Chapter 197: Chapter 161: Yesterday’s Honey, Today’s Poison_3

But if I let them off just like that, I can’t help but feel a bit frustrated," he thought aloud.

"I really want to see if she’s truly confident or just bluffing!"

"Release the news that Changqing Biological’s cold storage has failed, resulting in huge losses! Also, make a call to Chairman Lu, ask him to meet Gao Yuan and say it’s about discussing a loan, probe her real situation."

Xu Jingsong was attempting to test the waters.

"I have some connection with Mr. Li of Galaxy Securities. I will inquire about what kind of deal Gao Yuan has reached with them.

If they have indeed collaborated, I’ll have to disrupt it no matter what!"

"I understand, Mr. Xu!"

Cui Jizhong nodded and then added cautiously after a moment’s thought.

"Mr. Xu, do you think... behind Gao Yuan, there could be someone secretly supporting her?"

"Hmm?" Xu Jingsong raised his eyebrows.

"Think about it, last time at Cloud Peak Restaurant, our well-thought-out plan was mysteriously thwarted, and we ended up taking a big loss without any clue.

Considering Gao Yuan’s behavior that night, it’s certain that someone had given her advice in secret and she was well-prepared in advance.

Plus, today, she somehow solved the funding issue out of the blue...

If you tell me there isn’t someone pulling the strings in the dark, and all this is just a coincidence, then Gao Yuan’s luck is just too good to be true!"

"Hmm! You make a valid point," Xu Jingsong pondered for a moment and nodded.

"So, who do you think is the person hidden behind Gao Yuan?"

"That... I think their main purpose in supporting Gao Yuan is probably to combat the Xu family... no! More specifically, to target you!

From this perspective, the scope becomes quite broad."

Competitors of Xu Group, people Xu Jingsong had offended, and even those eyeing the position of General Manager of Xu Group... all were suspects!

Cui Jizhong carefully observed Xu Jingsong’s expression surreptitiously, and seeing a look of agreement on his face, he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He hadn’t forgotten that from the last incident, although Huang Mao failed to torture out any results, his name, Cui Jizhong, was still on the list of prime suspects for the leak.

If there wasn’t such a "force" behind Gao Yuan, Cui Jizhong’s days would be difficult.

No matter if there was a mastermind in the shadows, part of Xu Jingsong’s attention would be diverted, and there would be a justifiable reason for his consecutive fails.

See, it isn’t that our side is incompetent, but that the enemy has sought outside help!

"You may go now, I need to think some more," Xu Jingsong said after a long moment of thought, helplessly gesturing with his hand.

"Yes!"

As soon as Cui Jizhong left the office, a voluptuous and seductively dressed secretary walked in with a cup of coffee.

"Mr. Xu, your favorite Blue Mountain."

As she placed the coffee before Xu Jingsong, the secretary didn’t miss the chance to flaunt her immeasurable cleavage.

Xu Jingsong took it all in, a flash of heat in his eyes, but in an instant, his gaze dimmed, and his expression turned somber.

"Leave," he said.

At his command, the secretary’s eyes filled with grievance, and she couldn’t help but pout.

"Mr. Xu! It’s been such a long time since you last came over to tutor me at my place, I’m falling behind in my ’studies’ lately."

As she spoke, she purposely moved closer to Xu Jingsong, coquettishly wrapping her arm around his, letting him deeply feel her turbulent waves.

However, to her surprise, what used to be a foolproof tactic was met with a cold reprimand in her ear.

"I said leave! Didn’t you hear me?"

"Ah!" The secretary was taken aback.

"I said! Leave immediately! Otherwise, you don’t need to come in tomorrow!" Xu Jingsong growled, glaring at her as if he was about to commit murder.

Sugar one day, poison the next.

The indescribable agony and pain, who could understand?

"Wuwuwu~" Seeing the secretary, who was usually the most favored, run out of Xu Jingsong’s office in tears, the other staff members couldn’t help but exchange puzzled glances.

"What’s going on?"

"I don’t know, but recently Mr. Xu seems to be in a bad mood. We should all be careful."

"I guess the novelty has worn off. It looks like it’s time to change secretaries again in the office."

"The joys of the wealthy are simply beyond our understanding..."

It wasn’t until the secretary had dashed out of the office, crying and distressed, that Xu Jingsong finally couldn’t hold back his outburst any longer.

"Crash!" Everything on the desk fell to the floor.

"Damn Gao Yuan! And that damn mastermind!

If I find out who you are~~~~"

...

Meanwhile, in a luxurious villa.

Xu Jingsong’s Uncle Xu Bolin held an anonymous file in his hand, his face showing a hint of indecision.

"Such a good opportunity... should I take action, or should I not?"
