CHAPTER 139: CHAPTER 129: HE SAID YOU ARE A SCUMBAG

Reception room.

He Tu stood quietly aside. He didn’t know anything about this matter from start to finish.

For such a big company, there are many things to handle every day.

Every artist has a dedicated team responsible for them, and many matters don’t require his involvement.

But standing here, listening to Qiao Yuxian’s words, he still trembled inside.

Not only him, but the other three also felt a shudder in their hearts, and their hairs stood on end.

Especially Tao Sen, his legs trembled and shook.

They genuinely believed that her words weren’t just threats, but could truly cost them their lives.

"I didn’t, I didn’t." Tao Sen suddenly said urgently, "They made a mistake, it wasn’t me, it was my assistant, not me, not me."

"Then explain, how do you account for the money in your account?" Qiao Yuxian stared directly into his eyes and asked, "What about the large sums of unknown origin? Why are they in your account and not your assistant’s?"

Tao Sen was speechless.

Qiao Yuxian said, "Did you really think that laundering dirty money secretly into your account wouldn’t be discovered? You really have no limit when it comes to money. Do you know how many years you’ll be sentenced for the amount involved in your transactions?"

"President Xi, President Xi. I didn’t touch it, I really didn’t touch it. My urine test is negative, the police station has records." Tao Sen propped his hands on the conference table, looked at her and said, "I just, I just earned a price difference in the transaction, I didn’t touch it. As soon as it reached my hands, I transferred it out."

Bai Xian closed his eyes in despair.

Ji Yunshuang stood there without any reaction.

At this point, it’s all over.

No one can escape.

Tao Sen said, "I really didn’t touch it myself. This is not good stuff, I definitely wouldn’t touch it myself. Every batch of goods in the past went smoothly when it reached me. I have always been very cautious, I don’t know what went wrong this time, I really don’t know how it got caught. President Xi, President Xi. I was wrong, I really know I was wrong. I won’t do it again."

Qiao Yuxian furrowed her brow, her lips moved but she couldn’t speak.

Stunned to silence, enraged to silence.

She found it hard to believe how he dared to say these words.

Tao Sen was genuinely frightened, he couldn’t believe that after finally getting out, he was going to be sent back again, speaking with a quivering voice, "President Xi. Minister Bai has already resolved the matter, everything has been taken care of and erased, we’ve bribed the paparazzi too. This matter will not be leaked at all. Can you just pretend it never happened? Give me one chance, and I’ll work like a horse for the company. President Xi, give me a chance, another chance. Everyone makes mistakes, you can’t just destroy me completely because I made this mistake, I..."

Qiao Yuxian suddenly threw the water glass from the conference table.

Bang—a loud crash, the glass shattered and shards flew.

Ji Yunshuang screamed in fright, crouching down and covering her head: "Ah!"

Bai Xian and He Tu both shuddered in fear.

Tao Sen’s voice was also silenced.

Behind the partition, Lin Huai Shu also shivered in fear, spilling tea on his hand.

Gu Yanjing heard the noise and immediately stood up, walking out of the tea room.

Qiao Yuxian was pale with anger, her eyes reddened. Her voice was suppressed to the extreme, she looked at Tao Sen and said word by word, "Fine. You revive the police officers who sacrificed in the anti-drug operations, give them a chance to be reborn. Then I’ll pretend this never happened and give you a chance. How about it? Fair, isn’t it?"

Tao Sen looked into Qiao Yuxian’s eyes, feeling cold and stiff all over. After a moment, his hands left the table and he staggered back a step with his shoulders slumped.

Gu Yanjing came out of the tea room, his gaze directly landing on Qiao Yuxian.

He walked to her side, grabbed her wrist, and looked at her right hand.

She wasn’t hurt by the shards, but her fingertips were trembling slightly.

Gu Yanjing furrowed his brow and held her hand in his.

Feeling the warmth in his hand, Qiao Yuxian regained some composure and relaxed a bit. Her eyelashes quivered lightly, her voice softened: "He Tu, call the police. Arrest those who need to be arrested, sentence those who need to be sentenced, and dismiss those who need to be dismissed. Don’t let any involved personnel escape."

"Yes." He Tu responded.

"President Xi..." Bai Xian called her once, but when he met her gaze, he didn’t dare to say anything further.

"You’re an accomplice, you can’t escape either." Qiao Yuxian said softly, "Even if you’re not. I can’t use someone like you. I expect Xi Mei’s PR department to clear my artists of false accusations when they’re slandered, not to cover up their mistakes, and to have no limits in dragging others down to cover up their misconduct."
