"The A project was outsourced to other construction companies, and they should be in charge of their workers’ wages. If there is a delay, they shouldn’t be looking to the Gu Clan, it’s not our responsibility," Gu Yan said with a stern face.
"We tried to tell them the sa, but these people didn’t listen, they’re extrely unreasonable. They argued that since the buildings for project A belong to the Gu Clan, we should take responsibility. They refused to leave, making it seem like they were seeking hard-earned money. The journalists picked up on this and reported recklessly claiming that our group is ruthless and heartless. We didn’t dare call the police to drive them away for fear that things would escalate, making it harder for us to justify our handling of the situation."
Gu Yan grew icy cold. If he could not guess who was stirring up trouble behind the scenes, he would indeed be a fool.
ThirdYoung Master Jun, stirring up the workers to cause trouble.
"First, make an advance paynt of the money they’re owed to the construction workers. Once they’ve received the money, they naturally won’t protest anymore; we need to quickly put this matter to rest."
Unexpectedly, after a while, the company’s logistics manager called in a panic saying:
"We have an ergency. A batch of contaminated produce made its way into the cafeteria, and now many employees have food poisoning and have been sent to the hospital. Although it’s not serious, the dia is exploiting the situation and it’s damaging the company’s image."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yan clenched his fists, the veins on the back of his hands protruding.
In the following days, various troubles continued to brew. Although they were not life-threatening issues, the chatter about the situation was so noisy that it damaged the Gu Clan’s reputation.
The stock market was also significantly affected, continuously declining.
"Who says you must deliver a fatal blow to be satisfied? Watching you gradually run out of options one step at a ti, is quite interesting too," Third Young Master smirked, looking at the screen abuzz with news about the Gu Clan.
Ye Lu, you want to be happy? You might as well forget it. I want you to see with your own eyes how the man you love is driven to the brink by . I want you both to regret and to feel unbearable pain."
Feiyu watched him silently, feeling extrely sad in his heart.
It seems fulfilling to take revenge, but why does Third Young’s face show no joy? Indeed, real letting go ans not bothering about those people or matters anymore.
However, Third Young is so stubborn and invested. Even if he succeeds in his revenge, this process is a rciless stabbing of his own heart. The deeper you love, the deeper you hate.
...
After all these incidents, there was a rift between Ye Lu and Gu Yan.
When she saw Gu Yan so troubled and fatigued, she couldn’t help but soften her heart and asked, "Is Third Young behind all of this?"
"Who else could it be?" Coldness flashed in Gu Yan’s eyes.
"What can we do now? The situation at Gu Clan must be very complicated," she said, noticing that Third Young seed to be on a collision course with them. This man had, indeed, a powerful thirst for vengeance.
This reminded her of the night when he said he would make them experience the miserable consequences of offending him, and she couldn’t help but shudder.
Gu Yan held her gently, comforting with a weary voice, "Don’t worry. These are small tricks to tarnish the Gu Clan’s image, but they can’t shake our foundation. There won’t be much use of it; wait for a while and when the news dies down, everything will be fine."
"I hope so", Ye Lu sighed in relief, not wanting the Gu Group to suffer because of her and Gu Yan’s personal affairs.
But soon a shocking piece of news shook the entire group internally, causing great anxiety and dwindling morale among the Gui Clan mbers.
Gu Yan received news from the human resources departnt - a large number of directors in the group had handed in resignation letters!
"These directors are in important positions within the Gu Group, holding real power and having access to various company secrets. Why would they all resign collectively?" Ye Lu also turned pale.
