Chapter 50 Company Bankruptcy
Bai Yishu glanced at her father on the bed through the hospital window, and without saying a word, she ran out of the hospital.
She hailed a taxi at the hospital entrance and gave them her company's address.
Fu Xiu's words lingered in her mind, but whether they were true or false, she had to go and see for herself.
Upon arriving at the company, Bai Yishu ignored the receptionist's attempts to stop her and rushed into the CFO's office via elevator.
She pushed open the office door and slammed her hand on the desk in front of her.
"Give me the financial statements."
The CFO was visibly taken aback when he saw her, and when he heard that she wanted the financial statements, he avoided her gaze.
"Miss Bai, what brings you here so late..."
He hesitated for a moment, then slowly opened the safe and took out the report.
"Give me!"
The CFO was intimidated by her imposing manner, his hand trembled and he almost dropped the report, so he quickly handed it to her.
"Miss Bai, please don't worry, everything is here..."
He kept his head down, not daring to look at Bai Yishu, secretly wondering about her purpose in suddenly appearing.
Bai Yishu flipped through the pages one by one, her brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
The CFO waited anxiously to the side, beads of sweat forming on his forehead, his hands unconsciously clenching and unclenching.
"Miss Bai...is there a problem?"
His voice trembled slightly, and his eyes kept glancing at the report in Bai Yishu's hand.
Bai Yishu pointed to several places on the report and questioned him.
"Why hasn't the money invested been recovered?"
"this……"
The CFO's face turned deathly pale instantly, but he kept stammering and couldn't get a clear answer.
"Miss Bai, there are some complicated reasons behind this, which cannot be explained in a short time..."
His eyes darted around, and he was trying to figure out how to brush it off.
Bai Yishu slammed the papers on the table, her voice growing louder.
"I want to hear the truth."
The CFO trembled slightly, hesitated for a long time, and finally broke down in tears.
"Miss Bai, I'm telling you... it's the chairman. His investment failed, and all that money went down the drain!"
After he finished speaking, he lowered his head, not daring to look at Bai Yishu's reaction.
Bai Yishu's heart sank heavily as she realized that what Fu Xiu said was true, and that she was the only one who had been kept in the dark.
She was silent for a moment, her voice sounding somewhat desperate.
Is there a problem with the company's cash flow?
The CFO's legs went weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground, barely managing to stand by holding onto the table.
"Ms. Bai, as you know... the company's cash flow has dried up, and it's on the verge of collapse. The banks are also pressing for loan repayments..."
Bai Yishu continued flipping through the reports, her fingertips trembling uncontrollably.
"How much money do I need to repay the bank?"
"The bank loan... with interest, will cost a total of 100 million to repay."
The CFO seemed to have all his strength drained away, and leaned against the table.
"Ms. Bai, the company really can't hold on any longer..."
Bai Yishu pursed her lips and leaned back in her chair without saying a word.
Seeing her silence, the CFO didn't dare to utter a sound.
"Miss Bai, the chairman is also trying to find a solution, but... there really is no other way now."
"When did it start?"
He hesitated for a moment, but still answered truthfully: "About half a year ago, the chairman invested in a new project, but unexpectedly lost everything, and since then the company's cash flow has been tight..."
"What new project?"
The CFO's lips trembled, as if he hesitated whether to speak, but finally he sighed.
"It's a real estate project. The chairman heard from others that the location had great development potential, so he invested in it. But it turns out that the land has serious geological problems and is completely undevelopable!"
The CFO's voice was on the verge of collapse, his hand helplessly pressed against his forehead.
"All the initial investment went down the drain, and we're now drowning in debt..."
"But by then it was too late. The project was halted, the money couldn't be recovered, and the bank loan was due..."
Bai Yishu sighed, leaned back in her chair, and stared blankly at the ceiling.
"How could this happen..."
The CFO wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his voice still trembling.
"Miss Bai, there's one more thing..."
He bit his lip, seemingly struggling with whether or not to tell her.
"What is it?"
He glanced around and lowered his voice, saying, "The chairman... in order to cover the losses, he secretly misappropriated the company's working capital, and now the company's accounts are empty."
Bai Yishu looked at him in shock, completely unable to believe that the company had reached this point.
She clenched her fists and braced herself on the table, her helplessness growing stronger.
"I understand... I'll figure something out."
"Miss Bai, you absolutely must find a way!"
The CFO was grasping at a straw, practically kneeling before Bai Yishu.
"Otherwise, the company will go bankrupt, and we employees..."
"How much is needed in total?"
He was slightly taken aback, but quickly realized that Bai Yishu was asking about the amount needed to cover all the deficits, and his voice trembled.
"At least another two hundred million is needed, not including interest and penalties for breach of contract..."
He dared not look Bai Yishu in the eye, and stared down at the ground.
"Miss Bai, this is an astronomical figure..."
Bai Yishu felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, but she still forced herself to stand up, her legs trembling uncontrollably.
"Miss Bai!"
When the CFO saw that she was unsteady, he instinctively stepped forward to help her, but then quickly withdrew his hand as if afraid of offending her.
"Are you alright? This is such a serious incident, can you manage on your own?"
"I'm fine..."
Bai Yishu walked out of the office, feeling her steps were a little light.
She walked out of the company building in a daze, and without the slightest hesitation, immediately returned to the hospital to ask her father for confirmation.
The father in the hospital bed had already woken up. He looked exhausted. When he saw Bai Yishu's condition when she entered the ward, he understood and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes.
"Yi Shu, you've arrived..."
His voice was weak, and each word seemed to require all his strength to speak.
"You know about what's going on at the company, right?"
Bai Yishu sat on a chair to the side and nodded without saying a word.
The father slowly closed his eyes, and a tear gradually slid down the corner of his eye.
"It's all my fault, Dad. I've ruined our family and our company..."
As soon as his father finished speaking, his breathing became rapid again.
Bai Yishu quickly stepped forward to comfort him, fearing that his emotional outburst would affect his recovery.
"Please don't get agitated. I'll figure out a way to handle things at the company."
The father struggled to open his eyes, his gaze filled with worry and heartache.
"Yi Shu, that's no small sum. What can you do... Don't ruin yourself for the company."
Bai Yishu shook her head, holding back her tears as she comforted her father, but she had already made a decision in her heart.
