Although the Chu Corporation’s reputation in the circle had always been good, it was also right for him to have more preparations and consider further.
Especially after the incident with Ji Gao, the people in the circle were all looking at those loving couples with suspicion.
As a result, the loving couples in the circle had a lot of complaints about Ji Gao.
Yang Hong retracted his leaning body and sat up slightly.
“You’re not wrong.” He nodded in agreement. “Anyway, we haven’t reached the end of the line. It’s not too bad. Moreover, I believe that you have the ability to survive this crisis!”
Yang Hong was full of confidence in Ji Chen. After all, he had watched how Ji Chen developed Radiant to this position bit by bit.
During this period, they received some preferential treatment because of Ji Chen’s identity, but there were also people who tried to stop him. Or rather, there were quite a number of people who wanted to attack Ji Chen so they could laugh at the Ji Group and Ji Gao.
They’d all stood out under those circumstances. They could do the same now. It was only a matter of time, he firmly believed.
Ji Chen glanced at the confident Yang Hong and a trace of a smile flashed across his eyes, but it was quickly hidden in those cold eyes, as if that smile had never appeared.
“You do have confidence in me.” Ji Chen said ambiguously.
Yang Hong smiled directly. “1 am depending on you to earn money. If 1 don’t have confidence in you, how can I continue to earn money?”
With Gu Xiao’s call and Yang Hong’s trust, Ji Chen, who had been a little nervous about Radiant’s future, finally let go of his worries and could move forward bravely.
Yang Hong and Ji Chen chatted for a while, then he got up and left Ji Chen’s office.
Although he was not as capable as Ji Chen, he was still able to handle some matters in the company. Now was not the time for him to rest.
Gu Xiao did not know what Ji Chen was worried about. After hanging up the phone with Ji Chen, she told him what Ji Chen had said.
Hearing that Ji Chen had rejected the Chu family’s help, Chu An was not surprised at all. Or rather, Ji Chen’s reaction was completely within his expectations.
Although the Chu family did not interact much with Ji Chen during the celebratory banquet last time, anyone who was not blind could tell how much the Chu family cared about Gu Xiao.
Ji Chen had a clear mind, so how could he not notice this?
Then, he would definitely know that as long as he spoke to Gu Xiao, Gu Xiao would have a 70 to 80% chance of asking the Chu Corporation to help Radiant tide over the crisis.
However, Radiant had been blacklisted by the Ji Group for a few days now. When Ji Chen contacted Gu Xiao these two days, he did not even tell her about it. Other than not wanting Gu Xiao to worry, he also did not want the Chu Corporation to appear at this time.
It was just that this matter concerned Ji Chen, someone that Gu Xiao cared about, which was why he mentioned this.
“Since Brother Chen is unwilling, forget it,” Chu An said to Gu Xiao. “In the future, I’ll get someone to look out for Brother Chen. If it really doesn’t work, it’s fine for us to help secretly.”
As long as Ji Chen did not find out that they had helped Radiant, they would not be considered as helping.
When Gu Xiao heard Chu An’s words, a hint of a smile finally appeared in her eyes.
She nodded. “Then that’s it. Based on his words, 1 don’t think Brother is forcing himself either. Radiant’s situation shouldn’t be too dangerous.” She didn’t have to worry too much.
After Gu Xiao and Chu An chatted for a while, she decided to ignore the Ji Group and Radiant for the time being.
However, in the next few days, the Ji Group’s suppression of Radiant became more and more intense. It even reached the point where they directly poached people from Radiant, causing some internal changes in Radiant.
Fortunately, Ji Chen had some control over Radiant and Ji Chen was quite popular. Even if they were being poached by the Ji Group, very few people were willing to leave Radiant.
After all, they had seen Ji Chen’s ability and knew that Radiant would be able to soar as long as they could survive. As for the Ji Group… in terms of reputation, it was not worth their time.
When Gu Xiao heard this news, she immediately felt furious.
She had thought that Old Master Ji and Ji Gao would care about their reputation and not come openly. It was enough for them to snatch the collaboration deals and leak the news that the Ji Group was suppressing Radiant.
She did not expect that the Ji Group would actually poach their employees without caring about their reputation.
Especially when she thought about how Star Brilliance had experienced this before, Gu Xiao was even angrier..
