How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?

Chapter 432 - 198: Money Really Can Do Anything_2

Furthermore, even if He Jing hadn’t pulled that stunt, when I found out, I would’ve stood up for Lin Jiayun regardless.

Hearing Gu Heng’s words, Lin Jiayun’s heart felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey. He Jing heaved a sigh of relief when she realized Gu Heng wasn’t angry, but her gaze couldn’t help but linger enviously on the couple huddled close together, as another hit battered her inner limits, nearly breaking through...

And when the others in the office heard Gu Heng say "watching someone bully you," their expressions changed instantly.

Especially Gu Heng’s former boss, Zhang Yang, who couldn’t help the tremor in his heart.

Even the company’s longstanding employees were aware of Gu Heng’s current status and position, and of course, he knew as well.

He just didn’t realize the nature of the relationship between Lin Jiayun and Gu Heng, after all, Lin Jiayun hadn’t had contact with Gu Heng for several months, and he never publicized it either.

Had he known Lin Jiayun was Gu Heng’s girlfriend, he certainly would have resolved the issue in a softer way, rather than showing no mercy as he was doing now, directly threatening Lin Jiayun with the contract matter.

But what’s done is done, there’s no use in regretting, plus he hadn’t pulled any unwritten rules, he had acted strictly according to the contract. Could Gu Heng be bigger than the law, no matter how impressive he could be?

But the face that was owed had to be given, so he immediately said with a smile, "Mr. Gu, it’s been a long time. Why didn’t you inform me before coming back to the company? I would have prepared in advance.

Please, have a seat."

A thick smile appeared on Zhang Yang’s glasses-wearing face, not exactly flattering, but somewhat humble.

Gu Heng couldn’t help feeling some emotion looking at his expression, thinking how things had changed. When he left this place a while ago, this guy didn’t even have the heart to look him in the eye.

But Gu Heng wasn’t interested in settling old scores. He sat down next to Lin Jiayun, then pointed to the others and asked, "Director Zhang, who are these people?"

"Oh, oh.

I forgot to introduce them. These are the leaders from the investment department of Wuyou Media."

He Jing: "???"

Lin Jiayun: "???"

Zhang Yang: "???"

The people from Wuyou Media: "???"

A line of question marks appeared involuntarily in everyone’s heads.

Especially for Lin Jiayun, after a brief confusion, her eyes almost beamed with excitement...

She certainly knew that Gu Heng was standing up for her, but she hadn’t expected him to be so blunt and straightforward, tackling the problem at its root, telling the people from Wuyou Media that their acquisition was a no-go...

So domineering, really too cool...

But the people from Wuyou Media and Zhang Yang, after a brief moment of shock, could barely disguise their discomfort.

Everyone had the same thought,

Sure, Gu Heng is rich, but he’s not a government executive; could he really obstruct their normal business operations?

But this was Galaxy Media, Zhang Yang’s home turf, so the few in charge of the acquisition from Wuyou Media looked to Zhang Yang for an explanation.

At this point, Zhang Yang couldn’t help it.

He did have some conflict with Gu Heng, but it’s not like he had treated him unfairly, right? He didn’t owe Gu Heng a penny when he resigned, and as for exploiting him for over two years, that was simply because Gu Heng lacked sufficient qualifications, giving him the chance to be exploited...

That’s how all bosses operated; he didn’t think he was wrong.

Then with a slightly colder tone, he began, "Mr. Gu, I know you’re a different man now, and I’ve given you respect.
