Chapter 605 Are you available now?
After hanging up the phone, Qi Xiaoke sat on the office chair and fell into deep thought.
She knew that this decision was not only related to the future of the Coco platform, but also might affect Lin Yuan's career.
She picked up the phone and hesitated whether to call Lin Yuan and tell him the news.
At this moment, Qin Xuelian opened the door and walked into Gu Yexing's office.
When she saw Gu Yexing sitting at his desk with a serious expression, she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with Qi Xiaoke?"
Gu Yexing raised his head and glanced at Qin Xuelian, and said lightly: "She is still hesitating. It seems that she still has some feelings for Lin Yuan."
Qin Xuelian walked to Gu Yexing and gently massaged his shoulders: "Don't worry, I believe Qi Xiaoke will make the right choice in the end. After all, no one wants to offend the Gu Group."
Gu Yexing nodded, but still frowned: "I hope so. However, we still have to make other preparations. If Qi Xiaoke doesn't cooperate, we will directly use our own platform to challenge Lin Yuan."
A glint flashed in Qin Xuelian's eyes: "I understand. I will immediately start preparations to ensure that we can suppress Lin Yuan in all aspects."
Gu Yexing turned around and looked into Qin Xuelian's eyes: "Xuelian, this operation is very important to us. I hope you can go all out and don't let me down."
Qin Xuelian smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, Ye Xing. I will definitely let Lin Yuan know the consequences of offending the Gu Group."
The two looked at each other, their eyes shining with determination.
Gu Yexing sat in the office, tapping his fingers on the table. He waited for Qi Xiaoke's reply, but the patience in his heart was disappearing little by little.
Suddenly, he stood up abruptly and strode towards the door.
"Qin Xuelian, come with me." Gu Yexing said coldly.
Qin Xuelian immediately followed, and the two took a special elevator directly to the underground parking lot. Gu Yexing drove the car himself, making a screeching sound as the wheels rolled over the asphalt road.
Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the headquarters building of Coco Platform. Gu Yexing strode into the hall and went straight to Qi Xiaoke's office.
Qi Xiaoke was discussing work with several employees. When she saw Gu Yexing suddenly appeared, she stood up in surprise: "Mr. Gu, why are you here?"
Gu Yexing glanced at the other people in the office coldly: "Get out."
When only the three of them were left in the office, Gu Yexing's face suddenly turned gloomy.
He stared at Qi Xiaoke, his voice low and full of threats: "Xiao Ke, I gave you time to think about it, not to delay it. Now, I want a clear answer."
Qi Xiaoke felt the pressure, and she tried to explain: "Mr. Gu, I really need more time. This decision affects the interests of many people, and I cannot make a choice rashly."
Gu Yexing sneered: "More time? Are you waiting for Lin Yuan to give you instructions?"
Qi Xiaoke's eyes widened in surprise: "What? No, I didn't."
Gu Yexing interrupted her and raised his voice suddenly: "Stop pretending to be stupid! Did you deliberately let Lin Yuan frame our Gu Group? Did you jointly plan the fake health products?"
Qi Xiaoke felt dizzy. She didn't expect that Gu Yexing would suddenly make such an accusation. She hurriedly denied: "Mr. Gu, you misunderstood. I definitely have no such idea, let alone doing anything together with Lin Yuan." Gu Yexing approached Qi Xiaoke, his eyes full of threats: "Really? Then Prove it to me. Agree to my request now, or else."
He paused and sneered at the corner of his mouth: "Otherwise, I will make the Coco platform bankrupt within a week. You should know very well that I have this ability."
Qi Xiaoke felt a chill coming over him. She knew that Gu Yexing was not joking. With the strength of the Gu Group, it was indeed capable of destroying the Coco Platform.
She bit her lip and tried to steady her voice: "Mr. Gu, I really don't have any evil intentions. If you think I have done something wrong, I am willing to correct it. But please give me some time. "
Gu Yexing interrupted her: "There is no time. Now, give me an answer immediately, immediately."
Qi Xiaoke felt her throat tighten, and she knew she had no choice. Finally, she nodded with difficulty: "Okay, Mr. Gu. I promise you."
Gu Yexing's expression softened slightly, but his eyes were still cold: "Very good. Remember your promise today. If you dare to go back on it, you will bear the consequences."
After saying that, he turned and left, leaving Qi Xiaoke standing alone in the office, his face pale and his hands trembling slightly.
Qi Xiaoke stood there with his hands clenched and his heart beating like a drum. She took a deep breath and tried to calm her inner turmoil. Gu Yexing's threats are still ringing in his ears, and the future of Coco Platform seems to hang on a thread. She knew she had to act quickly.
Qi Xiaoke picked up the phone and dialed Lin Yuan's number. After the phone rang a few times, Lin Yuan's voice came from the other end: "Hello, Xiaoke? What's wrong?"
Qi Xiaoke bit his lip and tried to make his voice sound calm: "Lin Yuan, can we meet? There are some things that I need to talk to you in person."
Lin Yuan seemed to notice something unusual in her tone and asked, "What happened? You don't sound right."
Qi Xiaoke forced a smile: "It's nothing big, I just want to discuss some work-related matters with you. Is it convenient for you now?"
"Of course, I'm always free." Lin Yuan agreed readily, "How about we meet in the coffee shop? It's the one we often went to last time."
Qi Xiaoke nodded: "Okay, see you in half an hour."
After hanging up the phone, Qi Xiaoke sighed deeply. She knew that the next conversation would be very difficult.
Half an hour later, Qi Xiaoke pushed open the door of the coffee shop and saw Lin Yuan sitting in the corner waiting for her. He waved at her with a warm smile on his face.
Qi Xiaoke walked over and sat opposite Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan handed her a cup of coffee and asked with concern: "Xiaoke, what's wrong? You look tired."
Qi Xiaoke held the warm coffee cup, took a deep breath, and began to tell Gu Yexing's request and threats. Her voice was low and hoarse, as if every word was carrying a heavy burden.
Lin Yuan listened quietly, his brows frowning more and more. When Qi Xiaoke finished speaking, he was silent for a moment, then whispered: "Xiaoke, I'm sorry for putting you in this predicament."
Qi Xiaoke shook his head: "It's not your fault. I was too naive and didn't expect Gu Yexing to use this method."
Lin Yuan's eyes became firm: "Don't worry, Xiaoke. I will handle this matter."
Qi Xiaoke looked up at him in surprise: "How are you going to deal with it?"
