As soon as Jian Fei was done speaking, Lin Huang was the first to raise his hand while Jian Fei was the second.
As the two current deputy chiefs raised their hands, the eight management members hesitated and looked at each other.
The short-haired lady glanced at Gu Fei who was sitting at the end of the long table and was the third to raise her hand.
After her, the tanned, middle-aged man and Fatso who was next to Lin Huang raised their hands too.
The remaining five of them did not raise their hands.
"I'll announce the results now that everyone has chosen." Jian Fei glanced at the people present.
"7 votes for yes and 5 against. More than half of the votes for yes! "
After announcing the result, Jian Fei looked at Gu Fei smilingly.
"Congratulations, Gu Fei, for becoming the third deputy chief of the Heaven Alliance!"
Gu Fei stood up and thanked him while smiling.
"Since the third deputy chief has been chosen, let's get back to the first topic. Choosing the acting chief!"
"Now that we have three deputy chiefs, they're three candidates. Next, let's vote and choose one of the three candidates to be the acting chief. "
"There are 11 of you here. Each of you has a vote, including the deputy chief. The three candidates can vote for themselves or someone else. "
"Now, 11 of you, please write down the name of the candidate that you'd like to choose on the paper. Those who don't want to write can submit a blank piece of paper to abstain," Jian Fei said and gave each of them a piece of paper the size of a palm.
"Don't check who the others have written down and don't discuss with anyone else. Write down the name of the person that you want to be the acting chief. Those of you who have written your name, fold the paper and don't let anyone see it. We'll announce the results after everyone has submitted their names. The candidate whose name appears the most will be chosen as the acting leader in the end. "
Everyone picked up the piece of paper in their hands one after another. Including Lin Huang, they scanned it with their Divine Telekinesis and found out that the paper could block detection to a certain extent. However, apart from that, nobody tampered with the paper.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the paper, Lin Huang inserted his Life Power into the paper and wrote 'Jian Fei'. He then folded the paper and placed it on the table before him.
Jian Fei, who was sitting opposite Lin Huang, wrote his name and folded it without hesitation.
In less than half a minute, all eleven of them had written down their names and folded them.
"Vice Chief Gu, please collect everyone's name list," Jian Fei said to Gu Fei when he saw that everyone was done.
Gu Fei nodded and picked up her name list. She then quickly collected the rest of the names and passed them to Jian Fei.
Jian Fei pushed the name list to Lin Huang who was sitting opposite him. "Deputy Chief Lin, you announce it."
Lin Huang was a little surprised, but he still nodded.
He picked up the stack of names and stood up.
He flipped open the first folded name list and saw his own name — Lin Xie.
"Lin Xie, 1 vote."
After Lin Huang showed the list to everyone, he spread it on the table.
Then he flipped open the second list and saw his name again.
"Lin Xie, 2 votes."
He then displayed the second list of names before spreading it out on the table.
Subsequently, he flipped open the third list. He could not help but raise his eyebrow when he saw the name. It was his name again.
"Lin Xie, 3 votes."
After spreading the third list on the table, he picked up the fourth list while frowning slightly.
This time, it was not his name again. He finally relaxed his frown a little.
"Jian Fei, 1 vote."
Later on, Jian Fei's name appeared more frequently.
"Lin Xie, 4 votes."
"Jian Fei, 5 votes."
When it came to the third last list, Jian Fei's votes finally surpassed Lin Huang's. Lin Huang was greatly relieved. He really did not want to be the acting chief. He did not have the time to manage the Heaven Alliance well.
However, when he flipped open the second last list, it was his name again.
"Lin Xie, 5 votes."
It was a tie, which surprised Lin Huang that it was five to five.
He had only been the deputy chief for less than a month. He did not manage much and did not even log into the Evil Alliance. He had no idea why so many people voted for him.
Jian Fei looked upset too. He did not seem to expect so many people to vote for Lin Huang.
Everyone present was a little surprised by the result too.
Of course, everyone could recognize their handwriting and knew that Lin Huang did not cheat.
There was only one vote left. Apart from the person who wrote the last vote, everyone was looking forward to the final result.
Lin Huang picked up the last list. He let out a long sigh of relief when he saw the name.
"Jian Fei, 6 votes!"
As soon as he said that, Lin Huang flipped the last list and showed it to everyone.
"6 votes to 5 votes!"
"Congratulations, Deputy Chief Jian, for becoming the acting chief of the Heaven Alliance!"
"Thank you, thank you …" Jian Fei heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the result. He stood up with a smile and shook hands with Lin Huang. He then expressed his gratitude to everyone present.
Although almost half of them voted for Lin Huang, they still accepted the final result.
No one was surprised that the newly appointed deputy chief, Gu Fei, had zero votes.
The meeting came to an end after Jian Fei gave a brief concluding speech.
In the meeting room, Jian Fei and the eight management members went offline one after another.
Just when Lin Huang was going to log out of the Evil Alliance, Gu Fei called him to stop.
"Deputy Chief Lin, can I have your contact number?"
"Sure." Lin Huang nodded his head in agreement.
The reason why he pushed Gu Fei to be the deputy chief was so that she could share his burden in the Heaven Alliance. There would be many things that they would need to contact in the future.
Gu Fei asked with a smile after they exchanged numbers, "Why aren't you willing to be the acting chief, Deputy Chief Lin?"
"Did I?" Lin Huang raised his brow and asked.
"I was relieved when I saw you flipping through the last name list," Gu Fei said while smiling.
"Haha, I've been exposed." Lin Huang did not bother to argue. "Perhaps I'm a lazy person."
"But I think the Heaven Alliance might be elevated to a higher level if you're the acting chief, Deputy Chief Lin," Gu Fei said while grinning.
"You think too highly of me. The reason why the Heaven Alliance has its current position is because of the hundreds of years of management by the previous chiefs and the hard work of the Heaven Alliance members. It's not something that can be changed by one's ability. Chief Chan Dou can't do it, and neither can I. "Lin Huang shook his head." Moreover, I've never planned to stay on immortal-level since the beginning. "
"You can't raise a real dragon by diving. I understand now." Gu Fei smiled and did not dwell on the topic. "Keep in touch if there's anything. I'm going offline."
Lin Huang shook his head and said while smiling after watching Gu Fei go offline, "She's indeed an amazing lady. Chan Dou has great foresight!"
