Chapter 58 Black Hot Search【VIP】

Gu Shaochen hung up the phone, his face terribly gloomy.

"Grandpa, something happened at the company. I'll bring Ying'er to see you in a couple of days."

Bai Qingying suddenly felt a surge of panic for no reason, and a voice in her heart told her that if she left now, she might never have the chance to step into the Gu family's old house again in her life.

She twisted her fingers together unconsciously, "Shaochen, wait for us..."

After catching a glimpse of Gu Shaochen's stern face, she didn't say the rest of the words.

Old Master Gu frowned and slammed his cane against the floor, making a dull sound. "I don't care what happens in your company or who you marry, but Chang'an is the male heir of my Gu family. You must bring him back to me!"

Gu Shaochen's eyes flickered, and unexpectedly he did not refute. He snorted coldly and strode towards the door.

Half an hour later, the lights in the Gu Group building were on, and the atmosphere in the conference room was so heavy that it could have squeezed water out of it.

Bai Qingying sat quietly in the corner. She pressed her chest. The feeling of panic suddenly appeared and quickly disappeared, as if it was her own imagination.

She looked at Gu Shaochen standing in front of the big screen listening to the report, and pouted a little aggrieved.

Gu Shaochen, this bastard, didn't even bother to send her home first. She didn't have dinner tonight and she was so hungry that she was about to faint.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she quietly took out her mobile phone, the screen lit up, and a hot search hung high above the lock screen.

#Yan Zhuyin deliberately pushed Zhou Miaoting into the water#

She paddled away without interest. The Bai and Zhou families lived close to each other. Zhou Miaoting was the eldest daughter of the Zhou family. She had looked down on her as an illegitimate daughter since she was a child. She had done this kind of framing thing to her many times when she was a child.

Bai Qingying saw that everyone in the conference room was looking at the data charts on the screen. Judging from the deadlock, it could not be resolved in a short time. She made up an excuse to Gu Shaochen and asked the driver to take her home.

"Haven't you figured out who's behind this yet?" Gu Shaochen's face turned pale, his sharp eyes sweeping over everyone in the conference room.

Secretary Wang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Mr. Gu, we only found out that three companies suddenly sold our stock at the same time, and then several hedge funds followed suit and shorted it, which created a chain reaction."

"What a bunch of rubbish!" Gu Shaochen turned to look at the head of the securities department, the suppressed anger in his eyes almost bursting out, "How long can our liquidity last?"

The analyst pointed to the data chart and said solemnly, "If Gu's stock continues to plummet when the market opens tomorrow, we may need to use our reserve funds to stabilize the stock price."

Gu Shaochen took a deep breath and said, "Secretary Wang, contact these institutions and ask them to support the stock price when the market opens tomorrow. Then send someone to continue investigating. We must find out who is behind this attack on our Gu Corporation!"

"Yes, Mr. Gu."

Just after midnight, when Gu Shaochen was feeling extremely anxious, the phone on the table vibrated several times.

In order not to miss any news, he quickly picked it up and found that it was a system notification sent by the Civil Affairs Bureau.

"Dear Mr. Gu Shaochen: The divorce agreement between you and Ms. Song Lansheng has been finalized. Divorce certificate number 12314*****. Please keep the relevant documents safe. Any subsequent changes to the agreement will require further negotiation or litigation."

Gu Shaochen stared at the lines of words, his thumb hovering above the screen, as if nailed by something invisible. He couldn't describe the feeling in his heart.

Feeling lost, relieved, or something else entirely.

“…Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu!”

Gu Shaochen slowly put down his phone, frowned and looked up unhappily, his voice a little hoarse, "What's the point of yelling?"

Secretary Wang didn't notice his abnormality and excitedly handed the tablet to Gu Shaochen: "The other party suddenly canceled the order!"

The conference room suddenly became quiet, and everyone turned to the large central screen. The originally dense sell orders were disappearing at an astonishing speed.

"What's going on? Why did the other party suddenly stop?" The director of the securities department rubbed his eyes and said in disbelief.

Gu Shaochen quickly walked to the screen, frowning tightly. "Let's check again to see if they have moved to the dark pool."

"No, they really canceled the order." The securities department analyst quickly tapped on the keyboard and retrieved the real-time data.

"Strange..." Gu Shaochen rubbed his brows, his eyes filled with fatigue. "Send someone to continue monitoring, and the others can go back and rest first."

In the room, Li Yingqi was applying medicine to Yan Jie.

He frowned, his face frighteningly gloomy, his eyes fixed on the cut, but his movements were surprisingly gentle.

Yan Jie sat beside him with her lips pursed, not daring to speak at all, but her eyes would glance at the man's profile from time to time.

After applying the powder and wrapping the gauze around her arm twice, Li Yingqi looked at the woman in front of him with her head bowed, suppressing his anger and saying, "You've grown quite capable! That woman wanted to fall, so she fell, but you insisted on trying to pull her back, and ended up hurting yourself! You're just a pushover, aren't you? You can't even see through such a low-level trick."

"I'm sorry." Yan Jie licked the corners of her cracked lips. She didn't think much about it at the time and subconsciously rushed to save the person. She failed to save the person and they both fell under the water. Unexpectedly, Zhou Miaoting "accidentally" scratched her with a sharp wooden stick while struggling under the water.

Li Yingqi took a deep breath and said in a cold voice, "If you tell me, you are also telling yourself."

The room fell into an eerie silence for a moment. Yan Jie twisted her body uncomfortably and sat aside.

“Come here,” he said without looking up.

"Oh." Yan Jie responded obediently and moved back to her original position.

Her mind was in a mess. She just thought that Li Ying was broadcasting a variety show and was honestly learning the craft these two days. She didn't advertise or play the victim. She was like a real person, except for sticking to him every day.

He wouldn't really come to this show just for himself, right?

This idea suddenly popped up in Yan Jie's mind.

Impossible, impossible. It’s okay for a miser to lay a few golden eggs occasionally, but can an iron tree really bloom flowers?

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Li Yingqi raised his head, his expression difficult to describe.

Yan Jie finally realized that she had accidentally spoken out her true feelings and touched her nose in embarrassment.

He probably doesn't know that the stingy man and the iron tree are referring to him, right?

Yan Jie glanced at Li Yingqi cautiously.

I don’t know what message he saw on his phone. The man’s eyes were cold, his lips were pursed into a straight line, and he stared at the screen without saying a word.

After spending so many years together, Yan Jie could keenly sense that he was angry, and very angry.

Did something happen?

She looked up curiously and glanced at the screen, but Li Yingqi turned the phone over the next moment.

"Don't look." His voice was a little cold and hard, with a hint of anger in it.

"If you don't want to look at it, then don't. Why are you so fierce?" Yan Jie curled her lips, turned her head to the side, and moved her butt to the side, showing with her actions that she was not interested in the content on his phone.

Li Yingqi seemed to have just realized that his tone was a bit harsh and had caused Yan Jie to misunderstand him. He explained dryly, "That's not what I meant."

Anyway, the two of them have nothing to do now, and there is no need to care about the feelings of the financial sponsor. Yan Jie rolled her eyes and said bluntly: "How dare I misunderstand the unattainable President Li? Company secrets or something. If I dare to peek, I will be accused of being a corporate spy and it will be terrible."

It seemed like it was the first time that Li Yingqi heard Yan Jie speak to him like this. His expression was blank, and his tone unconsciously carried a hint of panic: "Yinyin, you misunderstood. I didn't show it to you because I was afraid that you would be upset if you saw it."

Yan Jie raised her eyebrows: "What could possibly make me upset?"

As she spoke, she leaned her head over. This time, Li Yingqi did not stop her and turned the phone towards her. Yan Jie could immediately see the big word "explosive" on the hot search.

#Yan Zhuyin pushes Zhou Miaoting into the water#

#Yan Zhuyin is jealous#

#Beware of those who have bad intentions and stab you in the back#

In addition to the few in the front row, there are also entries related to her that are slowly climbing up.

"Tsk." Yan Jie tsks softly. Li Yingqi thinks she's angry and immediately says, "I've asked Secretary Jiang to contact the PR department. The trending search will be removed soon."

Yan Jie blinked and looked up at him. "Anyway, I'm innocent. The trending searches are all taking my words out of context. There are so many cameras on the set, there's bound to be a scene where I'm being filmed saving someone. Why not let the bullets fly for a while? I can earn some more attention."

"No." Li Yingqi frowned, "I don't want those people to scold you."

"Huh?" Yan Jie didn't understand what he meant for a moment and said blankly, "What's the big deal? The more they scold me, the more heartbroken I'll be. Many celebrities rely on this to attract fans."

"I don't like it." Li Yingqi stared into her eyes seriously. "I don't like them scolding you. I don't like them taking out their emotions on you, and then pretending to shed a few tears and say some meaningless words afterwards."

Yan Jie's heart suddenly beat heavily. Looking at Li Yingqi's face so close to her, she realized that their posture was too intimate. She suddenly pushed him away, and her face suddenly felt hot as if on fire.

"You, you..." She mumbled for a long time, but couldn't think of what to say. Finally, a few words popped out from nowhere, "Then you should leave."

"Yeah." Li Yingqi responded softly. The air became a little tense. After a while, he cleared his throat and said, "They have all been removed."

Yan Jie looked down at the phone he handed her, and sure enough, all the entries related to herself had disappeared. She took a deep breath and scrolled through the related topics a few times, but there were no more ugly swear words or curses.

"Thank you." She said dryly. When she was about to return the phone, her hand accidentally touched something and Li Yingqi's personal information on Weibo suddenly popped up on the screen.

She took a subconscious glance and froze instantly.

How come this profile picture and nickname are exactly the same as those of her die-hard fans who have been following her since her debut?!
