Chapter 786: Chapter 786: Courtesy Before Force

"Aunt Chen!" Yang Rui’s heart felt as if it had been pierced by a sword, her eyes split with rage.

Dean Chen was the old dean’s good friend and had raised the orphans of Yang Rui’s generation in the welfare home alongside him.

Besides the old dean, Dean Chen was the person Yang Rui held dearest.

The younger brothers and sisters in the welfare home also saw her as family, which was why she couldn’t bear to abandon these children.

And now, Dean Chen and the children were all buried beneath the rubble of the collapsed walls, fueling her fury to the skies!

Seeing the group of workers continuing to demolish the welfare home with their tools, indifferent to Dean Chen and the children trapped under the wall, Yang Rui could no longer restrain herself, "Die, all of you!"

Swish swish swish...

In less than ten seconds, Yang Rui had taken down the group of workers, and blood sprayed wildly!

Boom boom boom...

An excavator swung its arm, the shovel maliciously smashing down toward Yang Rui’s head!

"Die!" Yang Rui roared lowly, stepping back as she flung the dagger from her hand.

Thump!

The dagger pierced straight through the excavator driver’s heart, killing him instantly!

......

Just after Yang Yu got off the plane, he received a call from Long Jiutian, "Yang Yu, Baili Qin has gone on a killing spree in Yunkun City and has been arrested. You handle the situation yourself!"

"How is that possible?" Yang Yu was baffled at once, "She has never been bloodthirsty. She even donates money to the welfare home to support orphans. How could she go on a killing spree?"

"Sigh, the thing is, it’s not really her fault..." Long Jiutian had already investigated the incident and proceeded to explain it to Yang Yu.

After hearing the details, Yang Yu was also enraged, "These developers are beasts!"

"But no matter what, she indeed went too far," said Long Jiutian. "She disabled dozens of people’s limbs and even killed one excavator driver."

Yang Yu said, "In that situation, wouldn’t killing the excavator driver count as legitimate self-defense?"

Long Jiutian sighed helplessly, "That’s true in principle, but she is no ordinary person. The victims’ families are making a huge fuss, and if you don’t intervene soon with favorable evidence, she’s likely to face life imprisonment."

"Alright, I understand, thank you Captain Long," said Yang Yu. "I’ll go there with my lawyer and sort this out. I won’t let her suffer!"

Yang Yu immediately headed for Yunkun City with Ouyang Xue while also instructing Huang Shiyin to utilize all available resources to thoroughly investigate the matter and to use the Fu Family’s influence in the media to reclaim the narrative.

The injured victims’ families had stirred up the issue online, accusing Yang Rui of being a thug hired by the welfare home, disregarding the spirit of the contract, reneging on agreements, resisting demolition, and committing assault in public.

They also posted pitiful photos of the injured and even shared the corpse photo of the excavator driver who was killed.

Suddenly, online public opinion unanimously condemned Yang Rui, calling her a heartless and deranged murderer.

However, the power of Huang Shiyin and the Fu Family was not to be underestimated. After Huang Shiyin had found many detailed pieces of evidence, they began to strike back.

She first accused Tian Ge Real Estate Company of using despicable means to get the dean’s signature, then stealing the property deed, and finally resorting to forced demolition.

Then she released photos of the welfare home being demolished, the children buried in the rubble, and pictures of them receiving treatment at the hospital; one little girl had a concussion and remained unconscious, and a little boy had a broken leg with a risk of amputation at any moment.

As soon as these photos were released, the direction of public opinion online changed in an instant.

"How can they treat children like this?"

"That woman is protecting those children!"

"Those who had their limbs disabled are inhuman, they got what they deserved!"

Seeing the tide of online opinion swiftly turn, Huang Shiyin finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Boss, I’ve done everything I could, now it’s up to you and Lawyer Ouyang."

Yunkun City, Chairman’s office of Tian Ge Real Estate Company.

"What’s going on? Who did this?" A middle-aged man, unable to contain his anger, roared loudly.

This middle-aged man was none other than the owner of the company, He Youpeng.

His secretary was also very frustrated, cautiously saying, "Boss, our people are looking into it, we should be able to find out who did it soon."

"Useless! To think we can’t even take down an orphanage without any background. What use are you lot to me!" He Youpeng was fuming, continuing to curse.

The situation was originally his fault, and after it escalated, he spared no effort in shifting the blame to Yang Rui and the orphanage to divert public attention.

Unexpectedly, someone was helping Yang Rui and the orphanage by exposing his evil deeds.

Luckily, they didn’t have direct evidence, otherwise, he would have been scolded to death.

If the situation were to turn around, he would have to be responsible for all those disabled workers, which could mean compensations amounting to millions, even tens of millions!

Moreover, using illegal methods for the demolition that led to casualties meant that, even if his project wasn’t scrapped, it couldn’t continue for now.

In these years of real estate downturn, he had hoped to turn the tables with this project, but if it were delayed, his real estate company could also go bankrupt.

So, no matter what, he couldn’t let this issue slip out of his control!

"I’ll go see what’s happening," the female secretary quickly made herself scarce but soon turned back around, "Boss, someone’s here to see you."

Yang Yu came in with Ouyang Xue, and He Youpeng’s brow furrowed slightly, "Who are you?"

Yang Yu revealed his identity directly, "My name is Yang Yu, Chairman of Tianhai International Business Alliance."

"You’re Yang Yu?" He Youpeng was even more surprised, "May I know what brings the esteemed Chairman Yang to our remote southwestern region?"

"Baili Qin is my subordinate," Yang Yu said calmly, "I can pay for the compensation of those men of yours. I only have one condition, let her come out safely."

"What? That woman is your subordinate?" He Youpeng finally understood who was turning the tide and coldly said, "Mr. Yang, quite the tactic!"

"It was a necessary action," said Yang Yu, "Mr. Lan, we’re all businessmen here, out to make money. What do you think of my proposal?"

"That compensation was yours to pay in the first place," He Youpeng’s expression was icy, "And since Baili Qin committed murder in public, with undeniable evidence, out of respect for Chairman Yang, I can convince the murdered driver’s family to accept your compensation and settle, avoiding the death penalty."

"As for the rest, Chairman Yang, forgive me, but my hands are tied."

"Courtesy before force, I’ve already shown courtesy," Yang Yu smiled faintly with a cold light in his smile, "Since that’s your attitude, there’s no need for further civility."

He Youpeng scoffed coldly, "Heh, what do you intend to do?"

Yang Yu spoke slowly, "I will not only ensure Baili Qin is released without charges, but I will also ensure that your Tian Ge Company is completely erased."
