Chapter 589: Chapter 0591: He Will Be Sad

Compared to Chu Ge’s composure, Ge Fan in the next room was not in such a good state of mind.

He returned to the surveillance room, watching Chu Ge on the monitors, slightly squinting his eyes in thought.

From what he observed of Minister Zheng just now, it was clear that he was wavering.

People say Minister Zheng is like a reed swayed by the wind, and that is not wrong at all. Now that Ouyang Die had arrived and added some pressure, his metaphorical scale would naturally tilt towards her.

There was no way Minister Zheng could rely on him to trap Chu Ge now; he would have to think of another plan.

After much contemplation, Ge Fan decided to quietly leave the place.

On the other side, Minister Zheng, having received the orders from Ouyang Die, had no choice but to put on a brave face and go to the waiting room to fetch Chu Ge.

He managed a smile that didn’t reach his eyes as he looked at Chu Ge, who was sitting comfortably in the room, and said, "Mr. Chu, everything has been cleared up, it was all a misunderstanding, you can leave now."

But Chu Ge remained unmoved, sitting there leisurely with his legs crossed. He looked at Minister Zheng and clicked his tongue, saying, "Minister Zheng, was there no way to tamper with my account?"

Minister Zheng was startled, then remembered what he had just discussed with Ge Fan at the door, and his heart skipped a beat—damn it, Chu Ge had overheard them!

Holding back his displeasure, Minister Zheng smiled ingratiatingly at Chu Ge and said, "Mr. Chu, it was a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. How could I possibly falsify your account? You are innocent, and that cannot be faked."

Chu Ge looked at him with disdain and remained seated, unmoved.

Seeing Chu Ge giving him no face, Minister Zheng felt his rage burning intensely inside him, but he couldn’t release it and had to suppress it, making him extremely uncomfortable.

"Mr. Chu, Miss Ouyang and Lady Mu are still waiting for you outside, you should leave quickly."

Eventually, Minister Zheng had no choice but to bring up Ouyang Die.

A trace of surprise flashed through Chu Ge’s eyes—how did Ouyang Die know he was here?

Minister Zheng had mentioned that Ouyang Die and Mu Bingtong were outside; could it be that Mu Bingtong had gone to the Ouyang Family?

Chu Ge felt a flicker of suspicion in his heart, slowly stood up, and walked out.

Minister Zheng saw that Chu Ge had finally moved and took a deep breath as he followed him out of the waiting room.

Upon reaching the main office lobby, Chu Ge immediately spotted Ouyang Die and Mu Bingtong sitting in the waiting area.

At the same time, Mu Bingtong saw him, quickly stood up, and ran to Chu Ge, looking at him worriedly, asking, "Are you alright?"

Chu Ge shook his head, "I’m fine."

Ouyang Die sat there, only feeling a figure swiftly passing by before she could look up, and saw Mu Bingtong running quickly to Chu Ge.

She felt a bit uncomfortable but it was just a slight feeling. She slowly stood up, elegantly walking in her high heels, smiling as she approached and said, "Mr. Chu, what kind of person have you been? To actually be reported."

Chu Ge indifferent glance at Minister Zheng, chuckled lightly, and said, "Maybe, you should ask Minister Zheng about that."

Minister Zheng, already feeling guilty, suddenly got named and felt a clench in his heart, he awkwardly smiled, "Mr. Chu, what are you saying? I only received an anonymous letter, it was just a routine inspection, look how you’re blaming me now." fre.eweb(n)ovel\.c om

Chu Ge smiled and did not answer.

Ouyang Die lightly scoffed on the side, saying in a mocking tone, "Minister Zheng, no matter what kind of anonymous letter you received, without any evidence, you can’t just bring someone in, can you?"

Minister Zheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, it was a negligence on my part."

Chu Ge did not care about Minister Zheng arresting him, but he did care about how Minister Zheng treated Mu Bingtong. He clearly remembered Minister Zheng threatening Mu Bingtong.

"Miss Ouyang, I think Minister Zheng is also suspected of illegal activities, which should be thoroughly investigated."

Chu Ge said lightly, "It’s just that I don’t really understand the reporting procedures."

Ouyang Die understood from his words that Chu Ge was determined to hold Minister Zheng accountable. She chuckled lightly, "I understand, I’ll take care of it."

Minister Zheng’s mind went blank because of the conversation between Chu Ge and Ouyang Die. He looked at Chu Ge nervously, his gaze carrying a hint of resistance.

If he were reported, it would be a definite investigation. He wouldn’t only lose his position as Minister but might also face the risk of imprisonment.

"Mr. Chu, Miss Ouyang, it’s my fault. I was momentarily blinded by ghosts, I listened to the slanders of a villain temporarily; it’s all my fault. I beg Mr. Chu and Miss Ouyang to be magnanimous and not stoop to my level."

Minister Zheng was almost in tears, his heart beating wildly, fearing that Ouyang Die might actually report him.

However, Chu Ge’s intention was clear; such scum had to be punished. He nodded slightly towards Ouyang Die and said, "Then I’ll leave this matter to Miss Ouyang."

After speaking, he prepared to leave.

Ouyang Die stayed behind as she still had to deal with Minister Zheng.

Standing there, she watched as Chu Ge and Mu Bingtong walked away, feeling an uncomfortable sensation rising again in her heart.

Mu Bingtong was aloof, but her aloofness was just armor she wore as a woman navigating the professional world. When she had someone to rely on, she would show the softest side of a woman.

And Mu Bingtong was just like that now.

Ouyang Die, in contrast, grew up with a silver spoon, never knowing what difficulty and fear were; only when her family faced danger did she feel panicked and powerless.

But it was just panic, never showing the vulnerable side of a woman.

Once Chu Ge and Mu Bingtong left, the small smile on Ouyang Die’s face instantly tightened. She turned to look at Minister Zheng with a cold expression.

Minister Zheng felt very guilty; he stood in front of Ouyang Die with his head down, like a child who had done something wrong.

"I remember, you were a soldier brought out by my grandfather, weren’t you?"

Ouyang Die asked coldly.

Minister Zheng looked up at her briefly, then nodded with shame, "Yes."

"It seems my grandfather made a mistake too." Ouyang Die snorted coldly, "The reason I stayed behind alone is to talk to you. Mr. Chu is someone even my grandfather respects, not someone you can afford to provoke. Since he spoke up, don’t blame me for being ruthless."

Ouyang Die seemed to have thought of something else and added, "This was your fault from the beginning, so don’t trouble my grandfather any further. After all, he’s old, and if he learns that he was mistaken about someone in his youth, it will break his heart."
