Chapter 455 - 455: Instigation
Lu He rubbed the space between her eyebrows, worried about the company’s future. After Lu Zhen left, the company’s operating income plummeted. In the past, when Lu Zhen was in the company, Lu He lived a life of counting money every day.
In order to further expand the company, he also developed many new business types.
However, after Lu Zhen left, those new businesses were like a bottomless pit that burned money. Soon, he had almost exhausted all the capital he had accumulated. Lu He could not bear to cut off those new businesses. In his opinion, those businesses could earn money in the future. It was just that he had invested more in the early stages.
Therefore, in the past two months, Lu He had been gritting his teeth and persevering. The company was tight on funds, so he thought of all kinds of ways to save money from the artists in the company, force the artists to work hard, and squeeze the interests of the newcomers.
It was also because he had been busy recently that Lu He ignored Lu Rou’s matter. However, he did not expect Lu Rou to cause such a huge trouble.
On the phone, Lu Rou was still crying. Lu He was a little annoyed and comforted her perfunctorily before hanging up.
Not long after Lu He hung up, the police found Lu Rou and took her away.
Lu Rou arrived at the police station and was interrogated. At first, when the police asked her questions, she pretended not to know anything and wanted to get away with it. A female police officer knocked on the table solemnly. “Lu Rou, get this straight. We must have conclusive evidence to bring you here. I advise you to be honest. Don’t treat the police as fools.”
Lu Rou bit her lip. Seeing that she could no longer hide the matter, she changed her words. She expressed that she really hated Lu Zhen, so when she saw that Erin didn’t like Lu Zhen either, she had the idea of instigating Erin to hurt Lu Zhen. “But I was just saying. Who knew that Erin would take it seriously? I didn’t participate in this matter. You can’t falsely accuse me!”
The policewoman looked at Lu Rou coldly. “Instigating others to commit a crime should be punished according to your role in the joint crime. Don’t think that you don’t have any responsibility.”
After the interrogation ended, someone quickly told Song Jia the results of the intprrn?atinn
Song Jia said calmly, “Got it.” He hung up the phone and looked up. He saw Bei Mu lying lazily on the sofa with his legs hanging outside. He did not look like a young man at all. Song Jia was speechless for two seconds before saying, “I’ll transfer the funds for the research project to you. You can go back.”
Hearing Song Jia’s words, Bei Mu sat up unhappily. “What do you mean? I didn’t help you for money. Are you going to dismiss me like this?”
Song Jia glanced at Bei Mu indifferently. “Really? Then I won’t give you the money.”
Bei Mu’s expression turned into one of frustration and pity in a second. “No, no, no. I’m a layman. I’m only doing this for money!” With that, Bei Mu looked at Song Jia curiously. “Old Song, you’ve done so much for Lu Zhen. Hasn’t she been so touched that she wants to marry you? Are girls so difficult to woo nowadays? But Lu Zhen is really a big star. It’s normal for her to be difficult to woo. Anyway, hurry up. Jiang Kai and 1 are still waiting to eat your bachelor meal.’
Song Jia was a little speechless. “She’s an employee of my company. It’s only right for me to help her. What nonsense are you thinking?”
Bei Mu lamented in a strange tone, “Oh, employees? Then you’re really a good boss. Why don’t I go to your company to work? I think you treat your employees better than you treat me.”
Song Jia narrowed his eyes and his gaze stopped on Bei Mu. Bei Mu smelled danger and immediately sat up from the sofa. “Alright, alright. I won’t disturb your work then. Goodbye!’
After Bei Mu left, Song Jia retracted his gaze.
In fact, Song Jia didn’t want to ask Bei Mu for help at first. It was just that he had called Jiang Fei at Bei Mu’s research base that day. The two of them had talked about Du Wei. Bei Mu happened to hear it and casually said that he could help check Du Wei’s phone records.
Song Jia had looked for Bei Mu to do something similar before, but he knew that such a thing was illegal, so he didn’t want Bei Mu to continue doing such a thing.
“You don’t think I’ll be found out, do you? You underestimate me! Besides, it was that Du guy who lied first. I’m just checking his phone records. It’s not like I’ll do anything to hurt others or harm society. Of course, the fee for my actions is not cheap. I’ve been developing a testing model recently. I’m a little tight on funds. Hehe, you know..”
