ink, paper, and inkstones. Xue Liang soon found him.Under everyone's gaze, Ye Bufan reached out and picked up a brush, dipped it in ink, and turned to walk towards the ancient painting on the wall.The...Mrs. Su stared intently at her daughter, unwilling to seek help from her husband. She wanted to handle the situation herself, maintaining absolute control over what came next.

Su Ruyu remained just as resolute, her eyes filled with stubbornness.

Since you've already taken the first step of rebellion, you will never back down, and you will not become that repressed person you were before.

"Notify everyone immediately, a board meeting will be held in one hour."

Mrs. Su ultimately made her decision.

She made excuses to herself, saying that she and Su Hongzhang were still young and their daughter needed further nurturing.

Even if the position of CEO takes a hit, it's no big deal. Time heals all wounds.

Ye Bufan made a prediction last night with Su Ruyu. He said if she didn't resist, she would live in the shadow of Madam Su her whole life because this woman's desire for control is too strong.

Even if she takes over as chairman in the future, and even if Su Hongzhang dies, as long as Mrs. Su is still alive, she will still rule from behind the scenes.

To be free, to live a happy and joyful life, there's only one path: rebellion.

The executive assistant stood beside her, unsure how to respond after hearing Mrs. Su's order.

In theory, she should be listening to Su Ruyu's orders as the CEO assistant. However, Mrs. Su has been in power for too long and is afraid of defying her.

"What are you still standing there for Go and notify everyone, we need to hold a group board meeting here within an hour."

Su Ru Yue repeated it again.

The executive assistant, finally relieved, hurried to send out the notice.

Su Ru Yue got up and returned to her own office, slamming the door shut as she entered.

Mrs. Su originally wanted to follow in and talk, but seeing this situation she stopped in her tracks.

She thought her daughter must have been drugged by Ye Bufan. In this situation, talking alone wouldn't work; she had to make the other party clearly see who was the true controller of the Su Corporation.

So she didn't go to knock on the door, but went back to her own room instead.

An hour later, the temporary board of directors of Su Group formally convened in the conference room.

Generally, for large listed companies like the Su Group, the board of directors needs to be notified in advance.

However, most of the Su Group's board members reside in the imperial capital, so the internal bylaws do not specify a required notice period in advance.

As long as two-thirds of the board members are present after the notice, the board meeting can be convened, which fully complies with the group's regulations.

There are ten minutes left before the meeting starts, and colleagues have begun to arrive.

Mrs. Su arrived at the conference room early and stood by the door, greeting each colleague incessantly.

Although she is not an official board member and holds no shares, her influence within the board is considerable due to her status as Su Hongzhang's wife.

She is confident that she can control the flow of the meeting today and achieve her ultimate goal.

After explaining his intentions to several trusted board members, he became even more confident.

Think Su Ru Yue, acting as the president, is playing childish tantrums with me. She'll be sobered up soon enough.

A few minutes later, the number of directors from the Su Group had reached 22 out of the original 30, exceeding the required two-thirds majority and meeting the standard for convening a board meeting.

The message quickly spread among the board members, and they finally understood why the emergency board meeting was called so urgently. It turned out to be a conflict between the mother and daughter.

When the appointed time arrived, Su Ru Yue walked in. Su Hong Zhang was not present. She directly sat down at the position of chairman of the board and presided over today's meeting.

"Distinguished colleagues, as the President of the Su Group, I believe that dismissing the two department heads of the Security Department falls within my purview."

"Since we're holding a board meeting, let's take a vote. Those in favor of firing Zhang Chao and Zhao Peng, please raise your hand."

After she finished speaking, the atmosphere in the entire conference room became heavy. Many people looked at each other, but in the end, no one raised their hand.

Although Su Ru Yue is the president, and although she is the sole heir to the Su Corporation, she has not yet officially taken over.

Most importantly, Su Hongzhang is only in his fifties now and in very good health. He has a long way to go before retirement.

In normal circumstances, everyone in the company would definitely support Su Ru Yue. However, when it came to taking sides, these people ultimately chose to stand with Su Hong Zhang and Mrs. Su.

After a long time, no one raised their hand to support her. A trace of disappointment flashed in Su Ru Yue's eyes.

Although she knew in her daily life that she was controlled by her mother and that she may not have many people supporting her, she didn't expect it to be this serious, to the point where not a single person stood by her.

Mrs. Su's lips curled into a triumphant smile as she addressed the audience below: "Those in favor of supporting the decision to revoke this order and retain Zhang Chao and Zhao Peng's positions, please raise your hands."

This time, things were different. After Mrs. Su made her suggestion, a bald man in the front row, who was her loyal follower, raised his hand first.

After him, others also raised their hands one after another to express their agreement.

Seeing all 22 board members raise their hands in support, Mrs. Su's smile widened. She looked at Su RuoYue and said, "See This is the board's vote. Your decision is invalid. Zhang Chao and Zhao Peng must retain their positions."

"Great, wonderful!"

Su Ru Yue looked down at the 22 board members, a faint sneer playing on her lips.

According to Madam Su's previous prediction, once the board votes, her daughter should clearly see the situation bowing down to herself, even apologizing to herself.

Unfortunately, she was wrong. She looked at the problem with her old perspective.

Having broken free from the shackles in her heart and unleashed that devil, Su Ruyu would absolutely not allow herself to become the puppet she once was.

This result right before my eyes caused years of pent-up grievances to explode within me instantly.

Last night, she had already fantasized with Ye Bufan that if he didn't become the president, the two of them could be happily together without any big deal.

This CEO position is nothing but responsibility and oppression for her, devoid of any allure or joy.

She looked down at the 22 board members, a smirk still playing on her lips: “Not bad, your decision is truly excellent! Not a single person among so many voted in favor.”

Since I, as the president, am so unaccepted by the board of directors, there's no point in continuing.

I formally announce that, effective immediately, I am resigning from the position of president. You may now elect a president whom you deem fit to lead.

After he finished speaking, it felt like a huge weight had been lifted from his chest, and he instantly felt much lighter.

Only then did she realize that, between the identities of the president of the Su Group and the proprietress of the clinic, she actually preferred the latter.

At first, she was a little bit stubborn. But now, she realizes that this decision is actually a good one.

Last night, my happiness was more than it had been in the previous twenty years.

So she wanted to be with Ye Bufan and be that happy little woman.

A happy smile spread across her face.

She was happy, but everyone present was stunned. No one expected Su Ruyu to make the decision to resign.

I originally thought it was just a conflict between the president's wife and the president's daughter. I thought we could just take sides and vote to resolve it, but it escalated beyond my expectations and ended up like this.kes."Ye Bufan said, "First, Wei Ping and I are equal. If I lose, I will obediently roll out of Cangfeng Academy. If Wei Ping loses, he will have to roll out as well.""This can work."Fan Xiaofeng readi...
