Chapter 392: Chapter 392: Celestial Fortune’s Crisis

Walking along the surrounding streets, Wu Hanyang rummaged through the trash cans.

In this state, basically no one would pay attention to him; if they saw him, they would unconsciously steer clear. Yet, Wu Hanyang’s gaze was observing his surroundings, though his expression appeared natural.

He looked very old, his face naturally dull, making it unlikely for anyone to notice he was watching his surroundings.

"Alright, I’ll send over the video after finishing it by eleven or so." While picking up plastic bottles, Wu Hanyang suddenly looked towards a spot where someone was making a call.

Wu Hanyang happened to hear this sentence, but he didn’t think much of it and continued wandering around.

However, his attention was caught by a young man holding a backpack, which clearly held a camera, as the youth was filming something.

"What’s this young man going to film?" Wu Hanyang pondered to himself.

"And what’s at eleven?"

He actually came here often; there was nothing much to film here, so he found it a bit strange.

But that was all, as the young man didn’t do anything suspicious.

Time quickly reached eleven, and at this moment, a few traffic officers came to the front of the Celestial Fortune clothing store, carrying lunch boxes, ready to eat there.

And Wu Hanyang noticed that after these traffic officers appeared, the young man with the camera suddenly looked that way, a hint of excitement seemingly appearing on his face.

"Police officers eating, eleven o’clock, filming..."

Wu Hanyang pondered to himself and suddenly remembered the incidents his coworkers talked about at a Starbucks in the United States.

Thinking of this, he quickly moved to a spot and called his daughter.

"Dad, what’s up?" Wu Hanyang’s daughter, Wu Xinran, worked at an ordinary clothing store selling off-brand clothes, earning only three thousand yuan even with full attendance and other bonuses included.

Sometimes when she made mistakes, her salary got deducted, leaving her with less than three thousand in the end.

Wu Xinran’s biggest hope was to work at the Celestial Fortune clothing store.

If she could get in, she could earn a lot of money and save for her younger sister’s treatment.

As Wu Hanyang’s words came through the phone, Wu Xinran’s expression visibly changed.

"Filming?"

Her face changed, thoughts racing through her mind.

"Okay, Dad, got it." Wu Xinran then ended the call.

She hesitated slightly, then dialed a number to the HR department of Celestial Fortune.

She had previously interviewed at Celestial Fortune, so she had the HR department’s number.

She quickly explained the situation, and upon hearing Wu Xinran’s words, the HR person immediately reported it up to the HR manager without delay.

Thus, notifications spread quickly, and soon Qin Yun received a phone call.

At that moment, Qin Yun was chatting with Qin Xiaotao, who was on break today, sitting on a bus. Because the car was company property, Qin Xiaotao left it for others to use while he was off.

He sometimes preferred taking the bus, enjoying the scenery along the way.

Next to Qin Xiaotao was a girl who seemed familiar — Hu Shanshan’s cousin, Zhou Yue.

Moreover, Zhou Yue was leaning against his shoulder, apparently asleep, her hair brushing against Qin Xiaotao’s neck, tickling him slightly.

Despite being together, they weren’t a couple. After Zhou Yue’s birthday, Qin Xiaotao treated her to a meal during his time off to thank her for the cake.

Zhou Yue reciprocated with another treat.

Thus, they often treated each other to meals.

Last night, Zhou Yue, a homebody, stayed up past midnight on her phone. After sitting on the bus for a while, she fell asleep, leaning on Qin Xiaotao’s shoulder.

It was the first time she’d leaned on his shoulder.

"Xiaotao, the HR manager is calling; I’ll stop chatting now," Qin Yun said with a smile.

"Alright," Qin Xiaotao replied.

He glanced at Zhou Yue leaning against his shoulder. Zhou Yue wasn’t as pretty as Hu Shanshan and had a completely different personality.

She was a typical homebody, loved eating, playing with her phone, and gaming. Yet, seeing her brought Qin Xiaotao a rare sense of calm.

In their interactions, he had no intention of pleasing her. Occasionally, he might buy her something that delighted Zhou Yue, prompting her to gift him something in return.

He genuinely enjoyed this simple, unpretentious way of relating.

"Slurp..."

As he watched, Zhou Yue smacked her lips twice, seemingly dreaming of something tasty.

Seeing this, Qin Xiaotao couldn’t help but smile.

Meanwhile, Qin Yun received the phone call.

Upon hearing just a few words, his expression changed dramatically.

"What? Someone plans to frame Celestial Fortune?"

Learning that the police officers were eating near the Celestial Fortune clothing store and hearing about the peculiar behaviors of someone with a camera, and the reference to filming at eleven, instantly reminded him of a notorious past incident, the Starbucks in the U.S. affair.

The police were accused and driven away for affecting Starbucks’ image for merely eating nearby.

This incident sparked public outrage, driving Starbucks’ reputation down a self-destructive path.

The repercussions were significant, and now, some were apparently planning to mimic the event.

Though nothing had occurred yet, there was a distinct potential!

Even if there was only a 1% chance, Qin Yun was committed to stopping it!

"I understand," he said.

Ending the call, Qin Yun immediately contacted Qin Xiaotao.

"Yun, what’s up?"

Hearing the phone, Qin Xiaotao saw Qin Yun was calling and quickly answered.

The sound of the phone woke Zhou Yue abruptly. She found herself leaning on Qin Xiaotao’s shoulder, which embarrassed her, and she quickly sat upright.

Upon hearing Qin Xiaotao speak, she knew it was the boss, Qin Yun, and remained silent.

"Xiaotao, the clothing store..."

Qin Yun quickly filled him in: "Go there, keep that person contained, and we’ll keep in mobile contact."

Qin Xiaotao happened to be nearby.

Hearing Qin Yun, Qin Xiaotao was startled and hastily said, "Alright, Yun!"

His expression turned serious.

"What’s going on, Director Qin?" Zhou Yue asked, curious and puzzled.

"There’s a situation at the clothing store. I’ll get off now," Qin Xiaotao swiftly explained.

Face changing, Zhou Yue quickly responded, "Director Qin, I’ll get off too. Maybe I could help."

Qin Xiaotao didn’t object because as he finished explaining, the bus reached the next stop.
