Chapter 123 Sadness
The autumn rain filled the air with a chilly atmosphere. Jian Mo rested her arms on the design table, dragging her chin with the back of her hands, watching the raindrops hitting the window with empty eyes, creating cracks.
"Boom!"
There was a knock on the door. Jian Mo subconsciously looked at the glass door and saw Ding Dang walking in.
"Momo," Ding Dang handed a folder to Jian Mo, "This is the total number of design orders last month. Check it and sign it if it's correct."
"Hmm..." Jian Mo responded, casually opened it, took out a pen, and signed, without any sense of mechanical movement.
Ding Dang frowned and said, "Momo, are you okay? You seem to be in a bad mood..."
Just as Jian Mo was about to start writing, she was interrupted by Ding Dang, and then she suddenly remembered that she had no duel yet. Laughing to herself, she shook her head to show that she was fine and looked through the order, and then signed after confirming that it was correct.
"If you feel uncomfortable, go back early..." Ding Dang said while holding the folder, "Anyway, Mr. Yu also said that you can set your own time before the draft submission at the Emperor Club."
In order for Jian Mo to concentrate on drawing the design of the Emperor Club, Yu Ziyun explained that Jian Mo does not have to clock in during working hours these days, and she can leave at any time... all other work will be avoided, just to allow her to have an independent design space.
"Yeah." Jian Mo responded and said nothing.
Ding Dang felt that Jian Mo was a little weird, but he couldn't explain what was weird, so he went out without saying anything.
Because of Jian Heng's appearance in the morning, Jian Mo was in a state of confusion until the afternoon. She didn't eat at noon, and her mind was in chaos without any design inspiration.
In the afternoon, Jian Mo's stomach began to burn again, with throbbing pains. Then she remembered that she hadn't eaten anything since last night.
After Jian Mo said something to Xiang Wan, she left the company and returned to Runzeyuan. Her stomach was extremely empty, but she didn't want to eat anything.
I took the remote control and opened the shading panel on the roof, revealing a large area of tempered glass...
Jian Mo lay on the recliner and turned on the air conditioner... Listening to the sound of raindrops hitting the glass, she looked outside blankly.
There was a beep, and a text message came in from the phone.
Jian Mo took it and opened it. It was a strange number, but the content was not strange at all: Xiaomo, I will come to you to get the money in three days.
Jian Mo squeezed the phone tightly, as if it was Jian Heng's neck... But such strength became weak after only a few seconds.
One million... Where is she going to find one million?
Gu Beichen and I had already paid two million for my mother's heart transplant last time... But sadly, the heart was not replaced and the money could not be recovered for the time being. Why would she ask Gu Beichen for money now?
However, what if Jian Heng really goes to Gu Beichen for money and uses what happened two years ago?
Jian Mo's heart was in a mess. On the one hand, she was afraid that that night two years ago would be exposed. On the other hand, she knew clearly that if she gave Jian Heng money this time, it might be a bottomless pit.
Jian Mo looked at the tempered glass helplessly, watching the big raindrops falling, her heart twisted...
…
"Emperor Group celebrates its forty-fifth anniversary," Gu Beichen said calmly, his eagle eyes glancing over the shareholders present, "As a veteran of the company, I hope everyone knows the significance of the next development plan." After that, He stood up first and said, "The meeting is over."
Gu Beichen glanced at Gu Ci and other sisters, then took the lead in leaving the conference room with one hand in his pocket.
After Gu Ci, Gu Yuan and Gu Nanyi looked at each other, they also stood up and followed Gu Beichen to his office.
"I'm afraid the fourth child is going to talk about shares..." Gu Yuanfeng raised her eyes slightly and curled her lips in a sneer.
Gu Ci glanced at Gu Yuan and said with a cold snort: "Beichen has never hidden his own purpose..."
"Hey, eldest sister, why do you think you are planning to give up your shares?" Gu Yuan snorted coldly, her face with heavy makeup showing disdain.
Gu Ci raised her eyebrows dignifiedly, "Grandpa's last wish is to merge the Gu family's shares together... Beichen respects Grandpa so much, isn't this a matter of time?"
Gu Nanyi looked at the two sisters with a smile on her face, shook her head helplessly, and said nothing...
At the right time, a 'ding' sound came, and the elevator arrived at the president's office area on the top floor of the emperor.
Xiao Jing was at the elevator entrance when he saw three people arriving and took them to the office... Looking at the expressions of the three people, a smile overflowed from the depths of his eyes, but that smile revealed complicated emotions.
"Send two cups of coffee and one cup of scented tea." Gu Beichen said to Susan calmly.
Susan responded, took the documents signed by Gu Beichen, nodded slightly, and left the office with Gu Ci and others... The coffee and scented tea came in quickly, but within a few minutes, the huge office was already filled with A piece of condensation.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the crackling and drum beats fell on the hearts of several people.
Gu Ci was still hesitant. The last time she was at Lishan Villa, Gu Beichen had already discussed the shares with her... However, the emperor's five percent stake in the Yujing Lakeside affairs, the pros and cons she now Haven't weighed it out yet.
Gu Yuan always pretended to be watching a show and did not express her position clearly...
"My condition is Blossom & TB," Gu Nanyi directly stated the condition, "Beichen, you know it."
Gu Beichen smiled and said nothing.
Gu Nanyi didn't say much, she just took the pen and signed the equity transfer agreement with a nonchalant look, "I heard that the second uncle is coming back this time?"
"Yeah!" Gu Beichen glanced at the agreement signed by Gu Nanyi indifferently, then took another agreement and handed it to her, saying, "This is the transfer contract of Blossom & TB."
Gu Nanyi smiled and took it calmly, "Xiaomi said you owe her a favor, she is free tonight." She raised her eyebrows, a little helpless, "Beichen, you are an elder after all, don't let them do whatever they want all day long."
Gu Beichen's thin lips hooked slightly, and said lightly: "Invite her to dinner tonight."
Gu Nanyi shook her head, rolling her eyes a little unbearable, "I'll leave first... Big sister, second sister, are you leaving?"
"Together!"
The two of them haven't decided yet, so there's no need to waste time here now.
After the three people left, Xiao Jing came in, "Mr. Chen?"
"Now I have 38% of the shares of my third sister, and my second uncle has 32%. If we want to gain an advantageous position, we must take back the shares of my eldest and second sisters..." Gu Beichen said, and looked at the time. It was already past five in the afternoon.
He took out his mobile phone and dialed the number... but for a long time, no one answered.
Frowning slightly, he dialed again, but no one answered.
Xiao Jing stretched his neck to look at Gu Beichen, grinning and asked, "Mr. Chen, call Miss Jian?" He asked knowingly.
Gu Beichen looked at him coldly, then grabbed his suit, put it on and walked out...
He naturally knew what the purpose of Luo Xiaomi's meal was. He was just curious about Jian Mo, his aunt. They were all family members. Although Xiaomi was crazy at ordinary times, she still had some sense of propriety. It would be okay for her to meet her.
Gu Beichen drove directly to Runze Garden, unlocked the door with the combination key, and was greeted by hot air...
Gu Beichen frowned slightly, looked around, and his eyes fell on the recliner... He saw Jian Mo curled up with her eyes closed, her eyebrows tightly knitted together, looking a little painful.
Gu Beichen's heart trembled, and he strode forward, "Jian Mo?"
