She picked up the phone, hesitating for a moment as she looked at Ye Yunfeng's number before finally dialing it.
"What's the matter?"
The call was answered quickly.
Ye Yunfeng's cold voice came through, causing An Nuan's newfound courage to waver.
His tone was so harsh; he must be holding a grudge against her. Calling him now felt unwise. But then she thought of her nearly empty wallet and straightened her back.
What had she done wrong? He had set her up first; she was merely retaliating in a small way.
An Nuan encouraged herself internally.
On the other end, in a large conference room, the monthly general meeting was underway. The room was filled with high-ranking executives from the Ye Family's business.
Since Ye Yunfeng took over the Ye Family, their annual profits had doubled, and they were on a consistent upward trend each year.
The employees admired this decisive Ye Shao immensely.
They had originally thought that it would be difficult for Ye Corporation to grow any further. However, after Ye Yunfeng's rise to power, he implemented drastic changes. Many older members opposed this at first, believing that since the Ye Family was already established, stable development would not yield significant profits, even though it remained one of the top companies in C City.
Unexpectedly, those dissenting voices vanished overnight, and Ye San Shao proved through his actions that his path was correct. Because of this, Old Master Ye fully delegated authority to Ye Yunfeng, and no one dared to voice opposition again.
However, the usually disciplined and meticulous leader, who demanded everyone to turn off their phones during meetings and would directly replace department heads if reports were unsatisfactory, surprisingly answered a call during the meeting today.
At that moment, as he picked up the phone, the coldness in his eyes seemed to fade away, startling everyone present.
Who could make the fearsome Ye San Shao show such an expression?
In the spacious conference room, it was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. All eyes were intently focused on the man at the end of the long conference table, seated in the CEO Chair.
It was already a miracle that he answered a call in the meeting and let go of his usual icy demeanor. To everyone's astonishment, this man, who was impervious to any disturbance—even if the sky were to fall—actually stood up and announced a ten-minute break before walking out of the conference room with his phone.
Oh my! Is it going to rain red from the sky?
A group of people was left speechless in shock.
As soon as Ye Yunfeng stepped out, the conference room erupted into a flurry of chatter. Everyone exchanged glances, their expressions speaking volumes.
“Could it be Miss Chu calling? I heard that the Ye Family and Chu Family are engaged.”
“I don’t think so. Miss Chu used to come to the company and never got to meet Ye Shao. How could she suddenly change his demeanor?”
“True, but it might be another woman?”
“If that’s the case, it would be chaos! Who would dare provoke that young lady from the Chu Family? Only someone looking for trouble would do that.”
“……”
The executives of the company rarely gathered for gossip. After all, it was about Ye Yunfeng; any slight stir would capture their attention.
As for the subject of their discussion, he was currently in the stairwell, holding the phone and listening to the silence on the other end. A smile gradually crept onto his lips, adding a touch of warmth to his otherwise serious face.
“If you don’t speak, I’m hanging up.”
“Wait, wait a minute.”
