356: Quelling rumors

Unconsciously, a night had already passed.

Su Yue arrived at Yuantu Investment Company as usual and immediately saw many reporters at the entrance.

At this time, these reporters were taking pictures of the decorations at the entrance.

Lan Zijun wanted to make their charitable donation public, so she deliberately placed a large screen at the entrance.

To ensure the reliability of the donation, she even hired specialized staff to stay here and watch.

Su Yue found a parking spot and parked the car, looking inside with a face full of surprise, completely unaware of why there were so many people here.

Su Yue was seen squeezing through the crowd to get to the front, wanting to go inside and take a look.

Unexpectedly, a few reporters spotted Su Yue and quickly stopped him: "General Manager Su, could you please accept our interview?"

Originally, Su Yue didn't want to bother with them, but then a reporter spoke bluntly: "Is there any falsification in your donation? Could you tell us about it?"

When Su Yue heard the reporter say this, he couldn't help but walk up to them and point in the direction of the staff: "Asking such a question is simply questioning the fairness of these staff members. Do you need me to call them over?"

With just a few words, the reporters lost the will to speak and put away their microphones one after another.

Just from their performance, it was clear that nine out of ten of them were stooges hired by Mu Ruguang.

As long as these reporters found even the slightest little thing, they would surely exaggerate it infinitely and would never give Su Yue a chance.

However, Su Yue came here in person this time, precisely to prevent Lan Zijun's arrangements from being unreasonable.

As soon as he arrived at the company, someone immediately came up to Su Yue and said: "General Manager Su, we are waiting for you upstairs."

Hearing them say this, Su Yue quickly went to Lan Zijun's office, wanting to see how their arrangements were.

Soon, Lan Zijun saw Su Yue come to her and pointed downstairs: "General Manager Su, don't you think my arrangement this time is pretty good?"

To prevent those reporters who lacked judgment from responding, she specifically placed the reporters she hired at the front.

And the special reporters this time were all at the front, so she believed they wouldn't ask those nonsensical questions.

Su Yue looked at Lan Zijun using this method to arrange things, his brows furrowed slightly, and he couldn't help but say: "Some things shouldn't be too ostentatious."

Originally, their act of charity should be a good thing, but if they were too ostentatious, it would seem a bit deliberate.

By this point, Su Yue had no way to change it and could only continue according to her method.

In just a few minutes, the staff walked in from the entrance and stood before Su Yue: "General Manager Su, we are almost ready to start the event."

In their eyes, some things cannot be delayed.

Su Yue and Lan Zijun exchanged glances and quickly walked outside, as if wanting to get to the scene as soon as possible to take charge of the situation.

If the two of them delayed their arrival, the reporters would surely make a big deal out of such a matter.

At that time, Su Yue might also face trouble.

In just a few minutes, Su Yue and Lan Zijun arrived downstairs and stood on the stage.

The reporters below the stage saw that the main figures had arrived and frantically pressed their cameras.

They were originally hired by Lan Zijun to create momentum; if they didn't do their job, they would surely not be asked to help with any major scoops next time.

Lan Zijun saw that Su Yue hadn't walked to the front and nudged him with her elbow: "General Manager Su, you go over and talk to them."

From organizing the auction to now, Lan Zijun felt that she had always been working behind the scenes, and she had no reason to claim credit.

Su Yue originally planned to let Lan Zijun take the lead, but she was unwilling, so he had to step forward himself.

Su Yue was seen pointing to the staff next to him and introduced them, shutting up many people.

As long as these people were here, those who questioned the fraudulent donation had no way, as no one could deny the fairness of the staff.

Afterward, Su Yue looked in the direction of the finance department: "Now, in front of everyone, we will display the amount we have calculated this time."

Because the auction also required paying a portion of the fees, they had no reason to include that portion of the fees in their company's accounts.

In less than a minute, the finance department displayed the detailed list on the screen.

To make the detailed list on the screen understandable to everyone, Su Yue specifically explained it to them, so they could understand how the money was calculated.

Afterward, Su Yue nodded to the finance department: "Next is the time for our donation. Please point your cameras at the large screen."

He was unwilling to hog the spotlight in such matters and quietly went to the back, standing beside Lan Zijun.

Lan Zijun watched as Su Yue handled the donation matter in just a few words, and a smile spread across her face: "Not bad, you actually have such capability."

Su Yue shrugged indifferently: "The main act isn't this. You should know that many people are eyeing us like a tiger watching its prey."

Lan Zijun understood Su Yue's meaning and didn't say much more about it.

Meanwhile, General Manager Guo's call came through to Su Yue's phone.

Su Yue knew that General Manager Guo must have something important, so he took his phone, walked to the back, and answered the call.

General Manager Guo reported all the recent activities at Huashi Hotel, stating that Guo Fukun had already arrived at Liu Hua's office.

Since their conversation was extremely confidential, General Manager Guo felt he had to inform Su Yue about this matter.

When Su Yue heard that Guo Fukun was there, how could he not know what the two of them were discussing?

Since they had already started to act, Su Yue felt they had no reason to delay.

He was seen walking up to Lan Zijun and said softly: "There's movement at Huashi Hotel. I need to go there."

Lan Zijun looked at Su Yue with a face full of surprise and nodded slightly: "Report to me immediately if anything happens. We will give you one hundred percent support."

After finally donating the funds to the charity organization, no one expected such a thing to happen.

In just a few minutes, Su Yue left the company through the back door and quietly drove away Lan Zijun's car.

His car was parked where the reporters were located, and if he went to drive it rashly, he might become the center of attention.

From Su Yue's perspective, he was unwilling to be the focus of attention.

In just half a day, Su Yue returned to his residence with Tao Qingbai.

Tao Qingbai watched Su Yue anxiously handling matters and couldn't help but look him over: "If you need my help with anything, just come find me. It's a good opportunity for me to repay your favor."

In Tao Qingbai's opinion, Su Yue driving away the people from the entertainment industry had already given him a lot of face.

Otherwise, if people from the entertainment industry spread rumors about him, no one would know how he should explain.

Su Yue already understood Tao Qingbai's meaning in his heart but didn't point it out. He drove to the building below Huashi Hotel.

As agreed, General Manager Guo was sitting downstairs.

When he saw Su Yue arrive, he immediately got into the car and placed a photo and an address in Su Yue's hand.

"This address is the hotel where he is temporarily staying. You will have to handle the rest yourself. I can't help anymore."

Saying this, General Manager Guo wanted to get out of the car.

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he looked at Su Yue again: "I hope our cooperation won't fall apart."

Su Yue saw him look at himself and said without hesitation: "Put your mind at ease. Yu Qing's example is right in front of you. If I wanted to deal with Muxin Hotel, how could I not deal with Yu Qing?"

With the precedent of Yu Qing, General Manager Guo was willing to enter into a temporary cooperation with Su Yue.

Afterward, Su Yue went to the hotel according to the address.

In just half an hour, Guo Fukun walked in from the entrance with a serious face, as if he wanted to go back to his room to rest.

Su Yue looked at Guo Fukun and couldn't help but walk up to him: "General Manager Guo, I think we have a cooperation to discuss."

Guo Fukun looked at Su Yue, thinking he had never seen him before, and shook his head: "I don't know you. If you have anything, you can make an appointment with my Secretary."

Saying this, Guo Fukun bypassed Su Yue and intended to go into the elevator.

However, before he could get inside, Su Yue's voice reached his ears: "I already know about your relationship with Huashi Hotel. You don't have to talk to me; I'm leaving."

When Guo Fukun heard Su Yue bring up the matter of Huashi Hotel, his eyes immediately widened.

Just as Su Yue had judged, it was highly likely that Liu Hua and Guo Fukun had reached a cooperation; otherwise, he would have no reason to be so nervous.

To prevent the matter from leaking, Guo Fukun couldn't help but beckon to Su Yue: "Come to my room. Let's talk in the room."

There were many people outside, and no one knew if anyone had overheard their conversation.

Su Yue heard that Guo Fukun was willing to take him back to the room and immediately followed beside him.

Perhaps because the matter was relatively important, Guo Fukun didn't even want to bring his Secretary and only took Su Yue into the room.

Guo Fukun was seen placing his coat on the sofa and looked back at Su Yue: "Tell me, how much money do you need? And what information do you have?"

In his eyes, only by knowing the importance of the information could he know how much money he should give.

Su Yue saw that Guo Fukun wanted to give him money and couldn't help but shake his head at him, placing his business card in his hand: "This is my business card. I believe you will understand what I need after looking at it."

When Guo Fukun heard Su Yue say this, he took the business card with a face full of doubt.

Suddenly, he saw the name on the business card and his eyes widened: "Su Yue? You are that Su Yue from Yuantu Investment Company?"

Su Yue did not hide his identity and nodded slightly: "That's right, I am Su Yue from Yuantu Investment Company. I came to find you this time for the matter of Huashi Hotel."

Guo Fukun heard that Su Yue wanted to talk about the matter of Yuantu Investment Company and couldn't help but say to Su Yue: "Why are you coming to me to negotiate about your matters? I don't think we have a direct relationship, do we?"

Until now, he still held a glimmer of hope, thinking that Su Yue should not know about their behind-the-scenes operations.

However, Su Yue had already found their evidence, so how could he be scared by their threats like this?

Su Yue was seen shrugging indifferently: "If you think I don't have any evidence in my hand, then I'm leaving."

Guo Fukun watched Su Yue planning to leave, his brows furrowed slightly, and he hesitated to call out to Su Yue.

At this time, he had no certainty in his heart at all and didn't know if Su Yue had concrete evidence in his hand.

Su Yue knew that Guo Fukun was definitely observing his actions and quietly placed his hand on the doorknob.

Just at this moment, Guo Fukun's voice came out somewhat weakly: "Come over, we can talk."

Su Yue heard Guo Fukun's voice, quietly put his hand down, and walked up to Guo Fukun: "Let's talk. What kind of shady dealings do you have? My request is not difficult, otherwise, we will both suffer."

Although Su Yue didn't know what their method against Yuantu Investment Company was, Su Yue believed that the method they came up with must be a killer move.

Guo Fukun heard Su Yue say this and couldn't help but take a deep breath: "What do you need us to do?"

In his eyes, he also wanted to settle this matter.

Otherwise, if both sides were injured, it would only give others an opportunity.

Su Yue watched Guo Fukun wanting him to make demands and chuckled: "It's very simple, I only have one request, which is to suspend everything you are about to do, otherwise, I don't mind revealing your affairs."

Guo Fukun understood Su Yue's meaning and had a serious face, as if weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

Without asking, it was highly likely that Liu Hua had offered very generous terms.

Otherwise, Guo Fukun would have no reason to hesitate, leaving him silent for a long time.

Su Yue watched Guo Fukun not responding for a long time, put his hands on his chest, and chuckled: "If Liu Hua's matter is known by other shareholders, I believe your company will cease to exist, right?"

Most of their funds came from Huashi Hotel, and without Liu Hua's cooperation, they would surely have no money in their pockets.

Guo Fukun heard Su Yue explain the stakes and smiled: "If we don't act and you reveal our affairs, wouldn't we lose both people and money?"

He originally planned to use this matter to threaten Su Yue and make Su Yue give them some benefits.

However, Su Yue had no intention of giving them benefits and shrugged indifferently: "If you think you have the confidence to negotiate terms with me, then I won't be interested."

Anyway, Yuantu Investment Company had sufficient capital, and at worst, it could develop for a while.

Huashi Hotel, on the other hand, was completely different. Su Yue had a trump card like Muxin Hotel in his hand and could completely send Huashi Hotel into an abyss of no return.
