Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Onlookers Watching the Love-Brained Brother Court Death (38)

“Yazhen, don’t cry, what’s wrong?” Gu Jingkui’s gentle voice trying to soothe the young girl was hard to describe.

“Brother Gu, I might not be able to continue studying at Tenglann High School. My final grades weren’t good enough for a top student. The school said I no longer qualify for the top student benefits. I just had too many delays last term, which is why I didn’t score well. If given another chance, I can definitely get back to my original performance.”

“If there hadn’t been so many delays, you would have certainly scored well.”

Lan Yazhen’s words made Qiann Yan show a mocking expression. Wasn’t this indirectly reminding Gu Jingkui that if she hadn’t been worried about him and went looking for him, she wouldn’t have scored so poorly and would still have a chance to continue at Tenglann High School?

Gu Jingkui felt guilty: “Yazhen, don’t worry, it’s all my fault. If it weren’t for my issues, it wouldn’t have affected you. Go home and rest easy, I’ll think of a way for you. You can continue studying over there, I’ll talk to the school’s leadership for you, I know them.”

“Really? Brother Gu?”

If it weren’t for the inappropriate setting, the people in the meeting room would surely have rolled their eyes in unison. How could President Gu not see through this little white lotus?

“Everyone, how do you feel about appointing someone else as President Gu?” At this point, Qiann Yan spoke, “After observing for these past few months, I think Gu Jingkui is very irrational and not suitable for this position. The Gu Family is the legacy of my parents’ lifetime, I don’t want to see it decline.”

“Miss Gu, I agree with you becoming the president of Gu Family.”

“I agree too.”

“Gu Jingkui has repeatedly ignored important meetings and occasions of the company, being absent and leaving early. In today’s crucial company meeting, he actually went to console a girl who did poorly in exams, which is hard to accept.”

“That’s all I have to say today. If Gu Jingkui remains as the president of Gu Family, I will immediately submit a resignation letter.”

“Me too, working with such a person, I think the Gu Family has no future.”

Seeing everyone’s reactions, Qiann Yan knew the time had come.

She hadn’t expected Gu Jingkui to be so unreliable, making this perhaps her simplest power grab.

Lacking any sense of achievement!

Gu Jingkui, having comforted Lan Yazhen, returned to the meeting room to find everyone silent, sensing something was amiss. What felt even more off was Qiann Yan sitting in his seat.

“Everyone, can we continue the meeting?”

“Gu Jingkui, we’ve all discussed and agreed you’re no longer suitable for the position of President of Gu Family. We collectively nominated Miss Gu as the new president.”

The smile on Gu Jingkui’s face gradually faded: “What do you mean?”

“Brother Gu, why didn’t you answer the phone?” The assistant played the recorded conversation, and upon hearing it, Gu Jingkui’s face changed dramatically, his confidence dwindling.

Once the recording ended, the fiery stares from the company’s top executives made him feel extremely uneasy.

“I thought Yazhen had something urgent, besides, it was just leaving for a moment… nothing major happened at the company.” Gu Jingkui defended himself, he genuinely didn’t believe taking a call was wrong, nothing happened, just continue the meeting, hadn’t it been like this before?

“Since you don’t care about the company, isn’t it better not to hold the president’s position?” a high-ranking official said.

Qiann Yan: “In your eyes, the company isn’t as important as Lan Yazhen, stepping down as president gives you more time to accompany him, aligning more with your wishes.”
