There was a hint of doubt in Gao Hua’s words. He looked at Shan Yue in confusion. “If I don’t choose this safer method to drug you and knock you out, aren’t you afraid that I’ll use force?”
“The reason why only the two of us came was to prove my guess and determine if it was you behind the scenes. After all, there’s a small chance that it was someone else. As for why I didn’t bring anyone except Wu Kai, 1 had other intentions.”
Shan Yue raised her eyebrows and looked very calm. “And of course I’m not afraid of you if you use force. Since you’ve asked Wei Long to help, you should know that I could fight dozens of them alone. So if you dare to use force, you’ll only lose even more.”
“You’re right.” Gao Hua lowered his head slightly. His attitude was no longer as arrogant and despotic as before. “So even if President Zhou doesn’t bring anyone over, you’ll stand up and expose me like now?”
“Congratulations, you got it right. Zhou Xuan’s arrival here today was completely an accident. This was not part of my original plan. This was indeed unexpected.”
Shan Yue’s clear eyes flashed, as if everything else was under her control. “Even if he didn’t come, 1 would have stood up when you were about to attack Wu Kai. However, before I could take action, such a variable happened.”
Although Gao Hua was very unwilling to admit it, he lost to Shan Yue again this time, and it was a crushing defeat. Not only did he not win back his face, but he also lost the future of the Gao family.
However, Gao Hua could not give up. Even for the sake of the Gao family, he had to make one last attempt. Although Zhou Xuan had indeed announced the suspension of all cooperation with the Gao Corporation, there was still the last hope, Shan Yue.
“President Shan, I know that all of this is my fault. It’s my vanity and competitiveness. I tried to establish a tall image in front of Shan Xing. I was obsessed and caused everything.”
Gao Hua had never been so humble. He lowered his head and begged others to do something. “1 can bear the corresponding consequences for my actions, but what I did really has nothing to do with the Gao family. Because of this, my father even scolded me, but I didn’t listen to his advice. 1 just hope you can be lenient to the Gao family.”
Shan Yue looked at Gao Hua, who was crying, and shook her head helplessly.
Because there were too many things in this world that people regretted. Everyone had their reasons. But even so, there was never a place to buy medicine for regret. Some things were done, and it was too late to regret later.
“There’s no choice. Real life is like that. There are many things you can’t change. You can only accept it.” Shan Yue’s expression did not change at all. “You’re already an adult. Before you do anything, you should think that you have to pay the corresponding price for your actions. You deserve this.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Hua still did not give up and prepared to make one last plea. With a plop, he knelt in front of Shan Yue. This action shocked his lackeys. They would never have dreamed that their brother would do such a thing one day.
“President Shan, I’ve never knelt to anyone in my life, including my parents. I’m begging you. I know your relationship with President Zhou is not ordinary. Can you not let President Zhou suspend all cooperation with the Gao family?”
For the sake of the Gao family, Gao Hua could no longer care about his reputation. “I’ll definitely follow your lead in the future and won’t do anything disrespectful again. As long as you ask me to go east, I definitely won’t dare to go west.”
Shan Yue was also very helpless in the face of the situation. She had no better choice. She could only decide for herself.
Putting aside the fact that the two of them were not really together yet, even if the two of them were to be together one day, it would be up to Zhou Xuan to decide. She had no right to interfere.
“I can make a concession. I promise you that the Shan Corporation won’t stop working with the Gao family because of this.” After a slight pause, Shan Yue’s lips parted slightly. “However, this is indeed all I can do. As for President Zhou’s decision, I can’t change it. I can’t force my will on others. It’s unfair to him..”
