Chapter 977 - 977 981 Baby Youre So Beautiful

Chapter 977: Chapter 981: Baby, You’re So Beautiful! Chapter 977: Chapter 981: Baby, You’re So Beautiful! “Because of a man,” Gu Junzhu took a sip of juice, a sneer curving her lips: “It just so happened that her childhood friend was the No. 1 domestic beauty brand. He coveted the secret formula in Han Zuo’s hands, and he foresaw that if he let Han Zuo develop further, Han Zuo would someday surpass him and become the new No. 1 of domestic beauty brands. So, he joined forces with that woman and stole Han Zuo’s secret formula, framed Han Zuo, destroyed Han Zuo’s company, and sent Han Zuo to prison. Then he could rest easy.”

“Despicable!” Ye Xingbei cursed indignantly, “What happened afterward?”

“Afterward, that man, fearing Han Zuo would make a comeback, bribed the inmates in Han Zuo’s cell to take care of Han Zuo,” Gu Junzhu said: “Han Zuo had a few friends. After Han Zuo got into trouble, they came together to help him out. Han Zuo’s friends, just like Han Zuo, were newcomers in the business world and couldn’t compete with that man. The Gu Group owns a headhunting company, and they found someone from the Gu Group’s headhunters.”

“Headhunting company?” Ye Xingbei asked, “A headhunting company is for digging up talents, right?”

“Right,” Gu Junzhu nodded: “They found the Gu Group’s headhunting company and said if the Gu Group could save Han Zuo, once released from prison, Han Zuo would be willing to serve the Gu Group.”

Thinking back to the first time she saw Han Zuo’s name, Gu Junzhu hooked up the corner of her mouth: “I guess Han Zuo and I were fated. When the headhunting company received the distress letter from Han Zuo’s friends, I had just returned from my military service and took over the Gu Group. While inspecting the various branches, I saw Han Zuo’s story and took an interest. After sending someone to investigate and confirming it was true, I saved him.”

Gu Junzhu raised her hand and pointed to the corner of her eye: “However, it’s a pity that by the time I saved him, he had already been injured here. Fortunately, his friends took action quickly, or else Han Zuo would no longer be in this world.”

“What about later?” Ye Xingbei asked, “What happened to the beauty brand owner who framed Han Zuo and that woman who had been supported by Han Zuo?”

“The small boss,” Gu Junzhu shrugged her shoulders, saying nonchalantly: “Of course, I had them both packed off to prison. The man was charged with stealing corporate secrets, framing, and hiring a hitman. With several crimes combined, he was sentenced to life imprisonment. The woman stole Han Zuo’s secret formula but didn’t participate in anything else, so she was only sentenced to two years. Counting the time, she should be out by now.”

Ye Xingbei exhaled with relief and said gratefully, “Han Zuo was lucky to have met you, or else he would’ve been in a real mess.”

Gu Junzhu chuckled, “And he was lucky to have a few true friends, or else the grass on his grave might be sky-high by now.”

“Yeah,” Ye Xingbei nodded, “True friends are rare. To have even one in a lifetime is a great fortune.”

She thought of Yian Jingxue.

She believed that if she ever got into trouble, Yian Jingxue would definitely run around and spare no expense to rescue her.

Thinking of Yian Jingxue, the anger that had risen in her because of that despicable couple softened considerably.

At this moment, the sun was setting.

The afterglow of the setting sun scattered a thin layer of light on her flawless face, making her appear unearthly beautiful.

Gu Junzhu wrapped his arms around her waist, his fingertips gently brushing her cheek, his eyes locked onto her stunning features, his smile tinged with tenderness, as if speaking to the water: “Baby, you’re so beautiful!”

Ye Xingbei’s legs turned weak from his tender and focused gaze, her cheeks buring hot, but she couldn’t bear to look away from his eyes. Gazing back at him, she sincerely complimented, “You’re very handsome too, just like Xiao Shu said, the most handsome in the world!”
