    Chapter 67: The Delicious Little Rabbit

    Jiang Huizhou had just taken advantage of Shen Zhixue, and now he was in a particularly delightful mood. He ignored Ji Yuan's muttering, instead propping his chin on his hand with a reminiscent smile.

    If he once saw Shen Zhixue as merely a deceitful and sly little rabbit, he now began to think that this rabbit might be... quite tasty.

    Maybe it was the pheromones talking, but every time he faced the little rabbit who was always distracted and putting on a facade, Shen Zhixue became surprisingly docile whenever Jiang Huizhou teased him on purpose.

    "Ah..." Jiang Huizhou sighed softly.

    The little rabbit was so tender and enticing. Keeping him close to toy with at leisure seemed like a fine idea.

    At least for now, Shen Zhixue didn't seem to pose any threat to him. In fact, in certain matters, Shen Zhixue seemed to lean toward him.

    The old fox's ears perked up momentarily before quickly folding back. He turned to Ji Yuan, who was still muttering beside him, and said, "Alright, you can go now."

    Ji Yuan had no option but to comply and left to find Shen Zhixue.

    Shen Zhixue meandered through the company, engaging a few employees in conversation, and swiftly grasped the entertainment company's background.

    Originally, this entertainment company was part of the Wan family's assets, but it was later handed over to Yexue by Wan Chenghan, the family's black sheep.

    Yexue was adept at creating drama and stirring up trouble in the entertainment industry, but in business matters, she was as clueless as a naive flower.

    Thus, in less than two years of her tenure, she was effectively sidelined. She was relegated to merely collecting annual dividends, with no voice in the company's internal decisions.

    Now, the real control of the entertainment company lay in the hands of two top executives.

    Shen Zhixue arched an eyebrow and was on the verge of turning back when he spotted Ji Yuan approaching.

    "Madam," Ji Yuan said, approaching with a lowered gaze. "The young master sent me. Rest assured, from now on, I'll do everything in my power to assist you!"

    Shen Zhixue scrutinized him briefly before offering a cryptic smile. "Good."

    Ji Yuan paused, looking at Shen Zhixue's face, and vaguely felt that something was off.

    If Mr. Jiang was an old fox, then their madam was certainly a wily rabbit.

    Shen Zhixue gave Ji Yuan a pat on the shoulder and gestured grandly. "Round up all the departments and bring them to the conference room. I—correction, the CEO—will be holding a shareholders' meeting!"

    Ji Yuan blinked. "Huh?"

    Hold on! The ink on your contract signature isn't even dry yet!

    "What do you mean 'huh'?" Shen Zhixue frowned. "Get moving. And arrange for someone to escort Mr. Jiang back. His legs aren't in the best condition, so he shouldn't be roaming about."

    Ji Yuan paused briefly before responding slowly, "...Understood."

    Soon, most of the company's top brass had gathered in the conference room.

    Shen Zhixue sat in the chief seat, legs crossed, scrolling through files on his tablet. These were the dossiers of the two vice presidents who wielded the actual power in the company, procured earlier by Ji Yuan at his request.

    One, surnamed Wan, was a top-tier talent dispatched by the Wan family. His efforts were the reason the company remained solvent and profitable year after year.

    The other vice president had secured his position through ties with Yexue. Yet, he was merciless and shrewd, behaving arrogantly and intimidating staff. Except for Vice President Wan, hardly anyone dared to challenge him.

    After perusing the profiles, Shen Zhixue glanced up and surveyed the room. "Why is Vice President Ye absent?"

    "Vice President Ye said he's very busy with work and doesn't have time to attend this... formalistic meeting," a quiet-looking female omega spoke up. "Vice President Ye said it doesn't matter whether you come or not. He'll handle the company's affairs, and you can just collect your dividends at the end of the year, just like Young Master Ye."

    The meaning of these words was already crystal clear to Shen Zhixue.

    No matter who acquired the company or who its president was, he was the real decision-maker!

    Shen Zhixue sneered, "Call him over here."

    The secretary hesitated, "President Shen, this..."

    Shen Zhixue slammed the folder on the table, "What, can't you call him?"

    The secretary sighed, "Alright."

    Everyone exchanged glances, murmuring among themselves. Clearly, these seasoned veterans weren’t intimidated by a young omega like Shen Zhixue.

    "This must be the new boss flexing his muscles. In a moment, this pretty omega will be in tears. Daring to provoke Vice President Ye? He’s in for a world of trouble!"

    "Everyone knows Vice President Ye is the real power behind Fengyue Entertainment. There was still someone from the Wan family who could challenge him, but now that person is about to be transferred back to the Wan family headquarters. Once Vice President Wan is gone, no one will be able to stand up to Vice President Ye..."

    "With Vice President Ye in charge, Fengyue won’t last long before going bankrupt. We’d better start looking for new jobs..."

    "Quiet, Vice President Ye is here!"

    The chatter died down as a tall, burly middle-aged man appeared at the door. Even in a suit, his imposing figure couldn’t hide his thuggish air.

    Shen Zhixue sat calmly in the president’s chair, his gaze steady.

    Vice President Ye strode in and sneered, "I thought Fengyue’s new owner was some big shot, but it’s just a... delicate little omega!"

    Ji Yuan, standing by Shen Zhixue, spoke up firmly, "This is Shen Zhixue, the future president of Fengyue Entertainment. Vice President Ye, you should watch your words!"

    Vice President Ye lounged on the conference table, casually pulling a black handgun from his jacket and toying with it.

    Shen Zhixue recognized it as an old-model particle gun, a military-grade weapon under strict control.

    Such firearms could only be obtained through military ties or the Empire’s black market.

    Clearly, the Wan family wouldn’t let someone named Ye run amok in the military, so this gun was probably black market.

    Shen Zhixue stood, deftly took the gun, and smiled, "A fine piece indeed."

    Vice President Ye smirked, "Just a hobby. Don’t be scared, President Shen."

    Shen Zhixue handed the gun back with a smile, "Ji Yuan, I just remembered I left something at the Wan family. Could you fetch it for me?"

    Ji Yuan blinked, "...What thing?"

    "See what’s there," Shen Zhixue said casually. "A heavy particle cannon or a killing mech—whatever. Bring one. I’ll spar with Vice President Ye."

    Vice President Ye: "..."

    His shoddy particle gun against those two weapons would be like an egg hitting a rock!

    But those two weapons were the latest models from the military research institute. How could a small omega like him have any connection to the Wan family!?

    Realizing this, Vice President Ye quickly snorted in disdain, his lecherous gaze fixed on Shen Zhixue, "President Shen, you're quite the looker, and you talk a big game. I wonder if that mouth of yours is just as tough in bed?"
