In just half a month, before Hou Taotao could even react, rumors spread like wildfire about Liu Yongxing, the president of the Huanhai Children's Foundation, for his despicable acts of tricking sick children's mothers into sleeping with him in exchange for emergency funds and for his disregard for human life.
It was exposed that Liu Yong colluded with the vice president to falsify accounts.
The two colluded to squander the donations that should have been used to help sick children; such behavior is truly outrageous.
This incident caused a national uproar and sparked public outrage. People clamored for severe punishment for these two scoundrels.
Some sighed, some were angry, and some began to reflect.
Some paparazzi even revealed that the head of the Huanhai Children's Foundation had lax internal management and unclear accounts. Because Liu Yong and the vice president were relatives of the head of the foundation, the head of the foundation did not interfere in the affairs of the foundation and turned a blind eye to everything.
Others say that RL Group was originally a gang organization, so what if it has transformed? Look, look, it's still a leopard that can't change its spots.
This is a case of one's own people stealing from their own premises.
When people wake up in the morning and check their phones, all they see are push notifications about RL Group's "self-inflicted theft."
The evening news also devoted five minutes to reporting on this.
However, the police are still investigating and collecting evidence, and have not revealed much.
The newspaper always has the largest pages.
By the time Hou Taotao tried to take control, public opinion had become too overwhelming for him to manage.
The entire RL Group's public relations and legal departments are working non-stop, practically smoking.
Hua Zi returned to Kyoto and was sent out again by Zhao Xiaoyue. This time, he went to Ruan Miantao and Zhang Shouzhen.
To be honest, the two most useful connections that Sixth Master Pu left her were these two.
Zhao Xiaoyue was caught daydreaming in class by the class monitor.
"Zhao Xiaoyue!"
"Zhao Xiaoyue!!"
A boy next to Zhao Xiaoyue shoved her, saying, "The class teacher is calling you!"
Zhao Xiaoyue snapped out of her daze, quickly gathered her thoughts, and stood up. "Here!"
"Tell me, what's the story behind the Emperor's Tomb and this cauldron?"
"Um...this..."
Ban Qisheng adjusted his glasses. "Can you please listen properly?"
"Okay, teacher."
Hua Zi came back at noon.
Across from Zhao Xiaoyue, who was eating in the cafeteria, sat a cool-looking man, which immediately caused a commotion.
Girls frequently come this way.
Hua Zi looked disdainful and coldly refused.
Zhao Xiaoyue asked curiously, "You're over twenty, right? Don't you like being pursued?"
There's no such thing as bodyguards being forbidden from dating in her household.
Hua Zi ran his fingers through his hair. "No point. Let's talk about it in a few years."
Mr. Zhao said, "Let's eat out. Here's your card; it's for your meal."
That's too eye-catching.
Hua Zi took the card and left.
The cafeteria was bustling with people, and every now and then people would discuss the issues that had arisen with the charitable foundation under the RL Group.
"RL Group is a real rip-off, they're not even human. I bet they set up this foundation because they wanted to embezzle the money from the previous leader."
"To put it nicely, isn't it just a case of putting on a show but eating dog meat?"
"How can there be such despicable people in society? I don't know what the country was thinking. They deserve to be shot."
"There are probably many more that haven't been exposed yet, so we must not fall for their tricks."
Mr. Zhao let out a sigh of relief; there was no way he could eat this meal.
The ginkgo avenue in the school park has two rows of neat ginkgo trees, which are bare, but at first glance they look quite magnificent.
"Hey, have you heard? The president of the Huanhai Children's Foundation is forcing people to sleep with him?"
“I’ve heard about it, how could I not have heard about it? It’s 100,000 yuan at a time. Some children died before they even received the aid. It’s so pitiful.”
"besides……"
Zhao Xiaoyue: "..."
Okay, let's go back to the dorm.
Zhao Xiaoyue's phone was full of missed calls from Hou Taotao and Situ Ming.
She first called Hua Zi, and after Hua Zi answered, he said, "Take the helm, Ruan Miantao has agreed."
"Go back to Haishi first and do as I say."
After the call ended, Situ Ming called.
"Master Zhao, I've missed you!"
Situ Ming leaned back on the sofa, looking relaxed and casual, but the weariness in his eyes was impossible to hide.
"Hehe, little brother, I actually miss you too."
Mr. Zhao fiddled with the small beads on his clothes, "I really want to see you!"
"Hmm, so you've thought about it?"
Zhao Xiaoyue paused in her hand, which was fiddling with the beads.
Forehead……
"I think about it in my heart."
Situ Ming drawled out, "Oh~"
"Getting back to the main topic, when do you plan to come back?"
Situ Ming has been observing the RL Group for a long time, but Zhao Xiaoyue has not returned to handle the matter.
Such a matter, unless Zhao Xiaoyue, as the leader, personally steps in to resolve it, will directly impact the RL Group.
Moreover, it involves a murder case.
"About a few hours!"
Situ Ming lit two cigarettes, placing one on the table and holding the other between his fingers, letting it burn slowly.
"Shall I pick you up?"
Zhao Xiaoyue: "Mm."
Zhao Xiaoyue hung up the phone and called the comic convention, only to find that the line was busy and they could only send voice messages to tell her what to do.
When Ban Qisheng received Zhao Xiaoyue's leave request, he stared expressionlessly at the person standing there with her head bowed low.
"Your friend passed away?"
Zhao Xiaoyue nodded sadly, "Yes, he died in a car accident."
"Zhao Xiaoyue, you've grown some guts, haven't you? Tell me the truth, was it Wen Zhengtian's grandson who asked you to take leave?"
After thinking for a long time, Zhao Xiaoyue said, "Teacher, to be honest, I really have something important to do when I go back to Haishi. It's very important, it's a matter of life and death."
"Can't you say?" Ban Qisheng asked.
Zhao Xiaoyue nodded, "I can't say for now."
Ban Qisheng looked at it for a moment, "A few days?"
Zhao Xiaoyue did the math carefully, "It took almost half a month."
"All right……"
"Thank you, Teacher Ban. You are so kind. May you live a long and healthy life and serve Principal Ban for the rest of your life!"
"Go away, go away, stop joking."
Zhao Xiaoyue walked out of Ban Qisheng's office with a bad expression, and her smile vanished in an instant.
I let out a long sigh. Being the boss isn't easy!
At midnight, Zhao Xiaoyue took a private plane back to Haishi.
As soon as she stepped out of the airport, she was embraced by Situ Ming who came towards her.
"Are you cold? Let me warm you up."
His strong arms held Zhao Xiaoyue tightly, his chin resting on his shoulder, pulling her closer into his embrace.
Zhao Xiaoyue was completely wrapped in a dark gray coat, which was pressed against her custom-made suit underneath. Her face was flushed and her heart was pounding.
It felt so warm in my arms.
"Young man, your heart is beating so fast!"
Situ Ming turned his head and kissed the soft, long hair. "Yes, it's because you're back that it's beating faster."
Zhao Xiaoyue squinted comfortably, longing to sleep soundly in someone's arms, just like that day.
"Alright, buddy, there are other people looking this way!"
Situ Ming reluctantly let go of her, his hand quickly searching for Zhao Xiaoyue's hand, and once he found it, he naturally took her hand.
It's been a long time since I held a woman's hand, and I kind of miss it.
