Chapter 136 - Yezi Takes Charge

Chapter 136 Yezi Takes Charge

Yezi fell into Xiao Bing’s embrace, but she didn’t cry. Even though she was heartbroken, she didn’t shed a tear as she remembered what Ye Tianming said before jumping off the building. She hoped that she could continue to live happily and stay strong. The family was broken. Perhaps Father, Mother, Elder Sister and Elder Brother could reunite in another world. They would certainly forgive each other after clearing the misunderstanding.

Xiao Bing hugged Yezi pityingly and said, “Yezi.”

“I know.” Yezi smiled as she left Xiao Bing’s embrace. She looked at Jiang Wanting, bowed deeply and said, “Officer Jiang, I think this case is almost over. Thank you for helping us investigate this case. I only have a request.”

Jiang Wanting looked at the poor girl. Although police officers often had to face such things, she still felt heartbroken. She was impressed by Yezi’s strength. Jiang Wanting said hurriedly, “Please say.”

“This matter has come to an end. My brother is the culprit, but he is already dead and has received his punishment. I hope the police can keep this matter a secret. Although my brother is at fault, he has paid the price after all. I don’t want him to be accused by outsiders after his death.”

Jiang Wanting nodded and said, “No problem.”

Yezi continued, “There’s Liu Piaopiao. She is actually the victim of the entire matter. Although she is partly responsible for what has happened, even without her, I think my brother will find someone else to replace her. She is now charged with only one crime, that is, attempted murder. Can the police give her a lighter sentence?”

Jiang Wanting looked at Ye Xiaoxi in surprise. She thought Ye Xiaoxi would hate that woman, but she didn’t expect her to return good for evil. Moreover, at this moment, Ye Xiaoxi acted like a real leader in the family. There was a tinge of sadness in her eyes. Apart from sadness, she looked determined!

This was a strong girl. Perhaps, although she looks small and weak, with her strong willpower, Ye Family would not collapse after so many tragedies. She was strong enough to support the company.

Like father, like daughter!

Jiang Wanting said, “My hands are tied but I will try my best to entrust someone to take good care of her in prison. If you want to visit her, you can do so at any time.”

“Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

Jiang Wanting began to recall her the team. They pushed Bao Lei out and prepared to send him back to the hospital. Ye Tianming’s body had to be taken away. It needed to undergo forensic identification before returning to Ye Family for the funeral.

Jiang Wanting left. Zhang Zedan looked at Xiao Bing anxiously and asked, “Mr. Xiao, I have completed your task. I have just said those words which should have been said. Do I still stay in the company?”

Xiao Bing shook his head and said, “I don’t object mercenary people. People in this world will inevitably pursue interests. However, I don’t trust having a mercenary person to be hanging around with Yezi. So, now that you have gotten the money, you can go.”

Zhang Zedan breathed a sigh of relief and said respectfully, “Mr. Xiao, you are not an ordinary person. You are very wise. Since you have spoken, I will leave now.”

After speaking, Zhang Zedan appeared relieved and left the conference room.

Yezi looked at Xiao Bing and smiled. “Brother Bing, rest assured. Ye Family will not collapse.”

Xiao Bing said softly, “Yezi…”

“Don’t say further, I am fine… I will be strong. I won’t be a burden to you and won’t let those who are still alive or have passed away worry about me.”

“OK.” Xiao Bing nodded and sighed. “What are you going to do next?”

“I want to go to school to handle some administration first. I won’t go to school in the future as the company needs me here. You don’t need to worry about my graduation certificate and other miscellaneous stuff. They would still pass them to me even if I didn’t go. The company is currently in a mess. First my elder sister and my father, then my elder brother. I think their morale is very low, so I must find a way to let them settle down. As the company has undergone all kinds of incidents during this period of time, I’m afraid the competitors have already started to eye Ye Group. I must first appease the senior employees. I don’t know anything, so I can only rely on them to tide over this difficult period together.”

Xiao Bing was relieved and said, “Yezi, you have really grown up.”

“Yes, I have to grow up.” Yezi smiled bitterly, but she was smiling after all. “Brother Bing, I want you to stay and help me for these days…”

“No problem,” Xiao Bing said straightforwardly, “I’ll stay here until you resolve this matter. The noodle house should be able to operate without me. I heard that Auntie Li had just been discharged. In addition, the noodle house has hired several new employees. Furthermore, the senior employees in the noodle house could help. There shouldn’t be any issue.”

Yezi sighed. She hugged Xiao Bing and kissed Xiao Bing’s mouth. What soft tender lips… Xiao Bing smiled heartily.

“Brother Bing, accompany me to the chairman’s office first. It will belong to me in the future. A board meeting must be held today. I want to have a good talk with the directors so as to ensure a smooth transition first.”

At this moment, Yezi displayed her leadership capabilities. She left the conference room with Xiao Bing. Lil Bei supported Xiao Bing while Dumbass followed them. While walking, he winked at Lil Bei and said, “See, Sister-in-law just kissed Brother Bing.”

Yezi looked back and glared at Dumbass. She wanted to say something mushy, but she couldn’t help but sigh secretly after thinking about those troubles. No matter how strong or mature she was, her family had undergone so many things after all. It was impossible to completely not think about it.

Upon arriving at the chairman’s office, they realized the door was locked. Yezi went directly to the secretary’s office, which was next to the chairman’s office. The bespectacled chairman’s secretary was in her early thirties and appeared mature and capable. Her name was Li Huiyong. Yezi had seen her before and she also knew Yezi. Upon seeing Yezi, she stood up immediately and said, “Second Missy.”

“Yes,” Yezi nodded and said, “Open the door of my father’s office for me.”

“This…” Li Huiyong hesitated. “The office now belongs to Big Young Master…”

Yezi appeared sad and said, “My brother is no longer around…”

“Not around?” Li Huiyong was stunned. She then asked, “Where did he go?”

Just then, the phone on her desk suddenly rang. She excused her hurriedly and picked up the phone. The head of the department of security said anxiously over the phone, “Secretary Li, Big Young Master has committed suicide by jumping off the building. His body has been taken away by the police. The company is now in a mess. Many people seem perturbed and say that they want to resign. What should we do now? Do you want to inform Second Missy and the directors of the company?”

Li Huiyong was shocked when she heard this. She glanced at Yezi and then said, “Second Missy is with me. Please calm the subordinates down first. I will get Second Missy to deal with the company’s affairs.”

With a slam, she hung up the phone. Yezi said, “Could you help me open the door of the chairman’s office now?”

Li Huiyong warbled, “Could you tell me… how did Big Young Master die?”

Yezi hesitated for a moment. She sighed and said, “He couldn’t handle the pressure and committed suicide by jumping off the building.”

Li Huiyong appeared sad. She sighed and said, “Ye Family has undergone too many things recently. Second Missy, please take good care of yourself. As Big Young Master is not around, you will have to take charge of the company. However, it is necessary to notify the other directors. The board meeting should be held first.”

“Yes, I know that. Please notify all the members of the board immediately. I will hold the board meeting at the conference room at 3 p.m. Also, please close all the company’s exits and gather all the members of the company at 5 p.m. I have something to say.”

“OK.” Seeing that Yezi had arranged everything nicely, Li Huiyong was relieved. She took out the key and went out to help Yezi open the door of the chairman’s office. She then gave Yezi the key and sent Yezi and the rest into the office respectfully.

After entering the office, Xiao Bing looked at Dumbass. He smiled and said, “There are still many things to settle in the noodle house. Go back first. Lil Bei will stay with me for the time being.”

“OK.” Dumbass placed his hands into his pocket. He smiled and said, “I’m hungry and I don’t have any money with me.”

Xiao Bing smiled as he took out several hundred dollars from his pocket. He gave the money to Dumbass. Dumbass grabbed the money, opened the door and went out happily. Before leaving, he turned back and shouted, “Treat this money as part of my salary. Dock this amount from my salary.”

“Scram!” Xiao Bing criticized. “It’s my treat.”

“Then I won’t stand on ceremony.” With that, Dumbass closed the door and ran away.

Xiao Bing smiled and shook his head. He sat down on the sofa and said, “This brat.”

Xiao Bing looked at Yezi again and said, “I’m relieved to see that you have cheered up.”

After sitting on the office chair, Yezi almost collapsed on it. She said, “Brother Bing, I am actually quite nervous, but I just can’t show it. Although I am part of Ye Family and the rest are all gone, the shares naturally belong to me. The directors have to listen to me, but they may not be convinced. I am only a student and have not even graduated from school. They are very experienced and they are all my seniors. I am really afraid… I can’t convince the masses.”

Xiao Bing laughed and said, “I have a way if you can’t convince the masses.”

Yezi asked, “Brother Bing, do you have an idea?”

“Sometimes, even though you are forced… it is necessary to use some unconventional means, such as… force!” Xiao Bing’s eyes glittered faintly.
