As Jiang Yi was about to get up and leave, Xu Yun walked in from outside the lounge.
Apologetically, she said to Jiang Yi, "Mr. Jiang, I'm really sorry, but there's been a problem with the meeting, and it has to be postponed for several hours. If you're busy, please feel free to go back. I'll call you after the chairman finishes his meeting."
"What happened?" Jiang Yi asked.
"The vice chairman just returned from abroad. During the meeting, he and the chairman had a disagreement over some management issues, so they need to resolve a few things," Xu Yun explained.
"Vice chairman?"
Jiang Yi's brow furrowed.
The vice chairman of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce, returning so soon, wasn't it too coincidental? Or was there another reason?
"How much do you know about this vice chairman?" Jiang Yi asked Xu Yun.
"I don't know very much!"
Xu Yun hesitated for a moment before replying to Jiang Yi, "The vice chairman is the chairman's arch-rival. After failing to compete for the chairman position back then, he left Beijing and hasn't returned for many years. Now that he's back, he's targeting the chairman everywhere. The Beijing Chamber of Commerce will surely not be peaceful in the future!"
"What's his character like?" Jiang Yi inquired.
"The vice chairman has very poor character. He is deeply calculating, uses despicable means, is good at scheming, and is also ruthless and cruel in his actions," Xu Yun stated.
Jiang Yi's brow furrowed slightly.
Although he didn't take this vice chairman seriously, he was still a troublemaker.
His appearance would disrupt the cooperation between Tiansheng Group and the Beijing Chamber of Commerce, and Changsun Xiong would no longer be able to help Tiansheng Group wholeheartedly!
He had to find a way to get rid of this vice chairman.
"I'm not busy right now, I'll wait here for Chairman Changsun," Jiang Yi said.
"Alright!"
Xu Yun nodded and then left the lounge.
Jiang Yi planned to have a good talk with Changsun Xiong later and find a way to deal with this vice chairman together.
Anyone who stands in his way must be removed, no matter who they are.
"Jiang Yi, you were asking about the vice chairman just now, aren't you planning to deal with him?" Dongfang Teng suddenly said to Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi was taken aback by this.
He didn't expect Dongfang Teng to be so perceptive and guess correctly.
"This vice chairman is opposing Chairman Changsun and will definitely try to target Tiansheng Group. In that case, Tiansheng Group won't be able to cooperate smoothly with the Beijing Chamber of Commerce."
"The vice chairman is a big problem for Tiansheng Group, and besides, his return at this time is not that simple!" Jiang Yi explained.
"I think it's better to clarify things first!"
Dongfang Teng said, "No matter what, he is the vice chairman, a top figure in Beijing's business circles. If you act rashly and can't deal with the vice chairman, you'll just cause trouble for yourself, and it won't be worth it!"
Jiang Yi smiled faintly.
There was some truth to what he said.
"Moreover, although you have Tiansheng Group, in terms of strength in Beijing's business circles, you're no match for the vice chairman, so you can't deal with him!"
After saying this, Dongfang Teng continued, "I'm saying this for your own good!"
Jiang Yi's lips curved upwards upon hearing this.
He didn't take this vice chairman seriously at all. If he wanted to deal with him, it wouldn't be difficult.
Jiang Yi waited and waited, leaning back in his chair, and fell asleep.
The weather was very hot, making it easy to doze off.
When Jiang Yi woke up, it was already three hours later, around five in the afternoon.
Jiang Yi stretched and looked at Dongfang Teng.
He found Dongfang Teng sitting upright on the sofa, looking very energetic.
From his posture, it was clear he was very nervous.
To meet Changsun Xiong, he didn't dare to doze off.
"Has Xu Yun been here?" Jiang Yi asked.
"Which Xu Yun?" Dongfang Teng asked, confused.
Jiang Yi then remembered that Dongfang Teng didn't know Xu Yun's name yet.
"The secretary who took us to the lounge just now, her name is Xu Yun," Jiang Yi replied.
"Oh, her!"
Dongfang Teng said, "She came once, saw you resting, and didn't disturb you."
Jiang Yi took a deep breath.
It seemed the meeting hadn't ended yet.
Continuing to wait like this was not an option. The meeting might be postponed for a few more hours, and waiting would be in vain.
"Let's go, we'll come back tomorrow!" Jiang Yi said.
"Alright!"
Dongfang Teng nodded with some disappointment.
He had originally wanted to meet the important figure Changsun Xiong and gain some experience, but he hadn't expected that after waiting for so long, he still couldn't meet him.
Just as Jiang Yi and Dongfang Teng were about to leave, Xu Yun walked in from outside.
"Mr. Jiang, the meeting has ended. The chairman is in his office. I'll take you to see him!"
Xu Yun said.
Jiang Yi nodded and followed.
Dongfang Teng tidied his clothes, and seeing that there was nothing inappropriate, he followed Jiang Yi and the secretary.
Soon, they arrived at the door of Changsun Xiong's office.
Just as Jiang Yi was about to enter, he suddenly heard the sound of things being smashed from inside the room, followed by Changsun Xiong's curses.
"During today's meeting, the vice chairman targeted the chairman everywhere and collected some evidence of the chairman's abuse of power, but this evidence is all fake."
"The chairman has been working hard to clarify this matter until now. He's very angry because of this," Xu Yun explained.
Jiang Yi remained silent.
Anyone would be angry when encountering such a situation.
"I'll go and talk to him!"
Jiang Yi said, then pushed the door open and walked in.
Dongfang Teng hesitated whether to go in.
"Mr. Dongfang, I think it's better for you to stay outside!"
Xu Yun said to Dongfang Teng, "The chairman is in a very bad mood right now. If he loses his temper, it won't be a joke."
Hearing this, Dongfang Teng became a little scared!
Although he really wanted to meet Changsun Xiong, he was afraid and could only give up, standing at the office door waiting for Jiang Yi.
At this moment, inside the office.
Jiang Yi scanned the room and found it in a mess.
Changsun Xiong had smashed everything he could, but his anger was still not fully vented.
Only when he saw Jiang Yi enter from outside did he manage to suppress his rage.
"Mr. Jiang, I'm sorry to have made you witness this spectacle!" Changsun Xiong said awkwardly.
"I've heard all about your situation with the vice chairman!" Jiang Yi said.
Changsun Xiong tried to pour Jiang Yi a cup of tea, but the teapot had been broken.
After all his efforts, Changsun Xiong couldn't fix the teapot, and the poured water spilled all over the floor.
