My Fortune-Blessed Leading Lady-Chapter 633 - 629: Retribution for Being Late 37

"The shareholder with the most shares," it’s quite interesting you say that, like an after-dinner dessert.

But you’re not wrong either. If those recordings hadn’t existed, none of what followed would have happened, and besides, it’s now even tied to a murder case.

The shareholders said nothing, just watched Zhao Shuqin, waiting for her explanation. Zhao Shuqin felt a panic rising within her, yet she didn’t want to show the slightest weakness in front of these people. She gripped the notebook in her hands tightly.

"I have nothing to say. This is a setup."

Shareholder, "A setup? Director Zhao, even if you don’t want to admit it, there’s no need to treat us like fools, thinking you can hoodwink us. We can recognize those voices ourselves; we’re not brainless."

Only a brainless person could be fooled by such a flimsy claim of a setup.

"Why are you opposing me?" Zhao Shuqin couldn’t hold back her frustration as she asked, "What good does it do you if Huanya is in trouble?"

Shareholder, "It’s exactly because we’re worried Huanya is in trouble that we want you, the chairperson, to step forward and take responsibility for the mess you’ve made. Did we tell you to commit financial fraud and murder?"

"Who’s committing financial fraud and murder? Who are you saying is doing that?" Zhao Shuqin was already losing control of her emotions. The shareholder didn’t respond but pursed their lips, stood up from their seat, and was about to walk out.

"You stop right there."

Zhao Shuqin slammed the table and stood up, pointing at the shareholder with the most shares who was preparing to leave.

He turned, looking at the crazed Zhao Shuqin, and snorted, "You want me to stay, chairperson? What for? To watch you go mad? Sorry, but I’m not into that. I’m old, and I worry about getting caught in the crossfire."

Zhao Shuqin, "Don’t think I don’t know what you’re really thinking. You’re nothing but that bastard’s lackey, do you think he’ll still be alive to come back?"

The shareholder pondered for a moment, thinking: Perhaps Mr. Xiaoxi could come back unscathed after all, considering the phone call I received last night probably wasn’t fake.

He took a step to continue forward, but Zhao Shuqin rushed over and blocked his path, "Don’t you want to answer my question, Director Lin?"

"I feel that there is no common ground in our conversation. I’d rather not make unconstructive assumptions. As for Director Zhao’s claim that you have nothing to hide, and this matter is unrelated to you, well, I’ll believe it."

Did that look in his eyes resemble one of trust?

Who is he trying to fob off?

Regardless of who he’s fobbing off, she’s clearly the first to be brushed aside. Zhao Shuqin was seething with anger, "Do all of you shareholders think the same way, that Huanya has come to this?"

The other shareholders remained silent.

If Zhao Shuqin continues to be the chairperson of Huanya, they can guarantee, Huanya surely has no future. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Meanwhile, as the shareholders were dispersing, the police had already arrived at the door, with an arrest warrant in hand.

"Director Zhao, please cooperate with the investigation. Regarding Fu Yuran’s murder case, we would like you to come with us for questioning."

Zhao Shuqin glared fiercely, stepping back, "If you have anything to say, talk to my lawyer. I will not leave Huanya by half a step."

The police exchanged glances, presented the arrest warrant, "Sorry, this an arrest warrant. Even though you are not a citizen of our country, you are suspected of murdering a citizen of our country, and we have the right to arrest you for questioning. Please, Director Zhao, do not make this difficult for us. After all, the truth or falsity of this matter must be clarified.

If you truly are innocent and unrelated, we naturally will not detain you. Please rest assured."

The scene of Zhao Shuqin being taken away from the Huanya Building was posted online. At first, indeed, nobody paid any attention to her side, but surprisingly, there was a journalist staking out.

And with the police car parked right beneath the Huanya Building, it was hard to remain unnoticed.

Yuran and Bo Yan didn’t leave the house; the two stayed at home waiting for an answer. For Yuran, this was the long-awaited truth—her death had indeed been a great injustice.

She had initially wanted to handle the matter herself, but since Xi Nian had taken action, she naturally accepted the favor. After all, not everyone would help you in such a manner.

And Zhao Shuqin was far too impulsive.

...

At the same time, Xi Zhen received a call from Xi Nian. At first, Xi Zhen didn’t recognize Xi Nian’s voice. When he realized the person on the other end was Xi Nian, his first words were, "Your connections in the country must be good. Go, ask about your little aunt’s situation!"

Xi Nian laughed derisively and asked directly, "Grandpa, is it my little aunt or my young step-grandmother?"

"You..." Xi Zhen was taken aback as if swept by a storm, sensing that Xi Nian must have found out something. He tried to suppress his emotions but was incapable of containing his anger, "What nonsense are you spouting? Do you realize the kind of scandal you’re bringing upon the Xi family with such slander?"
