Reborn Girl’s New Life

Chapter 867 My Business

The news travelled fast that the general meeting was about to be held.

As always, when something happened to the Shao enterprise, the sneaky top-level managers would gather the information from everywhere.

The last general meeting announced that Song Yunxuan held over fifty percent of the shares.

This upcoming general meeting was called by Gu Changle, which was hard to understand.

Before the meeting, some top-level managers chatted with the shareholders inside the meeting room.

“Why is the general meeting called this time?”

“Mr. Shao has injured his legs so badly that he has trouble doing quite a lot of things. I guess he will make some arrangements this time.”

When it came to the arrangements, the expression on people’s faces changed.

Some people were nervous about such business topics.

They started to gossip about Shao Tianze and Gu Changle.

“I heard that the woman who messed up Gu Changle’s engagement ceremony moved in the Shao Family’s house a few days ago.”

“She used to be with Gu Cheng. She must’ve been to the Shao Family to give her daughter some wicked ideas.”

“She’s the type of woman who only loves money. Now that she has such a daughter, she has every reason to get some money from her girl.”

“But she was Gu Cheng’s chick. Was Gu Cheng stingy towards her when they were together?”

Hearing that, everyone shut their mouths.

Gu Cheng was rich and also infamous in Yuncheng back in his days.

From the day his wife died of giving birth to his death, he did not remarry.

But he had loads of mistresses.

These women who stayed with him for a long time had earned themselves a fortune.

Gu Cheng was not that mean, after all.

Thus, they thought that Yang Yang meeting Gu Changle was more about just getting some money.

“If not for the money, then what’s her purpose?”

“The power, for sure.”

When gossiping, everyone kept their voices down.

But unexpectedly, an uninvited male voice joined such a sensitive conversation.

That man’s words had made the gossipers pause.

Then they turned around and found Mei Qi in a suit. He carefully pulled up a chair and seated himself, smilingly, “I’m just here for the meeting on behalf of Manager Song. Please feel free to carry on your conversation.”

Though Mei Qi said so, no one could really continue their gossip about Gu Changle and Shao Tianze in his presence.

This conversation was brought to an end because of the sudden appearance of Mei Qi.

Seeing these people started to read the documents with their mouths shut, Mei Qi knocked the table with his knuckles and said, “Would you like to hear my speculation?”

Hearing his words, the shareholders all turned to look at him.

Mei Qi knew that they were curious.

He said with a sly smile, “In fact, I feel that Yang Yang must have some ambitions given that she was with Gu Cheng previously. She lost to Gu Changge before, but now Gu Changge is dead. Then why can’t her daughter take over and make her proud?”

Joining their conversation, Mei Qi made his analysis.

His listeners all seemed to realize something, astounded.

Then finally, an elder shareholder tentatively said, “You mean… Gu Changle wants to take over the Shao enterprise as Gu Changge did?”

“Yep. Why would younger sister fail if the older one has succeeded?”

Mei Qi smiled and said.

The shareholders were all shocked. They started to discuss in a louder voice, frowned.

“But Gu Changle doesn’t have the background as Gu Changge did.”

“Yeah. Gu Changge grew up in a world full of cheat and deception and thus was pretty good at such things. But what can Gu Changle do except for sleeping with her sister’s man?”

“That’s the point.”

“She’s too greedy.”

“Hmm, I would say she’s trying too hard for something beyond her reach.”

What Mei Qi said had heated up the conversation in the meeting room.

People started to comment on what Gu Changle wanted to do.

Mei Qi felt satisfied hearing these comments.

He remained seated quietly, waiting for Gu Changle to hold the meeting.

Gu Changle wore a beautifully tailored dress suit with a white blazer. Her hair was also carefully done. She looked energetic.

Perhaps it was because of her makeup and dress.

She seemed like a professional.

Her aura was also more compelling.

Many shareholders were surprised at Gu Changle’s new look.

Gu Changle was satisfied with their expression.

The secretary stood by her. She put the contracts and documents in her hand to the table.

Then she looked around the shareholders seated.

Seeing Mei Qi, Gu Changle paused.

She knew that previously Song Yunxuan had used multiple methods to acquire the shares of the Shao enterprise.

Now she was a substantial shareholder.

But Mei Qi, on her behalf, came to the meeting instead of her being here in person.

This could suggest that Yang Yang was right about Song Yunxuan’s disappearance.

Though stared at by Gu Changle, Mei Qi was indifferent and had no unnecessary expression on his face.

Gu Changle asked first, “Why isn’t Song Yunxuan here today?”

“Manager Song is quite occupied today and cannot make it. So she has sent me here to see it through.”

“You are only an assistant and cannot make much a difference. If you are also occupied, you are free to leave now.”

Gu Changle expected Mei Qi to be embarrassed and annoyed by her words in front of the others.

However, Mei Qi smiled after listening to her words, “I’m pretty free today. Since Manager Song has asked me to do so, I will sit for the whole meeting. This is Manager Song’s business, after all.”

Gu Changle narrowed her eyes on hearing Mei Qi’s words.

She felt uncomfortable hearing Mei Qi’s last several words.

“Manager Song’s business? She’s now missing, and her life’s uncertain.” Gu Changle thought.

This was hers, Gu Changle’s.

Gu Changle had her own plan.

The shareholders present knew that this meeting was the battlefield for Gu Changle and Song Yunxuan’s proxy.

They pretended that they heard nothing and remained silent.

Gu Changle first took out the transfer agreements signed by Shao Tianze. Then she placed them on the table one by one with a smirk.

People at the table frowned, seeing Gu Changle arranging the agreements into rows.

Gu Changle smirked. “I guess you are all curious about the agreements.”

Mei Qi seated himself in a more relaxing gesture.

Then he cast his glance at the arrogant face of Gu Changle.

Gu Changle looked at Mei Qi as if she had been demonstrating her ability. She said, “Mr. Mei, do you have any idea what these agreements are?”

“I’d say…” Mei Qi looked at her and said, “They’re probably your bride price from Mr. Shao because he likes you.”

People at the table were all reminded of the unfinished engagement ceremony between Gu Changle and Shao Tianze.

They were also reminded of the fact that Gu Changle was Gu Changge’s biological sister.

If they were indeed the bride price from Shao Tianze to marry Gu Changle, then things would get pretty ugly.

The bride price was from a brother-in-law for marrying his sister-in-law.

How come they ended up like this? And since when did the affair begin? Most importantly, how come Gu Changge died?

Their thoughts started to run wild.

Mei Qi got it right. Gu Changle could not help but frown. The complacency in her eye faded.

She said, unpleased, “Mr. Mei, they’re not the bride price.”

“Then what are they?”

Mei Qi looked confused and surprised.

Gu Changle lifted one agreement and said to the people present, “I’m originally a beneficiary of my sister Gu Changge. And I’m supposed to inherit eighty percent of my sister’s wealth.”

“Eighty percent?”

Hearing this, the murmurings in the room increased. Everyone found it unbelievable.

“Gu Changge died, leaving her husband and children behind. Why would she give so much to an adopted sister instead of her children and husband?”

“Right. And why are we discussing this today?”

Gu Changle heard their confusion.

She said, “Thus, this business is mine. I thought that my brother-in-law was more capable of managing the business my sister left behind. And I gave it to Shao Tianze in the hope that my sister’s business could remain prosperous.”

“She gave it to Shao Tianze?”

“Hers?”

“Why did she do that? What’s their relation?”

“Yeah. Gu Changge has left a legacy worthy of over a hundred billion.”

“I beg she’s lying.”

“I won’t buy it unless she gives me the evidence.”

Gu Changle heard the murmurings and got impatient.

She thought these old people were a pain in the ass.

She contemplated.

Then she said, “I transferred the businesses to Shao Tianze previously. Now that he is in poor health and unable to run the Shao enterprise, he decides to transfer them back to me.”
