“What do you know at your age? Just focus on your studies,” said Guo Ming.
Guo Ming spoke while he prepared to go to the room next door to see Cheng Hai.
Guo Hu suddenly strode over and stood in front of Guo Fu. He looked at his father in front of him and felt that he was very unfamiliar.
He knew that his father valued benefits and the family’s reputation, but he did not expect his father to do something illegal like bribing an official. Moreover, it was to destroy Guo Miao’s family business.
“Get out of the way. What are you doing?” Guo Ming reached out and pushed Guo Hu away. He was so strong that he pushed Guo Hu to the ground.
“Dad, are you really going to ruin Uncle Guo Fu’s business? It’s not easy for him to take care of Guo Miao and Guo Xu,” Guo Hu asked. “If you do this, you might hurt their family. They’re really pitiful!”
“If you think they’re pitiful, then you can be the son of that country bumpkin, Guo Fu,” Guo Hu turned around and shouted. He pushed everything on the coffee table to the ground.
The desserts on the table were scattered all over the floor. The glasses fell to the ground, and the table lamp rolled off the coffee table and was smashed into pieces.
The originally clean and tidy living room had turned into ruins in an instant.
Looking at the mess on the ground, Guo Hu felt that this was just like the Guo family now, broken and irreparable.
“Guo Miao is so arrogant because she knows the mayor. Hmph!” Guo Ming snorted. “You’re not trying to suck up to Guo Miao because of this, are you? Fool!”
Guo Ming looked at Guo Hu, who was sitting on the ground without saying a word. He thought that Guo Hu tacitly agreed to his words.
“I know that at your age, you are easily attracted to people who appear powerful. However, people like Guo Miao, who have nothing to her name, can’t be successful forever even if she seems to be doing well for the time being. What can she do for the Zhongs? She’s no use to them. The Zhongs won’t help her again and again.”
Guo Ming sneered and said, “You’d better keep your eyes open. Don’t be fooled by them. You will inherit the Guo family’s business in the future. You have to know who is really useful and who is just powerful.”
Guo Hu, who was sitting on the ground, felt a chill in his heart when he heard his father’s words.
It turned out that in his father’s eyes, benefits and whether he could be used were the most important. Even his own sister had to be weighed before being used.
“Dad, I’m really disappointed in you.” Guo Hu slowly stood up and said,” I used to think that Lin did such a wrong thing because she was not in a good state of mind. Mom got depression because she was anxious about Sister’s matter. But I don’t think so. This family has become like this because of you!””
Guo Hu’s eyes seemed to be burning.
Ever since he ran away from home last time, Guo Hu felt that he had finally seen his father’s true colors.
“You little brat, without your father, your entire family would be living on thin air. What right do you have to criticize me now?” Guo Ming was furious, his face flushed red.
At this moment, the phone suddenly rang.
Guo Ming glanced at his phone. It was a call from the police chief, Chen Yao.
Why was Chen Yao calling in the middle of the night?
He calmed his breathing and pointed at Guo Hu. “Go back to your room first.”
He picked up the phone and immediately changed his expression.
“Chief Chen, what’s the matter?” he said with a smile.
According to the laws of China, the director of Haicheng’s Public Security Bureau was almost as powerful as the mayor of Haicheng itself. Guo Ming didn’t dare to offend this big shot.
“Hello, Director Guo. Our Haicheng Public Security Bureau recently received a complaint about officials receiving bribery. It may be related to the Guo Group. Do you mind if we go to your company tomorrow to investigate?” Chen Yao said politely.
Guo Ming knew that things were not good. If the Public Security Bureau went to the company to investigate and found some clues, his position as the chairman would be threatened. However, Chen Yao called him personally, so he could not refuse.
“We will do our best to cooperate. Don’t worry,” Guo Ming said.
“Alright, thank you.” Chen Yao hung up the phone.
Guo Ming suddenly realized that Chen Yao called her personally.. Could Chen Yao also be on Guo Miao’s side?
