“Esteemed guest?” Gu Chen sneered and released his grip. Recently, Gu Hai’s actions have become too frequent, and he even targeted the Xu family.
“Of course, don’t think just because you’re the president of Gu’s Group, I, as the general manager, have no authority.” Gu Hai didn’t show any weakness in his momentum, especially with so many employees watching and in front of Xu Wen and Charlie; he absolutely couldn’t appear weak.
He supported Xu Wen and asked with concern, “Miss Xu, are you okay? Gu Chen is always like this. He doesn’t know how to cherish and protect beauty. Don’t mind him.”
He then pointed to the receptionist beside Song Fan and said, “You, take Miss Xu to the waiting room now, and call a doctor to come and examine her carefully.”
The receptionist girl dared not defy and quickly approached to support Xu Wen.
However, Xu Wen directly shook off her hand, “I won’t go. Why should I leave? Why can that slut Song Fan enter Gu’s Group? She…”
When she saw Gu Chen’s cold gaze, she immediately stopped talking. For some reason, his eyes made her feel inexplicably guilty, as if he would tear her apart the next second.
Gu Hai gave a signal, and his secretary approached, holding onto Xu Wen and whispering something in her ear. Only then did she leave with them.
Charlie watched the whole drama. He raised an eyebrow and said, “I didn’t come here in vain. President Gu’s charm is indeed formidable. I heard that the Xu family is also one of the four major families in the Capital, and Miss Xu is the sole heir.”
He glanced meaningfully at Song Fan nearby, then turned to Gu Chen and said, “Allow me to congratulate you in advance.”
Gu Chen ignored his sarcastic words and directly stood in front of Gu Hai. “Since you claim to be the general manager of the group, you should act in the interest of the group. The cooperation with the Brown Group seems to be delayed; the board meeting is in twenty minutes.”
After saying this, he directly took Song Fan’s hand and left.
Behind him, Gu Hai was furious, “How dare you command me? The cooperation with the Brown Group was agreed upon from the beginning. If you hinder the contract signing today, it’s because you don’t want everyone to make money, right?”
He tried to raise his voice, but in fact, he didn’t want Gu Chen to hear him. Gu Hai was well aware of the problems in this contract, but he had to put on an appearance of righteousness, letting everyone in the company know that he was the one genuinely working for the good of Gu’s Group.
Song Fan, following behind Gu Chen, wrinkled her brows the whole time. She didn’t know when Gu Hai had cooperated with Charlie, but it seemed to be a tricky situation. Gu Chen unexpectedly wanted to use the power of the board to apply pressure, indicating that the matter was significant.
It wasn’t until Gu Chen’s office that he let go of her hand. Turning around, he saw Song Fan frowning. He coughed lightly and said, “Xu Wen is not my fiancée, and I won’t marry her.”
Song Fan, still thinking about the recent events, didn’t catch his words. She lifted her head in confusion, “What did you say? What happened to Xu Wen?”
“Well, it’s nothing.” Gu Chen sighed and saw that she didn’t seem to care much.
Upon seeing the somewhat disappointed expression on his face, Song Fan couldn’t understand, “Did you bring me here today to discuss the cooperation between Charlie and your second uncle? Did you find out they colluded, and the person who tried to assassinate you last time was sent by them?”
Getting back to business, Gu Chen restrained his emotions. He opened the computer, saying, “It’s not their doing; it’s just a sideshow. I discovered some things about Li Lan, so I asked you to come and take a look.”
Walking to the computer, Song Fan saw that Gu Chen had entered the government’s personnel file system, and the opened page was Li Lan’s file.
“Li Lan did indeed enter the government department; she had excellent written test scores, and the interview video I’ve watched is flawless.” He pointed at the computer screen, “But look at this medical examination report.”
Song Fan widened her eyes. Li Lan had many scars on her body, and there were records of multiple fractures, even fractures in multiple places.
She had claimed to have had a car accident abroad, but there was no information about her abroad, and she didn’t have any major illnesses, so her medical examination was considered passing. However, all the examination results were recorded.
“These are injuries from fights, not a car accident.” Song Fan said affirmatively, “A car accident couldn’t cause fractures at different time intervals. Look at her
X-rays; several fractures have intervals of over three or four months, and these look more like knife wounds. She’s lying.”
Gu Chen just nodded. He had a question in his mind that he hadn’t asked yet.
But Song Fan had guessed what he wanted to ask and said directly, “Are you wondering if I have such injuries?”
