Chapter 96: Chapter 96 Utter Disappointment

Lin Hongzhuang drove the car, accompanying Xia Yanbing to search for places where Xia Yujiang might have gone.

But Xia Yujiang is no pushover; having dared to mess with the company’s accounts, he was well-prepared to hide, so how could they find him?

At a little past one in the morning, Lin Hongzhuang and Xia Yanbing dragged their exhausted bodies back home.

Qin Yi had already returned and came out of the room upon hearing the noise.

Xia Yanbing’s face was as pale as paper, and her whole demeanor was in a daze, making Qin Yi feel sorry for her and almost unable to resist telling her where Xia Yujiang was.

Xia Yujiang had been under Zhang Wenhao’s surveillance all along.

However, to make Xia Yanbing see reality clearly, he held back.

The Xia Family’s greediness was boundless, and Xia Yanbing was too soft-hearted towards her family. If this continued, it would eventually lead to big trouble.

Qin Yi silently poured two glasses of water and placed them in front of the two.

"Did you find him?"

Lin Hongzhuang was surprised, "You know about it too?"

Qin Yi nodded slightly. When he returned in the afternoon, Dong Jinsu had scolded him for half the day, crying and wailing.

Lin Hongzhuang gently shook her head; at this moment, she didn’t have the mind to blame Qin Yi for meddling.

"Have you two eaten? I saved some food for you."

Xia Yanbing’s voice was hoarse as she asked, "Where’s Mom?"

"She went to sleep," Qin Yi replied.

Xia Yanbing laughed bitterly. How could anyone sleep at a time like this?

"You two should eat something and get a good night’s sleep. Don’t wear yourselves out."

Xia Yanbing weakly shook her head. Could she eat at a time like this?

Qin Yi looked at Lin Hongzhuang. In this house, Lin Hongzhuang’s words carried more weight than his own.

Lin Hongzhuang understood his intention and managed to persuade Xia Yanbing to eat something.

...

The next day.

Huayu District.

This is a mid-range community with decent facilities and greenery.

A woman in her thirties, heavily made-up, flamboyantly dressed, walked out of the community.

In a blind spot of the surveillance cameras, a black business car was quietly parked there.

As the woman walked by the black business car, the door suddenly opened, and a powerful hand dragged the woman into the car.

The whole process took less than ten seconds, and the car sped away with a roar.

Hua!

The black hood covering the woman’s head was removed, and her mouth was sealed with strong tape, looking in panic at the group of burly men in front of her.

It was a spacious and luxurious room, but it didn’t reveal where it was.

A tall young man was sitting on the sofa opposite.

"I allow you to speak, but don’t scream, or I’ll have them take turns with you, understand?"

The woman trembled all over; she had never seen such a scene before, and her face turned pale with fright, nodding hurriedly.

The young man waved his hand, and a burly man in black stepped forward to tear the strong tape from her mouth.

"Zhu Xiangxiang, originally Zhu Guizhi, living in Huayuan County, with farmer parents, and a brother still in college. Am I right?" the young man spoke slowly.

Zhu Xiangxiang shivered in fear, her makeup falling off her face. These were things she had never told anyone, so how did this person know?

"You used to be a bar hostess, now you’re Xia Yujiang’s mistress, but you used the money Xia Yujiang gave you to keep a little lover."

Zhu Xiangxiang trembled all over, looking at the young man in horror.

"Don’t be afraid, we just need you to do a favor. Once it’s done, we’ll give you some money and send you away from Yinfeng City, ensuring no one can find you."

"That idiot Xia Yujiang, even picking a mistress who cuckolds him. And he doesn’t even know your real name."

Zhu Xiangxiang trembled as she asked, "What do you want me to do?"

The young man smirked sinisterly, saying a few words lightly.

"Do you know what to do? If you do this well, you’ll live. If not, you and your family will die, understand?"

Zhu Xiangxiang nodded in horror.

The young man waved his hand, signaling for someone to take Zhu Xiangxiang out.

Subsequently, the young man pulled out his phone and dialed a number, respectfully saying, "Mr. Qin, it’s done!"

...

Meanwhile, in the Xia Group’s conference room.

"Xiaobing, this is your father’s private action, but it harms the company’s interests. You need to show some stance," Xia Yuhai said with a blank expression.

Xia Yanbing painfully rubbed her temples, "Uncle Fang Xi, I will definitely find my dad and get the money back."

"It’s just that you might find the person, but the money might be gone," Xia Yuhai said coldly.

"Call the police!" Shen Zhengwen said lightly.

Xia Yanbing’s face changed dramatically, turning even paler, and she panicked, "Director Shen, please, give me some more time, I can find my dad and make him return the money. Please don’t call the police yet, okay?"

"President Xia, I entrusted you with the money out of trust, but your father took it without authorization. You must bear responsibility for this matter too."

Xia Yanbing nodded slightly. Not only did she have responsibility, but also bore most of it.

Xia Yuhai said coldly, "Xiaobing, I know your father; I’m afraid the money has already gone into the stock market, and hoping to get it back is slim."

Shen Zhengwen looked at him and said, "Director Xia, what do you mean?"

"What I mean is clear; the money surely can’t be retrieved. The construction site has already started, and it needs funds now. How long can we hold on without money? I say... sell the company’s land, and we can all get some money."

Shen Zhengwen laughed, "Excuse me, what does that piece of land have to do with you?"

"That piece of land, although Xiaobing somehow got it back for free, is still company property. As a shareholder, I naturally have a part," Xia Yuhai said with entitlement.

Xia Yanbing looked at Xia Yuhai in disbelief. At this moment, he wasn’t thinking of helping but rather selling the land to divide the money?

Shen Zhengwen sneered, "President Xia might be mistaken, even if the land is sold, by law, it should first cover my losses. Don’t forget, I’ve invested 260 million in the company, and I’m the major shareholder with priority rights."

"Director Shen is right, but what about my share? Since the money to Director Shen is legally mandated first, I have nothing to say. But my share, Xiaobing, you have to make up for it."

Xia Yanbing looked at Xia Yujiang’s ugly, greedy face, utterly disappointed.

"Uncle, how can there be whole eggs under a collapsed nest? The land absolutely cannot be sold; selling it would be the company’s doom. The priority now is to find my dad and get the money back."

"Have you found him after searching for so long? Since he dared to move the company’s money, how could he let you find him?" Xia Yuhai stood up, sneering, "Don’t say I’m being unsympathetic as an uncle, write me an IOU first. Regardless of the company’s future, I can’t bear a cent of loss."

Xia Yanbing looked at Xia Yuhai sorrowfully; this was her own uncle, actually making such shameless demands at this time.
