Chapter 383 An Even Greater Crime
Inside the Yang family mansion, Yang Wei Gang was filled with rage and anxiety.
Yang Long approached Yang Wei Gang and said, "Dad, what should we do now? Uncle has really been arrested, and we can't get any specific information."
Yang Wei Gang looked up at Yang Long and suddenly slapped him hard across the face.
Yang Long was stunned.
His father had always doted on him, even spoiled him, yet today he had slapped him in front of so many people.
Yang Long clutched his face, staring at his father in disbelief.
Yang Wei Gang roared furiously, "You idiot! If your uncle loses his official position because of you this time, you'll be the sinner of the Yang family!"
Yang Long sprang up and shouted, "What does it have to do with me? Uncle volunteered! He said he could handle Yangyangyang Company."
"Besides, who could have imagined that the newly appointed deputy director would be so reckless? He arrested uncle without asking any questions the moment he arrived."
Yang Wei Gang, enraged, got up and kicked Yang Long in the stomach. He pointed at Yang Long and said, "Why did your uncle do this? It's all because of you! It's because he dotes on you!"
"Let me tell you, the reason our Yang family has developed so rapidly in recent years, and become one of the top three great families in Qingzhou City, is thanks to your uncle's considerable efforts."
"If he truly loses his position, our Yang family's future development will be affected."
Hearing this, Yang Long lowered his head, daring not to say another word.
Seeing Yang Long being beaten, Liu Xin rushed over to help him. She angrily said to Yang Wei Gang, "Dad, you can scold Brother Long, but why do you have to get physical? What if you injure him?"
"Besides, Brother Long and I didn't ask uncle to do that. It was uncle who insisted. He said it was no problem at all and he wanted to do it himself."
"Moreover, Brother Long and I also paid a million. Why are you pushing all the responsibility onto Brother Long?" Liu Xin complained indignantly.
Yang Wei Gang pointed at Liu Xin upon hearing this.
Yang Long, impatient, pushed Liu Xin's shoulder aside. He glared at Liu Xin angrily and said, "Get lost! This has nothing to do with you. Let me tell you, if uncle's position is really affected this time, you'll also be responsible."
"If he hadn't seen us arguing, would he have been so desperate to set a trap to deal with Yangyangyang Company?"
Liu Xin stomped her feet in anger and cursed Yang Long, "You ungrateful wretch! I'm trying to defend you, and now you're scolding me."
"Fine, fine! You all treat me like an outsider. All the bad things are done by me, this outsider. Fine, I'm going back, I'm going back to my maiden home."
Liu Xin said, turned around angrily, and strode away. She hailed a taxi and headed straight to the old mansion of the Liu family.
On the way, the more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt. When she was married to Chen Yang, all the mistakes were Chen Yang's. But now, with Yang Long, it seemed like all the mistakes were hers.
Inside the Yang family mansion.
Yang Long turned away impatiently, completely ignoring Liu Xin. He asked Yang Wei Gang, "What should we do now?"
Yang Wei Gang frowned and said, "At this time, we must act decisively and be willing to spend money."
"How about this, quickly prepare a credit card with a limit of five million, and we'll go find Meng Qing Xue. Ask her to be lenient and release your uncle as soon as possible."
In the office.
Meng Qing Xue yawned, bored, while writing materials. She was already annoyed by all sorts of trivial matters.
Just then, the office door was pushed open, and Yang Wei Gang entered with Yang Long.
Yang Wei Gang put on a smiling face and placed a card on Meng Qing Xue's desk. He got straight to the point, "Madam Meng, be magnanimous and release Liao Zhi Xin. He was just momentarily confused, but he didn't commit any major offense."
"This card has a shopping limit of five million, usable throughout Qingzhou region. Please accept it, Miss Meng."
Meng Qing Xue glanced at Yang Wei Gang and Yang Long, nodded, and said impatiently, "Alright, alright, hurry up and leave."
Seeing that Meng Qing Xue so easily accepted his shopping card, Yang Wei Gang was overjoyed, almost as if he were dreaming.
Yang Wei Gang immediately pulled Yang Long out of the office.
Yang Long whispered, "Is it done?"
Yang Wei Gang said proudly, "Of course. As long as she accepts the shopping card, everything will be easy."
"Son, do you see? Money makes things happen in this society. Without money, you can't move an inch. Five million, as long as it can save your uncle, it will be too easy for our Yang family to earn it back in the future."
"But without your uncle's position, many of our Yang family's businesses will be difficult to conduct in the future."
Yang Long immediately said to Yang Wei Gang, "Dad, I've learned my lesson."
The father and son left Meng Qing Xue's office with chuckles.
Meng Qing Xue looked at the shopping card on her desk, pursed her lips, then tapped her desk and called a subordinate. She said, "Donate this card to the welfare home. Let the director buy more good things for the children."
"Also, add another charge of bribery to Liao Zhi Xin's record. In short, he must be taken down this time."
Seeing that Meng Qing Xue had openly accepted a shopping card worth five million and was now donating it to the welfare home, the subordinate quickly whispered, "Madam Meng, what you're doing is a bit irregular. You shouldn't have accepted the card when they came to deliver it. They've probably recorded it, and if they come looking for trouble with you later, it won't be good."
Meng Qing Xue waved her hand indifferently, "What am I afraid of? At most, I'll be suspended. I couldn't ask for anything better!"
"Go quickly, hurry up and donate this card. I want to see how much influence Liao Zhi Xin really has, and how many more people will pay to get him out."
The subordinate gave a thumbs up, sincerely admiring her, "Madam Meng, you truly have high moral integrity and a clear conscience. I admire you immensely."
At this moment, Liao Zhi Xin, in the interrogation room, had no idea that he had committed an even greater crime. More and more evidence was being uncovered by Meng Qing Xue's team.
For the past decade, Liao Zhi Xin had helped the Yang family commit many illegal acts. Now, each one was being uncovered, and each was enough to cost Liao Zhi Xin his official position.
Meng Qing Xue glanced at the time. She was too lazy to bother with Liao Zhi Xin's matter.
At six o'clock in the evening, Meng Qing Xue stood up abruptly and hurried out.
She had finally finished work for the day. Tonight, she could go home, play a few games, and then sleep soundly.
Just then, footsteps sounded, and Shen Chong entered Meng Qing Xue's office with a stern-looking middle-aged man.
Shen Chong introduced politely, "Captain Liu, this is Meng Qing Xue. She is our star police officer in Qingzhou City, and she has achieved various merits before."
Liu Shan Shui nodded, then said to Meng Qing Xue, "Miss Meng, there is a top-secret mission tonight that requires your participation. Please come with me, and please hand over your mobile phone."
