Chapter 641: Liu Yuan Was Very Frustrated

Xiao Yi wanted to say something else, but upon seeing the young nurse’s big eyes staring at him curiously, his face couldn’t help but turn unnatural. He had never been looked at by a young girl as if he were a national treasure before.

He decided not to say anything after all. Given her curious demeanor, it probably wouldn’t have been useful to say anything, and it might even lead to some misunderstanding.

He simply stopped talking, got out of the bed, and took out his phone. He scrolled to Liu Yuan’s number and dialed it.

.....................

Liu Yuan was incredibly busy.

To describe him as "overwhelmed" was an understatement!

Since yesterday, he hadn’t closed his eyes even for a moment. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked extremely haggard.

Liu Yuan was also very angry, so angry that he was almost driven to murder.

But he couldn’t kill anyone, nor did he dare to, so he could only curse, and he cursed at the people from G City Municipal Criminal Police Team.

"I’m telling you, I won’t let you off, I will definitely hold you accountable. This Is defamation!"

Liu Yuan angrily stared at the police officers standing before him, without a trace of awe or fear, only sheer anger!

He had gone to the police to ask them to help find the murderer who tried to assassinate Chen Jianguo and bring those criminal culprits to justice. When he reported the crime, considering the potential negative impact Chen Jianguo’s assassination could have, he specifically instructed the police to only conduct the investigation secretly and not to leak any information. However, the news was still leaked out!

Because they leaked the information, Jianguo Group had suffered immense losses to date. The stock market had been shrinking continuously. Had he not called for a trading halt today, he couldn’t even imagine how much the stocks could have dropped.

Even so, the losses from just yesterday were already beyond words. Moreover, calling for a trading suspension today was done out of sheer desperation. After the suspension, the spread of the news seemed even more certain. Numerous partners and clients, including the major banks he collaborated with, were incessantly calling him. From yesterday until just now, his phone hadn’t stopped ringing until he simply shut off his external business phone to get a moment of peace.

"Secretary Liu, please stay calm, I know you are in immense pain, and we can understand your feelings..."

Looking at Liu Yuan’s eyes, full of hatred as if he wanted to swallow her whole, and his blunt tone, Zeng Xiaomei frowned. She didn’t like being spoken to in this way, especially by these wealthy individuals who acted as though their wealth gave them entitlement, which she disliked the most. Yet, she ultimately suppressed her frustration and spoke in the calmest tone possible. She also knew that this time, Liu Yuan couldn’t be entirely blamed. The police, under the current circumstances, indeed had some culpability.

In that moment of speaking, Zeng Xiaomei felt as frustrated as one could possibly be.

She really couldn’t have imagined they’d be so unlucky. No sooner had Liu Yuan finished reporting to the police than the news of Chen Jianguo being assassinated spread far and wide within half an hour, making it seem as if the police had leaked the information themselves.

If I find out who that bastard was, spreading this rumor and tarnishing our police’s reputation, this young lady will make sure he wishes he could neither live nor die!

Resolved deep in her heart, Zeng Xiaomei’s teeth clenched with a grating sound.

"Calm down? Calm down my ass, how do you expect me to calm down now? Did you see what happened to our three company shares in the afternoon yesterday? And did you just see? Do you have any idea how many calls I have received since yesterday and the losses Jianguo Group has suffered because of this? Even if you’re incompetent and can’t solve the case, why must you hurt us like this? Do you have any professional ethics left at all? I’m telling you..."

Zeng Xiaomei hadn’t finished speaking when Liu Yuan interrupted her, getting angrier and angrier as he spoke, the events from yesterday to today fueling his fury.

"Enough!"

Hearing Liu Yuan’s increasingly excessive comments, Zeng Xiaomei couldn’t take it anymore and suddenly shouted.

"Secretary Liu, I understand you are furious right now. We can pretend we didn’t hear what you just said, but I hope you understand that it’s not necessarily someone from our police who leaked the news. I trust our team’s professionalism completely; it’s absolutely impossible that they would leak the news. I also promise you that one day, I will find the real culprit. However, I hope not to hear such excessive remarks from you again," Zeng Xiaomei said sternly, her eyebrows furrowed, with no hint of politeness in her cold voice.

"You..."

Liu Yuan hadn’t expected that this female police officer would dare to be so brazen in front of him. He was so angry he almost jumped up, his finger pointing at her, trying to say something, but for some reason, meeting Zeng Xiaomei’s fierce gaze made him lose his nerve, and he couldn’t finish his sentence.

"Officer Liu, hasn’t Director Chen been saved now? Maybe you could discuss this with them; it might help a little," another police officer following Zeng Xiaomei suggested, watching Liu Yuan and Zeng Xiaomei face off like gamecocks in a ring, the atmosphere tremendously strained.

Bullshit!

Such an idiotic idea, do you think I couldn’t think of that myself?

Do I need you idiot police to teach me?

I’ve been telling them since last night that Director Chen is unharmed and that the news was just a rumor, but they have to believe it for it to matter, right? I don’t know if they’ve all eaten shit or what, preferring to believe that dumb piece of gossip from who-knows-where rather than his words as the secretary of Jianguo Group no matter how many times he explains or how dry his mouth gets, insisting on having Director Chen pick up the phone.

How can Director Chen answer the phone when he’s still lying in the ICU?

He wanted to scold this police idiot, but looking at Zeng Xiaomei across from him, he finally held back, merely giving him a cold glance.(This story is to be continued. If you enjoy this work, you’re welcome to support it by voting on qidian.com, your support is my greatest motivation.)
