"I really forgot about that."
Looking at the group of executives and employees gathered outside Fang Yanxi's office like tourists visiting monkeys, all excited, Wan Yunting smiled and waved at them politely. Then he turned to Fang Yanxi and asked with a smile, "When do you get off work?"
Fang Yanxi glanced at her watch and said calmly, "Soon."
"Then let's go back now."
Wan Yunting went over and packed her things, saying with a smile, "I've already invited your grandfather and parents to the house. Go back early to help."
Fang Yanxi stood up and tugged his arm, gesturing towards Ouyang Fanmeng, who was standing awkwardly in front of them. Wan Yunting then realized and said with a smile, "Fanmeng, this is your sister Yanxi."
"Hello, Sister Yanxi."
Ouyang Fanmeng politely smiled and greeted Fang Yanxi.
Fang Yanxi knew that Ouyang Fanmeng was Wan Yunting's younger sister from the moment she walked in, as he had sent her family photos before. She nodded and smiled, "You're Fanmeng, right? Hello."
Ouyang Fanmeng smiled and nodded, feeling a bit awkward and unsure of what to say.
"And who is this?"
Fang Yanxi sized up Zhang Xian'er, who was dressed simply. She looked very young and beautiful, with a pair of peach blossom eyes that seemed to sparkle with stars, exuding an air of spiritual energy.
"Zhang Xian'er, my bodyguard."
Wan Yunting packed her things into her bag and held them, saying casually.
"Bodyguard?"
Fang Yanxi walked out with him and asked doubtfully.
"I'll explain on the way back."
Wan Yunting smiled, gestured to Ouyang Fanmeng and Zhang Xian'er, then generously took Fang Yanxi's hand and left the office together. Seeing the employees still gathered outside, Wan Yunting smiled and said, "Everyone, go back to work."
"Yes, Chairman..."
Someone answered loudly, making Wan Yunting chuckle. He didn't say anything more and led Fang Yanxi, his sister, and Zhang Xian'er into the elevator. Then Zhong Hongmei and Shi Qiang hurried in. Wan Yunting nodded and smiled at them, "Sister Hongmei, Brother Qiang..."
"Mm-hmm."
Zhong Hongmei and Shi Qiang, who were Fang Yanxi's bodyguards, nodded. They were responsible for pressing the elevator button and closing the doors to go downstairs together. Strangely, no one spoke in the elevator. Perhaps it was because the elevator space was too small, and speaking loudly was inappropriate. Everyone subconsciously refrained from talking.
However, Zhong Hongmei's sharp gaze kept darting at Zhang Xian'er, who was beside Ouyang Fanmeng. She could feel a powerful aura emanating from the girl!
Zhang Xian'er naturally noticed her staring, but she didn't seem to care.
They reached the parking garage, and everyone got out of the elevator. Fang Yanxi naturally rode in the same car as Wan Yunting, with Ouyang Fanmeng and Zhang Xian'er in the back. Wan Yunting drove, while Zhong Hongmei and Shi Qiang followed in another car, heading back to Sheng Tangding Mountain.
On the way, Fang Yanxi said, "The headquarters is moving to the capital, and this will become a branch company, but we still need someone to manage it. I discussed this with General Manager Jiang before, but we haven't decided who will take over my position yet!"
Wan Yunting, who was driving, glanced at her and asked, "Are there no suitable executives in the company?"
Fang Yanxi shook her head and said, "The headquarters has only been here for a few months. The vice presidents were poached from other companies, and I don't trust their character. It would be inappropriate to promote them now."
Wan Yunting smiled and said, "You're telling me this, so you must have someone in mind already, right?"
Fang Yanxi turned to look at him and asked, "Is Second Brother going to the capital with you too?"
Wan Yunting glanced at her and shook his head slightly, "Second Brother isn't going. After all, Elder Sister is here. How could they go to the capital with me?"
Fang Yanxi nodded and said, "That's perfect, let Second Brother take my position!"
Wan Yunting turned the steering wheel and smiled, "If you let my Second Brother take your position, aren't you afraid that the company executives will gossip about me behind my back?"
Fang Yanxi rolled her eyes at him speechlessly and said, "You, as the chairman, are really a master of delegation. You don't seem to care about anything anymore."
Wan Yunting looked at her and smiled, "I never wanted to be chairman in the first place. Wen Hao insisted on dumping it on me."
Fang Yanxi waved her hand and said, "Since Second Brother took over the Wang Group, in just a few months, he not only stabilized the Wang Group's crisis but also doubled its stock value. Therefore, industry insiders highly recognize your Second Brother's business acumen and consider him the second Wan Tielin!"
"Oh."
Wan Yunting turned his head and looked at her in surprise. After his Second Brother, Wan Dongming, took over the Wang Group, he rarely paid attention to matters in the Huadu business world. His Second Brother also didn't discuss these topics with him much, as Wan Yunting had been busy with matters related to traditional Chinese medicine...
"It's most appropriate to have Second Brother take my position," Fang Yanxi said.
Ever since Wan Yunting and Jiang Wenhao discussed moving the Chaoting Group headquarters to the capital, Fang Yanxi had already considered having Second Brother Wan Dongming take over the position of Executive President of the Chaoting Group's branch in Huadu.
"Alright, then tonight I'll talk to Second Brother and see if he wants to take your position," Wan Yunting nodded and smiled.
In fact, he was very aware of his Second Brother's capabilities. It was just that the Wang family had not valued him enough before, which had buried his talent for so long.
Upon returning home, Second Sister-in-law Wang Chulin had already brought Wan'er, along with their aunt, her sister Wang Mengyao, and parents Wang Anrong and Zheng Peihui!
"Brother Wan, long time no see."
Wang Mengyao, wearing a designer dress and with her long curly hair elegantly draped down, had a beautiful face and captivating large eyes, very similar to her sister Wang Chulin. Seeing Wan Yunting, she greeted him happily.
"Mengyao, it has been a long time. I thought you had already gone abroad to work."
Seeing this girl Wang Mengyao again, Wan Yunting still remembered her unreasonable and overbearing demeanor when they first met, which left a deep impression on him.
Later, after many events, Wang Mengyao had also grown up and chose to work at one of their Wang Group's overseas subsidiaries, where she was now a general manager.
"Yanxi."
Wang Mengyao also greeted Fang Yanxi generously with a smile.
Fang Yanxi could see that Wang Mengyao had changed a lot, and she nodded with a smile.
Wan Yunting also introduced Wang Mengyao to Ouyang Fanmeng as his sister-in-law's sister. They greeted each other. Then, seeing Wang Anrong and Zheng Peihui coming out of the living room, the couple's faces couldn't help but show embarrassment when they looked at Wan Yunting.
Because Second Brother was a live-in son-in-law of the Wang family, Wan Yunting had caused quite a few conflicts with Wang Anrong and Zheng Peihui when he got out of prison to stand up for his Second Brother.
When the Wang Group ran into trouble, Wang Anrong was kicked out, and Second Brother Wan Dongming took over as chairman. Wang Anrong had fallen ill, but Wan Yunting later cured him.
Now, looking at his son-in-law, Wang Anrong had completely changed his opinion of this incompetent son-in-law after he took over the company and doubled its market value.
Especially after Wan Yunting was released from prison, his achievements in Huadu had completely convinced Wang Anrong, who finally slowly accepted the reality.
"Uncle Wang, Aunt Zheng, Happy New Year."
Seeing Wang Anrong again, Wan Yunting greeted them with a smile.
"Mm, Happy New Year..."
Since falling ill, Wang Anrong had been living a retired life and hadn't seen Wan Yunting again.
Zheng Peihui had seen him, as she had been asked to look after the house when their Second Sister-in-law was pregnant...
"Second Brother is back."
Seeing Second Brother Wan Dongming's car pull in, Wan Yunting and the others turned to greet him. Wan Dongming nodded with a smile and also nodded to his father-in-law and mother-in-law. Wan Yunting smiled and said, "Second Brother, I have something to tell you. Uncle Wang, let's go have some tea over there."
"Okay, please..."
Wang Anrong politely followed Wan Dongming and Wan Yunting to the leisure area on the back lawn. Second Sister-in-law poured them a pot of tea and then went back to the kitchen to help Fang Yanxi prepare the dishes for the evening.
However, with many guests invited tonight, Wan Yunting naturally wouldn't let his family work so hard to cook. He directly called the restaurant to prepare the dishes and deliver them before 7:30 PM.
"Second Brother, our Chaoting Group headquarters is about to move to the capital."
Wan Yunting picked up the teapot and poured tea into the cups of his Second Brother and Wang Anrong, saying, "On the way back, Yanxi discussed with me. She plans to ask you to take over the position of Executive President of the Chaoting Group. I wonder if you agree?"
Wan Dongming, who was about to drink his tea, paused. Wang Anrong next to him was also taken aback.
"I take over as Executive President of the Chaoting Group?"
Wan Dongming was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He put down his tea without drinking and said, "Third Brother, I'm afraid I'm not qualified!"
Wan Yunting smiled and said, "Second Brother, stop being so humble. Yanxi also analyzed it with me and said you are the most suitable person to take over, so don't say that to me. Just tell me if you agree or not?"
Wang Anrong, who was beside them, looked at his son-in-law. Wan Dongming smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that I, your Second Brother, won't achieve results after taking over?"
Wan Yunting waved his hand and smiled, "You were able to bring the Wang Group back to life in just a few months. Do you think I'm afraid that you won't manage the company well as the Executive President?"
This remark made Wang Anrong nod in agreement. He realized that he had underestimated his son-in-law's talent before.
"Since Third Brother says so, then I have no problem," Wan Dongming smiled.
In fact, he was extremely happy in his heart. After all, that was one of China's top financial groups. Although the Huadu headquarters had become a branch, the position of Executive President of the branch was still far superior to his current position as Chairman of the Wang Group.
After all, Chaoting Group, as a domestic financial empire, was not comparable to the Wang Group.
"Dad, if I really go, then I plan to have you return to take over the company chairman position," Wan Dongming turned to look at Wang Anrong and said.
But Wang Anrong waved his hand and smiled, "I'm old and don't have the inclination to take over anymore. You can arrange for someone else."
"Brother Wan, Brother-in-law, have some fruit."
Just then, Wang Mengyao came over with a plate of cut fruit. Wan Dongming looked at her and his eyes lit up. He smiled and said, "Mengyao, don't go abroad this time. Stay and work at home!"
Wang Mengyao, who had just put down the fruit plate, looked at them in confusion and asked, "Why, Brother-in-law? I've already booked my ticket, and I'm leaving the day after tomorrow."
Wan Dongming smiled and said, "Because I want you to come back and take over the company's chairman position."
"Ah?" Wang Mengyao looked surprised and even more confused.
Wan Yunting knew that his Second Brother had decided to have her take over as chairman of the Wang Group, which made Wang Anrong's expression become serious and undeniably excited.
Although he had been kicked out of the Wang Group, he had founded that company himself. If Wang Anrong didn't feel the slightest bit of unwillingness, it would be a lie.
Now, hearing that Wan Dongming wanted to hand over the company's chairman position to his second daughter, Wang Mengyao, how could Wang Anrong not be excited?
