Chapter 184 - Board Meeting (2)

Her smart answer made the father and son smile while Yang Chún qiàn was thrown off balance. She said, "If you will not speak, then we have doc.u.ments to show the proof!"

She waved a few papers in her hand and said, "These are the doc.u.ments which will prove that he was ill."

The Chairman was very furious. He pounded the table hard and got up from his chair. "Yang Chún qiàn, stop with this nonsense. I am warning you."

"This is no nonsense," saying that she signaled her lawyer to distribute the papers amongst the board members. They were the files from the hospital.

The Chairman looked at Yang Xinyu who seemed angered and had a very cold aura around him. His face was so dark that the Chairman also quivered a little. The Chairman was afraid that Yang Xinyu would react furiously and make his stand weak. But to his surprise Yang Xinyu was contained.

When the board members read the doc.u.ments they started questioning the Chairman.

"How come you allowed Yang Xinyu to continue as the CEO of the company even after he was unwell?"

"We want his immediate removal."

Even the members whom the Chairman had talked with earlier, started demanding Yang Xinyu's resignation.

"Yang Xinyu should step down immediately."

"Yang Chún qiàn is a fair woman. She has exposed the true picture of the Yang family to save the company."

Yang Chún qiàn looked at the Chairman proudly. Not only was she able to initiate removal of Yang Xinyu, she was also able to strengthen her position as a board member. She remembered how the Chairman had threatened her when they had met to file a case against Wu Lina for breaching the contract.

Amidst the confusion, the Chairman called Zhao Hai xiang, who quickly ran to him. He whispered something in his ears and Zhao Hai xiang was seen exiting the room, calling someone.

Wu Lina felt like crying. Because of her, the entire career of Yang Xinyu was at stake. He had gone against the wishes of his mother to marry a girl of his choice. She again had an urge to vomit.

But notably, amongst all the opposition, the Chairman was holding his citadel. He said, "Yang Chún qiàn, I would like you to prove those charges against Yang Xinyu."

What a foolish question, she thought. She smiled and said, "Those doc.u.ments I have distributed are the ones obtained from the hospital. You can take a look at them. Also if you like I can call the director of the hospital to prove that Yang Xinyu was there last year for a month."

The Chairman narrowed his eyes at her and said, "Yang Chún qiàn, you are one venomous snake. You have done so much harm to the company..."

While he was finishing his sentence, the director of the Goldmine Hospital entered the boardroom. He looked at the Chairman meekly.

When the Chairman saw him, he announced, "The director is here Yang Chún qiàn. Prove it!"

Yang Chún qiàn stood from her place. She was not expecting the director to come there. But obviously if he was there then it only supported her claim. She thought how foolish the Chairman is. She looked at the director, crossed her arms and said, "Good morning director."

The director who was looking pale, was cursing his vicious luck for being embroiled between the Yang family time and again, said, "Good morning…"

"Please tell us whatever you know about Yang Xinyu's condition," she said with a winners look in her eyes.

Everybody turned their attention to the director. The director gulped. He looked at the Chairman, and then at the people in front of him and said, "Yang Xinyu's mental health is solid. He has never had any problems whatsoever. He was never admitted to the Goldmine Hospital."

Yang Chún qiàn's face fell. What the hell was the director even saying? Has he gone insane? She yelled at him, "What are you saying you insolent man? Why are you speaking lies? These doc.u.ments here prove that he was admitted to your hospital."

"Which doc.u.ments?" asked the director.

Chen Jungxu handed him the same set of doc.u.ments, which he had handed other board members.

The director took out his reading glasses, wore them slowly and looked at them. After flipping through a few pages he said, "These appear to be fake doc.u.ments. Anyone with a little money can make these fake doc.u.ments."

"Fake? Are you out of your mind, director?" spat Yang Chún qiàn.

"Yes, madam, these are fake. Where is the hospital seal on them? I can't see it," he replied calmly.

He remembered that in order to keep Yang Xinyu's illness a secret, the Chairman had asked to never write anything on legal papers. Hence all the papers lacked hospital seal. It was a hush-hush affair.

Yang Chún qiàn's face became paler. She looked around at all those present in the room. All of them had strange expressions. Now they looked upon her as a woman who was going against her only child, and as a woman who wanted the company to get into rough waters. She appeared to be a woman who was plain vicious.

She saw that Yang Xinyu was staring at her while the Chairman was looking at her with ice-cold gaze. She looked at the director as if he had grown three heads.

The director continued as the silence fell upon the room. "However, I would like to attest another fact. Yang Chún qiàn, the Chairman's wife had been under our supervision for around a month, last month."

Yang Chún qiàn's face fell further. "What are you talking about director?" she said hurling a pen at him.

The director ducked down to save himself.

He continued, "The Chairman had to issue a statement last month about her illness to the office. Please read that statement carefully. The doctors at our hospital attested it. Mrs. Yang had suffered a huge anxiety disorder and hence could not attend her son's marriage."

What just happened? Yang Chún qiàn wondered.
