Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle

Shen Yue and An Xiulan were still talking when they saw the directors and shareholders along with employees coming their way. It meant that the conference had ended and therefore everyone was there. She thought that it would take more time but surprisingly it ended soon.

“The meeting ended, “Shen Yue said to An Xiulan. She saw that An Qinyan was not with all of them which meant the latter went straight to her office. From the look on the board of directors’ faces, it could be seen that something unexpected came. The leader of the pack did not have his usual gloating look. Instead, that proud and floating face was covered with dark clouds of despair and defeat.

“Is something wrong?” An Xiulan asked her bestie. She could see a number of emotions floating on Shen Yue’s face ranging from worry, anticipation to worry again. Even she was curious to know the outcome lf the conference now.

“It seems like it, “Shen Yue said. “Something happened inside.”

Mr Jiang is one of the board of directors. He had formed an alliance in the company with other board of directors and shareholders. His main agenda was to counter everything that An Qinyan believes in. He did not shy away from expressing his divergent views and neither did An Qinyan, as the President, tried to stop him as she believed in the concept of constructive criticism.

He was also one of the strong opponents in the office and he also held a significant number of shares. He was fighting for the position of CEO of the American branch. He had been so sure that he would get it for he was one of the old and hard-working employees in the country. Not only this, he owned a significant percentage of share in the company and many shareholders and board of directors were in his favor too.

There had been so many reasons why he was one of the strongest shareholder and board director but today one could see annoyance and anger written clearly on his face.

Who angered him to death today? Or who was going to anger hin to death?

Although Mr Jiang knew that it was hard for An Qinyan to make a decision in one conference, he did not hope that his dreams would be soon shattered by someone else.

Mr Jiang had been planning, plotting and conspiring for this day for a long time but today someone pulled rugged from under his feet and he still was not able to get up from that fall. Whoever threw him on the ground did a number on him.

“You are young and rash, Director Lu, “Mr Jiang sais as he turned to look at Lu Xuan who was standing there with a dark and non-interested look on his face. It was as if nothing affects this young man who did the impossible just a few minutes ago. He would never forget this day when he was fooled badly. One day, he would avenge his lost honor for sure.

“Mr Jiang does not need to tell me what I already know, “Lu Xuan answered coldly. Did he look like someone who had interest and patience in listening to what this old man had to say? Who did not know that these two had always been at loggerheads? It was natural that he would not accept anything said by the other one.

“Your mother might be the President of this company but she doesn’t own the entire company. If you fail her, she will lose everything. In the name of nepotism, she is going to ruin all of us, “Mr Jiang said. His tone was hurting, mean and menacing. It was clear that his judgement was clouded with his personal feelings. He had let Lu Xuan hurt his ego when he made it his mission to defeat Lu Xuan when there was no need to. He continued while saying, “We won’t let this happen. If you think, you can do anything. You are wrong. We won’t let you succeed. We will fight you and your unreasonable mother who has forgotten how to do business.”

Lu Xuan had an urgue to ask who these ‘we’ were but before he could sat something, someone else entered the conversation.

“What did you just say?” A sharp feminine voice said as she stood in front of Lu Xuan with her arms crossed. She was wearing a lemon coloured pantsuit. She crossed her arms in an attitude that said whoever messed with her, she would ruin their everything. Her big doe eyes were filled with fire but she still looked at Mr Jiang with a smile and asked him to repeat whatever the hell he just said. Ahe might look cute and harmless the way she was dressed but one did not dare to raise their voice at her or ask who she was and why she had interupted the conversation. She was boiling with anger and whoever dared to say anything right now, she would burn them all.

Mr Jiang must have woken up on the wrong side of the bed tonight as he was going to face defeat and lose face because of An family again and again. Only if he had an idea about the grave that he dug for himself. Actually, he dug his grave the day, he decided to toh with Lu Xuan over nothing again and again but today he met the wrong Lu twin.

“Excuse me, “Mr Jiang said, looking at a familiar looking yet unfamiliar woman. It appeared as of he had seen this woman somewhere but he could not pinpoint it where. Maybe, she was one the never-ending list of women Lu Xuan roam with.

“You are not excused, Mr, “An Xiulan said with an attitude. “Do you know the consequences of allegations that you just put on President An and Director Lu?”

And did he knew that President An waa her mother and Director Lu her brother and she would be damned if she let anyone point their fingers at them. Who the hell was this man and how dared his utter so much nonsense?

“Do you know I could take legal action against you in the crime of defaming someone without any concrete evidence?” An Xiulan asked him. “If you have a problem with how she works, you should complain about it to whoever takes those complains but who are you to stand in the middle of a company lobby and accuse her of nepotism? Do you have any proof for the same? Can you prove that Director Lu is in the company because of nepotism, not because he deserved to be in this company?”

As if it was not enough, she went to the extent of saying. “Do you know which university Director Lu is an alumni of? Can you get into that university because of nepotism? He did not need this company. The company needs him. He has proved so many times what he can do for this company. Who are you to call him a product of nepotism?”

An Xiulan looked at everyone standing around the man and said, “Someone is openly badmouthing your President and you are happily listening to it?”

Her mother always made sure that her employees were protected but look at these employees. They did not even speak a word in her favour. Seriously, people had no sense of responsibility. They accepts favour without any shame but never thinks that it is important to do their duty.

“You can’t stop me from criticizing the bad decision, “Mr Jiang said. Even if her questions shook him, he was not going to show it just yet.

“Sir with due respect, keep on criticizing but do not forget that there is a big difference between criticizing and bad mouthing, “An Xiulan kindly reminded him. “And what you were doing did not come under the definition of criticism and you know it better. I do not need to explain to you what you were doing.”

“Who are you?” Mr Jiang asked. “How dare you talk to me like this?”

“I can get you thrown out of here, “Mr Jiang said after this. “Shut your mouth or you will not be able to deal with the consequences.”

“You dare?” Lu Xuan said in his menacing tone. Just because he was not saying anything, did these people forget what he was capable of doing?

An Xiulan shivered as she heard his tone. She had never heard him talk like this.
