Countless people are now living in constant fear, including many members of the Gu family, collateral relatives, and important staff.
The whistleblower system is absolutely vicious! Everyone has enemies, and even your seemingly close friends and colleagues in life and work could very well be the ones who file a formal complaint against you!
"Lin Yao, the Gu family didn't mean that. It's just that the old man wanted to accumulate more family property for his descendants, which is why he put forward those conditions. Please don't mind, this can be discussed."
Lin Yao's smile faded. He stared into Gu Zhuofei's eyes for two seconds, then said "Oh," and turned to leave. "Lili, Nannan, you need to wash your hands before eating!"
Twenty minutes later, Gu Zhuofei, who had been lingering on the ground outside the villa, hurriedly entered the restaurant. Her original plan to use Ming Xinyue, the current head of the Gu family, and her friendship with Lin Yao to say a few good words was now ruined, because the phone number that had been displayed the day before was now switched off. Clearly, Lin Yao did not want to be contacted by the Gu family.
"Mom, this pancake is delicious, you should try one."
Xiao Guli immediately forgot his previous stance and invited his mother, Gu Zhuofei, to have some snacks.
Children, unless something happens, don't hold grudges like adults. Returning to Lin Yao's side is like returning home. The good mood brought by the delicious food made him forget all his unhappiness, and the maternal love he had just received made him value it again.
"Lili, you guys eat first, Mom has something to do."
Gu Zhuofei's originally serious face broke into a smile, and she felt very gratified.
After calming Xiao Guli down, he turned to look at Lin Yao, who was also sitting at the table eating snacks with chopsticks, and said, "Lin Yao, I want to talk to you."
Lin Yao followed Gu Zhuofei to a small lounge next to the lobby. "Sister Zhuofei, what's up?"
Out of consideration for Xiao Guli, Lin Yao addressed Gu Zhuofei as "sister" again, but this did not bring Gu Zhuofei any comfort. In addition, Lin Yao's previous statement when he refused to return Xiao Guli that he was not afraid of going to court made her finally understand Lin Yao's ruthlessness and cold-heartedness. Her impression and evaluation of Lin Yao underwent a complete change.
"Lin Yao, you said that discus is an heirloom of your Lin family. We want to return it to you in the hope that it will bring you and Min Hong a friendship in return."
Gu Zhuofei spoke artfully, saying that the word "friendship" has a broad meaning. Once Lin Yao accepts Ding Gai, he must first be responsible for the safety of the Gu family and related employees of the Gu family company, and at the very least, he must open up the supply of special drugs.
At the same time, the Gu family can continue to propose cooperation step by step, gradually deepening their ties with Minhong. It's even foreseeable that future cooperation will extend to pharmaceuticals, penetrating Minhong's core business – this is the Gu family's ultimate goal.
With friendship, anything can be said. For businesses, so-called friendship inevitably involves interests. Pure friendship is almost non-existent. Everyone is so busy, who has time for pure friendship?
“If members of the Gu family do not commit any particularly serious crimes, they can obtain membership in Minhong.”
Lin Yao knew what Gu Zhuofei meant, and didn't beat around the bush. He directly stated his opinion, "However, it still needs to be handled according to the relevant conditions. For example, we can be a little more lenient on the criteria for large donations of personal property or even naked donations."
"For Lili's sake..."
Before Gu Zhuofei could finish speaking, Lin Yao interrupted her, "Lili is Lili, and the Gu family is the Gu family. This is already out of consideration for Lili!"

"Lin Yao, here is a summary report on the recent international situation, this is the domestic situation and media reaction, here is a summary table of typical situations of hospitals and clinics across the country, the fourth is the organization of volunteers and auxiliary teams in various cities, and the data on newly added members is on the last page."
Gu Zhuofei was dressed in casual home clothes, yet she still exuded the elegance of an office lady, which caught the attention of Yi Zuojun and Dika, who had long been by Lin Yao's side. They gave her a lot of stares.
"Thank you, Sister Zhuofei! I'll put it here and look at it later."
Lin Yao handed a square iron box to Yi An, gave him a look to leave, and then turned to Gu Zhuofei with a smile and a nod, "Lili should be out of school soon, you and Elder Yi Liao go pick them up."
"Okay, I'm leaving."
When Gu Zhuofei was working, she was very capable, completely without any hesitation or indecisiveness, which was completely different from the situation Lin Yao had seen before.
Gu Zhuofei, who had slipped out of the room, quickly glanced at the iron box in Elder Yi An's hand. Her opinion of Lin Yao and Min Hong rose again, and the frustration she had been feeling vanished without a trace.
Forced by circumstances, for the safety of the Gu family, Gu Zhuofei had no choice but to agree to all of Lin Yao's conditions as his representative. She not only agreed to present the lid of the cauldron, but also to stay in Beijing to work for Minhong. Of course, this decision was made after consulting with the Gu family patriarch in Suzhou and the current manager, Ming Xinyue, but it still made her very indignant.
Lin Yao values Gu Zhuofei's overall management ability. It would be a shame not to use this former top business elite. In addition, Gu Li absolutely refused to return to Suzhou. Gu Zhuofei had to accept the proposal for both personal and professional reasons. Therefore, her current status is that of an employee, a senior manager of Minhong, and can barely be considered a senior executive of the group.
After spending the entire night using her executive privileges to access and understand Min Hong's information, coupled with a whole day of work, Gu Zhuofei gradually developed a completely new evaluation of Lin Yao and Min Hong.
"This is a group full of fairy tales, and the whole family are crazy, or rather, pure idealists!"
This was Gu Zhuofei's assessment, yet she had to admit that with Lin Yao and Min Hong's current strength and special abilities, they were very likely to realize that fantastical ideal, even if it was through a natural disaster.
The more Gu Zhuofei learned about Minhong's internal affairs, the more she admired Lin Yao's family and the entire Minhong. Her indignation about the treatment her family received the day before even changed, and she began to think that her family's treatment was a matter of course!
The only thing that displeased Gu Zhuofei was that this plan would result in the deaths of many, many people. Among them were social elites, pioneers, and leaders from all walks of life. This was nothing short of a grave crime against society and would severely impact the national economy and people's lives.
But what can be done? Should we blame Lin Yao and Min Hong for their lack of ability? Should we blame them for not being able to immediately produce a special drug that could save 1.5 billion people? Gu Zhuofei certainly understands how difficult it is to manage production resources and other aspects involved, after all, she was once a leader who managed billions of assets.
The strange thing is that Lin Yao and Min Hong can only passively defend themselves now, fighting a life-or-death battle against the unknown owner of the "magical artifact".
The strange thing is that Lin Yao and Minhong Pharmaceutical believe that all compatriots are treated equally, and that no one should be distinguished by status, wealth, or poverty. Elite people who lack virtue are destined to die!
Gu Zhuofei was certain that many officials and social elites would die in the endless plagues to come, because she had gradually come to understand Minhong's core secrets, the group's current policies and future dynamics, and that the principles it adhered to would never change. The Lin Yao family was as stubborn as rocks, which determined the life and death of many people.
