Chapter 380 Unyielding
Liao Zhixin's acting was superb. In his feigned rage, he issued the order, as if driven by anger and guilt towards the deceased.
At this moment, Liu Ran was also stunned. She never expected that a life would be lost. More critically, constables were now showing up to arrest them, intending to take both her and Chen Yang. What should they do now?
Liu Ran wasn't afraid of compensation, but the situation had completely surpassed her expectations.
Chen Yang's brow furrowed. At this moment, a security guard behind Chen Yang's eyes revealed a fierce glint. He quietly said to Chen Yang, "Celestial Venerable, do you want us to deal with these people?"
Chen Yang shook his head. This was a big city, after all, and there were so many people. He certainly couldn't resort to such barbaric methods to deal with Liao Zhixin.
A subordinate beside Chen Yang was disdainful. He gritted his teeth and said, "Celestial Venerable, that bald man is clearly deliberately bullying us. I am 100% sure he is in cahoots with these troublemakers."
"They carried two coffins and brought two dead people, all to get Director Liu arrested. Why should we be polite to such a scoundrel? Let's just crush them."
"Or you can directly issue a Celestial Venerable Decree and have them arrested and interrogated."
Chen Yang glared back at the subordinate and said, "Boy, don't cause trouble."
Saying that, Chen Yang directly picked up his phone and called Meng Qingxue.
By this point, Chen Yang had completely seen through Liao Zhixin's plan. These people's goal wasn't compensation, nor was it simply to disrupt his company's business. They wanted more.
They wanted to arrest Liu Ran and himself. One could imagine that once they were taken to the other side's territory, Liu Ran would surely be humiliated.
Furthermore, after Liu Ran was captured, they would certainly seal off the Yangyangyang company. Coupled with media reports, this nascent company would suffer a devastating blow, perhaps never recovering.
The opponent's tactics were truly ruthless.
However, Chen Yang was unconcerned. He dialed Meng Qingxue's number. After a few rings, Meng Qingxue's impatient voice came through: "Chen Yang, you still have the nerve to call? Do you know that I haven't been able to play a single game in these five days? I've slept less than eight hours in total? You've ruined me."
"Even now, there's a crowd of family members wanting to thank me. I'm about to collapse."
Chen Yang interrupted Meng Qingxue's complaints and said, "Meng Qingxue, this is an emergency. Hurry and bring your people to Yangyangyang Company. A bald man has brought a group of people to cause trouble."
"They intend to arrest Liu Ran and Su Ya. The other party are constables, and they seem to be quite high-ranking. Hurry up."
Meng Qingxue immediately said, "Okay, I'll be there in five minutes. Hold on for five minutes."
Then, Meng Qingxue directly hung up.
She stood up and hurried out. Then Meng Qingxue paused, scratched her head, and muttered, "Huh, why do I listen to Chen Yang so readily?"
However, she then thought of Liu Ran and Su Ya's safety and became anxious again. She went straight to the main hall and shouted, "Someone, bring thirty people with me on a mission. An urgent mission."
When the people in the hall heard Meng Qingxue personally requesting to go on a mission, they instantly became energized, jumping up as if injected with adrenaline.
"Me, me, me, Captain Meng, take me."
"Official Meng, you must take me on this mission!"
"Chief Meng, I'm your most capable subordinate, you absolutely have to take me!"
A group of people scrambled, immediately surrounding Meng Qingxue, desperately trying to accompany her on the mission.
And their titles for Meng Qingxue were all over the place.
This was mainly because Meng Qingxue's promotion had been too rapid.
She used to be an ordinary constable, then a deputy captain, then a captain, and now she had reached the position of deputy director.
What's more, she had recently achieved another great merit. Those in higher positions were already considering promoting Meng Qingxue to replace Shen Chong.
As for Shen Chong, he was to be transferred elsewhere.
Therefore, the titles for Meng Qingxue were a jumble at this time.
Meng Qingxue waved her hand, "Alright, alright, everyone, let's go, let's go. Quickly, the mission is urgent."
Following that, twenty police cars, sirens blaring, sped rapidly towards the headquarters of Yangyangyang Company's Blue Sky Building.
At this time.
In front of the Blue Sky Building.
Liao Zhixin was directing his subordinates to directly escort Liu Ran, Su Ya, and Chen Yang away.
Chen Yang stepped forward, shielding Liu Ran.
Liao Zhixin sneered upon seeing this. He said to Chen Yang, "What are you trying to do? Assault a constable? Defy orders? Let me tell you, it's best to comply obediently, otherwise, your crime will be compounded."
Chen Yang chuckled and looked at Liao Zhixin, saying, "Old bald man, it's probably you whose crime will be compounded, not me. Tell me, you've worked hard to reach your current position, and you're on the verge of a stable retirement. Why must you get involved in this mess, why must you do such disgusting things? Haven't you considered the consequences?"
Liao Zhixin's expression changed drastically upon hearing this. He immediately stepped forward and lunged at Chen Yang, raising his right hand with handcuffs and moving them towards Chen Yang's wrist.
Chen Yang didn't hold back. He suddenly raised his hand, and with a "slap," he directly slapped Liao Zhixin across the face.
With a crisp "snap," Liao Zhixin, the bald man, rolled several times on the ground. The sun shone on his bald head, emitting a hazy glow.
This action stunned everyone. No one had expected Chen Yang to dare to physically assault someone, let alone Liao Zhixin.
Liao Zhixin was the director of this regional branch, a truly high position. Yet Chen Yang dared to slap him. This had truly blown up.
In the crowd, Yang Long, wearing sunglasses, a mask, and a baseball cap, had been hiding in the back, watching the commotion.
He had previously worried that his uncle wouldn't be able to apprehend Chen Yang. But now, seeing Chen Yang actually make a move and slap his uncle, he couldn't help but smile smugly.
This slap would cause immense trouble. Chen Yang, this good-for-nothing, was indeed destined to be an underling, utterly clueless about the rules. He didn't understand that this slap could land him in jail for at least ten years.
Thinking of this, Yang Long couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The next moment, he quickly covered his mouth, preventing himself from making a sound, but his heart was filled with immense excitement and joy.
He couldn't resist the urge to roar with laughter.
It seemed that next, Chen Yang would spend his days in prison, and he would no longer have to see that annoying face every day.
If Chen Yang went to jail, Liu Ran would become a widow. Then, when Liu Ran's company went bankrupt, if he could get close to Liu Ran, perhaps he'd have a chance to win her over.
In essence, there wasn't any major conflict between him and Liu Ran. A woman this beautiful, he had to seize the opportunity!
Thinking of this, Yang Long felt his spirits soar.
