Mr. Chu thought that would make them leave.
However, neither Mubai nor Xinghe even moved a muscle, as if they were not at all worried about the police's involvement…
”When the police get here, neither of you will be getting away scot-free!” Mr. Chu threatened with added emphasis.
Tianxin suddenly pointed her finger at Xinghe and warned, ”Even if you run, I will not forgive you! Xia Xinghe, how dare you accuse me! You're finished, I tell you!”
”Accuse you? Chu Tianxin, do you think I can't do anything because I have no proof?” Xinghe rebutted coldly.
A flash of smugness crossed Tianxin's eyes. ”It is not my fault that you have no proof. Xia Xinghe, if you can't produce any proof now, then it is just a baseless accusation, so don't think you can wiggle your way out of this. I will pursue you with a libel lawsuit even until the end of the world!”
”And criminal intimidation—” Mrs. Chu added furiously, ”The two of you threatened our lives so we will definitely pursue this!”
”Then what about corruption and criminal bribery?” Xinghe asked suddenly and it stunned the Chu family.
What corruption and criminal bribery?
Xinghe explained with a smile, ”I've always wondered how your entire family could live in luxury when your father is just a public servant and you're a lowly writer. So, I did some digging and the answer I found is my second present for you, Tianxin. The rotten apple really didn't fall far from the diseased tree. I have in my possession all the records of your father's corruption. Thanks for calling the police, Mr. Chu; you've saved me the trip to the police station.”
Mr. Chu's face fell.
He started to panic. How could Xia Xinghe possibly know about my malpractices?
And not only that, she apparently has evidence of them…
No, she must be bluffing, she's only a little girl; how can she possibly accomplish that?
Mr. Chu's years of experience in the political stratosphere helped calm himself down quickly.
