104 Be Careful of the People Around You
After the kiss, Fu Xi leaned weakly in Gong Hao’s arms. She traced circles on his chest with her fingers as she spoke. “You’ll have to do a good job. I made him a promise. If we lose money, I’ll be responsible.”
Gong Hao grabbed her mischievous hand and kissed the back of her hand with a smile. “If I lose out, I’ll compensate you with my entire body.”
“Aren’t you always mine?”
After Fu Xi finished reprimanding him, she smiled and pressed him down.
A tender game that belonged solely to the two of them played out again.
In the private hospital in the suburbs, Gong Cheng received a report from his subordinate and was so angry that he almost threw his phone to the ground.
“How is that possible! They personally promised to help me squeeze Gong Hao out!”
Less than three hours after the shareholders’ meeting ended, Director Zhang and the others reneged on their earlier stance. Not only did they push Gong Hao to be the vice president of the company, but they even agreed to give him the project.
Gong Hao’s status in the company rose higher and higher, vaguely surpassing Gong You.
Could it be that Gong You saw that he was quite capable and wanted to give the Gong assets to Gong Hao?
Gong Cheng had been drifting outside and working hard; was it all for nothing? He would never allow that to happen!
The more Gong Cheng thought about it, the angrier he became. He slammed his palm on the bed. “Go, settle the discharge procedures for me. I want to go home.”
“Why? Is what I said not working?”
Gong Cheng coughed, his face distorted like a demon that had crawled out of hell.
The caretakers shuddered. Not daring to disobey him again, they hurried him out of the hospital.
Gong Cheng made his way back to the Gong family’s old residence.
Seeing him return, Gong You was a little puzzled. He frowned and asked, “You haven’t recovered from your injuries yet. Why are you back?”
Gong Cheng froze and roared in his heart.
The old thing was indeed guarding against him, refusing to let him come back.
However, he did not dare to show it on his face. He replied gently, “I can’t stay in the hospital. I’ve been away for too long and miss Father. I want to come back and accompany you more.”
Gong You didn’t say anything else. He only instructed the butler and servants to take good care of him before going to the study.
Gong Cheng clenched his fists tightly.
After settling down in the Gong family’s old residence, Gong Cheng immediately contacted Director Zhang.
It was then that he found out Gong Hao had taken out evidence of Director Zhang embezzling the company’s funds. The shareholders had no choice but to change their minds. He thought for a moment and persuaded softly.
“How could he know these things so easily when you did them so discreetly? Father must have sensed our movements and deliberately sent word to him to sanction you.”
When shareholder Zhang heard this, he cursed angrily.
“I was wondering why Gong Hao suddenly became so powerful. It turns out that the old thing is behind this. Perhaps in Father’s heart, he’s the most trustworthy person.”
After knowing that he could not come to the company yet, Chairman Zhang contacted Director Li and the others and began to slowly devour the power in Gong You’s hands according to Gong Cheng’s plan.
Even the project that Gong You wanted to do had been divided out to a few shareholders.
Gong Hao saw all of this.
After another week of shareholders’ meetings, he deliberately stayed behind. When he saw Gong You come out, he handed over the prepared documents.
“Father, this is a new project book that requires your signature. Please also be careful of the people around you to prevent leaks.”
