Faced with Ji Gao’s question, the person on the other end also felt very wronged. Thinking of the commotion on the Internet now, he could not help but feel a trace of anger.
“President Ji, even if you didn’t call me, i would have called you. Back then, when we did this, you swore that nothing would leak out and nothing would happen. Then what’s the situation online now?!”
Ji Gao was at a loss for words after being questioned by the person on the other end of the line.
“President Ji, let me tell you this. If the officials really notice this matter, you can afford to pay the fine, but I don’t have the ability. When the time comes, if I go to jail, if you don’t think of a way to get me out, 1 definitely won’t let this matter rest! President Ji, 1 don’t think you want to be dragged down again, right?”
The person on the other end threatened Ji Gao and hung up the phone without waiting for him to speak.
When Ji Gao heard the cold beeping sound coming from the phone, a trace of ruthlessness flashed across his eyes.
He gripped his phone tightly, the veins on the back of his hand bulging.
Don’t let him know who leaked this matter. Otherwise, he would definitely not let that person have an easy time!
The fear and anger in Ji Gao’s heart had reached its peak because of that person’s threat and unawareness of who was behind this. He punched the table angrily and felt a throbbing pain in his temples.
However, Ji Gao knew very well that he could not act rashly now. Just as his friend had said, he could not respond now and could only pretend that he did not know anything.
As long as he maintained the illusion of peace like the others and did not let anyone find conclusive evidence, he would still have a chance of surviving this.
No one responded, and as long as no one responded to this news, there would eventually be a day when this show would end!
With this thought in mind, Ji Gao straightened up and took a deep breath. Then, he slowly exhaled.
He closed his eyes. When he opened them again, there was only calmness in his eyes, as if the person who had vented his anger on the table just now was not him.
Only by keeping his composure could he live in peace.
As time passed, there was no new source of information. The news of 500 million yuan in tax evasion gradually quietened down.
Ji Gao had been paying attention to the comments online during this period of time. Seeing that the public opinion was gradually declining, he immediately relaxed.
Look, his previous decision was right. As long as he could steady himself, the person who exposed the news would not be able to do anything to him!
As New Year’s Eve approached, Ji Gao became more and more relaxed.
Just as everyone was planning to celebrate the new year, a post related to Ji Gao suddenly appeared on the Internet.
#The person who evaded taxes is Ji Group’s Ji Gao!#
As soon as this post appeared, it became a trending topic and was ranked top on the trending searches. Anyone who could enter the platform would be able to see this post at first glance.
As soon as this post appeared, the entire Internet instantly became lively.
They never expected that something that they had almost forgotten would appear in front of them in such a way.
As soon as the post appeared, before Ji Gao could discover it, he received a call.
“Old Ji! What’s with that post online? Is someone trying to frame you? You have to investigate carefully! You can’t let this matter go so easily. Tax evasion is not a joke!”
“What’s going on with that trending topic? Why are you the one who evaded taxes of 500 million yuan?”
“The Ji Group is such a big family business. I don’t believe you did this. How could you have done this for a mere 500 million? Old Ji, this matter can’t wait. Hurry up and deal with it!”
Ji Gao had just hung up one call when the next call would come in.
After answering more than ten calls, his phone stopped vibrating and quietened down.
Ji Gao gripped his phone tightly, and a trace of mockery flashed across his eyes.
These people’s words were similar. They seemed to be concerned about him and seemed to be filled with righteous indignation for him, but in fact, none of them were reliable!
They all said that if it was a rumor, they could help him sue, but no one said that if he really did this, they would help him solve this problem..
