The leader of the cultivation alliance has a crush on me.

Chapter 57 Let's see how you get out of this.

Gu Qing's voice was disappointed and tinged with tears: "I heard him talking to someone on the phone with my own ears. I was going to tell Song Ke that he knocked me unconscious."

Chu Tiancheng said calmly, "I know. Just avoid him and be careful."

After hanging up the phone, Chu Tiancheng was silent for two seconds, then looked at the cigarette that was half-burned between his fingers, and flicked his fingers away.

Chu Tiancheng originally thought it would be difficult to contact He Yunming, but to his surprise, he received a call from He Yunming the next day.

He sounded perfectly normal on the phone, and greeted her politely, "President Chu?"

Chu Tiancheng felt slightly relieved when He Yunming contacted him: "He Yunming, I won't beat around the bush with you. Where are you? Let's have an open and honest talk."

He Yunming gave a cold laugh: "President Chu, if you were truly sincere about talking, things wouldn't have come to this."

"To tell you the truth, I never intended to let you go from the moment I came back."

"After all, with you in the Chu family, it won't be so easy to take down Zhou Chu."

Chu Tiancheng's face darkened as he asked, "Where is Keke?"

He Yunming chuckled softly, "So what if I am?"

"President Chu, I'm not as inhuman as Zhou Chu, who would stoop so low as to lay a hand on a woman. I'll settle things with him about He Wen sooner or later."

Thinking of He Wen's current situation, He Yunming's voice unconsciously became somewhat angry.

"President Chu, rest assured, I have no designs on anything belonging to your Chu family. I trust your abilities, President Chu. I want to see the Chu family go bankrupt within a week."

"Of course, if you don't care that much about Song Ke, then just pretend I didn't say anything."

"However, let me remind you, although I would never lay a hand on a woman, I do have some feelings for Song Ke. Within a week, either I hear news of the Chu family's bankruptcy, or I invite President Chu to my wedding with Song Ke."

"What does Mr. Chu think?"

Chu Tiancheng felt a little relieved knowing that He Yunming wouldn't harm Song Ke, but he still couldn't completely trust He Yunming, as he didn't know if He Yunming might suddenly go crazy.

I had originally planned to have a proper talk with He Yunming and apologize, but now it seems unnecessary.

He had no intention of showing favoritism towards Zhou Chu, who was reaping the consequences of his own actions, but Song Ke was implicated because of him. Thinking of this, he felt a pang of guilt and self-reproach.

Without much thought, he immediately agreed: "I agree."

"But I also warn you, if anything happens to Song Ke, I won't let you off the hook."

He Yunming said in a nonchalant tone, "What are you saying, President Chu? I'm just a law-abiding citizen."

"As for Zhou Chu, Mr. Chu, don't blame me for being ruthless. What he did deserves a few years in prison. I'm just curious what your aunt will do when she finds out."

Chu Tiancheng frowned, didn't listen to him anymore, and hung up the phone.

He sat there pondering for a while before calling Fang Cheng over and telling him about He Yunming.

Fang Cheng was also full of surprise: "Has he gone mad?"

"You dare to make such a request?"

Chu Tiancheng looked troubled and analyzed slowly, "He may have thought of starting with our company before. Do you remember the projects that were suddenly disrupted before? Most of them were probably done by him."

"He probably wanted to slowly and quietly destroy the Chu family, but he didn't expect that Zhou Chu, that idiot, would make the first move."

"By the way, Zhou Chu doesn't need to be bailed out anymore. You can take him to the police station yourself tomorrow. There's no need to bring a lawyer."

Fang Cheng was surprised: "President Chu, you're not going to take care of him anymore?"

Zhou Chu's mother would definitely cause a huge scene at the company.

"Do you think I still have the energy to deal with him? He deserves to suffer the consequences for making such a big fuss this time."

Assistant Fang added, "Young Master Zhou Chu said that he already knows that He Yunming was responsible for his previous incident, which is why he wants to take revenge."

"To be honest, they are brothers, so it's really ugly that things have turned out like this."

Chu Tiancheng glanced at Assistant Fang and said, "Two things. Make some noise at the company, at least let He Yunming know that we are not inactive."

"Also, he just returned to Yuncheng, and there aren't many places where he can hide. You should arrange for someone to confirm Song Ke's location for me first."

Assistant Fang nodded in agreement, and within two days, the news spread not only throughout Yuncheng, but even the Chu family summoned Chu Tiancheng back.

"Tell me, why has the company been having one problem after another lately? You've never been so careless in your work before. What's the real story? Tell us so we can have some idea," said Old Master Chu.

Zhou Chu's mother, however, questioned him with a sarcastic tone: "Tiancheng, I've said it before, the family company is so big, no matter how capable you are, you can't manage it all. Even if you have helpers, they are still outsiders, and they can't be as trustworthy as family."

“Although Zhou Chu is a bit playful, he is capable. If you give him a chance to practice, he is not incapable of achieving anything.”

Grandma gave her a sidelong glance: "I say, Qiuling, you may speak well, but doing things is a different matter. Tiancheng did give Zhou Chu a chance to show his skills before, but what was the result? He lost money and Tiancheng had to clean up his mess."

“I know what you’re thinking. You think our family is biased. But think about it: if I had treated everyone equally, you might be in some man’s pocket by now.”

"Look, this time it's all because of the mess you made, and you still have the nerve to criticize Tiancheng."

Chu Qiuling looked dissatisfied and slammed her hand on the table: "Mom, I don't like what you're saying. What do you mean my Zhou Chu is no good? Who knows if some people are all smiles on the surface but stab you in the back?"

"Don't you know? Zhou Chu has already had Chu Tiancheng send him to the police station. You all need to explain yourselves."

Then, in a questioning tone, she turned to her brother and sister-in-law and said, "Brother and sister-in-law, tell me, is this how things are done? That's Chu Tiancheng's own cousin. Not only did he send him to the police station, but he didn't even help him find a lawyer. Isn't he deliberately trying to kill my Zhou Chu?"

Chu Tiancheng watched his aunt quietly as she poured out her grievances, turning black into white. He wanted to see what kind of nonsense she could come up with.

"You be the judge, is this how things are done? I think he's just afraid Zhou Chu will take his inheritance."

Mr. Chu calmly said, "Qiuling, you can eat whatever you want, but don't say whatever you want. We all know what's going on with Tiancheng."

"Tiancheng, please explain what happened these past two days. Your family needs to know the general outline."

Chu Tiancheng nodded and explained his plan, but he didn't mention that it was for Song Ke, fearing that his family might have some objections to Song.

After listening, Chu's father looked at Chu Qiuling with disappointment in his eyes: "Qiuling, is this the man you insisted on marrying back then?"

"Now that things have come to this, let's see how you clean this up."

After saying that, he added, "As for Zhou Chu, he needs to be disciplined. If you interfere too much, don't go out and say you're a member of the Chu family."
