Hu Liansheng was dumbfounded, and was so frightened that he wet himself, his legs trembling uncontrollably.
When Xia Zhi realized the situation was bad, she tried to escape again, but before she could even move, the bodyguards brought by Sang Qing and Nie Xin surrounded her.
"Misunderstanding...misunderstanding!" Hu Liansheng's lips twitched. "It must be a misunderstanding!"
"This...this CEO is a legitimate businessman from Southeast Asia, and we are also doing legitimate business, we..."
"Hu Liansheng." Suddenly, Lu Lishan's icy voice rang out, "Keep those words to yourself and tell them to the judge!"
Hu Liansheng's eyes widened, his legs went weak, and his blood seemed to freeze.
Lu Lishan approached step by step. Although he was nearly fifty years old, the sense of oppression he exuded had not faded with the passing years.
On the contrary, its strength adds a touch of weathered maturity.
He was no longer as impulsive as he had been in his youth. Instead, he remained calm and stared coldly at Hu Liansheng, a faint smile playing on his lips.
"Mr. Lu...Mr. Lu..."
"Ha, I had no idea that all I knew was fighting and killing, and that I only knew how to revolve around my wife. I was completely clueless about business management?"
"no!"
"Hu Liansheng, you stole my land right under my nose! This is truly an eye-opener!" Lu Lishan clenched his fists, his knuckles cracking. "If this happened in the martial arts world, do you know what kind of behavior this would be?"
"No, Mr. Lu... please let me explain!"
Hu Liansheng knelt down in front of Lu Lishan with a thud, crying with snot and tears streaming down his face.
"Mr. Lu, I have elderly parents and young children to support. I just wanted to earn more money! Mr. Lu... I was just confused for a moment. If you give me this chance to make amends, I will be loyal to you from now on and will do anything for you..."
Lu Lishan gave him a disgusted look and kicked him hard in the chest!
"Although I've been out of the martial arts world for many years, thanks to you, you reminded me that even though I've retired, I'm still a part of it!"
"Since that's the case, then I'll deal with you according to the rules of the martial arts world!"
Hu Liansheng collapsed to the ground, his face filled with terror.
"No...you can't do this!" he still struggled desperately. "Now...now everything is governed by law! You, do you still think this is the time when you, Lu Lishan, were roaming the martial world? These, these police officers are all here..."
However, when he looked around, the officers were all expressionless and unresponsive.
“Hu Liansheng,” one of them stepped forward and said, “President Lu’s use of ‘family rules’ to deal with you first does not prevent us from acting in accordance with the law!”
"What……"
Lu Lishan smiled faintly, and with a single glance, Ayi immediately led his men to drag Hu Liansheng out.
Xia Zhi watched this scene with trepidation; Hu Liansheng's screams sent chills down her spine.
At this moment, Huo Junyu, holding Jiang Mianmian's hand, walked in through the door.
When Xia Zhi met Jiang Mianmian's icy gaze, it felt as if an invisible hand had gripped her tightly. She rushed over in a panic, almost kneeling before Jiang Mianmian, begging her through tears not to kill her.
"Mianmian..."
"Don't touch me!" Jiang Mianmian's voice was like ice, she took a few steps back and stared coldly at her, "Xia Zhi, I told you long ago, I will never be fooled by you again!"
"Mianmian, I still have my parents and my younger brother... They all depend on me to support them! If something happens to me, what will they do?"
"That's their own business," Jiang Mianmian said coldly. "They're adults now, perfectly capable of supporting themselves!"
"Jiang Mianmian!"
Xia Zhi bit her lip, her scarlet eyes filled with fear and resentment.
Huo Junyu put his arm around Mianmian's shoulder, letting her lean against him. He shielded her with half of his body, giving her a sense of security.
Xia Zhi enunciated each word clearly and said fiercely, "Jiang Mianmian, Huo Junyu! Have you ever thought about what would happen if something happened to me...?"
"Are you referring to Wen Jie?" Huo Junyu sneered. "Xia Zhi, you're overthinking it. You don't really think a top lawyer would be so foolish as to fall for your trick so easily?"
"you……"
Xia Zhi's mind went blank.
At this moment, she came to her senses, and all that flashed through her mind were Wen Jie's indifference and contempt during their relationship.
Even when eating out, he would send her a payment code to split the bill.
However, he was more enthusiastic about her computer than about her...
Xia Zhi was stunned for a long time, tears fell down her face, and a crazy smile appeared on her lips.
"Jiang Mianmian!" She turned to look at her, her words already flowing freely, "You really don't care about our past friendship? Today you have the police take me away, tomorrow I'll have someone post online! I want the whole world to know that you framed an old friend, that you're a heartless, cold-blooded monster!"
"Xia Zhi, what you've done has broken the law! Don't you understand?" Jiang Mianmian was almost laughing in exasperation.
"It's not just me who broke the law, but also your adoptive mother!" Xia Zhi cried hysterically. "Ha...she found you but didn't hand you over to the police, secretly raising you herself. Isn't that a crime?"
"Let me tell you, I already called the police yesterday! The police should be investigating this in her hospital room right now! Hahahaha..."
Jiang Mianmian clenched her fists and stared intently at her.
She was certain that this woman had truly gone mad and was now fighting like a cornered beast, desperate to drag everyone around her down with her.
However, Xia Zhi miscalculated once again.
Jiang Mianmian curled the corners of her lips, took a deep breath, and said casually, "Is that so? Then let me tell you, my mother has already gone to the police and explained everything!"
"What?"
