Chapter 655 - The New Head

For a period of time, the large conference hall was filled with silence. It was too silent that people seemed to hear the ticking of the clock.

The seconds passed by and drops of sweat travelled down on the sides of the faces of the shareholders. Even though they had prepared themselves for this situation and made the decision to choose for the rightful candidate, the tensed atmosphere and the changes that would occur afterwards were still nerve wrecking.

Their fate and their future would be influenced with this. Either they would be on the side of the winner and getting all the benefits, or stand on the side of the loser and losing many things.

Ding.

A metallic sound of notification vibrated from everyone's tablets. It was the indication that everyone present had already cast their votes.

Even the head butler who acted as the representative in casting the former headmaster's vote was already done voting.

All eyes turned to Guan Gu Ri.

Guan Gu Ri received their stares. His dark eyes swept towards the empty seat.

...It turned out that his second brother still could not come in the end.

Guan Gu Ri stared at the tight faces of the people present and spoke. "Since all of us present here have voted, we will now present the results to everyone."

Guan Gu Ri looked at the head butler.

The head butler bowed, took out his tablet, and swiped.

The image on the large screen displayed on one wall of the conference room flashed. The numbers beside the three names of the candidates changed.

The results were showed.

Guan Gu Ri, 39%.

Guan Xixin, 13%.

Guan Gao Huan, 48%.

There was a momentary silence in the room.

Guan Gao Huan won with almost half of the support of the board of directors!

"...!" Guan Gao Huan's smile almost broke out.

He won!!!

The Guan Empire was finally his!!!

Even though he expected that the result today would be in his favor, seeing and experiencing it at the same time gave a sweet taste in his mouth.

His eyes were bright with a fevered light as he stared at the figure of '48 %'. This bright number that allowed him to be the next head of the Guan Empire seemed very beautiful.

Although he was ecstatically happy and wanted to laugh hard at how these people handed over to him the Guan Empire so easily, he pressed down his rising lips and let out a shocked expression.

He still must act until the end.

One of Guan Gao Huan's supporters stood up in delight and exclaimed.

"Congratulations, Third Young Master Guan!"

This exclamation was like a heavy drop of water falling on a still lake.

It woke up everyone from their daze. They began to react uproariously. The conference room erupted into a chaotic celebration of the winners.

"Congratulations, third young master!"

"Congratulations!"

"My sincere felicitations!"

Guan Gao Huan's faction cheered happily as they stood up and extended their hands to shake hands with the new chairman. Their grins almost split their faces.

Their faction won!

If they have the chairman on their side, their power and authority within the Guan Empire would grow more than what they have right now. And if they could control this figurehead, monopolizing the empire's benefit for themselves would not be a pipe dream!

For these people, Guan Gao Huan winning the sucession trial and securing the chairman position of the Guan Empire was something to celebrate.

He allowed himself to be basked by this glory.

Oh...

How long had he wished to be called the Guan Empire's chairman?

He had long schemed to be the Guan Empire's head. Now, this big mine was finally his. His father and master would truly be happy. He had proven himself that he too, could achieve great things and defeat the real Guans.

His hard work, his sacrifices...finally paid off.

Guan Gao Huan's spirit was shimmering brightly. His confidence soared to the sky and his heart had basked in grandeur.

He stood up and bowed to his supporters. "Thank you for supporting me. I will not disappoint you and will continue to bring the Guan Empire to greater heights."

"You have our support, Third Young Master Guan!"

"It's not 'third young master' anymore, it is 'chairman' now! Chairman, please accept our loyalty!"

"...."

Standing quietly at the head of the long conference table, Guan Gu Ri watched everything indifferently.

He had already expected this outcome. Yet, it was different from what he had imagined.

Why couldn't he celebrate and sincerely congratulate his third brother on winning?

Was it because of the earlier strangeness he felt?

Guan Gu Ri took a deep breath and forcefully pushed down the uncomfortable feeling in his heart.

He stood up and walked forward while offering his congratulatory greetings. "Third brother, congratulations. You earned the right to sit on grandfather's chair."

Guan Gao Huan also walked up to him and smiled gently. "Thank you, brother. I will work hard for the sake of our family. With this, my promise to Grandpa will finally be fulfilled."

Guan Gu Ri only smiled and watched as Guan Gao Huan sat down on the head chair with a dignified manner without any hesitation.

Guan Gu Ri inwardly sighed and berated himself to stop.

Guan Gao Huan still wore a beatific smile on his face while he instructed everyone.

"Please calm down, everyone. We still have some formalities to do and procedures to adhere to."

The board of directors followed him enthusiastically and sat down. They were trying to gain favor with the new head and would not oppose such simple commands.

The next moment, the board of directors started talking about their contributions and the things they could do for the new chairman.
