Chapter 30 Jade Bottle

Gu Minghui sat at her desk, holding a document in her hand. Although my hair is still well combed, it is noticeably dry and fluffy. Her eyes were a little red, and her face looked very haggard. The papers on the desk have been piled up into a small mountain. In the past year, the company's performance has declined sharply, the turnover is very large, and the most headache is that the company has suffered a great credibility crisis. It is spread that the company is the initiator of the evolution of the theory of eternal life, the root of all evil, and many branches and stores of the company have been protested or destroyed by protests. And at this time, his boss Chris never asked or gave any support, even if it was mental. On the contrary, several directors of the company began to speak ill of Gu Minghui again, and they never agreed that this Chinese girl could do anything big. Especially now that the group has encountered such great difficulties, they have all jumped out to accuse and deny her, especially Carter, who has always opposed her, and now joins with the other seven directors to challenge her every day. Fortunately, there are still three who are reluctant to be with Carter, but even five makes Gu Minghui feel like a pins and needles. At first, Gu Minghui had been forbearing, but then they intensified, making Gu Minghui tired of coping every day and having no time to work. During this time, Jiang Heyang often called her, not to comfort and encourage her, but to criticize and accuse her, persuading her to turn back every day and persuade her to return to China quickly. Gu Minghui was in a mess and couldn't let go, and often drank alone, so her face was haggard and her body was erect.

At this time, her secretary Amy came over and reminded Gu Minghui that the board meeting would start immediately, and then walked out with a few folders prepared by Gu Minghui. Gu Minghui walked to the dresser, straightened her hair and clothes, and walked out of the office towards the conference room. This is a large conference room located on the 68th floor of the building, which was previously used as a company's entertainment venue, with billiards, tennis, badminton, etc. Later, after the world turmoil, the company closed many branches, and many overseas employees were transferred to the headquarters. As a result, the company's office space is in short supply, and many of the original training rooms, screening halls, and even swimming pools and libraries have been converted into offices.

Gu Minghui walked into the conference room and sat down on the chairman's seat. On either side of the table sat the company's eight directors and more than a dozen senior executives, all of whom held more or less some shares in the group. As soon as Gu Minghui sat down, Carter beside her spoke:

"Today we continue to discuss the issue of the group building, and ZF has ordered us to move out within a certain time. What to do? Where to move? Carter shook his head as he spread his hand on the table.

There was some whispered discussion, but no one spoke openly. Yang Yanyu didn't speak, she just looked around. At this time, Carter continued: "Why have we fallen to this point, we have always been the greatest company in the world, but now why are we forced by ZF to lose even the headquarters? I said, guys, have you ever thought about that? This is fundamental, and if we can't find the fundamentals, even if we move out of this building now, there will be a second, a third time. So you have to look for the essence of things. Does anyone know the essence? Do you have? He also looked around, and finally his eyes fell on Gu Minghui. It seems that no one knows, and perhaps no one wants to say. Then ask our CEO Ma

IA, what do you think is the essence of the matter? ”

"I'd like to hear your opinion first!" Gu Minghui was silent for a moment and said.

"My high opinion? Hehe, let's see, our CEO wants to hear my opinion. Okay, then I'll just say it, say what you want to say but are afraid of offending people. I think the most fundamental reason for this is our CEO Ma

ia, Miss Gu.We all know that our previous CEO was in office, and the company was growing smoothly and brilliantly. Can our Ma

Less than four years since Ia took office, the previous glory has been lost, and the company does not know when it is still saddled with evil, murderous notorious, even our boss Ch

IS is now gone. Why is this, have you thought about it carefully. I feel like it's a trap, it's our Virgin Madonna

The trap that IA has given us, I hope that today our Lady of God will give us a reasonable explanation. ”

"I'm not going to explain it to you, and I hope today's discussion will get back to the point." Gu Minghui said coldly.

"It's not for me, it's for everyone, it's everyone, it's everyone who works for the company."

"I'm not going to explain these frivolous things to any of you today."

"Ha, everybody saw it, and that's what our CEO said to us. In this case, I still say what I just said, if the fundamental problem is not eliminated, there is no way for our company to return to normal. That's why I'm proposing to change the CEO right now, and now that you're all here, we're going to vote right away. ”

"I'm now CEO and Chairman, and I'm going to repeat what I'm talking about today. We are..."Before Gu Minghui could finish speaking, Carter suddenly stood up and interrupted her: "You want to use your identity as the chairman to pressure us, right?" I'll tell you even the boss Ch

is that he will also support me because he doesn't want to see the company go down. You don't want so much nonsense either, I'm going to ask a raise hand for a yes vote. There was another silence, and everyone looked at each other, and suddenly someone raised their hands. This person is Lowry, who has the best relationship with Carter among the eight directors, and likes to hold Carter's stinky feet the most, so it was not surprising for him to raise his hand. But then James, Stephen, Duss, and Beal also raised their hands, including several executives in the back. Among the eight directors, only two Asians, Zhang Ruiqian and Jin Zhenqiao, did not raise their hands, and only these two are relatively supportive of Gu Minghui. But now it doesn't matter if either of them raise their hands or not. Gu Minghui looked at it, although she was angry in her heart, her appearance was still unusually calm. At this time, Carter spoke again: "See, this is the will of the people, we don't need to say more, let's just start voting." As he spoke, he turned around and got a ballot box on the table, which seemed to have been prepared for a long time.

"The company is now on the brink of life and death, and we have to bring a strong leader back to life. In addition, due to the tight schedule, our candidates were elected from among our eight directors. Alright, let's start voting. He motioned for an assistant to come and hand out the ballots. After a while, everyone finished casting.

"Alright, now the voting is over. In accordance with the principles of openness, fairness, and justice, we have all these votes on the table. With that, he took the ballot box and opened the lid to pour it on the table. Suddenly, the door opened, and a person came in, and everyone saw that it was Chris. Chris pushed open the door and walked directly to Carter, who couldn't help but be stunned when he saw that it was Chris. Chris snatched the ballot box from Carter's hand. Then he said, "No need to pour, I'll take a look." After reading it, Chris smiled and said, "At first, I was also worried about our Ma like our Carter

IA is not convinced, but now it seems that my worries are unfounded, and everyone still trusts our CEO very much. Ma

IA still had the most votes. Yes, that's reassuring. After saying that, he actually put all the ballots in his pocket. This made Carter at a loss, and the things he had carefully arranged were disrupted by the boss who came out halfway. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it for a while. Chris continued: "It's been a bit loud out there lately, but at this time we have to be more closely united and not have infighting, especially our CEO Ma

ia, please support her and care about her when I'm not there, a girl, how can you people not care about it? Okay, I'm just passing by and interjecting two mouths, you guys go on. With that, he opened the door and left, leaving only an oppressive silence in the conference room. After a while, Gu Minghui spoke first: "If everyone is not in the state today, we will open it another day, and I will give you three days to adjust." With that, she got up and left.

Gu Minghui, who returned to the office, closed the door, closed the curtains, and sat at the desk silently looking at the computer. She felt very aggrieved and helpless in her heart, if it hadn't happened for Chris passing by today, she might not be able to sit here anymore. If you can't sit here, where will you go? She didn't know, she didn't dare to imagine, she didn't dare to imagine other people's fingers, she didn't dare to imagine whether Jiang Heyang would sneer at her, and she didn't dare to imagine how embarrassed she would be. She wiped her moist eye sockets, then picked up the mouse again.

It wasn't until 11 o'clock in the evening that she packed up her papers. Then he called Li Xiaoxi and asked him to drive the car to the door of the building and prepare to go home. She took her bag, put on her coat and went down to the first floor. From a distance, I saw that Li Xiaoxi had already driven the car to the flower pond at the door. Her mind was a little empty, a little full, a bunch of fragmented memories and thoughts that were just fleeting. These memories and thoughts are over, and she doesn't think about them anymore, and she doesn't even know what she's thinking all the time. Gu Minghui walked out of the door of the hall and continued to walk towards the car, Li Xiaoxi had already gotten out of the car and helped her open the door. She was thinking that this Xiaoxi had told him many times that he didn't need him to open the door for him, but he still opened it every time. She was thinking about it when suddenly her eyes lit up, and the white light shone like the sun suddenly bursting out of the clouds, and she couldn't open her eyes. Then she felt like she was flying in the sky, her body was heavy, and gently, she seemed to see her mother, and she seemed to see Jiang Heyang, no, it should be Lu Lingfeng, that long flowing hair and handsome smile Jiang Heyang has never been. Then she felt that her head was heavy, her body was light, and she seemed to hear Li Xiaoxi calling herself, and then, no, no more.

Gu Minghui slowly opened her eyes, she felt that her head hurt so much, she supported her body with her hands and wanted to sit up, but her arms, hands, legs, and any part of her body were transmitting pain to her brain. At this time, she heard someone shouting: "Sister, you finally woke up, you are about to scare us to death." Gu Minghui forcefully moved her gaze to the source of the voice, it turned out to be Li Xiaoxi. At this time, she found that she was lying in the hospital room. Li Xiaoxi sat on the edge of the bed, and there were several people standing behind him: Amy, Alice, and Jin Zhenqiao. When they heard Li Xiaoxi calling Gu Minghui, they all gathered around. Gu Minghui wanted to speak, but felt pain all over her body and a dry throat. She touched Li Xiaoxi with her hand and said with all her strength: "What's wrong with me?" ”

"Sister, you... Ay! Li Xiaoxi's expression made Gu Minghui feel the seriousness of the matter, and she slowly put her head on the pillow again.

"Sister, don't worry, this matter must have been done by Carter's grandson, and I will definitely avenge you."

"Tell me if I'm crippled." Gu Minghui's voice was very low, and she spoke very slowly, but she was very resolute.

"Your right leg is seriously injured, but this is definitely only temporary, and the doctor said that you will recover if you do rehabilitation well."

Gu Minghui didn't speak again, but she tried her best to move her right leg, but she didn't succeed, and from there came a sharp pain, from the root of her right leg to be precise. Because her right leg had been amputated by the doctor below the base, all she had in her trousers was cold and hollow. Gu Minghui closed her eyes gently, and two lines of tears flowed out of the corners of her eyes.

In the next two days, no matter how the doctors, nurses, and Li Xiaoxi persuaded her, she didn't say a word or eat. Doctors can only add complementary foods such as glucose to the water she drinks. On the third day, Gu Minghui began to agree to eat, although she didn't eat much, but at least it made Li Xiaoxian feel a lot, knowing that her heart knot was slowly opening. And what made Li Xiaoxi feel a little more was that Gu Minghui could occasionally say a few words to herself, even if it was just for him to help get something or something. On the fourth day, Alice came over, and she said to Gu Minghui: "Mr. Gu, Carter has taken over from the company for the time being, and they say that the family can't be left without an owner for a day." So..."Li Xiaoxi quickly gave Alice a look when he heard this. Gu Minghui didn't have any expression after hearing this, as if she had already expected this matter.

In this way, Gu Minghui stayed in the hospital for more than a month, and then moved to her villa in the suburbs of New York City. This kind of life away from the hustle and bustle reminds her of Liu Yuxi's "Burrow", "There is no silk and bamboo, and there is no case". Then compared the down-and-out Liu Yuxi, he seemed to have some similarities with him, but he thought that at least he was not a humble house here, but a mansion, and it was still better than him.

But after a long time, Gu Minghui was a little unbearable, and she couldn't walk or do anything all day. Thinking about the original scenery, compared to the current downfall, she really can't swallow this breath. Although Li Xiaoxi has asked the police to investigate the matter, the perpetrator insists that he has drunk too much. Moreover, the current United States is not peaceful, the impact of Hall pneumonia and the spread of the theory of immortal evolution have made the outside a mess, and it is impossible for the police to do their best to solve the case. The longer the time dragged on, the more impatient Gu Minghui became, and her temper began to become very bad, and she would take out her anger at the maid at every turn because of some trivial things, and everyone was very careful. And every time Gu Minghui loses her temper, she also knows that it is her fault, but there is really no way to control it.

She thought about committing suicide, but she was unwilling, and she thought about returning to China, but she was even more afraid of being ridiculed. Later, she thought of Lu Lingfeng, and she might not have to worry too much about talking to him here, but now although Lu Lingfeng looks alive, it is no different from dead, and the chance of waking up is almost zero. Hate only hates that nonsense who came over and made Orion a chicken, fly and dog jump. However, her eyes lit up suddenly when she thought of Hu Ti, because she thought of the Orion base, although the Orion base has been destroyed by herself, but the secret inside is currently only known to herself, if she also makes the jade net bottle, and then seeks revenge on Carter, then... Thinking of this, a chilling weird smile actually appeared on Gu Minghui's face.

Then she shut herself up in a very secluded room, and no one was allowed to enter without her permission. She only asked Li Xiaoxi to buy the things that needed to be bought, but Li Xiaoxi couldn't enter this room either. For a long time, Li Xiaoxi felt that his cousin might be going crazy, and let himself buy some strange things all day long, he wanted to persuade her but didn't dare. Later, he told Jiang Heyang about it, but Jiang Heyang was carrying out a secret state plan and couldn't come to see her. Although there was no way to come, he still called to comfort and persuade him as soon as possible, and said that he would go over to see her as soon as he was busy with this period, Gu Minghui only said three words softly, "No need". Then he hung up the phone, smiled wryly, and cried silently on the table.

Because of Gu Minghui's understanding of the secrets of the Orion base and the understanding of the principle of the Jade Pure Bottle, the first batch of bottles was quickly completed, with a total of five bottles. The next thing is how to put Carter's soul into it, but she only knows that the soul can only leave the body after a person dies, but how can a big living person strip his soul from the body, which made Gu Minghui fall into thought. But she immediately had the answer - "Soul Record", and she began to study the book like crazy.

One early morning in June, New York was washed away by last night's heavy rain, and every corner looked a lot greener. Dressed in a white dress, carrying a small bag in her right hand and a folder under her left arm, Alice quickly walked through the deserted streets towards the Horth Building. She went upstairs into her office, then pulled out a stack of papers from the cabinet and tucked it between folders. Then he took out a cute little vase from his bag, filled it with half a bottle of water, and took out a bouquet of purple calla lilies from the balcony and inserted it into the vase. Then he took the vase and the folder and went to Carter's office. Before Carter came in the morning, Alice put the folder on his desk, put the vase with the flowers on his balcony and turned and walked out. Since Gu Minghui's car accident, Alice has temporarily worked as Carter's assistant. Every day, I will arrange a series of work for him, such as schedules, meetings, documents, etc., and will help him clean up the office and sort out various reports and documents after work. She has been an assistant to Gu Minghui for more than three years, and she is very familiar with the company's work processes, large and small affairs, and she is also very diligent and hardworking, so Gu Minghui relies on her to help herself in many things. And Gu Minghui also takes special care of her fellow countryman, often giving her more bonuses and approving some processes, and the relationship between the two is also very good. After this incident, she also knew that Carter framed Gu Minghui, but she was humble and light-hearted, so what could she do, she just knew right and wrong in her heart.

Fast forward another half a year, and the evolution of immortality in the United States has entered a white-hot state. It is their military personnel and hundreds of millions of immortalists who actually control the United States now. And Chris seems to have evaporated from the world, he has not appeared since Gu Minghui's car accident, and he has never asked about Huo Si's business, as if this company has nothing to do with him. Although Carter got his wish to get the position of CEO, this position is not as easy to sit as he imagined. The country is already reeling in the wind and rain, let alone a company. But he doesn't seem to be reconciled, he really wants to make some achievements, and he still comes to work with a mask every day, holds meetings, and reviews documents. However, recently, he felt that his head was getting more and more painful, and he was prone to nightmares at night, and he would dream that Gu Minghui would come to him on one leg to reason. He thought that maybe it was because he was too tired, so he tried to convince himself that it was okay, and it would be fine after a while. But it often backfires, and the pain has become worse and worse this week. When he went to work, he couldn't think about things at all, and he would often lie on the table in pain to rest. He asked the doctor to come and see him, but the doctor couldn't see any special symptoms, and only said that he might be too tired and that he should rest more. When the doctor told him this, he felt a little relieved, thinking that maybe he was indeed too tired, and he would be fine after a while, and he comforted himself even more.

On this day, he was looking at the computer in the office, and suddenly he had another headache, so he quickly lay down on the table and rested for a while. When I felt better, I stood up and took a sip of water from my cup, then walked to the balcony and looked into the distance. The calla lily on the balcony had grown a lot, and he looked at the plant that was still blooming in winter, and persuaded himself that he must persist and persevere, and he must not lose to the Chinese girl. Then he touched the bud that was blooming, but the moment his hand touched the flower, his whole body trembled like an electric shock, and then slowly collapsed to the ground.

The next day, the calla lilies in Carter's office were gone, and Carter himself was diagnosed in the hospital as "vegetative." Everyone is very puzzled and confused, how this good person became a vegetative person. However, a few families are happy and some are sad, some are happy and some are worried. In Gu Minghui's villa on the outskirts of the city, Alice got the two million Gu Minghui gave her and turned around and walked out.

Gu Minghui looked at the bottle in his hand, the lid on it was tightly covered, and there was a swirling mist inside. Gu Minghui's heart was unusually excited, countless swear words came to her mouth and swallowed, and countless thoughts rose and fell slowly. Her whole life was ruined by this person, so she had already thought of ten thousand ways to torture him, but now when she saw this mist, she was at a loss for a while. She took the prepared instrument and put the bottle in it, and slowly many images appeared on the computer's monitor, and she searched like she was looking at a clip. Finally she opened a video of Carter and Lowry's conversation: "Hey, did I get you to find the person you're looking for?" ”

"It's good, this guy is very reliable. When he acts, he will be asked to drink a bottle of wine, so that it will be no problem. Remember your promise when it's done. ”

"Don't worry, I'll still be able to get out of just 100 million."

"Very well, then let's our Virgin Ma

I'm going to see her God. ”

Gu Minghui was in no mood to look down anymore when she saw this, it seemed that she really didn't wronged Carter, but she hated that the villain Lori was still at large. No, I'll settle accounts with Lowry when I'm done packing up Carter. Thinking of this, she turned on a button on the instrument and pressed her face against a telescope-like object on the instrument. After about five minutes, Gu Minghui left the instrument and turned the wheelchair to the edge of a small bed with her hands, only to see her hair unkempt, her eyes straight, and her expressionless face. It took another half hour or so for her to breathe a sigh of relief. She felt full of strength and mentally better at this time. Finally she got her revenge.

It turned out that she found some inspiration from Wayne James's "Soul Record", if a person's body becomes very weak, once it comes into contact with the jade bottle, the soul is likely to be sucked out of the body. The calla lily itself has a certain toxicity, and Alice put a colorless and odorless thing called dioxin into it, which caused Carter to gradually be poisoned and finally captured by the jade bottle. But Gu Minghui did not absorb only a part of each soul like Hu Ti, but decomposed and absorbed the entire soul. And there is no real Carter in the world anymore, only a useless shell.

One after another, the CEOs of the Hoth Group fell, and the whole group fell into even more chaos. In many branches, employees even looted the company's property, and the company entered a period of rapid decline. But even more bizarre things are yet to come, and several others, such as Lowry, Stephen, Duce, and Bill, have all become vegetative ones one after another. The company's high-level is gone, the middle-level personnel have no way to manage, there is no direction, the entire Hoth Group collapsed like this, although the remaining branches still have some profitability ability, but there is no strong backup ability, and soon it will fall into trouble. And the boss Chris did not appear until the collapse of the company, because he had his own more important plans and plans, and the Hoth business no longer had much value to him, and he didn't need to take money out of it now, because he had a larger and wider source of funds, that is, Orion. The current Orion is developing very rapidly under the leadership of Hu Ti, and there are already hundreds of thousands of personnel, but they are not called Orion to the outside world, but to the outside world, they are called Masters of Eternal Life. Everyone controls tens of millions of immortalists, and in addition to China, the countries on the earth, including the United States and India, have been completely destroyed, and some of them are still alive and survive by the army, but they are all at the end of the crossbow, and their successors are powerless. The world was so firmly grasped by Chris, Hutti, and Galava. The world's population has also fallen from 7.7 billion to 5.2 billion, with most of them dying from war and plague. And the two sides of this war are the national ZF and the theory of immortal evolution. The terrible thing is that this war is still going on, and death is still going on, if there is no real opponent, soon the entire human race and the earth will collapse and collapse, and there will be no return!

"Chaotic as numb, your mind is disturbed; Under the murderous heart, you bring the god of death; In the night, war is around; Be at peace, please go to heaven"
