Chapter 115 Ye Xinyi, the Undercurrent

Ye Tianming’s eyes flashed. Suddenly, he smiled faintly and asked, “Brother Bing, do you need me to peel oranges? Or cut some apples? ”

Xiao Bing asked, “Why don’t you give me a direct answer?”

Ye Tianming took out an orange out from the bag, peeled it with his hand, and said softly, “In the Ye Family, there are three people in my generation, namely Ye Xinyi, Ye Tianming and Ye Xiaoxi. I am the only male descendant so the position of chairman belongs to me. There won’t be any competition between me and my sister.”

Xiao Bing sighed emotionally, “You are right. Normally, you will be the heir of the Ye Family enterprise and the backbone of the entire Ye Family. However, Ye Xinyi is almost as good as you and Ye Xinyi is very ambitious. Do you think your sisters will let you take over the position of chairman so easily? ”

Ye Tianming would definitely understand what Xiao Bing was trying to say. Although Ye Tianming appeared to be standing aloof from worldly affairs, Xiao Bing knew that he was hiding his true feelings. Ye Tianming kept his cards close to his chest and no one could read his mind.

Compared to Ye Xinyi, Xiao Bing hoped that Ye Tianming could become the head of the Ye Family. After all, he had a good relationship with Ye Tianming and Ye Tianming treated Yezi better. It seemed that he treated others more sincerely and kindly. Therefore, Xiao Bing wanted to remind him.

Ye Tianming put down the orange peel and handed the orange to Xiao Bing. He smiled and said, “As what you have said, I’m unlikely to let my sister take up the position of chairman because I am the only male descendant in my family. This guarantees that the family business will still belong to the Ye Family in the future. Even if my elder sister is very capable, she doesn’t have any say. Also, even if there are some setbacks, it doesn’t matter to me. When I become chairman, my elder sister will still be my elder sister and I will still be her younger brother. Our conflict will cease to exist. ”

Xiao Bing said emotionally, “Tianming, I actually underestimate you. You fight for your own rights. You are more confident than I have imagined.”

Ye Tianming smiled, “The head of a family and the chairman of a large corporation should be wise, tolerant and confident.”

“Well, I believe you have all these merits.” Xiao Bing sighed. “Ye Bancheng has indeed raised excellent children. Even though your sister is more cunning, all of you are smart and confident. What do you think your elder sister will do next? ”

Ye Tianming said, “She will collaborate with the directors on her side of the company and try to intimidate other directors so to win the selection. Well, this is just one of them… On the other hand, she will work on my father, who is very important. To be honest, I can’t think of any way that she can use to influence my father to support her. I guess she will sweet-talk my father, but it won’t be of much help.”

“To put it bluntly, your elder sister has lost?”

“You can say so.”

Ye Tianming wiped his hands and smiled slightly. He said, “There is no winning or losing, per se between family members. If my father doesn’t mind having his company falls into the hands of other people, I might as well directly give my elder sister the position of chairman.”

Ye Tianming looked at Xiao Bing and asked, “Brother Bing, do you think there is anything more important than human feelings in this world?”

Xiao Bing shook his head. He looked at Ye Tianming and said with a wry smile, “To be honest, Ye Tianming, I can’t tell whether you are speaking the truth.”

Ye Tianming stared at Xiao Bing and said seriously, “I will prove to you one day that I am not the kind of person who sets my sights on my father’s legacy. To me, relationships are more precious than anything else.”

Ye Tianming walked towards the window slowly and opened it. Looking at the gloomy weather outside, his tone was also full of melancholy. He said, “It’s going to rain…”

The status of Ye’s group in Jiang City resembled or even surpassed the status Li Jiacheng had in Hong Kong. Although Li Jiacheng was the richest man in Hong Kong and was the richest Chinese, Hong Kong was a place where rich and powerful families gather. Although no one was richer than Li Jiacheng, some were catching up to him.

Jiang City was different. Ye Bancheng was a household name in Jiang City. Half of the wealth in Jiang City belonged to the Ye Family. The Ye Family had businesses across multiple industries, such as entertainment, real estate, manufacturing, retail, etc. Ye Family had branches all over Jiang City, Province H and even in the outskirts of Province H.

It could be said that the status of the Ye Family even exceeded that of the municipal party committee secretary of Jiang City. If Ye Family collapsed, the economy of Jiang City would inevitably retrogress to its former state a decade ago. This was also the reason why Master Hou feared a little of Ye Bancheng.

Since Ye Family was a joint-stock company, Ye Bancheng held 51% of the shares and the rest were distributed among the six shareholders. The second largest shareholder was Zhang Mingzhi. He was a pioneer who fought alongside with Ye Bancheng. Zhang Mingzhi is now very ill, so he had given all his shares to his son, Zhang Haide.

Zhang Haide had 15% of the shares, but this 15% was nothing in the eyes of Ye’s family. 20% or 30% of the shares were nothing in the eyes of the Ye Family, let alone 15%. Zhang Haide had to listen to Ye’s family as Ye’s family owned 51% and the vast majority.

However, the situation now had become somewhat intricate. Ye Bancheng gave Ye Xinyi 10% of the shares and Ye Xiaoxi 5% of the shares when he was seriously ill. He probably wanted to make plans for the future. If he died, Ye Tianming would inherit the legacy. However, in this way, the rest of Ye Xinyi’s and Ye Xiaoxi’s life would be secured.

However, with the support of all other shareholders and her 10% of the shares, Ye Xinyi would then occupy the majority. She would then become the chairman of the Ye Family.

Ye Bancheng could not have imagined this. The reason why he dared to give the shares to Ye Xinyi was that Ye Xinyi’s surname was Ye. Also, he didn’t think that the shareholders would go against his will. After managing the company for so many years, no one dared to challenge the Ye Bancheng’s authority. These shareholders would choose the chairman as per Ye Bancheng’s decision.

This was the confidence of a king. However, regardless of how capable the king was, his will, authority and everything would vanish after he died.

Although Ye Bancheng was still alive, he had collapsed. This was Ye Xinyi’s only chance, although it seemed slim.

When Ye Tianming was talking Xiao Bing, Ye Xinyi had left the company secretly. She arrived at Zhang Haide’s personal villa.

Ye Xinyi disguised herself and was escorted by masters into Zhang Haide’s villa. A servant came over and said respectfully, “The owner just had a guest. Please proceed to the owner’s room.”

Ye Xinyi left her bodyguards in the hall and walked to the second floor alone. She found Zhang Haide’s room easily. She pushed open the door and went in.

Zhang Haide was watering the pot in the room. When he saw Ye Xinyi coming in, he immediately smiled and said, “Big Missy is finally here.”

Ye Xinyi took off her hat, glasses and mask. She walked towards Zhang Haide and stood by the window. She had a charming smile on her face. She said, “Brother Zhang is in a good mood.”

“Yes. I think growing plants and living a rich man’s life are far better than scheming against one another.”

Zhang Haide put the watering can down and looked at Ye Xinyi. He said, “Like father, like daughter. The chairman didn’t know that he had raised such a good daughter. After the chairman fell ill, she began to go against the chairman’s will.”

Ye Xinyi said, “Throughout the ages, winner takes all. Although Ye Tianming is excellent, he is kind and soft. He is not suitable to be the chairman of the company. He can’t push the company to greater heights. Hence, I should take over.”

Zhang Haide smiled and said, “In any case, Big Missy is ambitious. You are a heroine. I admire you. Just that… my father has always been loyal to the chairman. Although he has transferred all the shares to me, if I really do it, I am afraid…”

Zhang Haide sighed. “I am afraid that I will send him to an early grave.”

“Everyone is bound to die.” Everyone would be fascinated by Ye Xinyi’s charming smile. Upon listening to Ye Xinyi’s words, Zhang Haide was not angry.

Ye Xinyi placed her tender, soft hands on Zhang Haide’s body. She looked at Zhang Haide seductively and provokingly. She said in a rapturous manner, “If you have me, who do you think it is more important, an old man who is going to die or a beautiful woman like me, who is standing in front of you?”

Zhang Haide became breathless. He started to breathe heavily and his eyes reddened. He looked at Ye Xinyi’s smug smile. He shook his head vigorously and stepped back. He looked away and said loudly, “Big Missy, You are a terrible person. After this transaction, I think we should mind our own business. So… Big Missy, don’t tease me anymore. I am afraid I can’t control it.”

Ye Xinyi grinned and pulled out a pink satchel. She took a document out and gave it to Zhang Haide.
