Spending the Villain’s Money to Extend My Life Chapter 468 - "Would you like the recording? Yours for 1 million yuan." (3)

Chapter 468 – “Would you like the recording? Yours for 1 million yuan.” (3)
Gu Shishi was impressed.
Gu Wushuang, who was a white lotus before, had certainly been blackening.
She was ruthless and she could see the big picture!
One must admit that she was bolder than many men!
An adopted daughter who was not blood related was attempting to take over even though Gu Jiangxin had children of his own!
Gu Jiangxin, who was saved just in time during the first four golden hours, could not speak smoothly but his volume was not low.
“You, you.. unfilial girl!”
If Gu Shishi could figure out the subtext in Gu Wushuang’s words, of course Gu Jiangxin, too, could......
By now, Gu Jiangxin finally realized what kind of a white-eyed wolf he had raised!
Sure, he had cheated on his wife.
He was not a good husband or a good father. Nevertheless, he never expected that the daughter whom he had raised for so many years would bring an outside to his bed when he had fallen ill and joined forces against him!
If one would say that Mother Gu was a silly woman with her emotions, then Gu Jiangxin was one who was cold from the very beginning. This was the moment when he realized that he had hatched his bet wrongly all these years.
His allowing Gu Wushuang to connect with Huo Wencheng and not giving her the boot after he had found his real daughter, that was all on him!
“Dad…”
Gu Wushuang’s sob came quickly again. It’d seem that she had cried so hard she could barely breath.
“You can scold me however you want but I can’t let Brother Cheng be dragged down by you… The incident this time, Dad, do you really think you can settle it by just paying some fine? The Huo’s signed a contract with you and now Brother Cheng is being dragged down by you as well and had been booted out of the board! Dad, you’ve offended someone high up. As long as you are still associated with the company, you are going to lose everything from Jingde Realty to Jiahe… what you have been working for your entire life. And throw in Brother Cheng’s future on top of that!
“What will you have remaining to leave behind for my little brother after you pass away when you are 100 years old?
“Hate me if you want but I must say this out loud. Wake up already! Call a board meeting and… take a long break!”
Gu Wushuang’s speech was firm and articulate.
There was no way Gu Shishi would believe that Gu Wushuang had not rehearsed this ahead of time.
“Get out of here!”
Sure enough, Gu Jiangxin was enraged.
“I… am not dead yet!”
Gu Wushuang cried louder, almost taking over Gu Jiangxin’s heavy breathing.
Gu Shishi’s ears were perked up. She was short of putting her ears all the way up against the wall.
Quickly, it was Huo Wencheng’s voice.
“Uncle Gu, I have always respected you and you have always been a role model for those of my generation.
“If we are to look at your contribution to Jingde, your effort had far exceeded those of the two other founders. You are the one who built Jingde from the ground up; it was your baby.
“But Jingde’s stocks are plummeting right now and I’ve heard that there had already been a few board meetings to come up with some kind of solutions but nothing worked. Uncle Gu, I’ve also heard that the two other founders had some idea, such as withdrawing out of City Shen’s market…”
“No! No way!”
Gu Jiangxin knew it only too well.
If they were to withdraw from City Shen, he would have nothing left and that would be the end of him!
There was the Zhang’s in capital city, Guang and Shen have other family businesses that had been around for over 100 years. Just because Jingde wanted to break into the markets there didn’t mean they would succeed.
Then there were the second and third tier cities. None of them would offer them quick enough returns.
Besides… worst of all, even if Jingde was to withdraw their businesses from this city, they would never get the approval.
Who’d allow a big tax payer to move away from their own turf?
It wouldn’t just be Mayor Liu who was offended then. He worried that those even higher up thar Mayor Liu would be after him!
