After listening to this, Su Yao was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "Peel off? Why should I peel off?"

Fu Chen looked at her and waited for her to continue.

"Just like how Ning Nanxue stuffed Ning's things into Fu's, why don't we just let Fu swallow Ning's whole now?" Su Yao said as a matter of course, "Didn't she want to gain a foothold in Fu's by relying on Ning's shares? Then completely pull out her roots! Let her leave the house empty-handed!"

A subtle ripple flashed across Fu Chen's eyes. He leaned forward slightly, "Miss Su, are you sure? This is very risky. While the Ning family may not be as strong as they once were, they're still quite large. Forcibly annexing them would severely damage the Fu family itself. Furthermore, the money your Su family just invested..."

"What are you afraid of?" Su Yao waved her hand nonchalantly. "As long as I can completely step on that woman Ning Nanxue and make her unable to bother me anymore, what's the risk? I can make money again if I lose it, but I can't swallow this anger! Besides, don't I still have you? President Fu, you can always handle this matter, right? "

The arrogance in her tone and her determination to target Ning Nanxue made Fu Chen understand.

"Okay." Fu Chen said only one word without further ado. He picked up the intercom and said, "Secretary Chen, notify everyone that the board meeting will be held in half an hour. Except for Chairman Ning and Mr. Wen, everyone else must be present."

After hanging up the phone, he made a gesture to Su Yao: "Miss Su, please wait a moment. The next thing requires you, the 'great hero', to come forward in person."

Su Yao raised her chin proudly: "that's natural."

Half an hour later, in the Fu Group meeting room.

Except for Ning Nanxue and Mr. Wen who has always supported her, all other directors were present.

Everyone looked at the extra seat that suddenly appeared next to the main seat, and the eldest daughter of the Su family sitting there leisurely, and they all began to wonder.

Fu Chen looked around and got straight to the point: "Everyone, I invited you all here today to introduce an important future partner of our Fu Group, Su Yao, Miss Su."

Everyone exchanged glances, some surprised, some understanding. They all knew about the Su family's investment.

"Everyone has witnessed the Su family's strong support for the Fu family this time. This funding is crucial for us to overcome the difficulties." Fu Chen paused and looked at Su Yao, "And Miss Su also brought a proposal today...about the future direction of the Fu and Ning families."

He did not directly state the annexation plan, but looked at Su Yao and motioned her to speak.

Su Yao cleared her throat and reframed what she had just said to Fu Chen in a more business-oriented language. The core message remained the same: Fu should seize this opportunity to consolidate resources and completely absorb and merge Ning's business, achieving a one plus one greater than two effect. As for Ning Nanxue's shares, there was naturally a way to "handle" them.

As soon as the words fell, the conference room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Several old directors looked at each other with complicated expressions. This eldest daughter of the Su family had such a big appetite! Was she going to help Fu Chen completely wipe out Ning Nanxue's power?

Fu Chen looked at everyone's reactions and added, "This matter is of great importance and requires long-term consideration. But I think the direction is feasible. You can consider Miss Su's proposal first."

The meeting was held in a strange atmosphere.

At this moment, Secretary Chen, who was excluded, felt very nervous.

He has followed Fu Chen for many years and knows the boss's style of doing things very well.

This is definitely not as simple as "taking the long term into account"! Fu Chen and Su Yao have joined forces, this is going to be serious! He hesitated again and again, and while going to the tea room, he quietly dialed a number.

"Mr. Wen...it's me, Xiao Chen."

"Hmm? What's the matter?" Mr. Wen's old and steady voice came from the other end of the phone.

Secretary Chen lowered his voice and quickly summarized the content of the meeting and Su Yao's proposal: "... Mr. Fu's intention is probably to completely swallow up Ning's and make Mr. Ning..."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds.

"I understand." Mr. Wen's voice was emotionless. "Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Chen. Be safe."

After hanging up the phone, Mr. Wen immediately dialed Ning Nanxue's number again.

At that time, Ning Nanxue was walking in the garden accompanied by Jiang Tingchen.

After receiving the call from Mr. Wen, the relaxed look on her face gradually disappeared.

"Master Wen..."

"Nanxue, Fu Chen has taken action." Elder Wen's voice was more serious than ever. "He has joined forces with that girl from the Su family and plans to swallow up the Ning Group and kick you out of the Fu Group's board of directors."

Ning Nanxue paused, her phone nearly falling from her hand. Jiang Tingchen, who was standing beside her, supported her and looked at her with concern.

She took a deep breath and calmed herself down: "He... convened a board meeting?"

"Except you and me, everyone went. Su Yao, that girl, was also there and proposed a plan to annex the Ning family."

Ning Nanxue closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, there was a coldness in her eyes.

"Okay, I understand, Mr. Wen." Her voice was calm. "He wants to shuffle the cards? Let's see who has the last laugh."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Tingchen held her hand: "Xue'er, what's wrong?"

Ning Nanxue looked up at him, her eyes filled with a determination she had never seen before: "Tingchen, Fu Chen is going to take action against the Ning family. He wants to uproot me."

Jiang Tingchen held her hand tightly and his face darkened.

"Su Yao...she really dares to get involved." He looked at Ning Nanxue's resolute profile, "Fu Chen wants to move Ning's, he has to ask our Hua Yuntong if we agree. In the Ning's, our Jiang family's shares are not for show."

"Yeah." Ning Nanxue responded.

"Let's go back to the old house and talk to grandpa." Jiang Tingchen didn't hesitate, supported Ning Nanxue and turned to leave.

Now that Su Yao and Fu Chen have joined forces, this matter is no longer Ning Nanxue's business alone. Since it involves the Ning family, Huayun Group cannot sit idly by.

The Fu family plus the Su family are quite powerful, so if they want to compete with Hua Yun, they have to think carefully.

The car sped all the way back to the Jiang family's old house.

The housekeeper came out to greet him: "Master, Miss Ning."

"Where's grandpa?" Jiang Tingchen asked.

"The old man is feeding the birds in the backyard. I'll go and inform him right away."

"No need, we'll go there by ourselves." Jiang Tingchen pulled Ning Nanxue and walked towards the backyard as if he was familiar with the way.

From a distance, I saw Mr. Jiang wearing a Tang suit, holding a small food jar and teasing the thrush in the cage.

Hearing the footsteps, the old man turned around and saw that it was the two of them. There was no expression of surprise on his face.

"You're back?" The old man put down the food can and clapped his hands. "You guys are in such a hurry. Is it because of the Fu family's mess?"

Jiang Tingchen and Ning Nanxue looked at each other.

"Grandpa, do you know?" Jiang Tingchen stepped forward.

"With the Fu family making such a big fuss, it's hard not to know." Old Master Jiang waved his hand, "Okay, stop standing outside, let's go into the study and talk."
