiaosheng, but they remained silent.

”Why do you dare to sit here!” Landvo knew he wouldn’t get an answer from a junior employee, and he wasn’t after one, but to loudly question Bai Xiaosheng.

Landvo’s shout attracted everyone’s attention.

Catherine couldn’t help but pinch her husband’s arm to hint at him not to bother, just let Bai Xiaosheng dig his grave.

However, seeing Landvo’s hard stance and hearing his high-pitched voice, Catherine, such an intelligent woman, suddenly had a notion.

She might have misunderstood.

Misunderstood that her husband, Landvo, couldn’t contain his anger...

”Could it be that Landvo is trying to incite public outrage, diminish Bai Xiaosheng’s image, and make him the target of everyone’s reproach?!” Catherine thought to herself.

She guessed it right.

Landvo’s rage was genuine, but he also intended to put Bai Xiaosheng under fire.

In the past, Catherine had been Landvo’s think tank, somewhat overshadowing his brilliance. Yet, he could rely on himself to rise to the position of Head of the South American Region of the Zhenbei Group.

One thought or movement contained multiple intents, which was second nature to Landvo!

Onlookers’ attention was drawn to Landvo, then they glanced at Bai Xiaosheng, many of them furrowed their brows.

Bai Xiaosheng, a problematic figure under investigation, sitting there, indeed felt off; they found it annoying earlier but just nobody dared to voice it!

”Indeed, what gives him the right to sit there!”

”Is that seat meant for him?”

”Even we are only seated on the side as observers. Could the central seat be meant for him?!”

”I think he should be standing inside that investigation area!”

”Yes, let him stand there, awaiting the meeting to begin! That’s where he should be!”

”Make him get up, let him stand over there!”

Many discontented voices rose up one after another.

Landvo’s eyes betrayed a subtle hint of triumph.

He intended to stir the crowd’s emotions and make Bai Xiaosheng the target of their ire, turning him into the ”public enemy of the entire meeting.”

This way, watch Bai Xiaosheng struggle!

Bai Xiaosheng looked up at Landvo amidst the noisy clamor, his expression calm, his gaze serene.

The bustling, angry commotion around seemed to him as if ”the bright moon shining over a great river, the gentle breeze caressing a hill.”

Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but glance around, then glare at Landvo. In the past, she would have already stood up to speak for Bai Xiaosheng.

However, in this time and place, she couldn’t.

Saying anything recklessly wouldn’t do Bai Xiaosheng’s image any favors, so Lin Weiwei held back.

Wei Xuelian’s beautiful eyes turned cold, looking at Landvo icily.

At this moment, Bai Xiaosheng spoke.

Looking at Landvo, Bai Xiaosheng first deliberately showed a puzzled expression and asked softly, ”Are you hosting today’s joint investigation, Mr. Landvo?”

Landvo was taken aback, frowned, and said, ”Of course not!”

”Then I suppose I’ve taken your seat, Mr. Landvo?” Bai Xiaosheng courteously continued.

Landvo, though a bit unwilling, still replied, ”No, that’s not my seat!”

”If you’re not hosting today’s meeting, and this isn’t your seat, why are you concerning yourself with where I sit!” Bai Xiaosheng sat up straight, his face firm, speaking each word with cold clarity, ”Where I sit is none of your business!”

The last four words were crisp and clear, reaching the ears of those around.

Everyone was stunned.

Such arrogance!

Landvo looked at Bai Xiaosheng’s mocking smile and his face turned a dark, livid color.

Although Landvo intended to sow enmity against Bai Xiaosheng, he also wanted to publicly humiliate him, to vent his frustration.

Since Bai Xiaosheng had intruded on his domain, he continuously suffered setbacks, even outside earlier; inside, he dared to confront him publicly!

Landvo angrily clenched his fists, glaring at Bai Xiaosheng, wishing he could land a flurry of blows on Bai Xiaosheng’s face.

”This Bai Xiaosheng is far too arrogant!”
