Chapter 392: The Man with the Most Family
Hearing this, Ling Nan's face became meaningful.
He didn't answer Gu Qifeng's question directly, but asked rhetorically, "It's related to Mr. Gu, what kind of rumor is it?"
Of course, it was the rumor that Gu Yehan would join forces with Song Hengtian and the two of them would swallow the Gu Group together.
These words were on Gu Qifeng's lips, and he wanted to say them, but his lips moved, but he pursed them.
He is dignified and cares for the four young people of the family, what an unruly character he was in the past, and his temperament is so reckless and free, as if no one in the world can restrain him.
And now, step by step, he is involuntarily involved in this grievance and family struggle.
His recklessness and ease have all been polished.
After a long silence, it was still Ling Nan who continued to speak.
"Manager Gu, you will invite me out for dinner in a private capacity, which means that you don't just regard me as an assistant to Mr. Gu, but as a friend. If you still hesitate, then today's meal still doesn't have to break the bank. β
As he spoke, he sat up from his tatami mat and prepared to leave.
"Ling Tezhu!"
Gu Qifeng was in a hurry, and hurriedly got up and explained, "Ling Tezhu, I didn't mean that. In my heart, you are also my friend and my teacher. Everything I've learned since I joined the company is something you've given me. β
It is also because of this friendship that Gu Qifeng has a special affection for Ling Nan.
After Gu Qifeng's confession, the two of them sat down calmly again.
This time, Gu Qifeng took the initiative to say.
"Now most people are circulating that Song Hengtian, the president of the [Hengtian] Group, suddenly came to Jiangcheng, and the person who contacted him privately was actually my second brother Gu Yehan, and the two of them reached a cooperation with the purpose of annexing the entire Gu Group. β
"Manager Lu, I have also heard this rumor you said, but it is different from what you heard. β
"What's the difference?"
"I've only heard people talk about the first half, and they all think that Song Hengtian's partner is Mr. Gu, but no one said that their goal is to annex the entire Gu Group, I'm afraid it's your speculation. Ling Nan's words cut to the point.
This is not only Gu Qifeng's speculation, but also the speculation of the entire Gu family about Gu Yehan.
After all, only the Gu family knows the Gu family's affairs best.
Gu Qifeng admitted, "Ling Tezhu, you are right, the latter part is indeed my speculation. β
"What about your reasoning?"
Ling Nan asked rhetorically with a calm face, it was impossible to judge from his expression, whether such speculations were true or false, he listened to them all as ordinary things.
Gu Qifeng analyzed, "The second brother is now the general manager of the Gu Group, and his words and deeds represent the company. If his contact with Song Hengtian was a normal cooperation between the two group companies, why did he hide it, he didn't reveal it at all, and he didn't mention it to his grandfather, even Song Hengtian came to Jiangcheng, and the second brother never met, if it weren't for Song Hengtian's wife and Luo Chenxin's acquaintance, even this matter could not be determined. Isn't there another purpose for avoiding people's eyes and ears like this?"
This is certainly only one of the reasons.
"And...... I always knew that the second brother hated the Gu family. β
Gu Qifeng said the second reason, and his face became even more solemn.
Although Ling Nan was still calm, a dullness flashed in his eyes when he heard this sentence.
Gu Qifeng continued, "The second brother blamed the Gu family for the pain he suffered when he was a child, as well as the car accident 6 years ago. He hated that it was the Gu family that made him unhappy in childhood, and it was the Gu family that made him almost lose his legs. So everything he did when he came back, he fought for power with his eldest brother, fought openly and secretly with his grandfather, and sat firmly in the position of general manager. But even so, he still has an enemy, and that is me. No one is sure whether Grandpa will leave the company to the second brother or give it to me. Therefore, the second brother planned to strike first, unite with outsiders to cooperate with outsiders, and encroach and encroach. β
He said it was reasonable, so much so that it really seemed like this was the case.
At this point, the waiter at the restaurant delivered the meal, and a knock on the door interrupted their conversation.
Gu Qifeng and Ling Nan stopped talking, and waited for the waiter to finish delivering the meal and go out before continuing to talk.
Ling Nan didn't refute the reasons Gu Qifeng said, he just asked him a word.
"Manager Lu, do you even agree with these reasons you said?"
words, although it was Gu Qifeng who said it.
But is that really what he was thinking?
Gu Qifeng is still too young and lacks experience, so he can't compare with Ling Nanbi, who Gu Yehan cultivated single-handedly.
He didn't expect Ling Nan to ask him like this, panic flashed on his face for a while, and he paused before he said, "Home...... That's what everyone in the family says, even grandpa. β
"What about you, do you think what they said is right?" Ling Nan narrowed his eyes, his eyes looked very stern, and continued to ask.
"I ......" Gu Qifeng took a deep breath and shook his head under his gaze, "I don't think the second brother will do this." β
Second brother......
From the beginning to the present, Gu Qifeng's address to Gu Yehan has always been the second brother, not "Mr. Gu", or his name.
Up and down the Gu family, the only person who adheres to the title between brothers is also Gu Qifeng.
He is uninhibited, but he is also the person who cares about his family and has the most "family" in his heart.
"Why does Manager Lu think so?" After listening to Gu Qifeng's answer, Ling Nan not only did not show joy, but sneered with some disdain, as if he was laughing at Gu Qifeng's innocence.
"If the second brother really has such ambitions, as long as he says it, I am willing to give it to him. β
"Let?" Ling Nan hooked his lips again and sneered, this was a rare look from his calm face.
"Ling Tezhu, don't get me wrong. I mean, I'll make it clear to my grandfather that with my ability and personality, I'm not the best person to manage the company, but my second brother is. Only in the hands of the second brother will the company develop better. And I think that even if the second brother has this heart, he will not do anything to unite outsiders and cooperate with outsiders. β
"Why?"
"I am a living example. The second brother has the ability to kick the third brother out of the company and pull the eldest brother from the position of general manager. As long as he wants to do it, he can also grab me and kick me out of the company. But the second brother didn't do this, but left me, the most dangerous enemy, by his side, and asked Ling Te to help you help me. Isn't the second brother afraid of raising tigers? Unless his ultimate goal is not the Gu Group at all. β
