Chapter 309: Chapter 308: You’re Not Ashamed, But I’m Afraid of Dirtying My Mouth

Two hours passed.

There was still no movement from Douhu’s side.

This meant they were just treating this incident as an opportunity for their own future development.

’Alright, looks like I really will be able to buy this company back tomorrow for a rock-bottom price.’

Lin Feng sighed to himself.

He truly felt the world was too good to him.

Ever since he got the system, none of the opponents he’d faced were a match for him. This must be what it feels like to be undefeated!

This night was, after all, no ordinary night.

「The next morning.」

When a blissfully happy Jin Taian finally crawled out of bed, he steeled himself and picked up his phone to seriously look at the barrage of messages from last night.

"Fuck!"

But at this point, Jin Taian had no time to be shocked.

Douhu had already descended into total chaos.

All the directors had resigned en masse.

Yes, it had happened that very night.

After the directors sat down and sounded each other out, they finally made their decision.

Their careers were their livelihood; there was no need to throw their entire lives away for a boss who had absolutely no sense of risk management!

And with the directors’ departure, the pillars of each department also submitted their resignations one after another.

Now, even the head of Human Resources had quit.

The remaining HR staff stared at the hundreds of resignation emails in their inboxes.

They couldn’t help but sigh deeply, at a complete loss for what to do.

By the time Jin Taian finally rushed to the company,

the normally bustling office building was already deserted. Both the private offices and the general workstations were largely empty.

"These ungrateful bastards! When things were fine, they all ran to me to pledge their loyalty."

"Saying they’d go down with the ship, and now, over a little thing like this, they all bail on me!"

"Let me tell you, I have some pull in this industry! I’ll make sure you all learn the consequences of messing with me!"

Jin Taian cursed viciously.

But the problem before him was still extremely severe.

His right- and left-hand men had all left, and those who remained were basically just slackers coasting along.

Although Jin Taian usually favored those who flattered him, it didn’t mean he couldn’t tell who was competent and who was worthless.

But the situation now was that most of the capable people had left!

"Well, well, it looks like our Boss Jin Taian isn’t looking so good today!"

"Yesterday, your Douhu really shook up the entire live-streaming industry. It’s not easy for a platform to become *that* famous, is it?"

"Have you seen the news today? Even CCTV called you out by name. You’ve received national-level attention, you know?"

Just then, a flippant, mocking voice drifted into the office.

"Lin Feng! I knew it! I knew someone was deliberately plotting against me!"

"All you want is to acquire my company! What good does this do you? Now it’s deserted and infamous. You think you can gain anything from this?"

Jin Taian looked up, glaring viciously at Lin Feng, who was standing at his office door with a derisive smirk.

"To be honest, I did think about that at first,"

"but then I realized if this broken company of yours were handed to me now, I’d have a hell of a lot of work to do."

"Besides, everyone knows about your so-called ’unspoken rules’ now. I really have no interest in such a tarnished brand!"

Lin Feng shook his head lightly, a sneer on his face. He plopped down in front of the luxurious desk, propping his feet up on it.

"Heh, let me tell you, don’t try to provoke me. You’re just a kid. When I was out making my way in the world, you were still in diapers."

Jin Taian was clearly infuriated by Lin Feng’s flippant gesture!

"I’m telling you, even if this company dies in my hands, I will never let you have it! You’re just..."

"Sun Qing has been taken in for questioning."

"..."

Lin Feng’s single sentence made Jin Taian break out in a cold sweat.

Jin Taian knew, of course, that some of the things they did violated labor laws.

But that wasn’t the deadliest part. Although they might have heavily exploited their streamers,

he had never used any dirty tricks on them.

But if he and Sun Qing were to be thoroughly investigated, their crimes would lead to more than just fines. They might even lose their freedom for the rest of their lives.

"What exactly do you know?"

Looking at Lin Feng’s confident and self-satisfied expression,

Jin Taian understood that his dirty little secrets were already in the other man’s hands!

"Do I really need to spell out all the rotten things you’ve done?"

"Even if you’re not disgusted by it, I’m afraid it would dirty my mouth to say it. I expect the nice policemen will be coming out of the elevator in about three minutes. You have three minutes to say your last words."

"I won’t fulfill them for you, of course, but you can at least get it off your chest."

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes, a half-smile on his face as he watched the man who was now scared out of his wits!

However triumphant he was last night was how terrified he was today!

People are always like this.

When things are going smoothly, they never bother to preen their feathers.

Even fatal flaws seem trivial to them.

It’s only when their schemes are exposed that they feel remorse, but by then, it’s too late!

THUD!

"I’m begging you!"

A man in his forties, once so flushed with success, actually dropped to his knees before a teenager.

He slammed his forehead against the ground again and again, as if the louder the sound, the more likely the young man before him would act like a merciful Bodhisattva, solving all his problems and turning his misfortune into good luck.

But Lin Feng was no Bodhisattva.

And even if he were, a Bodhisattva wouldn’t show mercy to someone so thoroughly wicked!

Lin Feng sighed helplessly.

He stood up, shedding all his previous frivolity.

"I always thought you’d be a respectable opponent."

"Even yesterday, after I found out about all your rotten dealings, I still thought you would maintain your pride, even with disaster looming. But look at you now!"

Lin Feng lowered his gaze, glancing at the trembling Jin Taian prostrated on the floor.

"I misjudged my opponent!"
