C527 As Expected
In order to surprise Xiao Chen, Chu Huaiyu never told him about her pregnancy.
This could be considered a little of her thoughts.
Apart from this reason, there was also another reason why she knew that what Xiao Chen was doing right now was very important.
With her understanding of Xiao Chen, if she really knew that she was pregnant, she was afraid that she would rush back without a care.
Currently, the matter of the fake Beauty Pill had caused the entire Chu family to be in a state of panic.
The disfigured face caused by the Beauty Pill had affected the reputation of the platform.
Compared to the initial shock, the pressure on the Zhang's was much smaller.
However, since a few days ago, the situation had changed.
In the beginning, the netizens, no, it should be more accurate to say that it was the navy.
They only left messages and posted posts, attempting to prevent the Dawn Jade Platform from distributing health products such as Beauty Pill.
After the fake medicine incident quickly broke out, they even resisted the Dawn Jade Platform for a time.
However, the effects of these resistances were not very obvious.
The reason was that the Morning Jade platform was the only sales platform on the Beauty Pill line.
Whether it was overseas or within Country H, there were specialized transport companies. Hence, there was no phenomenon of fake medicine mixing in.
As for the real consumers, he did not have any problems eating them.
It would be better to say that after the online sales were restricted a few times due to public opinion, although the Morning Jade platform's comments on the forum had caused an uproar, in a short period of time, the sales had obviously warmed up.
This was also one of the reasons why Chu Huaiyu was not in a hurry.
But the good times did not last long. Not long after that. The business owners of the Dawn Jade Platform, especially the brands of many Merchant Union members, had problems one after another.
It didn't seem to be a big problem to bring them out alone.
However, the Dawn Jade Platform was the gathering place for these brands, but it was slandered by the internet as a problem product concentration camp.
Those products weren't as unique as Beauty Pill.
For example, electrical appliances.
For the same type of electrical appliances, there were as many as the manufacturer wanted. The sales of these products, which were rumored to be problematic, dropped sharply.
This directly affected the reputation and profits of the Dawn Jade Platform.
At the same time, it also affected these Merchant Union members.
This was the main reason why Chu Huaiyu didn't even bother to go to the hospital. She was busy every day.
Today, it was her parents who were so worried that they forcefully brought her here.
This time, just as she finished checking, she immediately rushed back to the company.
Before she even entered, she saw the secretary's tightly knitted brows.
"What happened again?" These few days, this seemed to have become her catchphrase.
"Director Chu, I just received news that Du, the Du family suddenly sent an invitation to all the families of the Merchant Union!" As she spoke, the secretary's voice was very low, but she could not hide the worry in her voice.
"Got it. Where's the invitation?" Chu Huaiyu did not think too much about it.
They were all family. They had already decided on the direction of cooperation in the future.
Occasionally, they would have a meal together. It was not a big deal.
However, as soon as she finished asking, the secretary's eyes darkened.
She mumbled, as if she wanted to say something, but she seemed hesitant.
Chu Huaiyu could not help but ask, and only then did she explain, "The strange thing is that we did not receive an invitation. I also asked President Gu and President Lin about it earlier. They also, did not..."
"What did you say?" Chu Huaiyu was still in a daze. She stared into the secretary's eyes and asked word by word.
"Actually, it's not just them. I also called to confirm with Chief Zhang. As for Miss Mu, none, none..."
The secretary's voice became lower and lower and it could be seen that Chu Huaiyu's expression was gradually turning ugly.
"When did this happen?"
"The invitation should have been sent out last night. The promised event was tonight, and it was in Shangyu!"
"Then how did you know?" After thinking about it carefully, Chu Huaiyu did not receive even half a strand of hair from the invitation.
"This morning, CEO Ming called to contact you, but you are not here. I was the one who answered the call. He asked me to pass the message to you!"
The secretary did not hide anything and directly told him everything that needed to be said.
When Chu Huaiyu heard this, her brows knitted tighter and tighter. Not to mention the location, just the Du family excluding the families on the Chu Zhang Alliance line was worth considering.
"Pass down the order, hurry up and prepare a batch of invitation cards. Tonight, I will also invite those families from the Merchant Union to have a meal!"
"But the time..."
" If the real thing doesn't work, then it will be an electronic invitation card. In short, the more exquisite and gorgeous it is, the better! "
Chu Huaiyu frowned and instructed. After she finished speaking, she shook her arm and walked into the office.
Zhang Xiaoxiao, Lin Xie, and Gu Zhaonian received her call immediately. They held a simple meeting online. The topic was obviously the sudden actions of those bastards from the Du family this time.
Also, what topic should they make for tonight's dinner?
As time passed, the afternoon did not pass very slowly. It was better to say that it was still a little fast.
In order to produce invitation cards, Chu Huaiyu had booked the venue for the banquet in the bar earlier that morning.
At ten o'clock in the evening, she called for the driver to send her to the dining area.
Zhang Xiaoxiao, Gu Zhaonian, Lin Xie's first secretary, as well as the representative from the Ye family, Ming Xun, and the representative sent by Muh Zixun arrived one after another. They were all familiar faces. They looked at each other and had nothing to say to each other.
As the organizer of this meal, Chu Huaiyu naturally played the role of host and host.
She invited everyone to take a seat, but she was not in a hurry to start the meal.
After walking through the evening, the night sky became increasingly dense.
Hu Yifei was the only one who waited left and right. He could only sense that the other people from the Tai family and Qiu family had come.
As for the other families, they were nowhere to be seen at more than nine o'clock. There was not even half a contact.2
They had maintained a calm appearance.
However, when they looked at the sparse crowd, their expressions suddenly became serious.
"As expected?" Chu Huaiyu's expression was deep as she sighed in her heart.
Although she was the chairman of the Merchant Union, she knew very well that there was only one core member of the Merchant Union, and that was Xiao Chen.
Once the core was gone, the Merchant Union would disappear completely. The only thing that could still appear here was a little bit of morality.
However, looking at the people from the Tai family and Qiu family, Chu Huaiyu could not help but smile bitterly.
Even if someone came, the weight of the person who did not come was much lighter than before. It was to the extent that the scene was somewhat awkward.
"First of all, thank you all for listening to this Chu's willful request while you were busy. But now it seems that there are some things that are not suitable to be discussed today. However, since you're here, there's no need to be polite."
Chu Huaiyu did not say any opening remarks and directly called a group of people to eat. She ate very slowly on purpose and admired the expressions of the people.
