Chapter 322: Your lack of ability

Gu Dai was about to tell Gu Yin that such thinking was not right, but seeing that Gu Yin had already closed her eyes, she shook her head in resignation and quietly closed the door as she left.

Exiting the room, Gu Dai saw Wu Zhen hurrying towards her.

Gu Dai asked in confusion, “Uncle Wu, what’s the matter?”

Wu Zhen quickly reported, “Miss, I need to inform you about something. There’s an undercover agent planted by Gu Ming in our villa.”

Gu Dai’s brows furrowed, “What’s going on?”

Wu Zhen explained, “I’ve identified him. The mole, Li Shui, hired by Gu Ming, has been inquiring about you recently and even met with Gu Ming today.”

Gu Dai nodded, “Okay, I got it.”

Wu Zhen, not hearing further instructions from Gu Dai, chose not to inquire about how to deal with Li Shui, trusting in her judgment.

Back in her room, Gu Dai contacted her sources to investigate Gu Ming and soon had results.

Li Shui had informed Gu Ming about the company’s plan to launch a Suzhou embroidery project. Gu Ming was now contacting shareholders, hoping they would oppose it, and several had already responded.

Gu Dai had planned to announce the Suzhou embroidery project in a few days, but with Gu Ming causing trouble, she decided to move up the timeline and deal with him sooner.

The next day, the shareholders gathered in the Gu Group’s meeting room.

Dressed in a sleek black suit, Gu Dai’s composed gaze made the shareholders instinctively lower their heads as she scanned the room.

After Zheng Ming distributed the documents, Gu Dai spoke, “I’ve called you here today to make an announcement.”

Wang Huai interjected, “I oppose the Suzhou embroidery cooperation!”

Yang Gao followed suit, “I also oppose it. The embroidery process is tedious and lacks market demand. It’s clearly a loss-making venture. Didn’t you see what happened to Wu Corporation last year? They went bankrupt trying to pursue Suzhou embroidery.”

Lin Hong added, “If it fails, we shareholders will be the ones affected.”

As the three of them led the charge, the other shareholders joined in, creating a commotion in the meeting room.

Gu Dai watched them argue coldly, waiting for the noise to die down before speaking, “How did you know I was going to discuss Suzhou embroidery?”

The three were taken aback, not expecting this question.

Wang Huai, glancing at the documents in front of him, hastily said, “Didn’t you just distribute these documents?”

Yang Gao and Lin Hong, regaining their senses, echoed, “Yes, we just saw them. How else would we know?”

In reality, they had received information from Gu Ming the previous night, but they dared not speak the truth now.

Gu Dai didn’t expose them, nodding as if believing their story. She firmly stated, “I believe Suzhou embroidery has market potential, and today’s meeting is not to discuss but to inform you of this decision. You need to rein in your opposition.”

The three, still sweating from Gu Dai’s unexpected question, felt discontent but didn’t dare voice it.

Gu Dai continued, “According to market research…”

Gu Ming interrupted, “Gu Dai, as the president, you should listen to the shareholders, think of the big picture, not make stubborn decisions like a child, disregarding the collective interest of the company.”

Gu Dai looked up towards the door and saw Gu Ming, a smile on his face, slowly walking in.

Seeing Gu Dai silent, Gu Ming assumed she was frightened and continued, “I once initiated a Suzhou embroidery project too. In reality, it was unfeasible. Luckily, I realized something was amiss in time and didn’t pursue it further, or the Gu Group would have surely gone bankrupt.”

Gu Ming added, “And now, you’re hell-bent on starting a Suzhou embroidery project. If it’s not due to your lack of insight, then it must be a malicious intent to sabotage everyone in the company!”

Having finally found a fault in Gu Dai, Gu Ming was eager to pin all the blame on her. In the process, he subtly praised his own foresight, showcasing his capability in hopes of regaining control of the Gu Group.

Gu Dai, leaning back in her chair with her arms crossed, waited for Gu Ming to finish. Then, fixing him with a direct gaze, she retorted, “Your failure was due to your lack of ability, but I have the ability.. I won’t fail!”
