Respecting her friend's opinion doesn't prevent Yu Lian from observing the two of them while eating.
Xue Ci sat down next to Jasmine very proactively, but Jasmine ignored him.
With the elders in the family present, the two seemed perfectly at ease, getting along as if nothing had happened that morning.
After breakfast, Yu Lian had to go to work, and He Lin also had things to do.
Logically speaking, He Lin could have easily delegated investment matters to his subordinates and become a hands-off manager. However, her affairs were far from over, and He Lin, being the kind of person who can't sit still, took the initiative to get involved.
Yu Lian would occasionally compare herself to He Lin, and sometimes she couldn't tell whether He Lin was real or fake.
After all, she didn't know whether she was real or not before she started dreaming.
Regardless, she has the power to change the situation right now.
He Lin is a chosen one of heaven, and also the most central figure in this world, the focus of everyone's attention.
Yu Lian never looked down on herself, but she was also clearly aware of the gap between the two of them.
While He Lin's project was progressing smoothly, she was also reflecting on the problems of her own company.
Her willingness to take personal responsibility and her being forced to participate in the project are two different things.
Perhaps it's time to restructure the company, recruit some fresh talent, and cultivate a complete and versatile team.
Similar incidents will continue to occur. The public welfare hospital project has been initially established, with three pilot sites to be set up across the country. If possible, this will be put on the agenda after the pharmaceutical factory issue is resolved.
She needs to perfect the team before that.
It's easier said than done.
Fortunately, she has existing connections and resources, so she might as well make use of them.
It just so happens that this silly man at home is insecure, so sometimes it's necessary to pretend and act a little to avoid him feeling uncomfortable about this or that and complaining all day long.
Yu Lian sighed helplessly. She hadn't realized that marrying He Lin would be so tiring, nor had she noticed that he was the weaker, more insecure one in their relationship.
When I arrived at the office in the morning, Xiao Xu was already waiting for me.
In her hand was a freshly completed investigation report.
"Director Gu had it delivered early this morning. I don't know who he hired, but they acted very quickly."
Yu Lian stared at the open report, stunned by the dense network of relationships.
Whether it's small vendors, grassroots officials, or middle-level officials involved, the final arrow all points to one person.
This person is Jiang Qingke.
Starting from her, the first people she contacted were her own brother and some relatives who could cause her trouble.
Ultimately, these individuals exerted pressure through their superior-subordinate relationships, cultivating a large group of accomplices, a truly lamentable situation.
"Did she know that by doing this, she might never get out again or might be shot?"
Xiao Xu lowered his voice: "Boss, there's a traitor on our construction site, keep your voice down."
Looking at the name Xiao Xu was pointing to, Yu Lian didn't recognize it. But those who could have noticed their movements must be nearby the office.
"Is it the doorman or the cleaning lady?"
"Yes, all of them."
No wonder they could never find the person; it turns out they had spies planted long ago.
"Um, let me make a call and arrange things first. Has Zhuo Heng left?"
"He left a week ago and is now following up on the company's new project."
"Okay. Then make the arrangements. Once you've made them, put this report on the table and have the cleaning lady come in and dust it."
Xiao Xu immediately understood: "Okay, I'll go right away."
Not long after Yu Lian arrived at the office, she led several people out in a grand manner.
The security guard greeted him familiarly, "Where are you headed, Mr. Yu?"
"I'm going to a morning meeting at the government office and won't be back until the afternoon. Thank you for your hard work, sir."
"It's not hard work at all, you can go without worry."
Yu Lian drove off in a grand manner with her entourage.
"Honey, come help me hold the ladder, I need to clean the ceiling."
The cleaning lady's words echoed a few times in the courtyard before the two opened the door and went into the office.
"There was no one in the courtyard, except for a young man in the small house on the east side."
"Look, I'm wiping the door frame."
Soon after, the sound of papers turning over came from inside the door.
"Fifth Brother, isn't that right? I think I'm seeing Director Zhang's name mentioned?"
The old man, whom the cleaning lady called Fifth Uncle, was staring intently at a large relationship diagram spread out on the table.
He looked down little by little, and finally, he plopped down on the ground.
"Honey! What's wrong with you?!"
The fifth son, helped to his feet by his wife, said, "Come on! Come on, I can't go on."
She couldn't understand a word her husband was saying, but she still followed him away.
As he walked into the courtyard, he found a row of people standing at the gate, staring at them with amusement.
"Boss Yu... Boss Yu."
"Sir, you two seem to have a good relationship; you even clean side by side?"
"Haha... Mr. Yu, you're joking. We have a family emergency and need to ask for leave."
As soon as he finished speaking, a noise came from behind him.
Then, Xu Tian, Boss Yu's confidante, came out of the office.
The fifth brother's eyes widened suddenly—the office wasn't big, and the only place that could hide such a large person was the wardrobe in the corner.
His movements began to stiffen, and his eyes became cloudy.
The next second, he fell backward.
Yu Lian did not stop the person who went forward, and walked up herself.
Xiao Xu understood what the boss was going to do just by looking at her actions.
Yu Lian squatted down beside her, and Xiao Xu handed her the glass bottle.
"Grandpa, you're suffering from heatstroke, aren't you? Drink some water right away."
Upon seeing this, the cleaning lady hurriedly pushed them away, shouting, "What are you doing! Murder is punishable by death!"
Yu Lian didn't stop pouring water, and looked up directly at the middle-aged woman in front of her: "Yes, ma'am, murder is punishable by death, and breaking the law will land you in jail."
The old man woke up before even half a bottle of water had been poured in.
"Boss, wipe your hands."
After taking the towel from Xiao Xu, Yu Lian wiped herself clean and threw it next to the gatekeeper.
"Sir, is this... a sign that you don't want to get up? Pretending to faint isn't a good way to evade responsibility. If you don't want to talk to us, then go talk to the police."
As Yu Lian's gaze shifted, three police officers emerged from the crowd at the door, along with three to five other people in special uniforms.
The fifth brother almost fainted this time.
Regardless, they were eventually arrested.
"Because this matter involves too many officials, I have already reported it to the relevant departments."
Gu Ran explained the whole story, and Yu Lian sincerely thanked him.
However, it's not time to relax yet. Before finding direct evidence to arrest Jiang Qingke, the source of the problem, she needs to meet with her in person.
