He rolled and howled on the ground in a sorry state, Li Zhanting's shiny black leather shoes falling on his fingers like a bone crusher.
The sound of Li Mingde's finger bones shattering echoed through the office, followed by his heart-wrenching screams of despair, sending chills down the spines of everyone present...
Despite the cruel scene, Li Zhanting appeared as noble and elegant as a young nobleman who had stepped out of a medieval portrait.
He gracefully took out a handkerchief and gently wiped his fingers, a chilling smile playing on his lips. "Anyone who wants to speak up for him again, why don't you give it a try?"
He was clearly smiling, but that smile was like a demon crawling out of hell, making people shudder.
The board members who opposed the move swallowed hard. Li Zhanting was not just teaching Li Mingde a lesson; he was clearly giving them all a warning!
Seeing the clear fear and dread flash across their eyes, Li Zhanting gave a cold, mocking laugh:
"Guards! Take them all away and lock them up!"
"yes!"
Li Zhanting's men quickly took Li Mingde and Li Qinghao away, and the entire Li Group was soon occupied by Li Zhanting's men.
Over the next few days, Li Zhanting shifted his focus almost entirely to reorganizing the Li Group.
He spent a lot of time digging out Li Mingde's supporters, and without exception, he transferred all the evidence he collected to the Li Group for public processing. This not only made those supporters accept their defeat but also dealt a blow to those who intended to harm the Li Group.
In addition, all assets under Li Mingde and Li Qinghao were confiscated, and the departments they once managed were all transferred to Li Zhanting, who personally took charge, thus transferring all power of the Li Group to his own hands.
In just a few days, the Li Group's stock price rose again, reaching its peak in the past three years.
In the Rong family courtyard.
Gu Momo, dressed in a black and purple chiffon butterfly dress, reclined languidly on a soft chair woven from grapevines.
While leisurely rocking back and forth in her soft chair, playing on her phone, she contentedly ate the grapes Gu Jingxing had given her, a knowing smile involuntarily playing on her lips.
She wondered why Li Zhanting hadn't bothered her these past few days; it turned out he was busy with Li family matters.
Looking at his mother's leisurely and contented expression, Gu Jingxing couldn't help but pout. "Mommy, stop focusing on eating. Now that our younger siblings have been found, when are we finally going to leave the capital?"
Did Mommy come to Beijing in the first place just to find a younger brother or sister?
He just couldn't understand why Mommy hadn't left yet. Could it be that she had really fallen for that scumbag dad?
Gu Momo rolled over and sat up, chuckling as she stuffed a few grapes into Gu Jingxing's mouth. "You brat, how many times have I told you? Only Tianbao is your sister. Zixiao and Ling'er are your older brothers and sisters. What do you mean by 'your younger brothers and sisters'?"
Gu Jingxing's cheeks were bulging from being stuffed, and he mumbled as he chewed on grapes:
"No, I have to protect them. I am the older brother! So, Mommy, when are we leaving the capital?"
Just as Gu Momo was about to say something, her phone suddenly rang. She picked it up and glanced at it, a playful smile playing on her lips.
Wow, Gu Shanshan actually decided to call her?
She was just worried about not having a chance to find Gu Shanshan!
She answered the phone, a half-smile on her face, and said, "What, didn't you say you'd make me lose miserably in the Jenners Jewelry Design Competition? Why are you calling me now? You're not thinking of withdrawing from the competition, are you? Hmm?"
On the other end of the phone, Gu Shanshan heard Gu Momo's words and her eyes blazed with hatred.
That bitch, she still has such a sharp tongue!
However, Dong Qingrun kept giving her meaningful glances, and Gu Shanshan, thinking of his and the Gu family's plans, quickly lost the sinister calculation in her eyes, replaced by a sweet and charming smile:
"Sister, you misunderstood me. I was just thinking that the jewelry competition finals are the day after tomorrow, right? I'm sure you've already received your invitation, so I wanted to invite you to come and visit us. It's been a long time since our family has been together."
"Just visiting?" Gu Momo's mocking smile was chillingly cold.
This family is still so ungrateful!
Since they insist on heading straight for hell, why not just give the Gu family a big gift?
Her eyes sparkled with a captivating smile. "Alright, then you'd better prepare dinner tonight. I'll definitely be there on time."
On the other end of the phone, Gu Shanshan and her mother, Dong Qingrun, exchanged a glance, trying hard to suppress the excitement in their voices:
"Okay, sister! Don't worry, sister, just come over tonight, I'll make sure everything is prepared for you!"
The call ended quickly. Gu Momo lazily climbed down from the grapevine and started to walk away.
"Jingxing, be good. Mommy has some things to take care of and will be back later tonight!"
Her long, flowing dress, made of light gauze, fluttered in the air like butterfly wings. She walked with the speed of the wind, and a hint of cunning flashed in Gu Jingxing's bright black eyes.
Gu Shanshan is going to participate in the finals of the Zhennas Jewelry Design Competition?
So Mommy will definitely go too?!
His mischievous eyes darted around, and he must have come up with some wicked idea. He quickly turned and ran towards his room.
Since the Gu family wants to fight to the death with Mommy, then he'll show them what it means to mess with the wrong person!
Gu Momo went to her room to change her clothes and then immediately drove to the Gu family home.
Originally, on the way to the Gu family, the road was severely blocked due to a traffic accident, so Gu Momo had to take a slightly longer route.
