Chapter 973 Apologies in Order
"What business do you have to report?"
Hearing this, Wang Zhonghua was not angry and spoke coldly.
Gu Jiahao pointed at Su Yunxi and Bai Ye and said, "Her fiancé took our relatives hostage as test subjects, and she must have been involved. Also, these people here want to kill people!"
"Shut up, who told you these things?"
Wang Zhonghua's eyes shot out a cold gleam, like a sharp sword, as if it could kill.
Gu Jiahao's face turned pale, and he stammered, "It's none of your business who told me. I'm telling you, I'm going to report this to the authorities. If you dare to threaten me, I'll report you too!"
"Shut up!"
Yin Tianlu, the leader of the Martial Alliance, couldn't stand it anymore and pointed at Wang Zhonghua, saying, "This is Wang Zhonghua, the Provincial Governor of our Jiangnan Province!"
Provincial Governor Wang Zhonghua?
Gu Jiahao was stunned.
"You... you are really... the Provincial Governor..."
Gu Jiahao stared at Wang Zhonghua's face for a few moments, and after a while, his face turned green as he stammered.
No wonder he found this man familiar, so he was actually Provincial Governor Wang!
He often saw Provincial Governor Wang on the news channels.
"Aren't you going to report it? Go ahead and report it!" Yin Tianlu sneered a few times.
Gu Jiahao was sweating profusely, his throat dry, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.
He wanted to report it, but how could he dare to report it to Provincial Governor Wang? He felt guilty.
"To be frank with all of you, the disappearance of your relatives has been investigated and it was not done by Chen Xuan, the son-in-law of the Su family in the provincial capital. It was someone else. As for who it was, it involves important case information, and we cannot disclose it truthfully for the time being!"
Provincial Governor Wang scanned the crowd and said in a deep voice, "Furthermore, Chen Xuan, the son-in-law of the Su family in the provincial capital, is not only not the murderer but also a hero who investigated the mutant laboratory. It can be said that Chen Xuan played an important role in cracking this case."
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings fell into silence!
Bai Ye and Su Yunxi's eyes widened instantly. Chen Xuan's name had been cleared of suspicion?!
"Is that true?" someone couldn't help but ask.
Yin Tianlu said coldly, "Would a provincial governor lie?"
"Yes, Provincial Governor Wang is the most powerful man in Jiangnan Province, how could he lie!"
"It seems we misunderstood him this time!"
"He's not a bad person who harms others, but a great hero!"
Everyone looked embarrassed, their hearts filled with mixed feelings.
"We apologize, Miss Su. We really didn't know. If we had known, we would never have bothered you!"
"Miss Su, you have found a good husband. We wronged him. Please thank Mr. Chen on our behalf later!"
The next moment, the families of the missing persons began to queue up to apologize to Su Yunxi.
Su Yunxi did not make things difficult for these people. Their relatives had been persecuted, and their irrational behavior was understandable, especially since nothing major had happened.
"So that's how it is, haha, it was all a misunderstanding! If that's the case, then that's great!"
Gu Jiahao felt guilty and said this, then turned and left in a hurry.
He never expected that even Provincial Governor Wang would come forward to testify, so his act would be ruined.
But at this moment, Yin Tianlu suddenly reached out and stopped Gu Jiahao: "Stop!"
"Is there anything else?"
Gu Jiahao was struck by lightning and spoke in a low voice.
"According to our investigation, you don't seem to have any relatives or friends who went missing, do you?"
Yin Tianlu narrowed his eyes and stared at Gu Jiahao.
His memory was astonishing, and he remembered the information of all the missing persons. He did not recall any missing family member named Gu. In fact, there wasn't even anyone surnamed Gu.
"I..." Gu Jiahao's face instantly turned ashen.
"I suspect you were instigated by someone to incite others to engage in acts harmful to society. You will come back with us for an investigation!"
Yin Tianlu waved his hand, and two people immediately rushed over and apprehended Gu Jiahao.
"You've misunderstood. I really didn't instigate them. Everyone did it willingly!" Gu Jiahao tried desperately to explain.
But before he could finish speaking, he exposed himself.
Upon hearing this, the people around immediately focused their attention and pointed at Gu Jiahao, saying, "Report to the authorities, the reason we gathered here to cause trouble for the Su family in the provincial capital was because he found us and told us that the son-in-law of the Su family in the provincial capital had kidnapped our relatives."
They couldn't let the hero's relatives be wronged!
At this, Gu Jiahao dropped his arms and completely stopped struggling.
It was over, this time he had messed up big time!
According to his plan, he was going to make a fortune, but he ended up sending himself to jail!
"Do you have anything else to say?"
"I have nothing to say..."
"Take him away!"
Thus, Gu Jiahao was taken away by the people from the Martial Alliance!
"Thank you all!" Su Yunxi expressed her gratitude to everyone.
"You're welcome, we wronged you just now!" Everyone thanked her again and then left.
Su Yunxi and Bai Ye turned and walked towards the villa, but at this moment, Wang Zhonghua quickly stepped forward and said with a smile, "Miss Su, please wait!"
"May I know what else Provincial Governor Wang needs?"
Su Yunxi's expression was blank.
Wang Zhonghua smiled and said, "I wonder if Mr. Chen will be back? I am here to apologize to Mr. Chen! Also, I am prepared to grant the Su family in the provincial capital a ten-year tax reduction, and I am also prepared to allocate three commercial land parcels to the Su family in the provincial capital, all of which are prime locations."
Wang Zhonghua had come today to lead the provincial officials to apologize to Chen Xuan.
Yin Tianlu was also looking forward to it, watching Chen Xuan eagerly. He also wanted to meet Chen Xuan and discuss important matters with him.
Bai Ye's eyes widened instantly as he looked at Wang Zhonghua and the important figures from the provincial capital, his heart filled with shock.
So many important figures lining up to apologize to Chen Xuan?
And offering so much compensation?
Good heavens, how much face would that be!
But when he thought of the injustice Chen Xuan had suffered, Bai Ye suddenly felt that such an apology was nothing; it was deserved!
Su Yunxi shook her head and said, "Chen Xuan is not back yet. Has he left the Martial Alliance's prison?"
"He left two hours ago."
Wang Zhonghua thought that Chen Xuan did not want to see him and said with a bitter smile, "Miss Su, I know I was really wrong this time, but at the time the evidence was conclusive, and I had no choice. After all, I had to give an explanation to the families of the 148 missing lives."
Su Yunxi's expression was blank as she said, "Provincial Governor Wang, I know you have your difficulties, but Chen Xuan really hasn't returned yet."
"Oh?"
Wang Zhonghua blinked his eyes, pondered for a moment, and mumbled, "It seems Mr. Chen has gone on business with the God of War..."
"What God of War?"
Su Yunxi glanced at Wang Zhonghua.
Wang Zhonghua said, "Miss Su, this is a taboo. If you want to know, you can ask Mr. Chen later."
"Alright."
Su Yunxi shrugged and did not ask further.
"Since that is the case, Miss Su, I will take my leave now!" Seeing that Chen Xuan was not present, Wang Zhonghua had no choice but to give up and led his men away.
Everyone left, except for Yin Tianlu, the leader of the Martial Alliance, who remained, hesitating and wanting to speak but stopping.
"Even the Provincial Governor has left, why hasn't Alliance Leader Yin left?"
Bai Ye stared at Yin Tianlu and sneered a few times.
Yin Tianlu gritted his teeth and said, "Bai Ye, as you can see, the matter has been cleared up and Mr. Chen has been released. When do you think the experts from your White Dragon Chamber of Commerce will be available to fight against the experts from Chuan Province."
"The experts from our White Dragon Chamber of Commerce are unwell. Let's talk about it in a few days!"
Bai Ye immediately waved his hand, finding an excuse to fob him off.
Without Chen Xuan's order, he would not send anyone out!
"This..."
Yin Tianlu, the leader of the Martial Alliance, felt like crying but had no tears.
How powerful he was back then, and now, he was begging everyone, but they refused to help. If this continued, he would have to resign on his own without waiting for orders from above.
After all, even if he was thick-skinned, he couldn't withstand the humiliation from the people of Jiangnan Province!
