Chapter 029 The Zhong Family's Annual Meeting
The next morning, it was still gloomy and raining outside the window, and the whole city was shrouded in fog!
Ren Yimeng finished washing up and did yoga, and was about to take a bath, when he saw the mobile phone breathing light flashing, and a message from Zhong Xu'an at ten o'clock in the evening: "I know." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
These three words can obviously not be returned, since he can come back, it means that he is not indifferent to himself! Ren Yimeng thought for a while, and knocked on the phone screen with a smile: "When will you come back, remember to bring me a gift!" ”
As soon as the message was sent, Ren Yimeng took his clothes and was about to take a shower, and the phone rang!
"Awake?" Zhong Xu'an's voice on the phone was slightly low, with a lost magnetism.
"Well, it's been more than half an hour since I got up, and it was raining outside and I slept early yesterday." Ren Yimeng sat cross-legged on the sofa, and before she could speak, she felt like a kitten when she got up, which made the person on the other end of the phone itch.
I still remember the first time I woke up by the pillow and saw people, the sun was attached to the fair and smooth skin, Ren Yimeng's sleeping face was well-behaved and quiet, and there was a shallow smile at the corner of her mouth, there was no beauty when she was awake, and there was no cuteness when she was annoyed, at this time she was the easiest to attack!
Zhong Xu'an listened to Ren Yimeng talk about how she passed the draft this time, listened to her plans for the next few days, and listened to her full of confidence and ambition, he occasionally responded or sarcastically, but he didn't hang up the phone!
Shen Zhiru knocked on Zhong Xu'an's door, and when she saw him nodding, she walked in with a smile and sat on the sofa! She has always been arrogant to him, although he is the first successor of the Zhong family, although he now has a luxurious life from her, but who makes him like him! She was just one of his rightful possessions, and every time she met Zhong Wenli, the joy in her heart came more from temporarily getting rid of Zhong Xu'an's control!
In the past ten days, Zhong Xu'an has not called again, she knows that he is angry, hearing that his engagement is going on as scheduled, Shen Zhiru has been worried and has missed and regretted it so much, but she is sure that he will come to pick her up! In the past, he held the Zhong family's annual meeting through video, but this year he came to country M, isn't it just for her?
Shen Zhiru sat dignifiedly, looking at her beautiful hands with a layer of pink nails, clenching them little by little! Zhong Xu'an has a heavy responsibility, except for facing himself, he has always had a cold face and no extra patience! However, Zhong Xu'an, who patiently listened to what the other party said for ten minutes, naturally had a smile on the corner of her mouth, which made her feel inexplicably flustered, this is only her treatment!
Hanging up the phone, Zhong Xu'an put away his smile and stared coldly at Shen Zhiru, who was pretending to be as usual, with a signature pen in his hand!
"Xu An, I'm sorry that day, I wasn't ready to get engaged to you, but I didn't know how to tell you, so I hid. I know it's wrong, I should have communicated with you sooner! Shen Zhiru said softly with a crying voice, she raised her head slightly, and saw that Zhong Xu'an was unmoved, so she said aggrievedly and accused: "But then I called you, and you didn't answer, you, why did you get engaged to someone else?" ”
For a long time, Zhong Xu'an still didn't speak, Shen Zhiru stood up timidly, walked to his side, and seemed to muster up a lot of courage to wrap her arms around his neck, "I, I don't mind you getting engaged, I know that you must have to be engaged to someone else for the sake of the Zhong family's face." When I heard the news that you were engaged to someone else, my heart hurt so much, and I realized how much I liked you and how much I regretted my willfulness at that time! Don't you be upset, okay? ”
Zhong Xu'an tore off her arm, hummed, then stood up and picked up her coat and walked out, "I will be busy with the family meeting in the past few days, you and Mo Tian will go back to China first." ”
Shen Zhiru took two steps forward, wiped her tears and said with a smile: "Okay, I will wait for you at home obediently!" "Mo Tian is one of Zhong Xu'an's special assistants, and he was basically arranged by him to take over all the affairs of Shen Zhiru! In Shen Zhiru's impression, Zhong Xu'an is angry and accustomed to cold violence, and he eats his own coquettish and soft, basically as long as he speaks, the two of them will be regarded as turning the page!
Out of the office, Zhong Xu'an went to take a shower and change clothes with a gloomy face, and did not forget to order someone to replace the carpet and sofa in the office with new ones!
Most of the members who had rushed to country M from all over the world to attend the Zhongjia meeting had arrived, and this was the first time in five years that everyone had gathered in the mountain villa for a meeting!
On the second day, more than 400 members of the Zhong family gathered in a 1,000-square-meter luxury conference room! The head of the Zhong family is a five-year term, and this system was proposed by Zhong Xu'an's merciful father, just to give his eldest son the opportunity to climb to the position of the head of the Zhong family! And the condition that the candidates include the elders of the clan and the descendants of the patriarch was unanimously approved in the clan council!
This year happens to be the five-year period for Zhong Xu'an to become the head of the family, and the old man Zhong, who was recuperating from his illness, is already alive and is sitting in the position of candidate for the head of the Zhong family!
Also in the candidate position is Zhong Wenli, as well as several descendants of the elders!
Opposite them were the ten respected elders of the Zhong family, and the most conspicuous were two young men under the age of thirty!
Zhong Xu'an sat at the head of the conference room with the patriarch! He squinted and stroked his chin as he listened to the members report on the benefits achieved by the Zhong family in a year!
The patriarch beside him nodded with satisfaction when he heard this, especially when he heard that Zhong Wenli had established a complete intelligence network around the world and used intelligence as a commodity to obtain many benefits, his white beard shook excitedly! Everyone in the clan association is actually more inclined to Zhong Wenli to become the next head of the family, not to mention that the old man Zhong has been the head of the family for more than ten years, and his mediocre performance almost made the Zhong family divided by other forces, let's just say that since Zhong Xu'an, the little guy, has been in the position of the head of the family, and the clan association is almost equivalent to nothing!
Even if Zhong Xu'an develops and grows the Zhong family, the bigger the cake, the more people want to get a piece of the pie! This kind of ambition was gradually amplified to swell in Zhong Wenli's lobbying one by one!
"Master An, it's your turn!" The patriarch smiled sideways and said to Zhong Xu'an, although there were more than 400 people attending the meeting, there were only a few dozen people who reported, and each of them showed the most intuitive situation, but it didn't take much time!
Zhong Xu'an still said the same as in previous years, "Their achievements are my report!" ”
"An family master, according to the five-year family head period proposal passed by the previous family head, we have reelected the next family head at this meeting!" After receiving the hint from the patriarch, the presiding officer of the meeting said, "You have no objection, right? ”
Zhong Xu'an looked at everyone and couldn't resist his calm gaze and lowered his head one after another, only Old Man Zhong stared at the tiger's eyes, and Zhong Wenli seemed to look back indifferently and provocatively! "Nope!" He paused and spit out these two words, and everyone only felt great joy blooming in their hearts when they heard it! As long as he agrees, then the next step is to go through the normal procedure, and it is no longer something that he Zhong Xu'an can control!
