A female shareholder named Guan Rou sneered, "Zheng Gou, I think you're truly a dog. The old master and Director Wang are barely cold in their graves, and you're already eyeing their property. I suspect their deaths might be related to you!"
"You, you, you! You're slandering me!" Zheng Gou slammed the table in anger, "Guan Rou, don't frame me, or I'll sue you for defamation!"
"Hmph, heaven is watching what people do. You know in your heart whether you're involved or not." Guan Rou glanced at him, then addressed everyone, "Have you forgotten how the old master treated you?"
"Old Zhong, there was a project that caused the group a loss of tens of millions. You were ruined, almost losing your house. In the end, it was the old master who cleaned up your mess and helped you get your house back."
"Ding Qian, you lost money gambling and secretly embezzled millions from the group. When the old master found out, he didn't pursue the matter and even helped you clear your debts. Have you forgotten so quickly?"
"Wu Tianci, you..."
"Have you all forgotten the old master's kindness to you? Have your consciences been eaten by dogs?" Guan Rou called out everyone's names one by one, detailing Wang Youhai's kindness to them.
As she spoke, everyone's faces immediately became uneasy. They all lowered their heads.
After speaking, Guan Rou took a breath, adjusted her emotions, and continued, "Therefore, I suggest we let Director Guo temporarily act as chairman. Then, we can make a final decision once Yu Yan is found."
With a way out, everyone agreed. Even those who had supported Guo Jianhua earlier now agreed with Guan Rou's proposal.
Guo Jianhua had no choice. Although he wished he could have killed Guan Rou, he smiled and agreed, "Alright, since everyone agrees with Guan Rou's opinion, it's settled. After the meeting, we'll assign more people to search for Yu Yan's whereabouts."
After the meeting ended and everyone had left, Guo Jianhua took out his phone and called Li Shengtian.
"Hello? Li Shengtian, you don't need to keep Wang Yuyan alive anymore. Get rid of her directly, lest the night is long and complications arise. I'm worried about accidents."
"Hey, Brother Guo, I was just about to call you. That Wang Yuyan has been rescued!"
"What!" Guo Jianhua's face turned completely black. "What the hell are you good for! You can't even keep an eye on one person! You're useless."
"Now, the arrow has been shot. There's no turning back. No matter what, you must find and eliminate her, or our cooperation will be terminated, and you'll get nothing. Moreover, I'll expose your assassination of Wang Youhai and his son, and then you'll be finished!"
With that, he hung up the phone angrily, lit a cigar, and took a deep drag. Unbeknownst to him, a figure outside the door was eavesdropping and had heard Guo Jianhua's entire conversation with Li Shengtian.
Guan Rou stood frozen. She never expected that Guo Jianhua had colluded with outsiders. She swallowed, her palms covered in sweat, her stockings-clad thighs even wet. She had just recorded everything on her phone.
Guan Rou cautiously pressed the stop recording button on her phone, but she seemed to have forgotten that pressing the stop button made a sound.
"Dong!"
This sound was directly heard by Guo Jianhua in the conference room. He suddenly turned his head and looked at Guan Rou outside the gap.
"Who?"
Guan Rou, terrified, bolted. Her high heels were awkward to run in, so she took them off and ran quickly towards the elevator.
Guo Jianhua, who rushed out of the conference room, only saw two high-heeled shoes at the doorway, with no one in sight. He frowned and quickly took out his phone to make a call.
