“Did she really say that?”

Lin Chen had a somewhat surprised expression.

Had this woman gone crazy?

What’s good about taking all responsibility if she fails, but not getting credit if she succeeds?

Gao Feng sighed, “Yes, she made a military order in front of all the shareholders, and now the whole company knows about it.”

Lin Chen frowned, “Who spread the news?”

Gao Feng shook his head, “I don’t know that, but now almost everyone knows about it.”

Lin Chen laughed, “What’s your take on this?”

Gao Feng thought for a moment and said, “It’s well known throughout the company that Mr.

Qian has always been at odds with General Manager Chu.

I think the acquisition will probably not go smoothly.”

Lin Chen sighed, “And you see, even we, ordinary employees, can think of this, why can’t she?”

Gao Feng smiled, “Maybe General Manager Chu has her own ways.

After all, this kind of thing is like a battle of wits and everyone has their own trump card.

The result can only be known at the end.”

Lin Chen smiled, “You’ve got a point.

Do you think the company would be better off with General Manager Chu in charge, or with Mr.

Qian?”

Gao Feng laughed, “Brother Chen, you’d make the best team leader.

You know General Manager Chu and have connections.

So, naturally, I’d prefer her.”

Lin Chen laughed, “You’re quite candid.”

Gao Feng grinned, “Actually, General Manager Chu is really a good person.

She seems very energetic and cares about the lower-level employees.

Mr.

Qian and his people, maybe they’ve been leaders for too long and got used to being above everyone else.

From this perspective, I actually hope General Manager Chu can lead the company forward.”

After Gao Feng left, Lin Chen leaned back in his chair, wondering whether or not to give Chu Jiaxue some advice.

In just half a day, the news from the shareholders’ meeting had spread throughout the entire company.

It was absolutely impossible for it to have happened without someone pushing things from behind.

There was no second possibility other than Qian Bueyi.

He wanted to shape the public opinion within the company first, and when Chu Jiaxue failed, he could then rightfully kick her out of her position.

After thinking for a while, Lin Chen decided to let it go.

Chu Jiaxue was so smart that she couldn’t be unaware of what she was doing.

Maybe she had a trump card, or maybe she was going all out.

But in any case, she had her own reasons and there was no need for him to be involved.

After all, he was not really her husband.

At the moment, their relationship couldn’t even be considered friends.

At most, they were partners in some sort of collaboration?

Let her be.

A woman carrying such a burden was truly exhausting.

Even if she failed and was ousted, it might not be a bad thing—it might even be a liberation.

After work, Lin Chen drove to the Gu Family’s house to give acupuncture treatment to the old man as usual.

When he came downstairs after finishing the acupuncture, Bai Qian enthusiastically handed him some water, “You’ve worked hard, Xiao Lin.

It’s almost meal time now, just have dinner with us.”

Lin Chen declined politely, “Auntie, maybe next time, I still have something to do.”

Bai Qian playfully said, “The incident during the camping trip last week, if not for you, Xiaoxi might have lost her life.

You have no idea how frightened I was when I heard about it.

Today, you have to stay and have a meal so I can express my gratitude.”

Lin Chen looked for help at Gu Yuexi, who said with a smile, “It’s after work now, what do you have to do?

Just eat and then leave.”

Lin Chen was speechless; so much for helping!

You’re supposed to be on my side!

With the conversation already at this point, Lin Chen could only agree, “Alright, Auntie, I’ll take you up on your offer.”

Bai Qian happily scolded, “You’re such a child, why be so polite?

From now on, treat this place like your own home and come over whenever you have time.

I’ll cook you something delicious.”

Bai Qian went into the kitchen to cook, and Lin Chen turned to stare at Gu Yuexi without saying anything.

Gu Yuexi felt slightly embarrassed being stared at and naturally sat down next to Lin Chen, pushing his arm, “Hey, just show some gratitude!

You still have to eat anyway; just eat and go.”

Lin Chen asked, “How did your mom find out about the camping incident?

Did you tell her?”

Gu Yuexi shook her head, “Gao Xiaomin told her family, and her mom told my mom.

As a result, I got scolded for not informing my parents about such a big incident.”

Lin Chen suddenly realized, “Does your dad know too?”

Gu Yuexi got a little closer and asked with a grin, “Do you want to know if my dad still disapproves of us being together?”

Lin Chen’s thoughts were laid bare, and he felt slightly embarrassed.

He reached out to hold Gu Yuexi’s head and pushed her away a little, “Just say what you want to say, why are you getting so close?”

Gu Yuexi laughed, “Right on the money, huh?

Guilty?

Haha!”

Lin Chen, in fact, just asked out of habit and didn’t really plan to develop anything with Gu Yuexi, but he did think that way at the time.

“Why should I feel guilty?

Do you believe I’ll tell your mom the truth right now?”

Gu Yuexi grabbed Lin Chen’s arm and threatened him in a low voice, “You dare!

If you say it, I’ll tell everyone that you looked at my chest, twice, and that you slept with me…”

Just as Lin Chen was about to speak, there was a sound at the entrance, and Gu Hongtao walked in with a few invitations in his hand.

Seeing Lin Chen, Gu Hongtao hesitated for a moment with a slightly complex expression, “Lin Chen, you’re here.”

Lin Chen said with a laugh, “Yes, I came to give the old man acupuncture.

He’s recovering very well.

In the future, the frequency of acupuncture treatment can be reduced to once a week.”

Gu Yuexi made a face and changed the subject, “Dad, what are you holding?”

Gu Hongtao held up the invitations in his hand, looking somewhat excited, “Liu Zhen Hao is coming to Pingjiang, and he’s organizing a banquet.

He sent me an invitation, so we’ll all go together at that time.”

Gu Yuexi asked in surprise, “Liu Zhen Hao?

The Real Estate King from Linhai City?”

Gu Hongtao nodded, “Yes, it’s him.”

Gu Yuexi blinked and suddenly grabbed Lin Chen’s arm, “Can Lin Chen come with us?”
