Chapter 40
The next day, before Cheng Peng called, Han Rui's elder brother called first, and asked anxiously, "Xiao Rui, is something going to happen to Gu Chengjun?"
Han Rui was taken aback, "Why do you say that?"
What's going on here?Cheng Peng said so, and the elder brother also said so, did something really happen to Gu Chengjun's company?
"If you read the financial news, his company's stock price has been falling for several days in a row. Everyone is spreading rumors that his brother-in-law was sentenced to prison in shuanggui, and he may suffer as well."
No wonder Cheng Peng said those things yesterday!
Han Rui comforted his elder brother a few words, they can't control or help with the affairs of Gu Chengjun's company.The Han family, just don't make trouble for Gu Chengjun.
However, Han Rui felt a little strange. Gu Chengjun's brother-in-law Zhang Weimin had already been sentenced years ago. If Gu Chengjun was going to be unlucky because of Zhang Weimin, shouldn't he be unlucky earlier?How did it last until this time?
The eldest brother's phone didn't hang up for a long time, and Cheng Peng also called. He first apologized for what happened last night, but then begged Han Rui, hoping that Han Rui would think about it and stay with him.
Han Rui didn't answer his question, but only said, "Where did you know about me and Gu Chengjun?"
Cheng Peng was silent for a while on the other end of the phone before saying, "It's Han Zhi. He was tortured badly, so he came to ask me for help. We were classmates in elementary school before."
"He took the initiative to tell you?"
Cheng Peng was silent for a while before he said, "You are the wallpaper on my phone, and he saw it. Xiao Rui, is what Han Zhi said true?"
"I don't know what Han Zhi told you." Han Rui felt that there was no need to hide it anymore, "I am indeed with Gu Chengjun. As for whether it is a nurturing or not, you can ask Han Zhi how much he owes Gu Chengjun. ?He raped a girl, but he didn’t expect that the girl’s family had some background. He went to ask Gu Chengjun for help, and Gu Chengwei spent 500 million yuan to settle the matter. Later, he and Sun Xiu asked me for 5000 yuan If Gu Chengjun refused to give it, he threatened us, saying that he would expose us."
After hearing this, Cheng Peng was silent for a while, and finally said, "I inquired about Han Zhi's matter, and the result of my inquiries is that the district chief of XX District is punishing him. I heard that he sold the house and took the money to ask for forgiveness." , to no avail."
"Yes. The district chief is the uncle of the girl he raped."
Cheng Peng sighed, stopped talking about Han Zhi, and just asked, "Xiao Rui, do you love Gu Chengjun?"
Han Rui still didn't answer his question directly, but said, "Cheng Peng, I can't agree to your request. You helped me before, and I am very grateful to you! I hope to have the opportunity to repay you in the future."
After Han Rui hung up the phone, he thought about it and called Gu Chengjun again.Unfortunately, it rang for a long time and no one answered.
In the past few days, maybe Gu Chengjun was too busy or in a bad mood, so he didn't call him.He finally took the initiative to call once, but no one answered.
Han Rui then called Li Tang again. After waiting for a long time, no one answered.
Is something wrong?Han Rui became anxious, or was he just in a meeting?
At lunch time, Li Tang called back.It turned out that they really had been meeting.Moreover, today Gu Chengjun has to go back to China to deal with some matters, and he may have to go back for a few weeks.
Han Rui breathed a sigh of relief, since this is the case, there is nothing to worry about, as long as people are fine!
The next day, when Gu Chengjun arrived in the imperial capital, he called him, and what he said was similar to Li Tang.
Gu Chengjun's voice sounded very tired. For the first time, Han Rui felt sorry for this person and wanted to talk to him a few more words, but he also heard Gu Chengjun's assistants talking on the phone. They had a lot of things to do, so they had to tell him to take care of his health, and then died.
Now that Gu Chengjun has returned to China and Xiao Zhe is still at school, Han Rui plans not to go to London for now, and stay in Reading to work hard.
In this way, I have been busy for a few weeks, and my life is almost the same every day, work, work, work.
During this period of time, Gu Chengjun seldom called. Even if he did, he would hang up after saying a few words.
Han Rui is not a woman, so she doesn't care about these small details, as long as she's okay!
However, this day, Han Rui took the cup to the tea room, and when he reached the corner, he heard someone talking, "No way! Does he really like men?"
Han Rui stopped in his tracks and listened to what they continued.
"Probably! I haven't seen him have a girlfriend anyway."
"There are so many people in our company who don't have girlfriends, why do you say that about him?"
"Then he was taken care of by a man?"
"I really can't tell, he looks so handsome, but..."
……
Han Rui turned around and returned to his work station, continuing to write on the film.
When it was his turn to give a report at the afternoon meeting, most of his colleagues listened carefully, and when they had any questions, they asked them as they should. They treated him no differently than usual.
Just a few days later, a few colleagues from other places came over on a business trip, and they got together with some marketing colleagues and whispered.When Han Rui passed by them, one of them said "disgusting homosexuality".
In the afternoon, when discussing issues, when it was Han Rui's turn to speak, those few all laughed strangely.
Zhang Yue suddenly threw the folder in front of them, and sneered, "Don't want to hear it? Get out if you don't want to hear it."
Those few people were startled at first, and then the person who once said "disgusting homosexuality" stood up and snorted coldly, "You women, you only know how to look at faces. Do you know that he is gay?"
Zhang Yue doesn't like this colleague very much. He has extremely poor ability and problematic work attitude.That's fine, but to those colleagues with strong abilities, this person also speaks all kinds of sour words. He can't see that others are better than him, and he doesn't know how this person came from overseas?
So he said, "What a loser, I don't work hard, but I still envy others who are tall, handsome and capable."
"Even if I'm poor and short," the man said, patting his chest, "it's better than being taken care of and suppressed by others."
Zhang Yue wanted to go back, but Han Rui suddenly said, "Did I affect you? Did I affect this project?"
The man was dumbfounded, and Zhao Zhen also put the folder in his hand on the table, and said to the man, "I guess you don't like this place either, I will talk to your leaders in China and let you Go where you want to go."
After finishing speaking, he looked at the others, "Is there any place you want to go too?"
If he is kicked out of a project, he probably won't be able to stay in the company anymore.Those people quickly lowered their heads, pretending to read the information.
Only the person who had hated Zhang Yue was left, and he left the meeting room with a ashen face.
Zhao Zhen looked at Han Rui again, and said nonchalantly, "Continue!"
During dinner at night, Zhang Yue was still angry and scolded, "A group of SBs, if they have time to gossip about others, why don't they improve their professional level?"
Han Rui has always admired Zhang Yue, and she stood up to defend herself this time, so he touched her with a water glass, "Thank you!"
Zhang Yue also took the cup and touched it, and after glancing at him, he said, "Otherwise, you will suffer a bit, and we two can make do with it."
Han Rui knew she was joking, so he laughed, "If you want to do this, you will be at a disadvantage."
Zhang Yue drank the water in the glass in one gulp, "MD, good man, he either likes a man, or is someone else's husband, can you save some for us?"
Knowing that she was joking, Han Rui also smiled, took out his phone and wrote a WeChat message, Xiao Yang, it's up to you whether you can impress the goddess.
Gu Chengjun has been back to China for three weeks and has no intention of coming to London.Han Rui watched the financial news, and it seemed that some of Gu's shareholders were selling their stocks one after another.
After reading several financial commentators' comments about Gu's, Han Rui thought about it, logged into the company's ticketing system, and booked a flight back to the Imperial Capital on Friday.
Before returning to the imperial capital, he went to school to see Xiao Zhe, and he was relieved when he saw that the child was doing well and hadn't been affected in any way.
Xiao Zhe seemed to know that something happened to the Gu family, but he was not in a hurry to be afraid. Instead, he comforted Han Rui, "If you go bankrupt, you will go bankrupt! I will change schools at worst. As long as Dad and you are doing well, I don't care about the rest."
Han Rui stepped forward to hug Xiao Zhe, and patted him on the back.Gu Chengjun is three points luckier than others to have a sensible son like Xiao Zhe.
When he arrived at the imperial capital, Han Rui went straight back to Gu's house.But Gu Chengjun was not there, only Sister Zhu and a few security personnel were at home.
Han Rui cooked a table of meals, and it was after one o'clock in the evening that Gu Chengjun entered the living room with a haggard face.
Seeing Han Rui, Gu Chengjun was taken aback, and asked in surprise, "Xiao Rui, why are you back?"
Han Rui smiled, pulled him to sit down at the dining table, and made him a bowl of soup, "Eat something first. Let's talk later."
Gu Chengjun took a deep look at him, then finished the soup in one gulp, and said, "Let's chat!"
"..." Han Rui, "Go take a bath first! We'll talk about it later."
Gu Chengjun followed him upstairs, took a shower mechanically, put on a bathrobe casually, and then sat on the chaise lounge, staring up at Han Rui with no expression.
Han Rui didn't understand what Gu Chengjun meant. Why did this person have such an expression?
He took out a card from his wallet and handed it to Gu Chengjun, "There are 100 million here."
Gu Chengjun looked at him coldly, "You want to leave?"
Han Rui was a little stunned, "Why?"
Gu Chengjun seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, his expression softened a lot, and he asked, "Then what does this money mean?"
Han Rui sat down beside him and said in a low voice, "I can't help you with your company's affairs. But if one day, you are really like what the news said. Then I will take care of the family, you and Xiao Zhe .This money is to tell you that I can afford to support you. However, the standard of living may drop by more than a dozen grades."
After hearing this, Gu Chengjun was a little surprised at first, then seemed a little annoyed, and finally remained expressionless and silent for a long time before saying, "It's not that far yet."
Maybe it was because of fatigue, maybe it was because he was in a bad mood, Gu Chengjun didn't do anything at night, but fell asleep with his arms around Han Rui.
Han Rui was lying on the bed but couldn't sleep, did he hurt Gu Chengjun's self-esteem?
Han Rui was taken aback, "Why do you say that?"
What's going on here?Cheng Peng said so, and the elder brother also said so, did something really happen to Gu Chengjun's company?
"If you read the financial news, his company's stock price has been falling for several days in a row. Everyone is spreading rumors that his brother-in-law was sentenced to prison in shuanggui, and he may suffer as well."
