Chu Beiyuan turned his head and looked at the tightly closed door of the Mu family's old house.
Behind the door is the battlefield that Mu Xuewei is about to step into.
When she returns, she will be greeted by endless storms.
The media's blockade, the family's blame, and the outside world's ridicule.
Even her own breakdown.
However, at this moment, he was already busy taking care of himself.
"I'm sorry, Xuewei," he murmured softly, his voice tinged with guilt.
But the guilt was fleeting and he forced it down.
Now is not the time to get emotional.
All this can't be a coincidence.
Shi Heng's movements were faster and more brutal than he had expected.
Every step accurately hit his soft spot.
Chu Beiyuan clenched his fists. He knew that he had no way out.
Shi Heng's offensive was like a violent storm, and he had to seize the initiative in this game.
Otherwise, what awaits him will be an abyss of no return.
He took a deep breath and his eyes became sharp again.
"Since you want to play, I'll accompany you to the end."
…
An hour later.
A press conference was held in the conference room of Chu Building.
The long table was filled with microphones and cameras.
Chu Beiyuan was wearing a black suit and standing on the stage with a stern expression.
His eyes swept across the dense crowd of reporters below the stage, without a trace of emotion in them.
"Thank you all, friends from the media, for coming here," he began. "Regarding the false accusations made against me online recently, I would like to clarify this."
As soon as the words fell.
The door of the conference room was pushed open, and two bodyguards walked in with a middle-aged couple.
They lowered their heads, clutched the corners of their clothes tightly with their hands, walked slowly, and looked a little uneasy.
"These two are Ah Jiu's parents." Chu Beiyuan gestured sideways, "They will explain the truth to everyone."
Ajiu's father took the phone tremblingly and stammered, "We...our eldest son, Ajiu, did something wrong. He...he was involved in drugs and tried to frame Master Chu. We...we just found out..."
Ajiu's mother lowered her head, tears streaming down her face, but she didn't dare to say a word.
Chu Beiyuan took over the conversation, feigning grief as he spoke, "Ajiu was my subordinate for many years, and I treated him well. However, not only did he betray me, he also violated my woman. During the argument, I accidentally hit him to death with a vase. This was the most painful moment of my life."
He paused and glanced at the audience.
He continued, "As for the late-night speeding and crashing into the roadblock, it was done by another of my men. He has proactively admitted his mistake and is willing to assume all legal responsibility."
Before he finished speaking.
A man in black stepped forward, lowered his head, and said, "I was impulsive and brought trouble to Master Chu and society. I am willing to accept the punishment of the law."
More than a dozen reporters in the audience exchanged glances and whispered to each other.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was all a carefully planned drama.
But fearing the Chu family's power, no one dared to question it.
Chu Beiyuan bowed slightly and said sincerely, "I am also at fault for not properly controlling my subordinates. I deeply apologize for the trouble this incident has caused to society. At the same time, I will actively cooperate with the police investigation and provide the public with the truth."
…
Royal Court Club, Mr. Lei’s office.
On the huge screen, Chu Beiyuan's press conference was being broadcast live.
More than a dozen reporters pointed their cameras at Chu Beiyuan on the stage.
He was answering reporters' questions calmly, as if everything was under control.
Master Lei narrowed his eyes, tapping his fingers lightly on the armrest. He said with a hint of amusement, "I'm curious. You've already found out that the parents gave false testimony because their youngest son was kidnapped. Why don't you just expose them directly? Wouldn't that be faster?"
Renault leaned back on the leather sofa and lazily shook the glass of red wine in his hand.
"Exposing him directly? That would be so boring. I want to play it slowly, like hunting, and watch him gradually fall into despair and lose everything. That's more interesting."
Master Lei shook his head and observed three minutes of silence for Chu Beiyuan.
Chu Beiyuan and Renault are not opponents of the same level at all.
Chu Beiyuan could have provoked anyone else, but he chose to offend this big Buddha. He was simply courting death.
Master Lei pondered for a moment and reminded, "According to my subordinates, the Third Young Master arrived in the capital half an hour ago. We must be more careful, he is not an easy person to deal with."
Renault smiled disapprovingly, "So what if he came to the capital? Even if he knew that Lucas's death was caused by me, what can he do? He can't do anything to me."
Mr. Lei wanted to say something else, but suddenly, a new situation appeared in the press conference on the screen.
In the picture, the door of the conference room was pushed open and a group of people in dark blue uniforms walked in one after another.
Their appearance instantly quieted the venue.
Everyone's eyes were focused on this group of uninvited guests.
The leading man was tall and had a serious face, holding a document with a red official seal in his hand.
He said loudly, "We are law enforcement officers from the Inspection Bureau of the State Administration of Taxation. We have received an anonymous report that the Chu Group is suspected of major tax evasion. We are now investigating the Chu Group in accordance with the law. Please cooperate with us!"
As soon as the words fell.
Several law enforcement officers behind him walked directly towards Chu Beiyuan and showed their law enforcement credentials and relevant documents.
More than a dozen reporters raised their cameras to record this moment.
I didn’t expect to have such an unexpected gain today.
