Gu Yao pushed up his glasses.
"It seems that Mr. Zou doesn't have the habit of reading the news."
Just as he finished speaking, Zou Weiqi's phone rang.
He answered the phone and heard a tearful voice on the other end: "President Zou! Something terrible has happened! The company is in crisis!"
"What's going on?" Zou Weiqi looked at Gu Yao with fluctuating pupils.
His intuition told him that this matter was inextricably linked to Gu Yao.
"Regarding the labor dispute, I don't know where the other party got the original contract from, they just posted it online! And those things that the young lady altered, they've already gone out of control online!"
And all those shady things the company did in the past, somehow, have been exposed today! A special task force has been set up, and they just sealed off the company… In short, Mr. Zou, run! The company is finished!
As soon as he finished speaking, the other end of the phone hung up.
With a thud, Zou Weiqi's phone, along with his cigar, fell to the ground.
"Gu Yao... why did you do this?" He just wanted an answer.
I want to die knowing why!
Gu Yao leaned back.
"Because your daughter touched someone she shouldn't have."
Zou Weiqi turned around and slapped Zou Linlin across the face, instantly swelling up her pretty cheeks.
"dad!"
"What exactly did you do?"
"I...I...didn't do anything!"
"Really? Mr. Zou, why don't you ask Wang Laojiu what she had him do yesterday?" Gu Yao reminded him.
"Tell me! What did you make him do yesterday?" Zou Weiqi roared, his voice cracking, and with a loud slap, he slapped Zou Linlin again.
Zou Linlin, who lost her balance from being slapped, fell directly to the ground.
His palms and thighs were covered in blood from cuts made by the broken glass on the ground.
"I... I just asked him to teach a woman a lesson."
After decades of hard work and struggle, Zou Weiqi instantly understood that his good-for-nothing daughter must have gotten involved with Gu Yao's woman, which was why she had attracted Gu Yao's revenge.
But……
“Teacher Gu, is it really worth you capsizing the entire Junhe Group because of one woman? Yes, I’ve fallen into the water, but don’t forget, you’re on this ship too.”
We've known each other for so many years, we're practically brothers! As the old saying goes, brothers are like limbs, women are like clothes. Clothes can be changed, but limbs can never be severed!
If you don't bail me out today, I'll be sleeping in a jail cell tomorrow, and the day after that you'll be sleeping in the same cell as me.
Gu Yao smiled.
"Mr. Zou, you're too kind. I don't have the good fortune to be in a prison cell."
"Really? Are you sure you have the ability to get away?" Zou Weiqi didn't believe it.
He chose to be tied to Junhe in the first place because he was impure. After all, if Gu Yao couldn't bail him out, then no one else in the world could.
"I know your reasons for choosing Junhe back then. It's just a pity that you, Mr. Zou, are so smart, yet you have such an incredibly stupid daughter. I'm only able to benefit from her."
"You...you're using her as a shield?"
"Mr. Zou, you're wrong. Weren't those things all done by her behind her back?" Gu Yao shrugged.
Zou Linlin's eyes widened.
So when she came to Junhe for the job, Gu Yao already knew her identity!
Her successful job application wasn't due to her exceptional abilities, but rather because Gu Yao discovered the problems at Yuanyang and conveniently used her as a shield!
At that moment, Zou Linlin realized how foolish she had been!
"Dad! I...I don't know him...ah!"
Before Zou Linlin could finish speaking, she was kicked two meters away.
The shards of glass scattered on the floor cut Zou Linlin's fair skin, leaving a bright red bloodstain.
She looked at her father, who used to dote on her, with eyes full of resentment.
It was clearly Gu Yao who did it, so why did he vent all his anger on her?
Zou Weiqi suddenly knelt down on the ground.
"Teacher Gu, please, for the sake of our years of friendship, spare my life! From today onwards, Zou Linlin is no longer a member of the Zou family. Do with her as you see fit! Please, help me. I just want to live! Just live!"
However, before he could finish speaking, Uncle Hat rushed in.
After showing their identification, Zou Weiqi and Zou Linlin were immediately taken away.
"Teacher Gu! Save Teacher Gu!" Zou Weiqi's voice echoed throughout the building.
Meanwhile, Zhou Chunhua, who was waiting for the photo frame to be repaired, saw Zou Linlin's photo and the notice of her detention on the television screen.
Isn't Ocean Heavy Industry the client of Junhe?
She quickly took out her phone and called Gu Yao.
"There's been an accident at the ocean shipping company, did you know?"
"Know."
"Will this affect you?"
"No, don't worry."
If Gu Yao says it's nothing, then it must be nothing.
Her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.
"Huahua, you can come back to work anytime if you've rested well."
"Okay, okay."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Chunhua didn't think about it.
When she returned to work at the law firm, the way her colleagues looked at her and their attitude towards her was completely different from before.
To put it simply, they used to occasionally have her do some simple but complicated tasks.
But today, when they saw her, they all went around her.
Until she heard it in the bathroom...
"Do you think Zou Linlin going to jail is because of what she did to Assistant Zhou?"
"You think so too? Look, quite a few people have been bullied by Zou Linlin, but she can bully anyone without any problems, but when it comes to Assistant Zhou, things go wrong."
