Qi Cheng reminded Lin Shanchu and said that he was on the way to her house before hanging up the phone.
Lin Shanchu immediately logged into Weibo.
The hastag #LuShiyuanApologyLetter was trending.
Lin Shanchu tapped on the trending hastag. The pinned trending topic was Lu Shiyuan’s apology letter.
It was a very long apology letter.
It was densely packed with too many words. Lin Shanchu only glanced at the opening line “To Lin Shanchu” and “Lu Shiyuan” at the end before checking the comments section.
[There are too manv words. I’m too lazv to look at them. Can anvone summarize it?]
[TL;DR: Lin Shanchu, sorry, I was wrong.]
[I’ve finished reading it. It’s well written. Lu Shiyuan should pay more for the public relations officer who wrote the apology letter.]
[If an apology is useful, why do we need the police?]
[It seems that Lu Corporation’s stock is going to hit the lower circuit limit again today. The disgusting man is starting to be scared, so he’s apologizing for the sake of money.]
[After reading through the comments, I realized that I was too naive. A capitalist like Lu Shiyuan will certainly put interests first. Indeed, it’s impossible for him to apologize sincerely.]
No one spoke up for Lu Shiyuan in the comments section.
Lin Shanchu left the comments section with satisfaction.
However, a public apology was indeed not Lu Shiyuan’s style.
The car had entered the parking garage of the residential area.
He Xiang’s phone rang right after she parked the car.
Lin Shanchu turned on WeChat and was about to text Qi Cheng, but she heard He Xiang say surprisedly, “What? Why do they want to postpone it?” She turned to look at He Xiang.
It was unknown what the person on the other end of the phone said, but He Xiang did not look well after listening for a while. She hung up the phone after she said, “Got it.”
“What happened?” Lin Shanchu asked.
He Xiang held her phone and said frustratedly, “The lavvyer called to say that
Tang Qidai is sick and hospitalized, so the court hearing will be postponed.”
“What illness?” When she met Tang Qidai earlier, she looked quite healthy, but she was a little mentally unstable.
He Xiang shook her head and replied, “He didn’t say, but I heard that she’s seriously ill and almost died.”
Lin Shanchu remembered that she saw Lu Shiyuan when she came out of the detention center on that day.
Lin Shanchu turned on Weibo again and tapped on the apology letter.
The time it took for Lin Shanchu to walk from the parking garage to her house was enough for her to finish reading the apology letter.
Lu Shiyuan had always been conceited. No matter what, he always had a high and mighty attitude.
All these years, Lin Shanchu had never seen him sincerely apologize to anyone, not to mention a public apology.
More importantly, Lu Shiyuan humbled himself by posting the apology letter, appearing to be full of sincerity.
Even if he hired a public relations officer to write an apology letter on his behalf, with Lu Shiyuan’s character, he would never humble himself so much.
In addition, Lu Shiyuan already knew that she was the one who plotted the affair between him and Xia Jinmeng. He should be itching to skin her alive now.
The appearance of this apology letter was not difficult to guess what happened.
Tang Qidai and Lu Shiyuan had probably laid their cards on the table.
Tang Qidai had lied to Lu Shiyuan for so many years. Fueled by rage, he must have wanted to kill Tang Qidai on the spot.
Once Lu Shiyuan’s temper got the best of him, it was possible for him to lay a hand on her in front of the police.
It also explained why Tang Qidai’s sudden hospitalization delayed He Xiang’s case.
He Xiang had also finished reading the apology letter.
“Sister Lin, this public relations writing is quite good.”
Lin Shanchu leaned lazily on the sofa, propping up her head with one hand. “Lu
Shivuan wrote it himself.”
“Huh?” He Xiang’s eyes widened.
The doorbell suddenly rang.
He Xiang quickly went to open the door.
It was Qi Cheng.
“Have you read Lu Shiyuan’s public apology letter?” Qi Cheng asked as soon as he entered the house.
“I did.” He Xiang glanced at Lin Shanchu and said mysteriously, “Sister Lin said that Lu Shiyuan wrote it himself.”
“It’s probably written by Lu Shiyuan.” Qi Cheng had worked in Lu Corporation for so many years and had some understanding of Lu Shiyuan’s personality, but he definitely did not know Lu Shiyuan as well as Lin Shanchu did.
Since Lin Shanchu said that Lu Shiyuan wrote the apology letter, it was definitely true.
He Xiang looked surprised. She could not believe that Lu Shiyuan had personally written an apology letter.
“Now that Lu Shiyuan has done this, this matter will never end.” Qi Cheng sat down opposite Lin Shanchu and said, “If this matter doesn’t end quickly, it won’t be easy for you to start your next job.”
The people inside the entertainment industry loved laughing stocks, whereas the people outside the industry loved gossips.
For a long time, this matter would definitely be brought up again and again.
“It’s just a small matter.” Lin Shanchu chuckled.
She was only one step away from ruining Lu Shiyuan. Nothing else was important.
Qi Cheng looked up at her noncommittally.
Lin Shanchu slowly explained her next plan, “I’ll take a lawyer to Lu
Corporation to audit the accounts in the afternoon.”
“It’s good to audit the accounts!” Qi Cheng agreed. “Such a clear-cut action is indirectly indicating that you don’t accept Lu Shiyuan’s apology. I’ll help you contact a lawyer now!”
“I want to hire Chu Gushen,” Lin Shanchu said with a smile.
Qi Cheng paused and his smile gradually disappeared. Then, he said seriously, “I see that you’ve been quite free recently. Since you’re free anyway, you should go and hire a lawyer yourself.”
Although he had some connections in the entertainment industry, Chu Gushen was an outsider and a well-known lawyer. He could not guarantee that he could hire Chu Gushen.
If he failed to hire Chu Gushen, wouldn’t he lose face?
Lin Shanchu smiled calmly as she said, “You’re right.”
Lin Shanchu immediately contacted Chu Gushen.
“Miss Lin.” Chu Gushen had previously helped Lin Shanchu to have her will verified, so it was natural that he had her number.
“Lawyer Chu, are you free this afternoon? I’d like to ask your favor and go somewhere with me.”
Chu Gushen was quiet for a moment. He was probably checking his schedule.
“I’ll be free after 2:00 p.m.”
“Lawyer Chu, I’d like you to accompany me to Lu Corporation after 2:00 p.m.”
“Miss Lin, no problem.”
After the call ended, Qi Cheng immediately came over and asked, “Did Chu Gushen agree?”
“Yes.”
“That’s good.” Qi Cheng heaved a sigh of relief.
Lin Shanchu did not expect Chu Gushen to agree so readily.
She was also an old client of Chu Gushen. However, Chu Gushen was famous and busy. All the cases he took on were big cases. To her surprise, he agreed to a small matter like an accounting audit.
Lin Shanchu and Chu Gushen agreed to meet at the entrance of Lu Corporation. When Chu Gushen saw Lin Shanchu’s car, he immediately got out of the car and walked over.
Lin Shanchu opened the car door and was about to get out, but Chu Gushen blocked her way and said, “Let’s chat for a while before going up.”
“Hmm?”
Out of habit, Chu Gushen pushed his silver-rimmed glasses up and continued, “I need to understand my client’s request.”
“My request is very simple with only two words,” Lin Shanchu said with a laugh.
Chu Gushen said, “Pray tell, Miss Lin.”
Lin Shanchu replied, “Make money.”
Speechless, Chu Gushen’s expression froze for a moment before he said, “I understand.. “
