344: Chapter 344 Killing the Chicken to Warn the Monkey

Gu Xuantian's roar didn't even earn a single glance from Shen Yan.

He picked up the broken wine glass again, holding it suspended above Gu Xuantian's right hand, and said with a half-smile:

"I remember you were just planning to hit me with this hand, right?"

A stinging pain shot through his right hand, and Gu Xuantian began to feel afraid again.

He gritted his teeth and pleaded softly with Shen Yan:

"Don't be like this... I was wrong just now, please let me go, I really don't dare anymore..."

Shen Yan shook his head and said, "What kind of talk is that? Anyone who doesn't know the situation might think I was bullying you..."

The onlookers around: "..."

Weren't you?!

Shen Yan had already spent enough time here.

He didn't want to waste all of his time on this useless good-for-nothing.

He pressed down hard with his right hand, fiercely stabbing the glass shard into Gu Xuantian's palm.

"Ahhh!!!"

A scream rang out.

Shen Yan withdrew the glass shard, tossed it aside, clapped his hands, and stood up.

He then said to Gu Xuantian leisurely, "Alright, since you sincerely admitted your mistake, I won't hold the matter of you hiring people to poach my laboratory team against you anymore."

As he spoke, he walked toward Chen Guangke's direction.

At this moment, Chen Guangke had finished recording the entire video.

He stood up, put his phone back in his pocket, and followed Shen Yan step by step toward the exit.

Because of the excessively sharp and imposing manner Shen Yan had displayed just now, no one around dared to stop them.

Just as the two of them were about to walk out of the four-person villa, Shen Yan seemed to suddenly remember something and turned back to Gu Xuantian, who was writhing on the ground in pain:

"Oh right, if you still have any lingering resentment, feel free to complain to your grandfather anytime, and have him come find me personally."

After saying this, he left without looking back, taking Chen Guangke with him.

After leaving the private villa and returning to the car, Chen Guangke couldn't help but laugh.

He laughed while driving and said to Shen Yan, "You are too arrogant, aren't you?"

Shen Yan glanced at Chen Guangke.

"Weren't you watching quite happily?"

Chen Guangke snorted.

"Of course I was happy. That little brat has nothing, yet he talks such nonsense. Even if you hadn't done anything, I would have. But I didn't expect him to be such a coward..."

He truly hadn't expected Gu Xuantian to be so disappointing.

They hadn't even done much, yet Gu Xuantian was already crying and begging for mercy, showing none of the imposing aura his grandfather possessed.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of Gu Mingming.

He thought that if he were The Supporting Male Character, he definitely wouldn't have chosen Gu Xuantian as his heir.

If someone like Gu Xuantian could become the boss of the company, then the company's fortune must be nearing its end.

Shen Yan didn't know what Chen Guangke was thinking; he assumed Chen Guangke was grateful that he had let Gu Xuantian off easily.

He said to Chen Guangke, "He is just a young master who was spoiled from childhood."

"To put it nicely, he's a young master; in reality, he's just a good-for-nothing. Don't even bother keeping him in mind."

Chen Guangke nodded, then asked, "What about The Supporting Male Character? Aren't you afraid he'll come looking for trouble?"

Shen Yan curled his lips, but there was no smile in his eyes.

"Why should I be afraid of him coming to find me? I wish he would hurry up and come find me."

"I said that this matter was definitely not Gu Xuantian's idea alone; he dared to do this only because The Supporting Male Character was instigating him from behind."

"If The Supporting Male Character dares to meddle with my company's projects, I dare to meddle with his company."

Saying this, he closed his eyes, "Let's wait and see for now. See when he comes to find me."

After that, two more days passed.

During this period, there was no news whatsoever from Gu Corporation.

The Supporting Male Character acted as if he didn't know his grandson had been bullied by Shen Yan.

Not only was there no sound or rumor, but he also didn't proactively contact Shen Yan.

Regarding this, Shen Yan's composure remained steady.

Because he knew The Supporting Male Character would inevitably lose patience and come to find him sooner or later.

In the conference room.

Shen Yan was discussing the third project with Wu Ya and Chen Guangke.

They had now decided to develop a short-form video software for internet startups.

"We'll assign this software to the Branch Company. Xiao Wu, you don't have any objections, right?"

Hearing this, Wu Ya shook her head and replied, "Of course, I have no objection, but... we still have The Supporting Male Character's project on hand. If we continue to research the third project, I'm afraid we won't have enough time."

As she finished speaking, Shen Yan thought seriously for a moment and felt that Wu Ya was right.

If both projects were assigned to the Branch Company, it would be uncertain when the third project would even hatch.

He thought it over again and finally decided to assign this project to Company Name for the time being.

"Then this project will temporarily stay with Company Name. We'll deal with subsequent matters later."

Wu Ya and Chen Guangke nodded.

Just as they were about to continue discussing other matters, Shen Yan's phone rang; it was Gu Hui calling.

Originally, Shen Yan thought The Supporting Male Character wouldn't call him for several more days, but he didn't expect the other party to be so impatient, calling him within just two or three days.

As he thought, he answered the phone and asked the person on the other end, "Chairman Gu, why are you calling me so suddenly? Is there something wrong?"

The Supporting Male Character on the other end of the line was so angry when he heard the truth that he almost spat blood.

Did Shen Yan not know why he was calling?!

A couple of days ago, Gu Xuantian had suddenly run to him crying his eyes out, accusing Shen Yan of the atrocities he had committed against him.

Initially, he didn't believe it.

After all, in his mind, Shen Yan wasn't someone who would push things to such extremes.

But Shen Yan had indeed brought people to find Gu Xuantian, and Gu Xuantian's hangers-on also testified that Shen Yan had indeed hit Gu Xuantian.

Therefore, The Supporting Male Character ultimately decided to call Shen Yan and ask him to come to his place to understand the situation.

"It's like this, did you go to find Gu Xuantian the other day?"

Shen Yan admitted it without hesitation.

"That's right, I did go to find him. What's wrong?"

Hearing the question, The Supporting Male Character cleared his throat, and Shen Yan replied, "It's like this, it seems there's some misunderstanding between Gu Xuantian and you."

"When are you free? Can you come to my company to confront him in person?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Yan let out a light chuckle.

"Sure, I'm free right now. Are you at the company? I'll come find you now."

The Supporting Male Character didn't expect Shen Yan to agree so easily.

He paused for a moment, then nodded, replying to Shen Yan on the other end of the line, "Okay, then come over. I'm at the company right now."

After hanging up the phone.

Shen Yan gathered his documents, stood up, and said to Wu Ya and Chen Guangke, "I need to step out for a bit. You two discuss things further with the people in the Technology Department."

Hearing this, Chen Guangke frowned. He stood up and asked Shen Yan, "Did The Supporting Male Character call you? Is he coming to find you about what happened the other day?"
