Zhou Wang glanced at Zhang Shiling but didn’t respond to her. Instead, he walked over to the sofa, sat down, poured himself a glass of cold cola, and after taking a big gulp, he said calmly:
"Two months ago, Guo Sanli’s body was found by the sea. The records show that he had rented a boat alone to go to sea a day earlier. The boat was provided by an individual who did not have a business registration."
"But this so-called individual was once an employee of a company nad Jingtai Fishing, and this now-defunct fishing company was once under Yuanri Ship Group."
Upon hearing the information Zhou Wang revealed, everyone present subconsciously glanced at Shen Li, who is now the chairman of Yuanri Ship.
Shen Li’s face turned slightly pale as he looked incredulously at Zhou Wang, a flicker of confusion crossing his eyes, as if he couldn’t understand how Zhou Wang could know such confidential matters.
While everyone was stunned, Zhou Wang continued:
"We all know that Guo Sanli had an illegitimate child abroad with his first love. However, the child had changed his na... This matter was initially only known to Guo Sanli and his wife, as well as the foreign shareholder who backed Guo Sanli’s rise to power, but later, another person knew."
This ti it was Zhang Shiling’s turn to feel uneasy in her seat, but Zhou Wang quickly continued the topic.
"This person passed the news to another person... After that, the illegitimate child disappeared for three days, and the police in Europe have not yet found the kidnapper."
Zhou Wang glanced at He Jinglun, and as He averted his gaze, Zhou Wang asked, "Got a light?"
He Jinglun quickly stepped forward, took out a lighter, and personally lit a cigarette for Zhou Wang.
As he exhaled a puff of smoke, Zhou Wang’s face beca blurred in the mist.
"Mr. Chen..."
"Hmm?"
Upon hearing Zhou Wang call him, Chen Qiaosheng, who was still digesting what Zhou Wang had previously said, instinctively responded.
"On the day Mrs. Guo jumped, your n were on the scene, weren’t they?"
"Mr. Zhou, I don’t understand what you an..."
Chen Qiaosheng’s face changed.
"According to the hospital’s ergency records, if they had intervened sooner, Mrs. Guo might not have ended up paralyzed... would you consider it murder to stand by and do nothing?"
Without waiting for Chen Qiaosheng to reply, Zhou Wang shifted his gaze to Liu Heng, who was gleefully watching the others.
eting Zhou Wang’s deep gaze, Liu Heng didn’t seem nervous, but before he could puff out his chest, Zhou Wang calmly remarked,
"Mr. Liu, two months ago, you claid to have gone to Ao Island. So why is there no record of your na in the exit logs?"
With a sudden "shh," cold sweat instantly beaded on Liu Heng’s forehead.
The others present didn’t know why his face suddenly turned pale, but they keenly sensed that Zhou Wang’s words must have concealed so mystery, though the information gap left them in the dark.
While Liu Heng mumbled, unsure of how to answer, Zhou Wang didn’t seem to need a reply.
He just sighed and asked Guo Wangshan, "Brother Guo, when did Guo Sanli agree to the acquisition of those electronic companies?"
"The agreent was signed five months ago, it’s officially recorded."
After a mont of silence, Guo Wangshan replied.
"Then why... why has it co to this point?"
Zhou Wang questioned in a low voice.
The room fell silent, and it seed no one could answer him, including Guo Wangshan, who only opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything.
"Mr. Zhou, may I ask what exactly happened tonight?"
"Oh, nothing major, just Guo Nansheng planted about a dozen hydrogen bombs in this building."
Zhou Wang said with a light laugh.
Everyone was taken aback and then drew in a sharp breath.
"And now, are those bombs still there?"
He Jinglun quickly asked.
"Since I’m still here talking to you, what do you think?"
As everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Zhou Wang stood up.
"You should be thankful, this ti I stopped Guo Nansheng, and the bomb didn’t really go off, but who can assure that a second bomb won’t appear?"
Zhou Wang cast a aningful glance at everyone, "The banquet has already started, and I apologize for making you miss the dance. Fortunately, the night is long, and I hope you can still keep a good mood."
With that, Zhou Wang left the room.
Guo Wangshan stared blankly at Zhou Wang’s back, his eyes slightly dazed.
Because in that mont, Zhou Wang’s figure seed to finally rge with the voice on the phone from before, an oppressive feeling of control, making even soone as powerful as Guo Wangshan find it a bit hard to breathe.
Turning around, the other five in the room were all showing different expressions, but clearly, each of them was weighed down with their thoughts.
...it wasn’t because of the bombs, but because of Zhou Wang’s words laden with warnings.
Guo Wangshan shook his head and said, "Everyone, whatever the cause, we did take things too far back then. Before we truly anger Mr. Zhou, I think we should find a way to redy it, don’t you?"
...
The dim corridor of the International Gold Center’s Phase 1 office building, illuminated by green exit signs.
The hurried sound of footsteps echoed, as a woman with disheveled hair was desperately fleeing downwards.
She deeply regretted wearing high heels today...
