At Gu Corporation’s headquarters.
A black Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the door. The chauffeur hurriedly got out of the car and opened the door. “President, we’re here.”
Gu Zheng nodded and held Qiao Xi’s hand as they got out of the car. Under the burning gazes of everyone, Qiao Xi was slightly uncomfortable. “Gu Zheng, I’m just signing a contract. There’s no need to make such a big fuss, right?”
As soon as she entered, Qiao Xi saw the special decorations around her. Everyone bowed to the two of them. Gu Zheng held her hand and walked straight to the elevator. Everyone was curious and afraid, so they could only take a few glances.
“So that’s Mrs. Gu!”
“Mrs. Gu is really good-looking. No wonder the president dotes on her so much!”
“Have you all heard? Yesterday, Mrs. Gu went to Heavenly Voice Entertainment but was stopped by two women. They said that Mrs. Gu wasn’t worthy of President Gu at all and she didn’t have the ability to manage the company.”
After the two of them went upstairs, someone immediately sent over the contract and documents. After Qiao Xi signed the paperwork, she took a deep breath and said, “Actually, the person who founded Qingfeng was my mother. She was also the one who named Qingfeng Entertainment. I only saw it in her notebook. I found that notebook when I was packing up my mother’s belongings. Later on, it was almost burned by Xu Mei. Fortunately, I managed to salvage half of it, so it’s still fresh in my mind.”
Hearing Qiao Xi’s words, Gu Zheng frowned. Xu Mei was really evil. Letting her spend the rest of her life in prison was letting her off easy.
“When Mom died, this entertainment company had yet to be officially established, but it was already in its infancy and was left to Mr. Li to manage. Mr. Li and his son have been working hard for this company all these years. If it weren’t for them, Qingfeng Entertainment wouldn’t exist today. I’d even be willing to give all the company’s funds and power to Mr. Li. Unfortunately, Mom didn’t have the chance to see Qingfeng Entertainment at its peak now.
“Mr. Li used the start-up funds left behind by my mother and his savings over the years to manage Qingfeng Entertainment with difficulty. At that time, the company only had one artist and no resources. With Eldest Brother’s help six years ago, Qingfeng Entertainment finally made a splash in the entertainment industry.”
Gu Zheng pulled her into his arms and chuckled. “Then I have to thank Shen Yu. Without him, the two companies wouldn’t have been able to merge today.”
Qiao Xi lowered her eyes and was about to speak when her secretary suddenly called. “President, there’s an old man in the hall. He claims to be Young Madam’s grandfather and wants to come up.”
......
Grandpa?
Gu Zheng’s gaze turned cold. “No.”
…
The secretary informed the receptionist, who replied in embarrassment, “Old Master, the young madam is very busy and doesn’t have time to see you for the time being.”
In reality, the receptionist was already used to dealing with people who tried to get close to the president. There had been more than 10 people who said they were the president’s family members. These people must know that the president had a bad temper, so they started pretending to be Young Madam’s relatives.
The receptionist looked at the old man and the young lady in front of her helplessly. “I’m sorry, but please come back another day.”
Xia Cheng’s expression instantly darkened. This unfilial daughter, Qiao Xi, was actually refusing to see him? Qingfeng Entertainment, which was in her hands, occupied half of the variety shows in the entertainment industry. Its annual income was very considerable. That was Xia Yunqiu’s asset, which meant it was also the Xia family’s asset. What qualifications did Qiao Xi have to keep it all for herself? She should give Yunlou and Mengyan some shares.
He had given Qiao Xi face by personally coming to Gu Corporation. He did not expect that Qiao Xi would actually refuse to meet them.
Xia Cheng pointed at Xia Mengyan who was beside him and glared at her. “This is the young madam’s sister, and I’m the young madam’s grandfather. Are you sure you’ve reported it to Qiao Xi?”
The receptionist revealed a formal smile. “We’ve already reported it according to the standard procedures. The president has said that he won’t be seeing you today. No matter whose relative you are, as long as the president doesn’t agree, we don’t have the right to let you in. Why don’t you call Young Madam? As long as she agrees, I believe the president won’t refuse.”
Xia Cheng’s expression darkened. Seeing this, Xia Mengyan hurriedly said gently, “Xi Xi is arguing with us. We can’t contact her, so let us in.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the receptionist’s patience ran out. She said with disdain, “So many people come and claim to be the president or young madam’s relatives. Our president and young madam are busy, so how could they have the time to meet you? Please leave!”
Xia Cheng was so angry that his beard trembled. He snorted. “Bastard! They’re refusing to meet us? Mengyan! Let’s go!”
