Board of Directors
"Shu, is this the delicious shark meat you were talking about?" Mengyao said as she chewed on the fish- it wasn't even as tasty as a regular carp.
Mengyao didn't want to say no to Yushu's expectant face, especially after all the work Lin Yi had done for the entire afternoon. Now that the shark was cooked, it smelled pretty good, but the meat wasn't delicious at all. It was just average at best … …
"Yeah!" Yushu's appetite was piqued as she smelled the aroma of the shark meat. She stuck a piece into her mouth and started chewing happily.
"Eh? Why isn't this shark meat as good as it was at noon? " Yushu frowned as well … She tasted it attentively … It was still the same flavor, and the seasoning made the fish even more fragrant … But it wasn't as good as it was for lunch …
"Shark meat isn't that good in the first place." Lin Yi started eating as well. "You were too scared at noon, and you puked everything out along with the seawater. It'd be weird if you weren't hungry, that's why you're enjoying it."
"I see … …" Yushu said, a little embarrassed. "Yao Yao, maybe you don't have to eat … …"
"How can I?" Mengyao shook her head. "I have to, I have to! This is a token of your sincerity, and I'm really happy eating it! "
"Oh, eat more then! I think it's pretty good!" Yushu said as she put another piece of fish into her mouth …
"Fuck! Are you an idiot?! " Gubang glared at his son, furious. "Lin Yi and Yushu aren't dead! The police already sent the news! This is huge! "
"What else could it be?" Maosheng paused.
"Pengzhan, that old fox! He's holding a board meeting tomorrow, I think he's going to use this as a pretext!" Gubang said hatefully. "If I let him take back the businesses I control, he'll be able to find problems with just a simple investigation! We're done for!"
Maosheng wasn't an idiot- his face darkened after hearing his father's words. He hadn't thought too much about it before- it was a pity that Lin Yi wasn't dead, but it wasn't a big deal. There was always a next time, but Pengzhan was using the theme park incident to weaken House Jin's power!
The theme park happened to be one of Gubang- it was up to Pengzhan to decide how big or small the accident would be!
"Dad, I'm sorry!" Maosheng didn't think that Pengzhan would react this quickly after what he'd done today!
"Forget it, he won't be able to find anything in such a short time. Don't we still have a trump card? I didn't want to go this far, but since he's forcing my hand, then don't blame me for not going easy on him! "Gubang smiled coldly." Does he think I'm an idiot that's easy to bully? If he wants to weaken my power, then I'll remove you from your position as chairman first! "
A look of surprise flashed in Maosheng's eyes- this was the first time he'd realized that his father still had a trump card in his hands. His father had always been eating away at the company's assets and power, using this method to gain control of the company.
But Gubang seemed to have other plans, and he seemed very confident that he'd be able to remove Pengzhan from his chairman- this surprised Maosheng!
"Dad … …" Maosheng was about to ask something when Gubang cut him off with a wave of his hand.
"Don't ask so many questions, just focus on what you're doing!" Gubang said. "Right, did you take care of the guy who brought them bungee jumping?"
"Ma, huh? I've already hinted to Zhang Yuzhou to get rid of him. " Maosheng said. "Don't worry, dad, no one'll be able to trace today's incident back to us!"
"Won't they? Hmph, that old fox Pengzhan didn't even think about investigating! "Gubang smiled coldly." I underestimated him! He actually called the police and told them to stop investigating since Yushu and Lin Yi were fine! It's obvious that he's trying to pin the blame on House Jin! "
Maosheng didn't know what to say- he was the one who'd done it in the first place! Wouldn't House Jin be done for if there was a problem?
It was Sunday morning, and Pengzhan Industries called for an emergency meeting.
Gubang sat beside Pengzhan with a cold face. He was the second shareholder of the company, the vice chairman- it was only right for him to sit there.
"Alright, everyone's here. We'll start the meeting now." Pengzhan didn't waste time with pleasantries, getting straight to the point. "As you all know, there was a vicious accident yesterday at the theme park under our company! The victim was my daughter's good friend, Yushu! If something were to happen to her, our entire Pengzhan Industries wouldn't be able to escape the blame! I'm sure everyone here knows about Yushu's background! "
It wasn't much of a secret- the shareholders all knew about it, and so they all nodded at Pengzhan's words. Indeed, if something were to happen to Yushu, it'd be a huge problem!
"Fortunately, Yushu's fine, and the police rescued her." Pengzhan said. "So, it's obvious that we've been negligent in our management. If we'd been more careful with the bungee jumping ropes, this wouldn't have happened!"
Gubang listened to Pengzhan's words coldly as he tried to come up with a countermeasure. He wouldn't use his trump card unless it was absolutely necessary. Doing that would achieve his goal in the shortest time possible, but it'd be hard to convince the people even if he were to take the chairman's position!
If he were to give away the entire real estate company, none of the shareholders would support him- he couldn't just do things his way! He needed to slowly gather his power and merge it all together.
"I don't want to look into anyone's responsibility- the theme park may be managed by Vice Chairman Jin, but I don't think you'd want something like this to happen, would you, Vice Chairman Jin?" Pengzhan asked.
"Of course! No one would want an accident like this to happen! "Gubang replied faintly. He was smiling coldly inwardly. Not looking into anyone's responsibility? His intentions weren't in the bar?
