QT: Grace To Grass Counterattack System

Chapter 213 Little Mandron Soldier 36

?The conference hall was full to brim with news hungry reporters chatting with each other to pass time. The minute Jin Yusheng walked into the hall, all of them stirred in their seats and turned their focus to the podium.

Jin Yusheng calmly looked from one end of the hall be to the other before tapping on his mic. "Good day. The Jin Conglomerate would like to announce my stepping down as the CEO and the emergence of the now former COO, Han Weiyu, as the new CEO of the Conglomerate. Thank you." And then he stood up and walked out of the hall.

'...'

The reporters were left to stare at Jin Yusheng's retreating figure in shock. They all looked down at their Ipads containing the questions they had painstakingly prepared. What just happened?

The Second Marshal was backstage and almost blew a fuse when he saw that Jin Yusheng did not even try to debunk the main issue on ground. He rushed over to intercept him but ended up realizing that the young man had taken a different exit and left the building entirely!

Jin Yusheng entered his hover car and lit a cigarette. With all the threats of boycotting his company, the simplest method would be to leave the main seat for someone else in order to satisfy and retain his consumers so he had contacted his Board and did just that.

The average person regarded the CEO position as the highest ranking in a company which was objectively true but not completely accurate. The CEO held the highest position in the operational structure of a company which meant they oversaw all business operations, made decisions and were responsible for the success of the company but there was another position which was technically 'higher' than that of a CEO.

Which was the Chairman of the Board of Directors. The CEO of a company was obligated to seek approval from the BOD of the company. The Chairman also had the power to appoint, evalutate or fire a CEO.

With all that being said, Jin Yusheng's case was a bit special because when he made the Jin Conglomerate public, he kept 60% shares to himself. So even though the Jin Conglomerate Board Of Directors had a Chairman, it was technically impossible for him, Jin Yusheng, to be checkmated by the Chairman.

With the current state of things, all Jin Yusheng did was take on the position of Chairman. Even if the other members of the Board were dissatisfied with this, they could do nothing about it as his shares far surpassed their number of shares combined.

To the General public, he had fallen from grace but the truth of the matter was that he'd only moved from the public eye to a position behind the scenes. In the end, all decisions in his Conglomerate was still made by him and his now CEO, Han Weiyu, was nothing more than a figurehead CEO. He, in fact, still did his real job as a COO.

The hover car soon arrived at the Jin estate. There were tons of reporters surrounding the gate but some Security detail had already been prepared beforehand and were effectively keeping the reporters at bay. Jin Yusheng got into the estate with no hassle.

Inside, Jin Qi had her arms crossed with an inconvenienced frown on her face. She was about to open her mouth when Jin Yusheng simply eyed her to shut up and walked past her.

When he arrived in his room, he looked down at his bracelet and clicked on a few codes. Immediately the request was accepted, he simply said, "Results."

The person on the other end cleared their throat. "The other party hadn't taken adequate precautions to hide their identity. We had traced the video to the Yang mansion."

Jin Yusheng frowned as the person continued, "The account appears to belong to one of your secretaries in the Jin Conglomerate, Miss Yang Xiang."

Jin Yusheng lowered his head with a cold chuckle. "She doesn't have the resources to have made that video. She must be working with someone."

"Should we bring her in for 'interrogation'?"

Jin Yusheng flexed his wrists. "Why would I waste my time on such a nobody?" If he quietly took care of Yang Xiang behind the scenes, that would give people -who had no idea- the impression that he was easy to mess with.

He needed to make an example of her. Even if the method was less satisfactory to him. He tsked. "Simply send the evidence to my lawyers to file a law suit. Make sure to watch her closely, she would definitely contact her accomplice."

"Yes boss." The person replied and then the hologram flicked shut.

Jin Yusheng was just about to lower his hand when a communication request came through. It was Yang Teng. He let out a soft breath before accepting the request.

"Mr... Presi... Jin Yushe...." Yang Teng's voice trailed at the end. His face was bloodless, his eyes were a little puffy from crying and-

Jin Yusheng frowned. "Who hit you?"

Yang Teng shook his head. "It's nothing." And then he gulped nervously and burst into another fit of tears. "I'm so sorry~"

Jin Yusheng felt a little uneasy seeing the man cry. He sighed. "Where are you?"

"First Hospital." Yang Teng replied softly.

"I'll send someone to take you somewhere."

Two hours later, Jin Yusheng met up with Yang Teng in one of his remote properties located a few miles away from the Capital city.

Yang Teng stood up from the sofa immediately. "Hey."

Jin Yusheng walked up to the other male and softly carressed the bruised part of his face. "Colonel Yang?"

Yang Teng nodded with a dry smile.

"Do you know how that video got out?" Jin Yusheng asked after a moment of silence.

Yang Teng stiffened. Jin Yusheng didn't think that he did it, did he? His heart filled with worry. "I don't know." And then he quickly added, "I have nothing to do with it either."

Jin Yusheng nodded. "I know. Yang Xiang did it."

Yang Teng's eyes widened. It couldn't be.. Yang Xiang had also been surprised at the hospital. She might be a little obsessive over Jin Yusheng but she would never harm him that way. There was no way she had been pretending... right? His heart froze over. Why was everything going wrong with his family?! Tears filled his eyes once more.

Jin Yusheng used his thumb to wipe the underside of Yang Teng's eyes. He might not be in love with the young man but that didn't mean he did not feel anything towards him. Yang Teng's problem was his 'indifference' and weak acceptance of any situation that he felt did not remotely affect him.

That horrible characteristic had led him to grow up in self delusion and in a precarious bubble of 'family' that his mind had created in the Yang home.

It was nothing a constant 'talking to' wouldn't fix. Jin Yusheng sighed. He had no idea why he was even bothering. He patted Yang Teng's head. "Don't think about it. Just stay here until the heat dies down. Provisions have already been made."

Yang Teng nodded. "Thank you." And then he wet his lips with his tongue. "W- What about Yang Xiang?"

Jin Yusheng shrugged. "She would naturally bear the consequences of her actions." He held up a finger the minute Yang Teng opened his mouth. "Before you open your mouth to reason with me on her behalf... Don't. Because then I'd only do worse."

Yang Teng swallowed down his words. What was Jin Yusheng going to do to Yang Xiang? Now he was both angry at Yang Xiang and scared for her.

---------------------------------------

Two Hours later, another piece of news made it onto the ranks of trending news,

#JUST IN: Now Former CEO Of The Jin Conglomerate, Jin Yusheng, Files Law Suit Against Yang Family's Yang Xiang For Non-consensual Release Of Explicit Video.

Director Hong saw this particular news and tsked in disappointment. That Yang Xiang was really useless wasn't she? How exactly had she allowed herself to get caught so easily? He sighed and clicked on a string of contact codes, "Post the video."

"Yes boss." Came the swift reply.

The video in question was just to show his sincerity. He knew it was only a matter of time before that idiot woman blew his cover too. He could send someone to finish her off but he had been involved in the underground long enough to know that she was already being watched.

In fact, he wasn't exactly scared of Jin Yusheng. It was impossible for the youngster to deal with him without incurring heavy damages himself. What he was wary of was the fact that Jin Yusheng was psychopathic enough to go ahead and try to deal with him. The man would not bat an eyelid at dealing 1000% damage to the enemy whilst receiving 999% damage himself!

Director Hong tsked again and sent out a communication request to Jin Yusheng. He was not about to take all that unnecessary damage over a disposable plaything that he'd already had his fun of.

Jin Yusheng's bored face appeared on the other end. "Director Hong."

Director Hong cleared his throat. "Jin Yusheng."

Negotiations were made and in another two hours, three more pieces of news made their way onto the ranks.

# UPDATE: Former CEO Of The Jin Conglomerate Modifies Law Suit Against Yang Family Yang Xiang. Charges Are Now; Stalking, Unlawful Break In To Private Property And Non-consensual 'Recording' And Release Of Explicit Video.

#FINANCE DAILY; Jin Yusheng Acquires 10% Shares Of Director Hong's Multi-Million Credits XinFeng Real Estate Company.

#ANOTHER SEX SCANDAL! Video Featuring Yang Family's Yang Xiang And Unknown Man In Extreme Sex Positions! *Disclaimer: NSFW video attached at the end*

The Federation Network was on fire once more. The finance news was naturally neglected and pushed down the ranks in favour of the more juicier news.

On the other hand, Yang Xiang tried to make a run for it but was caught right in the Spaceship dock by the Fed police and dragged away.

The day finally came to an end with Yang Zhi, Yang Liqin and Yang Xiang in the custody of the Fed police, Yang Liu in the First Hospital with brain damage and Yang Teng moaning beneath Jin Yusheng on the remote property.

-----------------------

The next day, the Ding family began an intense search for Yang Xue. After one week of trying to contact Yang Xue without success and very little progress in their search, Xia Yueyu finally lost it.

"Set up a press conference! I'm going to inform the entire Federation about Yang Xue's ability to absorb the magnetic energy!"
