Guo An received Lin Wei's reply and immediately started a voice call.
He had slept in the dormitory for half a day, and by the time he arrived at the company, he was hiding in a place without surveillance cameras to report the situation to Lin Wei.
He sent Lin Wei a video showing that every floor of the Fu Group building was brightly lit, indicating that there were people in every department. According to the information Guo An had gathered, He Wei had currently identified the internal employees and had not found any external personnel entering the warehouse.
However, it would take at least a week for internal staff to investigate, and by then, the tide would have already turned.
Lin Wei breathed a sigh of relief; it was good that they hadn't found anything.
She arranged to meet Guo An the next morning.
After hanging up the call, the man glanced around to make sure no one was there, then returned to his office.
Xiao Cui sneaked over.
Seeing him, Guo An's mind went blank. During the team leader selection, Xiao Cui had used his weakness to get him to sign his name. Now that he was here, it probably wasn't for anything good.
Sure enough, Xiao Cui gave Guo An a look, signaling Guo An to go out with him.
There were many people in the office, and Xiao Cui was afraid that others would hear her.
Guo An obediently followed.
"Manager Guo, is it possible that your girlfriend did something to it?" Xiao Cui asked bluntly when they reached a spot without surveillance cameras.
Guo An froze.
"Judging from your expression, I was right."
"How could that be? What would my girlfriend be doing in the warehouse? Wasn't being threatened by you once enough? How many of me would dare bring her into the company again?" Guo An denied it outright.
Xiao Cui laughed: "Really? What if I tell President He that you brought outsiders to the company?"
"Xiao Cui, we've been colleagues, what exactly do you want?" Guo An had already signed the papers, allowing Xiao Cui to get the promotion he wanted. Wasn't he satisfied? Xiao Cui shamelessly replied, "I like straightforward people like you. You just ask me what I want. I want money, 20,000."
"What?" Guo An jumped up immediately.
"Where would I get the money to give you? I came to Tiancheng to work hard just like you. You know very well how much I earn. It's barely enough to get by each month. How could I possibly have any savings?" Guo An really didn't have any savings, especially after he started dating a girlfriend, he even had credit card debt.
"How did you manage to afford a girlfriend? I've heard all about it; your girlfriend is incredibly beautiful. If she's so pretty and she's interested in you, do you think you could have gotten her without spending a fortune? You must have bought her a lot of things, right?" Xiao Cui asked matter-of-factly.
Guo An was even more shocked: "You actually investigated her? Would you believe me if I said I've never given her anything valuable?"
"I don't believe it," Xiao Cui said without hesitation.
“Then what’s the point of me saying anything? If it’s not there, it’s not there,” Guo An retorted.
"What about the credit card? I have a card reader, I can withdraw the money and pay it off in installments." Xiao Cui wouldn't care about any colleague relationships in order to get the money.
He only knew that if he couldn't pay his credit card bills, it would affect his credit score, but it was only 20,000 yuan, which Guo An could definitely afford.
"I'm not going to keep you in suspense any longer. I urgently need the money. If you don't give it to me, I'll immediately tell Boss He that you violated regulations by bringing outsiders in, and that you even did it in the office. If you lose your job, it won't just be a matter of 20,000 yuan." Xiao Cui was too lazy to bargain with Guo An.
Guo An knew how serious it would be if he were reported; he would definitely lose his job.
"Xiao Cui, are you really going to take this to the extreme? I can lend you money if you need it, but is it honorable to threaten someone into giving you money?" Guo An never expected that a colleague in his department would be this kind of person.
"Did you gamble? The company strictly forbids it. Gambling, prostitution, and drugs are all prohibited. Otherwise, you'll be fired." Guo An tried to use company regulations to put pressure on Xiao Cui.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Cui said nonchalantly, "At worst, I'll get fired. I can find a security guard job that pays 5,000 yuan anywhere. But you're different. Your girlfriend is interested in you. Isn't it because you're an employee of Fu's Group?"
Guo An seemed to have been seen through; he couldn't deny it even if he wanted to.
"Manager Guo, if you help me through this difficult time, I promise I'll be your friend forever." Xiao Cui said firmly.
But to Guo An, his words were completely unbelievable. If he could really do it, and had already recommended him for a promotion, would he still want money?
Besides, if he really did owe money from gambling, then the gambling story is completely unbelievable.
Guo An sneered: "You said that when you threatened me to sign last time, do you think I would believe you?"
Xiao Cui said impatiently, "You have no choice. If I don't see 20,000 yuan by tomorrow, I will report you immediately."
After saying that, Cui strode away, leaving Guo An standing in the corner, looking lost and disoriented.
Xiao Cui is right. He really has no choice. Even if Xiao Cui threatens him again in the future, he must stabilize the present situation first.
Guo An could only try to find a way to make money.

Coffee shop.
As the number of guests increased in the evening, Ye Jianming found it inconvenient to discuss issues with Rong Yan, so he found a quiet place.
Fu Jingsheng came from Yushui Bay.
The three people checked the information they had found.
Ye Jianming checked all the accounts and confirmed that they were all normal accounts. Several of them had bought clothes from Fu's multiple times and had previously given positive reviews. It was impossible for them to suddenly give negative reviews unless there was a real problem.
Rong Yan asked around and found out that the news was gaining popularity and would definitely be trending on the top of the list within an hour.
Fu Jingsheng brought news that, apart from layoffs, his father and grandfather's generation had no enemies.
He thought of what his grandmother had said. Could it be that he had really offended someone? After all, he had been confessed to several times in college, and he had rejected them all thoroughly, regardless of the occasion. Could it be that he had hurt the heart of some girl, and that person was taking revenge on him like Rong Bing had?
Rong Yan helped recall.
Back then, when Fu Jingsheng rejected her, he didn't give her any face at all. Fortunately, she wasn't narrow-minded, otherwise she might have retaliated against Fu Jingsheng.
According to Rong Yan's understanding, competition in the business world does not frequently involve the use of public opinion tactics.
Ye Jianming lowered his eyes: "To keep retaliating just because you were rejected? That's impossible. It's not like you started something and then abandoned it. Who would be so idle?"
Fu Jingsheng pinched the side of his nose. He didn't know either, but he didn't know what other excessive things he had done.
After taking over Fu's, he was quite honest and generous to his employees. The company's benefits were better than others, and there was no phenomenon of withholding wages or abusing employees.
As for starting a relationship and then abandoning it, that's even more impossible. He nipped other people's confessions in the bud, so there was no chance for anything to happen later.
Rong Yan paid close attention to Fu Jingsheng during college. She had never heard of him having any romantic relationships with anyone. On the contrary, in the eyes of her classmates, Fu Jingsheng was aloof and unapproachable. Many people had a crush on him, but it seemed that only she had openly confessed her feelings.
"Besides me, has anyone else publicly confessed their feelings to you?" Rong Yan asked.
“No, only you are brave.” Fu Jingsheng shook his head.
“You probably didn’t pass notes to them privately and they rejected you, and then you laughed at them in front of your roommates, so they found out and are holding a grudge.” Rong Yan ruled out each possibility one by one.
Fu Jingsheng never tells his roommates about the love letters he receives, and he would never use other people's confessions as gossip.
Everything Rong Yan could think of was rejected by the man.
The group fell silent.
Suddenly, Fu Jingsheng seemed to realize something, and he stood up: "Could it be?"
