390: Chapter 39 Board Resolutions

Gu Mingming looked astonished.

"Don't tell me you aren't planning to interrupt the Board of Directors meeting?"

Shen Yan was speechless.

"Surely you don't think I went through all this trouble just to leave the Chairman of the Gu Group's position vacant, do you?"

Gu Mingming quickly shook his head.

"That's not what I meant. I just feel like we might need more time..."

Shen Yan took a deep breath.

"It's your business if you aren't in a hurry, but I am very anxious."

"Forget it. There's still over an hour until six o'clock. Let's go to Gu Corporation first."

Gu Mingming wanted to ask Shen Yan what his actual plan was, but Shen Yan had already closed his eyes, looking unwilling to say more.

Having no choice, he swallowed his questions back down.

Soon, they arrived near Gu Corporation.

"Are all these people the media?"

Hearing Shen Yan's question, Gu Mingming nodded and replied to him, "As soon as they got the news, they swarmed the entrance. Now, even the Employees of our corporation don't dare to go out casually."

Shen Yan asked again, "If they're blocking the entrance, how are we supposed to get in?"

Gu Mingming managed a slightly awkward smile.

"We might have to... disguise ourselves a bit."

Shen Yan raised an eyebrow.

Fifteen minutes later.

The two, wearing hats and masks, used their phones to squeeze into the crowd of media personnel.

"Make way, make way!"

"We need to interview up front, move aside, move aside!"

The two of them successfully pushed their way to the very front of the crowd.

"Are you two new here? Don't you understand the concept of first come, first served? This spot is mine!"

Shen Yan and Gu Mingming ignored the man next to them. As soon as they saw the security guards at the entrance, they pulled out the Employee badges hanging around their necks.

Seeing the badges, the security guards immediately let the two of them in with lightning speed.

Seeing the two enter the corporation so easily, the media went ballistic. They held up their cameras and shouted, "Why only let them two in and not us?!"

The security guards paid them no mind.

Just as the media members were starting to feel suspicious, one of them recognized the back of one of the people who had just entered.

"Holy crap, no wonder that figure looked so familiar! Isn't that the grandson of the Chairman of the Gu Group?!"

Hearing this, the other media members instantly regretted their actions deeply.

Damn it!

They had missed an opportunity to interview the grandson of Gu Hui!

Gu Mingming and Shen Yan, who had already entered the corporation, were unaware that the media had recognized their identities. They were currently negotiating with the receptionist.

"Didn't I already say it? I have business to attend to upstairs."

Hearing Gu Mingming's words, the receptionist looked apologetic.

"I am truly sorry, but the General Manager said you are not allowed to go up."

Gu Mingming took a deep breath.

"No matter what you say, I am still my grandfather's grandson. I have the right to go up!"

The receptionist bowed apologetically.

"I am truly sorry, but this is an order issued by the General Manager. If I let you go up, I will lose my job."

Gu Mingming was furious.

"Are you saying you won't lose your job if you offend me?!"

The receptionist remained silent, only bowing deeply.

Seeing that she couldn't resolve the issue after a long struggle, Shen Yan shook his head, raised his hand, and tapped the receptionist's desk.

"Before Gu Hui was taken away, he called us and told us to go up to discuss some matters with the members of the Board of Directors."

As soon as these words were spoken, the receptionist's expression immediately changed.

If it were a comparison between the orders of Gu Mingming and Gu Xuantian, she would certainly follow Gu Xuantian's order.

But if it was a comparison between Gu Xuantian's and Gu Hui's orders, she would definitely prioritize Gu Hui's order.

"Alright, if that's the case, I will swipe the card for you to go up now."

Saying that, the receptionist took the elevator card and led the way.

Not long after, the two successfully entered the elevator and reached the fifteenth floor.

"Thank goodness you thought of that method. Otherwise, we'd still be dawdling at the front desk."

Hearing this, Shen Yan glanced at Gu Mingming.

"The receptionist is just an Employee who follows orders. Gu Xuantian's position is higher than yours, so he will naturally listen to Gu Xuantian first."

Gu Mingming lowered his head in shame, "I was just a bit too hasty..."

Shen Yan didn't believe that. Being brainless was just being brainless; it had nothing to do with being hasty.

However, he didn't say that directly to Gu Mingming.

"It's fine. Just remember to think twice next time. Where is the Board of Directors meeting room?"

As soon as the words fell, Gu Mingming led Shen Yan to the door of the meeting room where the Board of Directors was gathering.

"Are you ready?"

Hearing Shen Yan's question, Gu Mingming took a deep breath, then nodded forcefully and replied to Shen Yan, "I am ready!"

The next second.

The meeting room door was pushed open.

Gu Xuantian was sitting at the front of the meeting room, arguing logically with the members of the Board of Directors.

"The Old Master has already been arrested. What are you still considering at a time like this?!"

As soon as he finished asking, he saw two uninvited guests at the door.

Noticing that both uninvited guests were people he did not want to see, his face changed, and he asked the secretary beside him, "Who let them up?!"

Before the secretary could reply, Shen Yan stepped into the meeting room and said to Gu Xuantian, "Long time no see. There's no need to chase us away every time we meet, is there?"

Gu Xuantian twitched the corner of his mouth.

"Heh! Who do you think you are? Do you think you can just walk into Gu Corporation whenever you please?!"

Shen Yan nodded and replied, "Yes, and here I am, having just walked in."

Gu Xuantian was infuriated.

He clutched his chest and said to the secretary beside him, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and call someone to drag him out!"

He had been dragged out twice before when he went to Shen Yan's company; this time, he wanted revenge in the same way!

Before the secretary could make a move, Gu Xuantian waved his hand.

"Don't bother with all that nonsense for now. Aren't you holding a Board of Directors meeting? Let me sit in and observe."

Gu Xuantian stared with wide, disbelieving eyes. He couldn't believe what he had just heard.

"Are you having a seizure? This is the Board of Directors meeting of Gu Corporation, not your company's. What right do you, an outsider, have to observe?!"

As his voice trailed off, Shen Yan slowly looked up at Gu Mingming and asked, "Do you agree to let me observe?"

Although Gu Mingming didn't understand what Shen Yan meant, he had no choice but to cooperate now.

He nodded in front of all the Board members and spoke in support, "Mr. Shen is a very good partner of Gu Corporation. I believe he is qualified to observe our Board meeting."

Gu Xuantian was so angry he laughed.

"Gu Mingming, I realize that after hanging around Shen Yan for so long, you've also learned the useless skill of speaking nonsense with a straight face."

"As for why the Old Master was arrested, others might not know, but I don't believe you don't know!"
