<h4>Chapter 332: Sudden Change</h4>


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>Lonelytree


    Liao Guohui was very confident after he had gotten in touch with the Yan Family. He didn’t have to be afraid of Yan Siming anymore because his partnership was with Yan Siming’s father. What could Yan Siming do to him now?


    Therefore, he was currently happily staying in a hotel room with a lover.


    Just as he was about to have sex with his lover, he suddenly received a call from his secretary.


    Secretary Mi’s voice was very anxious as she asked, “Chairman Liao, where are you? Something big has happened at thepany!”


    Liao Guohui frowned and asked in confusion, “Something big? What do you mean?” But then he thought of the cooperation with Yan Yiging and immediatelyughed out loud, “Indeed, something big has happened. Ourpany has gotten a partnership with Qincheng Investment Company. That is indeed


    a big deal!” Then, he said impatiently, “Alright, don’t disturb me if there’s nothing else.”


    Secretary Mi was silent for a moment. Then, she directly cut to the chase. “Director Liao, that is not it. Ourpany’s previous tourism development projects have been exposed. Thepany didn’t follow the correct protocol during the demolitions. We provided minusculepensation and even caused


    a few deaths.


    “Also, the people from the tax bureau are here. They say that ourpany is guilty of tax evasion and ount falsification. They are currently auditing us.


    “We’re already on the inte’s trending page!”


    Hearing the report from his secretary, the phone in Liao Guohui’s hand fell to the ground with a ng.


    His eyes were wide open, and his face was pale.


    His expression was fearful and uneasy.


    ‘Why would these things suddenly be exposed? They are fine until now!”


    Liao Guohui did not believe it.


    He immediately tumed on theputer in his room and turned on the news channel. Immediately, he saw the trending list. The first trending news was, “global tourism developmentpany is the Devil.”


    Liao Guohui’s hands trembled as he scrolled down the list. When he saw the article, his pupils contracted violently.


    The article detailed how hispany had forced local farmers into aer in the name of tourism development. Some of the farmers were even beaten to death by the thugs hired by hispany because the farmers put up a resistance. There were pictures, and they were all ghastly.


    Liao Guohui’s mind was nk. ‘When did this happen? And where did the picturese from?


    In an instant, he felt a chill run down his spine.


    He felt an invisible hand controlling all these things. Thankfully, Liao Guohui had years of experience. He quickly calmed down. The first thing he needed to do was to suppress the news.


    He immediately picked up his phone from the ground and called Secretary Mi.


    “Secretary Mi, immediately get the public rtions department to suppress the news. They have to get these topics off trending no matter the price,” Liao Guohui said anxiously.


    Secretary Mi sighed, “Chairman Liao, it’s useless. I had already reached out to the PR department when the news exploded. The PR people contacted the news site and wanted to buy the suppression.


    “However, the other party said that they had received an order from their superior to promote the news. No matter how much we pay, they remain indifferent.”


    Secretary Mi was also filled with regret. Earlier, she had already decided to resign when she overheard the bankruptcy. However, soon after that, she received a message from Chairman Liao saying that theirpany had reached a partnership with Qingcheng Investmentpany.


    In that case, theirpany would continue to rise. Therefore, she secretly withdrew her resignation letter.


    However, who would have thought things would change so quickly. The ending of thepany depended on the actions of the chairman.


    Secretary Mi had a feeling that the bankruptcy was real this time.


    Chairman Liao had announced at first notice the moment he got the partnership with Qingcheng Investment Company. No one in City Z would be so tactless to offend Liao Guohui because that would mean offending the Yan Family.


    However, it still happened!


    ‘The news exposure, the tax audit, and so on. They were all carefully nned.


    Secretary Mi was reminded of the things she overheard that day. Her boss had offended a big shot. And big shot would bankrupt Liao Guohui’spany.


    Secretary Mi wondered who this big shot was.


    Simrly, Liao Guohui was wondering the same thing. The only name that came to his mind was Yan Siming. However, it didn’t make sense. Yan Siming knew that he was working with his father, so why would he do this? Was the woman in Taoyuan Vige more important than his father? Would he


    offend his father for this woman?


    Liao Guohui did not have time to guess.


    He immediately made another call. The person he was calling was, of course, his current partner — Yan Yiging.


    Yan Yiging sat in his office and rubbed his forehead. It was obvious that he was ina terrible state.


    He had just received the news that Lin Lihui and the others had been arrested all of a sudden, saying that they had taken bribes.


    Then, all of a sudden, the leaders of various government departments came to visit hispany. They were from the tax bureau, the industry, andmerce bureau, and so on. They were there for ‘routine business’.


    Yan Yiging was powerful in City Z, but he was not foolish enough to offend these officials. He treated them like fine guests. Thankfully, he had many interactions with them and thus was familiar with these leaders.


    ‘When he chatted with them, he found out the shocking news. It was their superiors who ordered them to do this routine business. Who was their superior? It was the people from the prefecture capital.


    Yan Yiging was also familiar with the leaders of the prefecture capital. He would know if they wanted to send people to check hispany.


    He immediately called his contact at the prefecture capital. His contact told him that Lin Lihui and a few others had been arrested for bribery.


    Right after that, Yan Yiging’s subordinate informed him that Global Tourism Development Company had gotten on trending.


    Yan Yiging checked the news.


    He frowned for a long time.


    He had a faint bad feeling in his heart.


    He thought of the warning his son, Yan Siming, gave him.


    At that time, he didn’t care at all. But now that he thought about it, this was all repercussion for their intention to develop Taoyuan Vige. Otherwise, things were too coincidental.


    He was just about to call his son, Yan Siming, to ask about Taoyuan Vige when Liao Guohui called him.


    Yan Yiging thought for a moment and answered his call.


    “President Yan, please save mypany!” Liao Guohui started to plead. “I need you to help me to pressure the news website to take down the news about mypany.”


    Yan Yiging said calmly, “Liao Guohui, is everything on the news true?”


    Businessmen would sometimes resort to underhanded means for profit. However, if they caused the death of people, this was a heinous crime. Plus, ording to the news, there were at least ten people who died!


    Basically, two or three vigers died at each location Liao Guohui had developed. This… was madness!


    Yan Yiging was a businessman but he was principled. He wouldn’t kill for profit.


    Liao Guohui naturally denied everything. “President Yan, it’s not true. Someone is trying to frame me. It’s all fake. President Yan, you have to help me. Otherwise, mypany will really be finished.”


    “Someone tried to frame you?” Yan Yiging repeated, then asked again, “Then tell me, who is framing you?”


    “It’s Yan…” Liao Guohui almost blurted out Yan Siming’s name before he realized he was talking to Yan Siming’s father. Liao Guohui pleaded, “Director Yan, can we talk about thister? Please save mypany first, okay?”


    ‘When Yan Yiging heard the word, Yan, he knew Liao Guohui wanted to throw his son under the bus. Yan Yiging was furious.


    He said coldly, “I have an urgent matter right now. You can figure this out yourself.”


    After saying that, he hung up the phone and no longer paid attention to Liao Guohui.


    Liao Guohui was in despair, holding his phone.
