Chapter 171: In a state of confusion

Zhou Qi'an took a look and explained, "That's a new product sent by President An. He originally wanted to cooperate with us."

"New Products"

“Yes, it’s said to be an intelligent companion robot, but Mr. Shen didn’t agree. It’s still in the investigation stage.”

“…”

Shen Nuo finally realized that she had made a mistake. The thing she had been worried about for so long turned out to be a misunderstanding.

But in this case, Shen Huai's safety becomes even more worrying, and the existence of the protagonist's halo has become questionable.

After receiving the news from Fu Chuji, Shen Nuo stood up and prepared to go downstairs. Just as she reached the door, Zhou Qian called her again.

“Miss Shen, Mr. Shen should be fine, don’t worry too much.”

He was afraid that Shen Nuo would worry too much and collapse first. Now Shen Huai's condition was unclear, and the company might have to rely on her to support it.

Shen Nuo nodded and said, "You should go back and rest. If you collapse from exhaustion, I really don't know what to do."

"I will." Zhou Qian responded seriously.

As soon as Shen Nuo went out, she saw Fu Chuji's car parked in front. She gathered her coat and walked over quickly.

As soon as she got in the car, he handed her a bag containing a box of cake rolls.

Shen Nuo took it and heard him ask again: "How is the situation?"

"There's been no progress. I don't understand the company's situation, so I have to leave a lot of things to Brother Zhou."

She took out a cake roll and nibbled on it. "I can't get in touch with that blogger either. If nothing unexpected happens, someone must be behind this."

It just happened to happen at this time. Just as the news came out, an earthquake occurred in Lincheng and Shen Huai disappeared. It was such a coincidence, it seemed as if the other party knew about the earthquake in advance.

If Shen Huai was still there, she wouldn't be as flustered as she is now.

Wait...if Lu Zhiyi is really a reborn person as she guessed, then wouldn't he know about this?

She was just wondering if Lu Zhiyi had done this when her cell phone vibrated.

It was a text message from an unknown number:

【Would you consider begging me? Maybe I'll soften my heart.】

As soon as Shen Nuo heard the tone, she knew who it was. She clenched her phone tightly and replied with two words with a sullen face.

When Lu Zhiyi saw the word "silly" she sent him, he didn't get angry but laughed out loud.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his lips curled up:

"You're really stubborn."

He thought about the scene not long ago when she knelt in front of him and begged him to help her again. She was completely different from now.

He wanted to see how long she could hold on. Even if she was a little different from what he remembered, no matter how much a person changed, how much difference could there be?

Without Shen Huai, what can she do?

Lu Zhiyi casually put his phone into his pocket, raised his lips happily, poured a glass of red wine, put it to his lips and sipped it slowly.

.

The next morning, Shen Nuo didn't even have breakfast. He just grabbed a piece of bread and ate it as breakfast.

She also said to Fu Chuji: "I will drive to the company by myself today. I may not be done with my work at any time, so you don't have to come to pick me up."

He paused and said okay.

Shen Nuo arrived early, but the reporters arrived even earlier. This time, not only did they surround the gate, but even the garage entrance was blocked, and many employees were blocked outside.

She had no choice but to stop the car. As soon as she stopped, the reporters noticed her and swarmed over. Some of them banged on the car windows, while others held up cameras and kept filming her.

Shen Nuo's eyes were hurt by the flash, she frowned and covered her face with her hands.

"Ms. Shen, do you have any explanation for the hygiene issues exposed at the Yunting Hotel?"

"After the incident, Shen Group has not responded, and Shen Huai has not appeared. Is it because of guilty conscience?"

"A hotel manager dares to threaten people like this. Is this the way the Shen Group usually acts?"

The questions thrown by the reporter were more tricky than the last, and Shen Nuo had no way to answer them. She couldn't even open the car door.

Fortunately, the security personnel finally noticed the situation here and stepped forward to expel the reporters. Only then did Shen Nuo reluctantly open the car door and get out.

She walked forward under the escort of security. The reporters continued to ask various questions. Shen Nuo took a deep breath and said calmly:

"I'm aware of all the issues you mentioned. The Shen Group will give you an explanation soon."

But her words could not shut up the reporters. They rushed to ask:

"I heard that Shen's Group has been contacting that blogger. Are they trying to coerce or bribe him into shutting up?"

"Why is Yunting Hotel still operating after such a terrible incident?"

"I heard that the Shen Group donated a batch of supplies to the disaster area in Lincheng yesterday. Are they trying to atone for their sins and gain peace of mind?"

Hearing the last question, Shen Nuo frowned.

"First of all, the original intention of Shen Group to donate this batch of supplies was just to help the disaster area, not to atone for the sins you mentioned. We will continue to deliver supplies and organize rescue work in the future."

She paused, her tone growing heavier. "Please don't use this natural disaster as a means to attack the Shen Group. You are a person first, and a reporter second."

After she finished speaking, she ignored the reporters and walked straight into the company gate.

The reporter looked at her from behind, rolled his eyes, and whispered, "What are you so proud of? It's nothing great."

As soon as Shen Nuo went upstairs, he saw Zhou Qi'an on the phone:

"Be careful on the road. Don't forget what I said when you get to Lincheng. Yes, be careful and don't let others know."

Shen Nuo didn't disturb him. She walked into Shen Huai's office, turned on the computer and started looking for information.

Not long after, Zhou Qi'an hung up the phone, came in and said to her:

"The IP addresses of the people you asked me to check yesterday have been found. Their networks all belong to the same IP address. Someone must have deliberately hired them to discredit us."

Shen Nuo had guessed it a long time ago, and after receiving the text message, she was certain that Lu Zhiyi must have done it.

She reminded: "Preserve the evidence first."

This alone is not enough to win this comeback battle.

Shen Nuo asked again: "Have you found out which branch the person in the video is in charge of?"

"No, he didn't show his face. It might be hard to find him."

The video shows only the man below the neck, with a plaque of Yunting Hotel hanging on his chest, but no name.

Shen Nuo was no longer surprised, she said calmly: “It’s normal, maybe that person is not the person in charge of our hotel at all.”

"I have the same guess."

"Let's investigate first and wait until we have other evidence."
