Chapter 1452: Chapter 1451: Forcing Us to Submit

A certain deputy frowned and said, "But the meeting is about to start now. At this time, she pulls such a move in advance. Isn’t this blatant bullying to force us to comply?"

That’s precisely the case.

Gong Qingwan’s plan has always been extremely ruthless; everything is arranged to leave no room for maneuver, giving Li Yan no chance to compete.

This predicament is undoubtedly very disadvantageous to them.

Li Yan and Gu Tong exchanged a glance, both seeing the other’s thoughts, and remained silent for a while.

Li Yan spoke first, "When trainees come, we block; when water comes, we cover with soil—certain things remain unknown until the very last moment. Since that’s the case, I’ll proceed in the opposite direction."

Go in the opposite direction.

This time it was the deputy’s turn to feel surprised.

He had no idea what exactly the couple was planning.

Indeed.

The Devil King and his wife coordinated so seamlessly, knowing it’s a matter that embarrasses people.

The deputy didn’t know what to do, whether right or wrong.

...

In the afternoon, as scheduled.

The company’s assistant invited Li Yan, the branch’s general manager, to attend the meeting. Her face was smiling with a mischievous expression, saying, "Eldest Young Master, the madam calls you to attend the meeting."

This assistant is from the main company and has certainly heard some gossip about the branch’s general manager.

It’s said.

This branch’s general manager is an Eldest Young Master of the Li Family, dissatisfied with Madam Gong Qingwan, wishing to seize power for himself. In the end, plainly speaking, he lacks ability, and after taking over, the branch is in turmoil.

Now it’s better.

Madam Gong Qingwan came personally to hold the meeting.

She wanted to see what the Eldest Young Master would present to the madam.

Recently, there have been too many rumors; even those who dislike listening to gossip involuntarily have heard them.

Over time, even falsehoods become truths.

Li Yan remained silent.

The deputy frowned, just about to speak.

Gu Tong spoke first, saying, "Eldest Young Master? Madam? This is a company, why use family titles here? Though Li Yan is the only heir of the Li Group, such titles are always inappropriate."

The only heir of the Li Group, how come they never heard of this?

The assistant was slightly taken aback and said, "Um... the branch’s general manager, the chairman of the main company, calls you to attend the meeting."

Gu Tong chuckled and said, "That’s incorrect again. The chairman of Li Group should be the old man of the Li Family, the founder of Li Group. His shares are currently managed by a proxy, without the right to transfer them—how is there a chairman?"

This...

How should one address this?

The assistant was thoroughly bewildered, knowing only a little about company affairs and usually following the madam for such addresses without experiencing other situations.

Gu Tong ignored her and turned back to Li Yan, saying, "Honey, the second madam calls you to attend the meeting."

How the assistant calls, she can pick apart, but how Gu Tong calls, nobody can criticize.

Second madam...

What does this mean?

Everyone unfamiliar with the inner workings of the wealthy family was bewildered, exchanging glances, hoping someone would explain. But unfortunately, everyone was wide-eyed at a loss, eyes filled with confusion, without any answers.
