Bang!
The office door was kicked open, giving a sense of ancient signals being given and assassins being positioned.
Those who barged into the office were several people in security uniforms, appearing to be Liu Wenyao's subordinates. Their first action was to whip out their phones and start snapping pictures.
Chen Jinzhao sneered, taking the opportunity to pinch her, causing the rather attractive female employee to flush with shame.
You said I was molesting you?
Then I'll molest you and show you, what can you do to me?
The female employee tried to break free from Chen Jinzhao's grip but found his strength immense, almost unable to shake him off. She clutched her chest, mentally cursing Chen Jinzhao for his shamelessness and his forceful grip!
This enraged her, and she pointed at Chen Jinzhao, yelling, "He molested me!!"
"Hurry up and arrest him, then send him to the police station!"
"Let him go to jail!!"
Seeing that the situation was ripe, the security guards menacingly approached Chen Jinzhao, their voices laced with sarcasm, "Chen Jinzhao, what's your deal? Do you know this is illegal? Even if you're a team captain, you can't do such a heartless thing."
"You'll come with us to the police station and explain everything to the officers."
Seeing that Chen Jinzhao remained unmoved, the men were about to make a move.
Chen Jinzhao let out a soft, dismissive word.
"Scram!"
That single word stunned the four security guards.
They clearly heard a chilling coldness mixed with Chen Jinzhao's tone, almost piercing their eardrums.
Even the female employee was terrified, her face pale with fear.
At this moment.
Employees from the adjacent conference room also rushed over. Seeing this, the female employee began to play the victim, pointing at Chen Jinzhao and crying, "Wuwuwu, this security guard took advantage of the office being empty to molest me. If you hadn't arrived in time, I would have already been..."
A wave of shock rippled through the crowd!
How could such a scandal happen in a conglomerate worth billions?
Most employees pointed fingers at Chen Jinzhao, vowing to hand him over to the police.
Seeing the opportune moment, the four security guards moved to apprehend Chen Jinzhao.
Chen Jinzhao frowned, shoving the four of them aside, nearly sending them sprawling face-first.
The crowd instinctively took a few steps back, afraid of attracting the attention of this "villain."
"Make way, everyone, President Su is here!" a shout announced.
Not long after.
Su Jinghui and Liu Wenyao appeared at the forefront of the crowd. They glanced at Chen Jinzhao, then at Luo Xiaoli, whose clothes were in disarray. "What's going on? You're saying someone molested you?"
Luo Xiaoli was the female employee who had just cried out about being molested.
She wept profusely, tears streaming down her face, and weakly pointed at Chen Jinzhao. "It was him. He took advantage of the fact that I was the only woman in the office, pretending to carry a computer to touch me inappropriately. At first, I tolerated it, but he became more and more aggressive, wanting to... in the office..."
"Wuwuwu!"
"I can't go on living, I'd rather die!"
Su Jinghui remained silent.
It was Liu Wenyao, his sycophantic lackey, who scowled and berated Chen Jinzhao, "Chen Jinzhao, how can you be such a wretch? I truly misjudged you, I shouldn't have sent you to the sixteenth floor to move computers. If you have any shred of decency left, obediently come with us to the police station and explain the whole situation."
"What happened?" Yu Mengzhi arrived, having heard the commotion.
When she saw Chen Jinzhao was involved, she appeared quite surprised.
Liu Wenyao took the phones from the four security guards and brought up the photos from the scene, asking Yu Mengzhi to review them one by one.
Yu Mengzhi's expression darkened.
Chen Jinzhao stared into Yu Mengzhi's eyes. Strangely, there was no anger in them.
Instead, it was disappointment?
"Chen Jinzhao, aren't you going to explain?" Yu Mengzhi asked, her tone chilling.
Chen Jinzhao shook his head, saying nothing more.
Su Jinghui chuckled inwardly.
Little guy!
Still want to compete with him?
From beginning to end, this was all a setup by Su Jinghui, designed solely to ruin Chen Jinzhao's reputation.
This plan seemed to have been a complete success.
Su Jinghui maintained a grave expression, snatching Liu Wenyao's phone. He said to Luo Xiaoli, "You're talking nonsense. Chen Jinzhao is President Yu's boyfriend, so why would he be interested in you? Look in the mirror, do you think you can compare to President Yu in any way?"
Luo Xiaoli cried even harder, her sorrow and hurt palpable.
It had to be said.
This woman's acting skills were superb; she could be a supporting actress in a drama.
"Crying?"
"What are you crying about?!" Su Jinghui roared.
He then addressed the onlookers, "Everyone, stop watching. This is just a misunderstanding. Chen Jinzhao did not molest Luo Xiaoli; Luo Xiaoli accidentally put herself in this situation!"
"Please do not believe or spread rumors."
"I also hope Luo Xiaoli stops deceiving everyone. If she continues to act recklessly, I reserve the right to dismiss her."
These words ignited the anger of the crowd.
Seeing the angry faces of the employees, Su Jinghui felt smug again. This was the second phase of his plan—to diminish Yu Mengzhi's prestige within the group, making the employees believe she was biased towards evil, thus causing them to become disaffected.
Next.
He just needed to hire someone to write a "long post" online, exposing the "evil deeds" within Gou Chen, and Yu Mengzhi would inevitably become the target of public criticism.
At that point, Gou Chen would likely have to find someone else to take the helm.
Su Jinghui's ambition was considerable.
He not only wanted to possess Yu Mengzhi but also to gain complete control of Gou Chen.
The entire plan was seamless.
At this moment.
Yu Mengzhi also began to realize something was amiss.
While Su Jinghui appeared to be helping her, he was actually making the employees resent her.
If she didn't say something now, she would likely be mired in trouble.
In a moment of urgency, Yu Mengzhi made the most rational choice. She immediately refuted Su Jinghui's words, "Su Jinghui, do you know what you're saying? It's true that Chen Jinzhao is my boyfriend, but I never favor anyone. The incident has happened, so what we need to do is solve the problem, not attack the person who raised it."
"I suggest we call the police immediately."
"The police will give everyone justice. If this matter was indeed done by Chen Jinzhao, I will show no mercy."
She wasn't foolish.
With a few words, she skillfully deflected Su Jinghui's attack.
She even felt grateful to Su Jinghui for creating an opportunity for her to establish her authority and prestige.
Su Jinghui was caught off guard by these words and quickly signaled Liu Wenyao.
Liu Wenyao, his loyal lackey, instantly understood Su Jinghui's intention. He began to disperse the employees and demanded they delete the photos from their phones, adopting an arrogant stance to prevent the scandal from escalating.
The more forceful the security guards' actions, the worse the employees' impression of Yu Mengzhi became.
After all.
Few people knew that Gou Chen Group was not solely controlled by Yu Mengzhi's word.
Even fewer knew that Liu Wenyao belonged to Su Jinghui's faction. They couldn't grasp this level of detail, so they directed their dissatisfaction towards President Yu Mengzhi.
Instead of Su Jinghui.
Su Jinghui had regained a point, enraging Yu Mengzhi to the point her body trembled.
At this moment.
Chen Jinzhao, who had been overlooked by everyone, suddenly stepped forward, cleared his throat, and spoke.
"I said..."
"Has everyone forgotten about me?"
