Chu Yu, who hadn't said a word at all, "..."
Chu Yu's gaze remained fixed on the phone screen for a long time, unable to snap out of his reverie.
Although she said that the marriage was just an excuse, when she saw Gu Jinhuai say that they were going to make it official, she didn't actually have a strong desire to oppose it.
Otherwise, Chu Yu would have rejected the message the moment Gu Jinhuai sent it.
Chu Yu sighed softly, turned off her phone, lay back down on the bed, and closed her eyes to rest.
Chu Group Headquarters Building.
Within minutes, all the senior executives and leaders of the entire group were seated in the conference room.
Compared to the noisy and chaotic scenes when Chu Yu held meetings before, the executives now appeared incredibly obedient and well-behaved.
Chu Tingnian sat at the head of the conference table, his smile incredibly amiable.
"Thank you all for your hard work these past few days. My Xiao Yu, is still young, so please understand if he does anything wrong."
Upon hearing this, the executives could only manage awkward chuckles, trying to hide their embarrassment.
"Miss Chu Yu has surpassed her teacher; her abilities are truly outstanding."
"Yes, yes, we all highly approve of Miss Chu Yu. Mr. President Chu, you're exaggerating."
Chu Tingnian maintained his smile, then suddenly seemed to remember something, "By the way, I just heard that Chu Yu suspended more than twenty senior executives last night. What do you all think about this? Of course, don't worry about me, just speak freely."
The smiles on the faces of the higher-ups became even more subtle.
Facing Chu Tingnian, these people didn't dare to harbor any wicked thoughts.
"Of course we have no objection. Miss Chu Yu did the right thing. Those executives themselves had many problems, so their suspension is only natural."
"That's right, Miss Chu Yu's decision must have been made after careful consideration, so we naturally have no objections."
Chu Tingnian smiled and nodded, "Not bad, it seems Chu Yu has made progress."
The higher-ups showered Chu Yu with flattery, practically praising him to the skies.
Chu Chen, who was listening in, awkwardly twitched his lips after seeing the incredibly harmonious interaction among the executives.
He thought these executives were incredibly capable.
Unexpectedly, in front of their father, they were all as obedient as kittens.
Two minutes later, Chu Tingnian concluded the meeting, saying, "Well then, thank you all for your hard work today. I will personally send people to investigate the factory's scandal. You can all go home and rest now."
Upon hearing that the meeting had finally ended, the senior executives breathed a sigh of relief and greeted Chu Tingnian with smiles as they said goodbye.
The internal disputes and crises within the Chu Group were also easily resolved.
Not long after the meeting ended, Song Yuan slowly walked into the room with a document in his hand and handed it to Chu Tingnian. " President Chu, we just received news that Huang Yinian and a group of shareholders who once supported him have suddenly claimed to be unwell and going abroad for recuperation."
The smile on Chu Tingnian's face vanished, and he spoke coldly:
"They were lucky they ran fast."
Chu Tingnian took the folder and began to review the various events that had recently occurred within the group.
Fang Lanzhi was leaning lazily back in her chair, with her hand on Chu Tingnian's shoulder and her other hand idly scrolling through her phone.
While scrolling through the page, I suddenly came across a topic related to my own precious daughter.
Fang Lanzhi didn't think much of it and clicked on it subconsciously.
#Chu Yu and Gu Jinhuai are engaged#
Fang Lanzhi's mind went blank for two seconds, then she suddenly opened her eyes wide and gripped Chu Tingnian tightly with her hand.
" Chu Tingnian, when did our daughter get engaged?!"
That shout immediately silenced the entire conference room.
Song Yuan, who was about to give a report, was also stunned for a moment, and slightly raised his head to look at Fang Lanzhi.
What engagement?
Chu Chen looked puzzled, completely unaware of what was going on.
A note from the author:
My darlings, I've been a bit busy with real life lately, so the updates have been a little late. Sorry QAQ
Chapter 71
Fang Lanzhi's shocked exclamation echoed throughout the conference room.
Two seconds later, Chu Tingnian gradually came to his senses and looked at Chu Chen with the same questioning expression.
"What exactly happened? When did your sister get engaged?"
Faced with his parents' simultaneous questioning, Chu Chen could only awkwardly shake his head, "I don't know either."
However, Chu Chen quickly realized something, and a light suddenly appeared before his eyes.
"Could my fiancé be... Gu Jinhuai?"
Fang Lanzhi realized what was happening and subconsciously glanced at her phone screen, confirming that it was indeed that name.
She frowned slightly. "This name sounds familiar."
Chu Tingnian was no longer in the mood to deal with the company's affairs. He frowned and stared at Chu Chen, " Gu Jinhuai? That one from the Gu Family?"
" Gu Jinhuai! I remember now." Fang Lanzhi suddenly slapped her forehead, finally recalling him.
Previously, Fang Lanzhi and Chu Yu's second aunt had been trying to matchmake Gu Jinhuai and Chu Yu.
But she never expected that the matchmaking would be so successful, progressing directly to engagement?
Fang Lanzhi's eyes gradually filled with joy, and she quickly patted Chu Tingnian, "Honey, this is great news! I was so worried that our Xiao Yu wouldn't be able to get married, but she's given me a wonderful surprise."
"Hurry up, let's go home and sound out Xiao Yu's opinion." As she said this, Fang Lanzhi's smile grew increasingly expectant, as if she could hold her grandson tomorrow.
However, Chu Tingnian's reaction to this was completely different.
Chu Tingnian's brows were furrowed into a deep frown, and the dangerous aura emanating from his eyes was truly intimidating.
"Nonsense! When has my daughter, Chu Tingnian's daughter, ever been unable to get married? I think that Gu something-or-other is the one who benefited."
