Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 2030: Chapter 1572: Resolution in the ”Blackboard House” (Part 2)

The temptations and choices faced by the young are too many, and a momentary misstep is really not uncommon.

”If he simply made a momentary misstep and committed some wrongs, what should I do then?”

Jiang Kuo truly felt lost, even at a loss for what to do.

For someone of his status and position, such confusion was unprecedented...

Wen Yan asked everyone present for their thoughts, and some had begun to speak one after another.

”According to reports from our investigators, Mr. Bai Xiaosheng had conflicts with Mr. Landvo, the head of the South America Region, and privately visited and investigated some enterprises in the South America Region, which is already considered to be an overstep!”

The first person who spoke pulled Jiang Kuo back to reality.

This matter shocked Jiang Kuo, even making him feel horrified.

Bai Xiaosheng privately intervened in South America Region’s affairs and even had conflicts with Landvo!

This, this...

No wonder Landvo would turn a blind eye...

Wait!

Could it be that the real person targeting Bai Xiaosheng from behind is Landvo himself!

Jiang Kuo suddenly thought of this, and his whole body tensed up.

If this is really the case, then it’s too terrible!

Jiang Kuo did not know much about Landvo, but he knew he was a very tricky existence, with deep connections at headquarters, and in the South America Region he was akin to a local emperor. Even Jiang Kuo did not want to provoke such a person.

The second person also spoke, ”According to the information we have, multiple cities and departments in South America have issued accusations against Bai Xiaosheng, all with witnesses and evidence! Even if so many things breaking out at the same time seems suspicious, would anyone dare to create something out of nothing and challenge the competence of all authoritative figures in the departments! Of course, I’m not saying everything is true or false, but personally, I believe that at least some of Mr. Bai Xiaosheng’s problems should... exist!”

The third person followed immediately, ”The most pressing issue now is the public opinion issue, rather than investigating which matters are true or false, the public won’t give us much time to investigate. I think we can first impose limited actions against Mr. Bai Xiaosheng, let him cooperate with the local investigation, suspend his work, which is also to figure out the situation! If it’s eventually determined that Mr. Bai Xiaosheng is wronged, we can return his innocence later!”

...

The executives of the supervisory department continued one by one, even those who had doubts about the incident itself, advocated to first curb the situation.

Even if it means somewhat ”aggrieving” Bai Xiaosheng a little.

If one is upright, they fear no shadow, if Bai Xiaosheng really has no issue, treat it as a wake-up call. If he really has no issue, he could later be ”cleared of wrongdoing” with even some compensation from headquarters. Believe that he would understand.

In any case, everyone believed that Bai Xiaosheng should not be allowed to affect the Group’s reputation!

The influence brought by such a senior executive is serious, and once it affects the stock market, the evaporated assets are not a small amount!

Seeing that all the executives present advocated sacrificing a pawn to save a king, Jiang Kuo’s face turned somewhat pale.

Originally he wanted to speak up for Bai Xiaosheng, but now he was deeply hesitant.

How, should he, Jiang Kuo, sing a different tune against all the executives of the supervisory department and disregard the group’s interests?

Such a heavy hat is not a joke!

Jiang Kuo considered he could not bear it.

With his mind in chaos, Jiang Kuo didn’t hear a single word from the ensuing statements of those supervisory department executives.

”If I speak up to support Bai Xiaosheng, I’ll get into big trouble myself!” Jiang Kuo thought to himself, ”But if not even I support Bai Xiaosheng, he’ll truly have no backing, truly have to bear everything, even if he is innocent...”

Which path should I take...

Jiang Kuo had never felt that decision-making was so tough.

Several times, he resolved to ”abandon” Bai Xiaosheng, convincing himself it was for the bigger picture, for the group, for the Greater China Region, for himself...

Yet several times, he silently negated that thought...

”Mr. Jiang, what is your opinion?” At the moment when Jiang Kuo was agonizing, a gentle voice inquired.

Momentarily, Jiang Kuo didn’t regain his senses.

It wasn’t until that voice asked again for him.

Everyone turned to look at Jiang Kuo, and only then did Jiang Kuo come to his senses.

The person speaking was, of course, Wen Yan.

”Ah, I! Me?!” Jiang Kuo met each pair of sharp eyes and saw the only gentle gaze at the host’s seat.

That gaze was gentle, yet it made one feel even more pressure.

Wen Yan, the head of the supervisory department, was seeking his opinion.

He, Jiang Kuo, what should he do?

Jiang Kuo felt his throat constrict.

The entire situation was unclear, Bai Xiaosheng’s issues remained undetermined, even if not all, a few problems represented issues nonetheless; if his own stance was wrong, he could later be caught out by what was said; the group of people from the supervisory department could very likely keep entangling with him...

Jiang Kuo had always been very adept at self-preservation, never letting himself fall into a dilemma.

But this time, he was like falling into a quagmire, wanting to extricate himself, yet feeling increasingly trapped.

Or rather, he inherently didn’t wish to ”extricate” himself from the situation.

Wen Yan calmly looked at Jiang Kuo, waiting for his opinion, it seemed that as long as Jiang Kuo said something ambiguous, like for the group, leaving it to the supervisory department’s decision, Wen Yan could immediately snap his finger and issue a disposal plan for Bai Xiaosheng, reporting it to the vice chairman.

”I...” Pressured by the burden from Wen Yan, Jiang Kuo finally spoke. But one ”I”, and Jiang Kuo was startled by his own voice, feeling the duck-like voice didn’t sound like his own voice.

”I, Jiang Kuo think, I... the group, this reputation, this...”
