Chapter 324: Chapter 325 There Are Only Suspects

I started to feel that I was a little bit impulsive. I thought that I had done nothing wrong, so there was nothing I should be afraid of. But when chief Yang asked me if the reason for my resignation had something to do with Mo Fei, I could only answer vaguely.

If I say it had something to do with Mo Fei, then not only would it make him regard this as my motive, but it would also cause bad public opinion towards Mo Fei; if I say it had nothing to do with Mo Fei, probably no one in the company would believe it. The rumors about the relationship between me, Liusu, and Mo Fei had been spreading in the company for a while now. So everyone believed that the Chairman would not tolerate Mo Fei dating a ‘playboy’ like me.

Acknowledging it or not acknowledging it, it was another question without the correct answer…

Although Chief Yang didn’t express his suspicion directly, from the way he questioned me, everyone could tell what he was thinking. When Zhang Mingjie wanted to snatch Liusu away from me, I used my relationship with Dong Xiaoye to extort money from him. So when Mo Yizhi wanted to separate me and Mo Fei. Why would I not find someone to smash the company to retaliate against him?

This guy even insinuated that Sister Tiger had broken the law with me. It made me so angry that I almost punched him in the face.

Another reason the police suspected me was that I couldn’t even name a suspect. Who exactly smashed the company and why did they leave my name? If this was a setup, then what was the purpose of this setup?

If it was to take revenge on me, why would they want to drag Fengchang and Mo Yizhi into this? Based on this, the police suspected that it was me who did this, and based on this, I also had a suspect…

“Do you think it is Zhang Mingjie?”

While making a pot of tea slowly, Mo Yizhi asked calmly as if the company that had been smashed didn’t belong to him.

At this time, there were only two people in his office.

When Mo Yizhi came to Fengchang with Lin Zhi, he only said, “he wants to resign from Fengchang, and I am still trying to convince him to stay.” After that, I was finally saved from Chief Yang’s interrogation. In terms of why Lin Zhi would come to the company with Mo Yizhi, I didn’t know. All I know was that after Lin Zhi appeared, his team later took over the charge of the scene from the local police.

Lin Zhi also arranged a few plainclothes to protect Chu Yuan and my parents secretly. He felt that the person who did it might be Xu Heng, who still hadn’t been caught. Liusu, Mo Fei, and Dong Xiaoye also had the same concerns and doubts as him.

Although Xu Heng, who was shot by me, did have a reason to do this to retaliate against me, I didn’t think it was he who did it. Of course, this was just a very subjective and unfounded feeling. It was always a good idea to be careful, so I had no objections to the police’s arrangement, but I still repeatedly told them to be more careful and not to be noticed by Chu Yuan. I didn’t want them to disturb my parents’ lives and make them worry about me.

Mo Fei and Liusu wanted to use the opportunity of entertaining Lin Zhi to learn more about my situation from him, but I guess it would just be a futile effort. Lin Zhi was a very experienced policeman. He was an old sly fox. There was no way that those two young women would be able to get anything from his mouth.

Long Shan helped Mo Yizhi to handle the things downstairs instead of Mo Yizhi. But I always felt that she was avoiding me on purpose. When such a big thing happened, when she saw me, she didn’t say a word to me. This was not her usual enthusiastic behavior. In addition, she didn’t look well, so I suspected that she was worried about something.

However, Mo Yizhi’s attitude surprised me the most. I didn’t know whether I should say that he was calm or he was cold-hearted. He did not feel angry or flustered at all after his company was smashed by someone.

This old man always oppressed me with his unpredictable aura. Originally, I thought that it could also be Fengchang’s enemies, and I was implicated by the conflict between Fengchang and its competitors. But now, it seemed like it was me who brought this trouble to Fengchang.

Seeing that I did not speak, Mo Yizhi asked unhurriedly again, “who do you suspect? Is it Zhang Mingjie?”

“Possibly.” I didn’t want to admit that it was me who brought the trouble to Fengchang, so my attitude was a bit vague, but I still told the truth. “In order to pursue Liusu, he often belittles me in front of Liusu. It was he who spread rumors everywhere, saying that I have a relationship with Ms. Mo. I had many conflicts with him. I don’t know who started it, but many people think that it was me who hired someone to splash him with feces last time, not to mention that I have extorted more than two million yuan from him. So it is very likely that it was him who hired someone to do it. After all, after doing this, not only would he be able to get even with me, but he would also let Liusu see what kind of person I truly am, because he knew that Ms. Mo would definitely defend me in front of the whole company. This is a great trick that can kill two birds with one stone…”

“You are wrong, not two birds with one stone, but three birds with one stone.” Mo Yizhi poured three cups of tea and arranged them in a row, as if they were three birds, and said to me with a smile, “This third one is to make you unable to work in Fengchang. In this way, Fengchang will not have the chance to get the cooperation project. Of course, there is another possibility, which is to ruin your reputation and make the other party feel that it is not worth it to offer such a tempting condition for you.”

I never felt that I was worthy of others to offer that kind of condition. God knows why the Third Lady would be interested in me… I asked curiously, “The Zhang family is also part of Fengchang after all, and they would also benefit from the project, right? So why would they do this?”

Mo Yizhi smiled faintly, “because the other party wants you to be the representative of their partnering company, and you are still working in the investment department; so, at the board meeting last Friday, the motion to let Fer’er in charge of the cooperative project was approved by many votes. Do you think this is beneficial or harmful to the Zhang family?”

If Mo Fei succeeded in winning this cooperation plan, then after Mo Yizhi stepped down, Mo Fei would not only own the most shares, but she would also have enough prestige and merit. Her age would no longer be an excuse to hinder her from taking the office. She would become a symbol of the company’s vigor and vitality…

Mo Yizhi smiled without saying a word, his eyes deep in the eye sockets were not only revealing a trace of pride but cunning. I couldn’t help but curse in my heart, ‘wasn’t the day I returned to the company to send my resignation letter last Friday?’ He knew that I was determined to leave, but he still proposed at the board meeting to let Mo Fei in charge of the cooperation plan. Clearly, he wanted to leave a very difficult choice to me.

This old man wanted to use Mo Fei’s situation to force me to stay in the company! If I insisted on resigning, once Fengchang failed to win this plan, Mo Fei would become a scapegoat, and the chairman would also be responsible for making the wrong decision…

This old man was very bold. He even dared to take this kind of uncertain risk. Even if I stayed, there was still a possibility that they might not be able to get this project, right?

I pretended that I didn’t see through Mo Yizhi’s intentions. Although I knew that he wanted me to see through him, I still pretended to be dumb, “if the chairman suspects this is the motive of the Zhang family, then anyone who doesn’t want me to stay in Fengchang is also the suspect?”

“Yes,” Mo Yizhi handed me a cup of tea. I took it with both hands. “But don’t forget that the person who smashed the company also left a message…” He said with a smile.

‘A message? !’ I frowned and thought about what he meant. Mo Yizhi was right. If the person didn’t know the rumors about my relationship with Mo Fei, and Mo Yizhi had indeed fired me for this reason, it would be impossible to leave such a message, but how many of Fengchang’s competitors knew about this?

Mo Yizhi took a sip of his tea, put down the cup, and speculated in a deep voice, “Zhang Mingjie and his father, the Liu family, and the Long family, apart from them, no one else knew that I indeed wanted to fire you last time, because that thing wasn’t made public…”

Zhang Mingjie and Liu Xiaosheng had a good relationship. And I had also talked about leaving Fengchang to Liu Xingyu, so I wasn’t surprised that the Liu family knew about this, but… How did the Long family know about this?

Before I could ask anything, Mo Yizhi continued, “The Long Family has been very successful in the real estate industry. At the moment, they have no intention to expand their business into other industries. After Long Xiaotian died, a lot of shady things he did in the past were dug out by many people. Then there is panic spreading in his company, and their stock price is plummeting. They have so many internal and external troubles to deal with. So, it is unlikely that it was them.”

Although it was an indisputable fact that I had offended the second daughter-in-law of the Long Family, and they had also stabbed me and Dong Xiaoye in the back for this and accused us of secretly working together with Xu Heng, this matter had ended with their apology. But when I heard Mo Yizhi say so, I couldn’t help wondering, since the Long family was not interested in the Third Lady’s project, they had no reason to please me. Then why would they want to apologize to me?

I faintly felt that this may be related to the attitude of the Third Lady…

“Chairman, you mean that it is either the Zhang family or the Liu family that did it?”

“Before the police solve the case, there are only suspects and everyone is innocent, but…” Mo Yizhi changed his tone and said, “it doesn’t matter who hired those gangsters. What’s important is that this incident has already caused bad public opinion. I don’t think anyone would want a company that is often troubled by gangsters as their partner. What do you think?”

I didn’t know if Mo Yizhi was worried about my feelings or if he really didn’t care about what happened. In short, I didn’t see him showing any concerns about the negative impacts that may be caused by this incident. On the contrary, he was still very happy. “What I want to know the most now is your decision, Little Chu, if you give up your resignation and choose to stay, those who deliberately make trouble will not be able to find any excuse to blame you. But if you leave, they may continue to make trouble in your name, and it will be no good for you and for Fengchang…”
