Gu, Office of the Vice President.

Documents were scattered on the floor, coffee splattered all over the floor in brown liquid, and the coffee cup was smashed to pieces.

Gu Xiu Ze sat in the chair in a daze. He seemed to have not taken care of himself for several days. His face was untidy and his eyes were red.

There was a knock on the office door, and the secretary said cautiously, "Mr. Gu, Mr. Su is here."

Gu Xiu Ze thought it was Su Fubai. His numb eyes lit up slightly and he quickly stood up and straightened his clothes.

As he sorted things out, he said, "Please ask him to go to the reception room and wait for a moment. I'll be right there."

Secretary: “Okay.”

Gu Xiu Ze rushed into the bathroom in the lounge and was about to tidy himself up.

But when he saw his sloppy and haggard self in the mirror, Gu Xiu Ze immediately gave up the idea and even raised his hand to ruffle his hair to make himself look more decadent.

Fu Bai must have heard about the difficulties that Gu was facing, so he came to see him.

Now it's time for him to use the strategy of self-torture.

After staring at the mirror again, Gu Xiu Ze was quite satisfied with his current situation. He made a lifeless expression to the mirror and then dragged his steps towards the reception room.

However, the person waiting in the reception room was not the person Gu Xiu Ze was thinking about, but Su Qinghua.

"What are you here for?"

The moment he saw the person coming, the light in Gu Xiu Ze's eyes completely faded, his brows were furrowed, and he did not hide his impatience at all.

Su Qinghua was also surprised to see Gu Xiu Ze's appearance: "Xiu Ze, what's wrong with you?"

Gu Xiu Ze: "Didn't you watch the news before you came to see me?"

The current situation of the Gu family has been reported on the news for several days. Gu Xiu Ze didn't believe that Su Qinghua had heard nothing.

Su Qinghua really knew nothing. He had been busy enough with his own company's affairs in the past half month, so how could he have the energy to care about other people's companies?

Su Qinghua immediately took out his mobile phone, and without even searching, the news about Gu's company was on the front page of the news website.

More than a month ago, Gu's bid for a large project in the western suburbs of Beijing. This project is Gu's key project this year, and Gu has invested a large amount of money in it.

As a result, a week ago, not long after the construction started, problems arose in the project and it had to be suspended.

At the same time, various scandals at Gu's headquarters were exposed one after another, the most explosive of which was that Gu's chairman, Gu Yuanli, sexually harassed female employees of the company.

Most importantly, these revelations are not groundless rumors, but accusations based on solid evidence.

Some victims even faced the media and revealed the scars that they once did not want to show to others.

Gu Yuanli persecuted female employees of the company for more than 20 years, and there were hundreds of victims.

Some people were forced by him to have improper relationships with him, while others would rather die than surrender, but were banned by Gu Yuanli. After leaving Gu's company, they were unable to work in related industries.

With the evidence being irrefutable, Gu Yuanli had no chance to defend himself. Yesterday, the police came to his house and took him away.

The police came yesterday, and the tax department came today, but they didn’t even investigate and directly took away the president of Gu Group, Gu Boyong, who is also Gu Xiu Ze’s father.

Someone reported Gu's tax problems to the tax department and provided detailed evidence.

After obtaining the evidence, the higher-ups did not make it public, but instead quietly verified the evidence. Only after confirming that it was correct did they arrest the person.

Within two days, the chairman and president of Gu's company were taken away for tea one after another, and the entire Gu company was in a panic.

Gu Xiu Ze intended to conceal the news that his grandfather and father were taken away, but in the morning, some reporters were waiting at the door of Gu's house and took pictures of Gu Boyong getting into the police car.

Gu's company was already at the center of controversy, and now this situation has occurred again, and investors have been selling Gu's shares one after another.

Gu's stock price kept falling, and in just a few days, its market value had evaporated by tens of billions.

In addition, the project in the western suburbs had tied up a large amount of Gu's funds, leaving the Gu family in a tight spot.

Gu Xiu Ze has been treating the company like his own home these days and can sleep less than three hours a day. However, the Gu Group is on the verge of collapse and he can only watch helplessly. No matter how hard he tries, it is of no avail.

Before Su Qinghua came to see Gu Xiu Ze, the secretary just handed him a document for applying for bankruptcy protection.

Only then did Gu Xiu Ze realize that the problems of the Gu Group had become so serious that it was on the verge of bankruptcy.

Everyone in the company was in a panic. Gu Xiu Ze had heard rumors that Gu's company was no longer able to pay salaries. If he didn't come out to appease the people, bigger problems would arise before today.

Gu Xiu Ze had no choice but to contact people to sell their shares in Zhuole Entertainment, pay the employees' salaries, and calm people's hearts.

To be honest, Gu Xiu Ze has been very tired these days.

The company's problems came one after another, leaving Gu Xiu Ze overwhelmed.

The Gu family used to look like a huge behemoth, but it had already rotted inside. If a little external force was applied from the outside, the Gu family would completely collapse.

At this most tiring and helpless time, when Gu Xiu Ze was resting, he was thinking of Su Fubai.

Perhaps, if Su Fubai came to see him and comfort him, he would be able to gain strength to continue moving forward.

In the end, Su Fubai didn't come, but Su Qinghua did.

Seeing that Su Qinghua was still browsing the news, Gu Xiu Ze said impatiently: "What are you doing here today? If you are here for Jin Han, there is nothing I can do about his current situation."

He has already bought shares in Zhuole Entertainment and has completely lost his voice in the entertainment industry. He can't help Su Jinhan at all, and he has no intention of helping.

Su Qinghua wanted to borrow money from Gu Xiu Ze.

But considering the current situation, he should be thankful that Gu Xiu Ze doesn't ask him to borrow money.

He immediately took advantage of the situation and said, "I understand. I'll think of a way to deal with Jinhan's problem."

He stood up and walked to Gu Xiu Ze, patted his shoulder, and comforted him in a half-hearted way: "Everything will be fine."

After Su Qinghua finished speaking, he walked away without even looking back, as if there was a debt collector chasing him.

Country A, late at night.

Fu Baigang and Gu Jixing finished a sweaty exercise.

Both of them were satisfied physically and in good spirits, and neither of them wanted to sleep.

Fu Bai reached out from beside the pillow, picked up his cell phone, and read the domestic news.

Recently, the scandal involving the Gu family has occupied the front pages of major platforms. When Fubai opened Weibo, he saw that another victim had come forward to accuse Gu Yuanli of sexually assaulting her for five years.

Fu Bai just took a quick glance and then exited Weibo.

He suspected that Gu Jixing's hatred for the Gu family and his destruction of the Gu family were related to these things.

So Fu Bai never talked about this topic in front of Gu Jixing.

"Don't want to play anymore?" Seeing Fu Bai open his phone and then put it away immediately, Gu Jixing reached out and hugged him in his arms, and kissed the top of his head.

Fu Bai muttered, "I'm sleepy. I need to go to sleep."

He squeezed himself into Gu Jixing's arms, domineeringly occupying Gu Jixing's entire embrace.

Gu Jixing patted Fu Bai's back gently, his dark eyes staring at the ceiling.

After a long while, he slowly said, "My mother joined Gu's company right after graduating from college and became Gu Yuanli's secretary."
