52: This is the beginning of the dirty tricks

Chapter 52: They're Starting to Play Dirty

At this moment, outside the Huang Corporation headquarters building.

A middle-aged man, all alone with a child, was kneeling in front of the corporation building.

His face was filled with grief and anger.

The sign hanging around his neck read in blood-red characters: 'Huang Corporation, Utterly Ruthless!'

And the banner he held in both hands read: 'Return My Home,' also in large red ink!

Onlookers gathered around, pointing and discussing.

The middle-aged man's sorrowful, angry cries were particularly clear.

The child beside him was so frightened by the scene that he started crying.

Opposite them, a group of lackeys in suits, led by White Hair, glared angrily at the father and son.

"Stop acting! Don't think the Huang Corporation can be slandered and framed by a few words from trash like you!"

Uh...

Huang Yu's mouth twitched as he watched the scene, feeling a sense of déjà vu.

"Do all you men like to twitch your mouths?"

Seeing Huang Yu's mouth twitch, Yun Yun immediately recalled her disciple's somewhat disgusting crooked smile.

Although Huang Yu's wasn't as ugly.

She was still a bit speechless.

Damn it, Xiao Zhan that idiot infected me.

Hearing Yun Yun's voice, Huang Yu cursed inwardly and realized his expression was off.

To make the same gesture as someone as disgusting as Xiao Zhan was an insult to him.

Wait.

Huang Yu seemed to realize something, his gaze gradually shifting to Yun Yun.

With a meaningful, half-smile, he said,

"You said 'you men'... besides me, who else likes to twitch their mouth?"

Hearing this, Yun Yun immediately realized she had let something slip.

After all, her disciple's favorite thing was to smile with a crooked mouth.

Huang Yu absolutely couldn't have not seen it.

But at the moment, she couldn't find a good excuse, so she remained silent, shifting her gaze to the two sides confronting each other outside.

Seeing this, Huang Yu didn't say anything more.

Anyway, she would expose herself eventually.

On the other side, as the conflict and words between White Hair and the middle-aged man grew more intense.

"Damn it, I'll break your leg!"

"Stop!"

White Hair, unable to stand it any longer, was about to make a move when he was suddenly called out.

Huang Yu slowly walked forward, a playful look in his eyes as he regarded the father and son kneeling outside.

"Bring them to the office. I'll have a good talk with these two."

"Yes."

Though somewhat unwilling, White Hair suppressed his urge to act and approached the middle-aged man.

"Didn't you keep shouting that you wanted to see our boss? Come on."

"Our Young Master Huang will personally solve your problem. Are you satisfied now?"

"Who knows if you're up to no good?"

"Do you want to solve the problem or not? Stop being so unreasonable."

"Who's being unreasonable? You were the ones who demolished our house first!"

...

Watching the two sides conversing below.

Huang Yu, with his omniscient perspective, naturally knew who had sent the middle-aged man and child to protest.

If the original plot were to unfold, without any surprises, two hours later, the middle-aged man would be playing 'human cannonball' from the top floor of the Huang Corporation headquarters, complete with a flame buff.

A smear campaign, accusing Huang Yu of forcing a father and son from the lower class to their deaths over forced demolition, would be launched against him.

And this would mark the beginning of the misunderstanding between Han Yuyao and Huang Yu in the original story.

After all, Han Yuyao was a very upright person; how could she tolerate someone she knew acting like that?

But Huang Yu was truly wronged.

He wasn't that crazy Zhao Young Master; at most, he was a spoiled brat. He had certainly had people's legs broken, but that was done by White Hair, his number one lackey.

Murder and arson? That was really giving him too much credit.

This so-called protesting middle-aged man was just someone Li Hua arranged to cause trouble for him.

However, since the other party was resorting to such underhanded tactics.

Huang Yu didn't mind teaching him a lesson.

After a heated exchange and negotiation between White Hair and the other party, the middle-aged man finally couldn't withstand the various pressing questions and reluctantly got up, following White Hair to the CEO's office.

Entering the CEO's office, the middle-aged man unceremoniously sat on the sofa, crossing his legs.

His face showed anger, but also a hint of entitlement and smugness.

"How exactly do you plan to solve my problem?"

Huang Yu didn't rush to answer. Instead, he slowly walked to his seat, sat down, and calmly looked at the other party.

"You have to explain the problem clearly before I can solve it, right?"

The middle-aged man sneered, angrily saying,

"Your Huang Corporation's real estate company injured my wife when they forcibly demolished my house!"

"If you don't give us justice today, I will never let this go!"

With that, the middle-aged man picked up a Sprite plastic bottle he was holding and poured its contents over his head.

"It smells like gasoline!"

Noticing something was wrong, White Hair rushed forward to shield Huang Yu.

"Young Master Huang, please leave quickly!"

"We'll hold them off here!"

Huang Yu didn't panic. He pushed White Hair, who was blocking him, aside and quietly watched the scene unfold.

The middle-aged man's eyes were filled with despair and pain. As he poured gasoline over his head, he cursed at him.

"You Huang Family are utterly ruthless!"

"You only make ill-gotten gains; sooner or later, you'll face retribution!"

By this time, the child he had brought along was crying loudly, terrified.

He looked at the scene beside him in horror, his small hands trembling uncontrollably.

But the middle-aged man paid no attention.

"The same old trick of pouring gasoline? Don't you have any new ones?"

Huang Yu sighed.

However, he knew that the middle-aged man truly didn't want to live, and the forced demolition was a fact.

His protest was also a fact.

But during this process, Li Hua had promised the middle-aged man one thing.

That was, if he followed his instructions, his wife and child would receive 500,000 yuan.

The middle-aged man agreed without hesitation.

Because even if he didn't agree, he didn't have many good days left to live.

This middle-aged man's name was Li Guochang, and he was from the same village as Li Hua, who was a high-ranking executive.

He was Li Hua's cousin.

However, Li Hua had been taken in by the Huang Family since childhood, so he wasn't very close to his rural relatives.

Li Guochang knew this, but unfortunately, he had recently been diagnosed with a terminal illness and could only shamelessly come to this distant junior for help.

Firstly, for the matter of his rights.

Secondly, to borrow money for medical treatment.

Facing such a desperate situation, Li Hua didn't directly agree but instead used this plan as a condition for his help.

Although the middle-aged man's heart was filled with immense fear and trembling.

But thinking of his forcibly demolished house, and his wife and child who might be left alone and helpless in the future.

He finally agreed.

But little did he know, neither the terminal illness nor the forced demolition of the house was anything more than a setup by his cousin.

The purpose was to provoke Huang Yu, make him lose control, and create a motive.

Then, use his cousin's death to completely ruin his reputation.

Thereby seizing the opportunity to cause trouble and force Huang Yu out of power.
