SAG -Chapter 157 Mr. Zhang Can Fully Represent His Highness the Prince

No one had expected that the person Zhao Jingyu said would come to explain things would actually be such a young man.

Everyone put on an expression as if they were waiting to watch a good show. They wanted to see what Zhang Ran could possibly say.

Some of them had already begun preparing to use this opportunity to attack Huo Zhiyuan. Otherwise, they would not have had such an attitude just now.

Each of their teams actually represented an influential shareholder. This was also part of the internal competition within the company.

But what happened next shocked them.

Rahama, who had been sitting calmly to the side all this time, suddenly stood up. He bowed slightly to Zhang Ran and said respectfully, “Hello, Mr. Zhang.”

This scene made many people’s jaws drop.

This was Rahama, the person in charge of Prince Haiman’s team.

Although they had acted aggressively earlier, that had actually only been a show. They did not truly dare to offend Rahama.

After all, many of Prince Haiman’s businesses were handled by Rahama. Meanwhile, Prince Haiman’s main businesses were concentrated in the luxury goods industry, and Kangshilan was also part of that industry.

On top of Prince Haiman’s status, Rahama himself held a very high position.

Yet someone like him was now acting so respectful toward this “young man” who had just arrived. For a moment, they found it difficult to accept. At the same time, some people felt a bad premonition rising in their hearts.

Zhang Ran said to Rahama, “Thank you, Mr. Rahama. You’ve worked hard during this period.”

“It is my honor to be able to help you. Before His Highness the Prince left, he personally instructed me to serve you well. Mr. Zhang, if you need anything in the future, please feel free to come to me. I will do everything in my power to serve you,” Rahama said, placing himself in a very humble position, looking almost like a butler.

In truth, Rahama could indeed be considered one of Prince Haiman’s butlers. It was just that this butler managed businesses for Prince Haiman.

Before Prince Haiman left, he had told Rahama that as long as what Zhang Ran asked him to do did not involve politics, Rahama had to obey completely. Zhang Ran’s orders were the same as his own orders.

When Prince Haiman said this, Rahama saw the prince suddenly laugh at himself.

“I was overthinking it. That fellow won’t get involved in politics.”

Rahama also knew just how close the relationship between Prince Haiman and this Mr. Zhang Ran was, which was why he behaved this way now.

Zhang Ran said, “You’re too polite, Mr. Rahama. Please sit.”

At this moment, Zhang Ran seemed to be the true master of the place.

Because of Rahama’s attitude just now, the room was now frighteningly quiet. Everyone was looking at Zhang Ran.

Zhang Ran swept his gaze around the room and looked at Zhang Siyan, who was still somewhat nervous. He smiled and said, “Relax a little. I’m here.”

Those three simple words, “I’m here,” gave Zhang Siyan the feeling that she now had someone to rely on. It was as if there was nothing to be afraid of anymore.

Qian Li, meanwhile, was looking at Zhang Ran with eyes full of admiration. She had known before that this Uncle Zhang was not simple, but now it seemed she had still underestimated him.

Zhang Ran turned his gaze to Zhao Jingyu.

“Assistant Zhao, explain the matter to me in detail.”

Although Zhang Ran had listened to Qian Li give him a rough summary, he still did not know the specifics very clearly. At the time, Qian Li had mainly talked about what had happened earlier.

Zhao Jingyu nervously recounted the matter in a brief and quick manner. Afterward, she said no more and quietly stood to the side.

While Zhao Jingyu was speaking, no one interrupted her. Rahama’s attitude just now had truly stunned everyone.

After listening, Zhang Ran nodded to show that he understood. Then he swept his gaze around the room and said calmly, “You all think my daughter is not qualified to be the person in charge of this project?”

As soon as these words came out, aside from those who already knew Zhang Ran’s true age, everyone else was stunned.

For a moment, no one in the room spoke. Zhang Ran did not urge them either. He simply watched them quietly.

After hearing Zhao Jingyu’s account, he had already vaguely guessed some of Huo Zhiyuan’s intentions, so his attitude at this moment was extremely firm.

At this time, someone spoke up.

“Sir, this is an internal matter of our company. Although you are Miss Zhang Siyan’s father, you have no right to interfere in our company’s affairs.”

The others also quickly came back to their senses and strongly agreed with this statement.

Zhang Ran nodded and said, “That’s true. This is your company’s matter. Then let’s put that aside for now. I’ll talk about something else first.”

As he spoke, Zhang Ran looked toward the two people whose malicious slander of Zhang Siyan he had overheard when he entered.

“Does your company like hiring people like this? Gossiping behind someone’s back and spewing filth from their mouths—is this what you call senior executives? If that’s the case, then I truly don’t want my daughter joining your company.” Zhang Ran stared closely at the two of them.

“Sir, I don’t know what they said. Perhaps there was something inappropriate about it. I apologize to you on their behalf here, but that is no reason for you to slander our company like this,” someone stood up and said.

This was also because Rahama’s attitude earlier had taken effect. Otherwise, these people would probably have lost their patience by now and might have directly had Zhang Ran thrown out.

When Zhang Ran heard this person’s words, he surprisingly said nothing. He merely glanced indifferently at the two people, then returned to the main topic.

“I understand what you all mean. In short, you are dissatisfied with my daughter becoming the person in charge of this project, correct?” Zhang Ran said.

“It’s not that we’re dissatisfied. It’s that your daughter, Miss Zhang, truly does not have this ability,” someone retorted stiffly.

Zhang Ran’s attitude made them extremely unhappy, and they were already exercising great restraint.

Zhang Ran did not care about his attitude. Hearing this, he smiled and said, “Very well. Then my daughter won’t be the person in charge anymore. That settles it. You may all disperse. That will be all for today.”

“Sir, what do you mean by that?” someone asked with a frown.

The way Zhang Ran spoke made it seem as though he were shooing them away like flies.

“What else could it mean? Prince Haiman will no longer cooperate with Kangshilan,” Zhang Ran said calmly.

“Mr. Rahama?” someone looked toward Rahama.

Rahama stood up and said with a serious expression, “In business matters, Mr. Zhang can fully represent our prince. Mr. Zhang’s decision is His Highness the Prince’s decision.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone could no longer control their expressions.

To them, this was simply too absurd.

“Mr. Rahama, you must take responsibility for your words!”

“Of course. I am absolutely certain of this,” Rahama replied in an indifferent tone.

At this moment, everyone completely understood from Rahama’s words that if Zhang Siyan did not serve as the person in charge of this project, then Prince Haiman’s side would not cooperate with them.
