Chapter 161: Chapter 161: The Terrified Thief

"Liu Qingsong, look at the mess you’ve caused." After a brief silence, Mrs. Liu Sr. berated Liu Qingsong furiously.

"Effective immediately, Liu Qingsong is removed from his position as the president of the group, and he is barred from holding any office in the group for the next ten years." At the same time, Mrs. Liu Sr. announced her punishment.

"Mom! You can’t do this! Qingsong is still young, isn’t this too severe?"

"Grandmother! You can’t punish me like this, please spare me this once."

Hearing Mrs. Liu Sr.’s words, both Liu Shirui and Liu Qingsong panicked instantly and pleaded for mercy.

However, Mrs. Liu Sr. was unmoved; she knew clearly that she couldn’t protect these two.

"This isn’t enough!" Yet, the shareholders were not satisfied.

"Then what do you propose?" Mrs. Liu Sr. frowned.

"Convince Liu Xue to return to the Liu Group with her new company, and let Liu Xue continue as the president of the Liu Group." The second largest shareholder, representing the other shareholders, stated their condition.

"That’s impossible!" Mrs. Liu Sr. replied coldly.

Indeed, not to mention that Mrs. Liu Sr. couldn’t lower her pride; even if she could set aside her pride and beg Liu Xue, Liu Xue wouldn’t agree.

Of course not. Liu Xue had just acquired jadeite worth over a billion; how could she bring her new company back to the Liu Group? Liu Xue wasn’t foolish.

"If that’s not achievable, then we can only hold a shareholders’ meeting to dismiss the Liu Family’s positions." The second largest shareholder threatened with a smile.

With his words, everyone in the Liu Family fell silent.

"Fine! I agree with you all." After a period of silence, Mrs. Liu Sr. conceded.

The moment she conceded, Mrs. Liu Sr. looked like a defeated rooster, dejected and crestfallen.

"Good, I’ll be waiting for your good news." After getting the answer they desired, the other shareholders quickly took their leave.

"Useless, I’ll beat you to death, you useless thing. You can’t do a single thing right, what use are you?" After all the other shareholders left, Mrs. Liu Sr. raised her cane and swung it at Liu Qingsong.

"Ah! Ah!" In an instant, the room was filled with cries of pain; Liu Qingsong was beaten severely.

Liu Qingsong’s family felt extremely bitter inside.

But, the other families looked on, gloating at their misfortune.

"Sigh!" After the beating, Mrs. Liu Sr. let out a sigh, feeling very aggrieved.

Driving Liu Xue away and hearing about Liu Xue setting up a new company, she had originally wanted to see Liu Xue make a fool of herself, but she hadn’t expected Liu Xue to obtain the qualification to participate in the auction, and even make a name for herself at the auction; this was something she had never expected.

Now, although she was unwilling, she couldn’t avoid swallowing her pride and begging Liu Xue to come back, just the thought made her feel stifled...

On the other side, after Liu Xue arranged everything, she remembered the jadeite issue.

Thus, she quickly dialed the transport company’s number.

"Hello! Why hasn’t our jadeite arrived yet? Is there a problem?" As soon as the call connected, Liu Xue quickly asked.

"It’s...it’s still on the way!" The other party stammered in response.

Ye Feng, standing nearby, heard the response and frowned, feeling that things weren’t that simple.

Ye Feng had also noticed that the jadeite hadn’t arrived, so he stayed, afraid that it would arrive the next second.

"Give me the phone." Hearing the reply, Ye Feng took the phone and demanded forcefully, "With such a long time, it should have arrived by now, right? Tell me honestly, did something happen?"

"N-no, it didn’t." The other party still would not admit it and tried to explain.

"Don’t lie to me, or I’ll make sure you regret it." Ye Feng coldly threatened.

"Let me speak!" Hearing Ye Feng’s words, someone else took over the call.

"I’m sorry! There really is an issue with the cargo; we are doing our best to search for it, and we believe we will find it soon." The new person on the line finally disclosed the truth.

"How long have you been looking?" Ye Feng asked with a furrowed brow.

"More than a day!" The other party answered honestly.

"If you could find it, you would have by now." Ye Feng chuckled coldly and hung up the call.

"What’s going on?" After Ye Feng hung up, Liu Xue quickly asked.

"The jadeite got lost. I have to go to Xiyun now." Ye Feng responded with some helplessness.

In truth, Ye Feng was ecstatic inside.

Regarding this matter, losing it was better than not. With the goods gone, Ye Feng could seize the opportunity to make those people compensate, making a significant profit.

Therefore, Ye Feng wasn’t worried about the goods being lost; he was more concerned if they weren’t.

Now, not only could he receive substantial compensation, but those jadeites were still in Ye Feng’s possession.

"What? Should I go?" Hearing the goods were lost, Liu Xue quickly asked.

"No need!" Ye Feng shook his head, indicating, "You stay here and manage the company; I’ll sort things out and return promptly."

"Alright! Be safe." Liu Xue nodded and agreed.

After making the arrangements, Ye Feng took Xu Tian and Nameless back to his family home.

Ye Feng temporarily arranged for Nameless to stay at the family home, to keep his sister company.

"Great, another apprentice? Quickly, call him ’Uncle Master’." Seeing Nameless, Ye Qian was overjoyed.

"Uncle Master!" Nameless greeted obediently.

"After I leave, keep an eye on them." After settling Nameless, Ye Feng looked at Xu Tian and instructed.

"Rest assured, Master!" Xu Tian nodded, responding respectfully.

"Now I’m off!" After making all the arrangements, Ye Feng’s chauffeur drove him in a sports car from the motorhome to the airport.

On the road, Ye Feng dialed Li Fei’s number.

"Mr. Ye, what are your orders?" Once the call connected, Li Fei asked respectfully.

"I previously shipped a batch of jadeite worth over sixty billion through xx transport company, but it’s been stolen. You and the Hong Family help me find the culprits." Ye Feng commanded coldly.

"What? Who’s bold enough to dare steal from Mr. Ye? Let’s see if I don’t strip them to the skin." Hearing someone had stolen from Ye Feng, Li Fei was instantly furious.

Moreover, after hanging up the phone, Li Fei and the Hong Family issued a bounty order in the jianghu, rallying countless Xiyun forces to investigate.

The cargo king of Xiyun, while somewhat capable, was nothing compared to Li Fei and the Hong Family.

So, in just over an hour, the culprits were found.

The moment they were discovered, the people who had stolen the goods were dumbfounded.

Indeed, seeing all of Xiyun’s forces looking for them, they were almost scared to death.

"Take them away!" Once the target was confirmed, the leader, Li Fei, instructed.

On Li Fei’s command, these people were brought to Li Fei’s interrogation room, where he prepared to give them a harsh lesson.

Seeing Li Fei’s demeanor, a few with weaker nerves directly wet their pants out of fear...
