Chapter 965: Gu Mang will be the Head of the Council of Jijing Island

The scale of the handover ceremony was magnificent.

A few powerful media outlets in the island were covering this event from the start till the end.

All the heads and important members of the big families had arrived at the Council House.

The ceremony had not started.

The families who were standing next to each other were gathered together.

Based on the size of the groups, it was obvious that even though the Leng family had gone through several setbacks, it was still the most powerful of the four big families.

Back in the day, the Bai family had a few favourable juniors. However, they had all vanished.

Now, no one in the family had management rights over Jijing Island.

They had clearly started to decline.

They had become the last of the pack.

Over at the Ye family.

The group looked towards the entrance constantly.

“Why isn’t Madam Ye here yet?” Someone asked curiously.

“I don’t know. There is only 10 minutes left till the handover ceremony begins.”

“Could it be that something cropped up?”

“Impossible. If something did crop up, we would have gotten the news by now.”

Initially, everyone was chatting while standing up. Now, everyone was moving towards the seats labelled with their names.

Everyone settled down one by one.

The three empty seats in the first row stood out amongst the crowd.

Ye Junci.

Young Master Ye.

And Ye Junci’s niece, Ye You.

There was no need for Huo Zhi to check the namelist personally. Hence, he was slightly taken aback when he saw the spots left by the Ye family.

“Young Master Ye?” Huo Zhi looked at the bald man. “Who is that?”

The bald man was slightly caught off guard. “Madam Ye brings Ms. Ye You along wherever she goes. Isn’t she Young Master Ye?”

When he saw the namelist, he had thought that Young Master Ye referred to Ye You, so he simply signed it without much doubt.

They weren’t… the same person?

“Could it be that the subordinates made a mistake?” The bald man guessed.

If such a low-level mistake was made at a majestic event like the handover ceremony, the person-in-charge would not be able to bear the consequences after the ceremony.

Frowning, Huo Zhi felt that something was amiss.

His subordinates were not so incapable.

Just then, the Head Elder walked over. “All the members of the Ye family have not arrived yet. They didn’t notify us either. What should we do about this?”

Huo Zhi raised his arm and glanced at the time.

Three more minutes left.

He said, “During the meeting that day, everyone in the Ye family was present. They didn’t have any objection.”

The Head Elder looked at him. “Are we not going to wait for them?”

Huo Zhi glanced at Gu Mang who was not far away. “Let’s start when the time is up.”

At 9 A.M, the handover ceremony began.

The entire venue became silent.

From the corner of their eyes, they could only see the journalists’ cameras flashing constantly.

Behind the podium was the flag of Jijing Island.

Huo Zhi went onto the podium and made an official speech before announcing that he would be stepping down as Head of the council officially.

Then, he invited Gu Mang onto the stage.

Just as Huo Zhi was about to shake hands with her, he realized that she turned and faced the audience once she walked to the podium.

His hand froze. He looked down silently and looked at the audience. “From today onwards, Ms. Gu Mang will be the Head of the Council of Jijing Island.”

Gu Mang spoke in an indifferent voice, “I am Gu Mang, the new Head of the Council of Jijing Island.”

The girl spoke steadily. Her eyes were dark and there was a discernible sharpness in her gaze, bringing about a fearful sense of oppression.

It was as if everyone had to bow before her.

Huo Zhi looked at her side profile. He could not really believe that this was happening.

Once Gu Mang became Head of the Council, that meant that she was completely entangled with Jijing Island and that she would not be able to leave anymore.

In the end, she would returned to his side.

Huo Zhi looked at the audience below the stage and smiled. “Taking this opportunity, I would also like to announce something…”

Just at this moment.

“Click!” The doors to the conference room opened.

Three figures appeared near the door.

Ye Junci was leading the group. On her left, there was Ye You and on her right…

When Huo Zhi saw the person’s face, his eyes narrowed.

“What does Mr. Huo want to announce?”
