Chapter 843: Eight hundred and thirty-eight, when the water recedes the rocks emerge, the mole reveals themselves.

After entering, he surveyed the entire office.

He noticed that other employees were also present, or rather, they shouldn’t be called employees, but the company’s executives.

Since Gu Chen had arrived, all the company’s executives were familiar with him.

At this moment, they were all looking at Gu Chen with curiosity, not understanding why he would suddenly come to the office.

When Ji Pianran saw Gu Chen, her gaze softened considerably, far more gentle than just a moment ago.

"I asked around, and that small workshop is a transformed paper mill; their boss is called Brother Qiang. Does anyone in the company have the name ’Qiang’ or an alias ’Brother Qiang’?"

Gu Chen directly posed this question to Ji Pianran.

Ji Pianran hadn’t expected that Gu Chen would actually manage to investigate this matter within just a day’s time.

This left him feeling incredibly surprised and shocked; he hadn’t expected Gu Chen to be so capable.

So many people in their company had started to investigate this issue, yet they hadn’t unearthed anything.

But Gu Chen, relying solely on his own efforts, had managed to clarify the situation.

"Which executive has the character ’Qiang’ in their name, or perhaps goes by the nickname ’Brother Qiang’?"

This time, Ji Pianran also directly addressed this question to the company’s executives.

However, none of the executives spoke up; instead, they looked at each other and eventually shook their heads.

It was clear they didn’t know how to respond to his question.

As for a nickname with strong societal connotations like ’Brother Qiang’, they truly hadn’t heard of it.

At this point, Gu Chen continued, "I’ve already sent someone to check out that paper mill, and I believe it won’t be long before this matter is completely resolved, and the truth will come to light."

Gu Chen didn’t pressure Ji Pianran to hurry, instead saying to her.

After hearing this, Ji Pianran understood what Gu Chen meant.

"Thank you for your hard work; I really didn’t expect you to actually solve this case."

At this moment, Ji Pianran’s eyes gleamed with delight.

Because Gu Chen had truly given her a great surprise, and if this issue could be resolved, the company could get back on track.

"Don’t mention it, it’s what I should do."

Gu Chen didn’t think he had done anything praise-worthy.

Helping Ji Pianran was, in his eyes, a natural duty for a man, and moreover, he was willing to help Ji Pianran of his own accord.

Ji Pianran was deeply moved at that moment, not knowing what to say.

Just then, Gu Chen continued, "Now that it has come to this, there’s no need to be nervous; I believe it will be resolved very soon."

He remained as composed as ever, as if everything was under his control.

This demeanor also put Ji Pianran at ease.

She felt noticeably more comfortable and at ease at that moment.

Ji Pianran still had a lot of faith in Gu Chen’s ability to handle matters. Since Gu Chen said the problem was already solved, she didn’t need to worry further.

About an hour later, Gu Chen received an update from Old Yuan.

After Old Yuan’s thorough investigation, he finally pinpointed the issue.

"Recently, there indeed was a paper mill that got transformed, but it was into a canning factory."

"But I felt something was off about this canning factory, so I had someone check it out.

It turns out their factory is very strange; they bought a lot of equipment, but none of it is for canning."

On the contrary, everything was related to manufacturing bottled water.

I felt it must have an inseparable connection with that beverage.

So, I conducted a thorough investigation and, in the end, I discovered that a person named Cai Fen was the actual controller of the factory.

This Cai Fen had only this one enterprise to her name, and she did not hold any position in any other company.

Theoretically, this eliminated her from suspicion.

But I looked into it and found out her husband is named Liu Huahu.

This Liu Huahu has a younger brother named Liu Huaqiang, who happens to be a high-level executive in your company."

Underneath layer upon layer of connections, we finally clarified the matter and found out who exactly betrayed Ji Pianran’s company.

After receiving this information, Gu Chen spoke slowly to Ji Pianran, "The problem has now been investigated thoroughly.

There is someone named Liu Huaqiang, I don’t know if you are aware of him.

He holds a high-level position in your company.

All these matters are closely related to him.

Do you understand what I am saying? We can preliminarily conclude that he was the one behind this."

Upon hearing this, Ji Pianran made a decisive decision on the spot and understood everything.

He immediately took out his phone and convened a meeting with all company staff.

And in the company’s meeting room, all the staff had gathered.

Everyone knew about the recent problems in the company, so they all speculated this sudden meeting must be related to the incident.

However, what they didn’t understand was the reason behind this incident.

At this moment, Ji Pianran, facing all the company’s employees, looked very somber.

Looking at the group of employees in the company, for a moment, she seemed unsure of what to say.

After all, these employees were the veterans who had fought alongside the company from the beginning to the present day.

Now that such a conflict had arisen, it nearly caused a rift in the relationships within the company.

Especially during this period, everyone was speculating, as if every person was under suspicion.

At this point, Ji Pianran began to address all the company’s employees formally; she wanted to put an end to this matter.

She could not just watch idly as the situation continued endlessly without resolution.

Then she turned her gaze directly to the leader of one of the sales teams.

"Liu Huaqiang, you should be very clear about the issues the company is facing, right?"

Liu Huaqiang, who was sitting in the corner and suddenly had his name called, became the focus of everyone present in an instant.

Everyone turned their gazes towards him, their looks filled with a trace of surprise.

How could they not understand that being suddenly called out like this was definitely not a good thing—it must mean there was a problem.

A flicker of panic flashed in Liu Huaqiang’s eyes.

He did not expect his name to be called out of the blue, and at the same time, he seemed to have guessed what was coming.

"I’ve checked all your records; from the day you joined the company, we’ve never docked a penny from your salary.

The company has even given you multiple bonuses.

Why would you do something that harms the company’s interests?

You betrayed all the employees, from the top to the bottom, just for your own personal gain."
