56: Chapter 051 [Adding Feet to a Snake] 56: Chapter 051 [Adding Feet to a Snake] For some reason, as he watched his subordinates and colleagues who once admired, envied, and even resented him now attack him with venomous words and apologize to Ye Fan one by one, Xu Weize felt as if he had been provoked.

Instead of panicking, he found it somewhat amusing, even allowing a hint of disdain to flicker in his eyes!

“Xu Weize, you still have the face to laugh?” Zhang Tiejun, seeing this, was immediately unable to contain his anger, and the others glared at Xu Weize with furious expressions.

“Don’t you think what you’re doing is ridiculous?”

There was no longer a trace of panic on Xu Weize’s face because…

Zhang Tiejun and the others’ opportunistic behavior reminded him—he had never betrayed He Fenghua, although through his identity as an undercover agent, the Su Family had cunningly clinched the project!

Moreover, even if his undercover identity had been exposed, with his skills, he was still valuable to He Fenghua and even the He Family!

In such a situation, it was not likely that He Fenghua would be angry with him!

Moreover, due to Ye Fan’s recent assault on He Fenghua, He Fenghua would inevitably seek retribution and naturally not let the Su Family target him!

And through his many years as an undercover agent at the Lv Hu Group, he knew very well that the official tree the Su Family relied on was about to retire, while the tree the He Family relied on was likely to grow even further, especially with He Fenghua’s newest ally Han Guodong, who was rumored to be affiliated with the powerful Beijing Bai Family.

“Xu Weize, I’ve called the police already.

I believe the law will give you a just outcome.”

Xu Weize’s apparent indifference completely infuriated Su Yuxin, her tone turning utterly cold, “Moreover, don’t expect He Fenghua to save you.

He will face the law’s sanctions just like you.”

Xu Weize curled his lip, thinking Su Yuxin’s threat of using the law against him and He Fenghua was simply foolish.

“Xu Weize, won’t you see reason until you are dead?

Open your damn eyes and look carefully!” Next to the window, Yang Miaomiao, seeing Xu Weize’s arrogance, was furious.

As she spoke, she pointed her finger down toward the street.

Hmm?

Xu Weize raised his eyebrows, took a couple of steps forward, and was shocked to notice three police cars parked at the entrance of the bidding building.

At the same time.

He Fenghua, accompanied by Lu Jian and other young masters along with employees from the He Group, took the elevator to the ground floor.

During the descent, He Fenghua didn’t mention anything about the earlier incident, just scowled, and no one knew what was on his mind.

“Young Master He, leave this to me.

I’m calling right now to find someone to cripple that bastard!” Walking through the first-floor lobby, Lu Jian hesitated for a moment, then spoke resolutely.

The beating He Fenghua had endured was because of him, so he felt obliged to help He Fenghua reclaim face.

Besides, Ye Fan had slapped him ten times—a grudge he could not overlook.

“You all go back first.”

He Fenghua did not respond to Lu Jian’s words but gestured for the He Group employees to leave, while not naively telling them to keep today’s events a secret.

He knew today’s incident could not be concealed.

“Young Master He, just tell us how you want to handle that little bastard, and we’ll do it!” After the He Group employees left, another young master spoke up.

“Yes, Young Master He.”

The other young masters were also eagerly readying themselves to act on He Fenghua’s command, seeming ready to ensure Ye Fan would meet a grim end.

He Fenghua was about to say something when suddenly eight policemen entered the lobby, heading straight for them.

Could Young Master He be using the police to deal with that little bastard?

Seeing the police, Lu Jian and the others suddenly had this thought.

In their memory, He Fenghua had once crippled an upstart from out of town using this tactic.

“He Fenghua, I am Deputy Captain Shi Qing from the Economic Crimes Division of the city police, here is my badge.” Shi Qing and his team approached He Fenghua, produced his badge, and said seriously, “According to relevant evidence, you are suspected of economic crimes.

Please come with us to the police station for an investigation.”

The police were here to arrest Young Master He?!

Lu Jian and the others had initially thought the police were called by He Fenghua to deal with Ye Fan, but they were stunned upon hearing Shi Qing’s words.

Meanwhile, He Fenghua furrowed his brows, his eyes flickering as if trying to understand the trick behind this.

“Captain Shi, are you sure you’re not mistaken?”

“Captain Shi, police work relies on evidence.

It’s illegal to arrest someone without evidence.”

“That’s right, if you arrest Young Master He without evidence, not just you but perhaps even your superiors wouldn’t be able to bear the responsibility!”

Somewhat later, before He Fenghua could react, Lu Jian and the other two young masters spoke up, intentionally or unintentionally reminding Shi Qing and his team of He Fenghua’s status, urging them to think before they acted.

Other young masters had not yet become close enough to He Fenghua to speak up for him and boost his morale, but they all looked at Captain Shi and his group with a mocking gaze, finding their actions ridiculous.

Because…

in their view, given the He Family’s power in Jiangnan, He Fenghua was not someone that a mere deputy captain of the Economic Investigation Team could touch, especially since He Fenghua’s future father-in-law was the second in command of the Jiangnan officialdom.

“Captain Shi, I would like to know how I am suspected of economic crime?”

After a brief moment of thought, He Fenghua seemed to have figured it out and couldn’t help but laugh, his mocking smile far surpassing those of the young masters.

“You promised many benefits to buy over Xu Weize, the deputy general manager of the Lv Hu Group Jiangnan Company.

Xu Weize leaked various secrets of the Lv Hu Group Jiangnan Company to you, allowing the He Group to profit from it,” Captain Shi said gravely.

Upon hearing Captain Shi’s words, Lu Jian and the other young masters suddenly understood – they not only grasped why He Fenghua had been so confident before but also recognized the reason behind his failure.

He Fenghua had apparently guessed this point already, the smile on his face unwavering: “I’m very curious, what is your evidence?”

“He Fenghua, once you are in the police station, we will present sufficient evidence.

Now is not the time to produce evidence.”

Perhaps it was He Fenghua’s attitude that irritated Captain Shi greatly, his tone somewhat somber, “Not only you, but the involved Xu Weize will also be taken back to the police station.

You can confront him face-to-face there.”

“I am very willing to cooperate with the police.”

Although he said that, the scornful smile on He Fenghua’s face grew thicker, apparently regarding Su Yuxin’s tactic as too amateurish.

Lu Jian and the other young masters adopted an attitude of watching a show.

After all, back in the day, a third-tier young master from Hanghu, who was even lower in status and identity than them, caused the once sensational ‘Seventy Code’ incident and yet ended up with little consequence.

How could such an economic case be a problem for someone with He Fenghua’s status?

Ten minutes later, while He Fenghua and his group and the eight Economic Investigation police officers led by Captain Shi were waiting, Ye Fan and Su Yuxin’s group emerged from the elevator.

Xu Weize walked at the front of the crowd.

Seeing He Fenghua’s group standing fearlessly in front of Captain Shi and his group, he grew even more confident that nothing would happen to him, but he didn’t show it.

Instead, he looked at He Fenghua apologetically, then shifted his gaze away, pretending not to know He Fenghua.

“Xu Weize, based on the evidence, you are suspected of leaking trade secrets.

Please come with us to the police station for investigation!” At the same time, Captain Shi approached him directly and blocked his way with a cold voice.

“Officer, although I don’t know where your evidence comes from, I am certain I haven’t broken the law.

Of course, I will cooperate with you,” Xu Weize responded, displaying the same clever composure as his boss, He Fenghua, in the face of intimidating police.

“Whether you have broken the law is not for you to decide!”

Originally, Captain Shi had already been quite irritated by He Fenghua, and now seeing Xu Weize and He Fenghua having the same demeanor, he was even more infuriated and coldly ordered, “Take him away!”

Xu Weize remained composed and let two police officers escort him away.

“Wait.”

Meanwhile, as two police officers approached him, He Fenghua used an unequivocal tone to stop them.

Without waiting for Captain Shi to issue further orders, he led his group swiftly toward Ye Fan and Su Yuxin.

“Su Yuxin, I must admit, you played this turnaround beautifully.”

He Fenghua stopped a meter away from Su Yuxin and spoke as though analyzing the situation, but his eyes gleamed coldly, “But…

your final move was just gilding the lily, utterly ridiculous.”

Su Yuxin’s face was expressionless, ignoring He Fenghua’s provocation entirely.

He Fenghua didn’t mind, shifted his gaze from Su Yuxin’s face, and looking towards Ye Fan with a taunting smile: “Mr.

Ye, do you think I could also use the excuse that you assaulted someone to send you to the police station?”

“He Fenghua, you can try!”

Before Ye Fan could speak, Su Yuxin coldly delivered her reply, as if indicating that if He Fenghua dared to do so, she would fight him tooth and nail.

“Such foolish tactics, I neither use nor care for,”

He Fenghua mocked with a glance at Su Yuxin and then stared intensely at Ye Fan, “I just want to remind Mr.

Ye, no one has ever dared to touch me.”

“Care to try it again?” Ye Fan asked with narrowed eyes.

He Fenghua pursed his lips, ultimately not daring to utter a word.

Because.

Instinct and reason told him that if he dared to utter another word, Ye Fan would definitely strike him, police presence or not!
