Chapter 9
Annoucement
Gu Ming meant exactly that, but he didn’t expect Gu Dai to say it so bluntly. All he could do was grit his teeth and deny it, “Of course, uncle doesn’t mean that. It’s just that this company is your parents’ lifetime effort, and uncle just doesn’t want any mistakes to happen.”
“I see,” Gu Dai responded indifferently.
But it was this kind of attitude that left Gu Ming unable to read the intention behind Gu Dai’s message, and his heart was in turmoil at this moment.
He couldn’t help but continue, “Of course, that’s the case. After all, we are relatives. Can your uncle deceive you? You’ve been missing for three years and don’t know much about the company. Taking over the company right after returning would surely be very difficult.”
Gu Dai looked at Gu Ming with a smile in her eyes and gently said, “Uncle doesn’t need to worry about that. I believe my learning ability is among the best, and I’m sure I’ll quickly get the hang of the company’s affairs.”
Then, Gu Dai paused, and seeing Gu Ming’s displeased expression, she continued, “Besides, let’s not talk about the fact that I currently hold the most shares in the company. Three years ago, my parents already said they wanted to hand over the company to me. Isn’t it a bit inappropriate for you to stop me now?”
Three years ago, her parents suddenly passed away, and just when she was about to take over the company, a cruise ship accident occurred. When Gu Dai regained her memory, she wondered if these events had anything to do with Gu Ming.
At that time, Gu Dai was only suspicious and couldn’t be sure, but now, seeing Gu Ming’s words and his evasive attitude, she became increasingly certain of her suspicion.
“Uncle surely has no objections to me becoming the chairman.” Gu Dai saw that Gu Ming wanted to speak and took the initiative to block his words.
Gu Ming could only agree with a livid face, as he was not in the upper hand at the moment.
Moreover, when Gu Ming learned that Gu Dai might be alive, he had immediately arranged for the company’s assets to be transferred overseas. Now, the Gu Group was nothing more than an empty shell. If Gu Dai wanted it, then he would give it to her!
He wanted to see how long she could hold on.
Gu Ming stopped talking, and the people following him didn’t say anything either, as they didn’t receive any instructions.
Gu Dai nodded in satisfaction and then said, “Since everyone has no objections now, I will announce one more thing. I believe everyone is familiar with Lin Sheng. Starting from today, he will resume his position as the chairman’s special assistant!”
This was also an announcement. After she said, “dismissed!” Gu Dai left with Lin Sheng.
Gu Dai contacted Lin Sheng on her way to the Gu Group. At the time, Lin Sheng felt incredibly incredulous when he received the call, and he almost dropped his phone to the ground.
Although Lin Sheng did indeed see Gu Dai, he was still somewhat dazed at the moment, looking at the person before him. He was afraid that this was just an illusion created by his longing.
Lin Sheng’s voice trembled as he asked, “Miss Gu Dai, is it really you who came back?”
Gu Dai showed no impatience when she heard the question and patiently replied, “Uncle Lin, it’s me, I’m back!”
After Lin Sheng received Gu Dai’s affirmative answer, he burst into tears, “That’s great! It must be Mr. and Mrs. watching over the young lady! How have you been these past three years, Miss?”
Gu Dai hesitated for a moment, and her face revealed a bitter emotion.
She didn’t want anyone to know about her experiences during these three years. Her lips were tightly pursed, and her fists turned white from clenching.
Gu Dai took a deep breath, hiding her emotions, and spoke softly, “Not very good, but it’s all in the past. In any case, I’m back now, and my purpose in returning is to take back the company. This step has been completed, but some people may not accept me. I might need Uncle Lin’s help.”
Lin Sheng became emotional with Gu Dai’s words. In fact, even without Gu Dai’s words, he would have done so!
Lin Sheng said loudly and firmly, “I will definitely use all my knowledge and not let you down!” Indeed, he hadn’t misjudged her; she would surely be able to support the entire Gu family in the future!
