After Lin Yi and Chen Lin left, Wang Yan drove the other colleagues out of the office and kept Li Chao in her office.
"Does it still hurt? Do you need to go to the hospital?"
"It’s much better now, thank you for your concern, Director Wang."
"Why did you get into a fight with him? You should have called security directly."
"I had learned taekwondo for a few years before. I didn’t expect his reaction to be so quick."
"Alright, don’t worry about this matter anymore. I’ll call the police now and show him a lesson."
Li Chao’s eyes flickered as he recalled the movents and expressions of the two just now.
On the surface, it’s a superior-subordinate relationship, but secretly, it might be quite ambiguous.
If he gets arrested, Chen Lin definitely won’t sit by idly.
She might even co to beg , I need to take advantage of this opportunity.
"That works, then call the police." Li Chao said:
"He’s too arrogant, we definitely can’t let him off easily."
"Alright, I happen to have a friend in this area. I’ll call the police right now."
After speaking, Wang Yan dialed the ergency number.
Afterward, Wang Yan took Li Chao to another office and called for the cleaning and logistics staff to clean up the ss.
Ring ring ring—
At this ti, Wang Yan’s phone rang.
Seeing the caller, Wang Yan’s expression imdiately beca serious.
The caller was nad Zheng Shaolong, also one of Wang Yan’s investors.
"Boss Zheng."
"What are you saying? You want to withdraw the investnt?!"
"Could you explain the reason to ?"
"Alright..."
The other party quickly hung up the phone, and Wang Yan slumped onto the sofa, looking extrely distressed.
Li Chao also noticed sothing was wrong.
"Director Wang, what’s the matter?"
"Boss Zheng from Hua Investnt said they want to withdraw, no longer investing."
Hearing this, Li Chao was stunned.
"He is our third-largest investor. If he withdraws, the funding chain could easily break."
"I also don’t know why he wants to withdraw. We had a good talk yesterday, but he decided today to pull out."
"Didn’t he say anything over the phone?"
"No, he just told to think for myself."
Both of them fell into deep thought. The company’s developnt has been thriving recently, with no strategic errors. There should be no reason for withdrawal.
The reason given by the other party is also very odd and simply doesn’t make sense.
Ring ring ring—
Just then, Wang Yan’s phone rang again. Li Chao leaned over and saw it was from President Ma of Yunshang Investnt.
Also the company’s second-largest investor.
"President Ma." Wang Yan answered the phone.
"You also want to withdraw?"
Upon hearing this news, Wang Yan’s heart sank halfway.
This ti, the other party didn’t even have much to say, just a simple notification before hanging up.
Both sat lifelessly on the sofa, feeling at the lowest point.
Ring ring ring—
The phone rang once more.
Wang Yan got a fright.
"President Zhang from Red Mountain Capital."
"He’s our largest investor. He wouldn’t want to withdraw too, would he?"
"I don’t think so. A few days ago over dinner, he even ntioned wanting to increase the investnt." Wang Yan said:
"Just as well, I can use this opportunity to talk about this matter."
Wang Yan answered the call and put the call on speaker.
"President Zhang, what a coincidence, I was just about to call you."
"What’s the matter?"
"Didn’t you ntion at dinner a few days ago about increasing the investnt by 50 million? I wanted to ask how the internal research is going."
"I’m not planning to invest more for now. The plan to invest 80 million last month is also on hold for now." Zhang Lei said:
"I called to tell you about this matter too."
"You also want to withdraw?"
"Did Boss Zheng and President Ma also call you? These two are quite quick."
Hearing this, Wang Yan and Li Chao suddenly ca to a realization.
They finally understood that the other party had pre-arranged all of this.
"President Zhang, I still don’t know what happened until now. The company is doing very well; there’s no reason for withdrawal."
"Your company’s situation is indeed not bad, but you’ve offended soone you shouldn’t have. In this circle, you need to keep your eyes open when doing business, you’re just starting, don’t get too arrogant."
After speaking, Zhang Lei hung up the phone without revealing any information related to Lin Yi.
The two of them collapsed on the sofa, seemingly dumbfounded, unable to speak for a long ti.
They finally understood why the top three investors wanted to withdraw; it was because they offended soone they shouldn’t have.
But the problem is, they haven’t done anything, how could they have offended soone?
"Director Wang, have you t any special guests these days?" Li Chao asked nervously.
"I’ve been in the office all these days, where would I have t any special guests?" Wang Yan said:
"And those presidents in the circle, I can recognize almost all of them, definitely wouldn’t offend them."
"I think so too, but we didn’t do anything, how could we have offended anyone?"
Knock knock knock—
At that mont, there was a knock on the door, and Wang Yan’s secretary walked in from outside.
"Director Wang, the police are here. They said they are here to investigate the incident of the beating just now."
"Okay."
Wang Yan got up and said to Li Chao:
"If there’s nothing else, you can go and handle your work. I’m going to see a friend."
"Understood, Director Wang."
Wang Yan walked out of the office and t the arriving police in the reception room.
"Brother Zhang, you’re here."
"What happened? Soone dared to beat soone in your office?"
"A car dealership salesman, truly outrageous, dares to do anything."
"Is there any surveillance? Do you know what the other person looks like?"
"Yes, I’ve already asked the logistics to bring it up. I’ll have them bring over the surveillance video."
"Alright."
Later, Wang Yan called over the logistics staff and brought over a laptop.
"Brother Zhang, it’s this person in the video."
Seeing the person in the video, Zhang Tong was taken aback.
After carefully identifying, he asked:
"Is this person nad Lin Yi?"
"It seems that’s the na, could it be you know him?"
Zhang Tong’s face suddenly turned grim.
He had only heard about Lin Yi.
This person had been a police officer and a firefighter, and had received several First-class rits, often highlighted as an exemplary case.
Moreover, it seed he had a very special identity behind him, one they couldn’t reach.
Aside from that, from the mouths of leaders, he learned that this person was not ordinary.
And he wasn’t as simple as he appeared on the surface.
Upon this thought, Zhang Tong understood this kind of behavior.
Beating soone in the office is indeed a bit outrageous, not sothing an ordinary person would dare to do.
If it were him, it seed just fine.
"Besides beating soone, did he say anything else to you?"
"He also threatened , saying that reporting to the police was courting death. I consider it a threat, it’s punishable by law."
Zhang Tong shivered, indeed sothing he could do.
"What he said was not a threat," Zhang Tong said:
"Take my advice, don’t pursue this matter any further."
