Chapter 336: 336 Torturing scum in progress, requesting Sister Lan for [2 more updates]

Qin Yu hadn’t even had a chance to react before his hands were handcuffed.

His cell phone had fallen to the ground, yet the voice continued, soft but clear enough to ensure Qin Yu heard every word.

"Mr. Qin," Ye Wanlan smiled, "I said I’d give you a big present. Do you like this gift?"

With that, the call ended, and Qin Yu was controlled by the police, completely immobilized, "What are you doing? This is illegal entry! Do you know who I am?!"

He was the high and mighty General Manager of Qin Corporation, the future Chairman. Although he had done many bad deeds, there were always people to take the blame for him, and he had always slept well at night.

Qin Yu never expected that the police would be after him.

"Of course, Mr. Qin Yu, the future Sect Leader of the Qin Family." A police officer gave him a once-over, saying coldly, "But a crime is a crime, no matter who you are, you must face legal punishment."

Qin Yu’s gaze was cold, "What crime did I commit? Out with it!"

"Mr. Qin, the Zhou Family filed a case, alleging you were involved in orchestrating a car accident to murder Zhou Heyuan, the eldest son of the Zhou Family," the chief detective said indifferently. "The Zhou Family has provided all the evidence, and the police have initiated an investigation."

Boom!

It was as if thunder exploded by his ear, Qin Yu’s mind went blank in an instant.

The car accident involving Zhou Heyuan?!

That incident had happened almost three years ago, so why would it resurface now?

"Take him away!" The chief detective ordered coldly, and two officers escorted Qin Yu into a police car.

In South City, a gentle breeze caressed the face.

The director was distributing life-saving equipment to the participants to prevent accidents at sea.

This sea led directly to the Global Center, but due to Global Center’s strict immigration system, only those with a pass could enter.

Thus, any approach near the territorial waters of Global Center would be monitored and repulsed.

"We will be filming within the Nanling Sea Area, everyone please do not stray from the group," the director said sternly. "The closer we get to the Global Center, the more rampant the pirates will be, and they especially love to rob Shenzhou’s ships."

Whether it’s Shenzhou’s antiques or modern art, they are of extremely high value worldwide.

Last month, a ship carrying jade jewelry was robbed at the Nanling Sea; not only was the financial loss severe, but several lives were also lost.

In the end, it was the efforts of Agency 723 that swiftly executed those pirates and rescued the remaining people.

"Come on, one for each person, everyone gets one," Xing Yue took out several sachets from her pocket, "Amulets, make sure you take one, they can save your life at a critical moment."

After seeing Xing Yue’s abilities, the crew had a lot of respect for her.

Shen Yeqiu carefully stored the amulet close to her body and jokingly asked, "There are rumors that the Penglai Saintess can walk on the sea. I wonder if Taoist Xing Yue would allow us a glimpse of her powers?"

"With my current level of cultivation, that’s impossible," sighed Xing Yue. "Better to hope that Lanlan will carry you flying than to count on me."

Shen Yeqiu was stunned, looking at Ye Wanlan blankly, "Miss Ye?"

"Children love to spout nonsense," Ye Wanlan smiled faintly. "Teacher Shen, humans can’t fly."

Xing Yue muttered under her breath, "I’m not a child, I’m twenty-five!"

But she didn’t lie; Ye Wanlan indeed had deeper knowledge in Taoist Arts than she did.

Logically, after four or five years, Ye Wanlan should be stronger than her, but...

Xing Yue frowned, looking at Ye Wanlan, her doubts growing deeper.

Ye Wanlan could naturally sense her confusion and casually explained, "My body was occupied by a foreign spirit for four years, and it tried to take over again recently, but I drove it out, and it will never take my body again."

Xing Yue didn’t notice, probably because the signs of other spirits invading her after she repelled the Transcendent Woman had also disappeared.

"Such a thing happened?" Xing Yue was shocked. "Where is that person now?"

"I don’t know," Ye Wanlan’s eyes darkened slightly. "But I will never let her get away freely."

The Transcendent Woman was at the top of her must-kill list.

After a day of successful shooting, as they disembarked, Ye Wanlan received a call from an unfamiliar number from Jiangcheng.

Although unfamiliar, she knew who it was.

Ye Wanlan answered, "Madam Qin."

"Miss Ye, it’s Ah Yu who has made a mistake; I’ve warned him time and again!" Madam Qin choked up. "Can’t you let him go?"

The sudden breakout of the Zhou Heyuan car accident case, she didn’t even need to think to know who was stirring things up.

Only Ye Wanlan could pull this off quietly.

And this phone call confirmed it was indeed Ye Wanlan’s doing.

Jiangcheng was so vast, and yet in her hands, it was but a chessboard!

"Madam Qin, you’re very smart," Ye Wanlan chuckled lightly. "So you should know what the smartest course of action for you is next."

Hearing this, Madam Qin felt as though her heart was being sliced apart.

Of course, she knew, but she was not willing!

How much had she invested in Qin Yu?

Qin Xian was incomparable!

Ye Wanlan did not speak another word to Madam Qin, ending the call.

"Director, I’m going back to Jiangcheng," she turned her head. "I’ll be back tomorrow morning for sure, it won’t delay the filming."

South City was only a little more than a hundred kilometers from Jiangcheng, and the high-speed train took only a few minutes.

"No problem, Miss Ye, take care of what you need to do, there’s no rush," said the director cheerfully. "With Taoist Xing Yue here, you don’t need to worry too much about us."

Ye Wanlan nodded and returned to Jiangcheng with Yan Tingfeng.

By seven in the evening, Qin Zhi was finally released from the villa.

Upon hearing that Qin Yu was arrested, she was not surprised but instead drove to the police station to visit him.

"Zhizhi!" Qin Yu saw Qin Zhi and was somewhat excited. "Zhizhi, you’re quite familiar with the An Family of Harbor City; could you help get in touch with them?"

Qin Yu was now caught in endless panic.

The Zhou Family was aggressive, determined to put him to death.

Patriarch Qin and Madam Qin were besieged with affairs and overwhelmed.

And with the two powerful families, the Qin and Zhou, clashing, the other families would simply watch from afar until both sides were severely damaged before stepping in.

"Why should I help you contact the An Family?" Qin Zhi’s eyes were cold. "Have you forgotten that last month you tried to send me to the bed of one of your business partners?"

Perhaps there were some warmth and affection between them as children.

But when it came to crucial interests as adults, that warmth had long since dissipated.

Qin Yu’s series of actions had chilled her heart.

Unsurprisingly, if she were male, she might have been killed by Qin Yu in her youth.

Qin Yu’s expression didn’t change: "Zhizhi, that business partner is very capable. He lost his wife early on; I understand him, and he would certainly treat you well."

As long as he got out of here, he would still be the celebrated heir to Qin Corporation.

And the Qin Family would definitely not let her go.

"Big brother, have you ever thought about something?" Qin Zhi’s voice was light, but she smiled slightly, "You say you can be Chairman of Qin Corporation, why can’t I?"

Was it because her gender was not permitted?

But she was determined to take that position!

Not only would she not save Qin Yu, but she would also see to it that he spent a lifetime in jail.

Qin Yu’s expression darkened: "Zhizhi, what nonsense are you talking about? Do you think the Chairman’s seat is easy to occupy? You have to deal with many things every day, and the interpersonal relationships are incredibly complex. Do you think becoming the Chairman means you can rest easy?"

"Big brother, if it’s really as you describe, then why are you so fixated on the Chairman’s position?" Qin Zhi laughed, "Because you know, only with that position can you firmly grasp power, and only with power can you control others’ fates."

In ancient times, who didn’t want to be the Emperor?

Even though the Emperor had to bear greater responsibilities, his power was equally great.

How could she not understand the maxim: "Heavy lies the crown"?

Qin Yu’s expression grew even darker: "Qin Zhi, do you think this situation will keep me in jail forever? Let me tell you, no matter what, Mom and Dad will get me out, and what you want will never happen!"

He hadn’t paid much attention to Qin Zhi, solely because she was female and posed no threat to him.

And when Qin Xian was born and attracted the attention of the whole family, he, only five years old, became wary.

If he openly targeted Qin Xian, the rest of the Qin Family would notice.

So he deliberately spoiled Qin Xian, giving him whatever he wanted, turning him into a playboy who knew nothing but indulgence, never posing a threat.

Only Qin Yu had not anticipated that Qin Xian would be foolish enough to block all his own retreats, sending himself to prison.

But he was different from Qin Xian. Without him, Qin Corporation would soon collapse without Qin Xian.

"No, you won’t be coming out," Ye Wanlan stepped out from behind Qin Zhi, her voice indifferent. "Because I won’t allow it."

Three minutes ago, she had provided the police with all the evidence of Qin Yu’s past crimes against others.
