Chapter 792 - 785: Defending the Company (Part 4)
Luna only found out about Leng Yichen’s disappearance in the explosion incident in F Country at this moment, looking at Bai Yiran in disbelief.
Bai Yiran was now the most helpless and pitiable person, while earlier she herself had been anything but strong in front of her, crying and unable even to have the courage to sign a surgical consent form.
Reflecting on herself and then looking at Bai Yiran, Luna felt that as an elder, she was seriously lacking, not only failing to help Bai Yiran, but also further burdening her.
Qi Hui received a phone call and whispered something to the person on the other end before standing up, "Since everyone is here, I won’t be in the way anymore, I’ll head back to the company first."
Luna, seeing Qi Hui’s attitude, was about to say something when she noticed Bai Yiran gently shaking her head. Taking a deep breath, she glared at Qi Hui’s departing figure but ultimately said nothing.
At this point, if Qi Hui wanted to leave, let her go. Her presence would only cause discomfort; she wouldn’t help but only add to the chaos.
While Leng Liewei was undergoing surgery, Bai Yiran received a call from Gao Sheng. They had found Leng Yichen’s jacket in the rubble in F Country; his wallet and phone were inside, but he remains missing.
No body had been found, nor any sign of life.
Gao Sheng explained that the explosion was chaotic; many injured were taken to hospitals without identified identities, so there are many awaiting identity verification in hospitals. The high number of casualties means it will take time to confirm identities.
Listening to Gao Sheng, Bai Yiran held her phone in silence, but her heart settled. She believed Leng Yichen was not dead; she had a premonition, she could sense that Leng Yichen was alive.
"Yiran, girl, although in my line of work I shouldn’t support superstitious talk, I still want to say, Leng Yichen is tough; even the heavens wouldn’t dare take him!"
A trace of a smile appeared on Bai Yiran’s pale face, "Yes, he is tough; even the heavens wouldn’t dare take him."
Gao Sheng promised to notify Bai Yiran as soon as there was news, and they ended the call.
The terrorist attack in F Country instantly became nationwide news, not least because Huamei International’s Leng Yichen was on the missing persons list issued by F Country.
Suddenly, the Leng Family was thrust into the public eye, and Huamei International’s stock price fell due to the news of Leng Yichen’s disappearance.
The unfortunate part was that, amid all this turmoil, Leng Liewei was hospitalized due to illness.
Consequently, Huamei International’s shareholders and top management became restless and convened an emergency shareholders’ meeting to discuss the company’s future operations.
Meanwhile, Bai Yiran was still waiting at the hospital when she received a call from Anna.
"What? An emergency shareholders’ meeting?" Bai Yiran’s pupils contracted, confirming Old Shi and Old Lin were starting to act up. "I understand, I’ll head back at once!"
The call was secretly made by Anna to Bai Yiran, who was not a shareholder of the group and thus might not have been notified about such a meeting.
After hanging up, Bai Yiran turned to Luna, about to speak, but Luna spoke first, "You go, I’m here."
"Okay!" Bai Yiran nodded, "Stepmom, I’ll leave Dad to you."
Luna looked at Bai Yiran with firm resolve, "Rest assured! Huamei International is the hard work of Old Leng and Leng Yichen across two generations, we can’t let those malicious people take advantage of the situation! Yiran, you must protect the company!"
Bai Yiran bit her lip. She had to protect the company, but how would she do it?
"Yiran, uncle will go with you." Cheng Gang felt profoundly sorry for his niece, how could such events befall her? What kind of people were those in a large conglomerate’s board? How could a young girl possibly handle them?
