Oops! The sickly Mr. Gu fainted again

Chapter 304: Mr. Gu realizes the seriousness of the situation

Ji Jie followed Gu Yuchen into the door with red eyes.

Before she sat down, Gu Yuchen looked at her coldly and uttered two words faintly: "Apologize."

Seeing Ji Jie was stunned for a moment without any reaction, Gu Yuchen repeated: "I said, apologize."

His eyes were cold and sharp, and they looked like they were about to pierce Ji Jie.

"Yes...I'm sorry..."

"If this is your attitude, then we have nothing to talk about."

Gu Yuchen stood up and prepared to see the guest off. Ji Jie immediately begged anxiously with a trembling voice: "Brother Yuchen, please help our family. It was my fault just now. I shouldn't have said that to Ye Xingyao. I was wrong!"

Gu Yuchen's eyes darkened for a moment, "Tell me, what's wrong."

Uncle Ji had always been very kind to him. When Gu's Group was in trouble last time, Uncle Ji had been secretly helping Gu. Even after knowing that it was Ji Jie who had caused the trouble, he locked her up at home all day and night and hardly let her go out.

In fact, Gu Yuchen was already secretly worried when he heard Ji Jie say that Uncle Ji was in trouble.

Ji Jie took out a document from her bag.

"All the important insider information of the company leaked out within two or three days. All the partners terminated their cooperation with us on the grounds that we breached the contract. There was even a run on the bank. Those contracts with no problems also terminated their cooperation with us... We lost 20 billion in one week..."

"Besides...my father is under investigation...they are said to be suspected of business crimes...the company is very strict in order to avoid public opinion risks, so there are not many people who know about this matter."

Ji Jie finished speaking with a trembling voice, her eyes already red.

After hearing this, Gu Yuchen said nothing.

He looked into the distance, his face solemn, and it was unknown what he was thinking about. This pattern was too familiar to him.

"okay, I get it."

He had a vague guess in his mind, but he couldn't be sure without evidence.

"Brother Yuchen..." Ji Jie looked at him pleadingly with red eyes.

"I will investigate who did it. Regarding the cooperation order, I will contact several companies with larger amounts first to see if there is any room for maneuver. You can send all the contracts and other relevant information to Encore later."

"Then my dad..."

"Don't worry, the investigation and evidence collection will not be so fast. I will allocate some funds first to help Ji's company operate normally."

"Thank you, Brother Yuchen..."

……

After Ji Jie left, Gu Yuchen stared blankly at the information she left behind.

He had been spending every day in the study attending meetings and reading documents recently because of Ye Xingyao's exhibition matters and the subsequent cooperation with the French Chamber of Commerce. Now, there were also matters concerning the Ji family, which made Ye Xingyao worry involuntarily.

"Take a rest first and think about this tomorrow." Ye Xingyao walked up and took the information from his hand.

After a few seconds, Gu Yuchen replied with an "OK".

"So... is someone trying to frame Ji Jie's family?"

Gu Yuchen looked solemn, tapping the sofa rhythmically with his fingers, as if he was thinking about something. Then he answered in a deep voice: "Yes. But... maybe the other party's target is not the Ji family."

But it’s Gu’s.

Gu Yuchen didn't say anything else, but picked up his phone and quickly sent a message to An Ke.

[Convene the Legal Department for a video conference in the conference room at 9 a.m. tomorrow]

Uncle Ji had never offended anyone in the business world. Even if it was a business war, the purpose of causing Ji's family to suffer a loss of 20 billion within a week was clearly to bring down Ji's family.

There are only a few companies that can help Ji's deal with the bank run crisis. Among these companies, the one most likely to help Ji's is Gu's.

The Gu and Ji families are on good terms, and this is something everyone in the business circle knows.

Gu Yuchen was sensitive enough to realize that the other party's real target was actually him. This strategy of killing two birds with one stone was too obvious.

If the help is not adequate, it will be useless. If the Ji family is defeated, the Gu family will lose a large amount of funds for no reason. If the help is adequate, the Gu family will be completely dragged into the quagmire. If the high amount of circulating funds cannot be circulated, they will be dragged into the water together, and they may even be charged with a business crime.

The other party obviously couldn't attack Gu directly, so they took such a long detour and waited for him to jump. And whether he helped or not, the other party would reap the benefits.

Gu Yuchen frowned slightly, and suddenly felt a dull pain in his temple. But in the blink of an eye, he saw Ye Xingyao's worry about him.

"I'm fine, don't worry. Go to bed tonight and don't wait for me. I need to make some emergency plans for the company immediately." Gu Yuchen touched Ye Xingyao's cheek.

Ye Xingyao hesitated. It was obviously Ji Jie's company that had problems, so why did Gu Yuchen make a plan? But seeing that he was uneasy, she did not stop him.

"Okay, but I have to accompany you."

"No, just go to sleep. I'll sleep after I'm done with my work."

"No! Otherwise I won't be allowed!"

Ye Xingyao looked anxious and angry. Gu Yuchen touched the kitten's head lovingly and said, "Okay, then I'll try to finish it as soon as possible."

----

Ye Xingyao had been waiting for him on the sofa in the study.

Gu Yuchen was always on the phone, sometimes to the legal department, sometimes to the project department, and sometimes to the public relations department.

It's already 1:30 in the morning.

Seeing that Gu Yuchen was still busy, Ye Xingyao wanted to go over and persuade him to take a rest several times, but he did not hide his obvious anger on the other end of the phone when he was on the phone. Ye Xingyao silently felt that this incident seemed very serious, so she did not go over to disturb him.

But she gradually felt so drowsy lying on the sofa that she couldn't even open her eyes, and simply fell asleep.

It was already past two in the morning when Gu Yuchen made preliminary arrangements for each department. He saw the time and suddenly became alert. He looked at Ye Xingyao who was sleeping on the sofa and frowned.

"Kitten." Gu Yuchen walked up to Ye Xingyao and called softly, his voice low and gentle. He slowly lowered his gaze to Ye Xingyao's peaceful sleeping face, his eyes full of doting and love.

Then he carefully picked up Ye Xingyao horizontally, let her body lean against his arms, and walked to the bedroom. After covering her with a quilt, Gu Yuchen sat on the bed and stared at her quietly, and kissed her between her eyebrows.

Then he tiptoed out of the room and closed the door.

He returned to his study.
