Chapter 143: Fighting

Han was listening to the conversation between Gu Ningli and Gu Zhiguang and frowned.

It seems that Gu Zhiguang also doesn't know the news about Jiang Jin, which is very strange.

Isn't it Gu Zhiguang who is targeting Jiang Jin? It is Jiang Jin's betrayal of Gu Zhiguang that angered him.

But judging from Gu Zhiguang's tone just now, his reaction didn't seem fake, so what was going on?

"You see, my father doesn't know where Jiang Jin went!" Gu Ningli looked at Han Que with tears in her eyes. Now she no longer regarded Han Que as a gold digger who wanted to marry into a rich family, but as a life-saving straw that she could trust.

After all, Gu Ningwei said before leaving, "If you have anything to discuss with your sister-in-law."

Gu Ningwei has already said that she is your sister-in-law, and she is pregnant with Gu Ningwei's child. Gu Ningli has no reason not to believe her.

"Han Que..." Gu Ningli stared at her in panic.

Han was thinking and analyzing nervously.

If Jiang Jin wanted to hide, he would not have made an appointment with Gu Ningli last night to have a deep talk with her. Even if he changed his mind on the way, he would not have suddenly disappeared. If he disappeared, there must be other hidden reasons.

But he still encountered danger on the way home, and who created this danger?

If it wasn’t Gu Zhiguang, who else could it be?

"Han Que, have you heard Awei mention what Jiang Jin wants to talk to me about?" Gu Ningli asked. After calming down, she also thought of this.

Before this, she often saw Jiang Jin with a worried look on his face, hesitant to speak, and had a vague feeling that something was about to happen, and these things must be related to her father and Chengguang Group.

She herself also owned a small amount of shares in Chengguang Group, and she was aware of the overwhelming rumors on the Internet and the gossip behind the fake sisters.

Jiang Jin must be hiding something from her.

Han was silent for a moment, hesitating in his heart.

Should I tell her about Chengguang's current situation and Jiang Jin's position?

He quickly denied his thoughts.

She didn't want to get involved in the Gu family's disputes and the affairs of Chengguang Group. She just wanted to do a good job for Zhening, which was her foundation.

What's more, Jiang Jin, the man with whom she had an emotional entanglement, how his relationship with Gu Ningli would develop in the future was not something she, Han, had to intervene in.

So she shook her head slightly and said, "I don't know much about their affairs. Ah Wei never mentioned it. He usually doesn't tell me about the internal affairs of Chengguang Group."

Seeing Gu Ningli's disbelief, he added, "After all, it's a listed company. Any leak of inside information will be subject to legal liability. You know Ah Wei is always very cautious."

Gu Ningli frowned. She knew that what Han Que said made sense, but she also knew that she was just trying to fool her.

So she thought about it and asked another question: "Should we call the police now?"

Han hesitated for a moment, she was thinking about this problem.

When the police arrive, they will definitely investigate all suspects, and it will definitely involve the inside story of Gu Zhiguang and Chengguang Group.

Han was not sure how Gu Ningwei's plan would proceed.

But if she didn't call the police, she and Gu Ningli would not be able to find any clues just sitting at home.

Han Que frowned, thinking hard. Gu Ningli said with a frown beside him, "What should we do now? Is there nothing we can do? Will Jiangjin be in danger?"

Han could only comfort her, "No news now is the best news. Just wait and see patiently."

As time passed, Gu Ningli became increasingly uneasy. She complained to herself, "Oh, I'm really useless. I usually have a lot of friends, but none of them are any use to me right now. I don't even know who to turn to..."

Hearing her words, Han had an idea. She thought of someone, but she was not sure, so she sent a message to Gu Ningwei.

"I have a friend who might be able to get some information..." Han said he might be able to help us, but I need to confirm with A Wei if I can ask him for help."

"Ah! Then let's go find him directly, what are we waiting for! You know, if we delay for one more minute, Jiang Jin will be in danger for one minute." When Gu Ningli heard that there was a way, she immediately stood up and wanted to go out.

"Don't be impatient." Han Que stopped him, "I'm waiting for Gu Ningwei's decision!"

Han thought to himself, if you knew that the person I am looking for is the mortal enemy of your father and Chengguang Group, you would hate me to death.

The matter was of great importance, and she could not make the decision on behalf of Gu Ningwei.

Time passed minute by minute, but Han kept checking his phone, but Gu Ningwei still hadn't replied.

Han knew that he was in a meeting, but as Gu Ningli said, if they delayed for one more minute, Jiang Jin would be in danger.

Gu Ningwei was announcing suggestions and opinions on Chengguang Group's subsequent rectification work in the conference room.

He did not mention Jiang Jin's absence today, but someone at the meeting asked, why didn't Mr. Jiang attend the meeting today?

Secretary Xie said that Mr. Jiang is not a member of the board of directors and attended the meeting yesterday only to report the results of the investigation. Today's agenda has little to do with him, so he was not notified.

Gu Ningwei deliberately asked, "Hey, I just passed by Mr. Jiang's office and didn't see him. Do you know where he went?"

The others looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Oh, what if there's more data I need to ask him?" Gu Ningwei muttered in mock dissatisfaction, "Why didn't this guy come and tell me?"

"Secretary Xie, please call and ask later." Gu Zhicheng said impatiently, and then said to Gu Ningwei: "Go on, what are we going to do next? This is the main thing!"

He didn't care where Jiang Jin went.

"Boss Gu?" Gu Ningwei looked at his uncle Gu Zhiguang again, "Didn't Boss Jiang come to ask for leave today?"

Gu Zhiguang looked up at him, his brows furrowed and his expression tense. He shook his head, "I'm looking for him too. Ali called just now and couldn't reach him. I don't know what these two are doing!"

He complained, his tone deliberately relaxed, as if he was just a father who was worried about his daughter.

Gu Ningwei looked at him quietly for a few seconds, pursed his lips and said nothing.

He was a little surprised. He originally thought that Jiang Jin's disappearance was caused by Gu Zhigang.

But now Gu Zhiguang's expression doesn't seem fake, could it be that he didn't do it?

This matter is a bit strange.

"Alright, alright, don't discuss this anymore. Let's wait until Secretary Xie contacts him," Gu Zhicheng urged impatiently, "Gu Ningwei, tell us about your future plans. Did you just say that the state-owned platform is interested in taking over?"

Gu Ningwei nodded.

"What are their conditions?" Gu Zhicheng pondered for a moment, tapped the table, and asked again.

Gu Ningwei glanced at Gu Zhiguang and said, "Of course, we should first clean up the family assets and recover the embezzled funds."

Before he finished speaking, everyone lowered their heads and looked at the area in front of them, their eyes on their noses and their noses on their hearts, in silence.

It's too obvious who this sentence is directed at.

Gu Zhiguang snorted, "Gu Ningwei, since you're targeting me, I'd like to ask you, what evidence do you have that I've embezzled funds from a listed company and am involved in money laundering?"

Gu Ningwei smiled. "Mr. Gu, you attended yesterday's meeting. I believe you haven't forgotten what was discussed there. What exactly is going on with those unclear and unaccounted-for funds? Shouldn't you explain to everyone? Also, shouldn't you explain your cooperation with Shunxin Company to the board of directors?"

Gu Zhiguang was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter: "Okay, okay. Gu Ningwei, you asked a good question!"

Gu Ningwei nodded slightly and smiled modestly. "I'm sorry, as a board member, I have the right to question this. After all, President Lin also said yesterday that these funds were disbursed with your approval! Then you must give everyone an explanation."

"I will give it to you if you tell me. Ask Lao Lin. He has the proof of payment, the agreement and the contract. I also have the information that cannot be made public. I, Gu Zhiguang, have a clean conscience. This is all for the benefit of Chengguang Group."

"Okay, that's good if you say so." Gu Ningwei said.

"But..." Gu Zhiguang suddenly slammed the table: "Gu Ningwei, don't you feel that you have gone too far? You are deliberately forcing the emperor to abdicate."

"The funny thing is that I, Gu Zhiguang, have worked hard and devoted all my energy for decades. Who would have thought that I would end up like this." He sneered.

Everyone else was silent, even Gu Zhicheng didn't speak.

Gu Zhiguang laughed heartily for a moment, then suddenly lowered his voice and said, "But, Gu Ningwei, when your father and I founded Chengguang Company, you were just a child with barely grown hair. Now you've grown your wings and dare to challenge me? Do you think you're so great just because you've brought in state-owned capital? Do you look down on us veterans who have conquered the world? Look at these people, Old Xie, Old Lin, your father... Which one of them hasn't contributed more to the group than you? What qualifications do you have to lecture me and ask me to give you an explanation?"

"Mr. Gu, I know you're the founder of Chengguang Group and have made invaluable contributions to its development. I've never denied that. However, explaining the whereabouts of these funds is two completely different things." Gu Ningwei spoke patiently and calmly, "Not only is Chengguang a listed company and obligated to disclose information, but you also have an obligation to explain clearly to other shareholders."

"I'll tell you!" Gu Zhiguang snorted.

Gu Ningwei looked at him, pushed the laptop aside, and waited silently.

He knew that Gu Zhiguang was gambling on how much they knew.

Gu Ningwei frowned secretly. Jiang Jin did explain clearly in the report the issue of Gu Zhiguang misappropriating the company's funds, but he did not mention several key pieces of evidence.

The biggest problem is the cooperation with Shunxin.

Jiang Jin once hinted that Shunxin was Gu Zhiguang's tool for money laundering, and the cooperation with Shunxin was far from just started as they knew.

Their cooperation had already begun a long time ago, and Shunxin was not just laundering money for Gu Zhiguang alone, there might be other people involved.

"This might be the He family," Jiang Jin analyzed.

At that time, Jiang Jin also said that this was just speculation and he had no evidence.

But after a period of investigation, Jiang Jin seemed to say at Zhening Company that day that he had evidence.

Now the evidence that can bring down Gu Zhiguang and find out the whole truth of the matter seems to be in Jiang Jin's hands.

And he disappeared.

Gu Ningwei couldn't help but feel secretly anxious.

He was deep in thought when his phone suddenly lit up. Han sent him a message: "Gu Ningli wants to call the police, but I want to go find Xie Ming. He might be able to find Jiang Jin's whereabouts. Is that okay with you?"

Gu Ningwei thought about it for a moment and simply replied OK.

Han sat on the sofa, watching Gu Ningli pacing anxiously in front of him, like an ant on a hot pan.

She herself was extremely anxious, but she managed to remain calm.

"Did my brother reply?" Gu Ningli said excitedly when she heard Han Que's phone ringing.

Han looked at Gu Ningwei's simple reply and knew that he could handle the matter with full authority.

She nodded and dialed Xie Ming's cell phone.
