She looked behind her and saw that Ma Zhong did not chase after her. She then took out her phone from her pocket and dialed a number.
The call went through.
Zhang Mengmeng anxiously asked, "Uncle Zhou, I'm sorry. It was a misunderstanding just now..."
"Miss, please don't say that. I understand what you are thinking. The reason why I personally brought people here is to invite you home. Your grandfather is very worried about you... "The voice of the middle-aged man in white Tang suit who was injured by Ma Zhong could be heard from the phone.
This middle-aged man was the Butler Zhou beside Zhang Mengmeng's grandfather.
" Go back and tell my grandfather that I still have some matters to attend to. We will talk about it when we get home. Where are you guys now? " Zhang Mengmeng asked with concern.
Butler Zhou replied, "We are bandaging in the emergency room of the People's Hospital in the city. Luckily, we were injured in the hospital. It is convenient here!"
"Are you alright?" Zhang Mengmeng asked anxiously.
"We are all professionally trained. It is just a small injury. It is not a problem." Butler Zhou answered truthfully.
Zhang Mengmeng apologized, "I am sorry. Which one of you was hurt just now? It was the bodyguard of my brother in the hospital. Last night, someone came to the hospital to assassinate you. He mistakenly thought that you were in the same gang as the two people who sneaked into the ward last night. So your attack was heavier, don't be angry... "
Butler Zhou said without hesitation, "If you say you're not angry, then it's a lie. However, that kid's skills are not bad. If he's by your side to protect you, we can be at ease!"
Zhang Mengmeng reminded, "Uncle Zhou, please help me keep my identity a secret."
"Don't worry, Miss. For your safety, I will not reveal your identity," Butler Zhou replied. "Not only will I not reveal your identity, I will also continue to send people to protect you in the dark."
"Thank you!" Zhang Mengmeng thanked him and hung up the phone.
After talking to Butler Zhou on the phone, she found out that they were not in a big deal. Zhang Mengmeng was relieved. She had planned to go to the emergency room to see them personally. But she was also afraid that if she delayed too long, it would cause Wu Xu and Ma Zhong to suspect her. She walked into the hospital's Little Merchandize Shop and casually bought some things to go upstairs.
...
Not long after Zhang Mengmeng left the ward, a medical staff walked in with a copy of the Rongcheng Night News and handed it to Wu Xu.
Wu Xu flipped open the newspaper and saw a striking headline on the front page: The chairman of Gu's Group died in a car accident and Gu Xiaohui succeeded as the chairman of the company.
The article briefly described the cause of Gu Yuming's death and detailed Gu Xiaohui's resume. It also included the series of systems and measures she had taken after she succeeded as the chairman of the company. The purpose of boldly using a newcomer was to make the vice chairman of the company, Hou Guangsheng, the head of the company, the senior statesmen.
In the article, it also mentioned Gu Xiaohui during the company meeting. With the reason that Wu Xu had left the company for no reason and had lost contact, he appointed Li Zhi as the Business Department's minister. Obviously, she was ostracizing the former director of Business Department, Wu Xu. She was going to kick him out of the company.
After reading the article, Wu Xu felt emotional.
Because he knew the situation in the company too well. Him being fired by Gu Xiaohui was a small matter, but the key was that Gu Xiaohui had just taken office. She was ready to make a move on Hou Guangsheng and the others before she could gain a firm foothold in the company. It was no different from using eggs to touch stones.
When Gu Yuming was still alive, he had thought of removing Hou Guangsheng from his position many times. It was because of his influence in the company that he did not do anything to ___. Gu Xiaohui had just started working and wanted to take him down. She was overestimating herself. She was asking for trouble.
If Hou Guangsheng retaliated against Gu Xiaohui, the company would definitely experience a civil war. If that happened, not only would the company not be good, it would also become very bad.
The key was that Hou Guangsheng had been coveting the position of chairman of Gu's Group for a long time. Furthermore, he was suspected of misappropriating the company's funds. If Gu Xiaohui forced Hou Guangsheng into a corner, Hou Guangsheng was desperate and wanted to kill Gu Xiaohui, and that would be troublesome.
Remembering that he was assassinated in the ward last night, he began to worry about Gu Xiaohui's safety.
Although Gu Xiaohui was so heartless to him, they had not divorced yet. They were legally husband and wife now. Gu Yuming had just been killed not long ago. He still did not want anything to happen to Gu Xiaohui. If anything happened to Gu Xiaohui... Wu Xu still felt guilty from the bottom of his heart.
Therefore, he said to Ma Zhong, who had just gone through an intense battle, who was standing in front of his bed.
"Mr Ma, I want to trouble you to do something for me!"
"What is it?" Ma Zhong asked eagerly.
Wu Xu pointed to Gu Xiaohui's profile picture in the newspaper and said, "Please go to Gu's Group to protect the safety of the new chairman, Gu Xiaohui."
"Does their company not have security?" Ma Zhong frowned and asked.
"Those guys are just a bunch of good-for-nothings. How can they guarantee Gu Xiaohui's safety?" Wu Xu asked thoughtfully.
Ma Zhong did not know about the matter between Wu Xu and Gu Xiaohui. He carefully looked at Gu Xiaohui in the newspaper and frowned. He asked in confusion,
"It seems that this is a very powerful woman. She must have the protection of an expert. Why do you want me to protect her?"
"Because, up until now, she is still my wife!" Since Ma Zhong was willing to use his life to protect him, Wu Xu had nothing to hide.
"Ah?" Ma Zhong widened his eyes. He asked, "So you are the son-in-law of the chairman of the Gu's Group, Gu Yuming?"
"Now, I don't know if it will be in the future." Wu Xu said faintly.
Ma Zhong pretended to be enlightened and said, "No wonder you have so much money to buy the Permanent Tai Machinery Factory. I thought you were a rich young master..."
Wu Xu replied, "I am not a young master from a rich family. I am just like you, an ordinary person. However, Gu Xiaohui does not know about me buying the Permanent Tai Machinery Factory. Please keep it a secret for me!"
"You are my mistress now. If I do not keep it a secret for you, who will I keep it a secret from?" Ma Zhong said confidently, "Tell me, how do you want me to protect her?"
Wu Xu said, "As long as you spy on her in the dark, if she is in danger, you will protect her. If she finds out about you, you must not let her know. I sent you there."
"Why? Is there a misunderstanding between you two?" Ma Zhong asked curiously.
Wu Xu did not know how to answer. "This matter is really hard to explain. I will tell you in the future when I have time. Just do as I ask!"
"I can do as you ask and secretly protect Gu Xiaohui's safety. But when I leave, who will protect you?" Ma Zhong asked worriedly.
"Don't worry. I will take care of his safety!" At this time, a firm voice came from the door of Wu Xu's ward.
Wu Xu and Ma Zhong were shocked at the same time. They looked at each other and looked at the door of the ward together.
