However, although Ji Gao was not panicking, in order not to be pestered by Jiang He, he still agreed on the surface. “Alright, I’ll try my best to help you resolve it. However, I can’t guarantee that I can successfully resolve it.”

Regarding Ji Gao’s uncertainty, Jiang He didn’t pay any attention at all. After all, Ji Gao was the only person who agreed to help her resolve it. Now, he was her only life-saving straw.

With Ji Gao’s help, her company would not go bankrupt and she would not be mocked by her archenemy, Zhao Hong!

After Ji Gao and Jiang He left the living room and went upstairs, Gu Xiao came out of the kitchen with fruits.

Jiang He did not expect Ji Gao to not help her, but Gu Xiao did. After all, she did not forget that Ji Gao valued benefits more than anything else.

Now that the situation was good for him, even Gu Xiao felt that the netizens unanimously felt that the problem was with Jiang He. It was possible that Ji Gao had guided them in this direction.

Ji Gao could even push out the person he had slept with for so many years to take the bullet. This was really too terrifying.

Gu Xiao was about to go upstairs when she heard the door being pushed open. She turned around and saw Ji Chen coming out of the storage room.

The storage room was not soundproof, so Ji Chen must have heard what the conversation just now. With his high IQ, he could definitely guess that Ji Gao was just saying that to deal with Jiang He.

Gu Xiao glanced at Ji Chen’s indifferent expression and asked, “Aren’t you going to remind Jiang He that Ji Gao could be lying to her?”

Hearing this, Ji Chen’s expression did not change at all. He just replied, “She is an adult and has her own ability to distinguish. There is no need for me to worry about her. Besides, she did not ask me for help. Why should I get involved?”

Gu Xiao did not expect Ji Chen to say this. She found it interesting, so she asked, “Would you help Jiang He then if she asked you for help?”

“No,” Ji Chen replied cleanly. His expression finally changed at this moment. He frowned and said, “We only need to chase Ji Yao away and the netizens will naturally change their attitude. However, she kept rejecting such a simple matter and wanted Ji Yao to stay. She had asked for it.”

After hearing Ji Chen’s words, Gu Xiao lowered her eyes and asked, “Don’t you like Ji Yao?”

“Why should I like someone who has been scheming since young?” Ji Chen threw a strange look at Gu Xiao when he said this.

Ji Chen could feel Ji Yao’s hostility towards him since he was young. He understood after thinking for a while that she wanted to monopolize his parents’ love.

Although he had figured this out, Ji Chen did not care. After all, he had been indifferent to the people around him since he was born, and Gu Xiao was the only person who interested him.

Thinking of this, Ji Chen glanced at Gu Xiao and said, “I heard that you asked for 900 million from my father. Are you planning to invest it?”

Gu Xiao was not surprised that Ji Chen knew about it. After all, this was such a large sum of money so anyone who was paying attention would definitely know about it.

Facing Ji Chen’s question, Gu Xiao lowered her eyes, then looked up at him and said calmly, “This should be my secret. I don’t have to answer, right?”

Ji Chen did not mind. He nodded and said, “Of course, it is up to you whether you want to tell me or not.”

A few days later, more and more people were boycotting the company online. The company’s situation was getting worse and worse. Jiang He looked more and more haggard day by day. In the end, she could not help but ask Ji Gao, “Did you do anything to help my company or not?”

“Of course I did.” Ji Gao replied without hesitation when he was questioned by Ji Gao. Even though he had not done anything during this period of time, he spoke as if had done a lot.

When Jiang He saw this, she asked in confusion, “But if you did something, why didn’t I sec any changes?”

Ji Gao explained, “Because there are too many people who are boycotting. Even if I send people to resolve it, they will all cancel each other out in the end. There will definitely be no effect.”

After explaining, Ji Gao did not forget to speak again. “You should consider sending Ji Yao away. After sending her away, the company will definitely recover a lot. At the very least, you won’t be on the verge of bankruptcy all the time. You won’t be at the risk of being mocked anymore..”
