The super rich starts with the self-discipline challenge

Chapter 28 This thing is called gossip?

At noon, Su Wan was going out to eat again, and this time, she didn't bring her secretary.

After Zhong Yun sent her to the restaurant, he called Secretary Lin and said, "I heard that something went wrong with a project in the group. What happened? Will it affect President Su?"

Secretary Lin did not hide the truth from him and told him the general situation over the phone.

A week ago, a major incident happened in the branch. The financial director died in a car accident. When the police investigated, they found that the financial director had huge problems with his financial situation and was suspected of embezzling public funds.

As a result, the branch was investigated, and during the investigation, a big problem was discovered: hundreds of millions of dollars of funds had disappeared from the company's account.

On the same day, the head of the branch, Tian Feng, was arrested and the project was forced to stop.

And this Tian Feng is the younger brother of CEO Jiang An’s ex-wife and has always been his confidant.

With such a big problem, Jiang An is likely to be investigated. Even if no problem is found in the end, he cannot escape blame for such a huge loss.

After hearing this, Zhong Yun knew that Jiang An was really finished.

According to Secretary Lin, this project was driven by Jiang An alone and the group invested huge resources.

He also strongly recommended the project leader.

Now that such a big problem has arisen, he cannot shirk responsibility in any way.

Zhong Yun thought that Luo Siqi might have discovered the problem of the branch company and chose to defect and sell out Jiang An. As for what shameful things his lover did behind his back, he didn't know.

Just now I heard from Secretary Lin that Su Wan is not involved in this project and will not be affected.

This can be considered good news.

"Secretary Lin."

Zhong Yun suddenly said, "Speaking of which, I saw Tian Feng's secretary in the company this morning."

Secretary Lin on the other end of the phone asked curiously, "How do you know Tian Feng's secretary?"

"I don't know him. I heard it from Assistant Luo. OK, I have something else to do. I'll hang up now."

Zhong Yun hung up the phone.

That was all he could say.

If this is considered breaking the rules, then he will admit it.

If you can get rewards tomorrow, there will be a lot of room for maneuver.

……

Su Wan was running around outside the whole afternoon.

Zhong Yunwei paid a little attention and realized that the incident at the branch office had caused a very bad impact. Su Wan had been visiting the company's customers everywhere these days in an attempt to retain these customers so as not to affect the company's business.

The day passed like this.

When it was time for dinner, Su Wan asked him to take her to the restaurant again, and after arriving there, she let him go back by himself.

Zhong Yun returned to the community and met several uncles in police uniforms when entering the elevator. Seeing that they also pressed the button for the eighth floor, he inexplicably became a little nervous.

His first reaction was, could it be that I was the one who caught me?
Then I immediately thought, I haven’t done anything wrong.

In this somewhat uneasy state of mind, we arrived at the eighth floor.

Zhong Yun heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his uncles knocking on the door next door. He secretly laughed at himself for being too sensitive and went to open his own door.

He remembered that there was a young couple living next door. The man looked successful in his career, and the woman was young and beautiful and was a housewife at home.

Although he lived next door to them, he rarely had the chance to run into the couple. In a year, he only met them a few times and never even said hello. They were not familiar with each other at all.

I don't know what happened.

Zhong Yun quickly put the matter behind him, took a shower, then called Ruan Xi and prepared to go downstairs to find her.

As soon as I went out, I ran into a few policemen coming out from next door. I just happened to hear them say, "Your husband's death is still under investigation..."

Someone died next door?

Just as this thought flashed through Zhong Yun's mind, he heard a woman's excited voice, "His car must have been tampered with. It must not be an ordinary car accident..."

"Calm down."

"How do you want me to stay calm? My husband died in a car accident and was suspected of embezzling public funds. Today, a group of creditors came to my house and said that my husband owed more than 30 million yuan. How do you want me to stay calm?"

When Zhong Yun heard this, he couldn't help but take a breath.

He died in a car accident and embezzled public funds...

It can't be such a coincidence, right?

He resisted the urge to turn around and look, and silently said to himself, it's none of my business, so stay out of my business.

Soon, the elevator arrived.

He got into the elevator and pressed the seventh floor.

When the elevator door closed, his scalp was still a little numb, and he cursed in his heart, "You call this gossip? Do you have any misunderstanding about the word gossip?"

Obviously, this was a test for him from the system.

Rather than asking him not to gossip about others, it’s better to ask him to keep the secret.

Zhong Yun couldn't help but sigh, "I'm just a driver. Is it really appropriate for me to know so many secrets?"

…After Zhong Yun reached the seventh floor, he walked to Ruan Xi’s door and knocked.

Soon the door opened and Ruan Xi was wearing a white T-shirt and dark blue jeans.

Her clothes all seemed to be of similar styles, except for the different patterns on the T-shirts and slightly different colors on the pants.

However, at home, she no longer wore the white canvas shoes, but instead wore a pair of slippers.

Zhong Yun took a look at her feet, which were so white and tender, and the foot fetishist was ecstatic.

Seeing Ruan Xi standing quietly in front of him, with a bright light reflected in her clear eyes and a faint smile on her face, he felt relieved.

At this time, Ruan Xi bent down, took out a pair of men's slippers from the shoe rack and placed them in front of him.

Zhong Yun's gaze fell on her collar. When she bent down just now, something hanging on her neck fell out of her collar. It was a key.

The last time I saw someone hanging keys around their neck was when I was in elementary school.

He looked away imperceptibly.

I have to say, she looks quite slim. I didn't expect she is so well developed.

Zhong Yun took off his shoes and put on the slippers. Only then did he notice that the slippers were new and must have been bought specially for him.

"She really is a bit of a germaphobe."

He thought to himself as he walked into the living room and saw that her room was still lit, "Did I disturb you from studying?"

"No."

Ruan Xi took a cup, poured a glass of water and placed it in front of him, then quickly returned to the room, took out a scratch-off lottery ticket and three hundred yuan in cash, and handed them to him, "Here you go."

This is the lottery ticket she picked today, and the prize money she won from yesterday's lottery ticket.

Zhong Yun put the money away, picked up the coin and was about to scratch it when he heard the girl next to him say, "It's the tenth day."

He was stunned for a moment, then quickly remembered his agreement with her.

It’s already ten days?
He almost forgot about it.

At first, he wanted to use this method to make her give up the idea of ​​suicide.

It now seems that the effect is very good.

Ruan Xi's complexion improved, and she smiled again. She was no longer as cold and aloof as before, and became much more popular.

Therefore, people need to communicate with others and make more friends. Only then will they become cheerful and less depressed.

Zhong Yun felt that he was simply a friend of girls.

My niece Wen Xiaoyue used to be very introverted and seldom spoke, but after being influenced by him, she became cheerful.

There is also Su Ziyu, a rebellious girl. After becoming friends with him, she became well-behaved and her grades improved.

Plus Ruan Xi now.

Zhong Yun gently scratched the coating of the lottery ticket, and when he scratched the third one, the prize came out.

Still three hundred yuan.

He looked at Ruan Xi and said, "It seems that I won this bet."

Ruan Xi's eyes were sparkling, as if covered with a layer of mist. She placed her hands on her knees, clenched her fists, and looked a little nervous. She asked in a low voice, "What do you want me to do?"

"It's simple. I want to do it with you—"

Before Zhong Yun could say the word "friend", his cell phone suddenly rang. He took it out and saw that it was his high school class monitor calling. He couldn't help but feel a headache.

Last week, the monitor sent him a message, saying that he was going to get married next month and invited him to attend the wedding. After that, he sent him several more messages in a row.

Now, he even called me.

It would be impolite not to answer.

Zhong Yun walked to the balcony and answered the phone, "Hello."

"I thought you weren't even going to answer the phone. I had already made up my mind that if you didn't answer the phone, I would go look for you. I wanted to see if you were really hung up and didn't reply to the message."

He laughed dryly, "I've just been too busy lately."

"Okay, no need to explain. Anyway, the wedding is on the 20th of next month, you must come. Don't forget, you promised me that you would be my best man."

"I'm really busy and can't spare the time, so I can only send you a red envelope."

"Old Zhong, that happened so long ago, and you did nothing wrong. What are you afraid of? The more you dare not come back, the more people will think you have done something wrong."

Zhong Yun was silent, "..."

"I'm not saying that, but you can't stay away from your hometown forever, right? You have to face it. Okay, I won't force you. Think about it carefully."

Then, the phone hung up.

Zhong Yun felt like smoking a cigarette, but when he touched his pocket he remembered that he had finished that pack of cigarettes in the morning.

He let out a long breath, returned to the living room, sat on the sofa, picked up the glass of water and took a sip. He looked up and saw that she looked a little strange. He asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?"

PS: It’s the end of the month, please give me your monthly votes to get on the new book list.
