Chapter 549: 533 Fury from Big Boss Yue

Zhou Jue said, "The Information Department is adjusting the surveillance cameras, but with so many people involved, even if we can see who did it, it’s difficult to track them once they leave the site."

Yan Yueqing shook her head, "Have we filed a report?"

"We’ve reported it already."

"Tell the person handling the case that we must pursue this to the end. We won’t rest until the perpetrator is caught!"

Yan Yueqing’s tone was quite assertive, and even Zhou Jue, who was used to dealing with important figures, felt intimidated by her attitude.

President Yue, would she go to such lengths for an artist who had just signed with the company and hadn’t yet achieved anything?

She’s so COOL!

Zhou Jue’s expression brightened, "Don’t worry, President Yue, I have some connections in Chunyue City. I will take care of it and ensure they catch the person as soon as possible."

Only then did Yan Yueqing nod and go in to see Xi Hongxia.

Struck in the eye, the doctor carefully applied medicine and bandaged her, wrapping it tightly.

Seeing her boss enter, Xi Hongxia optimistically joked, "Ah, now you get to see my cyclops side, huh?"

Yan Yueqing curved the corners of her lips, "You seem to be in good spirits."

Xi Hongxia spread her hands, "The doctor said there’s no nerve damage; a few days of rest and I’ll be fine. It’s a pity... the movie is about to start shooting, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to appear on camera like this..."

"No worries, your scenes are few and precious. It’s not too late to shoot them once you’re healed," Yan Yueqing said. "After all, both the production and the investment come from me. Unless the boss speaks, they won’t think of replacing you lightly."

Xi Hongxia’s remaining eye lit up, moved, "President Yue, you’re so good to me... I really can’t thank you enough."

"Stay put in the company, make money for Xingyue. If you become a top celebrity, don’t break the contract easily—that would be the best way to repay me."

Xi Hongxia was somewhat dazed...

Could there really come a day when that would happen for her?

Her lashes lowered, concealing part of her thoughts.

Yan Yueqing asked with concern, "What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?"

Xi Hongxia looked up, "No, it’s not that... President Yue, actually, the person who attacked me today... I know him."

"You know him?" It was Yan Yueqing’s turn to be surprised.

"Yes, he’s Chen Wei’s cousin, Duan Ye."

Chen Wei, that scumbag who, along with the Sun family, pursued Xi Hongxia and when he couldn’t get her, spread rumors about her?!

Great, it’s bad enough to be a scumbag oneself, but to have relatives who are just as trashy?

Yan Yueqing took a deep breath, "Rest assured, I will definitely seek justice for you in this matter."

Xi Hongxia shook her head, "President Yue, I appreciate your intentions, but Duan Ye’s father is not only powerful in Chunyue City but also a close aide to a certain big shot in the capital. They are in politics; it’s different from us. If we confront them directly... I worry that you might suffer a loss."

No matter how you look at it, President Yue seems very wealthy right now.

But being wealthy is completely different from having power.

How many people toil their whole lives to make money, only to be suppressed by the sheer weight of political authority and have to spend money to resolve disasters?

Xi Hongxia knew how formidable President Yue was, but when it comes to a direct confrontation between businessmen and politicians, the former will surely be at a disadvantage.

Not to mention anything else, if they keep sending various inspections to the company, who can ensure to be safe and sound forever? As soon as a problem is found, it could lead to turmoil.

That was why Xi Hongxia always chose to date heirs of wealth in the past.

Beauty combined with anything is a winning card, but standing alone is sure defeat.

She had nothing, only relying on her boyfriend’s status for protection.

Others said she was climbing up the ladder, getting boyfriends of ever higher status.

Do they not see?

She just didn’t want to become a plaything for those with power...

Now that someone was willing to protect her, and wanted to protect her, Xi Hongxia was really moved. But the thought of offending the big shots just for her own sake made her uneasy for the rest of her life.

Yan Yueqing understood what she meant, "Do you know which big shot the Duan family relies on?"

"Not very clear." Xi Hongxia shook her head, "The biggest backer of the Duan family, why would he easily tell others? I only know it’s someone from the capital, who has been in politics for many years and has considerable sway in the central regions."

"Alright, I understand." Yan Yueqing advised, "First take good care of yourself and don’t think too much, I will arrange for someone to investigate this."

"Thank you, President Yue."

After leaving the hospital room, Yan Yueqing made a phone call to Zhou Jue, who sounded much more serious as soon as he heard.

"Did Hongxia say it was Duan Ye?"

"What’s the deal with the Duan family, do you know?"

Zhou Jue indeed knew a bit, "His father is the director of an xx bureau and has always been a smiling tiger in Chunyue City. As for the backer behind him, naturally, it’s Director Wang from the capital, that person has some power, but what’s more important is... Director Wang is Minister Mu’s confidant."

"Minister Mu? Which Mu?"

"The Mu of Mu Guiying," Zhou Jue said, "Minister Mu is a key member of the central hub, I heard that this big shot rarely appears in public, always operating behind the scenes, but he has an extensive network. Those of us in commerce, if we offend those in politics, naturally there won’t be any good outcomes."

Yan Yueqing felt reassured, "Then, see if you can get me some information on Minister Mu and Director Wang."

"Director Wang’s is easy, but Minister Mu’s is difficult. I can’t boast that I’ll definitely get it, but I’ll do my best."

That night, Yan Yueqing discussed this matter over the phone with Jun Lii.

Jun Lii said, "There are many Ministers with the surname Mu in the capital, which one is the Duan family’s patron? Without a scope for investigation, it might be difficult to target."

Yan Yueqing sighed, "Then let’s wait for the materials on Director Wang to come over, we will certainly find a clue."

Jun Lii chuckled softly, his tone gentle as if he were patting his lover’s shoulder through the air, "No rush, I’ll also have Uncle Mu help you investigate."

"Great~" Yan Yueqing missed her son, "How’s Yan Bao?"

"He’s upstairs, says he’s preparing some surprise and won’t even let me in the room."

"I’ll come back once I finish with this matter, I miss Yan Bao so much~"

Jun Lii asked nonchalantly, "And what about me?"

"Miss you too~ I wonder how my darling is doing with his studies, it’s been almost a month, right?"

"Hmm, when the time comes, we will pick up Xiao Wang together."

"Okay~"

She perked up a bit at the mention of this.

The fax machine in the living room began beeping a few times.

Mu Tianxing, who was taking Mu Nian out of the room, said, "Yueqing, there’s a document for you."

Upon hearing this, Mu Nian dashed over to get it.

"Hey Niannian, you can’t touch your godmother’s documents!!"

Yan Yueqing walked over with a smile, "It’s okay, it’s not anything confidential."

After taking the documents from his hands, she patted Mu Nian’s soft hair, "Nianbao is really clever, already able to help godmother with documents!"

Mu Nian responded with a sweet smile.

Zhou Jue was efficient, and he quickly uncovered relevant information about Director Wang. Yan Yueqing skimmed through it but didn’t come up with any leads.

However, Mu Nian suddenly said, "Uncle, dislike."

Yan Yueqing turned her head, "What’s wrong?"

Mu Nian stared at the photo of Director Wang in her hands, a rare look of distaste emerging in his eyes, "He always, comes to find Dad, dislike."

Yan Yueqing: Hmm?!!!!!!!!
