Chapter 1854: The Betrayer

Wen Corporation was facing yet another crisis.

After being deeply trapped in the case of money laundering with regards to the entertainment city project, the credibility of many years of business was gradually being ruined—clothing with quality problems entered the market, leading to the destruction of the company’s brand image. The company’s market share was also constantly shrinking, and it had been almost impossible to maintain. The stock prices of the company had been rapidly falling, and the biggest problem was that internal rebellion among the higher-ups resulted in conflicts during shareholder meetings.

Wen Xinya looked at Grandpa and realized that there were now more white hairs on his head. He was feeling okay, just that he had no freedom and was locked in the cell most of the day. It was natural that his mental health would be affected.

She updated her Grandpa on the latest problems that Wen Corporation was facing, including Xue Yishan’s investigation outcome of the release of low-quality pieces of clothing into the market.

Old Mr. Wen had been in this field for years and managed to understand what was going on from the information that he was provided with. “The rebellion involving the higher-ups cannot be investigated any longer, because this incident involves so many higher-ups and has already reached such a level. What do you think of that person?”

Indeed, the older ones had the most experience.

Even with such little information, Old Mr. Wen had already guessed who the core of the rebellion among the higher-ups was.

Wen Xinya’s face darkened. “Although I have no evidence, however, I have basically confirmed this person’s identity.”

She then said the name of the person.

After she had obtained the information from Xue Yishan’s investigation, she put in a lot of effort into analyzing the information. Although this was information that provided little direction, however, after careful analysis, she was able to see things that others would not be able to.

Old Mr. Wen closed his eyes and exuded exhaustion. “There are three things I hate most in my life: deception, betrayal, and those who are cheap and weak. Since it’s like this, you can do what you need to do, you don’t have to bother about me.”

All these years, he felt that he had not treated him badly and had always appreciated and valued him, yet he never would have expected that he would turn out to be someone that would turn against him once he stopped helping him. He had raised a wolf.

Indeed, he was able to guess who it was, more or less.

Xinya used her merciless tactics to clear Wen Corporation of those who were a threat to the corporation’s internal stability and the welfare of the higher-ups and directors in the board of directors. These people would betray Wen Corporation, and this made her feel the chills.

Wen Xinya said, “Betrayers are unforgiveable. Since he has done all these, then I’m sure he wouldn’t mind me sending him straight to hell.”

She did not actually plan to reveal the betrayer’s identity, but she intended to treat him coldly and play all sorts of tricks on him to slowly force him into a corner and make sure he would never be able to stand up again.

Old Mr. Wen did not argue against it and said coldly, “Qian Jianhui that old thing, he had never been satisfied with what he has. Now that he’s buying up the shares of the shareholders, he must want to take absolute control of the Wen Corporation while I’m being detained.”

“Wen Corporation’s operations have been shrinking continuously, and the shareholders are bound to group together to make sure that the amount of shares that the Wen Family hold is no longer significant, to make sure our shareholding ratio continues to drop and to make the Wen Family business lose everything. At this time, given the chance, Qian Jianhui would make sure to regroup the shareholders at a shareholder meeting to make sure that he’s able to control a large company like ours with his limited number of shares.”

If this continued on, the Wen Family would lose control of the Wen Corporation.

This was good news to shareholders, and the shareholders would naturally support Qian Jianhui taking charge. However, to Wen Corporation, this was not a good idea at all.

Wen Xinya realized that Qian Jianhui had been planning this for a while and laughed coldly. “I won’t deny that Qian Jianhui planned this well—stock dilution would bring about greater development potential for the Wen Corporation—but we cannot allow anyone to attempt to take control over the Wen Corporation during times of crises!”

Wen Corporation belonged to the Wen Family. If Qian Jianhui wanted to take it over, he would have to ask for her permission first.

Old Mr. Wen’s expression was strict. “Qian Jianhui will not be easy to deal with, he seems kind but actually has a heart of evil. After all the shareholder meetings he has attended, although he doesn’t hold many shares, he wins the hearts of the shareholders, unlike the Wen Family.

“The reason is that he is able to attain the support of a majority of the small shareholders, this has resulted in a strong force against the Wen Family. If not for the fact that he held few shares, our decision-making power and overall control of the Wen Corporation as the main shareholder would have been destroyed.”

He and Qian Jianhui had been competing in wits and bravery for many years. Hence, he knew that Qian Jianhui was a force to be reckoned with.

All these years, he had been using his shares to suppress Qian Jianhui, but in the end, he was unable to suppress his ambition and could not actually do anything about it.

Today, he was at the police station, and Xinya was young and relatively inexperienced and was not ready to lead the shareholders meeting. Hence, Qian Jianhui was the only leader at the shareholders meeting, and now that he held 15% of the Wen Corporation’s shares, they were afraid he would not come with kindness.

Even Old Mr. Wen did not know how to deal with him, what more Xinya.

“Grandpa, since you have handed Wen Corporation to me, then please trust me. I won’t let him get what he wants. Wen Corporation is what you have worked hard for over half your life, I won’t let it fall into just anyone’s hands.”

Wen Xinya had been collecting information about Wen Corporation’s important and major shareholders over the years, so she knew what Qian Jianhui was like.

Qian Jianhui would be hard to deal with.

Yet, it did not mean he was undefeatable.

Old Mr. Wen gradually calmed down and his frustration dissipated. He looked at her, heartened, and said, “It’s not that Grandpa does not have faith in you, I’m just worried to let you deal with Qian Jianhui that sly old fox alone. It has been hard on you for having to deal with Wen Corporation’s internal and external problems.”

He was indeed worried that Xinya would not able to defeat Qian Jianhui, but since he had entrusted Wen Corporation to his granddaughter, no matter what the outcome for Wen Corporation was, he had absolute faith in her.

Wen Xinya held onto Grandpa’s hands and solemnly assured him. “Grandpa, I promise you, I will watch over Wen Corporation and wait for you to return from the police station.”

As long as Grandpa returned from the police station, half of Wen Corporation’s current problems would be resolved.

Old Mr. Wen shook his head and emotionally said, “Xinya, you’re not young anymore. All these years you have been taking part in Wen Corporation’s operations, and everyone knows how capable you are...” He hesitated and his face softened, and his eyes were filled with confidence as he said, “After Wen Corporation solves this crisis, your position in Wen Corporation will be stabilized and I will be able to properly hand the corporation over to you. Then, it will be time for me to retire and enjoy my old age!”

When he mentioned retirement, he planned to completely step down.

It was unlike when he first handed the Wen Corporation to Wen Haowen but still maintained control over it.

He had planned to do this long ago, it was just that Xinya was passionate about jewelry design. He went back and forth because of all her hints, he had no other choice.

Wen Xinya did not promise him, but she did not reject him either. She simply smiled and said, “Let’s talk about this in the future!”
