Ning Nanxue pondered for a moment and said, "Have you told Fu Chen about this?"
"No." Secretary Chen shook his head. "Mr. Fu has complete faith in Miss Xu. He won't believe anything I say. Besides, I'm afraid of alerting the enemy, which would be disadvantageous to us."
"You did the right thing." Ning Nanxue nodded. "Don't tell anyone about this for now, including Fu Chen. I will investigate it myself."
"But, President Ning, how do you plan to investigate?" Secretary Chen asked. "Miss Xu is President Fu's treasure now. If you touch her, President Fu will definitely not let it go."
"Don't worry, I know my limits." Ning Nanxue sneered, "Doesn't Xu Zhiru like acting? Then I'll act out a good one with her."
Ning Nanxue began to secretly investigate Xu Zhiru's medical records, contacted her attending physician, and soon obtained some key information.
"Ms. Ning, all the information you requested is here." Xu Zhiru's attending physician handed a document to Ning Nanxue. "Ms. Xu's depression is indeed somewhat strange."
Ning Nanxue took the document and read it carefully. Her brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and her expression became uglier and uglier.
"This Xu Zhiru is really faking illness!" Ning Nanxue closed the file, a flash of anger in her eyes, "She actually took advantage of Fu Chen's sympathy and played him into her hands!"
"Ms. Ning, what are you going to do?" the attending physician asked. "Should we tell Mr. Fu about this evidence?"
"No, it's not the right time yet." Ning Nanxue said, "I want Xu Zhiru to reveal her true colors herself."
Ning Nanxue decided to take advantage of the situation. She deliberately spread the word that she had some negative information about Fu Chen and was going to announce it at the Fu Group's shareholders' meeting.
The news soon reached Fu Chen's ears, and he immediately found Ning Nanxue.
"Ning Nanxue, what on earth do you want to do?" Fu Chen asked angrily, "Are you really going to force me into a dead end?"
"Pushing you into a desperate situation?" Ning Nanxue sneered, "Fu Chen, what you said is really interesting. Who pushed who into a desperate situation? Back then, how did you treat me for Xu Zhiru? Have you forgotten?"
"I..." Fu Chen was speechless for a moment. He didn't expect Ning Nanxue to bring up the past again.
"What? You have nothing to say?" Ning Nanxue pressed on, "Fu Chen, I'm telling you, I came back this time to make you pay the price! I want you to taste what it feels like to lose everything!"
"Don't go too far!" Fu Chen gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think you can bring me down just because you have some so-called black material? You are too naive!"
"Really? Then give it a try." Ning Nanxue fought back without showing any weakness, "Fu Chen, you'd better pray that you haven't done anything shameful, otherwise, I will definitely bring your reputation to ruin!"
Xu Zhiru, who was hiding in the dark, heard their conversation clearly. She realized that Fu Chen still had feelings for Ning Nanxue, and she became even more jealous.
"Ning Nanxue, you bitch!" Xu Zhiru cursed in her heart, "How dare you seduce Ah Chen? I will never let you go!"
Xu Zhiru decided to strike first. She secretly contacted the media, preparing to expose the relationship between Ning Nanxue and Manager Song and falsely accuse them of having improper transactions.
"Hello, is this Reporter Wang? I have some big news here, do you want to hear it?" Xu Zhiru said in a low voice, "It's about Ning Nanxue and Manager Song..."
Ning Nanxue soon noticed Xu Zhiru's actions. She knew that Xu Zhiru was desperate and was about to take extreme measures.
"Manager Song, it looks like we need to move up our plans." Ning Nanxue called Manager Song. "Xu Zhiru has already taken action. She's contacted the media and is planning to expose our relationship."
"Oh? Really?" Manager Song's voice didn't sound surprised. "This woman is really impatient."
"What should we do now?" Ning Nanxue asked, "Should we stop her?"
"No need." Manager Song said, "Let her make a fuss. The bigger the better. Only in this way can Fu Chen see her true face thoroughly."
"But if she really exposes our relationship, it will have a huge impact on our reputation." Ning Nanxue was still a little worried.
"Don't worry, I have a way to deal with it." Manager Song said, "You just need to cooperate with me."
"Okay, I believe you." Ning Nanxue said, "What do you need me to do?"
"You don't need to do anything, just wait and see." Manager Song said, "Leave the rest to me."
The day of the shareholders' meeting was approaching, and Fu Chen was extremely nervous. He didn't know how much negative information Ning Nanxue had, nor did he know what surprising move she would make at the shareholders' meeting.
"Ah Chen, don't worry." Xu Zhiru comforted him, "I've already made arrangements. If Ning Nanxue dares to mess around, I'll ruin her reputation!"
"I hope so." Fu Chen sighed, "I hope we can get through this safely."
The shareholders' meeting was held as scheduled, and the Fu Group's conference room was packed. Fu Chen sat on the podium, presiding over the meeting with forced composure.
"Dear shareholders, I've called you all here today mainly to have you work with me to find a solution," Fu Chen's voice was a little hoarse. "I know the company has encountered some difficulties recently, and the stock price has fluctuated a bit."
"We are all directors of the company. If the company gets into trouble, none of us can escape responsibility."
However, his words were not recognized by shareholders.
They were whispering and talking to each other, their faces full of doubt and anxiety.
"Mr. Fu, that's easy for you to say," a shareholder said, standing up. "But the company's stock price has plummeted so much, and it seems like your few words won't change anything. We need a concrete strategy!"
"Yes, Mr. Fu," another shareholder echoed, "the decisions you made before were truly too risky. Now that the company is in such a serious crisis, you must give us an explanation!"
Faced with the shareholders' questions, Fu Chen felt a headache.
He didn't expect that the shareholders would distrust him so much.
"Everyone, please rest assured." Fu Chen said calmly, "I have developed a detailed plan that will definitely lead the company out of this predicament. Moreover, I am personally willing to give up my shares as compensation for your losses."
However, his words had no effect. Shareholders did not believe his promises and were more concerned about their own interests.
Just then, the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open and Ning Nanxue walked in.
"Ning Nanxue? Why are you here?" Fu Chen asked in surprise.
