Chapter 353: 349. Being Pointed at and Cursed (Please subscribe, monthly tickets!)

Zhao Lifeng was determined this time to use this opportunity to centralize the company's decision-making power; in fact, he had essentially already laid his cards on the table.

"If you don't agree, then we'll all be finished together!"

This was Zhao Lifeng's current mindset.

At this moment, everyone looked at Zhang Ran and Zhao Lifeng, and by now, how could they not understand what had happened?

"Director Zhao, isn't what you're doing a bit suspicious of biting the hand that feeds you?" someone said with a sinister tone.

This remark resonated with many people; at this moment, Zhao Lifeng was joining forces with Zhang Ran to force a coup.

Before, they were still thinking about whether they could squeeze more benefits out of Zhang Ran, but now the situation had suddenly reversed.

Not only had the municipal government started to support Zhang Ran, but even Zhao Lifeng's attitude was this tough.

"Zhao Lifeng, have you ever thought about the company by doing this? Where do you place the company's interests in your pursuit of power? You are selling out the company." A man of about thirty with a distinguished appearance stood up and roared.

After saying this, he pointed at Zhao Lifeng and continued to curse, "You damn well have no shame at all for the sake of profit. If this matter gets out, have you thought about how the outside world will view us?"

At this moment, Zhang Ran spoke up, "Brother, don't put it so harshly. The decision-making power is in your hands now. Whether you agree or not..."

Before Zhang Ran could finish, he saw this man actually turn around, point at him, and curse, "What the hell are you? Huh? Others might be afraid of you, but I'm not. If you've got the guts, come and mess with me!

This is our company's internal affair right now, what the hell does it have to do with you? Don't act all high and mighty. In my eyes, you're nothing. If you've got the guts, kill me right now!"

Zhang Ran was genuinely stunned on the spot. It had been many years; ever since he rose to prominence, he had rarely been pointed at and cursed like this.

Even back when he was kidnapped, the people involved were still relatively polite, as they were after money, after all, and didn't go too far.

Before Zhang Ran could speak, Meng Mingxuan, who was nearby, grabbed the fruit platter and threw it over, while simultaneously climbing onto the table with one leg, clearly intending to rush over and beat him up.

Zhang Ran reached out to stop him and said to the man, "Xiang Lianshun?"

"That's right, it's me, so what? Want to find trouble with me? I'm waiting for you." Xiang Lianshun looked at him with a face full of contempt.

Zhao Lifeng was anxious and opened his mouth to say, "Mr. Zhang, this isn't..."

At this moment, he understood Xiang Lianshun's intentions; cursing Zhang Ran was secondary—he wanted to drive Zhang Ran away.

As long as Zhang Ran stepped out of this door today, the cooperation would be considered finished, and at most, they would just return to how things were before.

Although Zhao Lifeng didn't know what Zhang Ran's mood was like right now, he knew that an ordinary person couldn't really endure such grievances, let alone someone like Zhang Ran.

Zhao Lifeng wanted to say something; at the very least, he couldn't let Zhang Ran leave, otherwise, there would be no room for turning things around.

Zhang Ran's face didn't show any signs of anger, and a trace of a smile even appeared at the corners of his mouth, "Xiang Lianshun, son-in-law of the Nekrasov Family in Russia."

"You're still smiling like that after being cursed at? You're really damn pathetic! That's right, I am from Russia, so what? If you've got the guts, go to Russia and find trouble with me; I'll make sure you don't come back." Xiang Lianshun cursed angrily.

Xiang Lianshun's arrogance was extremely high at this moment; on one hand, it was due to his own personality, and on the other, it was because he knew that if no one stood up now, it was hard to say what would happen next.

He was only a son-in-law, not a son, and serving as a director at Fengli Group was the greatest benefit his wife had secured for him.

Once the power here was compromised, he would have nothing, as the shares of Fengli Group weren't his anyway.

Was he supposed to just take that measly fixed salary every year?

What a joke!

So he stood up!

He had to stand up; there was no other way. That Wen Jing from Galaxy Capital looked tough, but he had been scared stiff by Zhang Ran's intimidation.

And as for the others, Xiang Lianshun knew what they were worried about.

Although the exposure of the Zhang Ran System had brought some trouble to Zhang Ran, it had also brought some fame.

At the very least, these people didn't dare to act out recklessly when facing Zhang Ran now, and they had to consider Zhang Ran's intentions more carefully.

Therefore, he was the only one who could step forward.

At the same time, Xiang Lianshun really didn't like Zhang Ran, so he cursed directly without any hesitation.

As for his hooligan-like demeanor, no one had ever said Xiang Lianshun was a good person before; he had been half a street thug, but he was lucky enough to woo the daughter of that family while in Russia, and he soared to success!

It would have been fine under normal circumstances, as he had developed some refinement over the years, but at this moment, he had completely let himself go. Of course, his main goal was still to anger Zhang Ran into leaving.

At this moment, Zhang Ran could no longer smile; his expression turned cold, "I'll give you one chance to take back what you just said. Slap yourself once, and I'll pretend nothing ever happened."

"Who the hell do you think you are? Huh? I'm so scared, screw you, ptooey." As Xiang Lianshun said this, he even spat in Zhang Ran's direction.

At this point, Zhang Ran didn't say anything more; he had seen through Xiang Lianshun's purpose from the start, as it was a bit too obvious.

So he didn't take it to heart. Although he had been cursed at a few times, it was just some petty business tactics, and there was no need to be too angry.

After all, Zhang Ran had already pushed them to the edge of a cliff, so it was normal to be cursed at a couple of times.

But later, Xiang Lianshun seemed to get into the rhythm of cursing, and profanities kept pouring out, which completely infuriated Zhang Ran.

He just looked at Xiang Lianshun coldly without speaking, lowered his head, and took out his phone. If Liu Lu saw this scene, she would probably kindly warn Xiang Lianshun that whenever her father-in-law took out his phone at a time like this, it was never a good thing.

"Look at that, even a coward like this wants to swallow us up? You tell me, if we get swallowed up by someone like this, our company will probably be finished." At this moment, seeing Zhang Ran's demeanor, Xiang Lianshun became even more unscrupulous in his speech.

He really wasn't afraid of any retaliation from Zhang Ran; just as he had said, his roots were in Russia, not in Huaxia.

In Huaxia, Xiang Lianshun had to admit one thing: the public security was truly excellent. No matter what, the most Zhang Ran would dare to do was find someone to beat him up, and he could endure that much. As for taking his life?

Xiang Lianshun believed Zhang Ran wouldn't dare!

So he was now including the future beating he might take in his current outburst, cursing with such unbridled satisfaction!
