Chapter 9: Forcing a Position
Shen Minghua breathed a sigh of relief.
At least the anger in her heart was not so great.
She hugged Shu Yue and lowered her head to check on Shu Yue's condition.
Seeing that Shu Yue was indeed fine, Shen Minghua breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as the child is fine.
Ever since the incident during childbirth, she was particularly afraid that something would happen to her daughter again.
"Wife, I took Yueyue to the western suburbs, and the fish could not help but be hooked. I took my daughter to collect the net today." Shu Guorong saw that Shen Minghua was not so angry anymore, so he talked about the matter of the western suburbs to divert her attention.
"You don't need to tell me about these things of yours." Shen Minghua said, "If you can't handle this little thing well, it's useless."
"Yes, yes, everything my lady said is true."
Shu Guorong nodded and acknowledged, and still told her about the incident in the western suburbs, "The man was caught and handed over to the police, but a reporter was found nearby, probably found by Yang Cheng. This matter will probably be on the news tomorrow. When you see it tomorrow, don't worry about it. Who knows what they will write."
"Yes." Shen Minghua agreed.
"Wife."
Shu Guorong moved forward.
Before his hand touched Shen Minghua's hand, Shen Minghua slapped him in the face with a pillow.
"Go to another room to sleep tonight."
"Wife..."
It seems that this is to punish him not to go back to sleep.
"Then when can I move back?"
"You will sleep outside for the rest of your life!"
Shen Minghua glared at him.
"Wife, don't." Shu Guorong cried and tried to grab Shen Minghua's hand.
Shen Minghua slapped her hand away.
She pulled the quilt over herself and her daughter, turned over and left her back to Shu Guorong.
"Go to another room. I'm sleepy and need to go to bed. Don't disturb me and my daughter here."
Shu Guorong opened his mouth to say something, but was afraid that he would really delay Shen Minghua's rest.
She had not slept well in the past few nights. Tonight, in order to wait for him, she had waited until this time. If she continued to wait, he was afraid that her body would not be able to bear it.
Shu Guorong tucked the quilt for Shen Minghua, got up and went out.
Shu Guorong slept in the second bedroom for a night.
The next day, the news that someone had died in the Shu family's western suburbs project was everywhere on the Internet and spread among people.
In just one morning, today's big news became a big deal.
Yang Cheng slept at his mistress's house for a night, and as expected, he saw the headlines of the Shu family on the Internet the next day.
He smoked a cigarette in a good mood and asked his mistress to help him put on his suit.
"Leaving so early today, I haven't slept enough." The mistress yawned and said coquettishly in a soft tone.
Yang Cheng snorted and laughed, "What do you know? I have to do something big today. Soon, your husband, I will be the new CEO of the Shu family. You just wait and enjoy the good life together."
"Is it true?" The mistress' eyes lit up.
She hugged Yang Cheng's neck, kissed Yang Cheng on the mouth, and said flatteringly: "Husband, I'm waiting for your good news."
Yang Cheng patted her butt and left her house with a smile.
After leaving his mistress's house, Yang Cheng went to the Shu Group building and held a shareholders' meeting.
The screen behind him played the news that broke out last night - a murder occurred in the Shu Group's Xijiao project, suspected to be because the Shu Group maliciously withheld wages, forcing migrant workers to death. The evil capitalist, Shu Guorong, must come out to explain. If the Shu Group does not give a reasonable explanation, this matter will not end!
Yang Cheng looked worried, "The group's stocks have been falling since last night. When we found out, the whole network was already full of it. It was too late to deal with it."
"Yang Cheng, you have always been in charge of the project in the western suburbs. Now that something has happened, shouldn't you explain it first?" asked one of the shareholders.
Yang Cheng sighed, "Uncle Zhao, you are right. I have always been in charge of the project in Xijiao. Logically, I am to blame for such a big incident. But this morning, someone who lived in the same dormitory as the worker who jumped from the building found a suicide note under his pillow, saying that it was Mr. Shu who forced him to death."
Yang Cheng looked at Mr. Zhao, "Uncle Zhao, how do you want me to deal with this situation? If I don't hide it from everyone, it was too late when I found this suicide note. A reporter had already taken a photo of the content of the suicide note. If I hadn't paid the other party a hush money, the headlines would have been about this suicide note pointing directly at Mr. Shu. By then, our group's stock would have plummeted."
"The most important thing right now is to come up with a countermeasure." Yang Cheng said, "Although I have suppressed the news, I cannot guarantee that only this newspaper has the deceased's suicide note. I can suppress it for a while, but not forever. When the news breaks out, what we should think about most is how to deal with it." "
Since the matter is related to Director Shu, of course Director Shu should come out to solve the problem." A shareholder slammed the table and said loudly.
He exchanged glances with Yang Cheng.
This person was a pawn arranged by Yang Cheng among the shareholders, just to make the spearhead of this shareholders' meeting directly point to Shu Guorong.
Today he must pull Shu Guorong down from this position.
"It doesn't make sense that Director Shu hides behind and does nothing when the matter is so serious, right?" the man said again.
Yang Cheng spoke at the right time, "I am in charge of the Xijiao project. Don't I know better whether the thing that person said happened? But then again, since this matter involves President Shu, it is better for President Shu to come forward."
"President Shu is my uncle. Personally speaking, I don't want to do this, but this is the only way at the moment."
"You mean..." President Zhao, who had just spoken, said again, "Let President Shu step down?" "
Only temporarily." Yang Cheng said, "Wait until the people's emotions calm down, and the matter is investigated clearly, then let President Shu come back. Does President Zhao have a better way than this? The stock price is falling day by day, and it is related to the interests of the company. If President Zhao has a better way, he can put it forward, so as not to let people think that I have ulterior motives."
President Zhao, who was accused of having ulterior motives, opened his mouth, but was choked back.
Yang Cheng clearly has ulterior motives!
"I think this is a good idea." Someone chimed in, "It's not like we're asking Mr. Shu to step down. It's just a temporary, emergency public relations measure. Otherwise, how can we just sit there and watch the stock price drop? That's everyone's money! I agree with what Yang Cheng said. When Mr. Shu arrives, we'll tell him this."
Several other shareholders joined in.
The shareholder who supported Shu Guorong wanted to say something, but was blocked by the crowd.
"What?"
At this time, a deep voice came from behind the door.
Yang Cheng and several shareholders who agreed were silent.
They all recognized the voice as Shu Guorong's.
Sure enough, the door was opened and Shu Guorong stood behind it.
He was holding a baby in his arms, his movements were gentle, but his expression was gloomy. His sharp eyes swept across everyone in the conference room, and the corners of his lips were curled with a smile that could not be distinguished from joy or anger, "Let me hear it, what do you want to tell me?"
