The male and female protagonists, who were originally supposed to meet six months later, suddenly met ahead of schedule and fell in love.
Everything in the novel's world began to accelerate at double speed.
The fates of those destined to be cannon fodder also began to be forcibly shaped along their predetermined paths.
In the dead of night, the Chu Family's landline rang incessantly, waking everyone in the house.
Chu Yu stormed out of his room, only to find that the butler had already answered the phone. However, Chu Yu's expression was grim, as if he had heard some bad news.
A few minutes later, the butler relayed the contents of the phone call to Chu Yu.
"Madam said that when Master went to the hospital for a check-up today, he accidentally ran into foreign media reporters and was photographed. Now the news of President Chu illness has spread back to China."
At this moment, Chu Chen rubbed his eyes and came out of his second-floor room to look down.
"What has spread to the country?"
Chu Chen had just woken up and didn't hear what the butler said.
Chu Yu showed no sign of panic at this moment.
Because she had made this preparation a long time ago.
She glanced at Chu Chen upstairs, "Hurry up and change your clothes, come with me to the Chu Group headquarters."
Chu Chen looked puzzled. "What are you doing at the Chu Group in the middle of the night?"
"Hold a shareholders' meeting and seize the company, hurry up, don't dawdle." After saying that, Chu Yu turned around and made a phone call to notify the Chu Group's secretary-general to convene an extraordinary shareholders' meeting.
Aside from normal circumstances, shareholders' meetings are only convened when there are significant changes within the group.
The news of President Chu illness today has been so severe that it has affected the entire Chu Group. Therefore, when the sleeping shareholders were woken up and learned of this, they all instantly became alert.
Upon hearing this news, several major shareholders who held a majority stake began to harbor some ulterior motives.
At this time, on Weibo late at night, night owls who were still awake began to discuss it.
[ The Chu Group is in trouble! Is Chu Yu's rise to fame about to end?]
[What happened to the Chu Group? What's wrong?]
[News has surfaced that President Chu concealed his illness while abroad; it seems there might be changes at the Chu Group.]
Netizens naturally have no concern about the Chu Group going bankrupt or closing down.
The main reason they were so curious was the situation of the Chu Family.
The Chu Sister Yu' current comfortable life is all thanks to the lingering influence of their father Chu Tingnian. Even though Chu Tingnian doesn't go to the company often, people are afraid of his past reputation and dare not cause trouble.
But things are different now. Chu Tingnian is seriously ill and no longer has the energy to deal with the group's affairs.
Could Chu Sister Yu, both inexperienced and inexperienced, withstand such pressure?
Chapter 43
The headquarters of the Chu Group is located in the most bustling commercial district in the center of Capital.
This area is filled with high-rise buildings and is a commercial hub that many working professionals aspire to.
In the dead of night, the security guards stationed 24 hours a day downstairs at the Chu Group building suddenly received news that the company was going to hold an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, and they immediately perked up.
The security captain washed his face and picked up his walkie-talkie to check the security situation in various locations.
The shareholders' meeting is a power organ composed of all shareholders. As a top domestic group enterprise, Chu Group's shares have been largely dispersed, with the total number of shareholders reaching tens of thousands.
Of course, not all of these shareholders can attend in person, so those who are unable to attend will specifically entrust a shareholder they know to attend and vote on their behalf.
For Chu Sister Yu, the most dangerous part of today's extraordinary shareholders' meeting lies here.
The shareholders' meeting has the right to decide on all major personnel appointments and removals. If those shareholders with higher shareholdings directly call on the smaller shareholders to participate in removing the current chairman Chu Tingnian, then the Chu Group may really have to change its name and ownership.
Even in the darkness, the Chu Group headquarters building remained brightly lit.
Before long, the security team welcomed the first shareholder, Huang Yinian, who is currently the largest shareholder besides the Chu Family, holding 15% of the shares by himself.
Upon seeing this man, the security captain quickly adopted a serious and solemn expression and went over to greet him, " Director Huang, you've arrived."
Huang Yinian smiled gently at the security captain, "Yes, thank you for guarding the company so late."
The security captain quickly and modestly declined, saying, "It's nothing compared to your hard work."
Huang Yinian chatted amiably with the security captain as he walked into the group's building.
The assistant beside him promptly bent down to help open the door, and Huang Yinian finished his chat with the security captain, turned around and went straight to the elevator.
The elevator doors slowly closed, and the gentle smile on Huang Yinian's face vanished instantly, leaving only indifference.
He looked up at the security camera above the elevator, a smile flashing in his eyes, but he was deep in thought.
As the shareholders received the news and rushed to the Chu Group's headquarters, Chu Sister Yu also packed up, got into their car, and set off.
Now that things had come to this, Chu Yu could no longer hide some things, so she truthfully told Chu Chen about her parents' situation abroad in the car.
Chu Chen, who was always carefree and nonchalant, was completely stunned at this moment.
From birth, Chu Chen was a young master born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
Although Chu Yu always seemed to bully him, Chu Chen knew that in crucial moments, Chu Yu would be the one willing to stand up for him and protect him from harm.
Although his parents seemed to favor Chu Yu, always doting on him while treating him like a foundling, Chu Chen knew that his parents also loved him. They treated him and his sister equally in many important matters and never showed favoritism.
Therefore, Chu Chen, who was well protected, did not experience many setbacks.
Faced with this unexpected situation, Chu Chen was even more at a loss as to how to react.
Chu Yu, on the other hand, wasn't so serious. He even glanced at me jokingly, "Anyway, just remember not to say anything at the meeting today, just nod in support of me."
