Lin Qiao’er saw Ye Qiu, her gaze lingered for a few seconds on Shen Mengchen and Shangguan Hong, who stood beside him, then she pretended not to know them and walked past the three. freewebnøvel.com

“Don’t recognize me anymore?” Ye Qiu murmured under his breath, his face wearing a bitter smile.

Shen Mengchen and Shangguan Hong, on the other hand, furrowed their brows, feeling intuitively that the policewoman seemed to treat Ye Qiu slightly differently.

A large number of policemen poured in, and Lin Qiao’er forcefully gathered all the business leaders present into the vehicles, not even Shen Tianlong could escape and was squeezed into a car with everyone else, heading back to the police station.

Over ten police cars were used, and if the citizens knew that those sitting inside were business leaders from various sectors in Zhongshan City, they would probably be shocked.

When the numerous business leaders got out of the police cars and reluctantly entered the police station, many of their police colleagues were in a daze, wondering why there were so many important figures, some of whom were well-known business magnates.

Lin Qiao’er was quickly summoned by the Director.

As soon as she entered the room, Director Wang slammed his hand on the table, the sound painfully ringing in their ears, and angrily exclaimed, “Lin Qiao’er, have you lost your mind?

Look at what you’ve done…”

Director Wang was furious, Lin Qiao’er had actually managed to round up all the big and small business owners of Zhongshan City and brought them to the station, which made him extremely angry.

This was the first time in the history of Zhongshan City that someone dared to do such a thing.

“Director Wang, Ge Yusheng suddenly died on the street, I had reasons to suspect his death was related to the people attending this banquet, so I brought them all back for investigation, I believe I was not wrong,” Lin Qiao’er argued defiantly.

“You still dare to talk…” Director Wang was so infuriated by Lin Qiao’er that he was nearly steaming from his forehead.

Director Wang now deeply regretted promoting this young woman, who had now caused such a huge mess.

“I order you to properly settle these business leaders and let them out of the police station.

The case involving Ge Yusheng, you are no longer in charge of it.”

“Director Wang…

I haven’t even started my investigation, and to let them go just like that, where is the dignity of our police station?” Lin Qiao’er stubbornly argued.

Talking about dignity…

Director Wang almost choked on his own blood—sitting in the interrogation room were figures who were the lifeline of Zhongshan City’s economy.

If something happened to all of them at once, what would become of Zhongshan City?

Director Wang didn’t dare to imagine, once the higher authorities got wind of this, they would be irate, and he knew that sending these business tycoons away was now imperative.

Who knew if any of these people had acute medical conditions that could escalate the situation even further, potentially leading to the worst scenario imaginable.

“Don’t say another word, just go and do it,” Director Wang commanded coldly, his tone leaving no room for argument.

Seeing the defiance in Lin Qiao’er, Director Wang massaged his forehead with great vexation, wondering how this young woman could be so relentless.

If Lin Qiao’er hadn’t shown such integrity and indomitable spirit, he would have already considered demoting her.

Although he appreciated Lin Qiao’er’s courage, green as she was, she shouldn’t have brought all these business magnates into the station all at once.

After thinking it over, Director Wang sighed, admitting to himself that he had no choice but to tolerate Lin Qiao’er.

The numerous business leaders sitting in the interrogation room were in a very bad mood, most of them entering the police station in person for the first time.

Even in the usual course of their disputes, it was their subordinates who dealt with the police, never needing to make an appearance themselves; now, for the first time in their lives, they entered the police station, marking a significant yet disgraceful note in the annals of their careers.

Lin Qiao’er appeared in the interrogation room, drawing all eyes to her.

“Alright, you all may leave now.

About the death of Ge Yusheng, each of you will be investigated in due time.

I hope everyone will cooperate when the time comes.”

What?

Did we hear wrong?

To bring us here and just let us go?

The interrogation room erupted into chaos, feeling like a plaything in her hands, as everyone was shuffled around until their old bones nearly went numb from sitting.

The many business leaders present showed strong disapproval.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I’m sorry, Officer Lin is new here, and I hope you won’t take it too personally.

To make it up to you, let me offer my apologies; tonight was a misunderstanding, and it wasn’t my intention to hassle everyone like this.

But it’s good in a way because now you all know where the entrance to our police station is, don’t you?”

Director Wang hurried out at this moment to smooth things over, knowing full well that Lin Qiao’er’s nature was not one to amicably resolve conflicts.

As he had anticipated, if he hadn’t intervened, the business owners might have become even angrier.

Although they wouldn’t dare confront the police, they could easily withdraw all their capital from Zhongshan City, and that would not be difficult at all.

Seeing the chief of police personally come out to apologize, everyone, though still resentful, felt it inappropriate to express anger, and out of respect for the chief, they eventually got up and left.

Ye Qiu glanced at Lin Qiao’er standing behind Director Wang and sighed heavily.

What had upset this girl so much that she had caused such a mess?

Ye Qiu and the others quickly exited the police station as well.

All of them vanished quickly, hurrying back to their companies, eager to put the troublesome police station incident behind them because there were far more important concerns preoccupying the minds of these business owners.

Shen Tianlong didn’t leave with Ye Qiu and the others.

Ye Qiu knew what Shen Tianlong was plotting.

With Ge Yusheng’s death, the market in Zhongshan City would undergo drastic changes.

Moreover, with the other two directors of Rongda not in China and unable to return promptly, it provided an opportunity for many who were watching keenly to make their move.

The moment was an optimal one to seize the initiative,

Being an old and cunning man, Shen Tianlong had foreseen this and hurried back to his company to prepare for action.

Now, it was about who could act fastest; the one to make the first move would reap the most benefits.

Ye Qiu returned to the Goddess Villa with the three women, leaving the business matters to others for the time being.

Today’s banquet had really been full of unexpected turns—a straightforward business gathering ending up at the police station.

Even though it was all a farce, it was still rather absurd.

Shen Mengchen was too tired to care about how much property Rongda might lose or who would seize the business opportunity.

As soon as she arrived at the villa, she dove into her room and fell into a deep sleep.

Shangguan Hong said a soft “Goodnight,” and Ye Qiu nodded, understanding that Shangguan Hong was also ready to rest.

The three women each went to their rooms.

Ye Qiu turned off the lights in the hall, and the house was plunged into darkness.

He felt he should rest too.

Just as he was about to open his room door, suddenly, he stopped.

“Where’s Ye Zi?” Ye Qiu immediately remembered that he hadn’t seen Ye Zi since entering the villa.

That wasn’t right.

Ye Qiu searched around but couldn’t find Ye Zi.

Afterwards, Ye Qiu sat on the sofa waiting; he couldn’t believe that Ye Zi would disappear without explanation.

Almost four hours passed, and Ye Zi still hadn’t come back.

“Where exactly are you?” Ye Qiu said despondently, imagining Ye Zi’s face smiling at him.

She wouldn’t just disappear for no reason.

Ye Qiu got up and circled the villa again.

It was nearly midnight now, the night outside was very dark and slightly chilly, but still no sign of Ye Zi.

Ye Qiu returned to his room disappointed.

He sat at the edge of the bed, his mind racing with thoughts of where Ye Zi could have gone.

Just when he looked up unintentionally, he saw a piece of white paper stuck on the back of his door, facing the bed he was sleeping in.

Ye Qiu leaped up and stared at the words left on the white paper in small, neat handwriting.

Brother Qiu, I have gone.

I’ve been happy these days with you.

Don’t worry about me.

Ye Zi left.

A simple sentence, yet it made Ye Qiu stand there for a long while.
