The person asked, "Why are you going out?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "I'm just answering the phone, you see, it's still ringing."
The person said, "It's just answering the phone, you can do it here."
Ling Zhenfei said, "I have a headache and I'm used to going out to take calls."
By saying this, Ling Zhenfei wanted to quickly bring the matter out in the open. Now, whether it's Kudo Nanting's side or the opponent's side, everyone is waiting for sothing, so neither side has made a move.
Ling Zhenfei couldn't waste all his ti on this, so he wanted to push things forward quickly, and therefore chose this approach.
Ling Zhenfei had been talking with Kudo Nanting for too long, making it hard for people not to suspect sothing.
They suspected Ling Zhenfei must have learned sothing, or was even helping Kudo Nanting.
Needing to step out to take a call was definitely suspicious, possibly to assist Kudo Nanting in making arrangents, so the people would not let Ling Zhenfei leave.
Ling Zhenfei said to Kudo Nanting, "Miss Kudo, what do your people an by this? Am I now imprisoned by you?"
By saying this, Kudo Nanting, being smart, instantly understood that Ling Zhenfei wanted to reveal the matter.
Kudo Nanting ca to the door and said, "What's the situation? Mr. Ling is my friend. Why are you stopping him?"
The person was one of those who had co with Kudo Nanting, and obviously, this person was from the opposing side.
The person said to Kudo Nanting, "This person cannot leave now."
Kudo Nanting angrily said, "Why can't he leave?"
The person said, "Because now is not the right ti for him to leave."
Kudo Nanting angrily said, "I said he can leave, so he can leave."
Unexpectedly, the person laughed and said, "Not only can he not leave, but you can't leave either."
Even though Kudo Nanting already knew, she still pretended to be extrely shocked.
"What do you an? Are you trying to rebel?"
Unexpectedly, before that person spoke, soone from behind spoke up.
"He doesn't have the ability to rebel, and what we're doing isn't rebellion, we're just letting you take a good rest."
Ling Zhenfei and Kudo Nanting both looked back and were imdiately surprised, because the speaker was Kudo Yoshimasa.
At this mont, Kudo Nanting was genuinely surprised, "Kudo Yoshimasa, it's you. So you're the one who arranged all of this."
Kudo Yoshimasa laughed, "That's right, I arranged this. How's that?"
Ling Zhenfei was also very surprised. Originally, Kudo Yoshimasa looked like the big steward of the Kudo Family, managing everything orderly, but who would have expected such a situation to arise.
Initially, he considered Kudo Yoshimasa to be a good guy and told him about Kudo Nanting's poisoning at the first opportunity.
Back then he noticed that most of the Kudo Family mbers were looking at Kudo Yoshimasa, indicating that Kudo Yoshimasa was not ordinary.
But who would have known that the one trying to overthrow Kudo Nanting was actually Kudo Yoshimasa?
At this ti, everyone could see that sothing was amiss, and all the Kudo Family mbers stood up.
Among the Kudo Family attendees, there were those loyal to Kudo Yoshimasa, as well as those loyal to Kudo Nanting.
Quite a few people stood up, "What's going on, what's going on?"
This kind of situation was clear at a glance, and suddenly those who were just dining together split into two factions.
Kudo Jiro stood on Kudo Nanting's side and angrily said to Kudo Yoshimasa, "Kudo Yoshimasa, it turns out you're the one trying to kill Nanting, the culprit."
Kudo Yoshimasa looked at everyone and said, "Kudo Jiro, you're too dull. If you continue to follow Kudo Nanting, you won't even know how you'll die."
Kudo Jiro, being a straightforward person, at this mont angrily confronted Kudo Yoshimasa, "You shaless scoundrel, what are you planning?"
Kudo Yoshimasa said to the people on Kudo Nanting's side, "It's nothing, Kudo Nanting surely knows what I am planning. To be honest with you, we elders are very dissatisfied with the current state of the family."
Kudo Nanting said, "Since I ca on board, the Kudo Corporation has developed rapidly. What is there to be dissatisfied about?"
Kudo Yoshimasa laughed and said, "Does the developnt of the Kudo Corporation have much to do with us? Look at your current investnts. Do you think we elders can gain any benefits from them?"
Kudo Nanting said, "Since the family's developnt, haven't your benefits increased? Shouldn't they be better than before?"
Kudo Yoshimasa said, "After you assud power, you promoted many young people, causing many of us to be assigned elsewhere. Now you don't even see that all the profitable jobs are occupied by your people."
Kudo Nanting laughed sowhat helplessly, "It's really interesting. Why should those positions be for those who lack capability to profit? The people I arranged are naturally those I trust.
Moreover, these people haven't betrayed my trust, and the monthly revenue has greatly increased since we reduced the opportunities for profit-taking.
Your previous behavior wasn't about profit-taking, it was outright corruption. It's already good enough that I didn't hold you accountable, yet you use this as an excuse."
Kudo Yoshimasa said, "So you make us very dissatisfied. And besides, how can a youngster like you hold such a position? How do you expect other families to see us?"
Kudo Nanting said, "I don't know what other families would say, but between families, the comparison is about who earns money. I'm leading the family to make money, making other families envious."
Kudo Yoshimasa said, "Other matters are trivial, but there's one thing that the entire Kudo Family cannot overlook, and that is you being a woman. You'll have to find a man to marry.
If you find a man, then will this position, including the entire Kudo Corporation, still bear the Kudo na?"
These words resonated with everyone. In such family-run enterprises, no female has been in charge, mainly due to this reason.
Kudo Nanting said, "That's ddling too much, isn't it? I'm rely holding a position, and even if I get married, that doesn't an I'd take the Kudo Corporation away.
These are just your excuses. Stop wasting ti and tell what you want."
Kudo Yoshimasa said, "It's very simple, you step down from power, relinquish your position, and we'll naturally elect a new president for the corporation."
Kudo Nanting laughed and said, "What if I'm unwilling?"
Kudo Yoshimasa said, "It's not a matter of willingness. Let put it this way, if you step down, you'll live well with no worries about food or clothing.
As a young woman, you'd surely enjoy life. If you're unwilling, then perhaps you won't be able to leave this room today."
Kudo Nanting said, "So you're threatening , aren't you?"
