Chapter 188 Resignation

This moderate rain lasted for a week, and during this week Linhai was in complete chaos. First, the president of Huayue was suspected of arson and murder ten years ago, then Qin Jiawang, chairman of Fanjin Group, was murdered, and then Linhai Shijia was suspected of illegal human experiments. Before the netizens could finish their passionate outbursts, Zhou Gaozhen, chairman of Zhongsheng Group, passed away, and Fang Zhiyuan, one of the directors of Heguang Group, also died at home. Like Qin Jiawang's cause of death, it was not announced.

Everyone noticed that something was wrong. Some said that this was a secret fight among the four major families of Linhai, some said that an illegal human experiment in which these four families participated failed, so they all died of illness, and some said that they were punished for their wealth and inhumanity.

The idea of ​​retribution should have been just a joke mixed with emotions, but this time it was different. Everyone in Linhai remembered the magical scene of the golden light flashing that night, making the day night as bright as day. Moreover, the place where the golden light appeared happened to be a property of the Fang family. It was too much of a coincidence.

As for Zhou Gaozhen, who died in the hospital, people simply attributed his death to retribution from heaven.

Two weeks after the news was posted online, there was new progress. The illegal human experiments that Tang Lin and Chang Yi were suspected of were confirmed, and the person behind Tang Lin was also found out, and it was the deceased Fang Zhiyuan.

The Xinxing Art Museum fire case ten years ago finally came to a conclusion. Nan Qingyu "came back from the dead". The once high-spirited and talented architect has become a middle-aged man with white hair and a haggard look. He stood in front of the camera and told the truth that Tang Lin threatened him with his daughter's life to give false testimony to frame Han Zhong as the arsonist, and then he faked his death to plunge the Han family into a whirlpool of public opinion.

Netizens were excited, and they cursed back at Han Joong and the Han family a hundred times and a thousand times the way they had cursed him before. They began to praise Han Joong and the Han family's family style crazily, and Jiang Wu, who was previously cursed as a murderer because of Han Joong, was brought up again, but this time those people all said, "How dare such a loser to touch the president of a wealthy family?" Jiang Wu's fans were furious, but no one thought that there was really anything wrong between these two people.

Besides, Jiang Wu hasn't appeared for a long time.

In the eyes of outsiders, Jiang Wu has not appeared since the news spread on the Internet that he was the murderer of Qin Jiawang. There was no police report and no wanted warrant. There was no news about him. It seemed that he had no involvement in the subsequent changes in the four major families of Linhai. Even his assistant Zhang Xiaoyu was not seen with Jiang Wu. He seemed to have disappeared completely.

Some people said that he had been quietly arrested, some said that he had offended someone and retired from the industry, and some said that he felt that the entertainment industry was not fun and returned to his secluded master's sect.

Some even joked that Jiang Wu had come down to earth to punish those powerful but unkind businessmen, and that he would leave after the punishment. Netizens laughed, but no one took it seriously. Most people thought that Jiang Wu had quietly retired from the entertainment industry. After all, no star could continue to act after being accused of murder, especially since the person who died was Qin Jiawang. It was good enough for him to be alive, and a peaceful retirement could even be considered a good thing.

The death of Qin Jiawang inevitably led to internal strife in the Qin family. Qin Yushu teamed up with his uncle to try to force Qin Yuyan to hand over the management of the group by accusing Qin Yuyan of harboring or even instigating the murderer to kill Qin Jiawang, as well as causing the Qin family to be burdened with a lot of negative news during his tenure. For a while, no one cared about the whereabouts of Jiang Wu, the murder suspect.

Meanwhile, Fang Zhiyi was still flirting with his mistress at Fang's house when he learned of Fang Zhiyuan's death. When he first heard the news, he sneered and asked the other party if she was tired of living. It was not until the other party trembled and stopped talking that he suddenly realized something. He pushed away his mistress who was approaching him and drove to the police station overnight.

He followed the procedure and went to the police station to identify the body. He saw his brother lying on a cold table with a pale face. There was a bloody hole as big as a baby's fist on his chest. The blood had long dried up and turned dark red. The entire chest was completely pierced and the heart disappeared without a trace. The police officer next to him told him that his brother's heart was strangled into pieces and not a bit was left.

Fang Zhiyi felt ridiculous. Looking at Fang Zhiyuan who had stopped breathing in front of him, he wondered if he was dreaming, or if his brother saw that he had been too lazy recently and wanted to scare him.

He opened his mouth, but no sound came out for a long time, as if his throat was blocked by something.

The police officer beside him whispered to him to sign so that he could take the body away.

The word "corpse" suddenly angered him. He suddenly grabbed the young policeman and cursed him, asking him if he knew who his brother was and how dare he curse his brother.

A group of people came over and pulled him away. He could no longer care about his manners and started swearing. The police seemed to be accustomed to such situations and just looked at him quietly, asking him to calm down.

Fang Zhiyi couldn't calm down. In the past two years, even when his brother was lying down, he was still alive. Now he finally woke up, but suddenly stopped breathing. It was like a joke.

Who did it, he asked.

No one answered him, but he could investigate. However, just when he found Han Zhong, his brother's confidant in the group, the vice president of Heguang Group, came to him and said that his brother was involved in the illegal human experiment case of Zhenyi Foundation. The Linhai police have been secretly investigating the Heguang Group and may close down the Heguang Group.

Fang Zhiyi was stunned. Illegal human experiment? His brother? Are you kidding? His brother is such a good man, how could he do such a thing?

…

December ended in the blink of an eye, the old year ended and the new year began. At the beginning of spring, Linhai snowed again, and it was unusually heavy.

The weather in Linhai in April was still a little chilly. The electronic screens in the department store in the city center were showing the new talent show contestant Su Mu. It was really a very popular time.

People passing by would glance at her from time to time and comment on her. Occasionally, you could hear a girl happily calling her a goddess and immediately asking her friends which star she was.

Her friend was a girl who had just graduated. She was wearing a plush cotton coat and a white scarf, and she exhaled hot air. She said, "Let's eat something good. You call this a fairy? You must have never seen a real fairy."

"Have you seen it?" her friend asked.

The girl snorted complacently and flipped through the exclusive album in her phone, which contained a photo from a costume drama and four promotional videos of LIMU. The young man in the video had long hair and amber eyes shaped like a bird with its wings spread. His expression was as calm and composed as a lake on a snowy mountain.

The girl's friends were surprised and asked, "Who is this? Whose newcomer?"

"It's not a newcomer, it's an old one, named Jiang Wu, who was my former crush, but later retired from the circle." The girl murmured with some regret, and then said proudly, "I don't know if he is still alive."

Although she didn't know what the other party was doing now, in her opinion, the people who became popular this year seemed to be of the same cold and aloof type as Jiang Wu, but they could not copy Jiang Wu's face and his unique temperament.

But she also knew that the entertainment industry was always changing very quickly, and countless amazing people would be forgotten, not to mention someone who was only a flash in the pan like Jiang Wu.

After the advertisement on the electronic screen, there was a highly technological advertisement. It was the artificial intelligence Wantu system just released by Huayue Group this spring. It claimed to be the first stepping stone for mankind to enter science fiction novels. After the first batch was put on the market, it has received a very good response. After the other three companies in Linhai encountered problems, Huayue Group's momentum has become more and more fierce, and there is a tendency for it to dominate the market.

Everyone has watched this commercial for a month and it doesn't feel new. But today it's a little different. After the commercial ends, there is an indoor interview. A handsome and mature man in a high-end suit says to the camera, "... Huayue's management is capable of supporting the entire group. I also believe that my father did a better job than I did... In my opinion, life is a wilderness with countless possibilities and choices..."

The short clip was only three seconds long, probably due to a playback error, but it caused an uproar. People immediately went online to search for related terms and found out that the executive president of Huayue Group had really been replaced. Although Han Zhong still held shares in the group, the president had been replaced by Chairman Han Yun. The interview was from a financial column. Originally, it was just intended to be a report on the future development trend of technology products. Unexpectedly, when it was about to end, the president of Huayue suddenly made such a statement, announcing his resignation in a very high-profile manner.

"Life is such a mess. Being a CEO is boring. If you don't like it, you can let me be the CEO!"

"Even if he's not the president anymore, he's still a rich man. Do you think he'll be treated like a slave like you?"

"Fuck, the defense is broken."

"The rich travel in a very comfortable way. You think you can take a train at 3 a.m. like us, but they have private jets."

"…Am I such a despicable person? Why do others discard the things I have always dreamed of?"

"Not really. As far as I remember, Han Zhong is the only child of the Han family. What will happen to the Han family if he doesn't inherit the family business? I guess he's not feeling well and is looking for an excuse to go get treatment."

"A boss won't get sick, he'll just have a stomach problem. Of course, he could be chasing his little wife who's running with the ball~"

"I remember he and the Qin family are married, why haven't they held a wedding yet?"

"Did the guy upstairs just get out of jail this year? The Qin and Han families are at loggerheads, and you still want them to hold a wedding?"

"It all started with a certain mysterious man, hehe."

"I give up. Can the lesbian above stop matchmaking? In your eyes, are all men gay? Even if Han Zhong is gay, he can't be with someone from the entertainment industry, let alone a murderer..."

"Haha, I've taken a screenshot. Do you dare to take responsibility for what you said?"

"Who are you talking about? Han Zhong is bent?"

"I won't allow it! He's so handsome, he can't bend! Otherwise, don't blame me for going crazy!"

“…”

I don’t know whether netizens are crazy or not, but Rong Anzhou is really crazy because he knew that the interview happened a month and a half ago. During this month and a half, every time he called Han Zhong, Han Zhong said he was busy. As a result, when he called Yao Ping today, he found out that Han Zhong had not been to the company for more than a month!

As soon as the call was connected, he roared, "Where the fuck are you?!"
