CHAPTER 803: CHAPTER 803: THE WHITE FLOWER SNAKE WHO COMMANDS A HUNDRED RESPONSES (PART 6)
"Yes. I want to purchase the shares they currently hold." Gu Nuan said.
"Aren’t you thinking a bit simplistically?" Wa Zicong lowered his voice and suddenly spoke to her with an earnest tone, "Those people, you still don’t know their true nature, I advise you—"
"Does Chairman Wu think I’m overestimating myself?"
Her voice was steady without being overbearing, yet her delicate eyebrows projected a frighteningly noble aura of authority.
Wa Zicong felt his tongue tie up on the spot.
Gu Nuan calmly said, "What you need to do, Chairman Wu, is very simple, just do as I say. Has Chairman Wu still not fully understood the lessons from past experiences?"
Wa Zicong’s face turned pale and then green again.
When it came to investment perspective, he was indeed no match for her. For instance, the property they invested in when they were still a couple, her return on investment was a thousand times his.
And consider the woman he chose — he let go of the most valuable woman before him, committing the most regretful act of his life.
"Alright." Wa Zicong suddenly changed his tone, as if conceding to her, almost trying to please her, and said, "Miss Gu, just say whatever you need."
Gu Nuan’s eyes swept sharply over his face, like her previous words, most of what he said was untrustworthy. However, there were times when it was.
Chen Jiaming finally found a gap to insert himself into the conversation, speaking, "If you want to truly become the master of Changda, merely acquiring the existing shares of Changda on the market may not be enough—"
"I understand what Chairman Chen means, but someone once told me, and I believe you’ve heard it too, in this world, having money lets one act willfully."
Listening to her, she indeed intends to swallow Changda whole.
Chen Jiaming, Wa Zicong, and the others were stunned again; where did she get so much money?
Changda is a publicly traded company with assets worth hundreds of billions. To gain control of Changda, one would need shares worth billions. How could one gather such a large amount of funds in such a short time? It’s easier said than done.
If it were possible, then back when Changda faced a hostile takeover crisis, just to acquire a few percent more shares than the opponent, Xiao Family’s daughters ran around seeking cooperative investors, to the point of being bloodied and bruised, yet achieved nothing. In terms of connections and influence, Xiao Shumei and others had been in this circle for much longer than Gu Nuan, surely with far more advantages, and still, the result was such.
Everyone fell silent.
Li Changzhi secretly squinted his eyes: Thinking about this Gu Nuan, she’s arrogantly heading for a fall, it’s probably just a matter of days now.

Xiao Shuzhu, Xiao Shuju, and Xiao Shulan sat together.
Each held a cup of tea or coffee, heads lowered in thought.
Xiao Shuzhu was the first to speak, saying, "Isn’t Dad being a bit too much this time?"
"Too much?" Xiao Shuju wasn’t impressed, "Say what you will, that’s grandma, Dad’s own mother."
Many men face such a dilemma, when their mother and wife both jump into the river, he can only save one, who to choose.
Some use many analytical methods to dissect the situation, attempting to use various rational reasons to justify their choice. But in fact, this does not conceal the awkwardness at all.
Actually, at that moment, who still has reasoning to speak of, they’re only swayed by the emotional balance.
It is clear that in Xiao Jianming’s heart, the old lady is the most important, and everything else, including his wife, son, and grandson, doesn’t measure up to a strand of the old lady’s hair.
