“Please rest assured, Mr.

Mu, if the situation is true, we will arrest Han Zhenhai as soon as possible.

At that time, we may need your company’s employees to testify in court, so please cooperate then.”

After learning about the incident from Mu Shanshan’s secretary, Chen Qi ordered the arrest of Ge Hui and others and had them sent to the station immediately.

She even personally made a call to report the incident to the station.

If it were just a common employee disturbance case, Chen Qi wouldn’t have taken it so seriously.

However, this case involved business espionage, and Mu Group was quite well-known throughout Zhonghai City.

Especially after Mu Shanshan took over Mu Group, its performance soared, and it was listed by the City Council as a key enterprise to support.

Such a company almost had its president’s office smashed, the floor-to-ceiling windows shattered, and core business documents were almost stolen.

If reported, it would be enough to cause a minor media storm.

Fortunately, the situation hadn’t escalated further and was still under control.

Naturally, Chen Qi wanted to prevent the case from worsening.

“Thank you, Chief Chen.

Also, regarding today’s matter, please do not publicize it.

I will call Deputy Director Xie to discuss this.”

Mu Shanshan extended her hand and shook hands with Chen Qi.

Her expression remained cool, but it wasn’t as distant as when she faced Ge Hui and the others.

“Don’t worry, Mr.

Mu, I understand.”

Chen Qi also understood that Mu Shanshan did not want her to reveal too much to the media.

For a large conglomerate like Mu Group, the company’s image was obviously very important.

For commercial criminal cases like this, it was not Chen Qi’s first time handling them, and she knew how to communicate with the media.

Hearing what Chen Qi said, Mu Shanshan also breathed a small sigh of relief.

As long as the police and Mu Group maintained a similar stance, and with the effort of Mu Group’s PR department, the negative impact on Mu Group could be minimized.

“Mr.

Mu, that person standing behind you must be the one who injured Ge Hui.

I would like him to come to the station with me to record a statement which will serve as evidence in court.”

Although Lin Fei was partially hidden behind Mu Shanshan and wore a mask, Chen Qi had deeply memorized his appearance and build from his multiple harassments.

Despite not being able to recognize him if he turned to ashes, Chen Qi, based on her impression, still noticed something suspicious.

Suspecting in her heart, she thought of taking Lin Fei to the station to verify his identity.

If it was indeed Lin Fei, Chen Qi would have a score to settle with him.

Lin Fei could guess what Chen Qi was thinking; otherwise, he wouldn’t have hidden behind Mu Shanshan.

If Chen Qi wanted to take him away, she had to get past Mu Shanshan first.

As Lin Fei thought about it, with Mu Shanshan, the icy president, shielding him, Chen Qi would likely leave without success.

However, Mu Shanshan actively stepped aside, “It’s necessary.

Lin Fei, why don’t you go with Chief Chen?”

What the hell, why should it be necessary?

This was utterly inappropriate!

Lin Fei was stunned, as the development of the situation completely exceeded his expectations.

He was so focused on glaring at Mu Shanshan, who had betrayed him, that he didn’t notice the sudden icy expression on Chen Qi.

“Lin Fei, it is you!”

Mu Shanshan called out Lin Fei’s name and stepped aside, allowing Chen Qi to immediately confirm Lin Fei’s identity.

In that moment, Chen Qi clenched her teeth, her eyes filled with icy rage.

However, fortunately, Chen Qi still had her wits about her and did not rashly rush up to fight Lin Fei as he had expected.

Of course, Lin Fei didn’t think this meant everything was fine.

The calm before the storm usually includes a moment of tranquility.

“Haha, it’s Chief Chen, after all.

I was actually thinking of visiting you sometime.

How could you be discharged from the hospital so soon?

How about you go back for a couple more days and give me a chance to visit?”

While Lin Fei tried to lighten the mood with Chen Qi, he didn’t forget to glare at Mu Shanshan.

After all, he was Mu Shanshan’s husband and had just helped her avert a document leak crisis.

Yet, Mu Shanshan had still cleanly sold him out, causing Lin Fei to sigh inwardly at the ruthlessness of capitalists, completely forgetting the words he had once said to Mu Shanshan.

“Less nonsense, Officer Zhang, handcuff him for me.”

Chen Qi was well aware of Lin Fei’s glib tongue, admitting that she couldn’t outtalk him, so she simply didn’t waste words and signaled her subordinate to handcuff Lin Fei.

Damn it, even in front of Mu Shanshan, the retaliation had begun.

If this reached the police station, who knows what would happen.

Seeing Chen Qi’s vengeful mentality, Lin Fei couldn’t help but curse inwardly.

“Chief Chen, this isn’t appropriate.”

Mu Shanshan finally didn’t give up on Lin Fei completely.

Seeing Chen Qi was about to handcuff Lin Fei, the great president finally spoke up for him.

“Mr.

Mu, you are unaware, this Lin Fei is very dangerous!

If we don’t handcuff him, I worry he might do something to harm your personal safety.”

Chen Qi grabbed the handcuffs from an officer standing behind her and approached Lin Fei, handcuffing him without further discussion.

Lin Fei could have evaded, but Chen Qi’s threatening tone and look in her eyes were too dangerous.

To avoid Chen Qi acting irrationally in anger, Lin Fei allowed her to cuff him.

“Wearing a mask in broad daylight, he must be thinking of harming some innocent women again.”

As Lin Fei kept making eye signals to Mu Shanshan, hoping his wife would have a change of heart and speak more on his behalf, Chen Qi spoke while pulling down Lin Fei’s mask.

Lin Fei, whose thoughts were constantly shifting between Mu Shanshan and Chen Qi, had forgotten he was wearing a mask.

Startled when Chen Qi pulled it off, Lin Fei instantly thought, ‘This is bad.’

As expected, when Mu Shanshan saw Lin Fei’s lips and the neat rows of teeth marks, her lips that were about to speak sealed shut.

Her exquisitely beautiful face turned as cold as eternal frost.

Mu Shanshan was a bit puzzled.

She didn’t see Lin Fei wearing a face mask when he left the house in the morning, but when he got to the office, he was wearing one.

Mu Shanshan even assumed that Lin Fei wore the mask to avoid retaliation from Ge Hui and others, trying to disguise himself.

Now, seeing those neat and obvious bite marks on Lin Fei’s upper and lower lips, Mu Shanshan finally understood why Lin Fei was wearing a mask.

Those bite marks definitely belonged to some female employee at the company.

Lin Fei wore the mask to clearly guard against her, Mu Shanshan!

Upon this realization, murderous intent began flickering in her beautiful eyes.

“Lin Fei…”

Just by seeing Mu Shanshan’s expression, Lin Fei knew he was in trouble.

He wanted to explain, but Mu Shanshan didn’t give him the chance.

“Chief Chen, you can take him away now.”

“Then I will take my leave.”

Being a woman herself, Chen Qi keenly sensed that something was off with Mu Shanshan’s emotions.

Although curious, she knew what to ask and what not to ask.

Right away, Chen Qi dragged Lin Fei towards the office door.

Lin Fei deliberately lagged a step behind Chen Qi, waiting for her to exit Mu Shanshan’s office knowing well Mu Shanshan’s mood was off.

But he couldn’t resist turning his head back to Mu Shanshan and saying, “Handing me over to her, you’re literally plotting to murder your own husband!”

“How can I be a widow if you don’t die?”

Mu Shanshan’s words nearly choked Lin Fei!

…

“Chief Chen, you didn’t hesitate to abuse your power to bring me here.

Surely, you’re not trying to repeat old tricks?

If I remember correctly, you were the one at a disadvantage last time.”

Inside the interrogation room of the Zhonghai Puning District Police Station, Lin Fei was lounging in his chair, legs crossed.

Facing him was Chen Qi, steely-faced.

Previously, Lin Fei had been brought here by Chen Qi when he helped Xu Yingying in a bar fight.

Chen Qi had intended to settle personal scores but ended up being outmaneuvered by Lin Fei almost risking more than intended.

Now revisiting the place, Lin Fei brought up the past, causing Chen Qi to clench her teeth tightly.

If it weren’t for needing something from Lin Fei and knowing she wasn’t a match for him, Chen Qi would have already rewarded Lin Fei with a few slaps.

In the interrogation room, handcuffed but still bold enough to be so arrogant toward Chief Chen, Lin Fei was the only one who had preformed so over the years.

The others, without exception, had been violently suppressed by Chief Chen.

“Lin Fei, I warn you, don’t get too cocky.

Just based on what you did today, I could detain you for ten days to half a month.”

Chen Qi took a few deep breaths, her chest heaving with anger as she menacingly threatened Lin Fei.

“That’s strange.”

Lin Fei eyed Chen Qi from top to bottom, voicing his suspicion.

“What’s strange?”

Thinking there was something amiss with herself, Chen Qi quickly checked and instinctively asked.

“With your temper, you shouldn’t be this calm.”

“Lin Fei, you’re courting death!”

Bang!

Chen Qi slammed her hand down on the table, yelling out.

“That’s more like it.”

Lin Fei nodded slightly.

“I…”

Chen Qi gasped for breath, nearly fainting from anger.

Firing a resentful glance at Lin Fei, Chen Qi realized that he was deliberately provoking her, probably scheming something else.

If it weren’t for needing Lin Fei’s cooperation for an issue, Chen Qi might have been unable to stand his taunting and would have lunged at him to fight.

This was exactly what Lin Fei wanted.

Last time in the interrogation room, he was close to succeeding when he was interrupted, something he deeply regretted.

A regret that must be addressed, Lin Fei was thinking of provoking Chen Qi to have her lunge at him, repeating the incidents to finish what was unfinished.

Unfortunately, Chen Qi didn’t fall for it, which really surprised Lin Fei.
