"If the higher-ups ask, just deny it and they can't do anything about it."

"After all, we've seen you before. If you disappear without a trace, we'll definitely ask."

"Don't worry, the person behind you won't be so stupid as to target you. He'll be in trouble soon. If you make a contribution then, your future will be much brighter than it is now."

The young guard was swayed by Sheng Yueqing's words.

"Okay, I'll write it."

Sheng Yueqing asked him to write it on her palm.

There are three names in total.

She remembered it.

Close your palms together, then open them again; your palms will be empty.

Ten minutes passed quickly, and the guards let Mr. Sheng out.

When the door was opened, Sheng Yueqing saw Sheng Jingheng inside.

Sheng Jingheng also saw her and nodded to her.

That one glance seemed to convey a great deal.

Sheng Yueqing gestured to him, meaning that we will save you, brother, don't be afraid.

Sheng Jingheng was deeply moved; with his family by his side, his confidence indeed increased significantly.

Mr. Sheng just asked him to listen to the recording.

Sheng Jingheng listened carefully and quickly recognized the sound.

"It's Chu Wenhao."

The Chu family had three generations of officials, and all of them held relatively high positions.

Old Master Chu has a kind face but a ruthless heart.

He seems to get along well with everyone, but when a friend gets into trouble, he's the first to distance himself from the situation.

Chu's father inherited his grandfather's mantle; he looked very kind, but he was sweet-talking yet ruthless.

The Chu family is very good at maintaining appearances, always appearing friendly to everyone and never having a falling out with anyone, which is why they have been able to stay in their positions.

When it came to Chu Wenhao's generation, they followed suit.

He was about the same age as Sheng Jingheng, but because he was quick-witted and clever, he managed to rise to a position similar to Sheng Jingheng's.

He gets along well with everyone at work, especially his superiors.

He was always extremely attentive to his superiors, handling their affairs with great consideration, and would even spend his own money to complete every task assigned by his superiors.

His superiors all praised him for his competence and said he would definitely have a bright future.

Chu Wenhao felt that since his boss liked him so much, he would definitely be able to reach the position of Shengjing Heng in the future.

After all, his family background was better than Sheng Jingheng's, and he was also better at interpersonal relationships.

He never heard his superiors praise Sheng Jingheng; on the contrary, they always criticized him.

Unfortunately, when it came to selecting talent, his superiors all chose Sheng Jingheng, which made him very unhappy.

But he didn't dare question his superior, so he could only ask Sheng Jingheng.

"Did you steal my seat? Otherwise, why is it you who sat down and not me?"

He felt that Mr. Sheng must have bribed his superior.

After all, Mr. Sheng held a very high position, even higher than his grandfather.

So the boss probably let Sheng Jingheng sit there out of respect for Mr. Sheng.

Sheng Jingheng listened to his musings but offered no explanation. He turned and left without even glancing at Chu Wenhao.

Chu Wenhao clenched his fists in anger at being ignored by him.

Earlier, he had heard many colleagues say that Sheng Jingheng was bad at interpersonal relationships and that he was incorruptible, so it was best not to mess with him.

Many colleagues call him the Cold-Faced King of Hell, saying he is ruthless and heartless.

Ironically, this kind of person keeps getting promoted.

He had never seen Sheng Jingheng buy anything for his superiors, nor did he know how to behave. Why should someone else be promoted faster than him?

Chu Wenhao went to his superior to report the matter, but his superior said, "He is indeed not as meticulous as you, but he is very capable and the company still needs him."

"But Wenhao, you did a good job too. Keep working hard to complete the tasks assigned by your superiors. The more merits you make, the more likely you are to be promoted."

It means he didn't achieve enough merit.

Chu Wenhao felt he had lost face.

Go back and get to work.

Unfortunately, he was slow at doing things, and even if he spent more money, he was still not as efficient as Sheng Jingheng.

After a while, his superior finally praised Shengjing Heng in front of him.

That time, he was so angry that his face turned ashen.

He felt that Sheng Jingheng was going against him.

Seeing Sheng Jingheng rising step by step, almost reaching Mr. Sheng's position.

He had no choice but to find a way to break through.

He happened to hear about the old man who died in the mountains, and that's when he started making arrangements.

But he couldn't possibly do it so discreetly on his own.

Because of his cold-blooded personality and incorruptibility, Sheng Jingheng made many enemies.

So he went to those people to cooperate.

The death of the old man in the mountains was just the beginning.

Once this matter is proven true, a continuous stream of cases involving corruption and abuse of power by Shengjing Heng will emerge.

At that point, Sheng Jingheng will just want to find evidence. With so much solid evidence, he won't be able to turn the tables at all.

Therefore, Shanlin must win this round.

"Do you know this Chu Wenhao?"

Sheng Jingheng nodded.

He also guessed that Chu Wenhao had framed him for this incident.

He had a way to turn the tide, but because all his men had been transferred away and were stuck here, he had no one to use.

Mr. Sheng was both angry and heartbroken to see him locked up in such a small room.

"You're not even a real prisoner, yet we're locking you up like this, it's utterly absurd!"

Even if all the blame is directed at Sheng Jingheng, he is not a criminal as long as there is no trial and verdict.

Talented people who were once highly regarded are being treated like this.

Mr. Sheng's first self-doubt led Sheng Jingheng to rise through the ranks. Was he really doing the right thing?

He once felt that sitting in such a high position was not necessarily a good thing.

Isn't he a perfect example?

You work hard your whole life, but in the end, you get nothing in return.

It might even affect the children.

Even Sheng Jingheng, because he was always encouraged to strive for advancement, worked hard.

As a result of all my hard work, I was locked in this dark room.

Like a prisoner, unable to go in or out.
