CHAPTER 156: CHAPTER 156: LET YOUR OWN MOTHER DEAL WITH YOU

Xia Mian’s gaze shifted slightly, carrying a hint of chill as it landed on Yu Hongliang. "What the hell are you? Do you think you have the right to lecture me?"

Yu Hongliang was almost knocked backward in shock.

Xia Mian hadn’t given any face to the Xia Family, so how would he possibly give any to someone with the surname Yu?

Having put Yu Hongliang in his place, Xia Mian turned and walked over to the police officers who were taking notes.

The security guard involved looked a bit pale. When he saw Xia Mian, his eyes were somewhat innocent. "Miss, I didn’t push her; she fell on her own..."

Xia Mian nodded. "Since you didn’t do it, there’s no reason to panic. There’s surveillance at our company entrance."

The security guard nodded, still looking uneasy. After all, Yu Hongmei fell down the steps after being stopped by him, and coincidentally, she lost her life there.

"If there’s surveillance, show it to us now," a police officer said sternly.

If they really had evidence proving Yu Hongmei’s death had nothing to do with the security guard, then Yu Hongmei would just have to accept her misfortune.

After all, the security guard’s duty was to keep the Group safe, and Yu Hongmei had insisted on forcing her way in, so stopping her was just part of his job.

Song Juan responded, "Alright, please follow me upstairs."

"You can’t leave!" Xia Yun blocked their path, "You caused a death and think you can walk away from it? Not happening!"

Xia Mian narrowed her eyes slightly, remaining silent, while the previous police officer frowned in dissatisfaction, "Madam, we are handling a case. Please cooperate!"

Xia Yun shivered and, not daring to confront them head-on, reluctantly stepped aside.

Jiang Wen stood up, "I’m going with you! Who knows if you’ll fake the evidence!"

Xia Yun nodded, "Yes, Wenwen, go with them upstairs, make sure they don’t tamper with anything!"

Jiang Wen nodded seriously and followed Xia Mian and the others upstairs.

In Song Juan’s office, Song Juan turned on her computer and pulled up all the surveillance footage within the Group.

Soon, they found the footage from an hour ago.

The video showed Yu Hongmei cursing as she charged up the steps, only to be stopped by the security guard.

One tried to enter, the other to block; soon, they were in a dispute.

But the video clearly showed that Yu Hongmei was aggressive, while the guard kept stepping back, guarding the main entrance, and never touched Yu Hongmei!

Yet as she neared the doorway, Yu Hongmei suddenly slipped and fell backward...

The footage was so clear, it looked like Yu Hongmei was deliberately staging a fall!

Seeing the footage, Jiang Wen’s face turned ghostly pale.

"Here’s the footage; my employee is innocent," Song Juan stood up slowly and said to the two officers.

"We’ll need to make a copy of the video to take with us," one officer said.

Song Juan nodded, "Go ahead."

At this point, things became clear: Yu Hongmei had gone to Song Group to cause trouble but accidentally lost her life there.

"Xia Mian, Song Juan! You’re heartless!" Jiang Wen gritted her teeth. "The person died at your company door; you can’t shirk the responsibility!"

Before Xia Mian could respond, the previous officer already sternly rebuked, "The facts are clear; she fell and died on her own, with no relation to Song Group. I suggest you take her back and handle the aftermath properly, giving the deceased some final dignity!"

Jiang Wen gritted her teeth, her eyes showing she wanted to tear Xia Mian apart. "Xia Mian, my grandmother’s death is because of you. Even as a ghost, she won’t let you off!"

With these words, Jiang Wen slammed the door and left.

The two officers took their notes and also left.

Once everyone was gone, Song Juan let out a long sigh, "These people cling like annoying stickers; the yin soul lingers on and on!"

Xia Mian sat beside her, slightly pursing her lips, "After being fed for so long, catching their own food is quite a challenge."

Song Juan was silent for a moment, then called the security and cleaning departments to clean up properly after Yu Hongmei and the others left.

Even after giving these instructions, Song Juan’s mood remained unsettled.

Yu Hongmei dying at the Song Group entrance was quite inauspicious when spread around.

Who knows if Song Group would be affected by it...

"Don’t dwell on it. The more people want to see us suffer, the better we have to live!" Xia Mian smiled, "We can’t let those with ulterior motives have what they want!"

Song Juan forced a slight smile, but her heart was far from settled.

With Xia Jianguo in prison and Yu Hongmei dying at Song Group’s entrance, she couldn’t help but feel something was off.

"Mom, you stay here for a bit. I’ll go check downstairs. Xia Yun and the others might not leave easily." Xia Mian squinted her eyes, a cold glint flashing in them.

Song Juan wanted to go with her, but her heart was filled with anxiety, so she simply responded, "Alright."

Before leaving, Xia Mian placed a talisman on Song Juan.

What happened today was bizarre; being careful wouldn’t hurt.

Just as Xia Mian expected, even though it was established that Yu Hongmei died on her own, Xia Yun and the others refused to leave quietly.

Not only did they not leave, but Yu Hongliang even brought a bunch of funeral wreaths and placed them at Song Group’s entrance, along with a banner that was stretched out at the gate.

At off-work hours, people were coming and going at the company entrance. Many, not knowing the truth, were misled by Yu Hongliang and others into thinking Song Group was exceptionally overbearing.

When Xia Mian returned to the scene, the crowd was almost entirely on Yu Hongliang and Xia Yun’s side, gossiping about Song Group’s so-called tyranny...

Xia Mian scanned the crowd slowly, finally fixing her gaze on Xia Yun and the others.

"It seems you all are determined not to stop until you hit rock bottom," Xia Mian gently pursed her thin lips, a gleam flashing in her eyes.

"Xia Mian, what do you want to do?" Jiang Wen jumped up, shouting, "We’re the victims here!"

Xia Mian ignored Jiang Wen’s outburst and moved her lips slightly.

A Buddhist sound flowed from her throat, and suddenly, Yu Hongmei, who was supposed to be dead, moved...

Xia Yun and the others were surrounding Xia Mian, shouting accusations, unaware of what was happening with Yu Hongmei until a bystander watching exclaimed, "She’s coming back to life!!!!"

With that scream, the spectators, who were just there for the spectacle, scattered in all directions like startled birds!

The entrance to Song Group suddenly became eerily silent.

Xia Yun turned her stiff neck to see her mother standing up, covered in blood!!!

The scene was so terrifying that Xia Yun felt a warmth between her legs, completely scared by her own mother...
