Chapter 424: Chapter 424: No one needs to persuade me! _1
At once, Hai Xiaotang felt a sense of dread deep in her heart.
She sneaked to the outside of the conference room, only to overhear the heated argument transpiring within.
“Dongfang Yu, what exactly are you being obstinate about? Which is more important to you: women or your company? Are you content only when the company’s gone to ruin?”
“Ayu, all we’re asking for is a temporary divorce. After this crisis is over, we’ll discuss further. Why can’t you agree to this?”
“What temporary divorce? I think Hai Xiaotang is entirely unworthy of setting foot in the Dongfang Family’s household!”
“Enough–” Dongfang Yu couldn’t bear to listen any longer, and reprimanded coldly, “All of this has nothing to do with Hai Xiaotang. I can’t believe you would blame everything on her. You’re not targeting her, but me!”
Despite the fact that those present were members of the Dongfang Family, some even Dongfang Yu’s elders,
the moment he became angry, nobody dared to speak.
Only Dongfang Yuanming, in a stern manner, pronounced, “Ayu, you say all of this doesn’t concern her, do you take us for fools? We heard, Hai Zhiyuan’s done something wrong and has gone into hiding. You’ve been aiding him secretly, isn’t it? That’s why those above are moving against us. We’ve kept quiet all this while, hoping you would come to your senses, but it seems you’re stubbornly blind!”
As the most senior member had spoken, the others began to have no qualms about speaking their minds.
“Dongfang Yu, are you really going to disregard our entire family’s fate for one woman? Don’t forget, this company doesn’t belong to you alone!”
“Dongfang Yu, if you refuse to divorce Hai Xiaotang and distance yourself from all these troubles, we’ll have to convene a board meeting and elect a new president!”
Facing their threats, Dongfang Yu scoffed.
He arrogantly rebuked, “I [bet if you had the capability to replace me as the president, it would have been done already!”
“You… Dongfang Yu, don’t you think we have no way of dealing with you!”
“Uncle, aren’t you going to say anything?” Someone turned to Dongfang Zujie, “Dongfang Yu is your son, you should persuade him.”
Dongfang Yuanming also interjected, “Zujie, you definitely have to control Ayu well. We don’t want to tear them apart either, but our family can’t be destroyed. If we were to lose the company, we’d all be done for!”
Dongfang Zujie nodded, and responded in a grave tone, “Second uncle, you’re right, we can’t let anything happen to the company. Everyone should go home, I’ll talk to him. Don’t worry, I’ll ensure a satisfactory resolution.”
“No one needs to advise me!” Dongfang Yu interrupted their conversation, his tone icy as he declared, “The company is simply under scrutiny right now, there’s no issue yet. If you all are panicking now, an issue would certainly arise sooner or later! And Hai Xiaotang is my wife, none of you have any right to interfere in our affairs. Anyone disrespectful in the future will be ordered to leave the company!”
Leaving behind harsh words, Dongfang Yu spun around and left—
the moment he swung the door open, he was taken aback to see Hai Xiaotang standing at the doorway.
Hai Xiaotang looked gravely at him, as though she wanted to say something but couldn’t find the words.
Dongfang Yu furrowed his brows, but he didn’t say another word either, choosing to pull her along as he walked away.
His stride was quick, leading her to stumble to keep up from behind as they entered the elevator to the rooftop.
Dongfang Building’s rooftop had a recreational area, complete with a swimming pool.
Dongfang Yu led her to the poolside before he finally stopped.
He turned around to face her, and asked with certainty, “Did you hear everything?”
