Inheritance of Two Trillion Chapter 2791 - 1973: Mr. Guoba’s Unexpected Situation (Part 3)
Previously on Inheritance of Two Trillion...
Upon hearing this, Bai Xiaosheng and the others immediately sighed with relief and began to laugh.
Behind him, Bai Xiaosheng’s eyes flickered slightly, and he revealed a meaningful smile.
"It’s about time, everyone, please follow me, the bidding meeting is about to start," Abbot said with a smile, inviting everyone and taking the lead out of the lounge.
Everyone nodded, each bringing an assistant and following behind Abbot.
The venue for the bidding meeting was on the same floor. After exiting the lounge, they walked down a long corridor, turned a corner, and walked a bit further to reach it.
It was a large conference room that could accommodate three hundred people.
The conference room had nameplates on the desks, showing the names of each company, and attendees only needed to take their seats according to the numbers.
There were already six people seated inside, representing three companies.
These are the three contenders for the bid. Bai Xiaosheng took a deep look at those people.
Their seats were not next to each other but interspersed among the six companies here.
After entering, everyone found their respective seats.
Before long, more people were escorted in.
Bai Xiaosheng noticed that many of these people had quite an imposing presence, presumably the government delegates and media personnel Abbot had mentioned.
They took seats in the front row, with several media staff carrying cameras and camcorders, capturing every moment.
As the host, Abbot naturally stood on stage.
In addition, there was a short, chubby elderly White man on stage, who looked to be in his sixties or seventies, but still energetic and formally dressed in a suit.
Bai Xiaosheng assessed the people on stage, turned his head, and whispered to Mr. Guoba, "Who is that old gentleman on stage?"
"That naturally... is Lan GO Company’s... general manager..."
Bai Xiaosheng heard Mr. Guoba reply in a fragmented manner, with panting sounds, and looked over curiously, only to be startled.
Just moments ago, Mr. Guoba seemed fine, but now he was frowning, with beads of sweat on his forehead, his face pale, and one hand pressed against his stomach under the table.
"What’s wrong with you?" Bai Xiaosheng immediately asked.
Could he be suddenly ill?
"My stomach, ouch ouch..."
As soon as Mr. Guoba spoke, his expression twisted, teeth clenched as he inhaled sharply.
Undoubtedly, it was that cup of coffee mixed with fragrant tea causing some reaction; Bai Xiaosheng realized instantly, both amused and exasperated.
Who dares to mix drinks like that? Even claiming expert endorsements... isn’t this self-inflicted?
"How are you, are you okay, maybe you should go to the restroom first," Bai Xiaosheng kindly suggested.
"No way, this is too important an occasion, I have to endure," Mr. Guoba staunchly replied.
Bai Xiaosheng sighed inwardly and chose not to insist further.
On stage, the bidding meeting was announced to begin.
Abbot, brimming with enthusiasm, invited the government representative to give a speech.
The representative offered some modest words and gave a speech lasting about ten minutes, mainly filled with expressions of gratitude.
Afterward, Abbot invited the general manager to speak.
"First of all, thank you all for attending," said the general manager with a warm smile.
"Boom." A peculiar noise erupted.
The general manager paused, others following the sound with their eyes.
Mr. Guoba was also startled, quickly squeezing out a smile to respond to the gazes.
The fart just now was purely accidental.
The general manager restrained his expression and continued to smile, "Here, I want to thank our leaders and friends from the media for attending..."
"Boom boom."
This time, there was a double detonation.
Knowing the source of the noise, the general manager feigned composure and attempted to proceed with his speech.
"Thank you all for preparing so carefully for Lan GO Company’s bidding meeting, and I hope everyone will have the opportunity to cooperate..."
"Boom boom boom..."
Before the applause could start, the series of sounds grew even louder.
On stage, the general manager finally couldn’t help but look over, and Abbot also glanced with a complicated expression.
Mr. Guoba was already sprawled on the table, face buried in his arms.
Bai Xiaosheng turned his face to the side, pretending not to know him.
The general manager, feeling frustrated, waited for a second, and seeing silence ensued, just opened his mouth to continue when a "pff" sounded.
The sound echoed melodiously.
In an instant, the faces of the general manager and Vice President Abbot turned utterly grim.
Everyone, including the government representative, wore an indescribable expression.
Mr. Guoba could no longer bear it, dashed out while covering his stomach and butt, shouting on his way out, "Sorry, I need to use the restroom first—"
