Chapter 1426 Joy and Sorrow 6
Gu Lingsha ignored Morrison and disappeared up the stairs.
“Master, what do we do?” Morrison could only look away and turn to Qi Feng who remained silent with a gloomy expression.
Qi Feng was much calmer than Gu Lingsha. He slowly reached out to take the doc.u.ment from Morrison’s hand, and casually flipped through it to look. His expression was unchanged. Only his eyes darkened slightly.
“Master, Gu Qiwu is clearly making his att.i.tude quite clear to you now that he’s on Mu Lingshi’s side. That’s not very good for us, Master!” Morrison could not help but be worried now.
This was what he had been worried about the most. Initially, they thought that with Gu Qiwu locked up, Hui Gu would have no one to hold down the fort. Perhaps, it would then be handed over to Gu Lingsha to handle in advance. That way, it would be of great help to Qi Feng, but who would have thought that Gu Qiwu would have made such a decision?
“When did Gu Qiwu get these thoughts?” Morrison looked at the silent Qi Feng in confusion.
A sneer flashed across Qi Feng’s lips. “Gu Qiwu? If you think that this was only him, then you’re too naive! How do you think Gu Qiwu got out? If it were so easy to rid him of suspicions, Doris wouldn’t have looked for us to collaborate so easily. I was ready for this incident to be exposed once again because I wanted to use this chance to hold Gu Qiwu back.”
“Master, you’re saying…” Morrison widened his eyes slightly as he looked at Qi Feng.
As Qi Feng took a deep breath, he could not help but ma.s.sage his brows tiredly. “Actually, long before Gu Qiwu was detained and those rumors came about, I already had a feeling that this might not have worked, and that continuing it would’ve garnered the opposite of what we want. Perhaps, even before that, we were wrong to have made this move. I underestimated Mu Yuchen.”
“Yes, no one would have thought that he would suddenly return and use the incident in New York as bait.” At this point, Morrison felt helpless. “Otherwise, with such a perfect plan, as long as you stuck to the original plan, if it had succeeded, it would’ve been great for us, but now…”
“If I guessed correctly, Mu Yuchen was probably behind why Gu Qiwu managed to get bailed out so easily.”
“Well, of course, Master. When Gu Qiwu was still locked up, Mu Yuchen’s a.s.sistant, Li Si and Gu Qiwu’s a.s.sistant, Ah Yong, as well as their lawyer, were frequently seen meeting up. I think it must’ve been for this. So, as I said before already, that news might not be true,” Morrison said worriedly.
“I’ve said long before that we can’t underestimate Mu Yuchen. This time, Doris and I have miscalculated. If they didn’t have his help, do you think Gu Qiwu and Mu Lingshi would have the outcome today?” Qi Feng said. He could not help but feel his head ache, hence he ma.s.saged the s.p.a.ce between his brows again.
“Master, Mu Yuchen’s good at scheming, and so is Second Master. Therefore, it’s easy to understand how he could do this. Besides, Mu Lingmo was initially a very obedient dog to the Mu family. With him providing support, Mu Yuchen didn’t need to worry about anything. Mu Yuchen even let such a chess piece be by Gu Qiwu’s side, so I’m really worried that this time, with Gu Qiwu, we won’t be able to…It looks like it’s best if we make plans in advance, Master,” Morrison said as even he could not help but feel pessimistic now.
Recently, all of the incidents that came one after another were bad for them. Their luck had been terrible.
“Master, what should we do now? It’s a key period for us right now. If we let those at the shareholders’ meeting know about this, it will definitely affect our plans for after the New Year. I’m worried.” Morrison began to feel uneasy now.
The situation was becoming grimmer and grimmer, especially now that Qi Qiming’s att.i.tude had been affecting them greatly. He could not be as calm as before because too many factors made him feel the uncertainty of the unknown. He was not as confident as before.
Qi Feng’s eyes darkened slightly as he coldly bent over to pour himself a cup of water, drank it, then said, “At this point, what else can we do? Put all of our efforts into the shareholders’ meeting. It’s going to be the company’s annual meeting soon. Father has told me to handle this, so I can’t be distracted. Let’s put aside these things for now. If it really affects the shareholders’ meeting after the New Year, we can’t do anything about it either. Besides, there’s still no news about the shareholders’ meeting for now, so who knows what Father’s thinking?”
Qi Feng could not quite fathom Qi Qiming’s att.i.tude recently, and he even began to have a bad feeling about things.
“Master, what does CEO Qi mean? There should have been news about the shareholders’ meeting by now. I thought it was weird before how news of it seems much later this year, I’ve tried to ask CEO Qi’s secretary, w.a.n.g Chun, but that guy is tight-lipped. He just said he’ll wait for CEO Qi’s instructions and that he doesn’t know CEO Qi’s thoughts either,” Morrison thought about it as he spoke.
He paused, then continued to say, “Master, do you think there’ll be a shift in the situation? CEO Qi seems to be caring more about Second Master recently. In fact, Second Master’s Tai Yu Corporation seems to be launching after the New Year. Will CEO Qi wait to see how things are on Second Master’s end?”
When he heard this, Qi Feng’s heart sank. He then set aside the teacup in hand and took his walking stick. He stood up with much effort, and his gloomy expression tensed slightly.
“I don’t doubt that possibility either. You can go home first. Let me think these things through, but do pay attention to the annual meeting matter,” Qi Feng sounded tired as he said, then walked towards the stairs.
“Master!”
Morrison wanted to say more, but Qi Feng’s interest was already waning, and he could also sense that he did not seem to be in a great mood.
Therefore, Morrison could only sigh to himself as he shook his head. He silently kept away the doc.u.ments on the table.
This doc.u.ment was still a very valuable one with a large amount of compensation!
…
The next morning, Mu Yuchen woke up quite early as always, and he looked at the s.p.a.ce beside him.
Xi Xiaye was still asleep together with their son, Mu Xiaocheng. Last night, Mu Xiaocheng had woken up in the middle of the night, so she had to carry him over to sleep together.
He watched the mother and son for quite a while. Then, he slowly lifted the blanket to get out of bed. Unexpectedly, he had only moved slightly when the little guy beside immediately stirred. When Mu Yuchen turned to look, Mu Xiaocheng had already opened his bright little eyes and was staring at him.
