Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 1226

Just as they were yelling and shouting, Lily noticed Fade at first glance. She smiled and said in a surprised tone, "Fade, you're back!"

Hearing the name "Fade", the directors and managers froze at once and they all looked over in shock.

Then, when they saw that it was really Fade, their faces fell. They immediately defended themselves.

"President Chen, I didn't see that it was you, so..."

"Master Chen, you're back. Sorry, I made an indiscreet remark."

"President Chen, please take a seat."

Fade took a glance at these people and ignored them. He walked straight to Lily and asked, "Sister Lily, how is it going? Did they make things difficult for you?"

Upon hearing this, their expressions changed again and they quickly wanted to explain further.

However, Fade threw a cold look at them and uttered, "I wasn't asking any of you!"

Suddenly, no one dared to speak. They could only keep glancing at Lily and hinting at her.

Lily was still processing her thoughts. She didn't expect Fade to return to the company at this timing. On the other hand, she also didn't expect Fade to be aware of what was going on in the company. "Fade, about the company, Quin..." Lily couldn't help but pause at the mention of Quin. She tentatively peered at him.

Fade said, "I already learned about Quin's departure. As for the company, since she's entrusted it to you, you can deal with it as you like. If there is anyone who refuses to cooperate, you can always tell me and I'll take care of it."

While speaking, Fade's eyes swept over the directors and managers.

Lily felt a surge of warmth at his words, then she smiled for a split second before putting back on her stern expression. She looked at the crowd and said," Since Mr. Chen is also part of our company, let's continue the meeting."

Then, Fade sat down next to Lily.

Lily continued solemnly, "There were personnel changes and corresponding changes made after President Lin's departure. If you have any opinion on this, please speak up."

When Lily had presented the same question earlier, she was faced with skeptical questions and opposing voices.

But now, with Fade sitting next to her, no one dared to speak up and they were all in silence.

Seeing this, Lily tapped her fingers on the table and added, "There doesn't seem to be anyone opposing this. Then, let's move forward. From today on, I'll be the acting chairman of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc."

At this point, a few of the participants finally couldn't sit still. They looked at each other and then their gazes all fell on a cultured-looking man in his 50s with gold-rimmed glasses.

The man coughed lightly before looking at Lily and spoke, "Miss Wei, I am aware of the changes you mentioned. In general, I do agree with you. However, I have different views on certain personnel appointments."

"Mr. Hu, do share your opinion with us." Lily raised her eyebrows to prompt the former, then pushed a document to Fade.

Fade took a glance at the document and studied up quickly on the man's information.

The man was Ryan Hu, who joined the company 15 years ago as a team leader of the marketing department. Over the years, he had slowly made his way to the position of the sales department's general manager.

Moreover, he held 5 percent of the company shares. Amongst all the shareholders present, Ryan held the largest portion of shares, and he also had the longest working experience with the company. It was obvious that Ryan was not satisfied with the fact that Lily was being appointed.

Sure enough, after listening to Lily, Ryan got straight to the point. "My concern is mainly on the appointment of the acting chairman. I can understand why President Lin's entrusting you with this position; after all, you used to be her secretary and you two share a close personal relationship. It's only normal for President Lin to choose you."

His words didn't seem like he had a problem with this, but in fact, he was indirectly hinting that Lily was appointed as the acting chairman only because of her relationship with Quin, not because she was qualified for the position.

As expected, many directors and managers nodded in agreement and whispered among themselves.

Lily's eyes narrowed at this, but she didn't get angry. She simply looked at Ryan and asked, "Since you don't find me suitable for the position, may I ask who would you nominate?"

Ryan smiled at her question. He quickly waved his hand and explained, "Miss Wei, I'm not saying that you're not fit for the position. It's just that we are aiming to expand our business, and we need someone who is more experienced to manage the company. After all, the company doesn't belong to one person, but to everyone. It's beneficial to have someone more experienced to manage the company."

Just as he finished speaking, some people among the crowd immediately agreed with his words.

"I agree with Mr. Hu."

"Mr. Hu's right, Miss Wei. You're capable, but you're still too young. You're not even in your 30's."

"Yes. It would be better for someone who is a little more experienced to take up this position."

Watching them echoing after one another, Fade's face gradually darkened.

Lily didn't lose her temper and continued inquiring, "Since everyone has voiced out their opinion, I'd like to ask if you have any suitable candidate in mind?"

Ryan smirked and then glanced at the directors and managers who had concurred with his reasoning.

Immediately, someone stated, "Since you've asked, I think there's a suitable candidate."

"I think that Mr. Hu is a great candidate. He's been in the company for 15 years and has a lot of experience."

"Mr. Hu also has an outstanding performance in his job. He had been leading our company's sales department to continuously create new heights."

"So, in terms of competence, personal qualifications, and character, Mr. Hu is the best candidate," that person concluded.

"Yes, you're right. I support Mr. Hu as well!"

"Indeed, Mr. Hu is the most suitable one."

"I support Mr. Hu too."

Ryan's smile grew wider at the wave of compliments and support. Nonetheless, he still pretended to be humble as he gazed at Lily and said, "I didn't expect so many people to nominate me. I'm a bit surprised."

"Since everyone supports me this strongly, I gratefully accept it. I would also like to nominate myself as the acting chairman. Of course, if Miss Wei finds this nomination process inappropriate, we can always proceed to the voting session," Ryan said as he glanced sharply at Lily.
