Chapter 11
The situation in the office had completely shifted. From the moment Huang Yuming entered, it was clear that things were not as they seemed. The executives had anticipated one outcome, but the reality was far more surprising. Huang Yuming, the revered CEO, had walked in not as a man asserting dominance, but as one deferential to Jiang Ning, Lin Yuzhen’s husband.
The room fell into stunned silence as Huang Yuming, who was known for his ruthless business tactics, displayed humility toward Jiang Ning. His earlier arrogance evaporated in the presence of Lin Yuzhen’s husband, confirming what no one had expected: this was not a typical business transaction.
Huang Yuming, normally a powerful figure, had been reduced to a nervous wreck, willing to please and accommodate Jiang Ning’s quiet authority. He had bowed to Jiang Ning’s instructions, signing the contract without a second glance, and even had the humility to ask Lin Yuzhen to take full control of the project. The respect he showed Lin Yuzhen and her husband only deepened the mystery.
As Huang Yuming left, his demeanor reverted to the businessman everyone knew — assertive, even imposing. However, the message he left behind was clear: Lin Yuzhen was to be the sole leader of this project, and any attempt to undermine her would lead to the termination of the deal. His words hung heavily in the air.
“Idiots like this one here,” he pointed directly at the director who had previously disrespected Lin Yuzhen, “I think it’s better if the Lins don’t keep him anymore.”
The weight of those words hit everyone in the room. The director who had mocked Lin Yuzhen stood frozen, his face pale as he realized that Huang Yuming’s actions had not been random. The power dynamics had shifted, and Lin Yuzhen, along with her mysterious husband, was now in control.
Lin Qiang, despite his earlier actions to discredit Lin Yuzhen, stood there with his jaw clenched. His earlier smugness had vanished, replaced by a realization that the tide had turned in favor of Lin Yuzhen and her silent but formidable support system. The executives exchanged looks, unsure how to process the new reality.
Lin Yuzhen, now holding the signed contract, was left to navigate the aftermath of what had just transpired. Jiang Ning’s presence, though quiet and unassuming, had altered the course of this meeting, securing Lin Yuzhen’s position and commanding the respect of even the most powerful figures in Donghai.
This wasn’t just a business deal; it was a statement of power, of alliances that no one had seen coming. The game had changed, and Lin Yuzhen was at the center of it all.
