"Gu Xi, I'm a Bincheng police officer. I'm arresting you on suspicion of fraudulent bidding exceeding 100 million yuan and disrupting market order. You have the right to remain silent, but every word you say will be used as evidence in court!"
Gu Jia stepped forward to obstruct the police, and the police showed him evidence, which was the video of the bald man and Lin Yu’s WeChat chat records.
Gu Feng asked the bodyguard to move aside, tears streaming down his face, "My daughter is still a minor."
"Mr. Gu, we have to follow the regulations and find a lawyer as soon as possible!" The police took Gu Xi away.
"Dad, save me—"
Gu Feng stood at the door, watching Gu Xi being taken into the prison van. He pursed his lips tightly and crushed the wine glass in his hand. The glass fragments pierced into the skin of his palm, and blood flowed.
The land where the Gu family was preparing to cut the ribbon was also sealed and confiscated by people from the relevant departments because it was suspected of being obtained illegally.
Later, Gu Feng used all his connections and spent a large sum of money to bail Gu Xi out of the detention center.
However, Gu Xi was devastated. After returning home, he stared at the ceiling with lifeless eyes every day, as if he had gone mad, and had to drop out of school.

On the Lin side, after the police took the bald man away, Lin Jiu successfully completed the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Those who attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony on the Lin side also heard what happened at the Gu family's side. Even their land was confiscated. They all felt that they had made the right choice.
Gu Feng spent a lot of money to bail out his daughter. The Gu Group could not make any big waves in a short period of time. The upper class of Bincheng became a situation where the three major financial groups were in full force.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony was over, but the business CEOs who attended the ceremony were reluctant to leave and were waiting to sign cooperation projects with Lin Hong.
Lin Jiu had no interest in these things. After Su Moyun's repeated invitations, he reluctantly got on Huo Shen's Rolls-Royce to visit the Huo family's private airport.
But Huo Shen did help her a lot today, and she did owe him a meal.
Su Moyun had originally agreed to sit in the back seat of the Rolls-Royce with Lin Jiu, but as soon as Lin Jiu sat down, Su Moyun ran out of the car, let Huo Shen in, and sat in the passenger seat herself.
Only Huo Shen and Lin Jiu were left in the back seat.
"Hi!" Lin Jiu greeted awkwardly.
It couldn't be more awkward.
"Hi!"
Huo Shen's reply made Su Moyun feel like three black lines were floating above her head.
"I'm going to sleep, you guys chat." Su Moyun pretended to sleep and lifted the partition between the front and back seats.
This makes the back seat a confined space, and people in the front seat won’t know what happens.
The atmosphere in the car suddenly became ambiguous. Lin Jiu nervously put his hands into his sweatshirt pockets and pinched his index finger with his left thumb.
"Thank you so much today. If you hadn't come, I don't know what would have happened." Lin Jiu really couldn't find a topic to talk about.
"No need to thank me so much. From now on, your business will be my business. I will not allow you to be bullied by anyone."
What beautiful words, they make people feel sweet in their hearts.
"I'll treat you to a meal." Lin Jiu's words seemed nonchalant on the surface, but he was actually very nervous.
"Okay." Huo Shen replied seriously, but the fingertips of his hand resting on his knees tapped rhythmically a few times, with a hint of pride in his voice.
At this time, Lin Jiu saw a white private plane parked on the tarmac through the car window.
"Are you taking this plane from the imperial capital to Bincheng?"
"Yes, you can go anywhere you want."
Huo Shen suddenly turned around and leaned towards Lin Jiu.
