Chapter 452 Shi Menglu
The man in the lead, with his hands behind his back and his belly sticking out, looked at the crowd with an air of authority. "Who reported the crime? What happened?"
"Brother Wei!"
The woman in the red down jacket's eyes lit up when she saw the man in the lead, acting as if she knew him well.
Brother Wei was Yu Wei!
Many people turned pale with fright and retreated.
They couldn't afford to offend him; this was the boss of the patrol station.
Upon seeing the woman in the red down jacket, Yu Wei's authoritative expression instantly vanished. He scurried over to the woman in the red down jacket and greeted her warmly.
"Miss Shi!"
"Yu Wei, you're finally here. Please take care of this, someone is trying to scam me."
"Why didn't you tell me you were coming to Jiangzhou in advance? Otherwise, I would have driven a patrol car, and let's see who would dare to scam you!"
Yu Wei's smile was very solicitous. He looked less like the law enforcer of this city and more like a "servant of the citizens," albeit a servant to very specific people.
The woman in the red down jacket glanced disdainfully at Chen Xuan before saying to Yu Wei, "Brother Wei, I also came to the provincial capital by surprise. Recently, a popular cosmetic product appeared in the provincial capital and won a major award abroad. Many people predict that this cosmetic will become an international brand, and I want to seize this opportunity."
"So that's how it is."
Yu Wei nodded.
The woman in the red down jacket deliberately pointed at Chen Xuan and said, "Yu Wei, this guy, along with this mother and son, tried to scam me. Especially this man claims to be a doctor. You must investigate him thoroughly."
Chen Xuan's eyes widened as he listened.
It was clearly the woman in the red down jacket who had hit someone. He had come to help, and in essence, had assisted this woman. He never expected that this woman in the red down jacket would turn the tables.
How detestable!
"Someone dared to scam? Take them all away!"
Yu Wei glanced at Chen Xuan and the others and, without asking any questions, immediately gave the order.
Before he could finish speaking, a group of police officers who had followed him strode forward, surrounding Chen Xuan and the others.
The woman in the red down jacket looked at Chen Xuan and sneered, "Kid, weren't you very arrogant? Show me some more of that arrogance!"
Chen Xuan took a breath, pointed at the injured mother and son on the ground, and said to Yu Wei, "You're Yu Wei, right? The ambulance is here now, and her condition is quite serious. Let them go to the hospital first, and I'll go with you to the patrol station."
Yu Wei glanced at the injured woman's wound and said displeasedly, "Do I need you to tell me what to do?"
However, Yu Wei also saw that the woman was seriously injured and was worried about a fatality that could escalate. He also had to maintain his authority, so he still had his subordinates put the injured old woman into the ambulance.
Chen Xuan was then directly taken to the patrol station car by the police.
"Miss Shi, would you like to come with us to make a statement?" Yu Wei said with a smile.
The woman in the red down jacket waved her hand, "I need to go grab an endorsement contract now. We'll talk later."
"That's fine too." Yu Wei didn't dare to stop her and smiled.
After that, the woman in the red down jacket drove off in her Ferrari sports car.
If it were anyone else, they would have ridden in the patrol car back to the station. However, because this woman in the red down jacket was wealthy and influential, she was given preferential treatment, and her statement wasn't even taken.
Soon, the woman in the red down jacket drove into Huo's Cosmetics.
With a skillful drift, the Ferrari sports car stopped in front of the building, and the woman in the down jacket got out and walked into the building.
"Miss Shi, you've arrived so suddenly."
In the office, Huo Yuhao looked at Shi Menglu sitting on the sofa and was greatly impressed!
At this moment, Shi Menglu had taken off her mask. Her delicate features, her flawless skin, and her long hair cascaded casually over her shoulders.
Although she was wearing a red down jacket, her curvaceous figure was still faintly visible, making one's imagination run wild.
A superstar was indeed a superstar!
Shi Menglu was very direct, "Mr. Huo, I'm here today to sign an endorsement contract with your Huo's Cosmetics. After signing the contract, I have to go to the film set. Please prepare the contract quickly."
Huo Yuhao was excited but still said, "Miss Shi, please wait a moment. I'll call our boss to get approval."
In the past, Huo's Cosmetics was unknown, and they could only take advantage of Shi Menglu's visit to the provincial capital to shoot an advertisement. But now, with Huo's Cosmetics winning international awards, it had become a sought-after commodity.
When Chen Xuan was not in the provincial capital, work matters could be handled without mention. However, now that Chen Xuan was in the provincial capital, such matters needed to be reported.
"Okay!"
Shi Menglu nodded impatiently.
Huo Yuhao called Chen Xuan.
However, Chen Xuan's phone could not be reached.
Shi Menglu was getting impatient and urged, "Are you done yet?"
"Miss Shi, our CEO's phone is unreachable. I'm afraid you'll have to wait a bit longer."
Huo Yuhao reluctantly turned off his phone.
He was also wondering why Chen Xuan's phone was switched off at this time.
Of course, it was unreachable because Chen Xuan had gone to the patrol station.
"Still waiting?"
Shi Menglu was very displeased. "Is your Huo's Cosmetics still capable or not? Delaying me for one minute, do you know how much money that is?"
Huo Yuhao apologized profusely, "Miss Shi, I'm truly sorry, truly sorry."
"Hmph!"
Shi Menglu let out a delicate snort.
At the same time, Chen Xuan walked out of the patrol station with a grim expression. "If I hadn't known someone, these dogs would have painted black white! Too detestable!"
Just now, Chen Xuan had been taken to the patrol station. The police, without any regard for right or wrong, had pressured Chen Xuan to admit he was scamming them. There was surveillance at the intersection and witnesses, but the police simply didn't listen or look, acting like a group of deaf-mutes.
Under such ignorance, Chen Xuan had no choice but to call Master Bai, and soon Master Bai found someone to get Chen Xuan out.
If he had been an ordinary person, he might have ended up in jail for life.
Speaking of which, he had to blame that woman, she was too lawless!
Chen Xuan took a breath and took out his phone to check the time. To his surprise, he saw that Huo Yuhao had made countless missed calls on his phone.
His gaze sharpened, and he was about to call Huo Yuhao back, but at that moment, Huo Yuhao's call came through again. Chen Xuan answered immediately.
"Mr. Chen, I finally got through to your phone." Huo Yuhao was completely relieved.
"Did something happen?" Chen Xuan frowned.
"Nothing has happened, it's just that the superstar Shi Menglu has come to Huo's Cosmetics and wants to sign an endorsement contract with us. Would you like to come and take a look?" Huo Yuhao said with a smile.
"You can sign the contract."
As soon as Chen Xuan finished speaking, he hesitated and amended, "Never mind, I'll go over."
After all, he was the largest shareholder of Huo's Cosmetics, and he couldn't always be an absentee landlord.
"It's truly wonderful that Mr. Chen can come. Then I'll wait for you in the office!"
With that, Huo Yuhao happily hung up the phone.
Chen Xuan had only heard of Shi Menglu. If he met her later and didn't recognize her, it would be quite awkward.
Chen Xuan took out his phone and searched for photos of Shi Menglu.
Upon seeing Shi Menglu's photo online, Chen Xuan's eyes widened instantly.
Although the woman in the red down jacket had been wearing a mask earlier, Chen Xuan could still recognize at a glance that this Shi Menglu was the woman in the red down jacket from earlier!
Recalling the conversation between Yu Wei from the patrol station and the woman in the red down jacket, Chen Xuan became even more certain that this Shi Menglu was the woman in the red down jacket from earlier.
Such an ill-mannered person was worthy of endorsing Huo's Cosmetics?
