Hearing this, Grandpa Gu almost couldn’t breathe. He staggered slightly and started panting.
Seeing this, Gu Zhihuan immediately went to help Grandpa Gu calm down. “Grandpa! Grandpa, calm down! Big Brother… Big Brother must have his own difficulties…”
Gu Zhilin lowered his head very low, not daring to look at Grandpa Gu. He didn’t even dare to move, just like a child who had done something wrong.
“He has his difficulties? What difficulties does he have! ?” He wanted to secretly swallow Gu Zhiqian’s shares of the Gu family, so that his position in the Gu family would be more stable, even more stable than an old man like me. He wanted to surpass me, he wanted to overtake me!” Grandpa Gu couldn’t contain his anger, he was so angry that smoke was coming out of his seven apertures.
Originally speaking, the shares of the Gu family in Gu Zhiqian’s hands were obtained by dividing his father’s shares into four equal shares after his father passed away. Other than that, Gu Zhiqian never received any shares in the Gu family. The three Gu siblings had originally already had shares, which were given to them by Old Master Gu. Later on, they received equal shares from their father, which meant that the shares in their hands had always been more than Gu Zhiqian’s.
But, if Gu Zhiqian wanted to transfer the shares over at a low price, they should have gone to Old Master Gu instead of Gu Zhilin. If Gu Zhilin wanted them, he could have just expressed his d.e.s.i.r.es to Old Master Gu, then Old Master Gu would probably not fight with him.
However, Gu Zhilin’s mistake was that he had ulterior motives. He had been coveting Gu Zhiqian’s shares for a long time. He was constantly thinking about ways to suppress Gu Zhiqian and snatch his shares. Now that Gu Zhiqian took the initiative to transfer his shares out, he was afraid that Grandfather Gu would take it back, so he hid the matter and took the initiative to buy it secretly.
Gu Zhilin did not expect such a thing to happen today. He originally thought that he had done it without anyone knowing and everything was under his control. Anyway, Grandfather Gu was old and would not live for much longer. If he owned more shares, he would be able to ascend to the position of chairman more smoothly in the future.
However, things seldom went according to plan. This time, Gu Zhilin was harmed by his own little tricks.
“Grandfather, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have kept it from you. I will return all of Gu Zhiqian’s shares to you. Don’t be angry with me, I was wrong!” Gu Zhilin was already old, but now he was like a child who was afraid of being reprimanded by his parents, his body trembled as he apologized to Grandfather Gu. He looked as cowardly as possible.
Fang Hua looked at this man coldly. She really wanted to go up and give him a slap on the face. In the past, he could carry out dirty tricks just to win her over. But now, he didn’t even have the courage to admit his ambitions to Grandfather Gu.
Sure enough, he was just a dirty coward. He couldn’t be compared to Gu Zhiqian at all.
Thinking of Gu Zhiqian, Fang Hua’s heart felt stifled again. Guan Meiyi was pregnant. It was a big blow to her.
Fang Hua wasn’t the only one angered when she saw Gu Zhilin’s pitiful appearance, even Old Master Gu was angry. His pointed a trembling finger at him, “Look at your pitiful appearance! Just look at you! You don’t have any semblance of a man destined for great things! I really am blind! Only a blind person would make you the head of the Gu family and hand the Gu family over to you!”
When Gu Zhilin heard Old Master Gu’s words, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down. He moved to Old Master Gu’s feet and reached out to grab the leg of Old Master Gu’s trousers, “Grandfather, I really know my mistake. I’ll immediately get someone to transfer Gu Zhiqian’s shares to your name. I don’t want them anymore. I was wrong!”
