Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 668: 668 Understand

At this moment, the door was knocked on again. A minute later, Secretary Qian came in, followed by Cao Minzhu.

Yuanyuan didn’t even give him a glance, but soon she would surely make him reap what he had sown.

Cao Minzhu came in without looking at Yuanyuan. At first, when he heard the news, he was furious, but then he thought it through. This wasn’t necessarily a bad thing. No matter what was revealed, they could claim it was extracted through torture, and then they only had to deny Huo Zhiqiang’s previous testimony.

”Old Cao, how do you have time to come over?”

”I’m here to report. Young people these days really have no respect for the law, even forcibly taking away the prisoner. When someone intervened, they directly used force. This is how allies should be treated, not enemies.”

”Old Cao, don’t be angry yet, sit down and have some water.”

Secretary Qian poured a cup of tea for each of the two leaders and also a glass of water for Yuanyuan.

Yuanyuan looked squarely at Secretary Qian now. He really wasn’t just anyone; she hadn’t been here many times, yet he remembered her habits. Such people are frightening.

She nodded in thanks but didn’t speak and instead took out paper and a pen from her bag.

She didn’t take Cao Minzhu to heart at all.

”Big leader, this is not acceptable. Although Su Yuanyuan has made contributions, her actions are illegal and against the rules. We cannot cover for her, otherwise others will follow her example, and then what use are laws and discipline?” Cao Minzhu couldn’t stand Yuanyuan’s leisurely demeanor.

Having been directly called out, Yuanyuan used her Divine Sense to interfere with Cao Minzhu’s consciousness.

Yet, she didn’t say a word and continued to calmly write something on her paper.

This Cao Minzhu is truly disgusting. Having witnessed many things, today will reveal his true colors.

What needed to be known was already known, so Yuanyuan gave Cao Minzhu a suggestion. This person’s will was really not firm; he quickly lost his autonomous awareness. It was quite surprising.

The big leader looked helplessly at Cao Minzhu, ”Old Cao, drink some water. Don’t rush; what can’t be resolved?”

”Drink? Stop pretending to be sincere.”

Yuanyuan couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

The big leader’s expression was quite remarkable, yet he still shot Yuanyuan a glare. The girl is truly fearless.

”You’re just a hypocrite; don’t think I don’t know about your situation. You shouldn’t be proud now.

Soon, I will bring you down, because when problems arise, you always muddle through without any ability.

And that Wan Zhong is truly worthless. He can’t handle anything.”

The new big leader seemed to have understood something. He signaled to Secretary Qian, who quickly pulled out paper and pen to begin documenting Cao Minzhu’s words.

”Old Cao, what do you mean?”

”What do I mean? Let me tell you, you better wise up. Give up your seat to me quickly, or your life won’t be secure.

You’re a hypocrite, and Zeng Zhenqing is just your loyal dog. You don’t even trust him; you never planned to save him, did you?”

Yuanyuan knew she shouldn’t be here now. But since there was information about Tan Shaoting later, she had to endure sitting here listening.

The big leader’s face had turned green with suspicion towards Zeng Zhenqing. Thus, he hadn’t dealt with the matter. But being told directly like this enraged him.

”Cao Minzhu, do you know what you’re saying?”

”Don’t shout at me here, don’t think your position is secure, haha, haven’t you become my defeated opponent?

Now it’s up to me when you live and when you die.”

Cao Minzhu was now completely immersed in his own delusions. The dream Yuanyuan had woven for him was too real, crafted entirely according to his thoughts, so he fell deep into it.

Now he felt victorious, being placed above others, and naturally, his words lacked restraint.

Yuanyuan watched as the big leader Xu Guozhi’s face turned ashen.

”Don’t be upset. All the capable people around you are gone. Do you think Tan Shaoting’s incident could be managed by Hou Wanzhong alone? Hahaha, you lost Tan Shaoting, then you lost Zeng Zhenqing, and also helped me get rid of Hou Wanzhong.

You’re truly my divine helper. Look around; all capable people are gone from your side. It’s only natural you can’t win against me.”

What remains unclear now? Xu Guozhi gritted his teeth. A fine job indeed. His excessive caution unexpectedly became their reason to underestimate him.

”Xu Guozhi, rest assured, I won’t leave any of those who helped me against you, unlike your hypocrisy. Betray me once, and I’ll never use you again. I won’t leave any future troubles for myself.”

Yuanyuan thought enough was enough. She knew those people herself, but for the future, she decided not to let the big leader know.

So she released her control over Cao Minzhu. Naturally, there was nothing more to say.

Xu Guozhi saw that the person who was just swaggering a moment ago suddenly wilted like an eggplant struck by frost.

Although suspicious inside, this was not the time to be entangled in this matter.

He glanced at Secretary Qian and saw him nodding. He knew Cao Minzhu’s words had been recorded, so he wasn’t worried.

He couldn’t act recklessly as they did. He needed to consider multiple aspects and balance relationships.

Cao Minzhu still hadn’t recovered, shaking his head continuously. He felt very uncomfortable, unable to relieve it, so he kept pressing his temples with his hands.

He was puzzled as to why he suddenly had a headache.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Xu Guozhi glaring at him and was quite puzzled about why this self-righteous guy suddenly confronted him so openly today. Before, he had pretended to be very good to him.

”Leader, I have a headache now, I should leave. However, the matter with Yuanyuan must be resolved. Letting a young brat act so wildly is unacceptable.”

Xu Guozhi didn’t say a word, just quietly looked at Cao Minzhu.

Such a situation should never happen. What on earth happened just now?

Cao Minzhu felt uneasy but still stood up.

”Wait, I want to know how you harmed Tan Shaoting.” Yuanyuan suddenly spoke.

Cao Minzhu ignored her, feeling that talking to her was beneath his dignity.

Yuanyuan wasn’t going to indulge him. She walked directly to his side and stared straight at him.

”Move aside, what are you?”

Yuanyuan showed no sign of anger on her face, still staring at him unblinkingly. Hmph, all those who participated in this will have to spend the rest of their lives unable to fend for themselves.
