Qi Cheng reminded Lin Shanchu and said that he was on the way to her house before hanging up the phone.
Lin Shanchu immediately logged into Weibo.
The hastag #LuShiyuanApologyLetter was trending.
Lin Shanchu tapped on the trending hastag. The pinned trending topic was Lu Shiyuanâs apology letter.
It was a very long apology letter.
It was densely packed with too many words. Lin Shanchu only glanced at the opening line âTo Lin Shanchuâ and âLu Shiyuanâ at the end before checking the comments section.
[There are too manv words. Iâm too lazv to look at them. Can anvone summarize it?]
[TL;DR: Lin Shanchu, sorry, I was wrong.]
[Iâve finished reading it. Itâs well written. Lu Shiyuan should pay more for the public relations officer who wrote the apology letter.]
[If an apology is useful, why do we need the police?]
[It seems that Lu Corporationâs stock is going to hit the lower circuit limit again today. The disgusting man is starting to be scared, so heâs apologizing for the sake of money.]
[After reading through the comments, I realized that I was too naive. A capitalist like Lu Shiyuan will certainly put interests first. Indeed, itâs impossible for him to apologize sincerely.]
No one spoke up for Lu Shiyuan in the comments section.
Lin Shanchu left the comments section with satisfaction.
However, a public apology was indeed not Lu Shiyuanâs style.
The car had entered the parking garage of the residential area.
He Xiangâs phone rang right after she parked the car.
Lin Shanchu turned on WeChat and was about to text Qi Cheng, but she heard He Xiang say surprisedly, âWhat? Why do they want to postpone it?â She turned to look at He Xiang.
It was unknown what the person on the other end of the phone said, but He Xiang did not look well after listening for a while. She hung up the phone after she said, âGot it.â
âWhat happened?â Lin Shanchu asked.
He Xiang held her phone and said frustratedly, âThe lavvyer called to say that
Tang Qidai is sick and hospitalized, so the court hearing will be postponed.â
âWhat illness?â When she met Tang Qidai earlier, she looked quite healthy, but she was a little mentally unstable.
He Xiang shook her head and replied, âHe didnât say, but I heard that sheâs seriously ill and almost died.â
Lin Shanchu remembered that she saw Lu Shiyuan when she came out of the detention center on that day.
Lin Shanchu turned on Weibo again and tapped on the apology letter.
The time it took for Lin Shanchu to walk from the parking garage to her house was enough for her to finish reading the apology letter.
Lu Shiyuan had always been conceited. No matter what, he always had a high and mighty attitude.
All these years, Lin Shanchu had never seen him sincerely apologize to anyone, not to mention a public apology.
More importantly, Lu Shiyuan humbled himself by posting the apology letter, appearing to be full of sincerity.
Even if he hired a public relations officer to write an apology letter on his behalf, with Lu Shiyuanâs character, he would never humble himself so much.
In addition, Lu Shiyuan already knew that she was the one who plotted the affair between him and Xia Jinmeng. He should be itching to skin her alive now.
The appearance of this apology letter was not difficult to guess what happened.
Tang Qidai and Lu Shiyuan had probably laid their cards on the table.
Tang Qidai had lied to Lu Shiyuan for so many years. Fueled by rage, he must have wanted to kill Tang Qidai on the spot.
Once Lu Shiyuanâs temper got the best of him, it was possible for him to lay a hand on her in front of the police.
It also explained why Tang Qidaiâs sudden hospitalization delayed He Xiangâs case.
He Xiang had also finished reading the apology letter.
âSister Lin, this public relations writing is quite good.â
Lin Shanchu leaned lazily on the sofa, propping up her head with one hand. âLu
Shivuan wrote it himself.â
âHuh?â He Xiangâs eyes widened.
The doorbell suddenly rang.
He Xiang quickly went to open the door.
It was Qi Cheng.
âHave you read Lu Shiyuanâs public apology letter?â Qi Cheng asked as soon as he entered the house. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI did.â He Xiang glanced at Lin Shanchu and said mysteriously, âSister Lin said that Lu Shiyuan wrote it himself.â
âItâs probably written by Lu Shiyuan.â Qi Cheng had worked in Lu Corporation for so many years and had some understanding of Lu Shiyuanâs personality, but he definitely did not know Lu Shiyuan as well as Lin Shanchu did.
Since Lin Shanchu said that Lu Shiyuan wrote the apology letter, it was definitely true.
He Xiang looked surprised. She could not believe that Lu Shiyuan had personally written an apology letter.
âNow that Lu Shiyuan has done this, this matter will never end.â Qi Cheng sat down opposite Lin Shanchu and said, âIf this matter doesnât end quickly, it wonât be easy for you to start your next job.â
The people inside the entertainment industry loved laughing stocks, whereas the people outside the industry loved gossips.
For a long time, this matter would definitely be brought up again and again.
âItâs just a small matter.â Lin Shanchu chuckled.
She was only one step away from ruining Lu Shiyuan. Nothing else was important.
Qi Cheng looked up at her noncommittally.
Lin Shanchu slowly explained her next plan, âIâll take a lawyer to Lu
Corporation to audit the accounts in the afternoon.â
âItâs good to audit the accounts!â Qi Cheng agreed. âSuch a clear-cut action is indirectly indicating that you donât accept Lu Shiyuanâs apology. Iâll help you contact a lawyer now!â
âI want to hire Chu Gushen,â Lin Shanchu said with a smile.
Qi Cheng paused and his smile gradually disappeared. Then, he said seriously, âI see that youâve been quite free recently. Since youâre free anyway, you should go and hire a lawyer yourself.â
Although he had some connections in the entertainment industry, Chu Gushen was an outsider and a well-known lawyer. He could not guarantee that he could hire Chu Gushen.
If he failed to hire Chu Gushen, wouldnât he lose face?
Lin Shanchu smiled calmly as she said, âYouâre right.â
Lin Shanchu immediately contacted Chu Gushen.
âMiss Lin.â Chu Gushen had previously helped Lin Shanchu to have her will verified, so it was natural that he had her number.
âLawyer Chu, are you free this afternoon? Iâd like to ask your favor and go somewhere with me.â
Chu Gushen was quiet for a moment. He was probably checking his schedule.
âIâll be free after 2:00 p.m.â
âLawyer Chu, Iâd like you to accompany me to Lu Corporation after 2:00 p.m.â
âMiss Lin, no problem.â
After the call ended, Qi Cheng immediately came over and asked, âDid Chu Gushen agree?â
âYes.â
âThatâs good.â Qi Cheng heaved a sigh of relief.
Lin Shanchu did not expect Chu Gushen to agree so readily.
She was also an old client of Chu Gushen. However, Chu Gushen was famous and busy. All the cases he took on were big cases. To her surprise, he agreed to a small matter like an accounting audit.
Lin Shanchu and Chu Gushen agreed to meet at the entrance of Lu Corporation. When Chu Gushen saw Lin Shanchuâs car, he immediately got out of the car and walked over.
Lin Shanchu opened the car door and was about to get out, but Chu Gushen blocked her way and said, âLetâs chat for a while before going up.â
âHmm?â
Out of habit, Chu Gushen pushed his silver-rimmed glasses up and continued, âI need to understand my clientâs request.â
âMy request is very simple with only two words,â Lin Shanchu said with a laugh.
Chu Gushen said, âPray tell, Miss Lin.â
Lin Shanchu replied, âMake money.â
Speechless, Chu Gushenâs expression froze for a moment before he said, âI understand.. â
