Chapter 538 The Reporter, Ding Ali
“When Guo Yuyue left, we should have done everything possible to keep her!” Gu Changle looked at Shao Tianze and said.
Shao Tianze couldn’t do anything, “It’s no use saying anything now. She has left the company for so long.”
Gu Changle stopped talking, just twisted her eyebrows, and secretly sought a solution in her heart.
After thinking for a long time, she asked Shao Tianze, “Can I go in during the second half of the meeting?”
Shao Tianze looked at her and said, “Gu Changge didn’t give you anything before she died. Logically, you are not eligible to partic.i.p.ate in the meeting.”
Hearing what Shao Tianze said, Gu Changle pouted in dissatisfaction and said coquettishly, “You are now the most powerful member on the board. Wouldn’t it be easy to add one more person to attend the meeting?”
Shao Tianze lowered his eyes and said nothing as if thinking.
Seeing that Shao Tianze couldn’t decide in a short while, Gu Changle reached out to hold his arm and shook it gently, “OK? OK? Tianze, let me go in and watch the meeting. I want to see which b.a.s.t.a.r.d votes you down.”
Shao Tianze couldn’t resist Gu Changle’s coquettish begging. After his arm was shaken for a while, he nodded, “OK.”
Seeing Shao Tianze nodded in agreement, Gu Changle said to him happily, “Thank you, Tianze. I know you treat me the best. You are not like my dead elder sister, who never allowed me to touch Gu’s any affairs.”
Shao Tianze was not in the mood to listen to Gu Changle’s nonsense. What appeared in his mind was the woman who entered the wrong bathroom just now.
What did he see in the mirror? Was it a human or a ghost?
After Gu Changle called him to the lounge and rested for dozens of minutes, Shao Tianze returned to the conference room in the second half of the meeting.
As soon as she entered the meeting room, Gu Changle found Su Mier.
Gu Changle couldn’t help but frown and asked Shao Tianze, “Why is she here?”
“Guo Yuyue sold her shares to Su Mier’s boss.”
Gu Changle was shocked by this sentence.
Gu Changle’s gaze at Su Mier became more vicious.
The b.i.t.c.h voted against Shao Tianze.
Seeing Gu Changle’s vicious eyes, Su Mier smiled.
She was not afraid at all.
At the beginning of the second half of the meeting, people found an extra chair beside Shao Tianze. And Gu Changle sat on that chair.
An elderly board member frowned but did not speak.
However, one middle-aged board member could not agree with the current situation. He asked Shao Tianze, “Chairman Shao, why did you let someone who has nothing to do with this meeting into the conference room?”
Gu Changle glanced at the talking board member and looked at her new nail manicure indifferently.
Obviously, Gu Changle didn’t care about the senior board member.
The director was furious when he saw Gu Changle’s contempt. He stared and continued, “I remember Chairman Gu didn’t give her shares to Miss Gu Changle before she pa.s.sed away.”
“My sister was afraid that I would be overwhelmed, so she temporarily gave my shares to my brother-in-law and asked him to keep them for me. Soon, my brother-in-law will give me shares. I listen to the meeting in advance. What are you fussing about?”
Gu Changle said rudely.
The director was frustrated and angry at Gu Changle’s words.
Su Mier couldn’t help but sneer after hearing those words, thinking that Gu Changle became more provocative with Shao Tianze.
Shao Tianze also realized that Gu Changle’s words were too excessive and said softly, “Changle, enough is enough.”
Shao Tianze’s petting tone made Gu Changle’s smile bigger.
The directors present were dissatisfied with Gu Changle’s entry into the meeting room. After hearing Shao Tianze’s petting words to Gu Changle, they couldn’t help but think of the rumors spreading in Yuncheng.
One board member couldn’t stand it and said, “Miss Gu Changle is not suitable to be present.”
Facing the board member’s direct protest, Shao Tianze had to say, “Changle will attend the board meeting sooner or later. It’s OK to let her get acquainted in advance. Let’s continue the meeting.”
After hearing what Shao Tianze said, the directors were still unwilling to accept Gu Changle. They wanted to say something more.
However, Su Mier spoke before they could.
“Since Chairman Shao said that Miss Gu would come to the board meetings in the future, Miss Gu should stay. After all, everyone knows the relations.h.i.+p between Chairman Shao and Miss Gu.”
Su Mier’s words made Shao Tianze clench his hands.
Shao Tianze knew about the scandal circulating in Yuncheng. Many people were gossiping that he and Gu Changle were together, and their relations.h.i.+p was not simple.
However, no one had mentioned those rumors before him.
Now, Su Mier said it in public, making everyone think and gossip.
After Gu Changle heard what Su Mier said, she felt the strange gaze of the directors.
One director even sighed and whispered, “Shameless. Seducing your brother-in-law…”
The volume of that sentence was minimal. People couldn’t tell whose voice was.
However, many heard it.
Gu Changle’s face was a picture, and she was so angry that she felt uncomfortable after hearing the sentence.
She smacked her hand down on to the table and asked Su Mier aggressively, “Su Mier, what do you mean?”
After Gu Changle’s aggressive question, Su Mier said nonchalantly, “You know what I mean in your heart, don’t you?”
“You are slandering me!”
Su Mier said puzzledly, “What did I say? Aren’t you and Chairman Shao brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Miss Gu?”
Gu Changle couldn’t refute and suddenly stopped talking.
Gu Changle was sensitive and jealous. Su Mier’s unclear words were publicly accusing her of an improper relations.h.i.+p with Shao Tianze.
However, Su Mier responded to Gu Changle’s question well.
Gu Changle could not comment on the fact that she and Shao Tianze were the sister-in-law and brother-in-law on the surface.
Shao Tianze realized that Gu Changle had entered Su Mier’s deliberate language trap. He smiled coldly and glanced at Su Mier. Then, he said to Gu Changle, “Changle, sit down. Don’t talk during the meeting.”
Shao Tianze comforted Gu Changle, but Gu Changle was still irritated and unable to calm down.
Su Mier embarra.s.sed her in public, which made her hate Su Mier more.
She would definitely retaliate against Su Mier in the future.
Su Mier’s language trap against Gu Changle made the directors comfortable.
Seeing how shrewd Su Mier was, Gu Changle didn’t interrupt in the second half of the meeting. She only coldly glared at Su Mier.
Su Mier ignored Gu Changle.
The atmosphere had already got embarra.s.sing after whether Shao Tianze was appointed as the board chairman in the first half of the meeting.
Shao Tianze allowed Gu Changle to attend the second half of the meeting.
That caused more dissatisfaction among the directors.
Finally, not everyone voted for Shao Tianze to become the chairman of the board.
They made Shao Tianze the interim chairman.
They would vote again in the future.
The meeting lasted from morning to three in the afternoon.
Their lunch was very simple.
Gu Changle had always been spoiled.
After the long meeting, Gu Changle took Shao Tianze’s arm as soon as she left the meeting room. Ignoring other people, she teasingly and tenderly said to Shao Tianze, “Tianze, let’s have dinner.”
The directors who walked out of the meeting room with them couldn’t help but frown at this scene.
Su Mier had successfully completed the task and didn’t care about the real-life of Gu Changle and Shao Tianze.
Su Mier walked out of the office building and drove away directly.
After leaving the meeting room, Shao Tianze ordered his a.s.sistant to take Gu Changle to the restaurant. He told Gu Changle that he would come in a while.
Gu Changle was very hungry. Therefore, she did not pester Shao Tianze to have a meal with her.
Gu Changle followed the a.s.sistant to the restaurant first.
Shao Tianze called his bodyguard and asked him to track Su Mier’s car.
Since Su Mier was entrusted by her boss to attend the meeting, she should report to her boss after the meeting.
As long as Shao Tianze sent someone to follow Su Mier, he would know who her boss was.
After arranging those, he was leaving the Shao enterprise’s office building.
However, many reporters were waiting in front of the office building. When he went out, bodyguards protected him.
After walking a few steps, Shao Tianze suddenly caught a glimpse of a girl holding a microphone and wearing a white dress. She wanted to squeeze out the crowd to interview Shao Tianze.
He had no intention to be interviewed at the entrance of the office building. However, he saw the girl in a white dress.
He stopped uncontrollably.
He stood in place, waiting for the woman to squeeze hard to his side from the crowd.
The girl was about to talk and interview him.
Feeling nervous, Shao Tianze turned to his bodyguard and said, “I’ll take no interview. Help me stop the reporters.”
The bodyguard nodded in response. They cleared the way for Shao Tianze and protected him while he walked to and got in the car.
After getting in the car, Shao Tianze turned his head and saw the reporters running after his car outside the window. He couldn’t help but twist his eyebrows. He took out his cell phone and called his a.s.sistant, “Make a list of reporters who came to interview and send it to me.”
Hearing what Shao Tianze said, the a.s.sistant immediately went to find the reporter list.
Ten minutes later, Shao Tianze’s mobile phone received the list from his a.s.sistant.
Shao Tianze browsed the list and photos on his mobile phone. When he saw a reporter named Ding Ali, his eyes were full of disbelief.
“So alike…”
Shao Tianze couldn’t help but mutter in surprise.
They were so alike. The girl and Gu Changge were so alike.
When Shao Tianze saw this woman, he seemed to see Gu Changge, as if Gu Changge had been alive.
Why did this woman look so similar to Gu Changge?
Shao Tianze tightened his eyebrows. His heart beat violently. He couldn’t tell the emotions in his heart.
He was a little scared and panicked, but strange expectations and surprise rose from the bottom of his heart at the same time.
