On the other side, the voting in the conference room reached a climax. The number of votes on both sides continued, and a tense atmosphere shrouded the room. Fortunately, except for the three old shareholders who initially bounced their votes, everyone else followed step by step. In the end, Li Sui was only 6% worse than expected.

Although he had done his best, he was still one move short of chess. Li Sui gradually felt a bit of loss in his heart. However, the loss had not reached the top. Fang Miao, who cast the last vote, handed over his note tremblingly: "Li Sui."

As soon as these two words were uttered, everyone including Li Sui was stunned for a moment. Liu Xingtian glanced at him sullenly, Fang Miao smiled shyly, and took a half step back with fists: "I'm sorry, Liu Xingtian. total."

When things had progressed to this point, Li Sui didn't realize what was going on at this dramatic turn of events, but Xu Weilan was the first to react: "We won."

Amid the chatter of the crowd, Li Sui slowly recovered, still puzzled, and asked in a low voice, "Why did he vote for me? Isn't he Liu Xingtian's henchman?"

Xu Weilan shook his head and analyzed for him: "Fang Miao is no one's cronies, he is money's cronies, the whole company has the most pure purpose, and whoever has money will follow whoever has the money, without worrying about the company. There is no shame in the prospect. Liu Xingtian must know what Liu Xingtian was doing behind his back. It is estimated that he originally wanted to rely on President Lu, but President Lu didn't want to deal with him, so he went to Liu Xingtian. Now you get 40% of the money. It's not surprising that the shares will be on your side instead."

There was applause in the conference room, Li Sui stood up, his palms were sweaty, and he glanced at Fang Miao, who looked at him like he was looking at a piece of fat.

Li Sui wandered in the fields between him and Liu Xing for a moment, and looked back. Sure enough, this world is like this. If there is any trouble, it will vassalize you at the first time, and it will often turn its back on you at the first time when the wind direction changes. Liu Xingtian clearly understands this truth and has been shrewd all his life, but he did not expect that one day he will be planted on it.

"Our new chairman is born! Everyone applaud!" Fang Miao began to boo.

This person was also shameless and skinless to a certain level. Other Liu Xingtian's former members all showed a little embarrassment, and even Li Sui felt a little embarrassed like this one.

"Who said this is the chairman," Liu Xingtian interrupted their applause, with blue veins jumping on his forehead, "The Meng family hasn't arrived yet, what are you worried about?"

There was a lot of discussion below, and someone said, "Quick, who can call the Meng family."

Fang Miao was the first to take out his mobile phone, dialed Meng Xinyou, and opened the external voice directly.

"Mr. Fang, what's the matter?" The phone was quickly connected.

"Miss Meng, our shareholders' meeting is almost over. Are you coming or not?"

"I'm stuck in traffic and can't come."

"Traffic stuck?" Liu Xingtian came to understand, glanced at Li Sui, and was furious, and said directly to the phone: "Don't the Meng family have a helicopter? Come here by helicopter, and I'll pay you the fee."

"Yo, it's Mr. Liu, haven't you watched the news, today's air defense exercise, the whole city is banned from flying, you're not killing me."

Liu Xingtian's tone cooled down: "Do you have any opinion on this, Officer Xu?"

Meng Xinyou was obviously displeased: "Mr. Liu, I hope you understand that Dongyan's shareholder is me, and I am the only one who can represent this part of the equity, which concerns the interests of the Meng family. If he wants to support you, it is also me. By default, if I want to make a decision, he can only stand aside, what, are you trying to point fingers at me?"

This was very rude, Li Sui almost wanted to show admiration for this girl in his heart. He had power and power in the family, and the weight of his words was really different. No wonder Lu Shang was always afraid of her.

"Then the shareholders meeting is here..." Fang Miao asked quickly.

"I think I can't make it through today. I abstain from voting. Anyway, 80% of the voting rights are still valid. I have other things on my side. I will hang up first." After that, he hung up the phone without hesitation.

There was silence in the conference room for a few seconds, Xu Weilan did not know when the resolution of the shareholders' meeting was drawn up, and took the opportunity to take the stage and said: "Everyone, Mr. Li Sui currently owns 40% of the shares and voted 14%, a total of 54 %, because Miss Meng abstained from voting, the voting rights accounted for 67.5%, which has exceeded two-thirds, and has the right to decide to change the articles of association.”

Liu Xingtian stood there for a long time, his eyes fixed on Li Sui: "So this is your purpose?"

Li Sui saluted him with burning eyes: "What if?"

There was warm applause in the conference room, Li Sui walked past him and walked onto the stage, his eyes swept over the people with different expressions: "Thank you for your trust in me. From today, I will temporarily represent all of Dongyan's affairs. First of all , I propose to repeal Article 48 of the Articles of Association, and change the nature of the company to a joint-stock company at the end of the year, and strive to be listed within five years."

"Okay, it's good to go public." Fang Miao took the lead in applauding.

The other shareholders looked at each other in dismay, and after a while, they applauded sparsely.

Li Sui had a solid stake in his hands, and Liu Xingtian's people knew that the situation was over. Even if he found Li Sui's fault today, he could hold another shareholders meeting tomorrow. After the resolution was issued, they all signed it.

Liu Xingtian still sat firmly on the chair at the head of the conference table and did not move, but in the current situation, this position seemed rather ironic. Li Sui caught a glimpse of his always upright back, and in the applause, for some reason, he looked a little stooped. .

All the dust settled, he fought with the Lu family for half his life, and the organs were exhausted. Don't talk about him, if Li Sui was himself, he wouldn't be able to figure it out either.

When the decision was presented to him, Liu Xingtian laughed out of nowhere: "I actually lost to you..."

"You didn't lose to me," Li Sui corrected him. "Today's result was built up by Lu Shang over the years. I just picked it up for nothing."

"Are you happy?" Liu Xingtian asked him raising his eyebrows.

Li Sui didn't answer.

"Are you happy that you won Dongyan and lost Lu Shang?" asked again.

Li Sui clenched his hands tightly, and Xu Weilan patted him on the back in a hurry.

However, at this moment, Li Sui's cell phone vibrated. He froze for a moment, then got up and walked to the window. The screen displayed an advertisement text message. His eyes swept away, and his heart trembled involuntarily.

The content was not long, Li Sui shook his hand and opened it, staring at the phrase "unsubscribe, please reply 'Y'" three or four times, and after confirming that he read it correctly, he felt a strong weakness in his legs and almost fell to his knees. .

Xu Weilan was puzzled and came over and asked him nervously, "What? Is there a situation?"

Li Sui shook his head, pursed his lips, tried his best to hide his emotions, turned to Liu Xingtian as usual, and said, "You better sign it earlier, Zhu Xin is useless to me."

His heart had already been given to Lu Shang in his entirety, and he didn't leave any more.

At the end of the whole day's meeting, everyone was exhausted. Li Sui walked out of Dongyan's door and heard abusive and contemptuous voices around him, including his name, but he didn't care. He is irrelevant.

On a snowy day, it got dark early, and the fog filled the air. The dim lights in the distance could be vaguely seen. The cold wind blew the goose feathers and heavy snow, fell on the feet, and quickly melted.

"Mr. Li, please stay." Someone called him from behind.

Li Sui turned his head and saw Fang Miao walked over quickly, with a smile on his face, rubbing his hands and saying, "That... I used to be blind. I apologize to you for the things that upset President Lu before."

Although this man is thick-skinned, he has eyesight. He didn't say he apologized, but said he apologized to Lu Shang. Li Sui was thinking about Lu Shang in his heart, and he had no intention to entangle with him: "If you have anything, just say it."

Fang Miao looked around, pulled him to the corner, and said in a low voice, "I'm here to ask you for one thing, and you know that Liu Xingtian has done a lot of evil. I have become enemies with him, and he is afraid that he will not let me go... "

Li Sui looked into the distance and sighed softly, "If you knew today, why did you do it in the first place?"

Fang Miao couldn't help rubbing his hands: "Yes, you are right, I asked for this by myself, but can you see the face today and save me once."

Li Sui glanced at him, thought about it, and said, "Yes, but there is one condition."

"You say."

"I want you as a witness to identify Liu Xingtian."

"This… "

"Promise or not, you decide for yourself. What I can promise you is that as long as you come forward to identify him, I guarantee that he will sit in prison and never have the chance to harm you again."

Fang Miao heard the words and nodded without thinking: "Okay, I'll come forward."

That night, Xu Weilan took all the evidence collected and went to the police station with Fang Miao. Li Sui waited anxiously and kept walking around outside the door. When they came out, he hurried up and asked, "How is it?"

Xu Weilan: "It has already been commissioned, and the arrest is expected to be approved within three days."

"Three more days?" Li Sui collapsed, "I can't wait for three more days."

Xu Weilan supported Fang Miao, pulled Li Sui into the car, and reassured: "I know you are in a hurry, and I am also in a hurry, but at this juncture, you must not make mistakes, or you will lose all your previous achievements. Just bear with it."

"How can I bear it?" Li Sui pressed his eyebrows, "Lu Shang is struggling on the edge of life and death, but I can't even stay by his side."

Xu Weilan sighed lightly: "If he can survive the operation, he will definitely survive the dangerous period. Dongyan still has a lot of things waiting for you to handle. Shareholders are finally on our side, don’t fall short, and Liu Xingtian must be trying to find a way to hit us back, if he doesn’t go in for a day, you can’t relax for a day.”

Li Sui buried his head deeply in his arms.

Xu Weilan was worried and sent Li Sui home all the way. These days, Li Sui has been avoiding returning to Lu's house intentionally or not, always feeling that Lu Shang is not here, as if something is missing, and home doesn't feel like home anymore. Although Lu Shang gave him the house in his will, Li Sui could guess what Lu Shang was thinking. He thought it was the place where they lived together for seven years. Even if he was gone, he wanted to leave one for Li Sui. Where he belongs, only Li Sui knows that his belonging has never been this house, but the owner of this house.

It's been a few days, the crushed lawn in the yard has been trimmed as before, and the snow on the road has been swept clean. Lushang is not there, but Uncle Yuan's work has never fallen.

Li Sui walked into the room, only two dim wall lamps were turned on in the living room, and the fireplace was still burning with a light crackling sound. The pair of tortoises in the corner scratched the tank for two days, but they were ignored, so they hibernated in their shells.

Everything was terribly quiet, Li Sui slowly sat down on the threshold, watching the snow fall layer after layer in the yard.

I forgot which winter it was. He had a little conflict with Lu Shang. He was sitting outside the house cutting a bamboo frame. When Lu Shang came back from out of town and saw him sitting at the door, he was obviously sullen, but he couldn't bear it. He was cold and pushed the door to let him in.

Looking back on some memories, it was like yesterday, as if he stretched out his hand and could grab the slightly cold hand.

Time flies, so many years in the blink of an eye, Lu Shang once said to him with guilt that if he hadn't met in his childhood, maybe he could have a normal childhood and have a better life, but Li Sui thought that he would never again There are better, he's got the best in the world.

God is fair, and all the hardships you have endured will one day be repaid to you in a different way, letting you know that all this is not in vain. And at the end of his suffering, when he turned around, who stood there was the gentle and gentle man who showed him a faint smile.

The snow bent a tree in the yard, making an unbearable squeak, and a gust of wind blew, and finally hung precariously, and fell to the ground with a "pop".

Li Sui pulled back his thoughts from the memory, stared at it for a long time, got up and walked over, picking up the branch. The size and shape are all very suitable, and the wood texture is good. Li Sui dusted off the snow on it, took a small knife, and sat on the threshold to start cutting.

The fishing rod holder made for Lu Shang a few years ago was washed into the lake by the water, and he has not had time to make a new one for him. Lu Shang's hand is always weak because of illness, and the fishing rod will be worn out after a long time. It hurts, and a support is needed to help him rest.

Li Sui carefully shaved off the bark a little bit, and the thorny branches were also polished and rounded. He worked very hard and made plans. When Lu Shang was finished, he would leave the company to others to take care of. , he will take Lu Shang to travel around, see all the great rivers and mountains in the world, and taste all kinds of food in the world.

It snowed all night, and he just sat on the threshold all night. When the first ray of light appeared on the horizon, he raised his head and heard a tremor from the phone beside him.

Li Sui was stunned, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground with a bang.

"He made it through." Dr. Liang couldn't even restrain his excitement, and sent him five words directly.

Li Sui stared at it for a long time, until he almost didn't recognize the five Chinese characters. Then he suddenly got up and ran into the snow in the yard, ran wildly for several laps in one breath, and then threw himself into the snow. Bury your face in.

The ice-cold snow water froze his whole body, Li Sui panted violently, turned over with a smile, and lay on the ground with his back to the sky, tears all over his face.

It's not a dream, it's real.

"Lu Shang, thank you, thank you..." He covered his eyes and cried so ugly.
