Chapter 59 Heart Aches to No End

  Lin San furrowed his brow: "This Qin Hao is really detestable."

  Gujalan is now in a very bad mood, because of his own carelessness, he has brought such a big trouble to the company. Qin Hao himself is nothing, and Qin Shenghan, Qin Hao's father, is also nothing. The key is that Qin Hao's uncle, the vice governor, is a huge threat. A vice governor, a high-ranking official at the deputy ministerial level, wants to make things difficult for an enterprise, it's really too easy.

  "What should we do now?" Lin San asked.

  Gujalan shook his head: "There is no good way for now, we can only take it one step at a time."

  Lin San was about to say something when the phone on his desk suddenly rang.

  Gujalan walked over, picked up the receiver, listened for a few sentences and hung up. He turned around and apologetically said to Lin San: "I have to attend the board meeting convened by the company, you go back to the security department first, I'll contact you after work."

  Lin nodded three times, comforted Gu Jialan a few words, and then turned around and left the office.

  Gu Jialan calmed down her irritable mood and went directly to the 30th floor to attend the board meeting.

  Lin San sat in a chair, with a burning cigarette between his fingers, slightly furrowing his brow and staring blankly.

  "Hmm." Lin San's fingers suddenly felt a sharp pain, and when he looked down, he found that the cigarette had unknowingly burned to the end and scorched his fingertips. Lin San threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray, reached out and picked up his tea cup, taking a few sips.

  Lin San put down his teacup and casually picked up a newspaper on the table to flip through it.

  "Huh?" Lin San suddenly exclaimed in surprise, staring intently at a news article on the newspaper. The report was about the completion of an offshore bridge, which stated that the bridge, presided over by Vice Governor Qin Xiangdong, had been completed yesterday after one year and six months of construction, with an investment of 1 billion yuan, making it one of the province's most famous projects... Next to the news article was a photo of Vice Governor Qin Xiangdong presiding over the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

  "Deputy Governor Qin Xiangdong... the cross-sea bridge..." Lin San slightly furrowed his brow: "This Qin Xiangdong is probably Qin Hao's uncle." Looking at the smiling face of Qin Xiangdong in the photo, Lin San suddenly felt a wave of disgust. He pushed the newspaper aside, stood up, walked to the windowsill, and opened the window. Autumn had arrived, and the trees by the road were beginning to wither, their yellow leaves scattered all over the ground.

  In the evening after work, Gu Jialan called Lin San and asked him out for dinner.

  Lin San put down the phone and immediately put on his coat and came downstairs.

  Gǔ Jiālán had been waiting downstairs for a long time and saw Lín Sān come out, immediately calling on Lín Sān to get in the car and head east.

  All the way, Gu Jialan didn't say much, just slightly furrowed her brow, with a look of deep concern.

  "Jialan, what's wrong?" Lin San asked with concern.

  "Ugh... just now in the conference room, my dad got into an argument with several colleagues who know what's going on." Gu Jialan let out a soft sigh.

  "What's going on?"

  "It's all because of that shameless Qin Hao, many people in the company are saying that I'm the one who caused the trouble and want me to take sole responsibility for it, so as not to implicate the company. And some even suggested that I marry Qin Hao... My dad didn't want to listen and ended up having a fierce argument with the board of directors..." Gu Jialan's face turned somewhat unsightly by the end of her words.

  Gu Changfeng owns 60% of the shares of Ding Sheng Group, and the remaining 40% are held by several other people who understand things. It can be said that Ding Sheng Group is not just Gu Changfeng alone. Now that Ding Sheng Group has encountered an unprecedented disaster, the other few people who understand things immediately became unwilling, claiming that the trouble was caused by Gu Jialan and wanting to let Gu Jialan take responsibility alone. Gu Changfeng's love for his daughter was deep, and he immediately turned against several people on the spot, finally becoming so angry that he smashed a cup on the spot.

  "Jialan, don't bother with those petty people." Lin San comforted.

  Gujalan shook his head: "Several of the company's executives said that if they can't resolve the matter within three days, they will... withdraw their shares."

  "What?" Lin San frowned: "Those few who understand are too much. When the company encounters difficulties, they want to slap their buttocks and leave? It's really too lacking in quality!" Originally, the Ding Sheng Group had suffered a lot of trauma in recent days. If several people who understood the situation joined forces to withdraw their shares, it would be a devastating blow to the Ding Sheng Group.

  Gujalan hung her head low, her body trembling slightly, tears slowly flowing out of her eye sockets.

  Lin San's heart skipped a beat as he reached out and grasped Gulalan's shoulder, his voice filled with concern: "Gulalan, why are you crying?"

  Gu Jialan slowly wrapped her arms around Lin San's waist, buried her head in his shoulder and began to sob: "I'm so upset, it's all my fault that the company is in trouble, I've let everyone down." Gu Jialan had been feeling suffocated these past few days, especially after seeing Gu Changfeng argue loudly with several people for her sake today.

  Seeing Gu Jialan's unstoppable tears, Lin San felt a pang in his heart, stretched out his hand to gently stroke Gu Jialan's back, and softly comforted her.

  Gu Jialan slowly stopped crying and fell asleep on Lin San's shoulder.

  Lin San stretched out his hand and gently stroked Gu Jialan's hair, sighed, and said to the driver, "Take Miss Gu home directly."

  The driver nodded and turned the car around, heading towards the villa district where Gu Jialan lived.

  Provincial capital.

  Inside a VIP room of a nightclub.

  Qin Hao, dressed in casual attire, was laughing and drinking with a group of friends, while two scantily-clad female waitresses stood by to serve them in the private room.

  "Qin Shao, I heard that you've been plotting against the Ding Sheng Group in Lanzhou recently?" a sly-looking young man said with a smile.

  Qin Hao took a glance at the young man: "Xiaolong, you're quite well-informed, aren't you?" As he spoke, he pulled out a cigarette and lit it.

  The young man known as Little Dragon hastily bowed his head, picked up the lighter on the tea table and lit Qin Hao's cigarette: "Qin Shao, I also heard from a few friends that you dealt with the Ding Sheng Group quite ruthlessly."

  Qin Hao spat out a mouthful of smoke and sneered, "It's all Gu Jialan's own doing. Relying on her rich father, she dares to ignore my existence! I'll make sure Gu Jialan comes crawling to me on her knees!"

  "Qin Shao, calm down, it's not worth getting so angry over a woman. Come on, let's have a drink." Xiaolong raised his wine cup.

  Qin Hao picked up his wine glass and clinked it with Xiaolong's, then downed it in one gulp.

  "Come on, you two come over and serve Qin Shao." Xiaolong called out to the two female waitresses standing by in the private room.

  Two female waitresses immediately smiled and approached, one on the left and one on the right, sitting beside Qin Hao, stretching out their hands to hold onto Qin Hao's arms.

  Qin Hao chuckled and stretched out his big hand to pinch the chests of the two female waitresses: "Big enough! Tasty!"

  "Oh no...... Qin Shao, you're so bad." The two female waitresses said with a pout.

  "Haha... that's right, I'm a bad guy." Qin Hao burst out laughing and hugged a curvaceous waitress before kissing her passionately.

  The female waitress also responded enthusiastically and even took off her jacket automatically, revealing a pink bra inside.

  Qin Hao gradually became somewhat emotional, took a deep breath, and raised his head to glance at Xiaolong and the others: "All of you get out."

  Xiao Long smiled and led a few young people out of the private room.

  As soon as the door of the suite was closed, Qin Hao quickly took off his clothes and pounced on the two female waitresses with a low growl, apparently intending to have a threesome.

  It took Qin Hao more than an hour to finally put on his clothes and walk out of the private room.

  "Qin Shao." The little dragon and others who were waiting in the corridor hurried forward to greet him.

  "I still have something to attend to, I'll leave first. The two women in the house are yours." With that, Qin Hao swaggered downstairs.

  Xiao Long and the others exchanged a glance, then suddenly shouted and rushed into the private room, pinning down the two female waitresses who were getting dressed, and began playing games between men and women.

  Qin Hao left the nightclub at night and drove directly back home. Although Qin Hao's life was dissolute, he would always return home before 12 o'clock every night, which was a rule set by Qin Shenghan that did not allow Qin Hao to stay out overnight. Once again, Qin Hao got drunk and didn't come back for the whole night, and the next day he was severely scolded by Qin Shenghan, and finally locked at home for half a month. From then on, Qin Hao never dared to stay out all night again.

  Qin Hao's home is a three-story independent villa, with a pool in front of the door. In the pool stands a fake mountain, and streams of water flow down from the top of the fake mountain, looking like a small waterfall from afar. The flower pool is also planted with some fragrant flowers and grasses.

  A group of bodyguards in black suits were patrolling around the villa, Qin Shenghan cherished his life very much and hired dozens of top-notch bodyguards to protect his safety.

  Qin Hao parked the car and walked directly into the villa.

  The villa's interior decoration is very luxurious, with marble floors, dazzling crystal lamps, and extremely valuable furniture... If one had to use an idiom to describe it, it would be "magnificent and resplendent."

  In the center of the hall, a set of top-of-the-line Italian sofas was placed. At this time, two people were sitting on the sofa, both in their 50s. One man wearing pajamas was Qin Shenghan, and another gray-haired man wearing a gray suit exuded an aura of sharpness, and at first glance, it was clear that he was not an ordinary person.

  "Great Uncle? How did you come?" Qin Hao stared blankly at the white-haired man sitting on the sofa, asking in surprise.

  According to Qin Hao's address, this white-haired man turned out to be the current Vice Governor of the province, Qin Xiangdong, Qin Shenghan's elder brother and also the pillar of the Qin family.

  Qin Xiangdong looked up and glanced at Qin Hao, his expressionless face saying: "Come over and sit down, I have something to ask you."

  "Ah." Qin Hao nodded and walked to the sofa, sitting down opposite Qin Xiangdong with a straight back and a serious expression. As the vice governor, Qin Hao was deeply afraid of his uncle, and every time he faced him, he felt a little nervous.
