Chapter 113 The upstart president and the poor gold (9)
====================================
The two carried each other through the crowded crowds, passing through the warm laughter of the family, without taking away a trace of the smoke and fire that filled the world of mortals, and reached the mountain top where they once enjoyed the night view together.
Even though it is a winter night, tonight there are stars shining slightly, embellishing the night sky, as if they have joined the welcome team celebrating the arrival of the millennium.
Standing on the high mountain, stretch your arms, and take a breath of the north wind in winter. The fresh and refreshing feeling can wash away the whole sea of thoughts in an instant.
As Gu Zhong once said, the breeze on the top of the mountain has the magic power to take away troubles.
Ling Yan's state of mind, which was originally buried in sorrow, suddenly became much brighter.
"It's going to be the millennium soon."
Gu Zhong put his hands back into his pockets which were so cold that his knuckles started to become stiff, and sighed thoughtlessly.
"Once in a thousand years is a happy event worth celebrating."
Although to the God who has no concept of time passing, a thousand years is but a moment, but at this time Ling Yan is sincerely feeling joy for the fleeting and rare day in the short life of human beings.
"Time flies so fast, a century has passed in the blink of an eye.
It would have been hard to imagine a hundred years ago, but today we can live in such peace, without gunpowder and war, without struggling for survival. The progress and changes of science and technology can turn everything upside down, and we can do things we never dared to think about.
Just as it is hard for me to imagine a hundred years from now, what the world will be like at that time..."
With admiration for today and present, and longing for the future, Gu Zhong chattered and began to express emotion.
"It will be better..."
Ling Yan said this after seeing many similar time and space for many years.
Human beings are so small, but the development of the world will always follow its proper track. No matter which direction it goes, it is better for the world.
"This is everyone's wish, it will be better in the future—"
However, Gu Zhong knew that she didn't have a future, and the desolate sorrow overflowed from her eyes, making the cold wind blowing up the mountain even colder.
"Speaking of which, there is one more thing."
After a moment of silence, Ling Yan changed the subject again.
When she came today, she actually had more important information to tell Gu Zhong.
"what?"
Xu Shi noticed the rare seriousness in Ling Yan's gentle tone, Gu Zhong turned his head to face her, and listened quietly to the following.
"Some time ago, the driver who caused your car accident confessed—"
"Huh? It's been several years."
Gu Zhong still has deep memories of that car accident that completely changed her life.
"It was indeed not an accident. Someone bought your life and exchanged your life for his father's."
"After so long, has his conscience discovered it?"
"His father's old illness relapsed, and the rescue failed."
"No wonder...Miss Ling is so familiar with the situation, she must have spent a lot of time in the past few years, right?"
"It's true that this hard stone is not easy to grind, but it was finally ground down, it's just—"
Speaking of this, Ling Yan seemed a little embarrassed and paused for a while.
"The mastermind behind the scenes hides too deeply, and he doesn't know who it is."
If you really are someone who is looking forward to the truth with all your heart, I am afraid that you will be extremely disappointed.
But Gu Zhong was not, she just maintained a smile on the corner of her mouth, looked at Ling Yan, flashed her bright black eyes, and solemnly said: "Thank you, Miss Ling."
"Actually, it's a bit of a surprise, but it seems that you don't care about the truth of this matter."
Sighing, Ling Yan swallowed back all the words that he wanted to continue.
"Because the more things you care about, the more you will miss them. Can you understand, Miss Ling?"
"···Feel sorry."
Ling Yan was speechless, only an empty apology.
"Miss Ling, there's no need to be like this. In the end, it's your wish, not to mention that what I want to do has already been achieved, and the past 20 years have been rich and colorful enough, even if it's not me who will continue to witness the new era, it doesn't matter.
And, how do you know that I will not continue to exist in another way? "
Gu Zhong in this life, perhaps because he has owned a lot, is unexpectedly open-minded.
The first New Year's bell rang heavily, penetrating the sky and reaching the other shore.
The two of them turned their eyes to the brightly lit city below the mountain at the same time.
The colorful fireworks shining in the sky began to applaud, drawing a noisy picture in the originally peaceful night sky.
"Happy New Year."
Gu Zhong didn't look back, he just said softly like this, if he didn't pay attention carefully, it should be covered by the sound of fireworks in the whole building.
"Happy New Year."
Ling Yan closed her eyes, and responded softly and gently.
"Ayan, happy new year."
The hand of the person beside her touched her shoulder and gently hugged her into his arms. It was the long-awaited person, the long-awaited embrace.
-
The "Gu Zhong" in this life really left and never appeared again.
When she accepts her true existence from the heart, it is destined that she will merge into the original ending.
Life still needs to continue to suffer, Gu Zhong replaced her, and continued to work hard for the never-ending goal of restoring Gu's family.
The surprise that Ling Yan didn't tell Gu Zhong was that she caught a fox tail.
Maybe it won't be long before we can completely find the person behind the scenes who really brought down the Gu family.
Inspector Zhang who had prevented Ling Yan from interrogating the perpetrator did not just deliberately find fault with Inspector Wang that day, he was also entrusted by others to watch over the traffic accident case.
The perpetrator met him several times and only knew that he was the one who sent the message.
Knowing that Superintendent Zhang was involved in the case, Ling Yan didn't start to scare the snake, but used the convenience of the police station's project to find out all the things he had done in the past few years.
He can be this middleman, so he can't say how honest and honest he is, no matter how careful he is, he will always leave his feet like this all the year round.
With so many evidences of corruption, Ling Yan completely pried his mouth open, one step closer to the truth.
At that time, after Yaozhong's press conference, the real estate project that Ling Yan invested heavily in inland had just started construction, and an ancient tomb was dug out under the foundation, possibly even a group of tombs.
Due to policies and laws, it is definitely impossible to develop any real estate projects in this area, and the process of handing over to relevant departments for disposal is extremely long, and the huge investment cannot be recovered for a while, which is enough to bring down a company.
If Yaozhong hadn't responded well to the Yang family's attack, both parties would have fallen into the predicament of breaking the capital chain at the same time.
Even if it can barely turn around, if there is any wind and rain again, Ling Yan's business empire will not be able to support it, and it will collapse.
The two-pronged attack is too coincidental.
In this world, there is nothing without traces, it just depends on whether it is hidden deep enough, as long as no one can find it, it will be flawless.
But there is another reason, the more you do, the more information clues you will leave behind.
Just like a criminal detective case, a clever criminal only commits a crime once, and the police may find nothing, but if it happens twice or three times, his portrait will gradually become clear, and finally exposed in broad daylight.
In the same way, Ling Yan hopes in her heart that this is Xia Xiange's plan, which means that she will soon be able to catch this cunning fox who is hiding.
Following her own heart, Ling Yan mobilized all her contacts to investigate.
From the beginning of the Gu family's downfall, to Mr. Fang who intends to lure Gu back into the game, to the ins and outs of Gu Zhong's car accident, to the Yang family, and to the suspicious person who planned to sell the land of the cemetery in Maolin Real Estate.
The final answer lies within Yaozhong, the inner ghost.
The inner ghost is an unexpected but reasonable person, Li Lin.
Li Lin devoted himself to the Gu family for more than ten years, and never committed any betrayal when the Gu family was at its lowest point.
Now it seems that this is not out of any loyalty, but just a conservative strategy. If the benefits of betrayal are not great enough, he will only guard his one-acre three-point land and not move at all.
Gu Zhong's existence made him no longer have a place to live, and the new owner only used him as a sharpening stone, realizing that he would be kicked out of the company sooner or later, and Li Lin was shaken under the temptation of the Yang family.
But in the end, it was his daughter—Li Ru who made the balance in his heart completely unbalanced.
The brat who was doted on since he was a child and didn't know how to restrain himself will get into trouble sooner or later.
Li Ru's misfortune was not small, in order to get help from the people behind the scenes, Li Lin completely joined the Yang family's team.
After the incident was exposed, he should have made a plan early and cut his tail to survive.
However, people's hearts are not enough to swallow like a snake, and he still chooses to wait anxiously for the shares in hand and the huge profits after Yaozhong's listing.
The shares were the bait deliberately laid down by Gu Zhong, and no one could escape even if they moved a bit. Li Lin hit the spot like this, and gave Ling Yan the last piece of the puzzle of appointing the person behind the scenes.
When Ling Yan got the real information of Xia Xiange, she was a little unbelievable.
In her imagination, Xia Xiange should have a very high status in this life, so that she can hide herself perfectly, stir up the situation with one hand, and make all kinds of schemes that can overthrow any business empire.
Who would have expected that the mastermind behind the unexpected events would be a small venture capital firm huddled in a third-tier city, and the bag business is what it does most.
It was hard to find out not because of how deep she was hiding, but because Ling Yan had been looking in the wrong direction from the beginning to the end.
She submerges herself among all living beings, she has never been different, she has never been independent, and she has never made great achievements.
It's ridiculous to say that she was able to ruin Gu Zhong's original life so easily, using only the most common means, using strength to fuel the flames.
If there is anything special about it, it is that her calculations are more detailed and precise, the time of the layout is long enough, she is skilled enough, and she has the patience to wait.
Each item is mediocre in isolation, but this is by no means a simple "1+1=2". When combined, it is a business case that can become a textbook.
"Xuanhu, you should never be underestimated."
When he said this, Gu Zhong's face was full of disgust, as if he was forced to pinch his nose and praise someone he hated.
When she was in the God Realm, Gu Zhong had always disliked Xia Xiange. As for the reason, she might not be able to say it herself.
"It's time to meet old acquaintances, I hope this time it will go smoothly."
After carefully folding the documents in his hands, Ling Yan seemed to be ready for battle.
