Chen Guoliang frowned deeply, his face turning a mottled shade of red as he heard those ridiculous demands.
"What? You want my family to beco your personal, lifelong cash cow?" Chen Guoliang asked in utter disbelief.
"Guoliang, that is such a harsh and ungrateful way to put it. We are only asking you to help support your blood relatives for a while to make up for your daughter’s sins." Another relative said hypocritically.
"We do not have any money to give you!" Chen Guoliang rejected the demand imdiately before suddenly recalling sothing to shift the bla. "Why do you not go ask Chen Song? Everyone knows he has a literal mountain of money. Go harass him instead!"
"Are you stupid or just playing the part?" One of the relatives snapped, his eyes flashing. "The money he has now does not even belong to him anymore. It is all the money he embezzled from the company. QinYue will definitely reclaim every single cent sooner or later. If we accept blood money from him now and the company investigates the paper trail later, we might get implicated as accomplices. None of us wants that risk. That is why we ca to you instead, since your daughter’s stupidity is the root of this entire problem!"
"Our family... we really do not have any money." Chen ili said weakly, her voice trembling as she hid behind her father’s broad back.
"ili, your family owes us everything. Because of your reckless, jealous mouth, we lost our security. It is only right for you to pay us back." One of the female relatives said coldly, her gaze piercing.
"That’s right! Compensate us properly!"
"Give us the money!"
The relatives all began pointing accusing fingers toward Chen ili, their voices rising into a cacophony of greed and anger. Faced with so many hostile, predatory gazes, Chen ili finally beca genuinely frightened and no longer dared to speak another word.
Then, in the very middle of the heated argunt, everyone suddenly noticed a sleek black car coming to a smooth stop in front of Chen Guoliang’s house. Several n in sharp, formal suits stepped out of the vehicle with an air of absolute authority. Chen Guoliang’s relatives instinctively moved aside, their shouting dying down as the n approached the entrance.
"We are here to et with Miss Chen ili." One of the suited n stated with professional coldness.
"Y-Yes? That’s ." Chen ili said, slowly stepping out from behind her father, her eyes wide with curiosity and fear.
"Miss Chen, you are hereby being served with a formal summons regarding a multi-million yuan defamation lawsuit, along with a criminal complaint for attempted extortion and filing a false police report against the QinYue Group." The man stated calmly.
He handed her a thick, heavy stack of legal docunts that seed to weigh down her entire arm.
Another suited man stepped forward, a faint, rcilessly cold smile touching his lips.
"Miss Chen, for your information, we have also released the full, unedited CCTV footage from the greenhouse to all major news outlets. That footage includes the high-fidelity audio recordings as well. The public has already witnessed you calling our Chairwoman Tang a ’kept woman,’ in addition to watching your completely unprovoked and disgusting verbal assault on a decorated, elderly man."
"The... The audio? You recorded the audio, too?" Chen ili stamred in absolute shock, her face turning a ghostly shade of white.
If that was true, she was truly finished. She knew very well how furious the public would beco after hearing the vile insults she had hurled at an old man that day.
"Yes... Every single disgusting word." The man continued, the thin smile never leaving his lips. "Additionally, we have published the internal audit reports in their entirety. Every relative of yours who was dismissed has had their specific misconduct, embezzlent history, and forged credentials uploaded onto a public transparency portal on our website. Furthermore, your uncle, Chen Song, is currently being sought by the authorities for questioning regarding the disappearance of four million yuan from the regional budget."
"Actually, our Chairwoman Tang originally had no intention of releasing the internal audit reports to the public. She was going to let you leave quietly. However, because Miss Chen ili deliberately attempted to defa our Chairwoman, she decided that the public deserved to know the full truth behind these ’victims’." The man added calmly.
Hearing this, the surrounding relatives turned like a pack of wolves to stare at Chen ili. Their expressions were filled with a mixture of raw anger and deep resentnt. Now, the entire world knew exactly why they had been dismissed. Worse still, finding another job in any reputable company in the future would beco an extraordinary, if not impossible, challenge for them.
"No... No... Wait! This is all a huge misunderstanding! I can explain!" Chen ili cried out desperately, clutching the legal papers to her chest.
"Save your explanations for the judge, Miss Chen. We don’t need to hear that." The man replied indifferently as he turned to leave. However, after taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and looked back at Chen ili and the gathered relatives with a look of pity. "Oh, and one more thing. Every major recruitnt agency in the country has already received digital copies of those audit reports. Chairwoman Tang specifically asked to personally inform you that you were right about one thing. No one in this city will ever hire you again. But it is not because of her power. It is because you finally showed the world exactly who you truly are."
The suited n calmly returned to their car and drove away, leaving a heavy, suffocating silence in their wake.
