Inside the Jinshan Club, Yun Shao's face was ashen as he looked at the trending topics still hanging high on his phone screen.
Several days have passed, but news about the fortune-telling agency continues to trend on social media. This tax evasion incident not only failed to ruin the agency's reputation, but actually boosted its public image.
Many people believe that since the boss of Shiyun is so generous, he certainly wouldn't exploit the artists under his management. In fact, many fans wish that their own brothers and sisters could sign with Shiyun's agency.
The popularity of the Fortune Management agency has brought a lot of exposure to its artists.
If Yun Shao could still remain calm at this point, he completely broke down when he refreshed the page and a newly emerging trending topic appeared on the hot search list.
[Tax audit of a fortune teller concludes; possible frame-up]
The recent high-profile tax evasion case involving a fortune-telling agency has seen its initial investigation conclude today. Aside from a few recent transactions, no tax evasion was found! It's possible the agency was deliberately framed by an employee. We've learned that the fortune-telling agency reported the incident to the police on the day it occurred, and the suspect is suspected of being missing...
Oh shit!
His usually proud composure completely crumbled at this moment, and in a fit of rage, he smashed the wine bottles and fruit plates on the coffee table, instantly turning the private room into a mess.
After venting his frustrations, feeling that everything had gone wrong this past year, Young Master Yun sat on the messy sofa, his gaze coldly fixed on the trembling man below him.
If there were no other options available, he would never have bothered with such scum in the past.
Damn it, why didn't that kid surnamed Cai just run her over and kill her?!
He lit a cigarette and said coldly, "Is this what you meant by ruining her?"
"Young Master Yun..." Facing the gloomy Young Master Yun, the man's heart pounded like a drum, and he almost wanted to curse Shi Jing to death.
Damn it, these days, it's one thing to run a company and not evade a single penny of taxes, but to actually donate all the profits? And not only that, but donating on behalf of the employees too? Are they out of their minds? Does having too much money make them feel guilty?
His plan was supposed to be flawless. These days, which company doesn't have some tax avoidance methods? With just a little guidance, the authorities would definitely make her suffer if they investigated.
With a little manipulation of public opinion, he could easily destroy an entertainment company. And other companies under his management would inevitably be implicated!
And now, an unavoidable crisis has been resolved in this way?!
Who would believe that if I told them this!
I thought I could show my face in front of Young Master Yun and maybe be given an important position in the future. But now, I haven't gained any credit and I'm afraid I'll have to take the blame for Young Master Yun!
The thought of it made him want to vomit blood.
"Old Liu, what about the mother and daughter?" Young Master Yun took a few deep drags on his cigarette, calming himself down a bit.
"They're...they're still locked up in the factory..."
Young Master Yun frowned: "It's been several days, why hasn't it been dealt with yet? Are you afraid the police won't be able to find you?"
"This..." The man called Lao Liu hesitated for a moment, "Then I'll go and make the arrangements now?"
"Get out of here and clean it up. Do I have to teach you this kind of thing?" Young Master Yun was about to be driven crazy by this guy's stupidity. No wonder he made such a mess of things with such a low-class attitude.
Several days have passed since the incident, and the police must have been searching for this woman all along. How dare they still keep her in their possession!

Meanwhile, the police investigation is in full swing.
Since its establishment, Shiyun Company has consistently been a major taxpayer in the city, with numerous powerful connections behind it, and even recently established ties with the military. After this matter blew up, many leaders have subtly inquired about it.
After the brokerage firm reported the incident to the police, they were unable to track down any trace of Zhang Yue, the firm's financial manager. The police secretly investigated Zhang Yue's home, but only found a man and an elderly woman there.
The investigation revealed that the man was Zhang Yue's husband, and the old lady was Zhang Yue's mother-in-law.
The old lady originally came to the city from the countryside to take care of her granddaughter and daughter-in-law, but now Zhang Yue is nowhere to be found at the Zhang family home, nor is the little girl.
Zhang Yue's husband, far from being worried about his wife and daughter's disappearance, even indulged in a life of debauchery. Meanwhile, the elderly woman who cared for her granddaughter was seen dressing up and dancing in the park every day.
The police quickly realized that something was wrong with the mother and son and promptly brought them back to the police station for questioning.
Meanwhile, investigators, ostensibly conducting a census, were also visiting Zhang Yue's neighborhood and nearby square dance groups.
The information they uncovered was truly eye-opening for the investigators!
Zhang Yue was a true local girl, but her life wasn't very lucky. Both her parents were only children, and they had no relatives. When Zhang Yue was in college, her parents were killed in a car accident on their way to visit her at school. After that, Zhang Yue, who had always been a lively and cheerful girl, suddenly became much more silent.
Zhang Yue's husband is her classmate from the same university. The two started dating in college and got married right after graduation.
She had no family and few friends. Before marriage, her husband was gentle and considerate, but after marriage, he felt he had her under his control and his attitude gradually changed.
It's unclear whose fault it is, but the couple has been married for many years without children, and the man has argued with her about it quite a bit. Some neighbors who know Zhang Yue feel sorry for her situation but don't want to interfere too much.
Fortunately, Zhang Yue finally became pregnant five years ago, but instead of finding peace, life became even more difficult.
Her husband brought his elderly mother from their hometown under the guise of taking care of them. This old lady was not easy to get along with. Seeing that Zhang Yue was an orphan, she looked down on her at all. Although she said she was taking care of her, she found fault with her every day.
After the child was born, the old lady became even more demanding. Seeing that her daughter-in-law had given birth to a girl, she quit before her postpartum period was over.
For her daughter Zhang Yue's sake, Zhang Yue remained relatively clear-headed. She was quite skilled in her profession and had saved some money over the years. Once her child was older, she hired a nanny and went back to work.
About six months ago, the old lady's attitude suddenly changed drastically, and she became much nicer to her granddaughter and Zhang Yue.
Zhang Yue is a family-oriented person. Her mother-in-law and husband are willing to improve their relationship, and Zhang Yue will gradually accept them for the sake of her daughter.
Two months later, the old lady dismissed the family's nanny and took her granddaughter to and from school herself.
However, starting about last month, no one has seen her granddaughter anymore. When her fellow square dancers asked her, the old lady gave a vague answer, saying that the child had gone to stay with relatives.
Upon discovering this information, the old woman became highly suspicious.
The police immediately arranged an interrogation, starting with this old woman!
