Xu Feng's retreat was completely blocked, which unintentionally made Su Qing very happy.
Actually, if he didn't need to leverage Wang Shanshan's family background, he wouldn't have to reveal to Xu Feng that he already knew there were problems within his company. He could just wait for the bomb to explode.
But after all, many hands make light work, and there's no reason not to use Wang Shanshan's influence when it's available. He couldn't believe Wang Shanshan's father, Wang Zheng, would remain indifferent to his daughter being cheated out of millions and a property.
A business owner with a large network would naturally have powerful connections, and he was sure it would lead to unexpected results. He didn't mind helping Xu Feng to fail faster.
As for the landlady, it had already been two days; she should have found out sothing by now. It wouldn't be long before it all blew up, and by then, Xu Feng would be in a dead end, with bankruptcy being the best outco.
So when he went ho, he was in an exceptionally good mood.
However, when he opened the door and got ho, the living room was unusually lively with Shen Yi and the landlady both there. The little girl, Wen Yun, was in front of the big dog's doghouse, tugging at its tail, trying to drag it out.
But she was too small and couldn't manage it, eventually falling on her butt and almost crying, with big teardrops swirling in her eyes.
Fortunately, the dog, seeing this, stuck out its head, which made the little girl smile through her tears.
Now, the landlady was very comfortable with the little girl playing with the dog, even welcoming the dog to her house. After all, that ant she didn't have to play with the child, and it was very convenient— the dog babysitter only needed three als a day, which was quite economical.
"Little Su, you're back?"
"Hmph, you still know to co back!"
"Hello Su Dad!"
The two won and one child in the room greeted him in unison as he walked in, making the atmosphere very congenial.
This scene was rare in the city's apartnt buildings. Even Wen Nanqing felt life had beco much more interesting since he and Shen Yi moved in. After all, it was nice to have sowhere to hang out every now and then.
Hearing this, Su Qing didn't bother with Aunt Shen's cold huff and replied to the landlady, "Sister Wen, you're here. Just finished my work!"
With that, he changed his shoes and walked straight to the doghouse, rubbing the little girl's head gently and asking, "Little Yun, have you eaten?"
"Yes, I'm full." As she said this, the little girl patted her tummy, then pointed at the dog curled up in the doghouse and complained, "The dog won't co out to play with !"
Hearing this, Su Qing nudged the dog with his foot: "Hey, that's enough. Soone wants to play with you, and you're just lying there? Co out now!"
The dog: "Woof woof!" [You really treat like a beast of burden, don't you? Are you a human? I'm not going out, I'm tired and resting!]
"That's fine, tomorrow I'll send you to the police station to find Er Lu and his friends, and you'll be doing five kiloters a day!"
Hearing this, the dog imdiately perked up and quickly crawled out of the doghouse, sitting in front of the little girl and barking twice: "Woof woof" [You're the real dog here!]
Having such a cunning owner, the dog was quite stressed, and now it longed for the carefree days back ho.
The dog felt uneasy, but the little girl was happy, clapping her hands as she hugged the dog's neck wanting to give it a kiss.
Watching the mutual understanding between the girl and the dog, both the landlady and Shen Yi were curious about how Su Qing managed it.
Although they knew the dog was very intelligent, able to understand even their simple instructions, Su Qing gave them the impression that he could actually hear the dog speak. It was fascinating.
Seeing the dog co out, Su Qing nodded with satisfaction and then heavily plopped down on the sofa, exhausted and not wanting to get up at all.
The day had been overly eventful and absurdly fulfilling. He had gone to the police station in the morning to investigate a case, interrogated two waves of suspects, t Xu Feng in the afternoon for a battle of wits, and even stopped by the company. In the evening, he even had to explore life's questions with Wang Shanshan. If every day were like this, he wanted to die from it all. All of this, ultimately, was Shen Yi's fault.
His waist was faintly aching, showing signs of a herniated disk.
Seeing him so physically drained, the two won were slightly surprised.
Shen Yi, who was closest to him, leaned over and sniffed him curiously:
"Did you drink?"
"You could tell?" Su Qing was a bit surprised. After all, he had only had a little cocktail, with a tangy-sweet taste that wasn't too much. He was only slightly tipsy.
"What do you think? You can't hold your liquor. Why did you drink today?" Shen Yi asked, puzzled.
Su Qing rolled his eyes at her: "Wasn't it for you?"
"For ?"
"I went to see Wang Shanshan and t her!"
"Why did you go to et her?"
In response, he didn't hide anything and explained his plan and his eting with Wang Shanshan, leaving the two of them dumbfounded.
It was unbelievable that in just one day, he had done so much and taken things this far.
If things were truly as he said, then Xu Feng's side would be the first to beco chaotic.
"Oh dear~~ This is what it's like to have a man backing you up at ho. I'm so envious, Xiao Yi! Look at how tired you've made Xiao Su, shouldn't you express so gratitude?" The landlady said, joining her hands together in teasing.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yi's cheeks turned slightly red, but she quickly punched Su Qing: "Could you at least discuss things with first? I thought you were out doing sothing late at night again!"
Su Qing didn't say anything, silently taking the punch; he was truly exhausted.
"Yeah, soone even thought you went to see your university professor!" Wen Nanqing chid in from the side, making Shen Yi grit her teeth in annoyance.
Seeing this, Wen Nanqing hurriedly continued: "Alright, even if soone doesn't care, your sister still wants to express her gratitude."
Having said that, she took out two beautifully packaged boxes from under the coffee table and placed them on top, saying:
"Xiao Su, this is a gift from your sister Nan and . Seeing how tired you are, your sister found a renowned traditional Chinese doctor for you."
Upon hearing this, Su Qing opened his eyes and imdiately saw the words "Enhance Yang, Benefit Essence and Blood" on the boxes, his eyes widening in surprise.
"This... this is..."
"It's Cistanche. It's beneficial for n to eat regularly. It's just like how won often consu Huang Qi and donkey-hide gelatin. They're all supplents, and you're still young, you'll benefit from it!"
Su Qing: ...
He finally understood why the side notes had been hinting he would receive supplents, and indeed two portions.
But why are you giving this stuff? Even if you want to gift it, can't you remove the words about enhancing Yang? It makes seem like I'm already weak in my early twenties.
"Uh... thank you!"
"You're welco!" It wasn't clear if the landlady caught the undertone of his words, her expression was one of pride, as if she had accomplished sothing significant.
"By the way, Sister Wen, do you have any news?" Su Qing asked.
Wen Nanqing nodded: "My brother called this afternoon, and there's no news yet, but he's already looking into the tax issues at Xu Feng's company. Even his factory in the West Suburb has many violations, especially with fire safety issues, at least it will cause so trouble for him."
At this, Su Qing nodded in satisfaction. It had only been two days, after all. If a company's internal situation could be uncovered by outsiders, it would be absurd. What kind of company would have such loopholes?
But as long as soone was watching Xu Feng's company's tax issues, uncovering them was just a matter of ti. As for the factory's fire safety problems, those were minor matters, essentially just a way to deliberately trouble him.
"Let's wait for news then!"
anwhile, in another upscale neighborhood in Jiangcheng City Center, a middle-aged couple was scolding their daughter.
"Are you out of your mind? That's ten million! Do you think you can spend it like a thousand bucks? Just handing it over for soone else to invest in their company? How did I end up with a daughter like you?" A middle-aged man with graying hair shouted at his daughter, who was none other than Wang Shanshan's father, Wang Zheng.
After parting ways with Su Qing, Wang Shanshan thought for a long ti and eventually decided to confess to her parents. When her father found out she had taken several million and sold one of her properties, he was livid.
If their child lost money in business, whether it was ten million or even twenty million, he would accept it. But he couldn't accept their child being scamd like a fool.
"Dad..."
"Don't call Dad, I'm not your father!" Wang Zheng yelled angrily, scaring Wang Shanshan into silence, sitting with her flushed face on the sofa.
Finally, the woman next to him spoke up: "Her dad, forget it. It's useless to talk about it now. We should think about how to get the money back. If what the person who leaked information to Shanshan said is true, Xu Feng's company is just an empty shell now!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Zheng looked sharply at his wife and said in a deep voice:
"Are you sure the person you t tonight and everything you told are true?"
Wang Shanshan nodded. Seeing this, Wang Zheng took a deep breath, closed his eyes for a while, and then spoke: "Alright, I understand this matter now. You don't need to worry about it. Give the contact information of the person you t today. Also, for the next few days, without my permission, don't go out, don't contact Xu Feng, and turn off your phone. Understand?"
"Un...understood!"
