Chapter 266 Internal Power Struggle

In the meeting room of the family business, the atmosphere was so solemn that it seemed as if water could drip out. Representatives from different factions sat on both sides of the long table, and when their eyes met, it seemed as if invisible sparks were splashing in the air.

The eldest brother, Ruan Zhengxiong, sat at the head of the group, frowning and looking at everyone seriously. His fingers tapped the table lightly, and each tap seemed to hit everyone's heart. "Everyone, the family business is facing a major decision now. We must unite to keep the business going." His voice was steady and powerful, but he couldn't hide his inner anxiety.

Second Aunt Lin Yumei twisted her body, raised the corners of her mouth with a hint of disdain: "Brother, you can't say that. We have all contributed to the development of this enterprise. Why do you have the final say?" As she spoke, she fiddled with the sparkling diamond ring on her hand, her eyes revealing greed and ambition, and she shook her hair from time to time.

Third uncle Ruan Zhenghua sat aside, silent. His fingers kept rubbing the corners of his clothes, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, he was thinking about his own little tricks, and his legs were shaking unconsciously.

The eldest sister Ruan Xiaomin coughed lightly and said, "Second Aunt, we are all doing this for the good of the family. We can't just think about our own interests." Her eyes were firm, but she could not hide her nervousness. She unconsciously clasped her hands in front of her chest and leaned forward slightly.

At this time, Ruan Xiaofeng couldn't help but say: "Second Aunt, we are a family. We should work together to make the company better instead of arguing with each other." He frowned and clenched his fists.

Second Aunt rolled her eyes at him and put her hands on her hips: "What do you know, kid? Get out of here!"

Ruan Xiaofeng stubbornly stiffened his neck: "Why don't I understand? It's no good for anyone to continue fighting like this!"

Eldest brother Ruan Zhengxiong: "Xiaofeng is right, we can't waste time on internal conflicts." He shook his head helplessly.

Second Aunt snorted, ignored her and turned her head to look away.

In the following days, everyone in the family was very busy. Second Aunt dressed up gorgeously every day, tried to win over people, and spoke ill of others behind their backs from time to time.

One day, Ruan Xiaofeng met his second aunt in the garden.

When Second Aunt saw him, a smile immediately spread across her face, and she said kindly, "Xiaofeng, come here, Second Aunt wants to talk to you." As she spoke, she reached out to pull Ruan Xiaofeng, with a calculating look in her eyes.

Ruan Xiaofeng's heart tightened, knowing that something bad was going to happen, but he still walked over.

Second Aunt took his hand and said softly, "Xiaofeng, look how good Second Aunt is to you. If you can say a few good words for Second Aunt in front of your eldest brother, you will benefit from it in the future." As she spoke, she blinked and moved closer to Ruan Xiaofeng.

Ruan Xiaofeng smiled awkwardly and quickly took a step back: "Second Aunt, this is not good. I am still a child and don't understand these things."

Second Aunt's face changed, she crossed her arms over her chest and said, "How can you be so stupid, kid!" After that, she walked away angrily, her high heels making a clacking sound.

Uncle San locked himself in his room all day, studying various plans, and he almost pulled out a lot of his hair.

The eldest sister led her team and worked overtime day and night to prepare her own plan.

Ruan Xiaofeng was not idle either. He secretly observed everyone's actions and worried about the future of his family.

One day, Ruan Xiaofeng met his third uncle.

Ruan Xiaofeng asked: "Uncle San, how are you preparing?"

Uncle San had a worried look on his face: "Xiaofeng, Uncle San is under a lot of pressure. I don't know if I can make it this time." As he said that, he patted his waist with his hand.

Ruan Xiaofeng encouraged: "Uncle San, don't be too nervous, just do your best."

A few days later, the family held a meeting to present the plan.

Second Aunt was the first to go on stage. She was wearing a gorgeous dress and started to introduce her plan in a high-handed manner. However, she started to go off topic and talked about some unrealistic ideas, which made the people in the audience shake their heads.

Ruan Xiaofeng couldn't help but mutter in a low voice: "Second Aunt's plan is too unreliable." As he spoke, he shrugged helplessly.

When Uncle San went on stage, he was so nervous that his legs were shaking and he spoke stutteringly. Although the plan had some highlights, it was not perfect as a whole.

The eldest sister came on stage last. She was full of confidence and explained her plan in a clear and organized manner, winning applause from everyone.

The eldest brother sat in the audience with a serious expression, weighing things in his mind.

Just when everyone thought that the eldest sister's plan would win, the eldest brother stood up and said: "After careful consideration, I decided to combine everyone's plans, learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, and work together for the development of the family business."

Everyone was stunned at first, and then nodded in agreement.

This power struggle finally ended in a relatively harmonious way under the wisdom of the eldest brother.
