Chapter 169: Three Options
Lin Yu nodded. “I heard you talking about an operation when I came in just now. What kind of operation?”
Gu Chu did not think much of it. “After an examination, they found a tumor growing on my small intestine. It requires an operation to remove it. It’s not too serious. It’ll be fine once it’s removed.”
Lin Yu did not know the latest news, so he asked, “You’re pregnant, so you can’t have an operation, right?”
The corner of Gu Chu’s mouth twitched. “Actually, I’m not pregnant.”
Lin Yu was stunned. “What?”
Gu Chu laughed dryly. “It’s just that my stomach and intestines aren’t feeling well. It was just a misunderstanding.”
Lin Yu rubbed his fingers.
He had not slept the whole night. The blood vessels in his eyes seemed to have completely faded at this moment.
His tone was a little more relaxed than when he came in. “You haven’t recovered from your infection. Can you do the surgery now?”
Gu Chu said that it was not a problem. “I’ll do it after I recover.”
“I remember that you have a cousin who is a gastroenterologist. Is he doing the surgery?”
“He will be the chief surgeon.” The more Gu Chu talked about it, the more her head hurt. “Let’s talk about something else. The more I talk about this, the more scared I am.”
The nurse came back. Feng Jia had just asked her to buy some porridge. The nurse asked, “I was late just now. The porridge is a little cold. Do you still want to eat it?”
Feng Jia reached out. “Give it to me.”
He first pressed his wrist against the the bowl to test the temperature before feeding it to Gu Chu.
Lin Yu also pulled out a chair and sat down. “Have you seen the latest news?”
Gu Chu really didn’t have time to read the news, so she asked, “What news?”
As she asked, she picked up her phone and scrolled through it.
“The netizens said that the girl’s body was underground for 20 years. If we have any conscience, we shouldn’t disturb her spirit and should stop work,” Lin Yu summarized for her.
Li Xiu’s case became popular because of the fire. All kinds of rumors were spread on the internet. While the netizens condemned Li Xiu and her family, they sympathized more with the girl who was murdered. Therefore, there were also voices of opposition to the Sky Garden Project.
There was even encouragement to boycott the Sky Garden Project.
“There must be someone behind this, right?” Otherwise, why would they be so unified? It looked like they bought a troll army. Gu Chu frowned, “Is someone jealous, so they secretly bought a troll army to stop our project?”
Lin Yu nodded. “It’s indeed our competitor, but since the wind has already started blowing, we need to properly handle it. Otherwise, it won’t be good for the project.”
Feng Jia listened by the side and fed her a mouthful of porridge from time to time. Gu Chu swallowed and said, “What did the public relations department say?”
Lin Yu replied, “They came up with three possible solutions.”
“First, let the girl’s family come forward and tell them how they’ve been searching for their daughter all these years. If it wasn’t for the project, who knows how long they would continue searching. Then, we’ll use the company’s name to compensate them.”
Gu Chu frowned. “This is an old trick.”
“The second plan is quite novel,” Lin Yu said. “Murder mystery games have been quite popular recently. When the matter has died down in the future, we’ll use the site as the location for a murder mystery game. This should be able to attract the young people.”
Gu Chu had just had a gastroscopy, and her throat felt a little uncomfortable. Now that she heard this rotten idea, she almost choked. “Isn’t this too disgusting?”
“Then there’s only one option left.”
Lin Yu continued, “You were the victim of this incident to begin with, and it was you who first noticed that there was something wrong with Li Xiu. The reporters wanted to interview you. If you’re willing to come forward and tell us what happened, then all the speculations will stop.”
The headline of the news would be that the project manager of Sky Garden, Ms. Gu, had accidentally solved a cold case.
Sky Garden would also take advantage of this popularity.
Feng Jia had already sensed that something was wrong and glanced at Lin Yu.
After Gu Chu ate a mouthful of porridge, she finally reacted. “Lin Yu, are you scheming against me? The first two plans were just a front.”
Lin Yu could not help but laugh out loud.
Indeed, it was all a ploy.
Gu Chu was speechless. “CEO Lin, you’re really good at holding back the truth!”
Lin Yu coughed lightly. “But the third plan is indeed the most feasible one.”
That day, when she had just woken up, Lin Yu had asked her if she wanted to accept an interview with the reporters. She had rejected it back then, but now she really did not want to.
