After the tycoon went bankrupt, he was raised by the villainous female supporting character and beca

"Pei Xingzhi, don't be so stubborn!" Lu Yibai hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation. Seeing Pei Xingzhi's bad attitude and harsh words, he gritted his teeth and threatened, "If you don't want Zhuyuan Technology to repeat the mistakes of the Pei Group, then continue to talk to me with that attitude."

“Heh…” Pei Xingzhi sneered disdainfully, “Lu Yibai, go to hell.”

After hurling insults, he promptly hung up the phone.

Lu Yibai was unconvinced and immediately called again. Before Pei Xingzhi could decide whether to answer, the call suddenly ended on its own.

Immediately afterwards, a news article popped up on the phone screen.

—According to insiders, Lu Yibai, president of Lu's Group, colluded with Zhou Limin, founder of Weilan Studio, to maliciously frame Pei's Group.

“An insider…” Pei Xingzhi smiled, “That insider seems to be me.”

"Mr. Pei."

It was getting late. The driver, rubbing his hands which were red from the cold, jogged over and tentatively asked, "Have you finished your call? Should we go home now?"

Pei Xingzhi put away his phone and replied in a light tone, "I'm done. Let's go home."

……

"Boom!"

Lu Yibai raised his hands and slammed them hard on the table.

"What happened? How did those things get leaked?"

His usually aloof and handsome face was now a deep, liver-colored hue from overwhelming rage, and he practically yelled at Zhou Limin over the phone.

Zhou Limin's voice was full of anxiety, and he didn't sound much better than Lu Yibai.

"I don't know either. Only a few of us know about these things. It's impossible that there's a traitor among us, right?"

The moment the word "spy" was uttered, Zhao Siming, who was standing at the door, froze, but then returned to normal.

"A spy?" Lu Yibai gritted his teeth, grinding the two words heavily. "Zhou Limin, where is Fu Yushu?"

Zhou Limin was taken aback, then his voice changed: "Fu Yushu? You're doubting her?"

Lu Yibai narrowed his eyes, a dangerous frost covering his sharp brows: "A few months ago, Fu Yushu came to me with these things and asked for money."

Zhou Limin: "Did you give it to them?"

Lu Yibai: "I gave her 400,000 yuan, and she destroyed these things in front of me."

“…Damn it.” Zhou Limin cursed angrily, “You’ve definitely been tricked by her! If she can secretly keep these things, she can make several backups before destroying them.”

"The news said that this evidence was leaked by an insider. In my opinion, this insider is definitely one of Pei Xingzhi's people."

“The people on Pei Xingzhi’s side…” Lu Yibai frowned, suddenly recalling something Pei Xingzhi had just said on the phone.

"Lu Yibai, stop worrying about Ayuan. Your backyard is about to catch fire."

Lu Yibai was initially puzzled by these words, but upon closer reflection, he suddenly realized that they were a warning from Pei Xingzhi.

“They’re not from Pei Xingzhi’s side.” He clenched his fists tightly, his protruding knuckles turning white from being pressed against the hard tabletop.

"What?" Zhou Limin didn't understand.

Lu Yibai said with certainty, "This kind-hearted insider is not someone close to Pei Xingzhi, but Pei Xingzhi himself."

“…Huh?!” Zhou Limin exclaimed in surprise, “Pei Xingzhi himself? You mean, Pei Xingzhi himself released all this evidence?”

Lu Yibai: "Yes."

Zhou Limin: "How could Pei Xingzhi possibly have these things? How did he find Fu Yushu?"

Lu Yibai closed his eyes, feeling a headache coming on: "I'm afraid the only answer to this question is to ask Fu Yushu himself."

"Zhao Siming".

"I'm here," Zhao Siming replied immediately.

Lu Yibai coldly ordered, "Find Fu Yushu and take her to the old place."

Zhao Siming: "Yes."

He didn't dare to dawdle and immediately turned around and strode out of the office.

Xiao Chen hurriedly walked in, following in his footsteps.

"Mr. Lu, all of Lu Group's official accounts on various platforms have been attacked."

"Let's go for it." Lu Yibai pinched his aching brow. "Anyway, it's not the first time I've been cyberbullied. Once the storm passes, everything will gradually get better."

“This time…this time is different.” Xiao Chen’s face was extremely grim.

"What's different?" Lu Yibai looked at him impatiently.

He sighed several times, his voice trembling as he spoke: "The resentment of those netizens is deeper than ever before. Our accounts on Douyin and Xiaodigua have been reported and banned."

“Some netizens have even filed complaints against our company with the Public Security Bureau and the Procuratorate. The receptionist just called to say that several police cars are parked in front of the company.”

"Who are the people in the police car?" Lu Yibai's face was frighteningly dark.

Xiao Chen: "They're all unfamiliar faces."

"Oh!"

Unable to contain his anger, Lu Yibai slammed his fist on the table, causing the documents on the table to tremble violently.

"How could they all be unfamiliar faces? I've spent so much money and time bribing the police station over the years, how could all the people who come be unfamiliar faces?!"

"Call them right now and tell them to send someone over immediately!"

Xiao Chen fidgeted with his fingers, his face grim, and said, "I've already made the call. They said that because of Qin Song's disappearance, a lot of people from the special task force have come. In addition, with the end of the year approaching and the supervisory team staying in Yuncheng, they really don't dare to make any rash moves."

“…Damn it.” Lu Yibai grabbed a handful of hair in anxiety, and cursed uncontrollably, “A bunch of useless good-for-nothings who only know how to take money, not a single one of them is of any use when it matters!”

Xiao Chen: "President Lu, the end of the year is a critical time for inspections. If we are tricked at this time, those people may use it as leverage to boost our performance."

"I know!" Lu Yibai raised his hand to his forehead, each breath he exhaled was burning hot. "Go contact Director Duan right now and tell him to get out here and figure out a solution for me!"

Xiao Chen: "Yes."

“Zhou Limin.” Lu Yibai picked up his phone, took a few deep breaths to force himself to calm down, and said, “You should contact all the people you can reach right now and try to make this a small matter.”

“Pei Xingzhi is backed by Xie’s Technology now, so he won’t be easy to deal with. And I’m worried he might call the police.”

Zhou Limin: "I understand. I'll contact someone right now. President Lu, don't be too anxious. We have scapegoats. Even if Pei Xingzhi calls the police, we have ways to get out of this."

"Okay." Lu Yibai said in a deep voice, "Go quickly, don't let this matter get too big."

He was about to hang up when a cold male voice came through the receiver.

"Zhou Limin, right? We are from the Yuncheng City Tax Bureau. Someone has filed a formal complaint against your company for tax evasion. Please come with us to cooperate with the investigation."
