My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 625 Not A Weakling

Ouyang Qing was having a spa day the next afternoon when she suddenly received a call from Nan Xing’s assistant,

saying that Nan Xing was sent to the hospital.

The assistant explained in a hurry that Nan Xing injured his leg while playing soccer with a group of friends in a

stadium. He was being treated in the hospital at the moment.

Hearing that, Ouyang Qing roared, “That useless piece of trash! He has just been appointed as the acting CEO and

has so many tasks on hand. Why did he go to play soccer? What a nutjob!”

Although Ouyang Qing was cursing Nan Xing, he was still her husband. Therefore, she had to go check on him in

the hospital.

Besides, Ouyang Duo said that the plan to take over Nanshi Corporation was still ongoing. Before it was finalized,

she had to keep an eye on Nan Xing to prevent him from playing any tricks.

Ouyang Qing got into the car after leaving the wellness center. Then, she instructed the driver to go to the hospital.

Ever since Ouyang Duo started going against the Nan family, Ouyang Qing did not dare to drive on her own in

Flower City.

Ouyang Duo was worried that the Nan family might give them a taste of their own medicine by kidnapping Ouyang

Qing. This would put Ouyang Duo at a disadvantage.

Hence, Ouyang Qing would travel around with bodyguards.

She had to wait until the Ouyang family had taken control of Nanshi Corporation before letting her guard down.

When Ouyang Qing arrived at the hospital, Nan Xing’s assistant was already waiting at the entrance. Then, the

latter brought her to the ward.

Nan Xing’s leg had already been treated and placed in a cast.

“What happened to you? Why did you go to play soccer? You have so many things to do. Yet you still have free time

to play soccer?” Ouyang Qing immediately started lecturing him.

Nan Xing shot her a glance without replying.

Suddenly, Ouyang Qing was plunged into a trance.

Am I imagining things? The look he’s giving me is a little different from usual. Maybe he’s in a bad mood after

hurting his leg. That’s why he gave me that look.

“Is it a serious injury? You have to preside over a weekly meeting tomorrow. The higher-ups from headquarters will

be there. Can you attend the meeting in your condition? It will be your first weekly meeting after becoming the

CEO. If you’re absent, I’m afraid people might start speculating.”

Naturally, Ouyang Qing was more concerned about the Ouyang family’s acquisition plan instead of Nan Xing’s

health.

At the moment, Nan Xing was merely a puppet for the Ouyang family to give orders in their place.

If Nan Xing could not resume work normally, the Ouyang family’s plan of taking over Nanshi Corporation would be

affected.

“I’ll go to the meeting,” Nan Xing replied flatly.

Ouyang Qing replied, “Don’t overthink it. It’s not that I don’t care about you. I just think that since you’ve only just

become the CEO, you have to put more effort into it. You can’t afford to miss those meetings. I’ll ask someone to

prepare a wheelchair for you.”

“If I can’t use the wheelchair, are you going to ask someone to carry me to the meeting?” Nan Xing probed.

“Of course not. I’m not that cruel. And don’t give me that look! It’s your fault for getting injured at a time like this.

I’ll have to inform my dad about this right away. We’ll see how he will make the necessary arrangements.”

With that, Ouyang Qing walked to the side and made a call.

Upon hearing the incident, Ouyang Duo fumed, “What? He got injured a day before the meeting? I don’t care if he

has to be carried to the company. He must attend the meeting!”

Ouyang Qing hurriedly distanced herself from Nan Xing for fear that he might be upset by those harsh words.

However, Nan Xing could not care less about their conversation as he could probably guess what they were talking

about.

The next morning, Nan Xing showed up at Nanshi Corporation’s headquarters in his wheelchair.

Nan Zhengde arrived not long after him.

The elderly man was on crutches, while the young man was in a wheelchair. It was a pitiful sight to behold.

The meeting that was held this time around was a high-level meeting different from the board meeting. It was the

company’s internal meeting with the participation of the management team.

Nan Zhengde had not attended a meeting of this scale for at least five years. That was because Nan Chen had

always taken care of everything in his absence.

As the CEO, Nan Xing sat there listening to his subordinates’ reports while jotting down something in a notebook.

Being familiar with Nan Xing, the executives did not hold the acting CEO in good regard.

It wasn’t because they didn’t think Nan Xing could not do it. Instead, they were worried about his ability to hold such

an important position.

After the report, everyone waited for Nan Xing to speak up.

According to the usual process, the CEO would not only listen to the reports but also give speeches in such weekly

meetings.

Besides, it was an important speech on the work’s summary and new plans.

Those who supported Nan Xing were on edge, fearing that the young man might mess up and end up embarrassing

himself and causing the group to lose confidence in him.

After all, unity was of utmost importance within a team. Once the employees’ minds started to waver, the work

efficiency would be reduced, which will in turn cause a lot of problems.

As the saying goes, good players could not overcome bad coaching. Poor leadership would ultimately lead to the

downfall of a team.

However, contrary to their expectation, there was no problem with Nan Xing’s following action.

If anything, he did it with efficiency. The speech was simple and straight to the point. His instructions were crystal

clear and without ambiguity.

The clarity in speeches was paramount in showing that the decision-maker was clear-headed.

Only a calm, collected, and objective leader could give clear instructions in order to prevent any last-minute

changes that would result in chaos.

Everyone was taken aback by Nan Xing’s leadership. They did not expect him to be so outstanding. It seemed like

the young man was unfazed by all sorts of challenges.

Nan Xing’s performance exceeded everyone’s expectations.

Looking at Nan Zhengde, Nan Xing asked, “Grandpa, since you’re here today, do you have anything to say?”

Nan Zhengde cleared his throat and uttered, “I’m actually here at the behest of your father-in-law. He wanted Nan

Zhiyuan to join the company as deputy CEO and has asked me to make the necessary arrangements for it.

However, I’m a free man now, and I can’t make this decision myself. As such, I’m here to discuss this matter with

all of you.”

There was an uproar in the conference room when they heard the elderly man’s words. Who is Nan Xing’s father-

in-law? Who gave him the right to interfere with the internal affairs of Nanshi Corporation?

Nan Xing hastily explained, “Grandpa, this matter needs to be discussed during the board of directors’ meeting. It’s

inappropriate for you to bring up this matter at a work meeting.”

“All I know was that there was going to be a meeting today. I had no idea know what kind of meeting it would be

when I came here. Anyway, that’s what happened. You guys should discuss it and see if this can be done,” Nan

Zhengde explained.

“Objection!” A loud voice rang out in the conference room.

The one who spoke was also a senior deputy CEO. “The group is progressing nicely now. My fellow deputy CEOs are

also performing well. We don’t need another deputy CEO.”

“That’s right. I’m also against it. We still remember the damage that Nan Zhiyuan has done to the company. How

can we allow him to join the company’s management?”

“I object!”

“I object, too!”

The conference room was plunged into chaos in an instant. Many attendees voiced their objections regardless they

were qualified to oppose the decision or not.

Frowning, Nan Xing said, “Grandpa, you can see the result yourself. Go back and tell my father-in-law that we’ll

discuss this matter in the future.”

Meanwhile, Ouyang Duo had already heard about the situation in the conference room over the phone.

Seething with rage, he nearly threw the phone. “I can’t believe Nan Xing isn’t taking my side! I guess he has

toughened up now that he’s the CEO, huh? I was so sure that we could make arrangements for Nan Zhiyuan to join

the company. How dare he go against me!”

Feng Jialing asked, “Don’t you think there’s something off with Nan Xing? He has always been a cheeky person

without a care in the world. He has never acted this way before, has he?”

“Nan Xing usually works in the company. Also, he isn’t a rookie. With Nan Zhengde teaching him, he’s naturally not

a weakling. But no matter how strong he is, I’m certain I can control him! Get him to come and see me. I’m going

to teach that punk a lesson and show him who is the boss here!” Ouyang Duo raged.
