Qiao Xi’s eyes narrowed slightly. Before the police came, Sun Chuan had a nervous expression, but now that the police were here, he was no longer afraid. He insisted that she had nothing to do with this matter. Had Xia Mengyan said something to him?

Yuan Shan frowned. “You’re the most suspicious person now. I hope you can cooperate with us…”

“I’m a suspect just because I spoke to the waiter? Just because Mrs. Gu suspects me, you want to arrest me? You want to bully the commoners just because you have power? This is unfair!”

Sun Chuan looked proud. As long as he did not admit it, they had no evidence. Even Gu Zheng had no right to arrest him!

The scene fell into an awkward silence. Gu Zheng smiled casually, and a wave of killing intent instantly burst out, filling the entire lounge. Sun Chuan was so scared that his expression changed. “W-What are you doing?”

Gu Zheng was expressionless, and the color of his eyes was faint. However, for some reason, his expression made one shudder as their hearts thumped violently.

Song Shijing knew Gu Zheng well. The calmer he looked, the angrier he was. Sun Chuan had completely angered him.

Song Shiyu took a few steps forward and said impatiently, “Young Master Sun, you have to be clear about one thing. If our president wants to deal with someone, he doesn’t need evidence nor does he need to resort to formal sentencing. Maybe you can save your life if you go to jail!”

The smug look on Sun Chuan’s face vanished abruptly, and he broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly wanted to look for the police for help, but he was interrupted by Song Shiyu coldly. “Young Master Sun, since you didn’t do anything, what’s there to be afraid of? Our president is indeed worried about Young Madam, but she’s fine now. Why would we make things hard for you?

“Young Master Sun, you don’t admit that you instructed the waiter to poison Mrs. Gu, so we can’t force you to admit it. However, I remember that your family’s company hasn’t been doing well recently. You came to the banquet this time to take this opportunity to get a few collaborations.”

Sun Chuan’s face was pale. His body was stiff, and the blood in his body seemed to have frozen. If looks could kill, he would have died in Gu Zheng’s hands thousands of times. He said in a trembling voice, “This… This has nothing to do with our company. You… You’re forcing me to confess!”

“Young Master Sun, there’s no need for you to confess,” Gu Zheng said coldly. He did not even bother to look at Sun Chuan. To him, Sun Chuan was just an ant. There were many ways to punish him. Since there was no evidence to prove that he was the one who instructed the waiter to poison Qiao Xi, there was no need to torture him.

Gu Zheng retracted his gaze and said gently, “Xi Xi, the banquet has begun. Let’s go prepare.”

Qiao Xi smiled and nodded, and the two of them entered.

Song Shiyu said respectfully to Yuan Shan, “Officer Yuan, I’m really sorry. Our president has decided to withdraw the case. There are some things that we should solve ourselves. There’s no need to trouble you.”

Yuan Shan understood what Song Shiyu meant and left with his team. Sun Chuan’s legs went weak as he knelt on the floor, his eyes filled with horror.

…

Everyone knew Gu Zheng’s methods. He did not have to deal with a situation himself. As long as Song Shijing made a few calls, the Sun family’s company would soon fall into a desperate situation.

Qiao Xi and Gu Zheng were still changing in the inner room when Song Shijing knocked on the door. “President, Sun Chuan’s father, Sun Kai, is waiting to see you.”

The corners of Gu Zheng’s mouth curled up slightly. There were so many people who wanted to see him, so there was no need for him to see all of them. However, he changed his usual demeanor today. His voice was cold and dignified. “Let him in.”

As soon as the door of the lounge opened, Sun Kai scrambled in. The moment he saw Gu Zheng, it was as if he had seen his savior. He knelt in front of him and cried bitterly. “President Gu… President Gu, I beg you to let our Sun family off! The company is already in a difficult spot. Once you make a move, our Sun family will be completely doomed! I really don’t understand how I offended you. Why do you suddenly want to make things hard for me?!”

He originally wanted to attend Gu Corporation’s banquet and get to know a few more big shots in the business world, but he did not expect that before the banquet even started, his phone would explode. At this moment, the company was almost bankrupt.

After asking around, Sun Kai found out that it was President Gu who arranged this. However, he really did not know how he had offended President Gu that he would take revenge on him like this. He quickly found Song Shijing and asked to see President Gu. Even if he had to die, he had to die in peace.

The lounge was silent. After a long time, Mr. Sun heard a sneer above his head. Gu Zheng’s voice was indifferent. “Mr. Sun, do you really want to protect your company?”
