Chapter 433 - 433 Zecheng’s Awakening and Promotion
After Huo Xiaoran entered Huang Yushu’s rented apartment, he did not sit down immediately. Instead, he sized up the simple and cramped room with a trace of pity in his eyes.
Then, he turned around and said to Li Zecheng, “I’m here today on my wife’s orders to repay you for saving her life. Li Zecheng, from tomorrow onwards, I’ll leave the Angel Group’s business department to you. In addition, you can establish the Li Kang Group under your name and use the Angel Group’s connections to strengthen the Li Kang Group. After you are stable, you can leave the Angel Group.”
Li Zecheng was dumbfounded. This condition was simply unique.
The Angel Group was the largest pharmaceutical group in the country. If he could use the resources of the Angel Group, it would be like adding wings to a tiger.
Huo Xiaoran’s grateful heart also touched Li Zecheng.
He immediately swore, “Uncle, since you trust me so much, then I, Li Zecheng, swear to the heavens that I will never do anything to damage the foundation of the Angel Group in this life.”
Huo Xiaoran said confidently, “With me around, you’re not enough to compete with me.”
Li Zecheng smiled brightly. “Yes, yes, yes. Uncle is a genius. I overestimated myself.”
Huang Yushu sighed. “Xiaoran, you and Qiao An taught us another lesson. Karma exists in this world. It pays to be kind. If only I had understood this earlier.”
Huo Xiaoran said, “Third Sister-in-law, it’s not too late to comprehend it now. As long as you uphold your faith, you will definitely be able to rest in peace in your old age. Compared to my third brother, your fortune is greater than his.”
With that, Huo Xiaoran left decisively.
After Li Zecheng sent Huo Xiaoran off and closed the door, he cried bitterly.
Huang Yushu was puzzled and asked him curiously, “Zecheng, your uncle helped you sincerely. You should be happy. Why are you crying instead?”
Li Zecheng suddenly slapped himself a few times fiercely. Then, he hugged Huang Yushu’s leg and cried bitterly. “Mom, the more Uncle and Qiao An help me like this, the more guilty I feel. If I hadn’t cheated them of their marriage and separated them, Qiao An’s fate might have changed. She wouldn’t have encountered those terrifying bandits. Those bandits are all outlaws and will haunt her for the rest of their lives. From then on, she won’t be able to live in peace.”
“It’s all because of me that she will live in fear for the rest of her life.”
Huang Yushu comforted Li Zecheng with reddened eyes. “Zecheng, we were all wrong in the past. But we’re lucky that Qiao An forgave us. You still have a long time to make up to her in this life.”
Li Zecheng nodded. “Yes.”
The next day, Li Zecheng appeared downstairs of the Angel Corporation in a well-tailored suit.
The once high-spirited youth had now become an elegant middle-aged man. He was mature and his eyes were filled with vicissitudes.
He was a little nervous. After all, with his bad reputation, he would definitely face countless obstacles in an outstanding company with strong credibility.
But after so much suffering, his heart was strong enough to face all the storms. This strength was brought to him by Qiao An.
He was inspired by how a weak woman like Qiao An could deal with the bandits so calmly. Hence, he composed himself and walked towards the elevator.
When he arrived at the conference room where the company’s upper echelons were meeting, he pretended to be relaxed and pushed open the door.
The various leaders of the company were stunned when they saw Li Zecheng.
Li Zecheng walked to the position of the director of the business department, picked up his name tag, and placed it upright on the table.
At this moment, a shareholder of the company protested.
“CEO Huo, it’s very inappropriate for you to accept Li Zecheng as the business director. Li Zecheng’s reputation is very bad in the industry. No one is willing to do business with him in private.”
Huo Xiaoran smiled and said, “Li Zecheng was originally the CEO of the Li Kang Group. When he joined the Angel Business Department, it could be considered a demotion. The Angel Group didn’t lose out. If we consider Li Zecheng’s private life, it’s indeed a little worrying. However, people will change. I’m willing to give Li Zecheng a chance to shock the world.”
Li Zecheng stood up and humbly made an introduction. “I understand everyone’s concerns. I’m here to make a pledge to you. With the Angel Group’s business department in my hands. I guarantee that I will improve this month’s results by 10%. If I fail to do so, I’m willing to withdraw from the position of director.”
Only then did everyone stop. They considered that it was almost impossible for a newcomer to be able to increase the income by 10%. A month later, he would leave on his own. There was no need to waste their collective breaths objecting to him.
After the meeting, the others filed out.
Huo Xiaoran sat on the CEO’s chair and looked at Li Zecheng leisurely. “Increase the revenue by 10%. Zecheng, can you do it?”
Li Zecheng raised the proposal. “If it was last month, I can’t guarantee it. I just happened to discover that the Angel Group’s business decreased abnormally last month. For some reason, many businesses are stagnating. This month, I can push them forward.”
Huo Xiaoran leaned forward. “This gap is my recruitment gift to you. I hope you won’t disappoint me.”
Li Zecheng was dumbfounded.
“Uncle, you’re really something.”
Huo Xiaoran stood up and walked up to him. He patted his shoulder and said, “The Li Kang Corporation was once my mother’s hard work. I hope you can strengthen it.”
Then he left freely.
Li Zecheng sat in the chair and fell into a short daze. “I think the Li Kang Corporation should change its name.”
After all, it was the joint effort of Grandpa and Xiaoran’s mother.
Li Zecheng was extremely busy this month. He did not have time to eat at all, much less take care of his mother.
On the first day, Huang Yushu ate the leftovers from the morning.
The next day, she was hungry at noon. She only ate two meals a day.
On the third day, her stomach felt a little uncomfortable. But she saw that her son and daughter were busy, and didn’t want to disturb them.
On the fourth day, she rolled around at home in pain. Helpless, she called 120.
When the doctor asked the family to sign, Huang Yushu fell into a dilemma.
She did not want to delay her son and daughter’s careers.
She begged the doctor, “Doctor, my children have been especially busy recently. I don’t want them to know that I’m sick. I don’t want them to worry about me.”
“I’ll sign it.” Suddenly, a light voice sounded.
