"It's truly despicable. I never expected it—I always trusted him, yet now he has betrayed me like this. I even said he's lived his whole life quietly and without seeking conflict, but I never imagined he was secretly working on such a big plan behind the scenes."

"Sir, I know this is no small matter, but with this evidence, you can easily kick him out of the board, or even hand him over to the judicial authorities. However, regarding all of this, I believe, sir, that you have the discernment to handle it."

"Alright, I understand. Ye Chen, you are a smart person. You didn't hand this matter over to Guo Hongyu because if you did, that boy is reckless and impulsive. He might ruin everything. But don't worry, I will manage this carefully. In at most 10 days, I will have reviewed everyone involved in the company."

"Actually, this is exactly the result I wanted. This way, it benefits all of us. From now on, Hongyu can thoroughly manage his own business and run his company."

"Well, Ye Chen, no matter what, this time you indeed helped me a lot. The issues I couldn't resolve over the past few years, you unexpectedly helped me solve in just a few days. It seems Li Fu was right; you are an exceptional talent, and moreover, to me, you are undoubtedly a lucky star."

"Haha, sir, you are too kind. Previously, you helped me quite a lot too. Well, since the company's matters are temporarily settled, I'd like to request a long vacation from you, sir."

"Oh, are you planning to handle something else? Is it about Lin Yaru's family background?"

"That's right. I must investigate it. Only when this matter is resolved will everything come to a satisfactory conclusion. Otherwise, I always feel like a heavy stone is hanging in my heart."

"Actually, things are just like this sometimes. Some things, if chosen this way, will eventually need to be let go. Alright, I'll grant you a long vacation; you don't need to worry about the company's issues here anymore. Exhaust your abilities to assist Lin Yaru and thoroughly resolve her family matters. Let's find out what exactly happened back then."

"Alright, I understand. Don't worry; I'll investigate this matter thoroughly. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."

"Alright, be careful on your way."

After finishing his words, Guo Tao stood up, waved at Ye Chen, and finally, Ye Chen quickly stood up and left.

After leaving here this time, he truly felt much more relieved both physically and emotionally.

It was as if he had been carrying two heavy burdens on his shoulders. Now, one burden has been lifted, and the other seems much less significant.

He took out his phone and directly called Anying.

These past couple of days, he didn't know how Anying's island plan was progressing, but according to Anying, she has been meticulously fortifying her defenses. He believes that they should soon have a result."

"Hello, Anying, where are you?"

"Oh, I'm still at the company. What's up?"

"Here's the thing. I've just been granted leave by the old man. I mentioned that I need a long vacation, and now, we need to do everything we can to hasten the island plan. How's your preparation going over there?"

"I've got everything ready over here. There are only two small details left, and I estimate that by this afternoon, before it gets dark, we should see results. We're ready to set off anytime."

"Alright, once things are wrapped up over there, come back home immediately to meet me. Then, tomorrow morning, we'll set out as soon as possible. We can't delay this matter any longer; all equipment must be ready. Understand?"

"Don't worry, I have everything arranged. See you then."

After saying this, Anying hurriedly hung up the phone. Now, she truly seems like a crucial part of him.

Sometimes, he thinks that truly, Anying is his real lucky star.

If he hadn't met Anying back then, things wouldn't have progressed so smoothly now.

Therefore, Anying is an invaluable talent to him.

After returning home, he heard noises coming from inside a room, knowing that today Lin Yaru was supposed to have rested during the day and would be on a night shift.

Outside Lin Yaru's room, he took a deep breath and then gently knocked on the door.

Actually, when he opened the door earlier, Lin Yaru had already heard it. However, she was in the room organizing her things and hadn't had a chance to ask who it was.

"Come in."

With that simple invitation, Ye Chen pushed open the door and walked in directly.

In the past two days, Lin Yaru was completely unaware of the events happening within the Guo Group.

She only knew they had been busy, but as for the final outcome, she was clueless.

"Why did you come back at this time?"

Seeing him suddenly appear, to be honest, Lin Yaru felt a bit surprised.

Since he got involved in this matter, he rarely showed up here during the day. Even when he did, it was often in the dead of night when Ye Chen's presence could be seen.

But today, seeing him show up like this was quite rare, so Lin Yaru quickly set aside her tasks and walked over to him.

"Haha, because everything's been successfully concluded over there, I've taken an early vacation today."

"What? Vacation? What do you mean? Are you not going back to work at the company?"

Lin Yaru was a bit puzzled.
