Chapter 715: Successor

Begged them?

Everyone seated on the desk became curious and surprised. Why did Zhang Xuming use the word begged?

After all, the equipment that Xuming Medical Manufacturers produced was in high demand right now. Furthermore, the company had a long history of expertise in the industry. These factors made the company quite reputable.

And thus, shouldn’t the successor feel grateful to have this opportunity?

For Zhang Xuming to use the words “begged…” How talented was this person?

Wei Qirui’s voice was filled with curiosity: “Elder Zhang, your successor sounds incredibly talented. You should tell us more about him or her.”

Zhang Xuming’s face was filled with smiles. However, he did not elaborate further. Instead, he kept his listeners in suspense:

“Ahhh, about this. You guys can wait for a bit more. When the time comes, I will make a proper announcement.”

Announcing a successor for a major company was not a trivial matter. Naturally, Zhang Xuming treated the matter with utmost importance.

An old gentleman around the same age as Zhang Xuming laughed before he said: “Elder Zhang, there’s so much suspense now. If I can’t sleep at night, I will have to blame you.”

Then, the people next to him congratulated him as well: “Either way, I must congratulate you Elder Zhang. You finally found a suitable successor. I hope Xuming Medical Manufacturers becomes even better in the future.”

“Congratulations Elder Zhang. Your wish has finally been fulfilled. From now on, you can rest in peace.”

Everyone at the round table expressed their congratulations to Zhang Xuming.

Wei Qirui also followed suit and joked: “Since he or she is your chosen successor, they must be outstanding in all aspects, right?”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuming’s face became even happier: “Of course. I searched all my life for this person. I can finally hand over my work to someone with confidence.”

Zhang Xuming’s words made everyone more and more curious about his successor.

Everyone knew that Zhang Xuming was a very picky person.

After all, his retirement wouldn’t have been delayed to eighty years old if this wasn’t the case.

What kind of person did Zhang Xuming ask to be the next Chairman and CEO of Xuming Medical Manufacturers?

Then, most people on the table asked Zhang Xuming several questions about the successor.

However, Zhang Xuming’s answers were very vague. He did not say anything to help them make a guess. As a result, everyone had no idea who the successor was.

Out of everyone on the desk, Jian Yiling was relatively quiet.

Jian Yiling did not open her mouth to ask Zhang Xuming any questions. She did not fit in with the lively surroundings.

Wei Qirui’s gaze fell on Jian Yiling.

“Miss Yiling, are you a little uncomfortable right now?”

The relationship between the Wei family and the Zhai family was unknown to outsiders.

And thus, Wei Qirui’s words seemed like he was caring for Jian Yiling. However, in reality, he was making fun of her.

“I’m okay,” Jian Yiling replied.

As time passed, people changed. Jian Yiling was slowly adapting to lively situations.

In these three years, with the help of Jian Yunmo, Jian Yiling became more used to crowds.

In the beginning, she hated being with groups of people. Back then, she did not know how to deal with communicating with other individuals. However, she gradually became better at it.

It was just that Jian Yiling still did not speak a lot.

Wei Qirui smiled before he continued: “Why isn’t Master Sheng accompanying you today?”

“We are independent individuals,” Jian Yiling replied. Her tone was cold and detached.

“However, you’re attending Elder Zhang’s birthday today. On such an occasion, shouldn’t you both come together?” Wei Qirui asked. It was as though he was intentionally trying to pick a bone with Jian Yiling.

“It’s a private matter,” Jian Yiling replied. She felt that she did not need to explain the matter to Wei Qirui.
