Chapter 242 Elopement, Third Brother, what grudge do you have against me?
"Don't worry, Chairman, we all know what to do."
As soon as Gu Huaikun said this, everyone understood what he meant. Although A Xin was the acting chairman, the ownership of the group was still in Gu Huaikun's hands. They all knew what to do to ensure their own interests.
"Alright, that puts my mind at ease." Gu Huaikun turned and nodded to Fu Ya, then smiled at all the shareholders. "Now that things here are settled, I'll head back. You can all follow President Fu's instructions from now on."
After watching Gu Huaikun leave, Fu Ya placed his hands on the table, looked down at all the shareholders present, and suddenly smiled.
"I don't know much about the group, so I won't boast about it here. Everyone, go back and prepare, organize the materials for your respective departments, and send them to the president's office later, is that alright?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Fu, we'll send it over in a bit."
Compared to A Xin's pride, these shareholders preferred Fu Ya, a gentle and unassuming young man.
"Alright, thank you for your help!"
After Fu Ya finished speaking, he turned around and strode out of the conference room, and led by his assistant to the newly decorated president's office.
"Okay, you can go ahead and do your work. I can manage on my own."
Once inside, Fu Ya immediately stood at the door to block his assistant from following him in. His smile was exceptionally charming. The young assistant blushed and turned back to her seat without saying a word.
Fu Ya quickly took out his phone, sat down, and called Fu Heng.
"President Fu, how's it going? How's it going to feel to take office as a new leader?"
"You scared me to death, you know? My heart is still racing!"
Fu Ya patted his wildly beating heart; his little heart really couldn't take such a shock!
You'll get used to it!
"Third Brother, why don't you let me go back to school? I think the days of studying are much more comfortable!"
"Even if you've read ten thousand books, what good is it? You still need an opportunity to put it into practice. It's a good time for you to put all that knowledge into practice."
Fu Heng's words were casual, but they sent ripples through Fu Ya's mind. "Putting in the practical application of your knowledge, brother, is it really a good idea to do an internship at the Gu family's group, the most powerful family in Xiangcheng? Aren't you afraid that those old foxes will devour me without leaving even a bone fragment?" He kept muttering to himself, his expression serious.
"Third Brother, do you really hate me? Or is the Fu Group no longer able to tolerate someone as insignificant as me?"
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Do you really think it's appropriate for me to intern at Gu's Group? This is Gu's Group, not some small company under our family! How about... how about you send me on a 24/7 internship? I don't need to be the president or manager, just let me be a sales clerk, okay? If that's not possible, security guard or cleaner will do!"
Fu Ya was going crazy. He was still a little scared when he thought about what happened in the conference room. He really had a good brother who was a pain in the neck!
"Calm down, I'm still here. I don't trust anyone else. You know, Cai Feng's influence has already reached into the Gu family. Anyone else could be bought off by him and A Xin. Only you and I trust you!"
"Damn it, we're brothers, okay? If you can't even trust your own brothers, who else do you trust?"
"Since you've said that, then get back to work. I need to rest now, so I won't bother you anymore."
"Hey, Third Brother, Third Brother, what should I do!"
Unfortunately, Fu Heng had already hung up the phone decisively after saying he wouldn't disturb his work, completely disregarding the anxious CEO on the other end.
"Ugh, what a brother he is, ruining his younger brother's life! My life is so miserable!"
Fu Ya lay on the table, sighing repeatedly, his face contorted in pain. He knew that offending his third brother would never end well!
I thought he let me go home because he had a change of heart and didn't want me to suffer the pain of studying anymore. I never imagined that an even greater torment was waiting for me!
"Mr. Fu, the documents you requested have arrived. May I come in?"
"Come in."
Fu Ya immediately sat up straight, straightened his clothes, and his handsome face once again displayed an elegant smile.
"Mr. Fu, these are the documents sent by all the shareholders."
After glancing at Fu Yafeng's flirtatious and ambiguous smile, the assistant blushed with embarrassment, put down the documents, and fled his office as if escaping.
Looking at the mountain of documents on his desk, Fu Ya felt a headache coming on. Just how powerful was he to say he wanted to see the documents from each department? Wasn't he just digging his own grave?
Bang……
Ah Xin slammed the door shut as she entered the office, making a loud bang. The employees outside glanced at the closed door, then immediately went back to their work.
"I really regret not making that old geezer sign the property transfer agreement! Now Fu Ya has inexplicably gotten involved, it's infuriating!"
Ah Xin sat on the sofa, holding her phone and complaining to Cai Feng about what happened at the shareholders' meeting today.
"Gu Huaikun is an old fox after all. It's not a pity that you, still young, lost to him."
Cai Feng sneered. He never expected that this old guy would actually hire Fu Ya to manage the Gu family's business. It seems that he really wants to leave A Xin no way out!
Fu Ya is backed by the Fu family, and the person controlling the Fu family is Fu Heng. Obviously, the Gu family and the Fu family have reached an agreement to some extent, and the most likely scenario is that the Fu family chose to help the Gu family in order to deal with him.
If Fu Heng knew Cai Feng's thoughts, he would definitely give him a gentle and elegant smile, and then tell him in a very ruthless way.
At your age, don't you feel ashamed to be so presumptuous? They only partnered with the Gu family to deal with you. If the Fu family really wanted to get rid of you, would you still be able to stand still? This is Xiangcheng, Fu family territory. You're really getting cocky just because you're fat!
"What do you think we should do now? That old geezer now knows he's addicted to drugs, so controlling him won't be as easy as it used to be!"
"What's your rush? No matter what, you're the chairman of the Fu Group now. Even if Fu Ya were to become the CEO, you could still develop your own power base, couldn't you?"
"You think it's so easy? That old geezer wants me to go to school and pursue further education, ostensibly so that I can more easily control the Gu Group in the future! I know him perfectly well; isn't this just blatantly trying to kick me out of the group?"
Ah Xin's tone was filled with strong dissatisfaction. She really didn't know that Gu Huaikun was so wary of her, and even after becoming addicted to drugs, he still didn't forget to scheme against her like this.
But how could she not think that if she hadn't schemed against him first, Ah Xin would still be the carefree second young lady of the Gu family, and might even have gradually gained Gu Huaikun's favor?
However, everyone has their own obsession. For example, Gu Mingxia's obsession is to find out whether Nan Lan is dead or not and the truth about A Dong's death back then. A Xin's obsession is to avenge Bai Hua. Even if she can't kill Gu Mingxia and Gu Huaikun, she should at least make them wish they were dead!
"Forget it, I'm not talking to you anymore. Let's hang up. I'll go to the old house when I have time to talk to those old fogies. We're all in the same boat now, and no one has a chance to get out of this mess."
"Okay, are you coming over tonight?"
"I'm not going, I'm not in the mood!"
In a small villa in the suburbs, Gu Mingxia sat in front of the easel, picked up a paintbrush, dipped it in oil paint, and slowly painted the painting that A Dong had not finished years ago.
That was the happiness that A-Dong wanted to see, and it was also Gu Mingxia's long-held dream. It just hadn't come true before, it hadn't come true now, and it would probably be even less likely to come true in the future!
As she traced Xiao Yan's face, Gu Mingxia smiled gently, leaving Song Jia, who stood beside her, almost speechless.
He had seen many beautiful women, but none of them were as attractive as Gu Mingxia, especially her peaceful, gentle, and serene demeanor now.
"Goddess, you still care about President Xiao, don't you?"
As soon as he asked the question, Song Jia slapped himself hard across the face. He knew Gu Mingxia didn't want to talk about Xiao Yan, but he still insisted on bringing it up. Why was he so disliked?
"It's alright." Gu Mingxia smiled at Song Jia after seeing his actions, and continued drawing Xiao Yan's portrait. "After all, we have a relationship. It would be a lie to say that I don't care about him. But caring and forgiving are two different things, you know? I can care about him, miss him, and even love him, but I can't forgive him. We... can't go back."
"But goddess, wouldn't it be too pitiful for the child to be born without a father?"
“There are so many pitiful things in the world. It’s not that he doesn’t have a father, it’s just that his father won’t be there to help him grow up. If he can’t even handle this little setback, then what right does he have to be my daughter, Gu Mingxia?”
Gu Mingxia was never a weak person, so when Song Jia said these things, she showed no displeasure whatsoever and simply continued painting quietly.
"So... we're really not going to tell Zheng Liu and the others about our presence here?"
"There's no need to say anything. Let me calm down first, then we'll talk about it."
If Zheng Liu is told, Liu Yan will definitely find out, and once Liu Yan finds out, given her composure, Xiao Yan will find out soon.
"Okay, then you can take your time drawing. I'll go practice in the yard."
Goddess, are you sure Xiao Yan won't get pregnant if you live here with me? Are we eloping? Everyone knows how I feel about you!
If you and Xiao Yan reconcile one day, I'll definitely be the one who suffers. So train hard now, and you'll be more resilient even if you get beaten up later, right?
"Okay, but remember, you absolutely cannot let Zheng Liu and the others know where we are, and don't turn your phone on."
"Okay." Song Jia frowned as he walked out. "Goddess, are you sure the others won't suspect that I eloped with you?"
