Chapter 1038 Self-Blame

Chen Li Shu was forcibly taken away from the police station. The interrogation room was left with only Gu Xing Dong and the three hooligans. As for the young comrade, he was also very perceptive and left the interrogation room, even closing the door behind him.

Soon, a series of miserable screams echoed from the interrogation room. The young comrade stood outside, fiercely spitting on the ground and muttering, "Serves you right, you scumbag!"

If it weren't for his special identity, he would have wished he could have taught these people a lesson in Gu Xing Dong's stead!

About half an hour passed, and the screams in the interrogation room gradually stopped. Gu Xing Dong, with a stern face, opened the door and walked out. He looked at the young comrade outside and nodded, "Thank you very much for your help these past few days. Rest assured, give us time, and we will definitely find out who the mastermind is! This way, it won't make your work too difficult."

"Commander Gu, you are too polite. We serve the people. Miss Chen has evidence to prove her innocence, so why should we make things difficult for her? This matter has had too great an impact. You'd better hurry to find the culprit who framed you, otherwise, I'm afraid the online public opinion will cause you trouble." After the young comrade offered his kind advice, he then entered the interrogation room.

He glanced at the scumbags in the interrogation room, their faces unmarked. Then why had they screamed so miserably just now? Could it be that Gu Xing Dong had said something to threaten them?

Just as the young comrade was feeling confused and about to pull them up and put them in jail, the hooligans let out another scream. Lifting their clothes, he saw that their bodies were covered with bruises of various sizes, looking like bumps. However, the young comrade's eyes were sharp. These bruises were all around their ribs. Could it be that Gu Xing Dong had given them internal injuries, the kind that were not visible to the naked eye?

If that were the case, it would be fantastic. He was worried that these hooligans would not behave, and would expose their injuries. After all, they were in the police station, and if outsiders saw them with all these injuries, it would be difficult to explain! Gu Xing Dong's approach had already saved him a lot of trouble.

Meanwhile, at Shu Se Group, the outside was already surrounded by police. The employees were somewhat panicked and uneasy. This situation had been going on for almost the entire day. The sky was already darkening, and it was unknown whether they could leave the premises today!

Just as they were considering whether to resist and fight for an opportunity to leave, a familiar figure appeared before them.

Shen Wei was the first to react. He ran all the way to Chen Li Shu, his face filled with worry, and asked, "President Chen, what exactly is going on? The company..."

Chen Li Shu raised her hand, interrupting him before he could finish. "Shu Se Group may face closure during this period. I will be distributing double the salary for this month as compensation to everyone. When the time comes in the future, I will contact you all for re-employment. For now, there are no major issues, you can leave the company. Shen Wei, stay behind. I have something I want to discuss with you."

"Okay." Shen Wei readily agreed to the matter. To avoid delaying the employees' return home, he even joined the finance department to calculate everyone's salaries.

Watching Shen Wei's busy back, Chen Li Shu nodded with satisfaction. It took about an hour, and soon all the employees' salaries were calculated.

Losing their jobs, their feelings were very complicated. Thinking of how well Chen Li Shu had treated them during this period, they left without any blame, offering her words of comfort instead.

Soon, the crowd dispersed. Chen Li Shu looked at Shen Wei and said very seriously, "I brought you over from the sausage company with the intention of cultivating you to be my right-hand man. However, with this unexpected event, my plan might have to be postponed for a while. I can afford to wait, but I'm not sure about you. You are a very intelligent person, and you can achieve a position in any company. So, the decision to stay or leave is yours. If you stay by my side, your salary will remain the same, but you may not learn any useful knowledge for a very long time!"

"President Chen really thinks too highly of me. What great abilities can a child fresh out of school have? By following President Chen, I have learned a lot of useful knowledge. The valuable lessons President Chen has taught me are something other companies cannot offer. After all, I am just a nobody. Who would treat me with such care in a new company? Therefore, my answer is that I want to stay by your side and continue to serve you!" Shen Wei looked at Chen Li Shu with determination as he spoke these words. His answer was given without any hesitation, which moved Chen Li Shu greatly.

The corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and then she softly said to Shen Wei, "Then you go back to the sausage company and do what you were doing before. When I have sorted out my state of mind, I will bring you along to rebuild the clothing company!"

"Okay." Shen Wei happily agreed to this matter.

After explaining what needed to be explained, Chen Li Shu walked out of the company with a complicated mood.

The police officers outside couldn't help but ask, "Miss Chen, although things are chaotic outside, this matter does not have a direct connection to you. Theoretically, the company can still continue to operate. Why are you closing it? Such a large enterprise closing down just like that, with goods piled up in the warehouse, wouldn't that result in significant losses!"

That's right, the company could continue to operate. But wasn't this disrespect and inaction towards the victims? More importantly, she felt that her mood was a bit restless and agitated right now. Perhaps closing down was a good thing for her at this stage! Thinking of this, the corners of Chen Li Shu's mouth curved upwards slightly, and she smiled wearily, "I have my plans. Thank you all for your hard work in handling things here for me today. You can now put up the seals."

With that, she left the company. As soon as she reached the ground floor, she saw Gu Xing Dong walking towards her with a worried expression.

Walking up to Chen Li Shu, Gu Xing Dong caressed her cheek with concern and said, "Look at your downcast face. Are you still angry about those hooligans? Don't worry, your man has already gotten justice for you."

Chen Li Shu leaned into Gu Xing Dong's embrace and said wearily, "It's nothing. Let's go back to the siheyuan now. I'll have a long holiday ahead, which I can use to spend time with the children."
