Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge

But in their hearts, they secretly thought that this whole thing was caused by Gu Zhaoting himself. If he hadn't cheated on his wife and hadn't had any illegitimate children, how could he have caused such a scandal and how could it have affected the Gu family?

As Gu Zhaoting's secretaries, they all knew Ye Yunyi. They had witnessed the little flirtatious affair between their boss Gu and Secretary Ye, and they were perfectly clear about the truth of the matter.

To be fair, the wife was definitely the one who suffered injustice.

Of course, now that they are divorced, the wife is no longer the wife. As Gu Zhaoting's secretaries, no matter what they think in their hearts, they have to stand on the side of the Gu family on the surface.

Gu Zhaoting paced around the office twice with his hands on his hips, then waved his hand impatiently: "Alright, you can all go out now and continue the investigation."

"Yes."

The group responded and left under Secretary Gao's guidance.

Gu Zhaoting was alone in his office, carefully recalling the words his father had said.

Who did he offend?

Could it be that someone with such abilities is also at odds with him...?

A name instantly popped into Gu Zhaoting's mind.

Cheng Yin.

Gu Zhaoting recalled Cheng Yin's inexplicable appearance at his mother's birthday banquet, which further confirmed his suspicions.

Before he could think any further, his phone rang again; it was a call from one of Gu's shareholders.

Because of Gu Zhaoting's personal actions, which have had such a significant impact on the Gu Group, how could the shareholders not have grievances?

Gu Zhaoting answered the phone, frowning as he dealt with the shareholders, but at that moment, Secretary Gao, who had just left, suddenly pushed the door open again, in such a hurry that she didn't even knock.

"Mr. Gu!"

A bad feeling suddenly washed over Gu Zhaoting. He put down the phone and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Do you remember? We had an accident on that piece of land in the west of the city, and two workers died. It was covered up, but now this has been exposed!"

"what?!"

"Not only that, but another thing has come to light: the buildings we constructed last year were found to have used substandard materials and were substandard, posing a threat to people's lives and property. This may involve embezzlement and tax evasion..."

How could such a large corporation be completely clean and without any problems? Especially in the construction industry, accidents involving workers' lives are common. As long as they are not exposed, nothing will happen.

But now that these things have been exposed, it's far more serious than the previous sex scandals and high-society scandals. It's highly likely that an investigation will be launched, and some people may even be arrested.

Normally, they could try to suppress the issue, but the current situation is special. Because of Gu Zhaoting's matter, the Gu Group is in the eye of the storm, and it is impossible for them not to attract attention.

Gu Zhaoting knew this was a big problem. His blood boiled, and he swept the documents off the table. Then, with a dark face, he left the office without saying a word.

"Mr. Gu! Mr. Gu! Where are you going?"

Only Secretary Gao was calling him from behind, wondering why he wasn't thinking about how to handle the situation at this crucial time, but instead went out without even a word of explanation.

Gu Zhaoting went to find Cheng Yin.

Although there is no evidence, there is no need for evidence.

Cheng Yin was drinking with some friends at the club when Gu Zhaoting suddenly kicked open the door and barged in, staring intently at Cheng Yin.

Cheng Yin turned around, glanced at him, then casually took a sip of his wine, acting as if nothing had happened.

Instead, Qin Feng, who was present, stood up: "Zhao Ting? What brings you here?"

Qin Feng knew that Gu Zhaoting was in a lot of trouble lately and would never have time, so they didn't invite him to their drinking party.

Gu Zhaoting arrived uninvited and with an aggressive demeanor, which puzzled everyone else present.

Qin Feng chuckled twice more: "You've come at the perfect time, sit down and have a drink with me."

Gu Zhaoting didn't respond, and didn't even glance at Qin Feng before walking straight towards Cheng Yin.

"Cheng Yin!"

Cheng Yin then slowly put down his wine glass and stood up.

"What's up?"

Gu Zhaoting grabbed Cheng Yin by the collar: "You did all of these things, didn't you?"

A slight smile played on Cheng Yin's lips as he glanced down at his collar, which was being grabbed: "What do you mean by this?"

"I ask you, did you do these things?"

"what's up?"

"Stop playing dumb!"

As Gu Zhaoting spoke, he raised his fist, intending to attack Cheng Yin.

Seeing that things were getting out of hand, Qin Feng and the others rushed over to break up the fight, and they pulled Gu Zhaoting back from attacking.

"Hey, hey, hey! Zhaoting, let's talk this out, let's talk this out, don't resort to violence."

"Yes, we're all friends..."

While Gu Zhaoting was being restrained by the others, Cheng Yin grabbed Gu Zhaoting's wrist and easily shook him off.

Gu Zhaoting took a step back.

The two stood facing each other, a step apart.

The difference was that Gu Zhaoting's face was so gloomy it was almost dripping with water, while Cheng Yin had a relaxed demeanor and an undisguised smile on his face.

In Gu Zhaoting's view, Cheng Yin was deliberately provoking him.

Several friends stood between the two men, looking left and right, unsure of whose side to take, and could only offer words of reconciliation.

Cheng Yin lowered his head and straightened his slightly wrinkled collar. He looked up again before speaking.

"So what if I did it?"

Upon hearing this, the others exchanged shocked glances.

Gu Zhaoting was not surprised at all.

"How about it? I'll tell you to stop!"

"Why should I stop?" Cheng Yin retorted.

He seemed to have heard a joke: "Gu Zhaoting, what kind of wishful thinking are you talking about? If you were me, and you encountered such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, would you show me mercy?"

Of course not.

Gu Zhaoting's fists clenched so tightly they cracked: "If you don't stop, don't blame me for being impolite."

"I didn't ask you to be polite. You can bring whatever tricks you have on me."

"Cheng Yin, do you think I don't have any dirt on you?"

"Then go ahead and use it," Cheng Yin said indifferently.

"Okay, you wait."

"I'll see."

The two of them had a bad relationship to begin with, but they maintained a facade of harmony. Now, they've completely broken off relations.

At that moment, Gu Zhaoting's phone rang again.

He pushed aside the people who were blocking him and took out his phone to answer the call.

"Mr. Gu, something terrible has happened! People from the tax bureau and the police have come to the company and want to see you. Please come back quickly!"

Secretary Gao's flustered voice rang out, exceptionally clear in the quiet private room.

Cheng Yin laughed out loud without restraint: "President Gu, you must be very busy. Why don't you hurry up and deal with it? Don't keep people waiting."

Gu Zhaoting hung up the phone and glanced at Cheng Yin.

He said nothing, turned around and walked out.
