Not only were Dong Shan's legs weak, but upon learning Ye Qiu's identity, Dong Qun also knelt down on the ground with a thud.
"Peerless King, it's all my fault. Please don't blame my father; he's innocent. I'm kowtowing to you."
Dong Qun kowtowed nine times in a row, until his head bled.
Dong Qun is arrogant, but he's not really stupid.
After learning Ye Qiu's identity, Dong Qun understood that if Wushuang Wang was enraged, no one could protect the Dong family.
At this point, only by admitting defeat and kowtowing can the situation be salvaged.
Upon seeing his son kneel down, Dong Shan immediately reacted and knelt down as well, kowtowing and begging for forgiveness.
Ye Qiu looked down at the father and son, his anger subsiding considerably. He said calmly, "I can let you go, but Dong Qun, you'll have to go to solitary confinement for a month. If I find you out there, I'll throw you in jail immediately."
As for Dong Shan, why don't you voluntarily turn yourself in? You can hand over all the embezzled funds. Is that acceptable?
"This...this..." Dong Shan's face turned ugly: "Wang Zun, I have never embezzled anything, how could I have any ill-gotten gains?"
"Oh, okay, then I'll notify the relevant departments to thoroughly investigate you. If they find nothing in the end, I'll personally apologize to you, but your freedom will be restricted during the investigation."
As Ye Qiu spoke, he reached for his phone to make a call.
"No, no!" Dong Shan hurriedly said, "Wang Zun, I'll turn myself in, I definitely will."
"Okay, if you turn yourself in, the sentence will be relatively lighter, but I will have someone keep an eye on you, so you still need to make this call."
Ye Qiu made a phone call to the people at the Dragon Palace and explained some things to Dong Shan in front of him.
Dong Shan realized the seriousness of the situation and his face turned ashen.
He truly never expected that simply wanting to vent his son's anger would cause such a huge disaster; he felt like killing Dong Qun.
That spendthrift son is absolutely a beast! (ъìQυGΕtV.net)
Not long after, Dong Shan and Dong Qun left.
Ye Qiu turned around, looked at Mu Qing who had a strange expression, and smiled, "It's alright, I'll go to the construction site with you in a bit."
"This is what ruined a finance minister?"
Mu Qing was somewhat dazed.
"Otherwise what? You think it's a big deal?"
"Okay." Mu Qing smiled wryly.
In her mind, that minister was an invincible figure.
But when facing Ye Qiu, what minister was he? He had absolutely no power to resist.
"Let's clear the dishes and then head out."
Ye Qiu reminded him.
"Wait a minute," Mu Qing said. "I think I still need to explain this to you, in detail, otherwise even if you don't overthink it, it will still be a knot in my heart."
"Okay, go ahead and tell me."
Ye Qiu smiled.
"Okay." Mu Qing said, "Dong Qun slandered me, saying that I drank with some boss and stayed out all night at a hotel. He only saw the surface."
I did drink with the boss and went to the hotel with them, but I didn't go home that night.
However, the boss was my uncle. After we finished talking that night, my uncle said that my cousin was also at the hotel and asked me to go and keep her company, so I went and didn't go home.
I never expected these things to be exaggerated so much; it's disgusting.
"So that's how it is. I knew you wouldn't be that kind of person," Ye Qiu said.
"Wait a minute."
Mu Qing immediately made a phone call and put it on speakerphone.
After the call connected, a steady voice came from the other end: "It's Mu Qing. You haven't called your uncle in a long time."
"Uncle, I've been quite busy lately, I'm really sorry."
"It's nothing, it's nothing. How have you been lately? I heard you recently took on a project at Peach Blossom Mansion?"
"My career is going well, but I've been having some personal problems lately that are really bothering me."
I wonder if Uncle still remembers our last meeting, when we went to a hotel together? Someone saw us then, and it led to endless misinterpretations and speculations..."
"There are people like this? It's outrageous! Who do you think that person is? How dare he slander my niece? I'll come to the capital and confront him myself."
"No need for that, Uncle. My boyfriend is right here with me. I want him to hear you confirm this for me, to prove that I haven't done anything wrong," Mu Qing said.
"You have a boyfriend? Give the phone to your boyfriend, I want to talk to him."
"Okay." Mu Qing nodded with a smile and placed the phone in front of Ye Qiu.
"Hello, Uncle," Ye Qiu greeted.
"You're Mu Qing's boyfriend? Kid, what's your name? Where are you from? Tell me." Mu Qing's uncle spoke very rudely.
Ye Qiu didn't mind and smiled, "My name is Ye Qiu, I'm from Qianzhou, and I'm currently in the capital."
"Ye Qiu? What do you do for a living?" Mu Qing's uncle pressed.
"Do I really have to say this? I don't think it's a good idea to say it."
“Tell me, you have to tell me. I need to know if you’re good enough for my niece. If you’re not, I’ll come and deal with you myself.”
“Alright, I’ll tell you.” Ye Qiu said, “I have a position in the Dragon Palace in the capital. Xia Zu also gave me a position, what was it called again, Peerless King, but there’s no real work to do, just loafing around and waiting to die.”
"Holy crap..."
Mu Qing's uncle immediately started swearing, which startled him so much that he dropped his cigarette.
"Uncle, do you think I'm good enough for Mu Qing?" Ye Qiu asked.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, cough, I was very rude just now. If it were you, you would certainly be worthy of me. No, no, it should be our Mu Qing who is unworthy of you."
Mu Qing's uncle hurriedly said.
