She completely lacks a sense of sha.
Other n at the dinner table shrugged their shoulders: "In order to please his wife, this man is truly shalessly feigning pity," they said.
No matter what, everyone in the world believed that the most reliable backing this man had, his family, the Xiao Family, was indeed facing the most terrifying crisis of their lifeti. Under such circumstances, this man did not rush ho to help but wandered around begging instead. It was even more difficult for outsiders not to think of this man as a black sheep.
Gu Nuan sighed in her heart.
Speaking of those who stayed behind at the Xiao Family, there were many. Everyone was thinking of fighting for the family’s inherent wealth tirelessly. Yet, no one considered that what they might take over wasn’t the gold mine they had imagined but rather a hot potato that was extrely troubleso.
The Yang Family cut off contact, the land could not be secured. Xiao Shui, who hoped to use this land from the Yang Family to turn her fortunes around and make a na for herself, naturally beca extrely distressed. The issue wasn’t just that the land couldn’t be secured, but also because she and Grandmother Xiao had sworn to all the board mbers previously that the land and the project were absolutely, one hundred percent, without issues.
Now things had changed with the Yang Family.
Now, her promise had beco a worthless check. For Xiao Shui, who had just beco the company leader, this was undoubtedly the most unfavorable situation. Whoever it may be, how could they trust the promises she would make in the future? Consequently, her ability to lead the company was bound to face the greatest pressure and severe doubts.
After hearing the news, the board mbers had already ordered her to hold a board eting within three hours to give everyone a reasonable explanation; otherwise, a general shareholders’ eting would be imdiately convened for another vote to elect soone else.
Xiao Shui was locked in the office with the secretary and Li Sitong, busy preparing her speech on how to explain the project cancellation, a speech that could also be described as a confession, so busy that they even missed lunch.
Li Sitong had actually been nervous, unsure whether Xiao Shui would turn her anger towards him after being disadvantaged in this matter. After all, it was he who had told Xiao Shui that Gu Nuan seed interested in this project. Otherwise, Xiao Shui would not have kept such a close watch on the Yang Family’s actions. They had originally thought themselves to be the opportunistic sparrows, but had not expected Gu Nuan to make a desperate move.
Xiao Shui’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed, her fingers clutching a pen, thinking that the woman her brother found was truly a tough character.
Perhaps it was precisely because Gu Nuan had no money and no influence, light as air, daring to fight the world with bare hands, unlike them, burdened by enormous financial and material resources, cautious like turtles, considering every step.
But no matter what, a desperate move would only result in mutual destruction, that much was clear.
Since the land could not be secured, what did her brother and that woman plan to do next? Could it be that they really wanted to watch the Xiao Family collapse completely?
Madn, her brother was a madman, and the woman he found was just as crazy. Xiao Shui just couldn’t understand why Gu Nuan would do this, as it brought no benefit to her at all.
Wasn’t it because Gu Nuan was greedy for their Xiao Family’s money that she clung to her brother?
Xiao Shui suddenly stood up, startling both the secretary and Li Sitong, who were taking notes beside her. After exchanging glances, they looked at Xiao Shui warily and observed her every move.
"Stop writing," Xiao Shui decided, and said.
Stop writing what? It didn’t take long for Li Sitong and the secretary to realize that she was referring to the draft currently in progress, intended for explaining and apologizing to the board of directors.
