345: Chapter 345 Ruthless Turn of the Tide

Shen Yan nodded and said, "Don't worry about me, I can handle this matter."

Although Chen Guangke trusted Shen Yan, he was still somewhat worried about him.

"How about this, I'll go with you? Since it was the two of us who went together that time."

Shen Yan shook his head and refused.

"No need, I can go by myself."

"Don't worry, the place he asked me to go to is Gu Corporation. No matter what, he won't lay a hand on me inside Gu Corporation."

Saying this, he seemed to recall something and suddenly turned back to Chen Guangke, saying, "Right, send me that video I asked you to record last time. I need it."

Chen Guangke hadn't reacted at first.

It wasn't until he saw the sly look in Shen Yan's eyes that he realized the video Shen Yan was talking about was the one of Gu Xuantian being beaten.

"Okay, I'll send it to you right now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Yan nodded and left the conference room.

As soon as he left the conference room, Wu Ya immediately asked Chen Guangke, "What's going on? What happened?"

Chen Guangke waved his hand and replied, "It has nothing to do with us. Let's discuss how to develop the third project first..."

...

Four o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Corporation.

Since arrangements had been made, as soon as Shen Yan arrived at Gu Corporation, The Supporting Male Character's secretary immediately led him to The Supporting Male Character's office.

"Knock, knock, knock."

"Come in."

A familiar voice came from inside the office.

The secretary opened the door for him and then stood by the door waiting for him to enter.

Shen Yan didn't hesitate and stepped directly into the office.

As soon as he entered, the secretary closed the door behind him.

"CEO Shen, long time no see."

Hearing this, Shen Yan felt a bit bewildered.

"Haven't we only been apart for a few days?"

The Supporting Male Character laughed a few times and walked over to sit on the sofa.

"Isn't there an old saying, 'A day apart feels like three years'?"

Shen Yan pursed his lips and replied, "I don't feel like a day apart is three years with you. Did you call me over regarding Gu Xuantian's matter, right?"

The Supporting Male Character nodded and poured Shen Yan a cup of tea.

"I heard from Xiangxiang that you hit him?"

Shen Yan admitted it very openly.

"That's right, I did hit him."

Saying this, he took out his phone, opened the video, and placed it in front of The Supporting Male Character.

"I even have the video here, do you want to see it?"

The video was opened, and Gu Xuantian's voice begging for mercy and apologizing came from the speaker.

"Slap!"

The teacup was placed down heavily.

The Supporting Male Character's face darkened, and he looked up at Shen Yan, asking, "Are you provoking me?"

Shen Yan shook his head and replied, "How can this be called provocation? If one must describe this action, I would prefer to call it giving him a taste of his own medicine."

The Supporting Male Character's expression grew gloomier.

"What do you mean by that?"

Shen Yan curved his lips, looked into The Supporting Male Character's eyes, and replied, "If Chairman Gu's brain is fine, he should know what I'm talking about."

"The thing I dislike most is people causing trouble. Chairman Gu, I don't think there's any enmity between us, right?"

The Supporting Male Character did not answer.

Shen Yan continued, "Although Gu Xuantian said he did this on his own and wasn't incited by anyone else, I think this matter should be inseparable from you, Chairman Gu."

"Neither of us is a fool, so I prefer to speak plainly rather than beating around the bush when communicating with you."

Before he finished speaking, The Supporting Male Character spoke up.

"I also don't like beating around the bush."

"Shen Yan, you should know why I collaborated on projects with you, and why I wasted so much money on you."

"I did all this just to be able to cooperate with you. I hope you can work for me."

Shen Yan shrugged his shoulders and replied, "What you said makes sense, but I don't want to work for you."

"It was you who suddenly and inexplicably proposed cooperation, and it was you who inexplicably sent me so much money. I never said I wanted you to give me money from the very beginning."

As soon as he finished speaking, The Supporting Male Character gritted his teeth, "But you accepted my gift!"

Shen Yan's eyes widened.

"Hey! Chairman Gu, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't speak nonsense. What kind of gift is that? The money from the casino I won myself, and the money from the project I earned through the project!"

Gu Hui was rendered speechless.

Although what Shen Yan said made sense, any discerning person could see that he was trying every means possible to send money to the other party.

"Are you trying to play dumb with me?"

Hearing this, Shen Yan shook his head and replied, "That's not quite right. I have no intention of playing dumb; the facts are simply as they are."

"Otherwise, tell me, why would you want to give me so much money just because you wanted me to handle something for you?"

Gu Hui: "..."

How could he explain? He couldn't possibly say that he went to great lengths to send Shen Yan so much money just to trap him, could he?

Being repeatedly refuted to the point of having nothing to say, The Supporting Male Character stopped pursuing this matter.

He took a deep breath and said to Shen Yan, "Fine, let's put this matter aside for now. Even if Gu Xuantian truly offended your people, you shouldn't have treated him like that, right?"

"I heard his hand was directly pierced through. You crippled his hand, how should you compensate him?"

Shen Yan looked as if he had heard something extremely funny, his face full of suppressed laughter.

"Compensation?"

"Why should I compensate him?"

The Supporting Male Character's face sank again and again.

"You injured him so badly, and you still don't need to compensate him?"

Shen Yan shook his head while replying, "Your talk of compensation makes sense, but you have the cause and effect reversed. He wronged me first, and compensation comes after."

"If it weren't for him losing a hand, do you think I would have let him off so easily?"

"Crash!"

The teacup shattered.

The Supporting Male Character finally couldn't hold back.

"Shen Yan! Don't think that just because I want to win you over, you can get away with being so arrogant with me!"

Shen Yan was too lazy to continue the act with him.

"Give it up. What 'win you over'? I don't believe that whatever you want me to do for you can be anything good. You provoked me first, and I retaliated second!"

Saying this, his eyes narrowed.

"I didn't act against you because I was looking forward to something from you. I didn't act against you because I had important business to attend to. If you still insist on obstructing me, then don't blame me... for not holding back."

The Supporting Male Character laughed in anger.

"Isn't it just a small company that just got started? You don't actually think your little tricks are effective against me, do you?"

Shen Yan shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Then let's try it out. We'll see who collapses first, you or me."

"Oh right, you are trying so hard to win me over to do things for you, which suggests that whatever you want me to do must be very urgent."
