Chapter 842 - A New Head of the Company (1/2)

It had shrunk by seventy percent, but it was still three times of what they started off with. People could be unreasonable sometimes. They have made tons of money over the years, but they should have expected that money would sometimes be lost as well.

It could not always be smooth sailing in business. Chu Lui was a mortal man and not God. Besides, this was not his fault. Internal documents were lost which gave the others the chance.

Did that negate everything that Chu Lui had done before?

“You’re cousins; of course, you’ll say that.” The shareholder sneered. “We just want our rights, no? No matter the reason, we’ve suffered a loss. That’s the truth.”

That was what the other shareholders thought. However, they could not be blamed. There was no room for scruple in the face of interests.

“You all?” Du Jingtang stood up as he slammed his hand on the table. These people were pushing his cousin to resign.

“Jingtang, sit down,” Chu Lui said plainly. He had not made his position clear since the beginning. He crossed his arms. The atmosphere was tense.

When he put his hand down, he tossed his pen on the table.

He stood up, placing his palms on the table.

“Okay.” Chu Lui curled his lips sarcastically. “I’ll resign.”

“Cousin…”

Du Jingtang wanted to say something, but Chu Lui raised his hand.

“Don’t say anything. I’ve made my decision.” He did not want to be CEO anymore.

Who they wanted as their new CEO was their problem and had nothing to do with him.

Chu Lui packed his things and left with a box in his arms. When he opened the door, he met another man head-on.

“Hello, CEO Chu, we meet again.” After that, he reached out his hand.

Chu Lui hugged his box without saying a word.

“You’re taking over?” It was a definitive statement, not a question.

“Yes.” Min Guocheng smiled as he took back his hand. “It just happens that I have forty-five percent of Chu Enterprise’s shares while CEO Chu you have none. So I’ll have to make do with taking over as CEO. Even though it has its share of problems, they can be solved.”

With that, he walked into the office. “En, CEO Chu’s office is not bad. It’s bright; I like it.” He sat in Chu Lui’s chair as he crossed his legs. “I actually wanted to continue working with CEO Chu, but I don’t think you’ll want to work with someone like me so I won’t keep you. Please make yourself comfortable.”

He motioned towards Chu Lui as he spoke. His eyes were full of mockery and glee. Chu Enterprise was his from now on. He finally got rid of Chu Lui and became the person at the top of the pyramid.

“Brother, what’s going on?” Du Jingtang ran over in disbelief, unable to grasp that the company had just changed hands. “Brother, where are your shares?” He did not understand how something this impossible could have happened.
