Chapter 606 — Ruining His Reputation
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
"Hmm..." Li Cihua sank into thought. "We should pick the spot where Gu Pengzhan is weakest, the place easiest to strike. That way we can quickly probe Gu Pengzhan's bottom line, and at the same time see whether Wei Zhao has recovered his strength..."
"Damn it! If only we could take care of Gu Pengzhan and Wei Zhao together, I've just about had all I can stomach!" Zhao Qibing had been in a foul temper of late; after all, lying in bed with a broken leg was hardly a pleasant thing.
"The Gu Group has a great many holdings. We should find one that is relatively weak, the one most prone to trouble, and strike there!" Li Cihua began to mutter to himself.
Young Master Bing did not disturb him. After all, Zhao Qibing was far less familiar with the Gu Group than Li Cihua was; he did not even know what businesses the Gu Group had under its wing, and so at this moment he could only wait eagerly for Li Cihua to come up with an idea.
"Su Jiaonang, get in here!" Since thinking it through alone was getting him nowhere, Li Cihua called Su Jiaonang in as well.
But Su Jiaonang was hardly a formidable man either; when it came to playing at intrigue, he was not even a match for Li Cihua.
The two of them racked their brains for a long while without producing a single plan, which infuriated Zhao Qibing. "You two useless trash! You can't even handle a trifle like this! Keep thinking — I refuse to believe we can't deal with one Gu Pengzhan!"
"Calm yourself, Young Master Bing!" Su Jiaonang said cautiously. "Brother Cihua, why don't we send for Jin Gubang and Zhong Fabai? Jin Gubang used to be with the Gu Group — he knows far more about it than we do! And Zhong Fabai seems a rather sinister type as well. There is strength in numbers! What do you say, Young Master Bing?"
"Fine. Li Cihua, call Jin Gubang and Zhong Fabai at once and tell them to get over here!" Young Master Bing agreed without a moment's thought. He could not wait a single instant longer; he wanted revenge on Wei Zhao.
When Jin Gubang and Zhong Fabai heard that Young Master Bing wanted to see them, they rushed over at once, frantic with haste. They knew that Wei Zhao had wounded Uncle Zhu and crippled Young Master Bing's leg, yet they did not think Wei Zhao would live much longer.
What sort of man was Young Master Bing? Wei Zhao had actually broken his leg — how could Young Master Bing possibly let him off?
So when Li Cihua told the two of them that Young Master Bing meant to move against Wei Zhao and the Gu Group, they knew their earlier guess had been correct.
"Dealing with Gu Pengzhan — that's my specialty!" Jin Gubang said as soon as he had heard them out. "If you want something that will catch the media's eye and drag the Gu Group's name through the mud, then among all their holdings, we can start with the school!"
"The school? Fourth High School?" Li Cihua was slightly taken aback.
"That's right, the school!" Jin Gubang said. "Right now, if something happens to students at school, that's a major incident! The media will hound it without mercy, and public opinion will swing to one side, cursing Gu Pengzhan as a black-hearted entrepreneur who actually dared to set his sights on students! By then, even if they want to make amends, it will depend on what the incident was. What we need to do is engineer an accident they can neither remedy nor recover from — and then our goal is achieved!"
"Exactly!" Hearing Jin Gubang's words, Li Cihua's eyes lit up. Yes — if something happened at Gu Pengzhan's school, how could the students' parents ever let it go? It would be a real headache for them! But what sort of incident could bring trouble to a school?
"Go on — what should we do?" Zhao Qibing nodded in appreciation as well. It seemed this subordinate Jin Gubang had not been taken in for nothing.
