Chapter 323 Miss Shen’s Excellence is Fascinating
The two people were deadlocked and were even about to fight.
It took Shen Hanxing and Qi Moxun a lot of effort to separate the two.
"Let's contact them now about the company's affairs. Maybe there will be a turning point."
"There's no point in fighting here."
She looked at Meng Tingxiao.
"Talk to Aunt Meng about this, and we can discuss the rest of the details slowly."
"Mr. Lu, your Lu family's actions are indeed a bit sudden. I don't think there is any need to explain anything here. Let's go and understand the situation first."
Meng Tingxiao immediately let go.
Lu Zheng straightened his clothes.
The two men fell silent for a moment.
It means that they are willing to negotiate.
…
As the black Bentley drove away from the Meng family villa, in the shadow of the back seat, Shen Hanxing's fingertips gently stroked the metal buckle of the leather handbag.
She looked at the plane trees flying past outside the car window, their leaves casting golden spots in the twilight.
"The contents of that waterproof bag actually prove that Han Lingcui's situation is indeed very special."
"It's also very likely that it was Lingling from back then."
"It's a pity there's nothing here that can directly prove her identity."
She closed her eyes.
"If that's true, did Meng Tingxiao deliberately ignore these things when he helped me with passports and other supporting documents abroad?"
Qi Moxun tilted his head to look at her.
"This can't be accomplished overnight. It requires the right time, place, and people. Bai Yu should also investigate."
At least the person has been identified now.
I really didn't expect that this person was within the Qi Group.
It’s an unexpected gain.
Until you are sure, just keep an eye on Han Lingcui and don't let her leave.
She looked out the window, where the traffic flowed like a river of light in the twilight. "First, find out about the Lu family's purchase of land."
She had a hunch that if this matter was investigated thoroughly, the relationship between Han Lingcui and Lingling would also become clear.
She took a deep breath and continued.
"The land where the Meng family villa is located is within the planned waterfront development zone. In the cultural tourism projects announced by the government last year, this area was supposed to be..."
"Art colony."
Qi Moxun replied, releasing the brake when the green light came on.
"Meng's Cultural Tourism won the bid for this project last year and was originally scheduled to start this year. But three days ago, the Lu Group suddenly announced it would acquire 200 mu of surrounding land at a 40% premium, with plans to build a wildlife park."
Chen Hanxing frowned. "The zoo is located right next to the Meng family villa. Once construction begins, it will not only disrupt the waterfront landscape plan, but the Meng family's art community project will also be forced to be shelved due to noise and visitor flow conflicts."
She tapped the door armrest with her fingertips. "The Lu family is trying to cut off the Meng family's escape route."
Qi Moxun suddenly sneered, "Even better, 37 mu of the land Lu acquired is collectively owned, which requires a public hearing. But yesterday afternoon, Lu received the filing approval from the National Development and Reform Commission."
Shen Hanxing turned his head suddenly: "Procedural violation?"
Qi Moxun didn't respond, but it seemed like he agreed.
Shen Hanxing was also in a rather heavy mood, and the two of them tacitly returned to the top floor conference room of Qi Group.
The projector projected the map of the waterfront development zone onto the floor-to-ceiling window. Shen Hanxing stared at the overlapping red lines on the screen, his fingertips tapping quickly on the keyboard.
The screen switched, showing the Lu Group's financial statements for the past three years.
"Lu's cultural tourism sector has been in the red for two consecutive years," Qi Moxun said in a low voice, standing behind her.
"But this time, 2.7 billion yuan in cash was used to buy the land, and the flow of funds shows that 1.5 billion yuan came from overseas accounts."
Chen Hanxing's mouse suddenly stopped on a string of numbers: "This is..."
Qi Moxun sighed softly.
"The owner of this account has not yet been investigated."
Shen Hanxing lowered his eyes.
"In fact, there's no point in investigating. In the end, the person might be found in an 80-year-old woman or man."
"It's clear that this account is designed to attract our attention."
As she spoke, she stood up and walked to the window, overlooking the brightly lit city below.
The wind blew her hair, but her eyes were cold: "The person behind this is trying to use the Lu family to attack the Meng family and me at the same time."
"I now even suspect that Jiang Shaochuan's detention was not a coincidence, but was done by this person in advance."
"Xuanyuan and I are all being used as pawns."
…
The next day.
Shen Hanxing was still in a bad mood after work, and only got the news when he was about to get off work.
The person who sent her the email was the professor who had previously excavated the ancient tomb.
Originally, their relationship was pretty good.
The reason why he was willing to help this time was naturally because of Shen Hanxing's face.
After she got the things, she went straight to Qi Moxun's office.
Qi Moxun walked to her side and brushed the back of her hand with the sleeve of his suit: "Meng Tingxiao just sent a message saying that Lu Corporation has already started the table cleaning work this afternoon."
He paused. "The Meng family's lawyer's letter was returned on the grounds that the land ownership was clear and there was no dispute."
Chen Hanxing suddenly turned around, his eyes burning: "Is the ownership really clear?"
She quickly walked to the conference table and unfolded a yellowed copy of the title deed. "This is the title deed to the old Meng family residence. The plot of land marked is three times larger than the current Meng family villa, and naturally includes the land that the Lu family is currently clearing."
Qi Moxun raised an eyebrow. "The land deed may not be valid under modern law, but you can apply for administrative review and suspend construction."
"That's not all." Chen Hanxing pulled up an environmental assessment report. "There are Tang Dynasty tombs beneath the waterfront area, which the archaeological team explored last year. In Lu's zoo plan, the wild animal area is located right above the tombs."
She tapped the screen with her fingertips. "This violates Article 29 of the Cultural Relics Protection Law. Construction projects within the protection area of a cultural relic protection unit must be approved by the cultural relics department."
Qi Moxun suddenly smiled, with a sharp gleam in his eyes: "Ms. Shen intends to play the legal card and the public opinion card at the same time?"
She smiled softly.
It's true that nothing can be hidden from Qi Moxun.
And this man is like a worm in her stomach.
Speaks precisely what she is thinking.
She nodded. "Tomorrow morning at ten o'clock, the official archaeological survey report will be released. In the meantime..."
She paused, then pulled out an agreement from a folder. "Meng has authorized me to launch the 'Waterfront Art Fund,' and to unite twenty artists to jointly advocate for the protection of historical and cultural sites."
After she finished speaking, she looked up and met his deep gaze.
The distance between them was close enough that I could clearly see the shadow cast by his eyelashes.
Her heart skipped a beat.
“I, I…”
She took a deep breath.
"I think this is not enough. We also need to prevent Xuanyuan Pavilion from causing trouble."
"We should reveal some of the evidence we have to him."
"He's busy looking for Lingling, so he probably won't bother with these little things."
There was silence for a moment.
She said again.
“But this is also very risky.”
"If we make a mistake, we might not be able to bear the wrath of Xuanyuan Pavilion."
