Chapter 500: Why?

Even though she was in trouble herself, Yan Ershen didn't forget to dig a hole for Yan Qingxue, smearing her image in front of Yan Laoyezi.

Xu Tian had been watching this farce coldly from the sidelines. Only now did he walk slowly in front of everyone and say to Yan Laoyezi: "Grandfather, originally I, an outsider, shouldn't interrupt, but Ershen's words just now were indeed a bit inappropriate."

"Before, Sister Qing Xue had repeatedly begged you to resolve it privately, but Ershu and Ershen didn't agree. It was they who insisted on laying things out on the table and making Sister Qing Xue give an explanation in front of the reporters. Sister Qing Xue had no choice but to produce evidence to prove her innocence. How can this be her fault?"

"In other words, Ershu and Ershen knew that today was the company's annual meeting. Why did they insist on blowing things up on such an important occasion? Didn't they think about the impact it would have on the company?"

Xu Tian's words were like an invisible slap on Yan Ershen's face.

Seeing Yan Laoyezi's face becoming increasingly ugly, Yan Ershen glared at Xu Tian with hatred: "Since you know you are an outsider, don't talk. When is it your turn to interrupt in our Yan family's affairs?"

"He is the eldest's godson and also a member of the Yan family. Why can't he speak?" Yan Laoyezi scolded in a low voice, "Don't let me hear anyone say Xiao Tian is an outsider again. Do you hear me?"

After scolding Yan Ershen, Yan Laoyezi turned to look at Yan Jinbai: "Jinbai, you have disappointed me too much this time!"

Yan Jinbai's face turned pale instantly, and he tried to defend himself: "Dad..."

"As the CEO of the Yan Group, not only did you not realize that there was a problem with the character of employees in important departments of the company, but you also didn't know how to stop the losses after such a thing happened."

"A dispute that could have been resolved privately was blown up to an unmanageable point for selfish desires. Do you think this is the performance a qualified leader should have?"

Yan Laoyezi was extremely disappointed with Yan Jinbai.

"As a member of the Yan family, the family prospers and suffers together, but you didn't treat Qing Xue and the others as family at all. Publicly and privately, I think your handling method this time lacks the professional quality a CEO should have, and you are not even as sensible as that girl Qing Xue."

Yan Jinbai lowered his head, racking his brains to think of reasons to defend himself, but he didn't speak for a long time. He knew that the old man was really angry this time, and the more he said, the more mistakes he would make.

Yan Hongyu, standing beside him, hurriedly said: "Grandfather, it's my fault. This project was originally my responsibility. It was me who made a rash conclusion before investigating clearly. Father didn't know about it in advance."

Yan Laoyezi looked at Yan Hongyu expressionlessly and said coldly: "Hongyu, you are indeed at fault. As the Vice President of Giant Star Media, you have caused irreparable damage to the company's reputation. Reflect on yourself during this period, and temporarily hand over the work in your hands to someone capable in the company to manage!"

Hearing that her son was going to be suspended, Yan Ershen couldn't care about anything else and shouted at Yan Laoyezi: "Dad, you are too biased. This is not Hongyu's fault at all. Why do you want to punish him! And the punishment of suspension is too heavy. Isn't this clearly letting people from other families see his joke!"

"Also, now that Hongyu is about to get engaged to the daughter of the Xu family, if he is suspended at this time, what if it causes dissatisfaction from the Xu family, thinking that Hongyu is not valued in the Yan family, and they want to break off the engagement? What should we do then?"

"Is the punishment heavy?" Yan Laoyezi snorted coldly, "Who said before that even members of the Yan family cannot engage in favoritism and must handle things impartially? And who said that in order to maintain the reputation of the group, we must give the media an explanation?"

"Hongyu's project had problems, so he should take full responsibility. It should have been punished like this originally. We cannot give him special privileges just because Hongyu is my grandson!"

Yan Hongyu's hanging hands clenched quietly, and a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, but his tone remained calm and sincere: "Mom, this matter is my fault. It is right for Grandfather not to be biased. I am willing to accept all punishments."

At this time, Yan Qingxue walked down from the stage and came to Yan Laoyezi and Yan Laotai, her eyes red as she said: "Grandfather, Grandmother, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, the company's annual meeting wouldn't have become like this..."

"Qing Xue, you have been wronged."

Seeing Yan Qingxue's aggrieved appearance with red eyes, Yan Laotai's heart softened, and she hurriedly pulled her hand and pulled Yan Qingxue to her side.

"This matter is not your fault. I know you didn't want to blow things up."

At the beginning, Yan Qingxue repeatedly begged to resolve it privately and didn't want to blow things up. Yan Laoyezi and Yan Laotai both knew this. They also roughly understood the cause and effect of the whole thing, and they also knew who had bad intentions.

Yan Laoyezi's gaze softened a bit as he looked at Yan Qingxue: "Although the company you partnered with friends is not large in scale, it has gained popularity in just a few months. I have also talked with several old friends, and they are all optimistic about the development of this company. How about this, Qing Xue, if you can rely on your own efforts to get your company on the right track, I can consider letting you return to the Yan Group."

Yan Qingxue didn't expect Yan Laoyezi to say this, and was stunned on the spot, not reacting for a long time.

It was Xu Tian who patted her imperceptibly behind her back, and Yan Qingxue then hurriedly agreed: "Grandfather, I will definitely not let you down."

The faces of Yan Ershen and Yan Hongyu were already ugly to the extreme.

Yan Laoyezi, who had already made up his mind to drive Yan Jinsong's family out of the house, had actually changed his mind. He was actually considering letting Yan Qingxue return to the Yan Group.

Why?

The Yan family's industry had long belonged to their second branch. Now why should they let this girl Yan Qingxue come back to share a piece of the pie?

And now that the old man had forgiven Yan Qingxue and allowed her the opportunity to return to the Yan Group, would he forgive Yan Jinsong in a while?

Yan Ershen couldn't watch the family property that belonged to her fall into the hands of the eldest's family.

"Dad, how can Qing Xue return to the company? Have you forgotten how their family..."

Before Yan Ershen could finish speaking, Xu Tian interrupted her.

"Grandfather is the head of the family. He has his own reasons for whatever decision he makes. Ershen, are you questioning Grandfather's decision, thinking he is unfair? Or do you think that because Grandfather doesn't go to the company often now, he has no decision-making power?"

"No... I didn't mean that!" Yan Ershen was shocked and hurriedly defended herself, "Xu Tian, don't sow discord here. How could I question the old man?"

Damn it, their original plan was to make Yan Laoyezi completely disappointed in Yan Qingxue, so that Yan Qingxue would never have a chance to return to the Yan family, but they didn't expect that the scheming girl Yan Qingxue actually had a backup plan, causing not only Yan Hongyu to be suspended, but also making the old man dissatisfied with Yan Jinbai.
