Chapter 1474 Shareholders“ Meeting 6


So, right now, they could only see how things turned out after they had proceeded with the plan. It should not be that bad, right?


Yang Sheng was worried, but looking at Qi Lei’s unconcerned expression, he took a breath before continuing, “Master Qi, then what should we do now? We can’t just sit and watch the First Master do whatever he wants.”


“Otherwise, what do you think we can do now?” With a tranquil expression, Qi Lei gave Yang Sheng a sidelong gaze.


Yang Sheng held his breath, thought about it for a moment, but he could only shake his head after that. “When things get to this point, I’m a little worried that this might already be a checkmate.”


“Since when did you become more pessimistic than me?” As Qi Lei smiled, he arranged his cufflinks casually, then chuckled indifferently.


“Otherwise, Master Qi, can you think of how can we come back from the situation that we’re in?” Yang Sheng asked him uncertainly, but upon noticing his calm expression, he seemed to feel a little more at ease.


“Business is no chess. Isn’t checkmate a thing here? I don’t know about that. What I know is that where there’s a will, there is a way. So, don’t overthink. Everything will mend in the end, so who said I am on the losing side?”


“But, Master Qi…” Yang Sheng wanted to say something, but at the same time, the mobile phone in Qi Lei’s pocket started vibrating.


Yang Sheng stopped talking immediately while Qi Lei reached out into his pocket and took out the vibrating cell phone. He then took a glance at the caller ID, swiped the answer key downwards.


“Master Qi, I’ve collected a copy of all the information that you want. The rest will be sent to you later on.” The voice of the person on the other side of the phone was deep yet hoa.r.s.e, and there was a strong foreign accent in his tone.


After hearing that, Qi Lei lowered his sight and responded lightly, “Great, sorry to have bothered you.”


“I’ll send them to you via email anonymously.”


“Okay.” Qi Lei gave a short yet simple response before hanging up indifferently. He then placed the phone back into his pocket, turned his head, and looked out of the car window. His expression remained the same as though nothing much had changed. However, Yang Sheng, who had been staring at him, seemed to have caught something in his gaze, and a sheer cold ray flashed through his eyes.


Yang Sheng wanted to voice out and ask about it, but when he lifted his head and looked at Qi Lei after giving it a thought, his master had already closed his eyes, and only fatigue could be read on that attractive face.


He was extremely exhausted and needed a break badly, especially since things had been so worrisome and draining recently.


Yang Sheng could not bear to disturb him, so he thought about it, turned up the air conditioning of the car in silence, then shifted his sight away from Qi Lei…



He thought that such peaceful days should last a long time. However, he did not expect it to be interrupted so quickly.


In B City, at the pavilion in the backyard of the Gu residence. Gu Qiwu was sitting at the side of the table habitually, looking at the doc.u.ments intently. With the pen in his hand, he annotated something on the doc.u.ments occasionally. Some of the doc.u.ments on the left-hand side had been moved to the right.


“Boss!” Just when Gu Qiwu was busy concentrating, Ah Yong’s voice came from the front out of a sudden, and of course, a hint of caution could be heard in the voice.


Sure enough, Gu Qiwu, who was in deep thought, was suddenly interrupted. His expression turned a little sour naturally. Frowning, he paused his actions for a while, then raised his head slightly and gazed to the front.


At this moment, Ah Yong was standing just in front of the staircase outside of the pavilion, his face appearing a little solemn and his eyes were gloomy.


Something had happened!


Gu Qiwu’s already creased brows tightened further in an instant. He then shot an unfathomable glance at Ah Yong and easily caught the anxiety in his expression. “What’s the matter?” Gu Qiwu asked indifferently.


Ah Yong approached and stopped right next to Gu Qiwu, then responded softly, “Boss, Miss Lingsha just called and informed that she’s coming back real soon. She should’ve entered the urban area of City B now, and I got the news that the Qi Kai Group will be holding a shareholders’ meeting in the coming two days. Although Qi Qiming’s condition has stabilized, he’s still in a coma. The Qi Kai Group can’t be without a leader. Qi Qiming was very fond of Qi Feng taking over the company, so everybody thinks it’s normal for Master Qi Feng to temporarily take over as the acting president of the Qi Kai Group.”


Having heard that, Gu Qiwu’s expression changed several times. His creased brows loosened, then tightened again.


“But I also heard that Qi Qiming has changed his thoughts about Qi Lei recently, so n.o.body can confirm Qi Qiming’s take on this matter. Especially a few of Qi Qiming’s trusted followers, they’re all skeptical about the car accident while Yue Hai is neutral about it. Hence, I’m afraid that Master Qi Feng might be under a lot of pressure now, and I guess Miss Lingsha’s homecoming is probably because of this issue too.” Ah Yong put forward his opinion boldly.


As Ah Yong finished his report, Gu Qiwu’s eyes shifted a bit. He then said softly after a while, “So what? I’ve done almost all that can be and should be done.” He had promised Mu Lingshi that he would no longer interfere with Qi Feng and Gu Lingsha’s affairs, but now…


Some things were inevitable after all. He told himself to look away, there was nothing wrong with keeping the peace.


Mu Lingsha seemed to have adapted a lot recently. At least, she was not like who she was when she just arrived here. At that time, she hardly said anything to anybody else, except for those who followed her here from the Mus. Then, there was himself. Even though they gathered together for a meal every day, she basically did not talk much to him.


The situation had finally gotten better after such a long period of time whereby she would utter a few words at the dining table. She would also go to the Hui Gu Corporation every day, and together with Ah Mo, they had started to get familiar with the agendas within the company. Originally, Gu Qiwu planned to present Ah Mo with a position in the administration, but Ah Mo and Mu Lingshi had rejected it. They chose to start by managing a small team. By now, after such a long time, the two had learned a lot about the Hui Gu Corporation and would talk to him about the issues that they had encountered in the management.


Gu Qiwu was naturally somewhat satisfied with his peaceful life now. Seeing his daughter and son-in-law by his side every day, hope and contentment, which were feelings that he had never felt, were sown and grown in his heart. He kind of hoped that this life would go on forever.
