The Beautiful Wife of the Whirlwind Marriage

1253 You Can’t Surpass Gu Industries

He looked up. “What do you guys want?”

Crooked Neck mocked in disbelief. “What do we want?” Chen Hui, you’re being ridiculous. We’ve known each other for so many years. Don’t you feel ashamed of your betrayal? Have you forgotten all the efforts we’ve put into this game, the meals we’ve skipped to write the codes, the constant tests, and all the nights we worked through for over a month before we got our template? To think you would give it to someone else just like that. How much did they offer, for you to not hesitate to sell us out?”

Chen Hui’s face turned red in embarrassment. But what else could he do when things have already taken this turn?

He said, “I really am regretful. I didn’t want this, but you guys don’t know who you’re facing.”

Crooked Neck asked, “How could we not? Anyone could just think and know it’s the Gu Industries, isn’t it? Why not just say it? Is it the Gu Industries or not?”

Yes, it was Gu Industries.

Chen Hui looked down. “Aren’t you afraid? Gu Industries is so powerful that there’s no way we can defeat them, not even Sister Che. Her collaboration with Kaisheng Group is nothing but just a collaboration. As soon as they do not see any value in us, will they still care about us? This game is only a small venture of theirs. They wouldn’t even bat an eyelid should a problem arise. We have no way of fighting back, alright.”

Crooked Neck grunted, “How do you know that we can’t win? It’s because of a rat like you that we’re in this lawsuit! If they didn’t get the template, we wouldn’t be having a case to fight!”

Chen Hui stared at him. “How would we win? Even if they didn’t use this, they would find some other ways against us. You think this game is the best, so it means you have the power? Do you think Sister Che has the power? Didn’t you see that woman that day? She is the real deal. All she has to do is to wave her hand and many clamored to do things for her. This isn’t something Sister Che can resolve easily. It’s not me. If they want to destroy you guys, all it takes is just a flick of the hand.”

KG replied, “Apart from this, what else do they know?”

“Nothing else...” Chen Hui replied.

Crooked Neck said, “There’s no way it’s nothing more. Look at you, you’ve become their lap dog, kneeling and begging at their command. How can there be nothing else?”

Chen Hui replied, “Yes, I knelt and begged, I’ve become their dog. Yes, they’ve given me a lot of money. Do you know what they’ve given me? A ten million dollar house, a Maserati, and each time I give any sort of information, no matter how minute, they’ll give me a few million, just like that! That’s why you guys can never beat them. It’s not because of anything but plainly because they have the affluence and the money. Do you guys even have either? Who has this kind of affluence? Do you guys still want to go against the Gu family? Just a few of you against them?”

“Ha... Ha.” Crooked Neck was boiling with rage. “A 10-million yuan house, a car that costs a few million yuan, plus a few million yuan cash, and you immediately jumped ship. I see that’s what our friendship is worth. You also think that our game is only worth as such.”

KG said, “Enough, Crooked Neck. Everyone has different thoughts. Since he feels that we’re only worth so much, then let’s just give him his share of the dividends and let him leave.”

Upon hearing that he would still get his dividends, Chen Hui looked up at once.

Crooked Neck replied, “Fine, give it to him. Give everything to him. We don’t need a person like him as our partner.”

KG replied, “In the future, this game will earn more, and we are the creators. Everything will have nothing to do with you, Chen Hui. You have betrayed your future. I hope all that money and the house would suffice in your road to come. Then again, that would have nothing to do with us.”

Crooked Neck looked angrily at Chen Hui. “Sign that you will leave our group and sell your shares. You can leave immediately.”

Chen Hui was very agreeable and said, “You guys said it. I will sign it soon. But, don’t think I’m stupid. I know you can never defeat Gu Industries. Do you really think this game can go far? Mark my words. Don’t regret when there’s an impossible future.”

Crooked Neck looked in disdain as Chen Hui left. He asked KG, “KG, what do we do now? All those things you mentioned... were they fake?”

KG nodded. “Yes, I didn’t leave any evidence that proves our innocence.”

Crooked Neck was disappointed. “Oh man, to see this kind of rat having his way out, I really hate it.”

Chen Hui made a call as soon as he walked out.

He mentioned that he got busted and that they had mentioned an imprint in the program.

He said, “Initially, I thought there might be. But now that I think about it, it’s likely they don’t have any evidence. It was just a bid to catch me with something they made up, leading me to believe that the evidence exists and I would go looking for it. I’m certain there isn’t, so you guys don’t have to worry.”

“Alright. You were too careless, so you actually got caught.”

“You guys said that I’ll get a huge payout in the end.”

“Sorry, what we said was, you would get a huge payout if we won. But now that you got caught, you can’t complete the task.”

“You... you’re saying there’s no payout anymore?”

“It’s your own fault. You can’t blame others.”

“You... you...”

Chen Hui was outraged.

On the bright side, they had already given quite a lot.

There was still a payout to be taken from KG the next day. It would probably be a sum he would never see in his life.

KG updated Lin Che about the matter.

Lin Che could only mutter, “Who would have thought?”

KG said, “He thinks we can’t defeat Gu Industries.”

“Oh, then he would be disappointed.” Lin Che replied, “Don’t worry, we don’t need to fight with them.”

“Is that so? Do you have a plan?”

“That’s right. Is he going to the office tomorrow?”

“Indeed.”

“Alright, I’ll go too.”

The next day, Chen Hui arrived at the office.

After signing the agreement, he would be leaving Genesis and leaving their game.

At this point, Chen Hui had come to a realization after an entire night of mulling things over. He deemed that this arrangement was just and fair, and so walked into the office with stride.

Crooked Neck said, “You’re here, traitor. You can sit your ass here.”

Chen Hui replied haughtily, “Don’t think you guys can smile for long. Enjoy your last few days here as rich people and continue living in your dreams. Anyway, it won’t last for long, since you will be knocked out by Gu Industries.”

As he spoke before putting his signature down, he heard Lin Che coming from behind. “Hold on.”

Chen Hui looked up.

Lin Che said, “Apologies, but you can’t sign this agreement.”

Chen Hui looked at her. “What do you mean by that?”

Lin Che replied, “This is considered a business fraud. You’re a criminal now. We will not give you your dividends and you have been automatically removed from the company’s registry. Also, you will have to be taken in for questioning.”

Chen Hui turned white. “You... What do you mean by this?!”

Lin Che replied, “Didn’t they teach you in school? Did you think it’s easy to be a traitor? That the money came without conditions? Sorry, but earning money has its risks.”

KG and the rest may not have known, but Lin Che would never let anyone take money just like that.
