Chapter 18 Chapter 18 Abusing a pregnant omega is a felony. …
Chen Louchen pressed his fingertips against the edge of the desk, his knuckles turning white from the force.
He had heard of this name. This person was the second-in-command of the Supervisory Department and was considered a rare dark horse in recent years. He used to work in a subordinate district. It was said that he had brought the GDP to the first place in the imperial capital in less than three years. He was indeed an interesting person.
"Address." There was no emotion in Shen Louchen's voice, as if he was just asking for an ordinary meeting place.
Assistant Zong immediately handed over the tablet. "It's in a private club in the west of the city. Fu Jiachi usually meets with guests there in the afternoon." He paused and added, "According to intelligence, he has been frequently involved in the overseas gland black market recently."
Chen Louchen took the tablet, the blue light of the screen reflecting the coldness surging in his eyes. The glandular black market is often intertwined with the abuse of power. This network is larger than he expected.
"Prepare the car." He took off his suit jacket and casually draped it over the back of a chair, revealing a neatly pressed white shirt with the cuffs rolled up to his forearms, revealing his clean-cut arms. "Notify the legal department to prepare a report on the abnormal transactions in Fu Group's overseas accounts. Send it to my email in half an hour."
Assistant Zong was startled. The minister was going to target Fu's business and obviously had no intention of leaving any room for Fu Jiachi.
The yellow pear wood door of the club slowly opened, and the air was filled with the mixed smell of cigars and cologne. Fu Jiachi was leaning against the bar, a wine glass between his fingertips, chatting and laughing with a few well-dressed men. It was not until everyone fell silent that Fu Jiachi turned around and saw Chen Louchen. He did not expect Chen Louchen to appear here so suddenly. Fu Jiachi's smile froze for a moment, and then he piled up hypocritical enthusiasm again: "Isn't this Minister Shen? What brings you here?"
The people behind him immediately dispersed tactfully, leaving only the bartender behind the bar carefully wiping the glasses.
Chen Louchen walked across to him, his eyes swept across the expensive whiskeys on the bar, and finally landed on Fu Jiachi's face: "Mr. Fu seems to be very free."
"No, no," Fu Jiachi laughed, "It's just a small gathering with friends. Minister Shen is busy with official duties, how can he have time to come to a place like this?" There was a subtle provocation in his tone. He knew that Chen Louchen always disdained such occasions, and he was just looking for something to quarrel with.
Chen Louchen didn't answer, but took out his phone from his pocket. On the screen was a transfer record between Fu Jiachi and a foreign man. The amount was huge and the source was unknown. "I heard that Mr. Fu is very interested in overseas investment. Do you have any ideas about bringing such a good project to the Security Department?"
Fu Jiachi's expression changed instantly, and the wine glass shook in his palm, almost spilling the liquid: "What does Minister Shen mean? Are you investigating me?"
"It's my duty." Chen Louchen said calmly, "But compared to this, I'm more concerned about Mr. Fu's subordinates. For example, that alpha suspected of corruption and abuse of omegas, I heard that he was promoted by Mr. Fu?"
Fu Jiachi's eyes sharpened. Du Zhengqi had come to him a few days ago and said that he was probably being targeted. He had bribed many people, but he had never expected that it was for the crime of abusing a pregnant omega. Everyone in the capital knew that the so-called "Omega Security Department" was just a fictitious organization, which was used to better hide the operation of the fertility clinic. This made Fu Jiachi argue a little: "Minister Shen, you are using your authority to investigate me because of an omega's family matter. Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?" He deliberately emphasized the word "omega" with contempt. "Besides, even if it is omega abuse, it is a personal family dispute. Minister Shen doesn't need to worry about it."
"Private matter?" Chen Louchen chuckled, but there was no warmth in his laughter. "Abusing a pregnant omega is a serious crime. Has Mr. Fu forgotten the law, or does he think the Fu family is above it?" He took a step forward, and his powerful alpha aura instantly suppressed the entire space. Fu Jiachi subconsciously took a half step back, and a pinching pain came from the glands on the back of his neck.
"I remember that Mr. Fu has been in poor health recently," Chen Louchen's voice suddenly softened, as if he was chatting, "The stock price of Fu Group has been unstable recently. If there is another scandal involving the senior management's involvement in the glandular black market and abuse of power..." He didn't say anything else, but just looked at Fu Jiachi meaningfully.
Cold sweat oozed from Fu Jiachi's forehead. He knew that Chen Louchen was not threatening, but stating the facts. Chen Louchen held more than just the evidence in his hands. If he dared to come, he must have been fully prepared. Fu Jiachi gritted his teeth and finally said, "He's in the custody of the Supervisory Department. Minister Shen can take him away if he wants."
"A wise choice." Chen Louchen retracted his aura, as if the oppression just now was just an illusion. "As for Mr. Fu's 'overseas investment', the Ministry of Justice will follow up." He turned to leave, but as if remembering something, he turned back and said lightly, "Mr. Fu doesn't look well. It's better to avoid exposure to stimulating things. I heard that the illegal glandular drugs on the black market have serious side effects."
Fu Jiachi's pupils shrank as he watched Chen Louchen's retreating figure. His hand clenched tightly around his wine glass, his knuckles turning white. How could Chen Louchen even know he was using a gland-strengthening potion? Had he even checked this out? A chill ran down his spine. For the first time, he truly realized just how unfathomable Chen Louchen was, a true top-tier alpha of his species.
When Chen Louchen got back into the car, Assistant Zong had already brought the people to the car. The alpha in the back seat was beaten black and blue. When he saw Chen Louchen, his eyes were full of fear. Chen Louchen didn't even look at him, but just said to Assistant Zong: "Hand it over to the police, and submit all the evidence together."
"Yes." Assistant Zong paused and couldn't help asking, "Minister, you just said Fu Jiachi used black market drugs..."
"The smell from the glands on the back of his neck is wrong. It's the smell of cheap inhibitors mixed with unknown hormones." Chen Louchen closed his eyes and rubbed his brow. "The fact that an alpha needs to rely on drugs to maintain his aura speaks volumes." He recalled Fu Jiachi's aura that had suddenly withered just now, and a cold arc appeared at the corner of his mouth. "It seems that the Fu family is not a monolithic entity. They actually allow their son to use inferior inhibitors."
As we all know, there are two types of inferior inhibitors: those with weak effects but cheap, and those with rapid effects but with great side effects.
A smile appeared on the corner of Chen Louchen's lips.
Fu Jiachi...which type would he be?
When the car drove back to the villa, the setting sun shone obliquely, dyeing the lawn golden. Chen Louchen pushed open the door and saw Fu Xu squatting in the corner of the living room, carefully wiping the dust in the cracks of the floor. Butler Chen stood beside him with a feather duster, his face full of helplessness.
"Madam insisted on coming herself, saying that she wanted to do something within her ability." Butler Chen saw Chen Louchen and hurriedly explained.
Fu Xu raised his head abruptly upon hearing the sound, his cheeks flushed from the exertion, the rag in his hand still dripping with water. "Mr. Shen...Mr. Shen is back?" He stood up in a panic, a few stains on his apron. "I think the house is quite clean, so I just wanted to...do something."
Chen Louchen's eyes fell on his wet cuffs and red fingertips, and a corner of his heart suddenly softened. He walked over and took the rag from his hand: "These will be done by the servants."
"I... I want to do something." Fu Xu lowered his head, his voice as thin as a mosquito. "I used to do this often in... in the Fu family. I wouldn't damage anything at home."
"Do what you can." Chen Louchen handed the rag to the housekeeper next to him, and then said to Fu Xu: "Come with me to the study."
Fu Xu followed Shen Louchen upstairs step by step.
The study was filled with the faint scent of ink and old books. Chen Louchen took a stack of papers from the bookshelf and placed them on the desk: "Here are some basic tests. You take them first, and I'll see your level of knowledge."
Fu Xu looked at the test paper on the table. There were some basic math problems and Chinese common sense on it. The handwriting was vigorous and sharp. It was obviously prepared by Chen Louchen specially for him. He picked up the pen, his fingertips trembling a little. He hesitated for a moment before starting to answer the questions.
Chen Louchen stood behind him, watching Fu Xu write stroke by stroke. When he encountered a question he didn't know how to answer, he would subconsciously bite his lips and frown slightly.
Half an hour later, Fu Xu put down his pen, a trace of shame on his face: "I wonder... if there will be a lot of mistakes..."
Chen Louchen picked up the test paper and quickly glanced through it. His math score was average and his Chinese score was passable, but his reading comprehension and writing skills were obviously insufficient. He thought of Fu Xu's experience and understood that it was already good enough to remember such a good score in such an environment.
"It's okay." Chen Louchen put the test paper down and said calmly, "Starting tomorrow, I will take time to teach you every day and send you to a private school in a week."
Fu Xu suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of shock: "Thank you, Mr. Shen." He had thought that Mr. Shen was just saying it casually, but he didn't expect that he really took this matter to heart.
"Well." Shen Louchen looked at his sparkling eyes, revealing a rare hint of gentleness, "You need normal social interaction and education."
Fu Xu's eyes suddenly turned red. He lowered his head, his shoulders trembling slightly. This was the first time that someone planned his future so naturally, treating him like an ordinary person, giving him hope and possibilities.
At this moment, Chen Louchen's phone rang. It was Lin Yunzhou calling. He walked to the window and answered the phone. After listening to a few words, his face gradually darkened.
"Got it. Send the report over." He hung up the phone, turned and looked at Fu Xu with a complicated look in his eyes.
Lin Yunzhou's test report was more complicated than he had expected. Not only were Fu Xu's glands developmentally retarded, but he also had a rare genetic defect. This defect seemed to be related to a certain environment he had been exposed to for a long time in his childhood. What worried him even more was that a trace element mentioned at the end of the report exceeded the standard, and this element was usually only found in high-concentration inhibitor production waste.
He guessed right, the Fu family definitely has a secret.
