Chapter 631: Chapter 631: Got Tangled Up_1

In the end, Xia Qingtian called the police.

By the time the police arrived, she cooperated with them to gather evidence and then took a cab home.

She knew that the matter wouldn’t settle so easily. Those who had affronted her would not let her off the hook; she wasn’t going to risk her safety. From the next day, she got the human resources department to arrange for two personal bodyguards to ensure her safety.

After sorting all of this out, Xia Qingtian received a call from the police.

The case involving her damaged car had been cracked. After conducting their investigations, the police had apprehended the crime suspect.

When she learned that the person behind the plate-crashing plot bore the surname Zhu, she wasn’t surprised at all. She wasn’t someone who courted trouble. Apart from Shi Qian, the only troublemakers were members of the Zhu Family.

The act of smashing her car wouldn’t impact her in any way. Given Shi Qian’s character, she knew he wouldn’t do something like this.

The only ones likely to do this would be the Zhu Family.

They had smashed her car to first, intimidate her, and second, vent their anger.

Now that the police had apprehended someone, she stopped worrying. She decided to let the law take its course against the person who smashed her car.

Wondering if it was because one of their family members was caught or because of the security personnel around Xia Qingtian, the Zhu family had been surprisingly quiet recently.

Xia Qingtian was happy about this development.

She was too busy to waste time on the Zhu Family. Rather than toiling with them, she would better use that time to find new projects and resources for the company’s artists.

Soon enough, half a month had passed.

Today was the day of Mr. Sun’s inspection of the company.

If all went well, Mr. Sun would provide an additional investment. With that funding, the Star Entertainment Company could move ahead of schedule with its plans to go public.

Therefore, Xia Qingtian attached great importance to today.

She had begun preparations a week earlier.

Last night, she checked everything again, confirming all arrangements were perfect before she felt peace of mind to go home and rest.

First thing in the morning, Xia Qingtian, joined by Cheng Bingbing and Huo Qilin as well as some capable colleagues, went downstairs to the company lobby to welcome Mr. Sun with a banner.

At ten in the morning, Mr. Sun’s car arrived punctually.

Xia Qingtian immediately stepped forward to welcome him.

Seeing the respect he was given, Mr. Sun was pleased and in a good mood, saying, "You are too kind."

"It’s our duty..." Xia Qingtian, knowing that Mr. Sun had a high regard for Cheng Bingbing and Huo Qilin, introduced them saying, "Bingbing and Qilin have long heard of Mr. Sun’s reputation and today is a good opportunity to know you."

Cheng Bingbing and Huo Qilin, aware it was his investment that saved the company, also showed their utmost respect for him.

Mr. Sun was highly satisfied with this.

He expressed his admiration for Cheng Bingbing and insisted on a photo and an autograph later.

Seeing his fondness for Cheng Bingbing, Xia Qingtian was not flustered, because she had checked his background before discussing potential business collaborations and knew he was a person of upright character.

The admiration he expressed was purely professional.

Cheng Bingbing also felt that Mr. Sun’s gaze was not lewd or greasy, and knowing he had no ill intentions towards her, she agreed to his requests.

She cleverly flattered Mr. Sun, who was very pleased with the compliments.

After greetings were exchanged at the entrance, Xia Qingtian led Mr. Sun into the company.

Just as they were about to enter the building, something suddenly flew towards them. One of the bodyguards Xia Qingtian had hired quickly blocked it. The object that was thrown had fallen to the ground and shattered with a loud bang.

A faint smell of rawness spread through the air.

Xia Qingtian looked down and found the object that had crashed was a raw egg.

Before she could react further, more eggs were thrown at her all at once.

Despite their rigorous training, the bodyguards were not gods. They couldn’t effectively fend off a barrage of eggs coming from all directions.

Xia Qingtian felt a pain on her forehead.

Immediately afterwards, a cold liquid began sliding down her face.

Before she could react, more eggs were thrown at her.

"Xia Qingtian, you wicked woman, you’ve ruined my son. I will seek justice for him..." The elder Mrs. Zhu was furiously hurling eggs at Xia Qingtian while cursing her.

Xia Qingtian, ignoring her own disheveled state, protectively covered Mr. Sun and said, "Mr. Sun, there’s a bit of unexpected trouble here. I’ll have Bingbing and Qilin take you to the company."

Hearing her words, although Huo Qilin and Cheng Bingbing were anxious for Xia Qingtian they knew they needed to prioritize the bigger picture. Everyone in the company knew how much importance Xia Qingtian attached to Mr. Sun’s inspection today.

This matter absolutely couldn’t be mishandled.

"Mr. Sun, this way please," Cheng Bingbing said promptly, sensing Mr. Sun’s admiration for herself. She immediately took over the responsibility of showing Mr. Sun around the company from Xia Qingtian.

Even though the egg-throwing incident wasn’t aimed at him, Mr. Sun’s mood had soured and the pleasure of his arrival was completely ruined.

Even when facing Cheng Bingbing, his expression was strained.

However, to give face to Xia Qingtian, he didn’t leave immediately. The inspection proceeded as Mr. Sun followed Cheng Bingbing into the company.

After Mr. Sun left, Xia Qingtian’s face was frozen in a cold expression.

She looked coldly at Mrs. Zhu and her group, suppressing the urge to lash out physically. Grinding her teeth, she asked, "Have you had enough? What exactly do you want?"

Mrs. Zhu seemed to feel no guilt at all; she continued to act self-righteous.

"As I said before, unless you release my son and return our money, I, an old woman, will not give you any peace," she threatened with her walking stick, "I’m going to give you trouble every day."

Xia Qingtian was well aware that this family had latched on to her. No matter how she explained, they would likely not believe her unless she could restore everything Zhu Wei had lost.

She wasn’t insane!

Zhu Wei, the disgusting man who tried to use her under the table pretext also created so much trouble for her.

She wished nothing but misery for him at this point, so why would she help him?

With this thought in mind, Xia Qingtian bluntly said, "Not to mention I can’t help Zhu Wei, even if I could, I wouldn’t. Everything that’s happening to him now, he has brought it upon himself."

Her words succeeded in reigniting Mrs. Zhu’s anger.

"Vixen, I knew you were no good. Now your true color is showing, huh?" She tried to move forward to hit Xia Qingtian with her walking stick.

Unfortunately for her, Xia Qingtian’s bodyguards were blocking her path and she couldn’t get near her.

Just as she was grappling with the bodyguards, the sound of police sirens filled the air.

Quickly, Mrs. Zhu and her family members were hauled away by the police for causing a public disturbance.
