When Chu He saw this part, she felt uneasy and instinctively hurried over to turn off the projector.
Gu Qingcheng was watching Chu He closely.
As Chu He moved to turn off the projector, Gu Qingcheng stepped in front of her.
âWant to turn it off?â Gu Qingcheng said with a cold smile, âDid you ask me?â
Chu He was furious, and if it werenât for the presence of so many people, she would have slapped Gu Qingcheng.
She lowered her voice and said through gritted teeth, âDo you really have to be so ruthless against me?â
âHow could I bear to kill you? I will let you live healthily,â Gu Qingcheng replied with a smile not reaching her eyes, filled with hatred and murderous intent towards Chu He. âAs for today, if you want to leave the board meeting with dignity, do it yourself. If you donât care about dignity, the continuation of this video will leave you no choice!â
Before Chu He could respond, the video revealed a secret spoken by the male servant.
The man said, âThe night the master had an accident, someone saw a figure fleeing quickly after he fell from the building. I suspect the master was pushed. After all, everyone knows the master was busy in the teahouse every night. The person wanting to kill him would know this too.â
The woman replied, âYou mentioned earlier that the master wanted to divorce Chu He. Perhaps, to avoid being dumped, did she push the master downstairs to maintain her position as Mrs. Gu?â
These words shocked everyone present, who turned to look at Chu He.
Realizing the situation, Chu He knew it was useless to try and turn off the projector.
âYou⦠youâ¦â
âI gave you a chance to save face,â Gu Qingcheng said, looking at the flustered Chu He, smiling seductively and sinisterly. âYou chose to give up your dignity.â
Chu He was infuriated by Gu Qingcheng.
âThis is fake. I didnât push the master,â she hurriedly explained to the executives, âIt wasnât me. I didnât do it. You have to believe me.â
Qin Chong watched Chu Heâs panicked explanation and glanced at Gu Qingcheng.
Then, he addressed the executives, âChu He loved Tianhao, and Tianhao loved her. I believe Chu He wouldnât do anything to hurt Tianhao.â
His words prompted nods of agreement from several board members.
After all, many had seen Chu He and Gu Tianhaoâs affectionate interactions at the company, so they believed Chu He wouldnât harm Gu Tianhao.
Seeing some people believe him, Qin Chong continued, âI hope everyone
understands that itâs doubtful whether the servants in the video are from the
Gu family. More importantly, they only saw a figure leaving Tianhaoâs room
but didnât specifically identify Chu He as the pusher. This isnât the truth, as
anyone could have pushed Tianhao.â
He looked at Gu Qingcheng, âQingcheng, your evidence is not sufficient.â
Chu He gratefully looked at Qin Chong for helping her, otherwise she wouldnât know how to face these allegations.
âWith an intention to blame, any excuse will do,â she said sorrowfully and angrily at Gu Qingcheng. âHow cruel can you be, trying to stop me from taking over the company with such accusations?â
At this moment, Huo Sichengâs dark phoenix eyes were fixed on Gu Qingcheng.
He saw Gu Qingcheng being attacked by Qin Chong and Chu He but remained calm and composed.
Knowing her well, he was aware of how she would deal with Qin Chong and
Chu He.
However, he would not let her face Qin Chong alone.
His eyes shifted, sending a cold glance towards Chu Yu at the door.
Understanding Huoâs gaze, Chu Yu immediately turned and left the meeting room.
âMiss Gu, I think Chairman Qinâs words make sense,â said a board member siding with Qin Chong to Gu Qingcheng. âMoreover, Mrs. Gu rightfully can take over the company affairs while Chairman Gu is ill.â
One after another, people began to speak up in support of Qin Chong.
âMiss Gu, I also agree with Mrs. Gu temporarily taking the chairmanâs position until Chairman Gu recovers.â
âMiss Gu, Chairman Qin is right. The videoâs content is merely speculation. If Chairman Gu was really pushed, the first step should be to report and investigate, not bring it up in a board meeting to set a narrative. I hope you understand that a board meeting is for decision-making, not for conflicts.â One by one, they criticized Gu Qingcheng.
Seeing so many people support Chu He, Qin Chong felt a fleeting sense of triumph, but his eyes unintentionally landed on Huo Sicheng, filling him with caution.
He was so focused on helping Chu He against Gu Qingcheng that he almost forgot about Huo Sichengâs presence.
Huo Sicheng was always low-key, and it was this low profile that made him overlook Huoâs presence for many years, leading him to his current predicament, controlled by Huo and living a life worse than death.
He hoped Huo would remain silent, as once Huo spoke, they would undoubtedly lose the battle against Gu Qingcheng.
Seeing everyone supporting her, Chu Heâs eyes filled with triumph, disdainfully looking at Gu Qingcheng.
Gu Qingcheng, competing with her?
She was determined to get Gu Corporation, not only avoiding divorce from Gu
Tianhao but also becoming the chairwoman, continuing to live a luxurious life. Gu Qingcheng observed Chu Heâs contempt for her, not angered but instead smiling brightly.
She loved seeing Chu Heâs smugness, making it more satisfying when she eventually exposed her.
âHave you all finished speaking?â Gu Qingcheng asked lazily, exuding elegance and looking at the board members supporting Chu He. âIf you havenât finished, continue. If you have, then itâs my turn to speak.â
Immediately, someone responded to Gu Qingchengâs statement: âWe support Mrs. Gu temporarily taking the chairmanâs position.â
âYes, we support.â
âWe support Mrs. Gu temporarily taking the chairmanâs position.â
âSee?â Chu He whispered to Gu Qingcheng, mockingly, âEveryone supports me.
Your video canât threaten me, so save your energy! I wonât lose to you.â
âReally?â Gu Qingcheng looked at Chu He beside her. âDonât rush. Playing the video is just the beginning.â
Chu He, seeing Gu Qingchengâs bright smile, found her smile particularly irritating, especially that beautiful face reminiscent of Mu Xia, making her want to tear it off.
As everyone fell silent, Gu Qingcheng asked again, âHave you finished?â âWe have finished,â the leading person responded to Gu Qingcheng.
âYouâve finished, so now itâs my turn,â Gu Qingcheng said, her eyes still smiling but with a sharp edge, âWhen did you hear me say it was Chu He who pushed Gu Tianhao? I only remember saying someone pushed Gu Tianhao downstairs, but I donât recall saying it was Chu He.. Why would Chu He deny pushing Gu Tianhao if she wasnât involved?â
