Chapter 699: Unexpected
Huo Yunting's expression was indifferent. "Well, hand them all over. They're a bunch of traitors. There's no point in keeping them."
"But this is really risky. If we fail..."
"This is the only chance. Whether or not we fail, this is the only way to go."
"All right."
Koning nodded, took his things and turned to leave.
In less than an hour, the documents showed up at the police station.
The Huo's shareholders were still asleep when the police broke into the house and took them away.
It was not until they saw the evidence of their crimes in the police station that their faces turned pale. However, some of them shouted that it was slander and demanded to see their lawyers.
The news that more than a dozen Huo shareholders were arrested by the police spread online that night, immediately causing heated discussion.
"Don't you think this is a bit strange? Huo Yunting just stepped down as the president of Huo's company, and so many shareholders have been arrested. Someone must be secretly plotting against Huo's company!"
"Haha... These people act so righteous on a daily basis, but they actually do disgusting things in private. They really should be locked up in jail for life!"
"Tomorrow morning, Huo's stock price will plummet. If you don't want to be taken advantage of, sell your stocks now!"
"Even if I can come up with it, I have to sell it. I'll probably be stuck with it as soon as the stock market opens tomorrow!"
…
In addition to being discussed online, the Huo family is also discussing this matter internally.
[Do you think this incident is related to Mr. Huo? ]
After all, the person who collected so much evidence of crimes committed by Huo’s shareholders must be someone within the Huo’s.
[I suspect so. It's just that these shareholders were relatively honest in the past, so Mr. Huo didn't hand these things over to the police. This time, these shareholders united to stab Mr. Huo in the back, so he simply threw in the towel!]
"If you ask me, these shareholders deserve it. President Huo usually handles all the business negotiations, while they just sit back and wait for their dividends. Yet, they're not satisfied and have even teamed up to pull President Huo down from the position of president. They're simply a bunch of ungrateful people!"
[I also support Mr. Huo... But, if this happens, will the Huo company go bankrupt? ]
As this message was sent out, the group fell into silence. This issue was also what they all worried about.
It took more than ten minutes before someone came out to send a message.
[Oh, don't worry. Mr. Huo brought the Huo Group to where it is today. He's like Mr. Huo's child. He definitely won't let the Huo Group go bankrupt. He probably just wants to get back to his position as the CEO!]
"That's right, don't worry. There are so many job opportunities in Beijing anyway. Even if Huo's goes bankrupt, we can still find another company!"
The group started to become lively again, but everyone's heart was still shrouded in a shadow.
After all, they have worked at Huo's for a long time and don't want it to go bankrupt, nor do they want to look for other jobs.
Not long after Xiao Muzhen returned home from the hospital, he saw the news that a shareholder of the Huo Group was taken away by the police late at night.
She frowned and immediately called Huo Yiyi, but the phone was turned off.
At this time, Huo Yiyi should not be asleep yet, why is her phone turned off?
Suddenly, Xiao Muzhen had a bad feeling in his heart.
She quickly dialed another number that she knew by heart. After just a few rings, the call was connected.
"Huo Yunting, is Yiyi at home now?!"
There was silence for two seconds before Huo Yunting's deep voice came over. "No, she told me a few days ago that she wanted to go out for a trip to relax. What's wrong?"
Huo Yunting's words completely shattered the last glimmer of hope in Xiao Muzhen's heart.
Huo Yiyi went to Country M!
"She had previously investigated some things about the Tang family and told me she was planning to go to Country M. I tried to dissuade her and thought she had figured it out. But her phone was turned off when I called her just now. She must have gone to Country M!"
Upon hearing this, Huo Yunting's expression instantly darkened. He said in a cold voice, "I'll have someone check right away. Don't worry for now. She might really have gone out to play."
Although they tried to comfort Xiao Muzhen in this way, they both knew in their hearts that Huo Yiyi had most likely gone to Country M.
Recently, the Xiao and Huo companies have been in trouble one after another, and she is definitely not in the mood to go out and play at this time.
"Well, let me know immediately if there's any news!"
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Muzhen was anxious. If Huo Yiyi really went to Country M, he must find a way to bring her back quickly, otherwise every day she stayed there would increase the danger.
Soon, Huo Yunting called.
"I asked Koning to check, and her name was on the flight to Country M last night."
Xiao Muzhen's heart sank immediately. "I'll book a ticket right away to bring her back."
"Wait, I will..."
Before Huo Yunting could finish his words, Xiao Muzhen hung up the phone.
She booked the fastest flight, packed a few clothes, and drove directly to the airport.
As soon as he arrived at the airport gate, he was stopped by Huo Yunting.
"Zhenzhen, calm down. Even if you go to Country M right now, you don't know where she is. It's such a big city, where are you going to find her?"
"Then tell me, what should I do? Just sit here and do nothing?"
Seeing her excited expression, Huo Yunting frowned, "That's not what I meant. I've already sent people to find her location and sent my men there. Xiao Corporation has a lot of things to deal with right now, so leave this matter to me, okay?"
Xiao Muzhen bit her lower lip, took a deep breath and said, "The Xiao family's affairs are not as important as her safety. I will go to Country M first. Send me a message after you find her location."
Seeing Xiao Muzhen walking straight into the airport, Huo Yunting grabbed her wrist.
"Zhenzhen, I can't let you take any risks."
Country M is under the control of the Tang family. Once the Tang family knows that Xiao Muzhen has gone to Country M, they will definitely take action against her.
"But Yiyi is in danger now. You know why she went to Country M to investigate the Tang family, don't you? If it weren't for the Xiao and Huo companies, she wouldn't have gone there."
"I know. I'm her brother, and I worry about her more than you do. But the current situation is that if you go to Country M, it will only put yourself in danger."
"I understand what you mean, but I'm not afraid."
Seeing that she wouldn't listen to him, Huo Yunting's expression turned cold. "You're not afraid, but have you ever thought about the Xiao family and the feelings of those who love you? If something happens to you in Country M, what do you want the Xiao family to do?"
Xiao Muzhen's grip on the suitcase kept tightening, and there was struggle in his eyes.
After a long while, she slowly said, "You have to promise to notify me immediately if you have any news about Yiyi!"
"good!"
Xiao Muzhen turned around to leave, but Huo Yunting took the suitcase from her hand.
"Let me take you home. You're not in a good condition to drive."
