Luojia has been missing for seven days, and the officials of Mingjing City have announced that Luojia is likely already dead.
The specific situation is still under investigation. The initial hypothesis is that a star system-level space fluctuation caused Luojia and others to disappear entirely.
This news caused a huge uproar, and the official website of the Mingjing City administration was instantly flooded with countless comnts.
All these comnts were without exception cursing the administration and the Law Enforcent Departnt.
The official response strategy was simple, closing the comnt section of the official website.
As for other social platforms, they just lay down and allowed insults.
The power of public opinion is strong, but for the governance system at Mingjing City’s level, public opinion will not have any substantial impact.
Unless, unless soone from above wants to take action against them.
The Law Enforcent Departnt is not entirely useless; they made a list of the missing persons.
Bai Yutang was listed among them.
What surprised Gao Xuan a little was that a lawyer nad Feng Zheng found him.
"Mr. Gao, I am Feng Zheng from the Iron Bone Law Firm. Ms. Bai Yutang’s will is handled by our firm."
Feng Zheng handed a flexible soft screen tablet to Gao Xuan, "Ms. Bai Yutang made it very clear in her will that you are the legal heir to all her estates."
Gao Xuan was slightly surprised: "Is that so..."
Feng Zheng was also surprised. Gao Xuan didn’t seem very happy or shocked about inheriting the estate, nor did he show any grief or sorrow.
This young man’s deanor was too calm, which was quite unusual.
However, this young man was indeed extraordinarily handso. No wonder Bai Yutang left all her estate to him.
"Ms. Bai has 7% shares of Zhengqi Hall under her na, as well as various fixed assets, bank deposits, and so on, with the total assets valued at nearly eight billion..."
Feng Zheng diligently introduced the assets to Gao Xuan one by one. Of course, eight billion was just an approximate valuation.
Undoubtedly, the most valuable part was the shares of Zhengqi Hall, estimated at about seventy billion based on market value, with the remaining fixed assets and cash only totaling ten billion.
For soone of Bai Yutang’s background and age to have such a substantial fortune is truly remarkable.
Of course, Bai Yutang certainly had the skills and abilities. Although an eighth-level expert appeared weak before Gao Xuan, they were already a top expert among ordinary people.
After explaining the situation of Bai Yutang’s assets, Feng Zheng passed the soft screen tablet to Gao Xuan: "Mr. Gao, I need your signature authorization here before I can proceed with the estate transfer."
The soft light screen was densely packed with various clauses. The authorization docunt contained over one hundred thousand words.
Feng Zheng said: "Once you sign, the transfer procedures can be completed within a month, including estate tax and other tax issues, which I will help you resolve together."
Gao Xuan didn’t speak. He gently stroked the soft screen tablet of the Light Computer, "I’m not in the mood right now. Leave the docunts here. I’ll find you when I’ve decided."
Gao Xuan smiled faintly: "I won’t see you out, Lawyer Feng."
Feng Zheng hurriedly stood up, "I was too hasty. Mr. Gao, take care and slowly adjust your emotions. The estate transfer has a valid period of one month, no rush."
The beautiful assistant also hurriedly stood up.
"Lawyer Feng, take care." Gao Xuan added politely.
Feng Zheng smiled as he left the room, but his handso face darkened once the door closed.
Feng Zheng adjusted his gold wire glasses. These decorative glasses made him appear more elegant and elite, also helping to mask changes in his expression.
However, his eyes were now almost shooting fire, and the glasses couldn’t hide it.
The beautiful assistant snorted and said, "That kid is so troubleso."
"There are caras everywhere here, don’t talk recklessly."
Feng Zheng suppressed his anger and stopped the beautiful assistant from complaining.
Now there are too many surveillance caras, especially in public places like schools. Carelessly saying sothing wrong could easily beco incriminating evidence.
Once back in his car, Feng Zheng said with a gloomy face, "That kid seems smart. I’m afraid he won’t sign the authorization letter."
There was another lawyer, Tie Zhonghai, in the car. He was the head and chairman of the Iron Bone Law Firm.
Bai Yutang’s estate was enormous, and she didn’t have any relatives.
This fact is crucial. If Bai Yutang were from a noble family, no lawyer would dare to take advantage of the noble family.
But since Bai Yutang left her estate to Gao Xuan, it allowed for a lot of maneuverability.
Tie Zhonghai and Feng Zheng had thoroughly investigated Gao Xuan, a young man from the countryside without any backing.
Gao Xuan was very talented in swordsmanship and was quite famous at Mingjing University.
In the eyes of Tie Zhonghai and his colleagues, talent in swordsmanship was not valuable. At least it had no practical use for now.
No matter how high Gao Xuan’s swordsman skills were, how high could they be?
Without familial support, how capable could a young man like Gao Xuan be?
This is the world of noble families. Without family background, you’re at the bottom. People like Bai Yutang, who suddenly beco rich, are too few.
Tie Zhonghai and his team investigated thoroughly and found out that Gao Xuan used to be Wei Zhenzhen’s boyfriend. He also knows Wei Yue.
Just looking at the data, you can tell that Gao Xuan is just a kept pretty boy.
After eting Gao Xuan, Feng Zheng was even more convinced of this.
He said, "With Gao Xuan’s handso looks and graceful deanor, he’s made for living off won. It’s his natural gift. No wonder Bai Yutang is so infatuated with him."
"That exaggerated?"
Tie Zhonghai was sowhat incredulous, "In the video, he looks like a blind man!"
The beautiful assistant quickly said, "Gao Xuan is really good-looking, too beautiful. With his eyes closed, there’s an added touch of mystery. He’s so handso, perfect even. With his eyes closed, he has even more charm..."
Talking about Gao Xuan’s looks, the beautiful assistant seed a bit excited, "If I had money, I’d keep him too."
She paused and said, "But this guy heard about the inheritance and didn’t seem sad at all. What a jerk. Bai Yutang’s heart is truly wasted."
The beautiful assistant thought for a mont and added, "Even so, I’d still like to give it a try."
"You’re almost drooling," Feng Zheng mocked.
Tie Zhonghai saw the assistant’s exaggerated behavior and believed it. Because this female assistant is usually sharp and capable, she never acted infatuated over a man before.
The assistant’s state wasn’t an act.
"Truly a professional at living off won."
Tie Zhonghai said, "Then there’s nothing to fear."
Feng Zheng nodded, "This apartnt was bought for him by Bai Yutang. Also, things like the Flying Leopard Sports Car and the Virtual Landing Pod were all bought for him."
Tie Zhonghai pondered for a mont and said, "The only concern now is that he knows Wei Yue. And, Wei Yue once spoke up for him."
Back then, Gao Xuan injured many noble youths, and this matter was widely known in Mingjing.
Tie Zhonghai did a quick check and found out about it.
Feng Zheng shook his head, "At the ti, Gao Xuan was Wei Zhenzhen’s boyfriend. It was normal for Wei Yue to stand up for him."
He snorted, "But now it’s different. Gao Xuan hooked up with Bai Yutang and dumped Wei Zhenzhen. It’s generous enough that Wei Yue hasn’t killed him. Why would she stand up for him?"
The beautiful assistant nodded in agreent, "That’s right, Wei Yue is such a strong person. She definitely wouldn’t think highly of soone like Gao Xuan who lives off others. However, Gao Xuan is so good-looking, it’s hard to say..."
Feng Zheng glared at the beautiful assistant, and only then did she awkwardly close her mouth.
Although she was fond of Gao Xuan’s looks, she liked money even more. Gao Xuan’s looks were as unreliable as a dream. Money was more tangible.
Tie Zhonghai said, "We shouldn’t rush, let’s wait a couple of days and see. Anyway, the will is with us, Gao Xuan can’t bypass us."
He murmured, "Maybe in a couple of days, Gao Xuan will sign the authorization."
That complex authorization letter actually gives the Iron Bone Law Firm full control over Bai Yutang’s inheritance.
This full control is very subtle; Tie Zhonghai has a thousand ways to transfer Bai Yutang’s inheritance. Because of this authorization letter, everything is reasonable and legal.
In the end, Gao Xuan might only get tens of millions in assets.
Even if Gao Xuan is dissatisfied and wants to go to court, they are not afraid.
After all, they’re lawyers, playing with the law. How could they possibly lose in a legal battle?
But Feng Zheng was getting impatient, "What if Gao Xuan doesn’t sign?"
"Wait a few days, if he doesn’t sign, then hire soone to get rid of him."
Tie Zhonghai’s face was grim. Even for assets of tens of millions, one could kill. Especially for a young man like Gao Xuan without any roots, killing him would be inconsequential.
The beautiful assistant swallowed nervously. She originally wanted to plead for Gao Xuan, but reason ultimately triumphed over emotion. Besides, this wasn’t her decision to make.
"What do you want to say?" Tie Zhonghai looked at the beautiful assistant with displeasure, if she started getting infatuated, he might have to consider silencing her.
The beautiful assistant let out a dry laugh, "I, I wanted to say Gao Xuan is very powerful; we shouldn’t underestimate him."
"Very powerful?" Tie Zhonghai was unconvinced, could he be more powerful than a professional killer?
The beautiful assistant quickly said, "Boss, Gao Xuan is really strong. Online, they all say he’s at least a seventh-level swordsman."
"That exaggerated?"
Tie Zhonghai had seen Gao Xuan’s profile, but there wasn’t detailed information in that regard.
A seventh-level swordsman is indeed very strong. Not just any killer could handle him.
Tie Zhonghai pondered for a mont and said, "Regardless if he’s level seven or eight, as long as the price is right, even a Golden Sword Saint can be killed."
His murderous tone shocked both the beautiful assistant and Feng Zheng.
In the living room, where Gao Xuan was playing gas, he also sensed this malice. His spiritual power instantaneously locked onto Tie Zhonghai and Feng Zheng.
Gao Xuan sighed and said, "Sister Tang, this group of guys wants to kill ..."
