Chapter 414 All within expectations
"Boss Shen," Li Wei's voice brought her back to reality, "Zhou Ming just sent a message saying that Xuanyuan Qing went to the pharmaceutical factory today and seemed to be checking the employee communication records for the past six months. He was worried that he was being targeted."
Chen Hanxing frowned slightly. "Tell him to follow the plan and make another backup copy of the key data and hide it in our designated safe house. Also, have the field team pick up his family and transfer them to the backup address tonight."
"clear."
The rain was getting heavier, making a crackling sound against the French windows. Shen Hanxing walked to the window and looked at the neon lights downstairs blurred by the rain. His phone vibrated again. It was a message from Xuanyuan Pavilion.
[I've already transmitted the evidence regarding rare earths to Interpol's Asia-Pacific branch via encrypted satellite. Action is expected within 72 hours.]
She replied "Got it" and blew a puff of white mist on the glass with her fingertips, which was quickly blurred by the cold rain outside.
There was no retreat in this battle from the very beginning.
The Xuanyuan family's old house is located on the hillside outside Beijing. The blue bricks and gray tiles are hidden in the dense pines and cypresses, and there is a gloomy atmosphere even in the daytime.
Old man Xuanyuan Heng sat on the armchair, stroking a pair of walnuts with thick patina in his hands, and glanced at his descendants standing in the hall.
At the other end of the long mahogany table, Xuanyuan Qing lowered his head, with wine stains on his shirt collar, obviously he had been forcibly called back from the drinking party.
"Waste!" Xuanyuan Heng slammed his cane to the ground with a dull thud. "You've almost got your biopharmaceutical business blown away, and you still have the mind to indulge in drinking and prostitution?"
Xuanyuan Qing raised his head abruptly, his eyes filled with drunken irritation. "Grandpa, aren't these just a few reporters making wild guesses? I've got that old bastard Zhou Ming under my thumb for a long time now. He wouldn't dare turn against me."
"Don't dare?" Xuanyuan Heng sneered and slammed a printed email on the table.
"Interpol just sent a joint investigation notice, saying someone has reported our mines in Southeast Asia as being involved in rare earth smuggling, and they specifically asked to investigate you! Tell me, is this just a reporter's wild guess?"
Xuanyuan Qing's face turned pale instantly, and he was almost sober. "Impossible... That batch of goods was sold out last year, and the hush money was paid. How could it be..."
"How could this happen?" A cold voice came from the door. Xuanyuan Ge pushed the door open and walked in. The gauze on his left arm was oozing dark red blood again. It was probably because he had torn the wound when he went upstairs just now.
"Because some people always think they can plug all the holes with money."
When Xuanyuan Qing saw him, he rushed over like a cat whose tail was stepped on, "You did it! Xuanyuan Pavilion, you traitor!"
Xuanyuan Ge moved aside, his eyes colder than the rain outside the window. "Whether it was me or not is not important. What's important is that the customs archives still have a copy of the release form signed by you."
When he said this, his eyes were full of sarcasm.
"Back then, to save trouble, you didn't ask your men to change their handwriting."
Xuanyuan Heng's face was so gloomy that it looked like water was about to drip out. He stared at Xuanyuan Ge and said, "You did all this for that woman, didn't you? Don't think I can't see it."
"Aren't you afraid that I'll make that woman and that evil creature disappear?"
Xuanyuan Ge smiled coldly in his heart.
really.
The old man's previous words were just to calm him down.
Asking him to talk to Jiang Shutong was just to make Jiang Shutong the villain who broke them up.
But now Jiang Shutong couldn't separate them at all, which made him more motivated.
Let this matter develop in an uncontrollable direction.
So, now that my true colors are revealed, I don’t even bother to pretend anymore.
"Grandpa!" His voice suddenly rose, carrying with it the anger that had been suppressed for years.
"Xunxun is not a bastard! If you hadn't wanted to arrange a marriage, none of this would have happened!"
"How dare you!" Xuanyuan Heng was so angry that he was shaking all over, with his crutch pointing at his nose.
"I'm your grandfather! You've brought shame upon the Xuanyuan family! Do you think you can bring me down by joining forces with outsiders? I'm telling you, as long as I'm alive, you have no say in this family!"
"Then take a look," Xuanyuan Ge took out a recorder from his pocket and pressed the play button.
The conversation between Xuanyuan Qing and Zhou Ming came out from inside, which clearly recorded how they forged clinical trial data, how they bribed officials from the Drug Administration, and even mentioned that "no one cared about those orphans who died."
Xuanyuan Qing's face completely lost all color and he collapsed to the ground.
Xuanyuan Heng closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was only ruthlessness in his eyes.
We can't just accept this matter like this!
He can't just watch the Xuanyuan family fall!
"Come here, lock Xuanyuan Ge in the ancestral hall. Don't let him out without my order."
Two bodyguards stepped forward immediately. Xuanyuan Ge did not resist, but just looked back at Xuanyuan Heng before being taken away.
"Grandpa, you can't protect everyone. You'll have to pay back what you owe sooner or later."
The ancestral hall was cold and damp, with only a small window letting in raindrops.
Xuanyuan Ge leaned against the cold wall, the pain from his wound coming in waves, but his mind was full of Lingcui's face.
I really hope Lingling will be fine in the future.
Even if I'm not with him.
As long as I can be happy.
The rest doesn’t matter.
The phone vibrated in his pocket. It was a message from Shen Hanxing.
Zhou Ming has been safely transferred. He provided records of bribery by officials at the Food and Drug Administration. How's the situation on your end?
He stared at the screen, his fingertips turning white, and slowly replied with two words: [All within expectations.]
…
Chuxin Company's press conference is scheduled for 10 a.m. on Friday at the Kyoto International Exhibition Center.
Shen Hanxing stood backstage, adjusting his suit jacket in front of the mirror.
Qi Moxun came over and straightened her slightly messy tie: "Are you nervous?"
She shook her head, her fingertips feeling slightly cold. "I'm not nervous, I'm just thinking that after today, the fate of many people will change."
Those orphans who were used as experimental subjects, those who were oppressed by the Xuanyuan family, and Xunxun...
From today on, her future will truly be in her own hands.
“But the direction is right.”
Qi Moxun held her hand, and the warmth from his palm passed through her, "I asked the public relations department to prepare 20 backup plans. No matter what questions the reporters throw out, we have a way to respond.
We've also made arrangements with the capital side. As soon as the press conference begins, we'll initiate the acquisition process to ensure that Xuanyuan's stock price doesn't even have a chance to struggle."
Shen Hanxing raised her eyes and met his smiling eyes.
These days, he has been working almost non-stop, keeping an eye on capital operations, coordinating security to protect Lingcui and Xunxun, and even personally investigating the Xuanyuan family's shell companies hidden overseas.
She wanted to say "hard work", but he beat her to the punch:
"Xunxun just sent me a video saying he saw a rainbow abroad and drew a picture. He asked me to pass it on to you."
He took out his phone and clicked on the picture - there were three little people in the picture, one with a ponytail (probably her), one wearing a suit (probably Qi Moxun), and a small figure holding a rainbow with the words "Xunxun's Home" written crookedly next to it.
Shen Hanxing's heart seemed to be gently hit by something, sour and warm.
