Huo Beiting's smiling face suddenly turned cold, and Xue Chen, who was unaware of the situation, was confused.
"Lu Dong? Who is he?"
Huo Beiting didn't remember hearing this name again, and why did the people from the Gu family want to look for Cheng Zijue?
"I just had someone investigate. It's an assistant that Gu's recently hired. I don't know what Gu Mingche has been doing lately. For a month straight, they've basically replaced one assistant every week. Not only assistants, but even the lower-level staff have been replaced. I heard that they all resigned voluntarily."
Huo Beiting's eyes dimmed slightly, and he had completely forgotten about Gu Mingche.
"Change one every week?"
Huo Beiting looked up at Xue Chen, then turned on the speaker of his phone and told Xue Chen what Cheng Zijue had just said.
"Could it be that all this was Gu Mingche's doing? But I've checked, and he's only been negotiating business according to his mother's wishes."
Xue Chen frowned, somewhat puzzled.
"Let's first listen to what Cheng Zijue has to say."
Xue Chen nodded, muted his voice, and listened attentively to Cheng Zijue's words.
"Lu Dong told my assistant on the phone that she's been unhappy with Gu Mingche for a long time. She said that Gu Mingche's temper has been getting worse lately, and he often beats and kicks them. There's an assistant named Xu who's been injured a lot lately. Oh, and when Lu Dong was talking about Assistant Xu, her tone was a little off. I guess she likes him. I guess she's heartbroken seeing Assistant Xu get hurt so much, so she wants to deal with Gu Mingche."
Huo Beiting nodded, tapping the table slowly with his fingers.
Xue Chen shook his head at Huo Beiting. Huo Beiting understood what he meant and nodded slightly.
"Let's see first. Gu Mingche hasn't done anything recently. If we rush over to deal with him, it would be unnecessary and a waste of money and resources."
"I thought so too, which is why I kept letting my assistant answer the phone. I didn't say anything the whole time, but I heard from Lu Dong that Gu Mingche has been having a bad temper lately. But as far as I know, Gu's company has been doing pretty well recently. What on earth is Gu Mingche so angry about?"
This is also the point that Huo Beiting couldn't figure out. After thinking about it for a while, he still had no idea.
"Let's put this matter aside for now. We have more important things to do right now. As for that Lu Dong...if she contacts us again, just tell her that there's no need for us to deal with the Gu Corporation unless she can explain the reason. Of course, we can't say that."
"I understand. By the way, you just said there was something more important. What was it?"
Cheng Zijue was a little confused, wondering if it was about his sister-in-law?
But Huo Beiting seems to get along well with his sister-in-law, so what important thing could there be?
"The Yan family's affairs."
After Huo Beiting said this, Cheng Zijue suddenly remembered.
Recently, the Yan family didn't know whether they had offended someone or someone wanted to swallow up the Yan family. Recently, they have been dealing with the Yan family with good methods, which has indeed caused a certain impact on the Yan family.
He had been on a business trip abroad for some time and had just returned recently. He happened to hear about the Yan family's affairs, but he was not in time to help. When he came back, the Huo family had just invested.
"Is that so? The mastermind hasn't been found yet?"
"No."
As Huo Beiting spoke, he took a deep breath. Cheng Zijue also noticed that Huo Beiting was a little irritated, so he didn't say any more nonsense. After talking about some important things, he hung up the phone.
Huo Beiting then went to a meeting to process documents. He was busy until noon. It was only a call from Yan's that made Huo Beiting stop, otherwise he could have continued working.
"Is that so... I'll go ask our president and call you back later."
The call was answered by an assistant below.
Huo Beiting and Xue Chen were about to go out for dinner when the assistant came over and told them about Yan's affairs.
After saying that, Xue Chen raised his eyebrows at Huo Beiting.
"How about it? Do you want to go and join in? They're definitely here to thank you, and then you can explain your identity naturally. That way, my sister-in-law won't be mad at you!"
As Xue Chen spoke, he touched Huo Beiting's shoulder, and his smile was truly servile.
Huo Beiting glanced over indifferently, and instantly stopped Xue Chen from saying the rest of his words.
"Forget it, forget it. You can do whatever you want. Anyway, I have to tell you. The opportunity is here. If you tell me now, the worst that can happen is that my sister-in-law will ignore you for a few days. But considering that you have helped Yan's company so much, my sister-in-law will definitely forgive you. That way, you don't have to hide it all the time in the future!"
Huo Beiting was a little hesitant. As Xue Chen said, this was indeed a good opportunity.
However, Huo Beiting planned to reveal his identity to Yan Qing bit by bit first, and then reveal it all at once.
Yan Qing was a person who didn't like others to deceive her. Now that she knew that he had deceived her for so long, he was a little worried. Although Yan Qing would forgive him in the future, it would only be forgiveness.
"The time is not right yet. Let's talk about it later."
"So this dinner party is going to be postponed?"
Huo Beiting shook his head, looked at Xue Chen and smiled at him.
Xue Chen was immediately horrified and stepped back in fear.
"Don't smile at me like that, I'm scared!"
Xue Chen covered his chest with his hands, as if he was guarding against a pervert, which made Huo Beiting feel helpless.
"I wanted you to attend this dinner. Then, just say I'm out on a business trip. Forget it. Say I have a meeting this afternoon and I really can't make time. Oh, I remember Grandpa sent back some foreign specialties a few days ago. You can take them with you."
When Xue Chen heard this, his face was full of helplessness.
"How long are you going to delay this? This is truly a great opportunity. If you miss this opportunity, you won't be able to have it again."
Huo Beiting shook his head and looked at the distant sky.
This is the time when the sun is at its hottest. Yan Qing hates such hot days the most. Whenever this time comes, she will never go out. She will stay in the air-conditioned house until it is not so hot outside.
Yan Qing hates hot weather just as she hates being lied to. Once she finds out that someone is lying to her, and for such a ridiculous reason, she will definitely retreat into her shell and will not come out no matter what happens outside.
Huo Beiting was afraid that Yan Qing would retreat into her shell. So what should he do in the future to get Yan Qing out of her shell?
"The time is not right yet, so go ahead and do it. Don't worry about this matter."
Huo Beiting waved his hand and Xue Chen was helpless.
But since the person himself has said so, there is nothing he, an outsider, can say.
