Chapter 275 Investigation: Can We Bear the Consequences?
Gu Yulin walked to the man's side and glanced at the name tag pinned to his chest.
Investigation team, Wang Feng.
"Team Leader Wang, are you trying to show off your authority here? Where's the investigation order? Do you have one?"
Wang Feng said calmly, "No, it's a secret investigation. If you need it, I can open one, but the Gu family's reputation will be damaged, and I'm afraid the Gu Group's stock price..."
He had this "I'm doing this for your own good, don't be ungrateful" look on his face.
He repeatedly emphasized that the Gu family should not be affected.
However, those who are family-oriented are actually inherently rebellious.
Everyone stood in front of Wang Feng, each exuding an aura of authority and with a very serious expression.
"Then let's get the investigation warrant first." Gu Yulin 'kindly' reminded him, "Give my sister her compensation first. From beginning to end, my sister made a sacrifice, but she didn't receive a single word of condolence from you. Now that Old Wang is dead, you suddenly think of investigating?"
Why didn't you do this sooner?
Gu Beixiao has always had a low profile, but today, since it concerns the Gu family, he can't just stand here quietly without saying a word.
"If I remember correctly, the Gu family investigated the treason case from beginning to end. What are your intentions in investigating the Gu family now?"
This is why he is sometimes unwilling to pledge allegiance; the scrutiny from all sides can extinguish his enthusiasm.
Wang Feng was surprised by their lack of cooperation and adopted the authority of an investigation team: "We hope you will cooperate with our work. We are doing this to clear your names, so please don't make things difficult for me."
"Whether it's difficult or not, and who's making things difficult for whom, you should know in your heart."
Gu Yulin glanced at the old man, then looked back at Wang Feng, his eyes filled with determination and unquestionable resolve: "Let me make this clear today. If you want to investigate the Gu family and obtain an investigation warrant, I hope you can bear the consequences."
"What's the meaning?"
"The meaning is very simple: regardless of whether you find anything or not, whoever in the intelligence team wants to do it can do it, and all the resources provided by the Gu family will be completely terminated from the moment the investigation order is issued."
Wang Feng was instantly alarmed, and his previous tough attitude vanished.
"President Gu, you must separate public and private matters..."
His words were immediately interrupted, and Gu Hanlin immediately stated: "I support my son's decision."
Flipping the bowl after sitting down at the table—how shameless!
He would never give anyone the chance to deal with the Gu family.
If you want to investigate, that's fine, as long as you can bear the consequences.
He wouldn't force anyone, he would just... take back some privileges.
With Gu Hanlin's statement, Gu Hancheng also supported Gu Yulin's decision, and the fact that Old Master Gu remained silent was the best response.
Luo Zhiwei smiled faintly at Wang Feng, her voice calm: "I really want to know, why?"
Wang Feng adopted a businesslike attitude: "After all, Old Wang has been with the Gu family for more than 20 years, and this matter also involves the third master of the Gu family, Gu Hanchi, so it is natural to investigate it thoroughly."
“But both Gu Hanchi and Lao Wang are dead. Anything you find out now is just a dead man’s evidence.”
Luo Zhiwei pretended to suddenly realize something: "Then you did it on purpose. Old Wang and the Gu family's identities were public knowledge from the beginning. The Gu family didn't hide anything or try to distance themselves. In fact, my father and brother were doing their best to investigate. Why didn't you ask them to avoid suspicion back then?"
"Now that Old Wang is dead, you're only now thinking of investigating. Your purpose... isn't it too obvious?" Luo Zhiwei feigned innocence. "I can't speak for my family because they all serve the organization, but I don't. So it's better if I say these things. Team Leader Wang, what do you think?"
Wang Feng was so embarrassed that he couldn't even laugh: "Miss Luo...you...you must have misunderstood...we didn't have such thoughts...you...you really have misunderstood."
"Really?" Luo Zhiwei's expression instantly sharpened: "Then what are you feeling guilty about?"
Wang Feng felt completely oppressed. What was going on? When did this little girl develop such a powerful aura?
Something's not right... something's not right.
"I...I didn't."
Gu Hancheng was both gratified and moved as he watched his daughter relentlessly press him. His daughter was different from before.
Bright, confident, and protective of them.
"Since there isn't one, let's go back and think it over before deciding whether or not to investigate the Gu family."
Lu Jingxiao looked at Luo Zhiwei with a sense of pride.
The baby is amazing.
His baby is the best.
Lu Jingxiao sneered at Wang Feng: "I heard you're going to investigate me?"
Wang Feng was so intimidated by Lu Jingxiao's aura that he repeatedly backed away, stammering, "I...I..."
"Does a small investigation team have this authority?"
Lu Jingxiao snorted coldly. He hadn't made a move or shown any rage, but... Wang Feng just felt that even though it was quite hot outside, why did he feel cold?
"I...I'll go back and ask again."
Wang Feng practically fled in panic.
**
Luo Zhiwei let out a long sigh of relief, feeling as if she had been holding her breath for too long and was about to suffocate.
She leaned against Lu Jingxiao, still shaken, and said, "I was so scared! What were they going to do?"
Old Master Gu's expression remained grim; he must have realized something.
The group turned to look at the old man, and Gu Hancheng and Gu Hanlin walked up to him.
Gu Hancheng said in a low voice, his attitude not very good: "Dad, what exactly happened? This is too disheartening."
"Do you think I don't know?"
Old Master Gu also lost his temper and was very dissatisfied.
"So what exactly is going on? There must be a reason, right? Why is this happening?"
For the first time, Gu Hancheng felt that what he had done for his superiors was not worth it, that they had even started to suspect their own people.
Isn't this a slap in their face?
“I will find out the truth. If we start to doubt the Gu family because of this, then... we need to reconsider whether to continue.”
The Gu family doesn't need any reason to do things for the country, but if they are investigated because of this, with no way to verify the facts, that would be truly disheartening.
Luo Zhiwei doesn't understand the Gu family's structure and doesn't want to get too involved.
However, Old Master Gu turned his attention to her: "Weiwei, what do you think? Should we let them investigate, or what? If they do investigate, what should we do?"
Luo Zhiwei stood there, stunned. How could she possibly answer that?
"Speak freely and boldly, Grandpa will accept it."
Then I won't be polite.
Luo Zhiwei smiled faintly, her tone very calm: "Grandpa, it depends on how you look at it. Are the things our family does irreplaceable? Are there any substitutes? Can these things still be done without the Gu family? Also, are you happy with this job? The Gu family has such a large business, and everyone's value has been realized. As for your work, have you truly demonstrated your value? Have you gained the absolute trust of those above?"
Her words stunned everyone, leaving the few involved speechless.
On the contrary, Gu Hanlin was more agitated: "Dad, go and find out the truth. If this is what the higher-ups want, then we won't do it. I can't let my son take such a risk. It's safe now, but what about later!"
"If it's those scoundrels below who're up to this, I'll make sure they're all dead!"
So annoying!
Gu Yulin was inexplicably moved, feeling warm inside, but he didn't show it on his face: "Grandpa, I agree with what my dad said. Let's figure out the situation before we talk about anything else."
Luo Zhiwei stood quietly beside Lu Jingxiao. They truly loved what they did and had conviction in it.
very nice.
