Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1501: Chapter 1304: Please Enter the Trap_3

At the moment, Li Haofeng and the others naturally noticed that there were issues with this inquiry and accountability meeting.

However, seeing the expressions of Bai Xiaosheng and Xiahou Qi, they knew both of them were definitely involved.

Due to the trust in Bai Xiaosheng and Xiahou Qi, even Li Haofeng felt there was no need to bother with how much ”truth” there was in it.

After all, the elder and the younger clearly grasped the ”scale” of the situation.

Aside from Li Haofeng and the other four, Shang Dadong, Zhao Xinyu, and Han Richeng on the stage, the remaining three’s only concern was their feelings.

The restructuring hit them hard, and they were unwilling, but they had no choice.

They were even more reluctant to accept the current system, fearing the current situation. They worried about facing danger if someone revisited old accounts or bribed the Affairs Officer to falsely accuse.

Nonetheless, it seemed that the false accusation claims were unlikely to hold...

In the end.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Luo Chengxin’s voice was exceedingly hoarse, leaving him speechless.

The fifty Affairs Officers present, especially those who spoke up, were incredibly excited, feeling they had upheld justice.

Although Han Richeng admitted to some issues, they weren’t as severe as Luo Chengxin claimed.

Bai Xiaosheng spoke again, calming everyone down.

Then, Bai Xiaosheng solemnly looked around the hall, slowly saying, ”I believe everyone already has their judgment. Anyway, I have witnessed quite a spectacle!”

Bai Xiaosheng’s sharp gaze landed on Luo Chengxin, ”Affairs Officer Luo, is there anything else you want to say?”

At this point, Luo Chengxin was almost unable to speak, his spirit utterly drained, and he helplessly shook his head.

”Very well then, you may go rest. Await headquarters’ decision; you must know the consequences of falsely accusing a Senior Affairs Officer!”

Bai Xiaosheng waved his hand, ”You may leave now.”

Luo Chengxin, unable to argue further, grabbed his belongings in a state of relief, not daring to meet anyone’s eyes, and hurriedly left as if fleeing.

Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu watched this in frustration.

”Is it that hard to be a good person?”

In his heart, Shang Dadong felt exceedingly indignant, letting out a silent lament, almost akin to the cry of a cuckoo.

Bai Xiaosheng glanced around the hall and continued, ”This time, with fifty Affairs Officers making the decision, I believe the outcome is just!”

Upon hearing this from the new president, the fifty Affairs Officers straightened up immediately, their eyes full of spirit.

They savored the value of their involvement!

The honor and reputation of a Senior Affairs Officer were in their hands!

This jury system, with members not fixed, ensured they couldn’t participate every time or be bribed in advance, which assured them of this system’s credibility.

”Here, I announce that the accusations against Han Richeng are not established!” Bai Xiaosheng looked at Han Richeng, delivering this verdict.

Instantly, applause thundered.

Below the stage, the fifty Affairs Officers clapped enthusiastically, not to congratulate Han Richeng, but to celebrate a fair new system.

Even Xiahou Qi, Li Haofeng, and others smiled and applauded.

Even Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu clapped reluctantly.

After the applause subsided, Bai Xiaosheng gestured for quiet and continued, ”However, there is no doubt that Senior Affairs Officer Han Richeng indeed engaged in some misconduct, and he himself admitted it. I admire his honesty.”

”Nonetheless, rewards and punishments must be clear. As a disciplinary measure, I declare that from now on, Senior Affairs Officer Han Richeng will not receive a pay raise for two years!”

Bai Xiaosheng announced the punishment for Han Richeng.

The Affairs Officers immediately held their breath, their eyes focused intently on Bai Xiaosheng.

This young new president indeed rewards and punishes clearly!

Considering the mistakes Han Richeng admitted, such a punishment is not excessive.

Han Richeng’s admission is seen as a courageous act, preserving his reputation.

”Senior Affairs Officer Han Richeng, do you accept this?” Bai Xiaosheng asked Han Richeng.

Bai Xiaosheng’s voice was calm, yet full of immense authority.

Han Richeng knew that Bai Xiaosheng was punishing him for his past mistakes. In light of his errors, maintaining his reputation and position made Han Richeng deeply satisfied, feeling immense gratitude towards Bai Xiaosheng.

”Mr. Bai, I accept this punishment!” Han Richeng said with utmost sincerity, ”I, Han Richeng, regardless of the reasons, was wrong in the past and must be punished! But your punishment, I can’t accept! I voluntarily request a five-year period without a pay raise!”

Han Richeng remained the same Han Richeng, adept at cooperating with leadership and greatly self-aware.

In doing so, he earned the respect of the Affairs Officers present.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled, seemingly very pleased with Han Richeng’s attitude.

In the seat for Senior Affairs Officers, Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu couldn’t help but roll their eyes.

Even they felt somewhat disdainful...

This hearing seemed to be drawing to a close.

Although it did not establish a successful example of an Affairs Officer holding a Senior Affairs Officer accountable, it showed the Senior Affairs Officers present that the possibility of being framed was almost zero, offering them a small comfort.

Just as Bai Xiaosheng was about to announce the adjournment, Lin Weiwei hurriedly walked onto the stage, whispered in Bai Xiaosheng’s ear.

Bai Xiaosheng raised an eyebrow, seemingly having heard something interesting, then nodded and whispered a few words in return.

As everyone watched, Lin Weiwei left.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled at everyone, ”I originally thought we would adjourn now, but unexpectedly, there’s another round of evidence presentation!”

The Affairs Officers present, already excited, had their eyes light up upon hearing Bai Xiaosheng say this.

”Another round?”

”Great! I just felt it wasn’t enough!”

”Indeed, I’m starting to like this system!”

Everyone even began whispering excitedly.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled at everyone, his gaze shifting to the Senior Affairs Officers’ seats, landing on Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu.

The two, seeing Bai Xiaosheng looking at them, were initially stunned but then understood something, their eyes widened.

Could someone be holding them accountable?

”This sudden round of evidence presentation and accountability is targeting two Senior Affairs Officers! Shang Dadong, Zhao Xinyu! Yes, it’s you two!”

As Bai Xiaosheng finished speaking, Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu’s faces changed drastically.

All eyes in the room were focused on the two of them.

”Interestingly, this time it’s not one group.” Bai Xiaosheng smiled, holding up two fingers, ”But two groups!”

Two groups! If it were one group, it would be enough, but it’s two!

Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu were stunned!

What is this?!

”Good things” come in pairs!

The more they thought about it, the more shocked and indignant they became.

”Then, you two, please be prepared! We’ll take advantage of this venue and opportunity and start in five minutes!” Bai Xiaosheng said calmly.

They were only given five minutes; five minutes wasn’t nearly enough for preparation!

Taking advantage of the venue and opportunity? What do they take us for?

With their expressions changing in shock, Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu’s faces filled with anger, their expressions converging into one sentence—

Who’s trying to harm me!

As Han Richeng walked back to the Senior Affairs Officers’ seat, upon hearing it was two groups of accusers, he was initially stunned, then realized, and finally smiled.

Passing by Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu, he muttered to himself, ”I see, I wasn’t the sacrificial pawn for the system after all!”

”Since you both set such a good example, don’t blame others for inviting you into the pit!”
