The motorcade surged toward the headquarters of Yu Corporation.
Wang Simin, who had convened the board meeting for the second time, could never have imagined that her stepson would dare to storm the headquarters with a group of men, openly declaring his intent to wipe them all out in one fell swoop.
When the news reached the boardroom, chaos erupted.
Not only was Wang Simin stunned, but every other director in the room was equally shocked, their faces burning with indignation. Even those who usually sided with the chairman were now furious, believing Yu Mo’s actions were utterly brazen and disrespectful.
“Has Yu Mo lost his mind? Storming the headquarters with armed men? This is outright rebellion!”
“Looks like our ‘young master’ truly doesn’t see us directors as worthy of respect!”
“Exactly! Does he think bringing a few bodyguards will intimidate us? How naive!”
“Tch, this brat doesn’t know his place. Today, we’ll teach him a lesson he won’t forget!”
“Alert security immediately—lock down the building! Don’t let them in! Anyone who tries to force their way in, beat them senseless!”
“……”
While Yu Corporation was indeed a family-run business, it still had external shareholders. Moreover, those who held board seats were all influential figures—wealthy, powerful, and well-connected in the region.
They certainly weren’t afraid of Yu Mo showing up with a few thugs.
However, they had grossly underestimated what they dismissively referred to as “thugs.” In reality, these men were now fully legitimate security personnel of Yu Corporation.
The company’s security team, upon receiving orders from the board, immediately mobilized and gathered at the entrance, ready to put these reckless troublemakers in their place.
But when they saw the endless stream of black-suited men stepping out of the vehicles, their confidence evaporated.
These men moved with disciplined precision, their presence radiating an intimidating aura.
Wait… weren’t they supposed to be dealing with a handful of punks?
This looked like an entire mafia syndicate had descended upon them!
Yu Mo strode forward, his voice commanding: “Everyone, step aside. Anyone who refuses will be ‘dealt with immediately’!”
Yet, few of the guards moved. After all, if they simply let these underworld figures waltz into the company, their jobs would be on the line.
Especially the head of security, who was firmly in Wang Simin’s camp—he wasn’t about to back down.
“You’re not getting in! This is Yu Corporation’s headquarters, not some back alley for thugs to run wild!”
The security chief knew they stood no chance against so many hardened men. His only option was to stall for time while someone called the police.
Under Yu Xin’s influence, Yu Mo had developed a decisive approach. Seeing the guards’ resistance, he simply raised his hand.
“Take them down.”
At his command, members of the Wanlong Society drew their batons and charged.
The clash lasted less than a minute before the guards raised their hands in surrender.
For a measly salary, why risk their lives? Jobs could be replaced—lives couldn’t.
But even after surrendering, Yu Mo didn’t spare them.
Every guard who had stood in his way was dragged off for “immediate execution”—termination.
By the time the police arrived, all the guards had signed their dismissal papers and were no longer Yu Corporation employees.
Soon after, bystanders watching from a distance witnessed a surreal scene unfold.
Men in security uniforms were being hauled away by officers, while the intimidating figures in black suits—clearly resembling gangsters—remained untouched, boldly securing the premises of Yu Corporation’s headquarters.
The audacity was staggering.
“What the hell? The guards get arrested, but the gangsters walk free?”
“This is insane! What’s the world coming to?”
“Good lord, in all my years, I’ve never seen anything like this. Did the cops arrest the wrong people?”
“Broad daylight—no, scratch that—dead of night, and a bunch of thugs just stormed Yu Corporation, took out the guards, and got away with it? Unbelievable.”
“This is beyond crooked…”
Many onlookers pieced together their own theories, convinced these men had powerful backing—beating up guards, colluding with… someone, and still managing to send the guards to jail instead.
The only word that fit was “mafia.”
It defied all logic!
And if even a giant like Yu Corporation could be bullied like this, what hope did ordinary people have if they ever crossed paths with these men?
A dark unease settled over the crowd.
Truthfully, the police had been just as baffled when they first arrived.
The emergency call had reported a gang of criminals forcing their way into Yu Corporation’s headquarters—an immediate red alert. Patrol units and backup squads rushed to the scene.
But when they got there, confusion set in.
Wait… the guys in security uniforms were the criminals?
And the men in black suits—who looked like textbook gangsters—were the actual security team?
Had the world turned upside down?
But after reviewing employment contracts and other legal documents, the officers sternly vowed to punish these “criminal imposters” masquerading as guards.
The arrested guards wailed about injustice, but the police only cared about evidence.
If you weren’t Yu Corporation employees, yet barged into the premises, weren’t you exactly the kind of lawbreakers they were supposed to arrest?
And if they’d impersonated guards this time, who’s to say they wouldn’t pose as officers next?
This demanded severe consequences!
When the board received the update, the meeting room erupted in uproar, faces twisted in shock and panic.
“Disaster! The entire security team’s been arrested! The young master’s men have taken over the company!”
“???”
“What?! How is that possible?!”
“This… this is absolute madness! They arrest our guards but let the thugs go? Is there no justice? No rule of law?!”
“Does the young master even recognize our authority as directors? Does he care about Yu Corporation’s rules at all? He’s staging a coup!”
“Enough talk—what do we do now? Are we really about to be wiped out?”
“……”
Though Wang Simin’s heart pounded with fear, she forced herself to appear calm. “We can’t just sit here. Mobilize every resource we have—stop Yu Mo before he runs amok. I refuse to believe he can overturn everything!”
The others nodded frantically, pulling out their phones to call in favors.
But just as their calls connected, before they could even explain the situation—
BANG!
The conference room door was kicked open with a deafening crash.
“Well, well, uncles and aunties… shouldn’t you all be home asleep at this hour?”
The ten directors, including Wang Simin, stiffened in their seats, especially when they saw the dense crowd of black-suited men stretching behind Yu Mo all the way down the corridor. Their hearts pounded with fear.
"Yu Mo, what do you think you're doing? Don’t you know we’re in the middle of a board meeting? Get out!" Wang Simin shouted angrily.
Yu Mo gave her a disdainful look and said, "You’re telling me to get out? Aunt Wang, do you even realize what you’re saying?"
"Uncles and aunts, surely you all know who the largest shareholder of Yu Corporation is, right? That’s right—it’s me! So, how appropriate is it for you to hold a board meeting without me, the majority shareholder?"
Wang Simin’s face paled slightly, but she refused to acknowledge it. "That’s nonsense! Since when are you the majority shareholder? Everyone knows it’s your father, Yu Jianhua. Besides, I’m currently filing for divorce, and half of those shares belong to me. The board has already passed a resolution—I’m now the chairwoman!"
Yu Mo laughed as if he had heard the most ridiculous joke. "Aunt Wang, you can fool the other directors who don’t know the truth, but surely you’re aware that my father was merely holding the shares my birth mother left for me?"
"Listen carefully, everyone—most of the shares my father held were actually part of my inheritance from my late mother, entrusted to him as a proxy! Now, I’ve demanded he return them to me. I am the true majority shareholder!"
Wang Simin panicked. The reason she had rushed to seize power wasn’t just fear of her husband’s retaliation—she was also afraid Yu Mo would take control. If he could prove his status as the majority shareholder, every resolution she had pushed through would be invalidated.
So, she couldn’t admit it now.
"Lies! Where’s your proof?!"
Yu Mo smirked coldly and pulled out a document from his coat, waving it in the air. "This is the notarized shareholding proxy agreement, bearing my father’s signature and fingerprint. Take a look for yourselves."
With that, he casually handed the document to the nearest director.
The director’s hands trembled as he took it. After examining it closely, he gasped, "This… this is real! Old Yu has been hiding this from us all along!"
"So that’s why he never disclosed the true distribution of the company’s shares."
"It seems we’ve all been kept in the dark."
"......"
Once the document’s authenticity was confirmed, Yu Mo strode straight to where his stepmother, Wang Simin, sat at the head of the table. He grabbed her arm and yanked her up. "Get out of this seat—do you really think it belongs to you?!"
Wang Simin, roughly pulled to her feet, flushed red with fury. "You—!"
But before she could finish, Yu Mo suddenly turned toward the door and said respectfully, "Director Liu, you may come in now."
