Chapter 427 - Hated That He Had Appeared

Translator: Larbre Studio  Editor: Larbre Studio

If they wanted a new president other than Huo Yunshen, they could only vote for Huo Jingtang. There were no other alternatives.

This was clearly Huo Jingtang’s aim. He had always been an arbitrary person.

The votes were quickly tallied and the results were ready to be released. The people who supported Huo Yunshen stood by their decision and voted for his reappointment. Those who were persuaded by Huo Jingtang voted for him as the new president.

Huo Jingtang remained impassive and expressionless. He was good at hiding his own emotions.

At this moment, his heart was secretly filling with glee in anticipation of his guaranteed victory.

Soon, his goal was going to be realized, and he would be able to stamp Huo Yunshen under his feet.

As he thought of this, he could not help but feel very excited.

After confirming the vote count, Huo Jingtang’s secretary began to announce the results. “According to the voting results, I hereby announce the winner is…”

Before he could announce the winner, there was a loud clatter as the door of the conference center was thrown open. Everyone turned their heads at the door and saw a woman wheeling Huo Yunshen steadily into the room.

Everyone was stunned.

Their president… has come?

That’s right.

Huo Yunshen had arrived. He appeared in the conference room, accompanied by Xu Xiyan.

Today, he wore a jet-black hand-made suit. His white shirt under his coat was neat and crisply ironed, and his twill tie was tucked neatly under the neckline of his suit. He looked stern.

His hair was well groomed and smartly styled. He carried a frosty look on his devilishly handsome face, his eyes sharp and bright under his thick, dark eyebrows. He looked very regal and domineering.

Though he was sitting in a wheelchair, he sat with his back straight and strong and his broad chest lifted, bringing out his inner nobility and exuding an air that he was evidently different than everyone else.

When he entered the conference room, Huo Jingtang was just as shocked as everyone else.

He thought that Huo Yunshen would definitely not come today. He thought that he had struck a fatal blow to him. He thought he had become very depressed and miserable.

However, Huo Yunshen was in good spirits as he appeared in front of everyone. Huo Jingtang was dumbstruck.

Why didn’t he look like he was in despair?

Was his grief yesterday only an act?

Could it be that Huo Yunshen was the one who had outplayed him?

Huo Jingtang stared at Huo Yunshen in astonishment. He hated that he could not stare a dagger through him. He hated that he had come. He hated that he had appeared.

Since Huo Yunshen had come, today’s motion to remove him would definitely fail. Huo Jingtang was only one step away from power, and yet that goal was about to fall apart in front of his eyes.

He was not willing to give up without a fight!

Huo Yunshen was already in front of Huo Jingtang. He shifted his eyes from Huo Jingtang’s face down to the table. “Aren’t you all holding a meeting? Carry on.”

Huo Yunshen’s tone was casual, but for some reason, Huo Jingtang’s secretary was beginning to have stage fright.

It was his turn to continue announcing the results of the voting, but he could not say a single word. He could only look at Huo Jingtang nervously.

Huo Jingtang despised Huo Yunshen to death, but in front of public eyes, he had to put on the act of a caring brother. “Yunshen, why have you come suddenly? Are you feeling better?”

Huo Yunshen gave him a ghost of a smile. “Thanks to your blessings, brother, I’m still alive for now.”

Huo Jingtang could hear in his tone that Huo Yunshen was deliberately provoking him.

Huo Jingtang’s face was becoming a bit chagrined. He glanced at Huo Yunshen as he tried to figure out his intentions. He looked at the way his younger cousin brother had dressed himself; so formal with those white gloves. What is his next move? Is he going to reclaim the post of president?

Huo Jingtang was not the only one who was mulling over the matter. Everyone else in the room was wondering too: what are they going to do next?

Are the two brothers going to quarrel over the president’s post?
