Chapter 34 She Was Indeed A Vixen

The people in the banquet hall were once again murmuring to each other, their gazes lingering on the two of them.

Ning Shan knew that the old man in front of her was an important figure, so she did not lose her composure. She said obediently, “Mr. He, I wish you the best of luck and a long life ahead of you.”

Mr. He laughed heartily. “Good, you two are really a man of talent and a woman of beauty. I can tell that you two are very suitable for each other at a glance. Let me congratulate president Gu and Mrs. Gu in advance!”

After the banquet ended, once they got into the car, Gu Minghuai stared at Ning Shan’s pink little face with a faint look in his eyes. “Brave of you to drink so much even when I’m not around, bold aren’t you.”

Ning Shan answered in a low voice, “I was afraid of embarrassing you, so I drank a few glasses. It wasn’t much.”

Gu Minghuai suddenly grabbed her small and smooth wrist. “Don’t drink in front of others casually next time, or else I’ll…”

As he spoke, his adam’s apple trembled slightly. “What?” Ning Shan was puzzled. Gu Minghuai’s expression was somber. “It’s nothing.”

The next day, at the Gu Corporation. Gu Minghuai sat at his desk and informed his assistant of some things. “Withdraw the investment in the Li family and the Lin family’s project. Also, remove the Wu family from the list of developers for the land in the east of the city.”

“Yes,” the assistant quickly wrote it down. He then raised his head in confusion. “Fourth master, these companies are collaborating well. Is there something wrong?”

Gu Minghuai threw him a cold look. The assistant jolted as he suddenly remembered that there were a few ladies who made things difficult for Ning Shan at the banquet last night, and he understood immediately.

Half an hour later, the Li, Lin, and Wu families received notice of the Gu family canceling the collaboration. The three companies were neither big nor small, but losing the Gu Corporation as a partner could be counted as a heavy loss.

The assistant’s phone rang again and again, and all of the calls were begging to apologize to Gu Minghuai in person.

“Fourth master is not seeing anyone right now. I’m sorry.” The assistant answered the phone one by one, getting so tired that he collapsed on the chair.

In the afternoon, Jiang Zhenping also received notice of the termination of the Gu Corporation partnership. He got so anxious that he immediately called the assistant. Naturally, he could not get through because the assistant was so annoyed that he turned his phone off, and Jiang Zhenping didn’t have Gu Minghuai’s contact information.

Jiang Zhenping was so irritated that he swept the plate of fruits on the coffee table onto the ground. “Damn it, why would the Gu family suddenly cancel the collaboration!”

Mrs. Ning heard the noise and walked over. Her expression changed. “What’s going on?”

The Gu family was the leading enterprise in City A, and they had a lot of resources. Cooperating with the Gu family even once could bring the Jiang family a lot of affiliation networks and connections. Needless to say, they could make a lot of money. The losses they incurred with losing the Gu family’s partnership this one time were equivalent to losing the partnerships with ten small and medium-sized enterprises.

Jiang Zhenping paced back and forth, extremely cranky. “What do we do now? We don’t even have the connections even if we want to plead.”

Mrs. Ning’s expression was sinister. “It must be that slut Ning Shan who prompted Gu Minghuai to do this. I’ll ask Mrs. Gu for help.”

Immediately, she drove to the Gu family’s side residence and exchanged a few pleasantries, then, she explained the matter in detail. “Mrs. Gu, the collaboration with the Jiang family was cut off just like that completely disregarding the integrity of doing business. I don’t believe that president Gu is such a person. Ning Shan must have influenced him somehow.”

Mrs. Gu was shocked, “I can’t believe that this girl could influence Minghuai’s decision in the company this quickly.”

“Yun ‘er said a few words to her at the banquet last night. She probably accidentally made Ning Shan unhappy, so she must have told president Gu that Yun ‘er bullied her…” Ning’s mother said angrily.

“As expected, she’s a vixen,” Mrs. Gu said with a grave face, “But Minghuai won’t listen to me. I have to ask my mother-in-law for help.”
