Chapter 218: Chapter 218: Plotting Step by Step_1
“Ayun, don’t worry. My brother is with her! You should get some rest now!”

From time to time, he adjusted the cooling patch on my forehead. As soon as the old one warmed up, he would replace it with a new one.

I didn’t want to burden him, so I closed my eyes and obediently went to sleep.

In actuality, I couldn’t sleep, as I could still feel the warmth of his palm on my forehead from time to time.

Later.

He stood far away, making a phone call by the window. His voice was quiet, but hoarse.

Perhaps due to the medication, I finally drifted into a drowsy sleep.

When I woke up again, slightly dazed, in the middle of the night.

I saw Ding Yinuo standing alone in a shadowy corner, smoking with his back against the wall.

He looked weary, his eyes hollow.

I wanted to go and comfort him.

But I thought better of it.

The strong-willed him would probably be least willing to let me see his wounds right now.

The next morning, when I woke up, Ding Yinuo had already left.

The needle in the back of my hand had been removed.

A nurse came over to take my temperature.

“Well, it’s not a problem. The fever’s gone!”

“Thank you!”

I got up from the sickbed, feeling a bit sore and swollen. On the table, there was a small note left by Ding Yinuo.

“I saw you sleeping so peacefully that I didn’t want to wake you. I’m going home to check on things. When you wake up, you can go to the pharmacy and get your medication to go home. Remember to drink lots of hot water, and don’t go to work for a few days. Take some rest.”

The familiar handwriting, warmed by care.

I carefully stored the note in my bag, collected my medicines according to his instructions, and left.

I felt more clear-headed today.

I picked up my mobile phone and did a quick search online. There were no updates on Ding’s father’s situation. It seemed that either Ding Yinuo had taken control of the public opinion, or Gu Yuanzhou hadn’t taken action yet.

As I was thinking about this, my phone suddenly rang.

The screen flashed with Gu Yuanzhou’s number.

I hesitated for a while before answering.

“I heard you went to the Song family last night. What on earth are you trying to do?”

I was silent for three seconds before I angrily retorted,

“Gu Yuanzhou, you’re a beast!”

Gu Yuanzhou chuckled coldly,

“You’re still stubborn, huh? It seems Ding Yinuo’s plight hasn’t been enough! Maybe, I should be more ruthless and cruel to deserve the two words you just said.”

“Gu Yuanzhou! I warn you, I have found your weakness. If you don’t want to lose Zhenyi Company! You’d better behave! Stop hurting the innocent!”

“Really? What weakness have you found?”

There was caution in Gu Yuanzhou’s tone. He was testing me to see if I had a genuine card up my sleeve.

“Gu Yuanzhou… If you don’t want others to know, you shouldn’t have done it in the first place!”

“You deliberately got close to Wu Lijuan to get to me?”

He asked, his tone questioning.

“Yes!”

I didn’t want to deny it.

Gu Yuanzhou chuckled lightly, his voice veering towards disdain,

“Empty threats! I Gu Yuanzhou do things without leaving any weaknesses!”

“Gu Yuanzhou! I warn you once more, I am targeting Zhenyi Company! If you value Zhenyi, you’d better stop!”

At this point, I couldn’t say much more.

If I were more explicit, he would patch up this loophole as he did with the tax issue last time, and I would have no means of threatening him.

I didn’t want to do this, but he left me no choice.

“I don’t give in to threats. If you have something on me, bring it on!”

Gu Yuanzhou was extremely arrogant. As soon as he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

This jerk, was he really going to force me to ruin Zhenyi Company?

I was so angry that I leaned against the wall, shaking all over.

No, I can’t get angry!

I had to stay calm.

I had to think of a countermeasure!

Ding Yinuo was busy handling matters at home and couldn’t be bothered with the company. I had to stabilize the employees in the company. Otherwise, Ding Yinuo wouldn’t be able to juggle it all.

Everything was going well in the morning, seamlessly.

But in the afternoon, when I returned to the company after lunch,

As soon as I walked through the door, I saw groups of employees huddled together, whispering to each other.

“Hey, I heard that Manager Ding’s father committed a crime. He embezzled billions…”

“Didn’t they say he’s gone?”

“He committed suicide out of guilt! Too bad he couldn’t keep a good end. But even if he did commit suicide, it’s useless. The debts still have to be paid.”

“Wow, if they have to come up with that much money, our company is ruined!”

Hearing these comments, I knew something was wrong.

As expected, when I returned to my office, I checked my phone and saw the news about Ding’s father’s corruption. It had been made hot news.

No need to guess. This was another one of Gu Yuanzhou’s schemes.

That bastard, he wasn’t even sparing the dead!

However, the company was in a state of every man for himself. If I didn’t steady them, the situation could spiral out of control.

So, I made a call to Shen Yishu…

At five in the afternoon, I gathered all the staff in the large conference room and held a regular meeting.

In addition to analyzing the current situation for everyone, I also gave them a glimpse of the future. However, despite my fiery speech, the response from the staff was lukewarm.

It wasn’t until Shen Yishu, looking sharp in a suit, walked into the conference room with several big clients that the staff finally perked up.

In the past few months, under my guidance and arrangements, Shen Yishu successfully managed a company.

However, his business was primarily online retail, which involved smaller orders.

Therefore, when he had some large customers or large orders that required production, he had to collaborate with me.

At this moment, the clients he brought with him signed several large contracts, worth billions, on the spot after my persuasion.

Only then did the employees regain their confidence.

After the meeting ended and before Shen Yishu left with his clients, he squeezed my hand tightly.

“Sister Song! I’m so grateful for your guidance. I’ve finally found meaning in my life!”

“Keep going, the best is yet to come!”

“Yes, yes, I’ll work hard!”

Before leaving the company, Shen Yishu hesitated for a while before telling me something.

“Sister Song, um… Ye Mengyan has been released on bail!”

“What?”

“It happened last night. Ye Mengyan called me and said she was released on bail. She also said that Gu Yuanzhou got her a powerful lawyer to argue for her innocence.”

“I see. Thank you, Shen Yishu!”

I was originally somewhat hesitant and undecided, but Shen Yishu’s words at that moment finally made me resolve to act.

I made a trip to call Wenya,

“What’s the name of your reporter friend, Baoling, right? Hasn’t she always wanted to interview me? Ask her to come over, I’m free today.”
