353: Chapter 353 The Joker is actually himself?!
After thinking for a moment, Shen Yan replied, "Maybe it's Gu Xuantian. Let's go outside and take a look."
Saying that, he turned to the receptionist and said, "You did a great job. Keep it up next time."
The receptionist nodded happily.
Immediately after, Shen Yan and Chen Guangke walked out of the company building.
As soon as they stepped outside, they saw Gu Xuantian squatting at the company entrance.
"It really is you..."
Hearing the familiar voice, Gu Xuantian immediately looked up and stood up.
Because he stood up too quickly, his vision went black and he directly knelt on the floor.
Before he could regain his composure, he heard Shen Yan and Chen Guangke saying, "Stop, stop, stop. Even though we find you extremely displeasing, you didn't have to give us such a big gift the moment we met."
Hearing Shen Yan and Chen Guangke's words, Gu Xuantian was almost infuriated to the point of spitting blood on the spot.
"Are you guys seriously insane?!"
As soon as the words fell.
Gu Xuantian saw Shen Yan and Chen Guangke looking at him with expressions that were hard to describe.
"Are... are you sure you want to say those things to us while kneeling?"
Only then did Gu Xuantian realize he was still kneeling in front of them and hadn't gotten up.
He took a deep breath and shakily climbed up from the ground.
"Shen, you did this on purpose, didn't you? You deliberately let the experimental personnel in my project leak the project's secrets and documents, causing my project to die prematurely!"
Shen Yan shook his head with an innocent expression.
"I don't know what you're talking about."
Gu Xuantian didn't believe he truly didn't know.
After all, looking around, the only person daring to treat him this way was Shen Yan.
"Stop playing dumb here. You must have done this. What exactly do you want?!"
"I'm telling you, I've tolerated you enough! Regardless of what deal you struck with the Old Master, the feud between us two is set!"
Shen Yan nodded.
"Alright, I understand. Is there anything else you want to say?"
Gu Xuantian stared with unbelievable wide eyes.
"Did you not understand what I said?!"
"I am declaring war on you right now!"
Shen Yan continued to nod.
"Okay, I know. I accept. Anything else?"
Gu Xuantian trembled with rage.
He raised his finger, which was shaking like a Parkinson's patient, and pointed at Shen Yan, saying, "You... you..."
Shen Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, showing a hint of impatience.
"I'm rushing to buy a phone right now. I don't have time to listen to you ramble on here for half a day. Do you have anything else to say? If not, I'm leaving."
Saying that, he seemed to remember something and suddenly chuckled.
"Oh right, I remember you haven't watched the video we took last time. How about this, Old Chen, take out your phone and let him watch it."
As soon as he finished speaking.
Chen Guangke, suppressing a laugh, pulled out his phone, opened the video he recorded last time, and handed it to Gu Xuantian.
"Here, the video I took of you last time. I made your face look especially clear."
The video was played.
Gu Xuantian not only saw himself being thoroughly beaten by Shen Yan in the video but also saw himself shamelessly shedding tears.
"SHEN! YAN!"
Gu Xuantian didn't want to watch anymore. He roared in anger while snatching Chen Guangke's phone and smashing it on the ground.
The phone screen shattered instantly. Chen Guangke picked up his phone with a look of heartache.
"Ah! My phone!"
Seeing that Chen Guangke's phone was completely blacked out and wouldn't turn on, Gu Xuantian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He curled his lips and said to Shen Yan and Chen Guangke:
"Don't think this is over. I'm telling you, the consequences of offending me will definitely be more than this. I don't know why the Old Master is so afraid of you, but I'm telling you, I'm not afraid of you!"
Shen Yan acted as if he hadn't heard, turning directly to Gu Xuantian and saying, "Pay up."
Gu Xuantian gritted his teeth, "Don't even think about it! I will never pay you compensation!"
"Not only will I not pay compensation, but I will also make sure your company disappears from this industry!"
Hearing this, Shen Yan shook his head.
"Fine. Since you're unwilling to pay, then I'll just have to call the police. Destroying someone else's property is the most serious offense; it can result in up to one year in prison."
With that, he turned and walked into the company lobby, borrowing a phone from the receptionist to dial the police emergency number.
Gu Xuantian didn't expect Shen Yan to be serious. He pointed at Shen Yan like an idiot and said, "Are you crazy from poverty? It's just one phone, and you're actually calling the police!"
Chen Guangke rolled his eyes beside him.
"Wait for the police to arrive, and then you'll know if a few thousand yuan counts as money."
Although Gu Xuantian desperately wanted to teach Shen Yan and Chen Guangke a lesson right then, he didn't want the matter to escalate to involving the police.
He was afraid that if the police were called, Gu Hui would find out he had come looking for Shen Yan and Chen Guangke.
Once Gu Hui knew about this, he would inevitably force him to apologize to Shen Yan and Chen Guangke.
That would make him feel even more humiliated!
He didn't want things to reach that point, so he could only swallow his anger and ask Shen Yan and Chen Guangke, "How much is it?"
Chen Guangke thought he misheard. He pinched his earlobe and asked, "What did you say?"
Gu Xuantian's face flushed, "I asked how much that phone costs? I'll compensate you!"
Hearing this, Chen Guangke burst out laughing.
"Didn't you just declare that you would absolutely not compensate us? Why do you want to compensate us now?"
Gu Xuantian's face turned from red to pale and then red again. He said angrily, "Do you want the money or not? If you don't want the money, I'm leaving!"
Just as Chen Guangke was about to speak, Shen Yan stopped him and said, "Twenty thousand yuan."
Gu Xuantian: "... Am I an idiot? It's just a broken phone, how could it be twenty thousand!"
Shen Yan sneered, "If you don't have the money, just say you don't have the money. Why pretend to be strong in front of me?"
Gu Xuantian was provoked by the goading tactic. He directly took out his phone and said to Shen Yan, "Nonsense! How could I not have the money? Take out your phone, I'll scan the code and pay you right now!"
Shen Yan nodded and said to the receptionist standing nearby, "Excuse me, could you please take out your payment code so he can burn money for you."
Hearing this, the receptionist immediately took out the payment QR code on her phone and handed it to Gu Xuantian.
Although Gu Xuantian didn't know why Shen Yan wanted him to scan the money to the receptionist, he just wanted to leave now, so he didn't think much of it and directly opened his phone to scan the code and pay.
Soon, the receptionist's phone received twenty thousand yuan.
After transferring the money, Gu Xuantian didn't want to stay here for another second. He quickly turned and left.
Before leaving, he fiercely glared at Shen Yan and Chen Guangke to intimidate them.
But Shen Yan and Chen Guangke were busy talking to the receptionist and didn't see him at all.
With no other choice, he had to scurry away with his tail between his legs.
Once Gu Xuantian left, Chen Guangke nudged Shen Yan's shoulder with his elbow, "You were a bit too mean. Your phone broke on its own, and you still made him pay for your phone money..."
