Chapter 1620: Chapter 1620: In the End, Nothing but a Joke (4)
The tone of Beimu was full of disgust.
At this mont, Beichuan felt that besides despising him, his mother had a love-hate relationship with him.
Another day passed, and news about Beichuan’s dereliction of duty, leading to his resignation as chairman, spread throughout the streets and alleys of Taicheng. Beimu also officially announced that she would temporarily take over the affairs of the Northern Group.
The news left everyone stunned, including Xiao Ji.
Ye Qilan was also a bit surprised. He didn’t expect it would be Beimu who would take over the affairs of the Northern Group. With this turn of events, he couldn’t find a way to target Beichuan.
Beimu was no Beichuan; she was difficult to deal with. Moreover, Beimu had always been kind to him. Once she took over the Northern Group, he couldn’t easily make his move.
The previous plans he had would need to be completely overturned and redone.
At ten in the morning, Beimu ca to Jufeng Group to et Ye Qilan.
“Auntie, please have a seat.” Ye Qilan roughly anticipated that Beimu would co to negotiate with him, so he wasn’t surprised to see her.
Beimu sat across from Ye Qilan and smiled, “No visit to the temple without a reason. Sisi, I will get straight to the point. I’m here today to ask you to forgive Beichuan this once. He has already realized his mistakes and will no longer serve as the chairman of the Northern Group. Also, the cooperation between Northern Group and Hongkang Group will be terminated. I’ve co today to show my stance. The Northern Group will no longer interfere in your personal vendetta with Xiao Ji.”
Ye Qilan didn’t expect Beimu to be so straightforward. If Northern Group and Hongkang Group were no longer allied, there was no need for him to target Northern Group.
However, just as he was advancing his strategy, the piece he encircled chose to escape, which sowhat dampened his spirits.
“Auntie, it was you who forced Beichuan to resign, wasn’t it?” Ye Qilan asked.
“Here’s what happened. At three in the morning, he was drunk out of his mind and suddenly ca ho, begging to save him. You should have seen what a sorry state he was in, like a pile of mud. I had the servants throw him into the swimming pool. After he sobered up, he begged for rcy, saying he was willing to do anything to save the Northern Group. I then set two conditions: for him to remove himself from the center of power and to cut ties with Xiao Ji. He agreed without hesitation to both. If he hadn’t co to his senses, he wouldn’t have agreed to those two conditions. Don’t you think so?”
Beimu’s words took Ye Qilan by surprise.
He thought Beichuan would persist to the bitter end but didn’t expect him to surrender easily. Could it be because he t Su Hongxing and she said sothing to him?
“Did Beichuan ntion Su Hongxing when he was drunk?” Ye Qilan blurted out.
Beimu paused, hesitating on whether to tell the truth. What she had said earlier was all true, but she deliberately omitted the na Su Hongxing to avoid arousing Ye Qilan’s suspicion.
She didn’t expect Ye Qilan would suddenly ask about Su Hongxing.
Seeing Beimu’s hesitation, Ye Qilan imdiately knew the answer: “Auntie, you can speak openly. I just want to know why Beichuan suddenly ca to his senses.”
To show her sincerity, Beimu decided not to conceal the truth anymore, and replied honestly: “Beichuan said that Su Hongxing advised him to stay away from Xiao Ji. He believes Su Hongxing wouldn’t harm him, so he agreed to my terms and promised to cut off all contact with Xiao Ji.”
