Chapter 73 Who hasn't given their heart to a dog?
Gu Gong never expected that this woman would hold a broken glass bottle to his neck.
He was terrified of getting hurt, so he quickly backed away.
Ji Ying pressed him relentlessly, eventually forcing him out of the ward.
Gu Gong's waist slammed against the railing, his face contorted in pain.
"Let him go!"
Gu Yanchen's voice came from afar.
Ji Ying looked over subconsciously and found that Wen Lingxue was also with him.
Taking advantage of her distraction, Gu Gong twisted her wrist and pressed the broken glass bottle opening hard against her eyeball.
"You bitch, let's see who takes whose life!"
Gu Yanchen rushed forward and grabbed Gu Gong's wrist, preventing him from succeeding.
The glass bottle shattered and fell to the ground, shards flying everywhere.
"Yan Chen, you saw it all. It wasn't enough that she angered your aunt to death; now she even dares to hit me! She..."
“Father, you have no grudge against Old Master Lin, so don’t harm the innocent.”
Gu Yanchen interrupted him.
The nurse closed the ward door, speechless.
Ji Ying anxiously ran to the small window to peek out, then turned to look at Gu Gong again, her gaze icy cold.
"Gu Gong, listen up!"
First, the house in Tianhe Yunjing is registered under Gu Yanchen's name, meaning I own half of it. You have 24 hours to move out. If you are more than a minute late, I will report you for illegal occupation!
Secondly, Wen Li publicly defamed and insulted me in the community by displaying banners and using a loudspeaker. Evidence has been preserved, and I will hire a lawyer to file a private criminal prosecution!
"Hire a lawyer?" Gu Gong laughed. "Which lawyer in Kunming would dare to help you deal with the Gu family?"
"If it's not in Kun City, then I'll go to Beijing to look for it. Anyway, if you force me, I'll definitely show you the results."
Ji Ying was also saying this to Gu Yanchen.
“Yan Chen, look at this, this is her true face. She wants to make your father sleep on the streets.”
Gu Gong expected his son to refute Ji Ying with harsh words.
However, Gu Yanchen's gaze fell on several policemen walking over from not far away.
"Excuse me, who is Gu Gong?" one of the policemen asked.
"Yes, it is. What do you want?" Gu Gong straightened his back.
"We received a report that you are causing trouble in the hospital ward, suspected of disrupting medical order and endangering the personal safety of patients. Please come with us."
After a moment of surprise, Gu Gong looked at Ji Ying and asked sternly, "Did you do it?"
Ji Ying replied, "Master Gong violated public order regulations. He shouldn't be exempted from detention just because he's a member of the Gu family."
"Yan Chen, she's deliberately trying to humiliate the Gu family!"
Gu Gong looked at his son as if pleading for help.
Gu Yanchen never expected Ji Ying to go to such lengths.
He walked up to her and said in a low voice, "I will cover all of Grandpa Lin's medical expenses, and I will have them help Tianhe Yunjing tonight. As for the harm Wen Li caused you, I will have her apologize to you after she is discharged from the hospital. You should stop now."
Before Ji Ying could react, Gu Gongxian objected.
"Yan Chen, after leaving Tianhe Yun Jing, where am I supposed to stay? Where is Ling Xue supposed to stay?"
Gu Yanchen said emotionlessly, "You own quite a few houses, so you can choose whichever you like to live in. As for her, I have other plans for her."
Gu Gong was speechless. He had been kicked out of the old house, and he was only able to save face for Tianhe Yun Jing.
Ji Ying chuckled and said to Gu Yanchen in a light tone, "Even your father doesn't respect you, so who do you think you are?"
A layer of frost suddenly covered Gu Yanchen's face.
Wen Lingxue, who had been silent for a long time, lowered her eyes and said, "Brother, sister-in-law is indeed unreasonable, but uncle was also at fault. The Gu family is already in the eye of the storm. Let's put the Gu family's reputation first."
Ji Ying was surprised that Wen Lingxue was actually happy to see Gu Gong detained.
What surprised her even more was that when Wen Lingxue suggested that Gu Yanchen let go and ignore it, Gu Gong didn't scold her.
Gu Yanchen's expression turned grim after Gu Gong was taken away.
"Do you really want to be enemies with every single member of the Gu family?"
Ji Ying looked away. "Divorce or becoming enemies, you can choose one, or you can choose both."
"You did a great job."
Gu Yanchen turned and left.
Wen Lingxue suddenly cried out, "Ouch! Brother, my hand!"
Gu Yanchen slowed down and waited for her to catch up. Wen Lingxue placed her bandaged wrist in his hand, gave him a deep look, and the two left together.
Ji Ying was no longer moved; after all, whose sincerity hadn't been wasted on dogs?
Three days later, Mr. Lin was discharged from the hospital.
Upon returning to Tianhe Yunjing, the property management company presented many gifts as an apology.
Ji Ying generously stated that this would not be repeated.
The online public opinion was dealt with by the public relations department of Chenxi Group on the day of the incident, but even so, the reputation of Gujia was affected to some extent.
Gu Yanchen has been so busy dealing with the shareholders' questions these days that he hasn't even bothered to check on Gu Gong, who was detained for five days.
Ji Ying didn't have time to concern herself with the Gu family's affairs; she had been busy in the lab these past few days.
The Chip Energy Summit is in two days, and Xiao Xia finally managed to get an invitation card for the summit.
But when he handed the card to Ji Ying, he didn't smile.
"Originally, given our company's current situation, we were not qualified to participate. It was only thanks to a few friends who put in a good word that the organizers were willing to give us this opportunity."
Ji Ying touched the gold lettering on it. "What happened? Why are you so unhappy?"
"President Pang of Mode Investment Bank is not answering the phone or accepting appointments. This afternoon, his subordinates called again to urge repayment. I guess Gu Yanchen put pressure on him. At this rate, even if we can attend the summit, we won't survive this month."
"Can't you ask your friend what his hobbies are and where he likes to go?" Ji Ying asked.
Xiao Xia shook her head. "This Pang Xing was just transferred from the overseas branch. Very few people know him."
Then she whispered, "I heard he made a mistake in the country and was deported, but it might just be a rumor because the company didn't fire him."
Ji Ying wasn't interested in other people's gossip. She rubbed her neck and quickly packed her things.
"Go get me a Mode Bank uniform."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xia's eyes lit up.
But how could she let Ji Ying go on this risk alone?
After donning bank uniforms, the two passed the security guards without incident, but upon reaching the 13th floor, they were stopped at the secretary's desk.
"These are documents sent by the branch; I need to hand them over to the branch manager in person."
Ji Ying shook the file bag in her hand.
Just as the secretary was about to ask for details, she spotted Pang Wei heading towards the elevator and called out, "Manager, the branch has sent some documents that require your signature."
Ji Ying's breath hitched.
A public confrontation in the lobby is vastly different from a private discussion. If Pang Wei cares about his reputation, he will definitely call security; if he is impartial, he will handle the matter strictly according to the law.
Pang Wei stopped and looked over.
His face was sickly pale, perhaps because he was too thin, which made his suit look very empty.
Xiao Xia was a little nervous and tugged at Ji Ying's hand.
The two of them gritted their teeth and walked over.
Ji Ying mustered her courage and said, "I'm sorry, President Pang, we are the people in charge of Qing Sui Power. We have no choice but to meet you in this way because we are on your bank's blacklist."
Pang Wei's gaze lingered on Ji Ying's face, scrutinizing her thoughtfully.
Xiao Xia quickly interjected, "It's my fault for not handling the relationship with your bank well. She just wanted a chance to make amends. The idea of coming to see you was my own, and it has nothing to do with her."
Pang Wei suddenly chuckled softly. The smile was clearly on his face, yet it gave people a chilling feeling, like seeing a wooden doll in the night.
"I have a dinner appointment, but we can talk in the car."
Xiao Xia was overjoyed upon hearing this.
"Okay, thank you, President Pang."
Pang Wei shook his finger at her, "I mean... just me and this lady talking."
