Regret soon overwhelmed him. "As for the financial side, President Liu," the named President Liu felt his back hairs stand on end with sweat. "Keep a close eye on the other projects and retrieve the money with the utmost speed. Additionally, auction off that Nan Kang plot of land." "President, we really shouldn’t... We paid a hefty sum to win that Nan Kang land, and both its feng shui and environment are of the highest quality; it’s our big project for next year. Auctioning it now would be handing other companies an opportunity to take advantage," President Liu protested with urgency. "Are you the president, or am I the president?" Yun Shen glanced at him indifferently. Discover more novels at novel★fire.net President Liu, facing opposition, shrank his neck, "But, this land really shouldn’t be sold." "Then can you cough up two billion? How about that?" President Liu immediately fell silent. The top priority was to weather the current crisis and fill the financial gaps; the Nan Kang land was currently the most valuable. If released to the market now, its value could more than double, definitely a profitable move. Moreover, with a manipulator behind the scenes, the land’s value could double again on this basis. Although the profit wouldn’t be as great as initially planned, in these extraordinary times, the land would have served its purpose well and wouldn’t be a loss. Heads bowed all around for a moment. "As for the northwest project, we should temporarily..." At that moment, the door to the meeting room suddenly swung open, and Liang Yu strode in, whispering something into Yun Shen’s ear, causing Yun Shen’s pupils to suddenly constrict. He gestured inconspicuously with his hand. Liang Yu quickly exited the meeting room. "Let’s conclude today’s meeting here, you may all disperse," he announced, standing up and buttoning his coat, ignoring the gazes of everyone as he quickly left the meeting room. People speculated wildly; Yun Shen appeared so anxious and flustered—what could have happened? As Yun Shen left the meeting room, Liang Yu immediately followed him, speaking rapidly, "The person is in your office, looking quite aggressive. They initially wanted to barge into the meeting room, but I managed to stop them after much difficulty. President, what should we do now?" Yun Shen gave him a glare, "What’s the rush? It’s probably about Gao You’s case; they need our cooperation for the investigation." Liang Yu instantly nodded, "I understand." Back in the office, two uniformed police officers were sitting on the sofa, with Yan Yuzhen serving tea to them. When they saw Yun Shen enter, they stood up from the sofa, "Are you Yun Shen?" "Greetings, officers, yes, I am Yun Shen." The leading officer flashed a badge, "I am Chen Tao, captain of Jiangzhou City Police Bureau’s Criminal Police Squad. We have received a report that you are suspected of child abduction and extortion with intent to blame others. To assist with the investigation, please come with us." Yun Shen narrowed his eyes, chuckling lightly, "I’ve always been a law-abiding citizen. Officers, there must be some mistake." Chen Tao sneered, "Whether it’s a mistake or not will be clear once you come down to the station with us." "Of course; it’s every citizen’s duty to cooperate with an investigation, just..." Yun Shen frowned, "To avoid unnecessary panic and rumors within the company, could you please come in plain clothes?" Chen Tao spoke coldly, "Don’t bother with those tricks, I’ve already shown great consideration for President Yun. Otherwise, you’d be leaving the company in handcuffs right now." Yun Shen frowned, glanced sideways at Liang Yu, and quickly gave him some instructions. Before leaving, Yun Shen spoke in a low voice, "I have one last request, can I make a call home?" Chen Tao looked at his watch, "You have one minute." Yun Shen pulled out his phone and dialed a number. After several unanswered rings, Yun Shen’s anxiety mounted, urging the recipient to answer. Finally, on the last ring, the call connected, and the tender voice of a young girl came through, "Hello, is this Dad?" Listening to this voice, Yun Shen’s tense heart suddenly seemed to find solid ground, his anxiety temporarily subsiding. "Yun Ya, Dad has to go on a bit of a trip. Be a good girl at home, and take good care of Miaomiao." "Okay, I’ll wait for Dad to come back," the girl’s voice was gentle and sweet. Yun Shen gripped the phone, the veins on the back of his hand pronounced. With that, he hung up the phone swiftly, handed it to Liang Yu, and quickly walked away. This might very well be retribution. Strangely, at this moment, he felt a profound sense of relief. Yun Shen being led away by the police indeed caused panic in the company; everyone began to speculate about his offense. Office rumors spread, and anxiety took hold of the employees. With President Gao gone and now the president in this situation, the lower-level staff were in a state of constant fear, worried that the company might close down.
