Chapter 344: Chapter 344: He Felt That He Had Been Tainted

Shangguan Heng felt that his body still lacked strength.

This was only one aspect; mainly, he had been struck a heavy blow.

He stared fixedly at Xia Bowen and Xia Xindong, these two men actually didn’t communicate much, but he saw in their eyes the same hatred for him.

Shangguan Heng hadn’t expected things to turn out leaving him no room to maneuver.

His worst-case scenario was merely suffering some superficial wounds; after all, he was a man from Xiangjiang, not young anymore and quite able to take a beating, just a few hits was all, and they would be afraid of causing real trouble.

So let them curse, he didn’t care about that; if he did, today would not have come.

It turned out more or less as he had anticipated, Xia Bowen wanting to beat him up was expected, considering Xia Xindong was no longer locked up in the basement at that time, and there was also Song Yunuan, that strange youngest aunt, whom Xia Bowen wouldn’t dare provoke.

But not only were there beatings, kicks, and insults, they even took photos and recorded videos...

He felt he had been soiled, contaminated by those lowly bodyguards.

Right now, Shangguan Wenzhi was overwhelmed with shame and anger, which was an outcome he had not foreseen.

He looked at Shangguan Heng.

A glint of resentment flashed through his eyes.

His mother had died early; he had grown up like a wild weed, reaping no advantages, yet now he was implicated and photographed and recorded.

Such photos and videos, once seen by others, would be even more embarrassing than those of Xia Xindong.

He had a wife and children, who would all be unable to lift their heads because of this.

Damn old dog, getting what you deserved, but why should it fall on me?

The two bodyguards didn’t seem to care, they were just worried about being envied.

But that’s what being a bodyguard entails, maybe even dying for the boss.

These people all had their own agendas.

Shangguan Wenzhi cursed inwardly, but still, he had to support his father and lead him out.

Shangguan Heng stopped, not looking at anyone else, only fixing his eyes on Song Yunuan, he said, "I did what I said, what about you?"

Song Yunuan raised her eyebrows, "You did your part, and naturally, we did ours."

Shangguan Heng’s legs had been kicked several times, and he walked with a limp.

Hearing the commotion, the person standing by the window turned around.

Seeing Song Yunuan, Gu Huai’an knew that things must have gone as planned.

A smile unconsciously appeared in his eyes; he nodded to Xia Bowen and the others, but the setting wasn’t right for saying much, so he strode out of the hall with long steps, followed by his group.

Walking briskly, Gu Huai’an disappeared from Song Yunuan’s sight in no time.

Director Sang, at the behest of his superiors, bravely approached Shangguan Heng.

There had been a fight just now, hadn’t there?

Otherwise, why would Chairman Shangguan Heng look like this?

It was known that Xia Bowen was Shangguan Heng’s brother-in-law, supposed to be quite a close one.

Not sure about the other two, so better not comment.

Anyway, better pretend not to see the bruises on his face and his grim expression, Director Sang politely asked how to proceed next.

What else could be done?

Shangguan Heng might not be sure about the video camera, but he was certain about the photo camera.

What to arrange? He had to return to Xiangjiang immediately to get the tapes.

Besides that, what should he do?

The bitterness in his heart seemed to grow wildly like weeds, wishing he could kill these people right now.

He regretted having been too soft-hearted to spare Xia Xindong’s life back then.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be such trouble today.

Song Yunuan glanced at Shangguan Heng.

Curious about what has been recorded, but she knew that Xia Bowen and her eldest uncle would definitely not let her see it.

But she wasn’t interested in seeing it either.

Shangguan Heng glanced at Director Sang, and said coldly, "Didn’t your section leader say that the project was blacklisted? I still have many projects in hand, but it’s a pity, I don’t know if they’re on the blacklist; I dare not cooperate with you anymore."

If it were usual times, Chairman Shangguan Heng, with his frosty demeanor, would undoubtedly have an imposing presence.

But now, posing cool with a swollen face is just ridiculously funny.

Song Yunuan couldn’t help but snicker.

Shangguan Heng seemed to understand something and didn’t dare to scold Song Yunuan. He could only walk forward with a red face and clenched teeth.

Zhong Daqiao, seeing Shangguan Heng like this, was shocked even though it was expected.

But he had other things to worry about.

That rebellious son, can he really not be brought back?

Hiding behind a young girl, he really has no ambition at all.

Even thinking this, he dared not say it aloud.

Song Yunuan was at the back of the crowd, chatting merrily with Xia Xindong.

Zhong Tianci glared at Song Yunuan and the silent Second Young Master with a gloomy look.

When he saw Shangguan Heng and Shangguan Wenzhi, he felt a strange sense of balance.

But the embarrassment was definitely there.

He asked Zhong Daqiao in a low voice, "Daddy, do you think we can take that fool back today?"

Zhong Daqiao immediately deflated.

He told himself that there would be other days.

But at the same time, he felt it was too bizarre. How could this happen? In the past, he was the one who called the shots.

That rebellious son did nothing but spout crazy threats.

Shangguan Heng spoke with a sinister tone, "Are you just going to return empty-handed?"

Zhong Daqiao wouldn’t fall for it, "With you looking like that, how could I be in any better shape?"

Shangguan Heng wished he could blow up the building.

Without any pleasantries, Shangguan Heng and Zhong Daqiao left the municipal building with completely torn faces. Song Yunuan stood at the entrance and said to Xia Bowen, "Didn’t he ask how Shangguan Wan was?"

Xia Bowen frowned, "He didn’t ask."

Now, with things the way they were, would Shangguan Heng call Shangguan Wan back?

If things were like this and he still didn’t call his daughter back, then the reason behind it was somewhat intriguing.

Xia Bowen said, "It doesn’t matter, we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it. Little Nuan, you and your uncle head back to the venue. I’m going to get your fourth uncle to develop some photos."

After Xia Bowen left, Song Yunuan and the others were enthusiastically driven back to the trade fair by Director Sang.

When she got out of the car, Song Yunuan checked Zhong Shaoqing’s lower back. Was this man... carrying a weapon with him?

She said to Zhong Shaoqing, "Zhong Daqiao and Shangguan Heng have left. Your elder brother wouldn’t dare to trouble you on his own. You stay well in the venue these next few days, you’ll surely learn a lot. Who knows, maybe in the future our import-export company will rely entirely on you."

On hearing this, Zhong Shaoqing perked up immediately, nodding vigorously.

Xia Xindong glanced at him and said indifferently, "Before entering the venue, pack up your things properly."

Zhong Shaoqing clenched his fist, ready to go down fighting. Even if he couldn’t take them down with him, he wouldn’t let this father and son get off easily.

Who would have thought that he’d end up giving Zhong Laoda a beating?

It was truly satisfying.

He had stolen a fruit knife from the hotel’s kitchen; definitely something he couldn’t bring into the venue.

Song Yunuan had Adah and Acheng protect Zhong Shaoqing.

Adah and Acheng were more dedicated than ever.

With today’s advantageous conditions, neither the chairman nor the eldest son managed to take the Second Young Master away.

Now that they had their own company, he and Acheng were practically founding members.

And then there was more than six hundred thousand in their account.

Even if they did nothing for three years, they wouldn’t starve, and after three years, when the Second Young Master inherited his fortune, the sky would be the limit for them.

The more they thought about it, the happier they became.

Protecting the Second Young Master was like protecting their own future.

Adah and Acheng escorted Zhong Shaoqing to the hotel with utmost loyalty.

Adah sneakily returned the fruit knife.

Zhong Shaoqing also let out a sigh of relief.
