Young Master Xiang, Leave Me Alone - C207
Chapter 207 – Sickness
“What did you say?” “What do you mean by kill you?” Tao Chu Liang was shocked.
“Originally, I thought that after things were done, she would send me to the Leap Group to report, but in the end she actually had a helper waiting for me at my house. I saw someone holding a knife! ” As Gao Ming recalled the scene from that day, he couldn’t help but shrink back his neck.
Tao Chu Liang felt a chill in his heart. He wouldn’t be too surprised if Li Li was the one to tell his what to do. But she didn’t expect that this woman could still kill him. Perhaps, it was because of the reporter from last time that caused her to be wary of him. He even had the thought of killing him to silence him!
“Gao Ming, for this matter, I can only use the law. You have to bear the consequences of your choice. In court, I will call off the case against you, but I must have you in court to testify! ” This matter had already made Tao Chu Liang unable to endure any longer.
Because of Li Li, the company had lost tens of millions this time! If she did not clarify it, the consumer would definitely lose their confidence in the Xiang Group.
Gao Ming had no choice but to accept.
At the same time, Li Li was scolding her underlings who couldn’t handle the situation. She had just learned that Gao Ming had actually run away! She did not know that Tao Chu Liang had already caught Gao Ming. Li Li had no other choice but to send more people to search.
But in the evening the police came.
“CEO Li Li, here is our police ID, we have a case that requires your cooperation.” The leader of the police said to Li Li, and was considered to be courteous.
Li Li’s heart was thumping a little, but she pretended to be calm as she said, “What investigation? I won’t go! How would I have the time to talk nonsense with you guys! ”
The leader of the policemen saw that Li Li had a straight face and his face turned cold: “Miss Li Li, we have already received Miss Tao Chu Liang’s accusation against you. Now, regardless of whether you are willing or not, we will make a trip to the police station!” After he finished speaking, the few policemen stood out and dragged Li Li out.
Li Li struggled as she shouted, “Why should she accuse me?”
When he arrived at the police station, Li Li saw Tao Chu Liang and Qiao Qing Hao who were already waiting there.
“Tao Chu Liang? What are you doing! How dare you let the police come after me! If my grandfather finds out, he definitely won’t let you off! ” Li Li screamed crazily the moment he saw Tao Chu Liang.
Tao Chu Liang shook his head: “I think it’s better for you to answer truthfully when we interrogate her. This way, maybe I can consider setting aside the lawsuit.” This Li Li was really giving him a headache.
However, Li Li did not take Tao Chu Liang’s words to heart. In the interrogation room, not only did she flatly deny it, she also did not cooperate with the police and kept throwing a tantrum. Tao Chu Liang had no choice but to agree to meet with them in court the next day. Both Li Li and Tao Chu Liang stayed at the police station for the time being.
But Li Li was in custody.
Because the nature of this matter was special, Tao Chu Liang still gave Li Li some face and did not request for a public hearing. Both parties were only discussing this matter in private in the court. So in court, only the judge and the jury were there, as well as the lawyers from both sides.
Even at this point, Li Li still did not admit it. She even said that she would capture all of the judges and the jury.
Tao Chu Liang could no longer endure, and shouted loudly: “Li Li! Please respect these staff members present! Judge, I ask for my witness! ”
The judge nodded, then the two policemen brought Gao Ming out. The moment he saw Gao Ming, Li Li immediately stopped shouting.
Tao Chu Liang’s lawyer walked in front of Gao Ming and said loudly: “I am the witness. I will be asking you some questions, you only need to say yes or no, understand?”
Gao Ming looked at Tao Chu Liang, and nodded: “Understood.”
“That’s good, then about the matter of the phone being leaked from Xiang Group, was it ordered by the CEO of the Leap Group, Li Li?”
“Yes?”
“Did the other party promise to pay you a high fee?”
“Yes …”
“Did the other party attempt to silence you after this?”
Gao Ming took one last look at Li Li, whose eyes were filled with viciousness, and said with certainty: “Yes!”
The lawyer nodded in satisfaction, turned to the judge, and said, “Your Honor, my question is over. Looking at the current situation, I think that Miss Li Li of the Leap Group violated Xiang Group’s reputation and at the same time, had the intention to kill.
The jury said, “Agreed.”
In front of absolute evidence, Li Li lowered her head, and then shouted: “I cannot go to jail! My corporation needs me! I’m going to have to call in a lawyer to defend myself! ”
The judge looked at her and said, “Miss Li Li, you can ask for a lawyer, but before that, we will sentence you to at least one year for your crimes.”
Hearing that, Li Li was immediately scared pale. If this matter were to spread out, then the Leap Group would be completely destroyed! Grandfather will definitely punish me mercilessly!
“Judge, seeing that the defendant is regretful, I have decided to cancel the lawsuit and request for compensation from the Leap Group.” Tao Chu Liang slowly said. Letting Li Li go to jail was not her original intention. She only needed to prove the innocence of the corporation.
The judge looked at Tao Chu Liang, and after discussing with the jury, he said, “If the plaintiff has proposed to annul the lawsuit, the court will have no choice but to respect the plaintiff’s wishes!”
Li Li looked at the expressionless Tao Chu Liang, his heart a little complicated. She felt that Tao Chu Liang was pitying her, or was really afraid of Li Tian Chen. Could it be that Tao Chu Liang really wanted her to go to jail?
In the end, the court decided that Leap Group had to pay Xiang Group 100 million in damages, and at the same time, declare this to the outside world.
This secret trial spread across the entire country the next day, and everyone knew that the leakage of smartphones was caused by the Leap Group. The Leap Group’s business reputation instantly plummeted, causing Li Li to panic. Ever since she took over, the company had never faced such a huge crisis. That was why she had been busy trying to redeem her reputation as a company. However, this matter had already alarmed Li Tian Chen. Li Tian Chen had already decided to rush back home as soon as possible.
As for Gao Ming, this kind of person, Tao Chu Liang did not dare to stay any longer. It was his greatest fortune that he was not prosecuted. Gao Ming did not touch the money Li Li gave him and went his own way.
Xiang Group’s latest smartphone is back online and has regained a large share of the market. In this recall event, Xiang Group could be considered to have benefited from misfortune, and her good corporate image had become more and more popular.
At the moment, Tao Chu Liang was sitting in his office, watching the scene outside the window. In the past few days, she had been tensed up, but now that the matter had come to an end, he believed that this time, Li Li would be able to calm down for a period of time.
Qiao Qing Hao knocked on the door and walked in, smiling: “Chu Liang, everything is ready, we can set off!”
Tao Chu Liang’s face instantly revealed a look of ecstasy. After settling this matter, Tao Chu Liang could not wait to see Xiang Chen Xi. Thinking about how he would be able to see the person he yearned for day and night for so long, Tao Chu Liang was so excited that his palms started to sweat.
She stood up abruptly, but for some reason, she felt a sudden pain in her head and her vision went black. She actually fell down. Before she fell down, she saw Qiao Qing Hao’s panicked face.
“Chu Liang!” Qiao Qing Hao was shocked, he ran up to Tao Chu Liang in a few steps. Qiao Qing Hao carried her in his arms and called out a few times in a hurry, but Tao Chu Liang didn’t react at all. He carried Tao Chu Liang up from the ground and rushed out of the office, completely ignoring the strange gazes of the employees.
Many of the employees saw that Tao Chu Liang had fainted, and were all shocked. The group had just returned back to normal, what if Tao Chu Liang fell sick again? A lot of them chased after his with some concern.
When they arrived at the entrance of the group, Qiao Qing Hao said to the group: “Everyone, go back!” Then, he placed Tao Chu Liang in the car, sat on the driver’s seat, and immediately sped away.
Through the rearview mirror, Qiao Qing Hao would occasionally glance at Tao Chu Liang who was sitting in the backseat, and his heart would become tangled up in a knot. It was all his fault for being careless. These past few days, Chu Liang had worked too hard. Qiao Qing Hao could only mutter to himself in his heart. Hopefully, it was only because he hadn’t had a good rest, so it wasn’t a big deal.
When they arrived at the hospital, Qiao Qing Hao directly sent Tao Chu Liang to the emergency room. The people from the hospital were already waiting for him. The doctors and nurses were all standing fully armed in the operation room. When Tao Chu Liang arrived at the hospital, he immediately began to check all over.
Sheng Jue and Chen Shu received the news and rushed over.
“What’s going on?” Sheng Jue frowned. If Chen Xi returned and discovered that he had not taken good care of Chu Liang, he would definitely lose his temper.
Qiao Qing Hao shook his head: “I don’t know, let’s talk after the doctor’s examination is over.”
After almost two hours, doctors and nurses came out. The three of them hurriedly surrounded the doctor.
“Doctor, how is she?” Qiao Qing Hao’s anxiousness was written all over his face.
The doctor wiped off his sweat and said, “My body is too weak. It must have been a long time since I rested, right?”
Qiao Qing Hao nodded his head: “Indeed, you probably haven’t had a good rest during this period of time.” At the same time, he couldn’t help but feel relieved. If he just didn’t have a good rest, he should be able to rest for a few days. Chen Shu and Sheng Jue were also slightly relieved.
“However …” The doctor seemed to have something else to say and hesitated for a moment.
“But what? Doctor, tell me! ” Seeing the doctor’s hesitant appearance, an ominous premonition suddenly rose in Qiao Qing Hao’s heart.
The doctor knew that the people in front of him were not ordinary people, and the person lying inside was even the president of a large group. For a moment, he was slightly nervous, and said regretfully: “CEO Tao’s main disease is in her brain, we found a lump close to her eye! Furthermore, they are already beginning to suppress the optic nerve! ”
“What did you say?” Say it again! What do you mean a lump! “What will happen?” Qiao Qing Hao grabbed the doctor’s collar.
