Chapter 936: Chapter 936: Ou Chunhua Suffers a Setback (4)
Zhong Qiaohui’s lips twitched: Her sister, Gu Nuan, always managed to grasp the crux of the matter in an instant, which made her really formidable!
Gu Nuan played it coy, called Ms. Hu over to the side of the stage, and pointed at Fu Yubo, saying, "The Xiao Charity Foundation has taken so much money from Changda. All these accounts will be entrusted to him to handle."
Ms. Hu hesitated for a moment: "Is the Chairman planning to have him take on the role of the financial officer for the Xiao Charity Foundation?"
"Yes."
Two simple affirmatives, leaving no room for doubt.
Ms. Hu’s gaze shifted away from the new boss and landed on Fu Yubo’s face.
At this moment, Fu Yubo had recovered from the initial panic upon seeing his former superior, and was now completely back to normal. Gu Nuan assigning him this position was a sign of trust, and not an invitation to curry favor with his old boss.
Ms. Hu said, "I understand. Whatever the Chairman says, I will do."
She was very adept at practical matters, much like Tang Shaohong.
Gu Nuan saw that everything that needed arranging was in order, so she had someone prepare the car to get ready to pack up and set off as soon as possible.
Zhong Qiaohui, who was going with her to buy some essentials for the trip, sat with her in the same car.
With nothing else to do, Zhong Qiaohui showed her a tweet on her phone.
Seeing the phone handed over, Gu Nuan took a glance.
Noticing her unchanged expression, Zhong Qiaohui said, "Looks like you already knew."
How could she not know? Recently, foreign institutions had been short-selling continuously, causing a certain currency to suddenly devalue. Then today, the central bank countered, driving back the short sellers, leading to some trend-following troublemakers suffering heavy losses.
"I thought you didn’t know, and was wondering if I should tell you about some self-assured people—" Zhong Qiaohui cleared her throat.
"Are you talking about Miss Li?"
"So you already knew!" Zhong Qiaohui slapped her thigh, feeling a deep sense of satisfaction seeing Li Changzhi finally get her comeuppance. "Honestly, I don’t know why Director Chen puts up with her by his side, someone with such behavior—"
This was the shallow way Zhong Qiaohui viewed people.
What kind of person was Chen Jiaming? Someone with quite a profit-driven mindset. Besides, wasn’t Li Changzhi the one who crumbled out of weakness that time, sacrificing her teammates to protect herself? Chen Jiaming always believed that since she was just a woman, her ability to stir up trouble was quite limited, and posed no real threat. He wasn’t afraid she’d do any harm.
As long as Li Changzhi was of some use to him, he could turn a blind eye to everything else.
After Gu Nuan spoke, Zhong Qiaohui laughed and sighed even more: "Gu Nuan, you’re also quite amazing! Being able to play along with them like this."
Gu Nuan replied, "It’s mutual. He uses me, I use him. As long as we’re aligned in interests, there’s nothing to watch out for temporarily."
Zhong Qiaohui went back to talking about Li Changzhi: "She didn’t just lose a little this time, otherwise, she wouldn’t have dared show her face in front of Director Chen these past two days."
Gu Nuan had a different understanding of this, pondering as she lowered her head, "On her own, she wouldn’t dare take big risks. She must have been led along and got trapped."
Zhong Qiaohui wasn’t as sharp as her. Hearing this, she paused, and upon reconsidering, realized it was indeed the case.
"You—" Zhong Qiaohui suddenly nudged her arm, asking, "You said you knew about this beforehand. Could it be you also got involved?"
"Yes."
"Profited?" Zhong Qiaohui’s eyes gleamed. When it comes to money, who isn’t excited? Even a rich lady like her was no exception.
Gu Nuan suddenly gave her a look.
Zhong Qiaohui found her gaze intriguing and asked, "What? Do I have something on my face?"
