CHAPTER 222

When Bai Renxiang arrived at the meeting room, everyone arrived. They stood up in acknowledgement of her arrival. Only after she took her seat at the head of the table did everyone sit down.

The meeting proceeded. Everyone talked about a thing or two about what they have done the last few days. Chairman Juang nodded his head at most of their progress and lectured some.

Before the end, they print out the payment of the members in the meeting and were presented in the front of their tables.

"Based on all of your hard work, you all have been rewarded," Bai Renxiang said as the men and women looked at the papers in their palms.

"A percentage of five has been added to your salary. It is a little token of appreciation from the company to you all. I hope this will motivate us all to do more for the company to achieve more and to also attain greater heights," she added.

Just as everyone was nodding their head in satisfaction, a loud sound resounded in the meeting room shocking almost everyone except Bai Renxiang and old man Jiang.

All eyes trailed towards the source of the noise only for them to see an enraged Vice President.

"What is the meaning of this nonsense?" Vice President Jiang Bojing asked with a loud voice further confusing everyone in the room. Still, Bai Renxiang's facial expression remained neutral.

"Vice President Jiang, what is wrong with you? This is a meeting room not your living room at your home," chairman Jiang quarried.

"You ask what is wrong with me? Why don't you ask that unworthy person you put on that seat?" Vice President Jiang fired back and pointed at Bai Renxiang.

All eyes averted from Vice President Jiang Bojing to Bai Renxiang who was sitting calmly, watching the display the vice president put on.

"Watch your words, Vice President Jiang," Assistant Charlie warned him.

"Oh, shut it, Assistant Charlie," Jiang Bojing spat out viciously.

"You," he turned to Bai Renxiang. "What is the meaning of this nonsense I am seeing on this stupid sheet of paper?" He asked again as he abruptly stood up from his chair causing it to fall back with a loud bang.

"That 'stupid' sheet of paper holds your life's support, Vice President Jiang. It also unravels your hidden deeds," Bai Renxiang stated clearly and calmly.

"What nonsense? You give everyone their salary alongside a bonus reward while I get a few words stating self-payment?" He said and flung the paper at Bai Renxiang's face.

"JIANG BOJING! Show some respect to your boss. How dare you act rashly?" Old man Jiang beloved.

"What respect? Take a look at what is written on that piece of garbage," he yelled.

Assistant Xia Xinyi picked up the paper that had fallen on the ground beside Bai Renxiang's chair. After reading what was on it, she passes it to Assistant Charlie who passed it to the Chairman.

Old man Jiang read through it and was stunned and confused. He raised his questioning gaze to meet Bai Renxiang's can and collected ones.

"CEO Bai, explain this," he said.

"It is as it is written on that paper. The Vice President does not deserve any payment whatsoever as it turns out that he had already rewarded and paid himself for the past three months," Bai Renxiang explained much to everyone's surprise.

Gasps and side talks could be heard here and there amongst the people in the meeting room. They could hardly believe their ears.

"CEO Bai, please stop the jokes already. You got us there," Mr Quan said and chuckled.

"Do I look like the type to throw jokes in a meeting, Mr Quan? Or do you see me as a clown or a comedian?" Bai Renxiang asked with a straight face and cold eyes.

"I think that is what you are? If not you would not the spouting such nonsense from that little mouth of yours," Vice President Jiang mocked.

"What evidence do you even have to boldly claim something like that?" He asked daringly as he stood up straight and adjusted his suit.

Jiang Bojing was confident that Bai Renxiang did not have any useful information backing up her intuitions.

"Evidence, you say?" Bai Renxiang asked with raised brows. She did not let his mocking or intimidating gaze scare her.

"Yes, evidence. Or do you not have one? If I am innocent, you will have to apologise for slandering my name and you will also have to step down from the position of CEO. This company will not be needing a leader that is as incompetent as you are," he laid a punishment.

GASP

Everyone in the meeting room was stunned by the words of the Vice President. This Vice President Jiang is threatening their boss. Does he not fear the wrath of the chairman? While the witnesses were whispering their thoughts and fear for the Vice President, he was basking in his thoughts.

'There is no how this little lady would be able to prove such claims. Hahaha. I am one step closer to eradicating this old man's pesky relative to power. The power to run Jiang's Corporation will fall on me and my household,' he smiled evils in his head.

"Jiang Bojing, you are going too far. No one gave you the right to give the rules here," Old man Jiang roared.

"And if you are not innocent, Vice President Jiang Bojing?" Bai Renxiang tilted her head to the side, ignoring everyone.

"If I am guilty as you proclaim, I will be suspended for a month," he said haughtily.historical

"Will you take a look at that? Your punishments are uneven," a man from one of the board spoke. He was one of the faithful and loyal members of the board. He was always in support of Chairman Jiang and Bai Renxiang's decisions in the company.

"If my claims are true and you are not innocent, you, Vice President Jiang, will leave the company for good."
