After Having Everything Taken Away, She Returns As A God

Chapter 883: Heaven Earth Alliance’s Future Director! (1)

Gu Huiyan was highly respected in the Great Xia Empire’s art world, renowned for both his virtue and skill.

As one of the three directors of the Heaven Earth Alliance, his status was the highest.

Gu Huiyan was always focused on his work, never engaging in empty talk.

Countless times, he had spent his own money to buy back cultural relics lost in wars from abroad.

Everyone in the Heaven Earth Alliance genuinely admired him.

Even Director Mou and President Luo, who had always wanted to usurp Gu Huiyan’s power, respected him and never conspired against him.

In recent years, the revival of national studies and traditional culture was also due to Gu Huiyan’s strong support.

The guards immediately stood at attention, saluting Gu Huiyan with utmost respect, “Director Gu.”

Duan Jingtao was almost scared out of his wits, unable to grasp Gu Huiyan’s intentions at first. He stammered, “Dir-director Gu? What, what are you doing here? I, I…”

“What’s your name, which department are you from, and who is your teacher?” Gu Huiyan looked at him indifferently, “Do you think being a senior member makes you something special? Have you lost your cultural morals?”

Cold sweat broke out on Duan Jingtao’s forehead, and his spine went cold.

He never expected that while he was flaunting his authority, he would run into Gu Huiyan.

There were five thousand senior members in the Heaven Earth Alliance, and although Duan Jingtao was one of them, he had hardly ever seen Gu Huiyan.

However, he had heard from Master Zhuang about Gu Huiyan’s temperament and knew that this top director of the Heaven Earth Alliance was very difficult to get along with.

Duan Jingtao couldn’t say a complete sentence, “I, I…”

“What do you mean ‘I’? It doesn’t matter.” Gu Huiyan said coldly, “Take his nameplate, delete his information. Only senior members can participate in the treasure appraisal meeting. You can leave now.”

Duan Jingtao was shocked, “Dir-director Gu!”

Gu Huiyan ignored him, waving his hand for the guards to “escort” Duan Jingtao out.

“What bad luck.” Gu Huiyan muttered, still somewhat angry, “You weren’t scared, were you?”

“No,” Si Fuqing replied honestly, “If you had been three seconds later, I would have cracked his skull open.”

Gu Huiyan was speechless.

He thought that perhaps Si Fuqing joining the martial arts department wouldn’t be a bad idea.

“Come on, I’ll take you inside,” Gu Huiyan coughed, “It’s my fault, I should have come down earlier.”

Si Fuqing followed Gu Huiyan into the conference room.

Inside, there were many people, all well-known figures in the art world.

Seeing Si Fuqing walking behind Gu Huiyan, everyone was a bit surprised.

“Allow me to introduce everyone to this young lady. She is the heir I have chosen,” Gu Huiyan announced, unable to suppress a foolish grin at the mention of Si Fuqing, though he tried to maintain a serious demeanor. “I trust you are all aware that this young lady has won first place at the International Youth Culture Exhibition.”

The elders and senior management nodded.

They had all seen her embroidery, “Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains.”

It not only showcased the great rivers and mountains of the Great Xia Empire but also brought embroidery to the international stage.

It was rare for someone to impress Gu Huiyan.

“My student is skilled in many areas, not just embroidery. She’s proficient in Go, chess, and calligraphy as well.” Gu Huiyan’s eyes sparkled with pride, “So, I plan to pass my position to her. Does anyone have any objections?”

The elders and senior management had no objections.

Director Mou and Director Luo exchanged glances but remained silent.

Si Fuqing’s achievements in the arts were undeniable.

Moreover, she was only nineteen, with boundless potential.

“Good, it’s settled then,” Gu Huiyan decided decisively, “But my student is primarily an actress. She enjoys acting. Have any of you seen her movie ‘Crossing the Demon Realm’? If not, go watch it. It’s in its second run on Starlight TV.”

Among the elders were also opera actors who highly appreciated Si Fuqing’s acting skills.

“Alright, the meeting is adjourned.” Gu Huiyan clapped his hands, “If anyone has any further matters, come to my office later.”

The elders and senior management took their leave.

The meeting was short, but everyone knew that the dynamics within the Heaven Earth Alliance were about to change.

Director Mou glanced at Si Fuqing before leaving but said nothing in the end.

“Student, you can take whatever you like from the treasure appraisal meeting.” Gu Huiyan beamed, “I’ve informed the guards. If anyone dares to look down on you, they’ll be kicked out immediately.”

Even if Si Fuqing wasn’t his student, Duan Jingtao should have known the meaning of “respecting others.”
