Chapter 772: An Idiot Father-In-Law
Translator: Udeze Editor: Udeze
Yang Chuxiong looked around. After he found that nobody was nearby, he said bitterly, “You should not have known. This Miao Hengfu has a patron behind his back, someone from the Mu Family of Beijing. This man surely will never let this matter go now that Miao Hengfu has been killed. This is just… aargh!”
Tang Xiu intentionally asked, “I have a relationship with someone from the Mu Family, might you tell me who that man is?”
“He’s Mu Jianhua,” whispered Yang Chuxiong.
“You mean… the backer behind Miao Hengfu is Mu Jianhua?” asked Tang Xiu, looking surprised.
“Yeah! Though Mu Jianhua is famous trash, good-for-nothing idiot, he still has the blood of the Mu Family after all. His father is the current head of the Mus, and it would be pretty troublesome if he got upset.”
An idiot?
Tang Xiu’s mouth twitched a bit and then said with a helpless expression, “I need to be frank with you, Division Commander Yang. That idiot you just mentioned is actually my future father-in-law.”
“Your… what?” Yang Chuxiong was utterly dumbfounded.
“Yeah. My girlfriend is Mu Wanying and Mu Jianhua is her father so that idiot you told me about is my future father-in-law,” confirmed Tang Xiu.
Cough! Cough…
Yang Chuxiong coughed twice, looking awkward and embarrassed. He suddenly wished the floor could have a hole he could burrow himself into. Though he did feel that Mu Jianhua was a disgrace, he had some admiration for Tang Xiu, while he just actually cursed his father-in-law right before him…. this… was really shameful.
“Alright, you didn’t know, so I don’t blame you, Division Commander Yang. You don’t have to worry about that.” Tang Xiu just let out a smile and said, “Besides, Mu Jianhua is himself, whereas my girlfriend is who she is. Well, let’s cut this topic off, then. Since the one behind the Qingyuan Group can be said as someone close to me, then I’ll help clean up this mess!”
Yang Chuxiong let out a dry, hollow chuckle before he quickly said, “What exactly do you want to do, Mr. Tang? The Qingyuan Group does have some businesses on the surface, but they also have some dirty ones in the back. If it wasn’t for… err… the Mu Family’s support behind them, we could have taken down Miao Hengfu’s operation already.”
Tang Xiu perfectly understood Yang Chuxiong’s meaning and slightly smiled. Then he nodded and said, “I understand. You can rest assured about that, Division Commander Yang. The future Qingyuan Group will not have anything to do with any unclean business anymore. Anyways, I still have to tend to something, so I’ll take my leave.”
****
Qingyuan Group.
When Tang Xiu came to the company with Jin Shi and Xue Shan, he was stopped by several security guards before he entered the front door of the company, even then the security guards were very rude.
“This is my ID.”
Tang Xiu took out the green book and watched as the security guards had their complexions drastically changing and having their attitudes turn 180 degrees toward him. He then immediately hummed coldly and said, “You are not to speak anything about my identity. Back to your job!”
With that said, he waltzed inside. After passing through the building’s front entrance, Tang Xiu found two young female receptionists fiddling with their mobile phones at the lobby, while several young men and women were gathered having a chat.
“It’s odd. No one here has any device that produces static electricity,” Jin Shi, who was walking alongside Tang Xiu, couldn’t help but comment.
Tang Xiu also frowned. He then toward the lobby and said, “I’m someone from the government. I’ll have to trouble you to inform call the senior executives of the Qingyuan Group here in half an hour tops!”
The two lady receptionists observed Tang Xiu and his men for some time before one of them immediately shook her head and said with a beautiful smile, “Please don’t pull a prank on us, Sir. We would have already received the news should there be any inspection from the government. Also, our Boss is not here currently. You might have to wait for some time for him to come back.”
Tang Xiu then spoke in a heavy tone, “Contact all the senior executives of your Qingyuan Group to gather in the meeting room here, except for your Boss, of course. This is my ID. Obstruct my work and you shall be prosecuted as acting against the law!”
“This…” The two female receptionists looked at the green book, but neither of them knew what it meant. After some hesitation, the woman said, “We have no authority to do that, Sir. How about calling Vice Li, the Vice President of the Qingyuan Group? Would you like to speak to him first?”
“Fine!” Tang Xiu nodded.
A few minutes later, a middle-aged man in his 40s came to the lobby along with two young men. After he observed Tang Xiu trio for some time, he said, “Hello, I’m Li Heming, the Vice President of the Qingyuan Group. And you are…”
After showing his proof of authority, Tang Xiu spoke in a deep tone, “Given your position as the Vice President of the company, you should know what it means being represented by this document. Now, I command you to contact all senior executives of the Qingyuan Group at once to convene in the meeting room. As for your Boss, I won’t wait for him.”
Li Heming looked a bit pale. He had never seen this green book before but he had heard what it represented by the words written on its cover. He quickly nodded and walked to the side. The first one he called was his Big Boss, Miao Hengfu, but much to his headache, the Big Boss did not even answer him at all.
