Chapter 231: Chapter 175: Unwilling, Waiting

Fu Yuanshan remained silent for a moment.

He looked at Fu Tingzhou, his gaze steadfast, as if this was merely a notification for him rather than a request for his opinion or consent. Fu Yuanshan was tired too; past eighty years of age, he sighed, raised his hand and rubbed his eyes. After enduring so many things, he knew well that nobody could stop what his grandson wished to do.

Moreover, Tang Xi was a girl he had met several times.

If not for all these incidents, Tang Xi might have already become a member of the Fu Family by now.

The elderly gentleman waved his hand, "You make the decision yourself, I’m tired, I want to rest. Ask Uncle Lao to take care of me."

Fu Tingzhou bowed his head slightly, "Thank you, Grandfather, for your indulgence."

"Tingzhou, you must understand, once you marry Tang Xi, thereafter the Fu Family will have to rely entirely on you. You will need to deal with several old directors, and there’s the Shu Family which eyes us like a tiger watches its prey, causing internal distress. If you had married Miss Ouyang from the Ouyang Family, they could have shouldered many risks for you and solidified your position. Of course, Grandfather knows you have the ability and would disdain relying on others. However, think it through—Tang Xi is but an orphan girl with neither money nor connections; she offers you no help whatsoever."

Fu Tingzhou walked to the door, his steps pausing momentarily.

It was just a pause, and the next second. The man lifted his foot and walked out of the ward. Fu Tingzhou’s car was parked in the underground garage; he started the engine and took out the pink diamond ring from his pocket.

No matter day or night, it sparkled brilliantly.

Fu Tingzhou stepped on the accelerator and drove out of the garage; his phone rang once.

It was Guan Yue who called.

"Chairman Fu, Lan’an Group’s CEO Chen Zui has just signed a cooperation agreement with Shu Rongjun," Guan Yue’s voice sounded somewhat anxious, "Yesterday, Chen Zui had still agreed to collaborate with us, but today, he has chosen Shu Rongjun. His defection has a certain impact on us. Several old directors have already started to convene a meeting. Chairman Fu, we need you to come and take charge of the situation now."

Fu Tingzhou’s voice was icy, "I know, I’ll be right there."

At this moment, in the top-floor conference room of Fu Building.

There were several obstinate old directors in the Fu Group, firm traditionalists who favored stability. At this moment, they were blaming each other in the conference room over the lost cooperation with Lan’an, seeking to find a new scapegoat.

Guan Yue frowned at their behavior, which resembled street vendors squabbling over trivial gains as if they were in a marketplace.

She was Fu Tingzhou’s assistant. Before Chairman Fu’s arrival, she needed to maintain basic order in the conference room. Presently, Guan Yue coughed and said, "Chairman Fu, Chairman Gao, Chairman An, please calm down, the three of you."

Fu Hualin snorted coldly; they had long been dissatisfied with Fu Tingzhou’s recent actions and hadn’t refrained from sabotaging the Fu Group behind the scenes. Now, Fu Hualin glanced at Guan Yue and snorted, "It’s our turn to talk as directors, who are you to interject? Where is Fu Tingzhou? Let him come quickly. He isn’t shirking responsibility for losing this cooperation, is he? Who doesn’t know that this issue arose because of Fu Tingzhou? If he had married the Shu Family’s daughter according to the marriage arrangement, none of this would have happened!"

Zhang Taisen slammed his hand on the table, "Yes, where is Fu Tingzhou? He is the President of the Fu Group. How is it proper for him to be absent at such a crucial time?"

An Binghui stroked his beard, "When trouble comes, he’s faster to hide than anyone. Guan Yue, what kind of assistant are you? Fu Tingzhou is embroiled in scandalous affairs, harboring a mistress and rejecting a noble daughter. Brother Fu retired early and left the Group to someone as incompetent as him... He might as well hand over the reins and go home to look after women."

Several people in the meeting room laughed in agreement; they were all subordinates of these three men.

Yet aside from these few, the rest were uniformly silent and serious.

It was a clear standoff between two factions.

Guan Yue’s eyebrows were tightly knit, "Chairman An, please watch your language." She gently curled her red lips, "You can only speak so boldly at this time. I hope you maintain the same attitude when Chairman Fu arrives. Don’t... "

The woman’s voice paused for two seconds, her lips curled in a smirk, her tone dripping with sarcasm, "Not dare to even whisper a word!"

An Binghui abruptly stood up, "You!!!"
