NOVEL NEXT Chapter 23 Take Away!
The night deepens, at Southern City Hospital, emergency room.
The red light of the operating room shines brightly. As the esteemed president of Jian Group, Jian Hongsheng is pacing anxiously at the door, while a crying woman in the hallway annoys him to no end.
"Why are you crying! What's the use of crying now? Can it solve any problems? Can you cry our son back to health?" Jian Hongsheng roars angrily at his wife.
"Jian Hongsheng, why are you being harsh to me? Your son ending up like this is also your responsibility! Your people are unreliable. That Ah Hao, he actually disobeyed your orders secretly and didn't deal with that Jiang brat, which resulted in our son being crippled. Why don't you settle accounts with him?" Jian Hongsheng's wife, Yao Bilian, shouted angrily.
Jian Hongsheng's face immediately darkened. This is really the pot calling the kettle black. He had sent people all over Binhai to find Ah Hao, but he was nowhere to be found, raising Jian Hongsheng's anger to a new height.
"Ah Hao has never taken my orders lightly before. There must be a reason. I must find him!" Jian Hongsheng said coldly and dialed Wang Meng's phone.
"Old Wang, what's the situation now? Is that kid detained?"
After the call connected, Jian Hongsheng asked bluntly.
"President Jian, the situation might be different from what you think. In a while, my people might go to the hospital to get details of the events at Dynasty KTV from you and there's also other matters. I hope you can cooperate." On the other end, Wang Meng was uncharacteristically formal, speaking in an official tone.
"Wh-what?" Jian Hongsheng couldn't believe his ears. In his mind, that Jiang brat who crippled his son should have been detained long ago. What awaited him should be severe punishment, staying in prison being the lightest consequence!
He even planned to send someone inside to deal with Jiang Feng after Jiang Feng was dealt with by the authorities, but now Wang Meng is telling him things are not as he imagined, and someone else is coming to verify the situation with him?
"Old Wang, you must be mistaken! What happened to that brat?" Jian Hongsheng asked angrily.
"Temporarily released, but he's not allowed to leave Binhai City and must be available for summons and investigation at any time." Wang Meng said plainly.
"Mr. Wang, I think you're joking with me!" In anger, Jian Hongsheng stopped calling him "Old Wang": "Someone who injured my son, crippled him, and your action department lets him go, then turns around to investigate me? What kind of reasoning is this?"
"President Jian, I hope you can calm down too. If you had told me the whole truth from the start, things wouldn't have come to this."
Wang Meng's voice also turned cold: "Why didn't you tell me from the start that your son went to Nangong Family and had a confrontation with Jiang Feng at the banquet after being humiliated? You also didn't mention that you sent your bodyguard Ah Hao to get revenge on Jiang Feng, and now he's missing while Jiang Feng returned unharmed? Just a few words from you turns black into white; I think, President Jian, you are not much of a friend."
"Wang Meng, you... you..." Jian Hongsheng was furious but speechless.
"Let's leave it at that. When my people arrive, I hope you'll cooperate well. The situation isn't entirely against you, it's just a matter of investigation and evidence collection." Wang Meng finished and hung up the phone.
"Damn it!!" Jian Hongsheng was so angry that he almost smashed his phone, burning with rage.
"What happened?" Yao Bilian quickly asked him.
Jian Hongsheng's face was so gloomy it was nearly frozen. What exactly went wrong for Wang Meng to suddenly turn against him and even want to investigate him?
"I'm asking you, speak quickly!" Yao Bilian urged her husband.
"Shut up!" Jian Hongsheng, feeling irritated, walked to the side.
He thought about calling Wang Meng to ask about the specifics but ultimately held back.
He himself was at fault too, having lied to Wang Meng initially. Now that Wang Meng was humiliated into anger, Jian Hongsheng had nothing to say.
Not long after.
Jian Hongsheng indeed heard footsteps coming from the stairway. He looked down and saw a brisk figure leading people up!
Situ Yan!
After leaving Yi Garden District, Situ Yan immediately called Wang Meng, saying she wanted to interrogate Jian Hongsheng, as if Jian Hongsheng indeed sent bodyguards to kidnap Jiang Feng, he wouldn't be able to escape blame.
Wang Meng dared not offend this hothead and immediately expressed support, assigning people to her to lead a team to Southern City Hospital.
"Captain!"
At the entrance of the emergency room, a previously assigned action officer by Situ Yan to look after Jian Yu came up to greet upon seeing the captain leading the team.
"Mm!" Situ Yan nodded, then under the watchful gazes of Jian Hongsheng and Yao Bilian, she walked straight to them: "Jian Hongsheng, I need to learn some information from you."
"Are you the action officer under Wang Meng? My son was crippled, and instead of interrogating the person who did it, you come here to get information from me?" Despite Wang Meng's prior warning, Jian Hongsheng was still somewhat enraged!
"According to the information I've gathered, tonight, your son attended Nangong Honghu's birthday at the Nangong Family, made some unreasonable demands, and ended up clashing with Jiang Feng who returned after being missing. Is this true?" Situ Yan asked directly.
Although she had now become "enemies" with Jiang Feng, when it came to official matters, she could still perform her duties impartially and without fear!
"Damn it! Are you out of your mind? My son is still lying unconscious in the operating room, and you come here talking about this?" Jian Hongsheng grew even more furious!
"Jian Yu wanted Nangong Qingcheng to drink with him, and Nangong Qingcheng is already engaged to Jiang Feng. So essentially, your son initiated the provocation and openly insulted someone else's fiancée, making it understandable for Jiang Feng to throw him out of the banquet hall." Situ Yan said with a cold, expressionless face.
"Damn it, what the hell are you trying to say?" Yao Bilian asked angrily.
"Afterward, your son couldn't swallow the grievance and called you to send your bodyguard Ah Hao with a few men to wait for Jiang Feng at the Nangong estate for revenge. This is also a fact, right? However, your bodyguard and those men later lost contact, while Jiang Feng returned unharmed. You completely lost control of the situation, didn't you?"
"Shut up! Which unit are you from? How dare you talk nonsense here; do you believe I won't tear your mouth apart?" Yao Bilian threatened viciously at Situ Yan, baring her teeth.
Situ Yan glanced at her, sneered, and continued: "Then, Jiang Feng went to Dynasty KTV to settle scores with your son, coincidentally stopping an assault from happening. This is also true, correct?"
"Shut up! Shut up! Stop talking, you stinky woman! I'll tear your mouth apart now!"
Yao Bilian finally lost it, like a shrew, rushing to grab Situ Yan, but Situ Yan skillfully restrained her and threw her to the ground!
Ignoring Yao Bilian's loud wailing, Situ Yan coldly said, "I am Situ Yan, an action officer from the Southern City branch, action number 9018. If you have any complaints, you can report, but now I'm arresting you for assaulting an action team member. Additionally, once Jian Yu wakes up and recovers, I will also interrogate him regarding the intimidation attempt and attempted assault, along with your sending hitters, Jian Hongsheng. I will investigate everything clearly!"
"You!!!" Jian Hongsheng's blood pressure shot up in rage; he nearly passed out as his vision blurred.
His head buzzed with thoughts; has the world turned upside down? Could his dignity and power as Jian Hongsheng be trampled so recklessly?
"Little bitch, you're ruthless! Just wait; sooner or later, I'll strip that skin off you!" Jian Hongsheng said venomously.
"Take her!" Situ Yan said without many words, handing the bawling Yao Bilian to her subordinates to take away. Then she faced Jian Hongsheng fearlessly, "Jian Hongsheng, I'm waiting for you to strip this uniform off me!"
