The paranoid boss always tries to trick me

As soon as the people from the Industry and Commerce Bureau left, the media in the venue immediately surrounded them, and the cameras with long guns and short guns almost poked Gu Wanran's face.

"Miss Gu, please explain what happened just now. Do the spices developed by Gu's really contain harmful substances?"

"Do the spices and other products produced by Gu's before also contain harmful substances?"

The sharper questions made Gu Wanran's mind buzzing. Now she has no mind to deal with these reporters, and only thinks about the quality inspector's words.

"...Have you offended anyone?"

When doing things in the mall, it is inevitable to have enemies, but Gu Wanran would never have imagined that the Gu family would be put to death like this.

This press conference, which was originally expected to be high, ended in a mess.

There were too many media at the scene. On the second day, this scandal dominated all the headlines. In just a few days, Gu's stock price plummeted all the way. Naturally, there was no way to proceed with the cooperation that was originally planned to be signed. Instead, there was a large amount of arrears, which almost emptied all of Gu's working capital, and the fixed shares were all frozen due to the investigation by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau.

What stood in front of Gu Wanran was almost a dead end with nowhere to go.

Compared to these, Gu Wanran was more worried about his father who was taken away by the police.

She knew that this product, which was detected with harmful substances, was developed by herself. If she really wanted to investigate, it should be herself. Her father took the blame for herself to protect herself.

The tree fell and the monkeys scattered, the wall fell and everyone pushed, Gu Wanran worked up and down for several days, but he couldn't see his father.

If this continues, the only thing in front of Gu's will be bankruptcy and being bought by someone.

The Gu family is the painstaking effort of three generations of their parents, and Gu Wanran does not want this property to be destroyed in his own hands no matter what.

These days, she has been looking for people everywhere to try to raise funds for cooperation, but her father's business friends in the past either turned her away or treated her coldly, making it clear that they didn't want to get involved in this mess.

Gu Wanran was standing in front of Gu's door. Because of this incident, Gu's family had already been blocked. She sighed deeply, but the phone rang suddenly.

is a text message.

"If you want to save Gu's, come to Mingyuan Group."

Mingyuan Group?

Gu Wanran has heard of this company, and it is a cutting-edge company that has developed in recent years. It seems that there is a considerable force behind it, and it has been going smoothly.

But, what does this text message mean?
In this situation, Gu Wanran couldn't afford to think too much, she was desperate now, looking at this text message, she could only be treated as a dead horse doctor.

She took a taxi and went directly to the address stated in the text message.

Mingyuan Group is located in the most prosperous business district in Jiangcheng, and the decoration style is very unique and gorgeous, but now Gu Wanran can't think of admiring it, so he strode in.

The receptionist at the front desk obviously knew in advance that Gu Wanran would come, she didn't show any surprise, but said directly: "Is it Miss Gu, Mr. Jiang is waiting for you in the office on the top floor."

President Jiang?
Gu Wanran was startled. On the way here, she checked the information about Mingyuan Group, but found nothing.

The executive president of Mingyuan Group has never appeared publicly in any media, nor has he accepted any interviews. Others only know that his surname is Jiang, and if there are more, there will be nothing.

Under the guidance of the assistant, Gu Wanran found the office. She raised her hand and knocked on the door, and said, "I'm Gu Wanran."

"Come in."

An elegant and deep voice came from the office, and Gu Wanran's raised hand froze in the air.

This voice...was so familiar, it overlapped perfectly with the voice in my memory, not even the slightest change in the voice, but the tone was a little more cold.

Gu Wanran tried her best to restrain her gaffe. She pushed open the door of the office, and immediately saw the back figure standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking down at the downstairs.

At that moment, Gu Wanran heard his heart beating heavily in his chest.

Could it be him...

She tried her best to suppress it, but there was still some obvious trembling in her voice: "Jiang...President?"

The tall and slender man turned around slowly. He was dressed in a hand-made high-end suit, which made his temperament cold and noble. It was still the handsome eyebrows and eyes that Gu Wanran was familiar with, but the indifferent expression she was not familiar with.

"You are...Xu Jiachen..."

Gu Wanran's tears fell uncontrollably, she almost subconsciously took a step forward, wanting to take a closer look at the man's face.

In her dreams, she had described that person's facial features countless times, and that face had been deeply embedded in Gu Wanran's bones, making it impossible for her to forget it in her life.

"What is Miss Gu talking about?"

The sudden indifferent male voice interrupted Gu Wanran, and she opened her eyes slightly in disbelief.

No, Xu Jiachen would never speak to her in this tone.

When Xu Jiachen faced her, he was always gentle and would never speak to her in such a tone. However, although the man in front of him looked exactly the same as Xu Jiachen, his impression was very different.

She murmured to herself: "No, you are not Xu Jiachen."

Jiang Yuechen's eyes fell on her coldly, without any emotion: "This time I invite Miss Gu to talk about the acquisition of Gu's."

Gu Wanran was shocked by the man's cold words, and immediately raised her head: "Impossible! I won't sell Gu's!"

The corners of Jiang Yuechen's lips raised slightly, evoking a mocking arc: "It's up to you, Miss Gu."

He picked up the intercom on his desk and dialed: "Go and deliver the contract I prepared to my office."

Not long after, there was a knock on the door of the office, and a person who looked like a secretary came in with a contract, and that person was Secretary Liu who accused Gu Wanran of having a product problem at the meeting earlier!
In the blink of an eye, Gu Wanran understood everything!
Her face turned pale, and she asked tremblingly, "You were the one who designed Gu's behind your back and falsely accused me of containing harmful substances in the new products I developed. You also arranged for the people from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau..."

Jiang Yuechen walked and sat down on the large leather sofa, with a half-smile, but there was an icy coldness in his eyes, and he didn't deny it.

Secretary Liu withdrew after delivering the documents, and there were only her and Jiang Yuechen in the spacious office.

The strong sense of oppression on the man's body made Gu Wanran's breathing a little stagnant. She gritted her teeth and asked, "That night...you were the one at the hotel, wasn't it?"

Jiang Yuechen rested his head on one hand, his eyes were cold, "Miss Gu is so enthusiastic, how can I refuse?"

Sure enough it was him.

The humiliating words made Gu Wanran feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Her eyelashes trembled violently, and it took several seconds before she said, "Why...why are you targeting the Gu family?"

Gu Wanran didn't believe it was a coincidence that Jiang Yuechen appeared in the hotel that night. She clearly saw the clear hatred welling up in Jiang Yuechen's eyes when she asked this sentence.

"why?"

Jiang Yuechen repeated Gu Wanran's words, and gently evoked a smile, but the smile was cold and full of mockery: "I just want your life to be worse than death, this is what your Gu family owed me back then. "

Gu Wanran was a little at a loss, she asked: "What's going on?"

Jiang Yuechen stopped answering, but just looked at her sarcastically: "If Ms. Gu doesn't sign this purchase contract, I'm afraid the consequences are not something you can afford."

The contract with white characters on a black background was extremely glaring in Gu Wanran's eyes. She bit her lip hard, and suddenly asked, "Does Mr. Jiang have twin brothers?"

Probably because she was really clueless about this question, Jiang Yuechen showed just the right doubts, and then shook his head: "No."

Sure enough, I thought too much...

She lowered her head and stared at the contract, her nails pricked the palm of her hand, bringing out a little red blood, after a long while, Gu Wanran raised her head: "Boss Jiang... I can't sign this contract, please, Gu Shi has been my father's hard work for so many years, if you have any dissatisfaction with Gu Shi, you can come to me... Please let my father go..."

It was extremely difficult for Gu Wanran to say a word.

"You?" Jiang Yuechen looked at her casually, "Miss Gu, you are also in business, you don't want to pay anything and want me to let Gu Shi go, are you awake?"

An embarrassing sense of humiliation permeated Gu Wanran's heart. Jiang Yuechen's targeting of Gu's this time, from buying Secretary Liu to his father being taken away by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, was all carefully planned. However, Gu Wanran didn't understand that Jiang Yuechen was right Where does Gu's hatred come from, and must Gu be killed?

Gu Wanran's knees fell to the ground slowly, she gave up the last trace of her dignity, and knelt down in front of Jiang Yuechen.

"Please... as long as you can let my father go, you can ask me to do anything..."

"You can do anything..." Jiang Yuechen repeated Gu Wanran's words, his eyes fell on Gu Wanran unscrupulously, and suddenly said, "Miss Gu's performance that night was not bad."

A thin room card was thrown down on Gu Wanran's face by Jiang Yuechen, and the sharp edge of the room card left a bloodstain on the side of Gu Wanran's face and fell to the ground.

Jiang Yuechen walked up to Gu Wanran, clasped her chin with his knuckle fingers and forcibly lifted it up: "If you want me to let your father go, it depends on your performance tonight."

The meaning in the words is self-evident, Gu Wanran's lower lip turned white from being bitten, but this is the only way in front of her, and she has no right to refuse.

Gu Wanran walked out of Mingyuan Building, the sun outside was scorching and warm, but Gu Wanran only felt cold all over.

She held the room card tightly in her hand, which made her palm ache. Gu Wanran seemed to be unable to feel it. She walked out to a place where she couldn't see the Mingyuan Group, and then she squatted down as if she lost her strength. Big tears fell down.

She told herself over and over again in her heart that she could bear any kind of humiliation for her father and Gu Shi, but when she faced that face that was exactly the same as Xu Jiachen's, she still couldn't help feeling the pain.

Is it possible that there are people who look the same in the world?

Passers-by's surprised eyes fell on her, mixed with whispers, Gu Wanran gritted her teeth and stood up, wiping away her tears.
