President Shang’s fury was unprecedented, to the point that smoke was almost coming out of his head.

"Damn it, how dare you sell off the Shang Corporation’s equity and subsidiaries, are you out of your mind?" His voice of rage seemed to be squeezed out from his lungs, his face was twisted, and he quickly dialed a number.

However, all that came from Ye Lu’s phone was the sound of an unreachable number. Frustrated and with no outlet for his anger, he threw the phone against the wall, shattering it to pieces.

Meanwhile, the internal line of his office was ringing frantically. As soon as he picked up one call, another one came in. They were all calls from shareholders demanding to know what was going on. They were enraged to learn that Ye Lu had gone on television to announce the sale of stocks.

Several senior executives rushed in with anxious looks on their faces: "We’re in deep trouble, President Shang. As soon as the program aired, our stock market started to fluctuate wildly and keeps falling at an alarming rate. The trend is very disturbing!"

"If more and more investors watch this news, fear will likely escalate. The majority of Shang Corporation’s stocks are held by you and the other major shareholders, while only thirty percent are available in the market. She holds fifteen percent. If she sells, it will definitely cause panic selling. We must find a way to stop this."

Upon hearing this, Shang Jingchen balled his fist and slammed it on the wall.

"Get me the phone number for the TV program staff."

Soon, the producer of the program gave Ye Lu a call, saying that Shang Jingchen wanted to speak with her.

Ye Lu was surprised that he contacted her so soon. It seemed that Shang Jingchen was not a fool and had realized the severity of the situation, wanting to control it as quickly as possible.

"Ye Lu, are you insane? How dare you sell the shares that my grandfather gave you, you greedy and shameless woman."

Shang Jingchen’s uncontrollable rage came over the phone. Despite being transmitted over the waves, his fury was palpable.

Ye Lu gave a small smile. It seemed that she had truly struck a nerve this time.

"Shang Jingchen, screaming at me like this achieves nothing. If you want to solve the problem, then calm down. Otherwise, I do not negotiate with a lunatic; I am hanging up." Ye Lu held the trump card and naturally had everything under control.

He still dared to lose his temper at her, despite how the situation had turned out? Good riddance!

"Don’t you dare...wait a moment." Shang Jingchen took several deep breaths, trying to suppress his rage while feeling a gnawing rage inside.

His greater fury was that he did not anticipate Ye Lu’s stab in the back.

He had always known that she held the shares but never worried about it, thinking that a woman as weak as her wouldn’t dare to do this. She wasn’t smart enough to use these shares to stir up trouble.

Furthermore, he didn’t expect her to be this ruthless today, catching him off-guard and hitting him where it hurt the most.

"Ye Lu, I know you made this announcement with the intent of causing a scene, trying to gain more benefits from me through negotiation. But do you think this will damage the Shang Corporation? Selling off fifteen percent of the shares will not even shake the corporation’s foundation. I advise you to sell your shares back to me. I will pay you ten percent more than the market price, and you won’t be at a loss!"

"Won’t shake Shang Corporation’s foundation?"

"Of course, don’t think you can threaten me with just fifteen percent." Shang Jingchen sneered.

"Then there is really nothing more to say. I’ll just sell it to your competitor."

As Ye Lu was about to hang up,

The previously nonchalant voice on the other side of the phone suddenly stiffened, and Shang Jingchen hurriedly spoke:
