His thin lips curved slightly, but his expression was cold.
Only he knew about the changes to the will.
Before this matter is leaked, Shen Zhang must be completely kicked out of the game.
As for Shen Zhiyi...
Gu Lianzhou glanced at the group of young masters and noblewomen not far away, raised his eyebrows slightly, and gently patted her shoulder, "Are you hungry?"
"Let's go get something to eat."
He pointed to the dessert table not far away, "Sit there and rest first, your brother will come to find you in a little while."
He had to make things difficult for her.
Let her know that she can only stand here by relying on him.
Shen Zhiyi felt as if he had been granted a pardon.
"Then I'll go first, brother, come over soon." She pinched the hem of his clothes, her expression dependent.
Gu Lianzhou stared at the corner of his suit and paused.
"Um."
"Go."
His tone was gentle.
His expression remained indifferent as he waited for the little white rabbit to obediently walk into the wolf pack.
Shen Zhiyi let go of her hand and walked towards the dessert table.
She caught a glimpse of an old man who had just entered through the door, a dark glint in his eyes.
She had seen him in the documents.
Zhai Shichang, the shipping magnate of Hong Kong.
A business tycoon whom even Shen Qing had to show deference to.
The Shen Group had been interested in cooperating with him, and Shen Zhang had approached him many times, but each time he was turned away.
How did he end up here?
Shen Zhiyi calmly withdrew her gaze.
Her face once again revealed the innocent, naive demeanor of a young girl.
Not long after she left, Shen Zhang launched an attack on Gu Lianzhou.
“Lianzhou, we all understand what our elder brother means. Once you have taught Zhiyi well, the Shen family will ultimately still bear the surname Shen.” He said meaningfully.
Suddenly, he saw Zhai Shichang.
His eyes lit up with surprise.
"Old Master Zhai! What brings you here?" Shen Zhang fawned as he stepped forward.
Zhai Shichang ignored him and walked up to Gu Lianzhou.
"Lianzhou, I've finally found you!"
Zhai Shichang, looking energetic, patted Gu Lianzhou on the shoulder and said, "The port integration plan you proposed last time has been unanimously approved by our board of directors!"
“These old guys were hesitant at first, but I had to take your proposal and slam my fist on the table and yell at them to wake them up.”
He waved his hand and laughed loudly, "I'll only do this business with you, Gu Lianzhou."
“I would not agree to it if any member of the Shen family were to come.”
"I've brought the contract. When is a convenient time for you to sign it?"
His words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake!
Port consolidation plan!
This is the core of Shen's Group's strategy for the next ten years, involving tens of billions of yuan.
So many people are scrambling to get a piece of the pie.
Zhai Shichang actually chased after Gu Lianzhou to the banquet, specifically naming him!
The deeper meaning behind this is self-evident.
Shen Zhang's smile froze completely.
His face turned from red to green.
Seeing his embarrassment, Gu Lianzhou smiled respectfully at Zhai Shichang, his thin lips curving slightly, "Thanks to Elder Zhai, this deal was made possible."
"If it's convenient for you, would you like to sign now?"
He glanced at Chen Zhang casually, "Second Uncle, want to join us? Help us take a picture?"
Shen Zhang gritted his teeth and forced a smile.
"Lianzhou, you're really capable; you even managed to get Elder Zhai to come."
"I'm not good at taking photos, you should find someone more capable."
He gave a forced smile, and his hand holding the wine glass was almost white.
This Gu Lianzhou actually insulted him outright!
It was a veiled criticism that he couldn't sign contracts and could only do trivial things like taking photos!
"Hey! Let my assistant take the picture!" Zhai Shichang patted Gu Lianzhou on the shoulder, and the two chatted and laughed as they walked into a corner.
In the distance, Shen Zhiyi ate a small cake while taking in all the commotion.
As expected, Zhai Shichang was specially invited by Gu Lianzhou to humiliate Shen Zhang.
He wanted to use this to confirm his business standing.
It seems she guessed correctly.
Even if Gu Lianzhou doesn't have the surname Shen, his abilities are undeniable, and he won't easily step down from the table.
"Are you Shen Zhiyi?" A female voice suddenly rang out.
Shen Zhiyi looked up at the wealthy young lady in front of her.
"Who are you?"
"You don't even know her?" said another girl next to the rich girl. "If you hadn't suddenly come back from the countryside, Minmin and Brother Lianzhou might already be engaged."
"It's all your fault, you ruined their marriage."
