Chapter 396 A Good Show
"They don't even have time to protect themselves now. Besides, Jingzhou is here to protect me. What can happen to me?" Shu Ya's eyes were full of high spirits.
Jiang Yao looked very pleased, "It seems that you trust my second uncle now. You two have a very good relationship."
"It's okay." Shu Ya said this, but she couldn't hide the sweetness and happiness in her eyes.
Jiang Jingzhou then walked over and greeted her.
After the three of them got in the car, Jiang Yao finally couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "By the way, Second Uncle, what was that surprise you mentioned yesterday?"
Before Jiang Jingzhou could say anything, Shu Ya on the side started to probe: "Yaoyao, if I told you I want to play the female lead in 'Burning Moon', would you be willing?"
Jiang Yao opened his eyes wide in surprise and grabbed her hand, "Yaya, are you going to make a comeback?"
"Well, after considering it for a while, I think I still love acting. It just so happens that your second uncle is preparing a new script, and I like your novel very much, so I want to give it a try." Shu Ya said this with some embarrassment.
"Of course I support you. Your image is perfect for this role." Jiang Yao was happy that she was able to rediscover her dream. "But, if you continue filming, what will happen to the company? Even if you strip your stepfather and his family of their power now, there's no guarantee they won't take advantage of your absence to cause trouble."
Shu Ya's eyes flashed with a cunning gleam: "Don't worry, I will take you to see a good show this afternoon."
That afternoon, Shu Group.
At a high-level meeting.
Jiang Yao accompanied Shu Ya as an assistant.
She quickly spotted Zhuang Xian and Zhuang Yao, uncle and nephew, in the crowd. Compared to their former high spirits, they now had gloomy expressions, as if they had been suppressed for a long time and were feeling frustrated.
The meeting went smoothly at first.
Both parties were discussing project-related topics, but later on, Zhuang Yao began to lose his patience again. "Mr. Shu, I think this development project with the Xu Group should be handed over to me. I have a lot of experience in this area."
Shu Ya simply glanced at him calmly, as if announcing a certain result: "You probably don't have this opportunity."
Her attitude was very clear. Now that the senior executives had seen her abilities, they naturally wouldn't interfere with her arrangements.
"Xiao Ya, I know you are prejudiced against A Yao. He didn't handle the previous project well, but he is older and more experienced than you. Moreover, everything he did was for the future development of Shu Corporation. You should give him a chance." Zhuang Xian chimed in.
"Oh, really?" Shu Ya raised her eyebrows and said meaningfully, "Uncle Zhuang, are you sure that everything your good nephew does is for the good of our company and he has no other selfish motives?"
Zhuang Xian's eyelids twitched, and a bad premonition suddenly surged in his heart. "Of course, I brought him into the company. We are uncle and nephew. What selfish motives could he have?"
Shu Ya sneered, "I think he is not only selfish, but also very selfish. If the company project is really handed over to him, he will take it all for himself sooner or later."
Zhuang Yao suddenly stood up and slammed the table. "Shu Ya, you know you don't like me, but please don't slander me here. I have been loyal to the company all these years. What gives you the right to say that to me?"
Shu Ya didn't waste any time talking to him. She simply opened a document and projected it onto the big screen behind her.
"Here's the evidence! Over the years, you've used the power, connections, and money held by the Shu family to quietly establish a new company. It's grown steadily over the years, securing one project after another. You thought you were being very discreet, but I tell you, the net of heaven is vast and nothing can escape it. I finally discovered what you did."
Looking at the evidence on the projection, the senior executives were dumbfounded.
No matter how much they fight openly or secretly on a daily basis, at most they are just competing for company projects and shares.
But Zhuang Yao took everything from the company and started his own company.
This is too bold.
"I..." A hint of shock and guilt flashed across Zhuang Yao's eyes. He didn't expect that she had investigated to this point.
However, he was not unprepared and quickly defended himself, "Boss Shu, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. I founded the company using the funds I earned over the years and the connections I built, but I never used anything from the Shu family."
It would be very difficult to accuse him of this.
After all, there is no direct evidence to prove that he used the Shu family's funds, property or staff, nor did he touch the Shu family's secrets, so his behavior does not constitute suspected crime.
He spoke with confidence, but Jiang Yao was speechless.
How shameless!
Shu Ya seemed to have expected this. "You can deny it, but it's an indisputable fact that you're running the company behind the scenes. You've become the CEO of a company, but you still want to stay in the Shu Group. Isn't it just to gain more benefits?"
Of course.
Although the company behind him is growing stronger and stronger, it is no match for the Shu family, which is so big and powerful.
Human greed is endless.
Of course I hope to get more.
Unfortunately, now that he's been exposed, Zhuang Yao simply stopped pretending. "So, Mr. Shu wants to kick me out of the Shu family?"
"Isn't that too cheap for you?"
Shu Ya chuckled, her eyes suddenly becoming fierce. "You've been very secretive about these things, but do you think that can cover up the fact that you committed a crime? For the past two years, your company has been engaging in illegal transactions with foreign countries. I've already reported it to the police and submitted the evidence to them."
Zhuang Yao and Zhuang Xian's expressions changed drastically.
By the time you realize something is wrong, it's too late.
At that moment, the door to the conference room was flung open, and a group of uniformed police officers entered. They walked straight up to Zhuang Yao and said, "Mr. Zhuang Yao, we've received a report that you're suspected of a commercial crime. Please come back with us for investigation."
Without giving him a chance to react, the handcuffs were already on him.
He immediately panicked and asked Zhuang Xian for help: "Uncle, save me, save me——"
"Ayao, don't be afraid. I will help you find the best lawyer. I will definitely defend you and clear your name. Just believe me." Zhuang Xian vowed.
At this point, Zhuang Yao had no choice but to be taken away on the spot.
The whole audience fell silent, and everyone's eyes were filled with shock.
Only Zhuang Xian had a sinister and fierce flash in his eyes.
Damn it!
It was because he was too kind and did not get rid of Shu Ya at the beginning that Zhuang Yao was harmed.
He will definitely take revenge for this!
The murderous intent in his eyes did not escape Jiang Yao's eyes.
After leaving the meeting room, Shu Ya asked her with a smile: "How was it? Was it a good show?"
Jiang Yao's brows were filled with worry. "Yaya, I don't think your stepfather will let this go. Be careful of him playing dirty tricks!"
