This external board meeting was chaired by the current CEO of Hongsheng Electronics. Vice Chairman Gu Hui only appeared for half an hour in the first half. His secretary came in and whispered a few words to him, then he left on the pretext of something and never returned.

Without the covetous Vice Chairman Gu, the other directors became much more harmonious. After the meeting, they even had a regular dinner at the CEO's suggestion.

While waiting for the meal, almost all the directors who were familiar with Qi Nuan asked her about the stock transfer.

Qi Nuan knew that once the news of her selling stocks came out, some old guys would definitely worry that she was preparing to run away. Those involved in drug trafficking were probably even more worried that once she got out of Hongsheng Electronics, it would trigger those "party scandals."

She immediately smiled and reassured them, saying that she had only delivered part of the shares according to the conditions before joining the board of directors, and she still held the other part and was not planning to sell it.

Everyone present knew that she was a relative who was parachuted in. With this explanation, they naturally understood that she was able to join the board of directors probably in exchange for a considerable amount of stock, so no one asked any further questions.

Soon the dishes were served one after another. Qi Nuan pretended to savor the food and avoided greetings, while paying attention to the news coming from the TV on the wall of the private room.

"Hongsheng Electronics Vice Chairman Suspected of Corruption"

"The late former chairman Gu Tingze is suspected of using a borrowed account to inherit in disguised form."

"The timing of the suicide of corruption suspect Tang Yinghai is too coincidental. The case needs to be reexamined, and the relevant management personnel will be summoned by the prosecutor's office."

The successive reports of events allowed Qi Nuan to quickly grasp the current situation Gu Hui was facing.

Perhaps Lu Yin also took some actions and leaked some substantive information to "interested" units and media, making Vice Chairman Gu, who was already on the hot search, even more popular.

No matter what the final result of the re-investigation is, Gu Hui's actions during this period will become much more restricted, so he doesn't have the time to hold this insignificant business briefing with them.

Qi Nuan took a sip of soup and glanced at the TV screen, which showed a clip of the media's recent interview with Gu Hui.

Although the current top leader of Hongsheng Electronics still smiled calmly, the content of his negative answer was not so certain. People who knew the inside story could obviously hear that he was not so relaxed.

Lu Yin, his strong opponent, also received more attention because of Gu Hui's disadvantage.

The media that did this report couldn't be under the Lu family's umbrella, because every shot of Lu Yin was perfect.

Qi Nuan was secretly happy as she listened to the surrounding directors praising her handsome husband. At this moment, her cell phone vibrated.

It was a message from handsome Lu: I have some things to take care of, and will go directly to the agreed location later. I will send Zhao Yu to pick you up first, and we will meet there.

She replied with an OK expression, concentrated on eating, and left early just waiting for Special Assistant Zhao to arrive.

Not long after Qi Nuan returned home from Lu Yin's company last night, Yin Cheng called again. She told him the time and place of their meeting, but he simply said, "No problem," and quickly hung up.

Qi Nuan wondered if the things Lu Yin was dealing with were related to what Gu Hui was exposed about today. She pondered this and soon received a call from Zhao Yu.

The journey was smooth and Qi Nuan arrived at the agreed location earlier than the agreed time.

She didn't want to enter the villa again, so she asked Zhao Yu to park the car in a less conspicuous place and sit in the car waiting for Lu Yin and Yin Cheng to arrive.

But a quarter of an hour had passed since the appointed time, and there was still no sign of the two men.

Was there a mistake in yesterday's communication?

It's impossible. Even if Yin Cheng got the time wrong, Lu Yin has confirmed it.

Qi Nuan and Zhao Yu both felt something was wrong. They were about to call Lu Yin to inquire about the situation when they saw an unfamiliar black car appear on the road not far away.

Zhao Yu started the car cautiously, ready for action. Qi Nuan also stared closely at the moving light in the darkness, trying to find something strange.

The car stopped not far away, and soon the door was pushed open. The person who came out was Qi Meng!

"Why is Madam's sister here?"

Even more confused than Zhao Yu was Qi Nuan herself. She didn't remember ever revealing a single word to her sister.

Seeing her looking around after getting off the car, as if looking for something, Qi Nuan couldn't help but get off the car quickly and ran towards her sister.

"Qi Meng, what are you doing here?"

"Sister, what did you ask me to do here?"

The two sisters shouted at each other almost at the same time.

But neither of them had time to give each other an answer.

There was a loud bang, and the roar almost made Qi Nuan deaf in an instant.

She was pushed forward by the huge force from behind and fell out. As she fell, she seemed to see Special Assistant Zhao running towards her quickly to protect her, and Qi Meng who had already pounced on her and seemed to be shouting something.

The next moment, another loud explosion erupted from Gu Tingze's villa not far away, one after another. Then, flames shot up into the sky out of control, and in an instant, the entire house was engulfed in flames.

This was the last scene in Qi Nuan's memory before she passed out. When she woke up, she felt the covering covering her eyes. Her hands were also tied behind her back. Although her feet were not bound, she was not wearing shoes, and it seemed that her feet were also injured.

She was kidnapped?!

Qi Nuan smelled a strong smell of blood and felt it. It seemed that her forehead was cut by flying debris under the impact of the explosion and was bleeding.
