CHAPTER 59

The storm was completely suppressed from then on. When Han Jun came back from City E, he told her about the follow-up. “The other party got angry and threatened the person involved. The person involved went to the police station to report the case. There was a recording as evidence, and the other party was temporarily detained. But the guy was quite single, and he completely denied the boss behind him.
He said he was originally an employee of Rainbow, and after being fired, he held a grudge against us, so he targeted and framed us. The content in the recorder is also very rigorous, and the people behind it cannot be implicated. ”

“So, he is the one who takes the blame for this?”

“This should be.”

“Normal. Our competition with Japanese capital is long-lasting. As the old saying goes, competitors are enemies.”

“Well. It doesn’t matter. We won this battle completely. Our market share increased, and our brand became more famous. The opponent must be gritting his teeth in anger behind the TV. His actions have helped us. He lost people and money, but our brand became more famous. He lost this time.”

“Quality, taxation, and key points must be grasped, and the other party must not be given an opportunity to take advantage of them. The other small tricks are not acceptable. We will have professional public relations in the future, and when the image of domestic brands is fully established, that is, when Japanese capital will fade away, We will not only compete with them for the domestic market, but we will also begin to expand our overseas sales channels to compete with them in all aspects.”

“Okay.”

Han Jun nodded. This is not the old days. In the old days , people dared to fight and kill and use force to force people. Now he has to pay the price for doing such a small thing. The key now is to stand firm and compete for market share. It would be more painful to let him not have a piece of cake than to let him go to jail.

Taking away someone’s wealth is like killing their parents. The business world is a battlefield without the smoke of gunpowder. It is a protracted war. Her usual approach is to strengthen herself rather than get entangled with others. Strengthening yourself is weakening the enemy.

As long as you are still on the battlefield (market), the enemy will not disappear. Instead of wasting time entangled with anyone, it is better to strengthen yourself and not be afraid of wind and rain. Otherwise, you kill the wolf and turn around to find a tiger next to you. When you run out of strength, you lose the ability to fight.

Of course, if you catch the handle, you have to make the other party pay the price. He has to throw out the car to save the king. It costs a lot to appease him behind the scenes.

As the two were talking, Xiao Liu came in with a bunch of stuff in her hands. “The group company we were planning to set up has been approved by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. The seal has been changed, but the public account is still the same as before.
Also, our bid has been prepared; please take a look, boss. This is a good project to make money. After it is built, we can keep a few floors for our own use and rent out the rest. We can just wait for the rent to be collected in a year. The bidding will be at the beginning of next month, so we must be fully prepared. ”

“I’ll take a look at it.”

“Okay, I’ll put them all here for you.”

This battle was a great victory. The subsequent orders were delivered one by one, funds began to flow back, and all previous debts were paid off. After the New Year, when spring came and the flowers bloomed, she discussed with her husband that it was time to renovate the villa.

“The house is ready for renovation. I guess our house will be demolished soon, so we’ll have a place to live when we move.”

“OK.”

Shen Haiyang put down the book and kissed his wife’s energetic face. The factory has overcome another hurdle and has become stronger. From her voice, he knows she has money again. In recent years, the factory has been expanding, the R&D department has been constantly producing new products, and the popularity of the Rainbow brand has now reached a new level.

The couple did an exercise to promote their relationship, and they woke up the next day feeling refreshed. In the bathroom, she talked to her aunt about the decoration, and she enthusiastically discussed the current decoration style with her.

“The heater is completely enclosed with hollow wooden boards, and the bedroom doors are also the kind with door frames. And the curtains are now popular. Gold velvet floor-length curtains are double-layered, with hollow tulle inside, which allows light to pass through but not people.”

“Yeah. I called my cousin, and he came to install it for me.”

“Your cousin is quite honest in his work, isn’t he?”

“I think it’s okay. He’s not the kind of person who would take advantage of his acquaintances. We’re all real relatives. If he dares to cheat me, my aunt will beat him to death.”

“Ha ha,”

As they were talking, they finished their breakfast. During the break, two policemen wearing wide-brimmed hats came in. The two policemen saluted as they entered the room. Shen Haiyang invited them to sit down in the main hall. The other party was not polite either.

Let’s get to the point.

“Murong Danling is guilty of smuggling, and the amount involved is huge. Now the evidence is irrefutable. She is on the run, and there has been no progress in her pursuit during this period. She is your son’s biological mother. Has she appeared in your home recently or contacted you?”

Shen Haiyang shook his head. “No.”

Murong Danling was found out, which was both expected and unexpected. A few years ago, Zhang Qiuhua was imprisoned for smuggling, and she got her in even though they were partners. She didn’t stop, even though the boat had capsized. This time, she finally fell into the water and is now wanted by the police.

“If she shows up or contacts you in any other way, please call the police immediately.”

“OK.”

“We have been keeping an eye on her accomplice, Zhang Qiuhua. She was arrested at the border and brought back. We have made a lot of progress in our surprise interrogation. According to her, Murong Danling is thinking about her own son, Shen Hui. Now that it has come to this, we believe that she may be looking for Shen Hui. Please call the police immediately if you find her.”

“Okay.”

After the police explained the situation, they said goodbye and left. Shen Haiyang looked solemn. Li Xia turned around and looked at him silently. The man explained: “It’s smuggling, and the amount involved is huge. She won’t be able to get away with it this time. As Huihui’s biological mother, Huihui will not be able to work in politics in the future.”

He sighed after saying this. “It wasn’t the child’s choice to do this. Now he is forced to cut off a path. I always feel it’s a pity.”

“Didn’t the old man say that we can’t choose where we’re born, but we can choose our own lives? As long as Huihui is good enough, there are thousands of paths in this world. There’s no need to focus on just one and feel sorry for it.”

“That’s right. I’m just worrying about nothing.”

The police came to the door and made it clear that Murong Danling might come to find Shen Hui. The couple immediately decided to talk to the child in the evening and let him know the development of the situation.

Shen Haiyang called her and told her the latest news: “Fang Zhongcheng has been suspended.”

“Because of Murong Danling?”

“It should be related.”

“He deserves it. It’s almost impossible for him to say he didn’t know anything about his wife doing such a thing. Will he go to jail this time? Well, the three of the children can forget about becoming civil servants in the future.”

“That’s not necessarily true. If there is no solid evidence to prove that he knew about it and participated in it, then he cannot be legally convicted. It just affected his career, and he may have to work in another industry in the future.”

“The most important thing is Huihui. Now is the critical moment. We must tell the child that no matter what happens, he must remain calm.”

“Well, I’ll talk to him.”

After the evening self-study class, when they came home, Li Xia and Shen Haiyand told the children the news. Huihua opened her mouth but said nothing. Yiyi looked indifferent. He was much more hard-hearted than his sister. Shen Hui was also silent, not knowing what to say to his biological mother.

He washed up and went to bed at night, but he tossed and turned and couldn’t sleep. The next day was the weekend, and he got up early in the morning to go for a run. Soon, his father came over to the park. The two of them walked slowly, and his father waited for him to speak without saying anything.

“Dad, if she is caught, how many years will she be sentenced to?”

“I asked around, and I think it could be life imprisonment or the death penalty.”

The amount involved in the case was huge, and they really didn’t care about anything for the sake of money. Shen Hui didn’t ask any more questions, and he lowered his head with a very disappointed look.

“Son, none of us can choose our parents, but we can choose our own lives.”

Shen Hui raised his head and said, “Dad, I know.” The child stretched out his finger and said, “Just run one more lap, and I’ll be fine. I still have to study. I promised mom that I would go to the best school to study electronic and mechanical engineering.”

“Okay, Dad will run with you.”

The father and son ran slowly for 800 meters along the track. When they returned home, Shen Hui finally came out of his bad mood. When he got home, his mother had already prepared breakfast, including his favorite wontons and fried dough sticks. His mother made the wontons herself and fried the dough sticks herself.

“Wash your hands and eat.”

His mother didn’t say anything. He smiled at her smiling face. “I’ll go call Yiyi .”

Of the three children, Shen Hui was most concerned. She put aside the other two and didn’t take them seriously. Yiyi has been studying very hard recently. If she said that he used 60% of his effort before, now it seems that he is in the sprint.

Recently, the light in his room was turned off around 12 o’clock, and he reads books while eating in the morning. Li Xia reached out to take away his book, and he looked at his mother with a confused expression.

“You are only in your first year of high school. There are still more than two years before the college entrance examination.”

“I plan to take the college entrance examination with my brother and sister and not waste time here.”

“Shen Ruyi, what’s wrong with you? We agreed to study slowly over three years of high school; why do you want to compress the time?”

“The three of us will take the TOEFL together in the second half of this year. If we pass, I would like to study abroad as soon as possible.”

“Son, isn’t it too tiring? You’re only fourteen. Normally, you’ll go to junior high school, and those who enroll early will go to high school in the second half of the year. Are you planning to study abroad?”

“It depends on the scores. If my scores are on par with my brother’s, I will apply. If not, I will continue to study in high school. Don’t worry, I will definitely learn well.”

Li Xia turned to look at Shen Haiyang. The man remained silent and did not interfere with the child’s decision. This child has had his own ideas since he was young, and he should be respected. It would be good if the three children went out together so that they could take care of each other.

When Huihua heard her brother say that he was worried about the TOEFL test, she decided to stay up an hour later at night. She had to study hard before the battle. In fact, she started learning foreign languages when she was very young, and her foreign language scores were always at the top in school. But when she took the test with her brother and Yiyi , she suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

Yiyi exerted all his strength, and Shen Hui was not willing to lag behind. The two brothers competed with each other in terms of learning. All Li Xia could do for her children was to ensure good logistics. She went to the vegetable market with the aunt, bought a lot of ingredients, and made nutritious meals for her children in various ways.

Auntie took a leave of absence on Friday, so Shen Haiyang got up early in the morning to send the three children to school. Li Xia thought about going to the factory to deal with some things in the morning and rushing home before 11 o’clock so as not to delay cooking for the children. Recently, the three children have been studying very hard, so they stewed pork ribs for lunch and made tiger skin quail eggs. The three of them liked it very much.

   (tiger skin quail eggs)

After breakfast, the couple drove away and locked the house door. The huge house was empty, and the back room had been renovated, cleaned, and put on display shelves, waiting to be opened next week after the products were put on display.

At the corner, seeing that they had all left, the woman held the key in her hand and observed around before slowly approaching. When the incident first happened, the police also set up surveillance on Shen Hui’s activity route and followed Shen Hui’s activities for a week. Later, there were not enough police forces, so they did not continue these days.

She was dressed normally but looked a little nervous. But passersby were in a hurry, and no one paid attention to her. She was holding the key with her hands shaking nervously, for fear that a familiar neighbor of the Shen family would see her.

“Click.” This key was really powerful. It opened the door quickly. She quickly pushed it open a crack and slipped in, then quickly closed the door and bolted it from the inside.

The same method was used to open the main room door. The woman looked up at the time and began to search through the boxes and cabinets to find the place where the cash was kept. Li Xia was such a big boss; her family should not be penniless.

She threw out the boxes, cabinets, and clothes inside. As time passed, she didn’t find the cash. She was angry and regretful. Why couldn’t she control her hands? Why did she go to gamble? All the money she brought with her was lost. Now she is so poor that she can’t make a living and has to hide from place to place. She can only come here to look for opportunities.

She rummaged through the drawers and found several hundred dollars under the pillow on the bed. She put the cash in her pocket and continued. She didn’t hear anyone coming back from outside.

Shen Hui had a stomachache for unknown reasons, so he had no choice but to ask for leave from his teacher to go home. Li Xia had prepared some common medicines at home, so he thought about going home to take the medicine first and then seeing how things went.

There was a padlock hanging on the door, and I pushed the door, but it wouldn’t open. It was obviously bolted, but who was home? Mom should be home to cook for them at this time.

“Mom, are you home?”

Shen Hui shouted, and Murong Danling, who was rummaging inside, dropped the things in her hands on the ground in fear. She subconsciously wanted to hide. She opened the closet, lifted the bed sheet,. Where should she hide?

“Mom, can you hear me? I came back from school with a stomachache.”

She quickly went out, took a fruit knife from the kitchen, and ran to open the house door neatly. Shen Hui was very surprised to see her, and before he could say anything, the woman pulled him in and locked the door again.

“Why are you in my house?”

Murong Danling didn’t answer him but turned and walked inside.

Shen Hui followed subconsciously and grabbed her at the door of the main room: “Speak up; why are you in my house? How did you get in? What are you doing in my house?”

“Let go.” Murong Danling shook off his hand. “Why are you asking? I’m your mother; there’s nothing wrong with me coming to your house.”

Shen Hui was speechless. How could you say such a thing with such confidence? He remembered what his parents had told him before. Just as he was about to speak, she turned around and pointed a knife at him. The child was frightened and stepped back subconsciously, all the way to the wall.

“What are you going to do?”

“Give me all the money in your house.”

“I don’t have any cash, just a passbook.”

Hold her back and find a way to call the police later. Dad said his own safety was the most important thing. As for her, it was okay to let her go in the current situation. Wait until she leaves, and then call the police. There are police to arrest her. There is no need to take risks as a child.

“Go and get it.”

Under the knife point of her, Shen Hui went back to the house and took out his bankbook: “All my New Year’s money is here.”

Murong Danling opened it and saw that the amount was not small. She started to feel jealous again. Li Xia had made a lot of money over the years. She had taken risks to make money, but now she was in danger and had to do the business of breaking into houses and picking locks. But Li Xia was safe and sound and didn’t take any risks. She had made much more than she had over the years.

“Take the money and leave quickly.”

Shen Hui spoke again and made a move to walk toward the street gate. Murong Danling grabbed him and said, “Where is Li Xia’s money? Go and get it out for me.”

Shen Hui was full of surprise and smiled. “Who would keep a large amount of cash at home? What are you thinking? The company has its own public account, and individuals also have their own private accounts. The cash is only enough for daily expenses.”

“Give me the money before I can leave. Otherwise, how can I go out like this?”

“Isn’t my passbook money?”

“Li Xia must have a passbook or something like that at home. Go get it and come with me to the bank to withdraw it for me. I’ll take it and go abroad. I’ll never come back, and I’ll never appear in front of you again. She’s so rich, she doesn’t care about these little things.”

Greedy, Shen Hui smiled helplessly. No matter how many chances she was given, she would still follow the same path. She had never regretted her journey to where she was now. She would do anything for money. This was her mindset. The more he reminded her to leave, the more she started to think about other things.

“I don’t know. How can my mother’s money tell me a little kid where she keeps her money ?”

“Your mother? Shen Hui, you ungrateful bastard, who is your mother?”

Shen Hui looked coldly and wanted to say that it was definitely not you. But thinking of his grandfather’s teachings and his father’s instructions, he remained silent and did not argue with her.

“My stomach hurts; I’m going to the backyard toilet to take care of it.”

“Don’t leave. Don’t act pretentiously.”

Murong Danling held him back, and Shen Hui pretended to bend over and hold his stomach. “I asked for leave because I was not feeling well; otherwise, why would I come home in the middle of the morning?”

Murong Danling was in a dilemma. Shen Hui continued to say with a grin, “Let go quickly, or I’m going to poop my pants.”

He shook her off and ran to the backyard. He knew that Murong Danling would not do anything to him unless there was any danger. Sure enough, when Murong Danling saw him running to the backyard and heard him fart, she immediately covered her mouth and nose with a disgusted expression.

He ran to the bedroom of his grandfather on the east side of the main hall, and Murong Danling began to search the house where the old man lived. The old man was a rich man, so even if there was no cash, it would be fine if he could find something valuable.

After Shen Hui entered the room and closed the door, he picked up the receiver and decisively dialed the police number. The police had come before, and he had left them his number. After the call was connected, he didn’t say anything. The other party suddenly reacted after being confused.

“Is it Murong Danling who showed up?”

He remained silent, and the other party continued, “Okay, got it. Try to keep her steady; we’ll be there soon.”

After the other party said this, he hung up the phone and waited in the house for the police to arrive. Murong Danling was searching for things while yelling at him, so he stood up and walked out to avoid alerting the enemy.

“Why are you yelling? My stomach hurts.”

“Don’t play tricks on me.”

“I don’t want to bother with you.”

He was stalling for time in the house while Li Xia came back outside. Seeing that the door was bolted from the inside, she immediately became alert. She put down the food and went to the next door to call the police. The police from the nearest police station arrived within a few minutes.

The police officer opened the bolt in front and prepared to move forward. She went around the garage secret door with anti-wolf spray in her hand. She wanted to block the way and prevent the enemy from escaping. Although this place is very hidden and the enemy may find it and get out, it is still just in case.

Before opening the door, she leaned close to listen and heard the voices of Shen Hui and Murong. Through the crack in the door, she saw Murong holding a fruit knife. She had agreed with the police to just block the door, but now she was worried about her son, so she opened the door carefully and went in. This position was right behind Murong.

Shen Hui saw her, and the boy was in a state of panic, fearing that something might happen to her, but his expression remained unchanged, cooperating with her actions. He spoke to attract Murong Danling’s attention.

“My mother never leaves cash at home. You are doomed to be disappointed. Go out now and get the money quickly. No one will know.”

“Shut up. Li Xia is so rich; she must have jewelry, right?”

“I’ve never seen her wearing it.”

“you,”

“Puff, puff.”

Li Xia seized the opportunity, covered her mouth and nose, held her breath, and sprayed the spray at Murong Danling. After spraying, she pulled her son and ran, and the mother and son ran all the way to the entrance of the alley. Open the door of the alley from the inside so that they can attack or defend.

“Help, help.”

Obviously, she was too vigilant this time. Murong Danling fell to the ground and lost her ability to move. The fruit knife in her hand fell to the side, and she was no longer able to reach it.

Murong Danling was already exhausted, and her face was filled with fear.

The police officer in the front yard also opened the door and came in from the front. He went straight in, handcuffed her, and took all three of them back to the police station.

Murong Danling was taken into the interrogation room while she and Shen Hui were outside taking notes. After the registration, the police asked them to wait for a while, then took the notes and went inside.

Li Xia raised her hand and patted the child on the shoulder. “If you are sad, just say it out. You should vent your emotions appropriately.”

The child raised his head to face her, then smiled. “I’m not sad, really. I don’t know when I was no longer influenced by her. The result today is her own choice. She chose her own path, and it has nothing to do with me.”

“That’s the right thing to think of.”

Li Xia was outside with her son, and Shen Haiyang came and went into the interrogation room to see Murong Danling. The woman had been silent and didn’t say anything before, but when she saw him come in, she looked up. Her eyes were dazed for a moment, and his mature and elegant face now overlapped with his youthful face when she first saw him.

At that time, he was a little shy, and when she took the initiative, he blushed all of a sudden and was as immature and green as an unripe fruit on a tree. Now he is mature and steady, with gentle features and an elegant temperament, and his eyes are upright and clear.

He sat down opposite her because Murong Danling asked to see him. The two policemen withdrew and left the interrogation room to them, and they watched through the glass window.

“What do you want me to say?”

“Help, help me; I don’t want to die. After all, I am your son’s biological mother. A husband and wife for a day is a hundred days of grace. We have also…”

“People always have to pay the price for what they do.”

Shen Haiyang got up and left without wasting any more time with her. Her words proved that she knew the consequences, but she still got herself into this situation step by step. She regretted being caught, but she regretted not hiding well and not doing such a thing.

He didn’t want to say anything more about her. The police notified him to come because they wanted to stop Murong Danling from thinking about it and let her confess the facts as soon as possible and not dream of having external help.

The law is fair, and he believes that the law will give her a fair ending.
