Chapter 1287: Chapter 1283: The Collapse of the Mansion “Lao Liu, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but I also don’t know who did this. I think you can guess without me saying it. Being able to control the direction of public opinion overnight, those pieces of evidence on our side have been verified and found to be true. Such a grand move, this person’s capability is not small, and at least someone in our position can’t achieve this.” Liu Yunhui was stunned by these words: “What do you mean?” Director Ding sighed: “Let me put it this way, a couple of years ago a patrol officer from the Magic Capital Police Station mistakenly arrested a woman with the surname Huo, at that time the whole Magic Capital was turned upside down. It wasn’t just the Magic Capital Police Station that was alarmed, but even the Municipal Party Secretary and the Magic Capital Military Region. This matter even reached our Guangcheng Police Station’s ears.” “Although this incident is different from what I just mentioned about the Magic Capital, being able to appear on live news, I am sure someone in the Imperial Capital is definitely involved. That woman with the Huo surname, I heard she has quite a grudge with your family. I don’t know if my guess is correct, but I need to remind you that she is not someone you can afford to mess with.” Liu Yunhui’s face changed drastically upon hearing this. He knew who Director Ding meant by the woman with the surname Huo, because the reason Hongqiao cut corners and became a shoddy project was all caused by this woman. If on his father Liu Chongren’s birthday banquet, this woman hadn’t gambled on that piece of Worm Jade with Liu Yuxuan and won ten billion, he wouldn’t have suddenly withdrawn funds from the Hongqiao project. All of this was originally planned by this woman, she is so insidious and vicious! Liu Yunhui, with the heart of a petty person harboring the stomach of a gentleman, thought all this was Huo Sining’s doing, yet never considered that every cause has an effect. Liu Yunhui only attributed all the blame to Huo Sining, without reflecting on himself. Regardless of why Huo Sining was pressing the Liu Family step by step, but just with what the Liu Family did to Huo Sining, wasn’t none of it unjust at the beginning? Even the matter of gambling that piece of Worm Jade with Liu Yuxuan was not voluntarily raised by Huo Sining but was completely forced by the Liu Family, riding a tiger and finding it hard to dismount, Huo Sining was forced to agree. “I can’t get involved in this. If you really want to turn this situation around, go to the Imperial Capital and find someone. Isn’t it said that your old master has a good relationship with Elder Qin Lianshan? Maybe if you ask him to mediate, there might still be a chance to salvage the situation.” Director Ding sighed on the other end of the phone, then hung up the call. He was already being considered decent, if he really didn’t want to get involved, he wouldn’t have reminded Liu Yunhui of these things, let alone take the call. Although Liu Yunhui was somewhat resentful of his old friend for being unfeeling, he also knew very well in his heart that if such a thing happened to Director Ding, he would have long found an excuse to decline, and would not have said so much. Liu Yunhui did not know what Liu Yuxuan and Liu Chongren did to Huo Sining in Myanmar. After finishing the call with Director Ding, he quickly went home to discuss the matter with the old master. Unexpectedly, after explaining the situation to Liu Chongren, Liu Chongren’s face turned gloomy. “What did you say? This is that woman with the Huo surname’s doing?” Liu Chongren’s voice was so cold that it carried no warmth. Liu Yunhui shook his head: “I can’t be certain, but I’m ninety percent sure it can’t be separated from her. I was just saying how she could be so generous to take ten billion and leave, it was all premeditated! This woman is deeply scheming and cunning, playing us like a puppet!” A trace of disappointment and regret flashed in Liu Chongren’s eyes. This woman was originally just an orphan from the countryside with no power or background, yet in just short two years, she managed to make such a big name for herself and even made connections with powerful hereditary families like the Gu Family and the Zhou Family. Liu Chongren originally thought that dealing with a woman in Myanmar would be a breeze, but little did he know he would be hoisted by his own petard. Not only did Zadu’s side fail to deal with Huo Sining, but it also brought about such a huge trouble. “Dad, don’t you and Elder Qin Lianshan have a pretty good relationship? Why don’t you talk to Elder Qin about this, the Qin Family is considered a prominent figure in the Imperial Capital and close to the Gu and Zhou families. Even though this matter has blown up a bit, if Master Qin could help us plead for mercy, maybe the Gu and Zhou families would suppress those negative news for Master Qin’s sake!” Feeling anxious, Liu Yunhui couldn’t help but ask. Liu Chongren’s mouth pulled into a sarcastic smile: “Find Qin Lianshan? I fear that before we even approach them, Qin Lianshan will come to deal with us! This matter is probably the doing of those old dogs in the Imperial Capital. I don’t know what kind of charm that woman with the surname Huo has to have the Gu family’s boy wrapped around her finger. And, do you know who that woman represented when she went to Myanmar this time?” “Who?” Liu Yunhui asked instinctively. Liu Chongren sneered: “The President of the China Jade Association, Qin Lianshan! Not only that, but the China Jade Association also appointed that woman as the Vice Chairman! A Vice Chairman not even twenty years old, it’s just laughable!” Liu Yunhui’s heart sank upon hearing this: “Dad, does this mean we just let it be? Are we really going to let our Liu Family’s vast estate be ruined ?” Liu Chongren looked at his son with some disappointment and said, “This mess was made by you, what does it have to do with me how you want to handle it? I’m now in my seventies, and I still have to run around for you. You caused such a big trouble, do I still have to cover for you?!” Liu Yunhui also got a bit annoyed: “Is this really my fault? If it wasn’t for your reluctance to part with that piece of Worm Jade, the company wouldn’t have drawn ten billion in funds in a single night. Without losing that money, how could things have come to this point? At its root, wasn’t it because of your greed and obsession with jadeite?” Liu Chongren, having lived to such an age, was being reprimanded for the first time in his life, and the one reprimanding him was his own son. Instantly, he was so angry that his whole body trembled. Pointing at Liu Yunhui, he shouted “Good” three times in a row and then laughed bitterly amid his rage: This text is hosted at NoveI~Fire.net “I, Liu Chongren, worked hard for so many years to earn this family fortune, and never thought I’d be raising such a plague as you?! It’s really great! I’m old, wealth and reputation are things one can’t take to the grave. Since I’m such an eyesore to you, I won’t stick my nose in here anymore. This family business, you can mess with it however you like in the future, I can’t be bothered!” The stock of the Liu Family dropped to the limit within just a morning, and soon the Industrial and Commercial Bureau intervened and discovered many problems in the Liu Family’s subsidiary companies and jewelry products with quality issues. The massive storm stirred up by public opinion was simply uncontrollable. Such a large group quickly withered in just a few days, leaving people sighing and unable to help but reflect, what exactly led the Liu Family to today’s plight?
