"What's wrong? What happened?" Mrs. He asked anxiously.
He Xu looked at his mother, who had raised him, and felt both angry and resentful.
"Mom, are you satisfied now? We don't need to leave the capital."
"We don't have to go anymore?" Madam He was overjoyed upon hearing this, believing it was due to the effect of her hiring a TV station to expose the situation. "I knew it! They were just bluffing. They wouldn't actually dare to kick us out of the capital. This huge capital doesn't belong to the Fu family..."
"I won't have to leave, but you might have to send me to jail." He Xu glared hatefully at his mother, who was more trouble than she was worth.
"In jail? What jail?" Madam He asked hurriedly, sensing something was wrong.
He Xu didn't want to talk to her anymore, so he called Madam Wei first.
"Auntie, the company's Hengyang No. 2 project is under investigation. People from the procuratorate and the tax bureau are already at the company..."
Madam Wei had just gotten up and was instantly flustered upon hearing the news.
"Hasn't this matter been suppressed for a while?"
He Xu sighed, "At this time, who has the ability to bring up the things you've been keeping hidden? Only the Fu family."
At the beginning of the company's establishment, it used improper means to win the bid for the Hengyang No. 2 project, which was also the project that allowed the company to gradually gain a foothold in the capital.
However, it was impossible for a newly established company to secure a project like Hengyang No. 2. So, the Wei family bribed the relevant officials, and his company successfully won the project, bringing huge profits to the company.
In the process, they also used every means to evade taxes.
In recent years, thanks to the protection of the Far East Group, no one has been able to trace these matters back to him.
Now that everything has come to light, his company will not only face huge fines, but may even have to serve several years in prison.
This matter had been peaceful for the past few years, but it was brought up again today, and the prosecutors came to our door so quickly.
Ultimately, it all comes down to the Fu family; only the Fu family can bring up the things that the Wei family has been suppressing.
Madam Wei tossed her hair and asked through gritted teeth.
"We told you to leave last night, why didn't you leave?"
If they had left last night, even if the prosecutors came to the company today, they could still find a way to plead with the Fu family and make the matter disappear.
But now that the prosecutors have gone to the company, if they leave now, it will be considered absconding.
He Xu glanced at his mother, who kept asking questions, with a headache. "Forget it, there's no point in saying all this. I'll go to the company and see. Aunt, could you help me hire a good lawyer?"
However, if the Fu family is determined to make his life difficult, even the best lawyer might not be of any use.
"I understand. Don't say anything when you get there. Let's think of something else," Madam Wei said.
Last night she was worried that the Fu family might continue to pursue the matter after seeing the reports online.
As expected, it happened.
He Xu hung up the phone, looked at his mother, Madam He, with a deathly pale face, and then hugged his wife, who was in tears.
"Take care of yourself and your child. I may not be able to come back for a while."
"What exactly happened? Explain yourself!"
Mrs. He didn't understand what had happened, but she vaguely sensed from her son's expression that it wasn't a good thing.
He Xu grabbed his coat and car keys and rushed to the company to be questioned by the procuratorate.
Mrs. He chased after him, only to see He Xu drive away. She went back home and, without thinking twice, dialed the police.
"The police station? Someone wants to harm my son, and my whole family—the Fu family, the Fu Group..."
