Chapter 095 The Ninety-fifth Melon
The muscles on Huang Yin's face twitched and his expression became extremely terrifying.
Sister Li's lips trembled and she took a few steps back, "Master, is what you said true?!"
Huang Yin was still stubborn at this point, "A Ling, I've been married to you for so many years, and you don't believe me. Do you believe that charlatan? She said I want to kill my whole family, so does that mean I want to kill my whole family? Do you have a brain?"
Sister Li looked at Huang Yin, was silent for a moment, and called Ah Hong to come out to the kitchen.
That Ah Hong originally wanted to play dead and didn't want to show up.
But Sister Li rushed in and dragged her out forcefully, so Ah Hong reluctantly appeared in front of everyone.
Ah Hong held her hands and looked up at Sister Li aggrievedly: "Sister Li, what are you doing?"
"You, are you and my husband really together?"
Sister Li looked at Ah Hong with red eyes.
Ah Hong felt guilty and didn't dare to look at Sister Li. She lowered her head and said, "Sister Li, don't wrongly accuse a good person. The boss and I have nothing to do with each other."
"You two really have no relationship?!"
Sister Li stared at Ah Hong and Huang Yin.
Huang □□xu was furious, veins on his forehead bulged, and he pointed at Sister Li and said, "I think you are crazy. Ah Hong and I are innocent, but you have to say that we have a relationship, only then will you be satisfied, right?"
Sister Li was silent for a moment.
She closed her eyes, then slowly opened them and exhaled, "Last Saturday, I asked you and Ah Hong to deliver food to Ah Yun. Halfway through, I remembered that I forgot to deliver clothes to Ah Yun, so I went there too. As a result, I saw the two of you hugging each other in the corridor."
Huang Yin was stunned, a look of panic appeared on his face.
"A Ling, please listen to my explanation. I,..."
"You don't need to explain. I finally understand why you used to complain when you were working in the kitchen, but since Ah Hong came, you no longer complain."
Sister Li looked at Huang Yin and Ah Hong with disappointment and disgust, "You two bastards, not only did you cheat on us, but you even wanted to harm us sisters. I'm going to call the police, I won't let you off easy!"
Sister Li walked to the counter without saying a word and wanted to call the police.
Huang Yin and Ah Hong were both anxious and rushed over to stop Sister Li.
Xu Yiyang quickly signaled to the others, and they went up to stop the two men.
"Get out of the way, it's none of your business!"
Huang Yin was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and cursed at Xu Yiyang and others angrily.
Xu Yiyang said confidently: "It's none of our business, but we will help those who are in trouble when we see them!"
After she saw Sister Li call the police, she signaled to everyone to let Huang Yin and the other person go over.
Huang Yin looked at the hung up phone, sweating profusely, and suddenly rushed out. After hesitating for a moment, Ah Hong also hurriedly followed him out.
"A Ling! They both ran away!"
When Li's mother saw this scene, she became extremely anxious and slapped her thigh and said.
Sister Li waved her hands and said, "Let them run. If they have the guts, they can get out of Hong Kong. Otherwise, they will be charged with another crime of fleeing for fear of crime."
"Sister Li, don't be sad. A blessing in disguise."
Seeing Sister Li looking depressed and lost, Xu Yiyang couldn't help but feel soft-hearted and came over to comfort Sister Li.
Sister Li took a breath and nodded, "I understand. This kind of man is really terrifying. I can't understand how our family could have let him down to the point that he wanted to kill us sisters."
"Don't think about it. Just because a dog bit me on the road, should I reflect on myself and think I shouldn't have gone out?"
Gu Xicao comforted Sister Li, "After this, you two sisters will support each other in the future. There is nothing to be afraid of."
"Gu Xicao, why are you here?!"
Lin Gengjin brought his people to "A Dessert Shop" and saw Gu Xicao talking to the proprietress.
It is said that enemies become jealous of each other when they meet. When Lin Gengjin saw Gu Xicao, his eyes were filled with anger.
Gu Xicao glanced at him, and especially when she saw the file box in his hand, she knew that Zhang Liang had fired them.
It seems that Zhang Liang is quite reliable.
Seeing that Gu Xicao ignored him, Lin Gengjin became more and more angry. He turned his head to look at the boss lady and said to her, "Sister Li, do you remember me? I'm from the Xirang Company who contacted you before?"
"It's you?!"
When Sister Li heard this, she immediately thought that Huang Yin wanted to kill Lin Gengjin because this man came to their door and persuaded them to accept the investment. She was not polite to Lin Gengjin and said, "What are you doing here? We don't welcome you here!"
Lin Gengjin was stunned for a moment. He looked at Gu Xicao and laughed: "It doesn't matter. It's better if you don't welcome us. We are here to tell you that we were fired by the company because Xirang Company is simply a rubbish company. This woman is even more incompetent and jealous. She fired us without any reason!"
“That’s right!”
Another salesperson said indignantly: "We have worked so hard for the company, but this guy is so unreasonable that he fires us just like that!"
"Sister Li, even if your store is considering accepting investment, you must not cooperate with Xirang Company!" Lin Gengjin deliberately said these words in front of Gu Xicao.
He is the purely disgusting Gu Xicao.
Although Xu Yiyang didn't understand what was going on at first, he understood everything as he listened.
She came over, stood up for Gu Xicao, pointed at Lin Gengjin and the other man and said:
"That's enough. Looking at you, I know you deserve to be fired. But you actually come here to cause trouble. It's really not right!"
"What does this have to do with you, gossip? I was the one pushing this project forward before. It was me who was negotiating with her husband!"
Lin Gengjin was arrogant and complacent, his chin raised arrogantly, and he looked at people with his eyelids lowered. "I am leaving the company now, and the company can't even think of getting any benefits from me. What's the problem?!"
"That's right, go ahead and sue us if you have the guts!"
Another person also said gloatingly.
"So, it was you who told Huang Yin that he could become rich by accepting investment?"
Sister Li took a deep breath, suppressed the anger rising in her heart, and asked Lin Gengjin.
Xu Yiyang seemed to realize something, a sarcastic smile flashed across his lips, and he glanced at Lin Gengjin and the other man.
Lin Gengjin had no idea what had just happened, and said proudly, "That's not the case, Sister Li. I'm not saying that you are not as far-sighted as your husband in this regard. I could help you before. As long as you accepted the investment, you could become millionaires in a year, expand to more than a dozen stores in two years, and make it to Taiwan in three years. It's not impossible to even go public. But now, without my help in the company, you..."
Before Lin Gengjin could finish his words, Sister Li picked up the coffee next to her and poured it at him.
Lin Gengjin was splashed all over.
He was stunned for a moment before realizing what had just happened. His blood pressure suddenly rose and he rushed towards Sister Li, "You gossip, how dare you splash me!"
Sister Li took out a fruit knife from behind the counter and slammed it on the table.
As soon as the knife appeared, Lin Gengjin immediately calmed down and stopped in his tracks.
"I'm talking to you, you bastard. You said those bullshit to Huang Yin behind my back, and that guy believed you. He wanted to get rich, so he wanted to kill my sister and me. I just called the police and asked them to arrest him. Do you want me to call the police now and sue you for being an accomplice to a crime?"
Sister Li held a knife in her hand, her tone was unfriendly, and her eyes were full of ferocity.
Cold sweat fell on Lin Gengjin's forehead.
He showed a panicked look on his face: "Is it really that exaggerated? We may not be the ones to blame?!"
"However," he said with a turn of his eyes, "Since you hate us so much, please don't cooperate with our company. Don't let us get away with it!"
After Lin Gengjin finished speaking, he glanced at Gu Xicao triumphantly.
When Xu Yiyang heard these words, even though he didn't quite understand the whole story, he knew that Lin Gengjin was trying to trip up Gu Xicao. He couldn't help but get angry for a moment, "What's wrong with you? You do things that hurt others but don't benefit yourself!"
"I just hurt others and not benefit myself, so what!"
Lin Gengjin sneered: "If you have the ability, can you convince her to cooperate with the company?"
"you……"
Xu Yiyang was so angry when he saw Lin Gengjin's rogue appearance.
Sister Li had just suffered a loss because of Huang Yin's greed for money and in order to get the signboard of the dessert shop. How could she possibly agree to this?
This person is really a rogue!
"Okay, no need to argue with him."
Gu Xicao stopped Xu Yiyang and looked at Lin Gengjin calmly, "You have said what you want to say, and you can leave now. As for the project at the company, it has nothing to do with you. Whether they agree or not, the company will not resort to despicable means like you. Sister Li."
Gu Xicao said to Sister Li, "If you don't want to accept the investment, you can just refuse. I can represent our company and will never use this matter to harass you in the future."
Lin Gengjin had a smirk on his face.
He put one hand on his waist and said, "Miss Gu, the company has only become your project recently. There is not much profit this year. When you report at the end of the year, you have to think about how to explain it to the shareholders and your grandfather."
Sister Li’s eyes darkened.
She glanced at Lin Gengjin with disgust, turned her head, and said seriously: "Ms. Gu, are you in charge of Xirang Company now?"
"Yes, I just took over in the past few days. I didn't know about what happened before. I am willing to apologize to you on behalf of the company for what Lin Gengjin did."
Gu Xicao said frankly.
Sister Li was silent for a moment and said, "If it's you, then our shop is willing to sit down and discuss investment. I didn't want to accept investment before, but it was because this person talked nonsense and I didn't dare to believe him. But I trust your words."
"Yes, Miss Gu, we believe that you will give us a fair way of cooperation."
Mother Li also said hurriedly.
Lin Gengjin was stunned, his eyes were filled with astonishment. He widened his eyes and said to Sister Li rudely, "No, woman, are you a pig? It was Xirang Company that harmed you and made your husband have bad intentions! Why are you still cooperating with them?"
Sister Li rolled her eyes. "You idiot, I'm not stupid. You are the one who did the bad thing, not your company. Huang Yin has evil intentions of taking the family property. He has bad intentions. Even if there is no investment, there will be other things sooner or later! Get out of here, get out, if you don't get out, the knife in my hand is not vegetarian!"
Sister Li waved the knife in her hand.
The sharp knife flashed past Lin Gengjin and the other man.
The two men were as timid as mice. When they saw the knife being used, their legs went weak. They looked fierce but were actually weak. "Just you wait, I won't let this go!"
"Get out of here!"
Sister Li pretended to wave the knife in her hand.
The two men ran away quickly and fell down.
Everyone in the store burst into laughter.
Sister Li then put away the knife, and Gu Xicao came up to her, "Sister Li, if you need a lawyer, we can recommend a very good lawyer to you. As for the cooperation, I think you should think about it carefully. You don't have to put yourself in a difficult position just to repay me."
Sister Li took the business card handed over by Gu Xicao.
She felt a little touched and said to Gu Xicao, "Don't worry, I'm not a fool. I've been doing business for more than ten years. I started when I was fifteen, and I've seen everything. I don't trust your company, I trust you. I want to make our store bigger, so I won't miss this opportunity."
“That’s the best of both worlds.”
Xu Yiyang said: "Everyone can get what they want."
Gu Xicao smiled when he heard this.
Before leaving for the mainland, Gu Zhizhang specially invited Gu Xicao and Lin Yuan to his home for dinner.
When Wang Xueli saw that Gu Xicao brought her brother with her, she curled her lips but said nothing.
It is obvious that Yan Qin has been teaching well recently.
"This is your brother. He's really strong."
Zhang Yan was still praising Lin Yuan with a smile, and as if remembering something, he said to the servant: "I remember someone gave me a golden bull before. Bring it here as a gift for my little brother."
"The Taurus is a little bit more expensive,"
Gu Zhizhang frowned slightly, "Children don't like this either."
"I know, but it's just a temporary thing." Zhang Yan said with a smile, "Besides, Xicao's brother is just like my grandson. Giving my grandson too much is not too much."
The servant brought down the golden bull.
It was a golden bull the size of a palm, and was quite heavy.
Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment, looked at Gu Xicao, then thanked Zhang Yan and took it.
The corners of Zhang Yan's lips and Yan Qin's lips curled up slightly.
Wang Xueli couldn't help but sneer in her heart. She was indeed a poor person. She was really blinded by money.
"Grandma Zhang." Lin Yuan held the golden bull with great effort, and suddenly looked up and asked, "Can I sell this thing?"
"Um"
Zhang Yan's eyes flashed with disdain, and she smiled and said, "Of course you can. You can use the things grandma gave you however you want."
"Then I want to exchange it for cash and donate it to a nearby orphanage."
Lin Yuan hugged Jinniu and smiled brightly, "There is an orphanage near where we live now. There are many children in it. It's December now and it's very cold. Those children don't even have thick clothes to wear. I pass by every morning and see the situation inside. I feel so sad."
Gu Zhizhang was stunned. He waved to Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan walked over holding Jinniu and called out to him, "Hello, Grandpa Gu."
"Xiao Yuan, what made you want to sell the golden bull?"
Gu Zhizhang was a little surprised.
Wang Xueli couldn't help but sneered, "That's right. You didn't think of it when you didn't have the golden bull. My grandma gave you the golden bull, and now you remember to be a good person. Why, doesn't your sister have money? It doesn't look like it?"
Lin Yuan was anxious. "No, my sister is rich, but my sister's money belongs to me. I can't use my sister's money to do the good things I want to do. I saved 300 yuan before and donated it all to the orphanage. Now this Golden Bull Grandma said it was for me, so, so I..."
Seeing that he was so anxious that his face turned red, Gu Zhizhang couldn't help but laugh, "Good boy, don't be anxious, Grandpa Gu knows what you mean. You think it's your own things, so you can distribute them easily. You can't make decisions on other people's money, even if it's your sister's money, right?"
Lin Yuan nodded in surprise, "Grandpa Gu, that's exactly what I meant. My sister and I are not related at all. After my mother passed away, my sister has been taking care of me. I am very grateful to her, so I know better."
"Xiao Yuan..."
Gu Xicao couldn't help but be stunned.
She walked over and hugged Lin Yuan, "Sister really treats you as her own brother. If you want to donate money, tell me earlier. I don't have much, but sister is willing to give tens of thousands of dollars."
"Doing charity is a good thing. I will donate 100,000 yuan."
Gu Zhizhang sighed, "With this money, the children in the orphanage can live without worries about food and clothing for at least one or two years."
Zhang Yan and the others had a forced smile. Although they were reluctant, since Gu Zhizhang and the other two had expressed their opinions, they had no choice but to express their opinions.
They had no choice but to pay tens of thousands of yuan each.
Although this amount of money was just enough for a bag for Zhang Yan and her friends, they were still reluctant to spend it.
"Master, Madam, the food is ready."
Aunt Zhang came over and bowed.
Yan Qin smiled and said, "Uncle, Mom, it's time for us to eat. I think everyone is hungry. It's not too late to talk about it at the dinner table."
"Um."
Gu Zhizhan nodded and stretched out his hand.
It was obvious that he wanted Gu Xicao to support him, but Gu Xicao seemed not to notice. Lin Yuan looked at Gu Xicao, then at Gu Zhizhang, and quickly put down the golden bull and went over to support Gu Zhizhang's hand, "Grandpa Gu, let me support you."
Gu Zhizhan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
Gu Zhizhang has a light taste, so he cooked Cantonese cuisine for lunch, including steamed grouper, fried conch, and stewed shark fin...
While eating, Yan Qin mentioned that Wang Xueli would go abroad for an inspection in a few days. She said gently, "Xueli is impatient. She has only been in charge of the company for a few days, but she wants to go abroad for inspection. This time she will also inspect Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines. I told her that she can't eat hot tofu if she is impatient, but she said she wanted to compete with Xicao."
"Can you handle going to so many countries at once?"
Zhang Yan was eating bird's nest porridge with a slightly furrowed brow. Her snow-white hair was meticulously combed, making her look exceptionally elegant.
Wang Xueli said, "You have to handle it even if you are too busy. Sister is working so hard. She has made all the important decisions since she took office, but there is still no movement on my side. That is not appropriate."
Wang Xueli's words were full of thorns.
Upon hearing this, Yan Qin scolded Wang Xueli, "Xueli, how can you talk like that? Didn't I tell you not to talk about this?"
Gu Xicao said that the mother and daughter duo performed their duet really well.
Even the deaf people cheered when they heard it.
"What's going on?" Zhang Yan frowned, wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, and asked with concern: "What do you mean by a new official starting his job with three fires? What's Xicao doing?"
Gu Zhizhang said: "It's nothing. Xicao told me about this a long time ago, and I already knew about it."
Wang Xueli and her daughter were both stunned.
Yan Qin's smile was somewhat forced, "Uncle Gu, do you know what it is?"
"Isn't it just that a few employees from Xirang were fired?"
Gu Zhizhang said calmly, "In troubled times, severe punishments are used. I support this approach. Xirang has been open for five years, and its performance is getting worse year by year. The company's investment costs are getting higher year by year. It should have been properly rectified long ago. Xicao's performance this time is very much to my liking."
"Really? Uncle Gu, we didn't know about this situation."
Yan Qin's eyes flickered. She coughed and gave Wang Xueli a look.
Wang Xueli understood and said hurriedly: "Grandpa, many of the people who were fired are our relatives. There is a saying that goes "help your relatives but not your relatives". Our relatives helped our family a lot in the past. Now they are fired directly. How will they live without a job?"
"Is there such a thing?"
Zhang Yan frowned. "If that's the case, then it's not appropriate. Xiao Gu, do you know that they are our relatives?"
Although Lin Yuan is young, he is not stupid.
He could tell that these people were clearly looking for trouble with his sister, and he suddenly found himself unable to eat. He looked at Gu Xicao worriedly.
Gu Xicao picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks and said with a smile, "I know."
"Then what about you!" Wang Xueli was about to question.
Gu Xicao interrupted her and asked, "Since they are your relatives, if we fire them, you can just find other positions for them. There are so many companies in the group, don't you think there are any of these positions? I dared to take drastic measures because I believed that you could take good care of these relatives. You didn't fail to find jobs for your relatives, did you?"
Gu Xicao asked with an innocent look on her face.
Yan Qin, Wang Xueli and Zhang Yan were all speechless after being asked this question.
A hint of smile flashed across Gu Zhizhang's wrinkled eyes.
He said, "What Xicao said makes sense. Since those people are not doing a good job in Xirang, you can just find some work for them to do. Originally, according to my opinion, the capable ones should be promoted, and these talents should not be favored."
"Old Gu, he is our relative after all."
Zhang Yan's heart tightened and she spoke softly to show her weakness.
Gu Zhizhang said: "I know, so I haven't said anything over the years, but when I was in office, it was easy to say, but when I retired, it's hard to say."
"Uncle Gu, you are still strong and healthy. You can still work for another ten years."
Yan Qin listened to Gu Zhizhang's words and felt as if there was something else behind his words. She couldn't help but feel nervous and quickly began to flatter Gu Zhizhang with a smile.
Gu Zhizhang shook his head. "I'm old, old. I've already made plans. After I go to the mainland to pay my respects to my wife, son, and daughter-in-law, I'll work for a few more years and then retire. As for who will be in charge of the group in the future, it depends on who has the ability."
Hearing this, Wang Xueli couldn't help but bite her lower lip, looking at Gu Xicao with unwillingness and resentment.
Gu Xicao felt at ease and even thought the other party was a little ridiculous.
If Zhang Yan and her son had not shamelessly deceived Gu Zhizhan, who knows what kind of life they would be living now.
It's ridiculous that they have the nerve to hate themselves.
"Ms. Gu, your phone number!"
A servant suddenly ran over here and said in panic.
Yan Qin's face darkened, and she put down her chopsticks gently but forcefully, "What are you doing? Didn't you see that everyone is eating? Why is the phone call so important?"
The servant was terrified and stammered, "Madam, yes, someone from the company wanted to jump off the building, and he specifically asked to see Miss Gu!"
