Chapter 243: One Disaster After Another

“I’m not sure. Maybe he wants to investigate something. I didn’t ask him.” As they chatted, they soon reached the police station. Tang Xi looked at the tall building and pursed her lips. “Is he here?” She looked at Xiao Jing and asked.

Xiao Jing shrugged. Tang Xi walked into the police station, asking as she walked, “Jing, you haven’t been home the past week. Did you have a part in the breaking financial news these two days?”

Xiao Jing raised his eyebrows and took a look at Tang Xi. He said, when he found that Tang Xi’s expression looked normal, “A man like me will be too embarrassed to tell people I’m working overtime if I’m not doing something big, right?” He looked so proud.

The corner of Tang Xi’s mouth twitched and she carried on walking.

…

In a VIP ward of a hospital of City A.

Lu Guangxiong was standing in front of Lu Hongkun’s sickbed and looked at Luo Xiaoli who was holding Lu Hongkun in her arms and crying her heart out, saying coldly, “Stop crying! Look at yourself!”

Upon hearing his words, Luo Xiaoli immediately looked up and yelled at him, “My son was almost beaten to death! Why can’t I cry? Isn’t he your son?! How can you have the heart to see him like this? Look, how badly he was wounded by that little b*stard!”

Lu Guangxiong frowned. Luo Xiaoli immediately sneered when she saw Lu Guangxiong’s face darkened. “What? You don’t want to hear me scold your favorite son? So what? He still takes you as his enemy and tries to kill you! Look at your company! Without the two billion Yuan, all our efforts these years will go down the drain!”

Lu Guangxiong fell silent with a dark face. Lu Hongkun immediately cried out loudly when he saw Lu Guangxiong didn’t speak, and shouted to Luo Xiaoli, “Mom, I ache! I ache all over!”

Luo Xiaoli’s face turned grim and ferocious and she yelled at Lu Guangxiong, “Go tell that little bastard! If he doesn’t pay us two billion Yuan, we’ll sue him and put him into jail! Anyway, the public opinion is in favor of us!”

Lu Guangxiong narrowed his eyes. “Okay, I’m going to go talk to him…”

Just then, the door of the ward was pushed open and a young man walked in, holding a cell phone he said solemnly, “Chairman, something bad happened… Please have a look at this…”

After Lu Guangxiong watched the video, he widened his eyes and flushed. It had been quite a while before he shouted angrily, “It’s taken out of context! It’s taken out of context!”

This video was skillfully edited and Qiao Liang’s scolding words were deleted. What they said was cut or edited skillfully. If he wasn’t present, he would have believed what the video showed…

The young man said seriously, “Now the public opinion isn’t in our favor, and some netizens even…” He showed Lu Guangxiong the most searched hashtags of the microblogs. Lu Guangxiong flushed and was speechless when he read it, and Luo Xiaoli even screamed out loud, “Shameless! They’re shameless! Utterly shameless!”

“Come on, tell them it’s all fake! It happened in their company. They must have edited the video!” Luo Xiaoli almost threw the young man’s cell phone to the ground.

The young man could hardly protect his cell phone in time. Fortunately, Lu Guangxiong was calmer than Luo Xiaoli. He said coldly, “So what?! If he doesn’t want to go to jail, he has to give us the money and help us out!”

With that, he took out his cell phone and was about to make a call, when the young man received a call. His face sank and he looked up at Lu Guangxiong in shock. Noticing his strange look, Lu Guangxiong put away his cell phone and looked at the young man. After he hung up the phone, Lu Guangxiong asked him, “What happened?”

The young man looked at Lu Guangxiong awkwardly, he was about to speak but then hesitated.

Lu Guangxiong said angrily, “Out with it!”

“Chairman, they just said Qiao Liang had surrendered himself to the police… and the tax evasion evidence of our subsidiary companies have been submitted to court, and…”

Luo Xiaoli screamed, “Can’t you just say it all at once?!”

“And it’s spreading online that General Manager is a pedophile and has abused a little boy to death…”

“What?!” Lu Guangxiong widened his eyes and glared, his skin flushing bright red at Lu Hongkun. He covered his chest with his hands and gasped. “Abused a little boy to death?”

Lu Hongkun didn’t look at him and the young man said in a low voice, “It’s said that policemen are coming to arrest General Manager…”

Lu Guangxiong was shocked to hear that. Ignoring the pain in his body, he jumped off the bed and hugged Lu Guangxiong’s legs, crying desperately, “Dad… Dad, help me! Help me! I don’t want to go to jail!”

Having no time to ask her son if it was true, Luo Xiaoli grabbed Lu Guangxiong’s arm. “Come on, do something about it!”

Lu Guangxiong shook off Luo Xiaoli’s hand, kicked Lu Hongkun off and said coldly, “You bastard! How dare you kill people?! Since you killed people, why did you let others find out about it?!”

Lu Hongkun cried. “I didn’t know. I played with that boy with my friends. I didn’t know that boy was so…”

Thud…

Before Lu Hongkun finished, Lu Guangxiong had kicked him again. He was kicked away and his face hit against the bed leg with a thud. Luo Xiaoli was angry to see her son hit and yelled at Lu Guangxiong, “Why did you get mad at Hongkun?! Why don’t you do something…”

Bang…

Before she finished, the door was kicked open. Two policemen in uniform entered and said coldly, “We found, upon valid evidence, that Lu Hongkun killed a boy in Aishang KTV. This is the arrest warrant. Please go with us.”

Luo Xiaoli rushed up and shielded Lu Hongkun behind her, yelling at the policemen, “Nonsense! Get out! Get the f*ck out!”

Lu Guangxiong dragged Luo Xiaoli away and looked coldly at the policemen, saying, “Sir, please take this murderer away!”

Luo Xiaoli and Lu Hongkun looked at him in shock. Lu Guangxiong cast a threatening glance at Luo Xiaoli and said coldly, “Shut up!”

“Dad…” Lu Hongkun was taken away by the policemen before he could say anything more.

Luo Xiaoli didn’t realize what had happened until Lu Hongkun was taken away. She jumped up and scratched Lu Guangxiong on the face. “How can you sit by and watch Hongkun being taken away! How can you let them take our son away?!”

Lu Guangxiong was furious and slapped Luo Xiaoli, saying coldly, “That bastard! He made a mess of the company and now he even killed a boy in such a disgusting manner! I’m almost finished. How can I get him off the hook?!”

Luo Xiaoli had never been hit by Lu Guangxiong before. Stunned at Lu Guangxiong’s slap, she looked at Lu Guangxiong with horror and shouted hoarsely, “You hit me?”

Lu Guangxiong ignored her and Luo Xiaoli university. She rolled up her sleeve and scratched at Lu Guangxiong. “I’m going to kill you!”
