Chapter 231: 227. I Want to Divorce You (Please subscribe, please vote for monthly tickets!)

Many people did not understand the meaning behind Wan Haifang's words; she was saying that Tian Yaohui intended to pass Yaotian Pharmaceutical down to his illegitimate son, Tian Jiaming, rather than to Tian Ya.

Tian Yaohui, of course, understood Wan Haifang's words. "We can discuss our affairs later. If you want Yaya to take over Yaotian Pharmaceutical, it's not impossible, so why not discuss it with me? Yaya is my daughter after all, I..."

"Heh, Tian Yaohui, stop being such a hypocrite. Do you think I don't understand your intentions? If you truly had that in mind, you wouldn't have agreed so readily when I proposed that Yaya start her own company," Wan Haifang said mockingly.

After saying this, she couldn't be bothered to pay attention to Tian Yaohui anymore, but she dropped another bomb from her lips.

"Tian Yaohui, I have already filed for divorce in court. Don't be absent when the time comes. Oh, and don't hide the matter of that son of yours anymore. It's been so many years; it's time to give him a proper status. After all, not having a father on the household registration isn't a good thing," Wan Haifang said.

Now, the people present were truly unsettled. If it could be considered a personal grievance before—since although they didn't understand the situation, they could still see something—

But now it was different. Once Wan Haifang truly filed for divorce, and they had also heard from Wan Haifang's words just now that Tian Yaohui seemed to have an illegitimate son.

Once this news was exposed, the stock price of their Yaotian Pharmaceutical, which had just stabilized, would plummet again.

This was a matter concerning their own interests.

"Ms. Wan, it would be better not to make such a big scene out of this."

"Yes, yes, yes, Ms. Wan, please calm your anger."

Zhang Ran stood on the side like an irrelevant person, quietly eating his melon.

This was the second thing Zhang Ran had told Wan Haifang to do when they were at the cafe.

Wan Haifang looked at these people, the mockery on her face becoming apparent, but she ignored them and just looked quietly at Tian Yaohui.

At this moment, Tian Yaohui could no longer remain calm; he knew trouble had arrived.

Sure enough, at this time, Zhang Ran stood out again. "Well, logically speaking, I currently hold 15% of the shares, and Tian Yaohui and Wan Haifang together hold 28%. If we really calculate it this way, I seem to have become the largest shareholder?"

Before Tian Yaohui could speak, the others began to whisper to one another. It seemed that according to what Zhang Ran said, it really was the case; after all, Wan Haifang and Tian Yaohui were no longer of one mind.

"Therefore, I propose to re-elect a new Chairman. I believe Tian Yaohui is no longer suitable to serve as the company's Chairman," Zhang Ran said with a smile, as if he were talking about a trivial matter.

At this time, Tian Yaohui also quickly calmed down. Seeing the restless appearance of those below, he knew he could not let the situation continue to develop.

"Zhang Ran, you are wrong about that. Even if Wan Haifang and I each hold half now, that is 14%, but I have also acquired nearly 20% of the shares on the stock market. In total, I have at least 34% of the shares. I am still the largest shareholder!" Tian Yaohui said in a deep voice.

He knew Zhang Ran had come with ill intent, but he hadn't expected him to be this fierce. If he hadn't been prepared, the company might have changed hands directly!

Hearing Tian Yaohui's words, the others seemed somewhat surprised, but they were finally a little more settled.

Zhang Ran smiled: "So what? Even so, I am still the second-largest shareholder, and I can still propose to re-elect the Chairman. Now I propose that Feng Hui serve as the new Chairman. Who is in favor? Who is opposed?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Feng Hui subconsciously straightened his back.

"I am in favor!" Wan Haifang raised her hand immediately.

Feng Lian still had 1%, so naturally, he also raised his hand.

As for the others, they looked at each other in dismay. Things were developing a bit too fast. In fact, this could also be considered a board meeting; basically, the shareholders of Yaotian Pharmaceutical were all board members.

Of course, this was not official; it was just a choice Zhang Ran was giving everyone.

Tian Yaohui took a deep breath and looked at everyone, saying: "I believe you have all seen my, Tian Yaohui's, ability over these years. Do you trust me, or do you trust this outsider? Does he understand the pharmaceutical industry?"

Tian Yaohui knew that he could not let the others' resolve waver at this moment, otherwise, once Zhang Ran truly seized control of the situation, it would be a devastating disaster for him.

As long as Zhang Ran succeeded in seizing power, then Tian Yaohui's 34% of shares would be as good as nothing; Zhang Ran had plenty of ways to ruin him.

Moreover, Tian Yaohui also believed that as long as this step was completed, Zhang Ran would have remaining methods, so he could not let this scene happen.

When Tian Yaohui said this, many people showed expressions of shame. Indeed, they had truly been a bit wavering just now.

There was no help for it; who told Zhang Ran to turn the situation into this in such a short time, directly starting to threaten the position of Chairman? This made everyone subconsciously wary of Zhang Ran.

But if one thought about it carefully, was Zhang Ran's ability really stronger than Tian Yaohui's?

They didn't know what abilities Zhang Ran had, but they knew Tian Yaohui's ability. After so many years, they were still willing to choose to trust Tian Yaohui.

"I oppose."

"I also oppose!"

People spoke up one after another, which made Tian Yaohui's expression relax immediately. A smile reappeared on his face, and he looked at Zhang Ran with some smugness.

You, Zhang Ran, prepared so much, but in the end, didn't you still fall short of success?

Tian Yaohui believed that as long as he withstood this attack from Zhang Ran, he would be confident in winning this time.

Judging from his past understanding of Zhang Ran, Zhang Ran's first wave of offensive was usually the most violent, which would directly crush the enemy, or at the very least, make the other party lose the vast majority of their things.

Now, although he, Tian Yaohui, had also lost a lot, he had blocked it!

That was enough!

However, Zhang Ran's expression did not change in the slightest. Could he not have anticipated these situations?

Zhang Ran cast his gaze on the only two people who hadn't spoken, and the others also looked at them.

"Two old brothers, we are old acquaintances, so I won't say any extra words. You should know what kind of character I, Zhang Ran, have. How about this, I can now acquire your shares at the same price I gave Brother Feng, as a greeting gift," Zhang Ran said with a smile.

These two looked at each other and said nothing. They were from the same generation as Feng Lian and had also experienced the events of that year, so they still had some understanding of Zhang Ran's methods.

But at this moment, they didn't know what choice they should make.

And as it stood now, even if they supported Zhang Ran, it didn't seem to have a decisive effect, so why was Zhang Ran still staring at them?

"Two brothers, let me say one thing. We are all old; if we can avoid getting involved, let's not get involved. Take that money as retirement funds, and don't regret it later." At this time, Feng Lian spoke up.

"Brother Feng, you..." One of them had just started to speak when he was interrupted by Feng Lian. "Don't ask me why either. I am advising you now as an old friend. As for how you choose, that has nothing to do with me."

After saying this, Feng Lian closed his eyes to rest again, as if he were really just reminding them out of friendship.

However, at this time, the look Tian Yaohui gave him became exceptionally fierce. What this old guy Feng Lian was saying now was not just on the surface; he was striking at the confidence others had in him, Tian Yaohui!

Sure enough, when Feng Lian's voice fell, the expressions of some people, which had been somewhat firm, became unnatural again.
