Chapter 472: Making Things Worse

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

News of Shen Hanyu was everywhere on the internet.

The first person to call Sang Qianqian was Fang Lan.

Fang Lan was originally on a business trip to Europe. Later, she met Zhong Yao by accident and fell in love with him at first sight. She simply stayed there and did not come back.

Under her relentless pestering, Zhong Yao actually got to know and accept her. Of course, she was not his girlfriend, but his friend.

When she found out that something had happened to Shen Hanyu, she no longer cared about her feelings and immediately rushed to Country A.

From her, Sang Qianqian had learned some information about Shen Hanyu and his secrets.

“Phoenix Technology has been developing very quickly overseas in the past few years, especially in Country A. The local companies and the government were in cahoots and had long been eyeing them covetously. The huge amount of bank fraud and crimes against Country A’s national security were all crimes that they wanted to add in!”

Fang Lan said angrily on the other end of the phone, “The identity of that mysterious person is said to be a competitor of Phoenix Technology. The contents of their report were all fabricated, but the local police and judicial department wanted to believe everything. They made this lawsuit known to everyone and even found the media to publicize it. It’s obvious that they want to smear Phoenix Technology’s name! These people had already set up a trap to lure Guo Muyang and Hanyu into a trap and completely destroy the company.”

The people Fang Lan mentioned included not only Phoenix Technology’s competitors, but also the police, court, and even the Country A’s intelligence department.

Guo Muyang was the first to receive the news and went to Country A to deal with the matter. However, on the way from the airport to the hotel, he encountered a mysterious shooting and was seriously injured.

This was also the reason why Shen Hanyu had suddenly left the capital for Country A.

They had thought that this was a malicious lawsuit initiated by a competitor. It was only when the police detained him on groundless charges that everyone realized that this matter was not as simple as it seemed.

Just as Fang Lan had said, those people had already set up a trap. Their goal was Phoenix Technology.

“How is Guo Muyang now?”

Sang Qianqian’s heart tightened when she heard this. “And Hantu…”

“The bullet was only a few centimeters away from his heart. Guo Muyang is lucky. He won’t die, but he’ll have to stay in the hospital for a while.”

Fang Lan consoled her, “As for Hanyu, the police have refused to visit him. However, I have hired the best lawyer to help him apply for bail. He will be released tomorrow at the latest.”

Of course, the prerequisite was that they had to pay an unimaginable amount of bail money.

Even though she said that, Fang Lan was still worried. “This is not a small matter. According to the police, even if someone comes out, they will have to restrict their residence and place them under surveillance. Their personal freedom and movements will also be restricted. Moreover, the government is deliberately involved in this lawsuit. I’m afraid that Hanyu won’t be able to get away with it easily. 1 have to be prepared for a long battle…”

“Qianqian, when are you coming over?” she asked.

Sang Qianqian was stunned. She whispered, “I… 1 can’t…”

“How could that be? I heard from Hanyu that you’ve already resigned, right?”

Fang Lan was surprised and then a little dissatisfied. “How can you not come over when something so serious happened to him?” When the time comes, he’ll be under surveillance and won’t be able to go out. If you don’t come and accompany him, he’ll be so bored alone…”

During the two months when Sang Qianqian disappeared, Shen Hanyu did not tell anyone the real reason. As a result, the Zhen family only thought that they had a fight. Fang Lan was far away overseas and had no idea what had happened between them. That was why she said all this.

Sang Qianqian was silent, not knowing how to answer.

However, Fang Lan suddenly realized something. She frowned and thought for a while. “No, you’d better not come. The situation here is unclear. It’s hard to tell who’s friend or foe. If something happens to you, Hanyu will blame me for making the decision…”

After hanging up for some time, Sang Qianqian still stood there absent-mindedly. Her face had turned cold.

When she thought of Shen Hanyu, her heart felt like it had been stuffed with a cold lemon, and it was unusually sour and uncomfortable.

With Fang Lan around, he should be able to get out of prison soon. However, as the former had said, it would not be so easy to get out since the government was involved behind the scenes.

Now, she couldn’t even give him the most basic companionship and greeting…

Even though Country A’s local enterprises and government had long wanted to suppress Phoenix Technology, Sang Qianqian was almost 100% sure that Ruan Xiaodie was behind this.

Moreover, Ruan Xiaodie would never stop there. It was probably her style to hit someone when they were down.

Phoenix Technology was affected by this matter, and it was inevitable that its stock price would fall. However, this was not what worried Sang Qianqian.

Shen Hanyu and Guo Muyang’s colleagues were in trouble, so this was like adding insult to injury for the company. Nobody knew if there was anyone in Ming City’s headquarters who could take charge of the situation. If Ruan Xiaodie did something to Phoenix Technology at this time…

Sang Qianqian thought of the current chaos in Zhen Group. She closed her eyes, wiped away her tears, and hurried to find Xie Shi’an.

“You mean, you want me to look for Zhen Yiping and ask him to arrange for someone to help take care of Phoenix Technology?”

Xie Shi’an expressed his doubts. “1 heard that Zhen Yiping is in the hospital and Zhen Group is in a mess. He hasn’t made any moves or expressed his stance at all. I’m afraid that even if he wants to help, he won’t be able to do so…”

The outside world thought that Zhen Yiping’s illness was very serious. Otherwise, how could he watch Zhen Zhu’s dispute with Li Zhongjin become more intense without saying a word? Could he spare the time and energy to care about Phoenix Technology?

“His illness shouldn’t be like this.”

Sang Qianqian and the old lady had personally sent Zhen Yiping to the hospital that day and waited for him to come out of the operating room. She knew his condition very well.

Although it was serious, it was still under control. Moreover, he had already recuperated for so long. At most, his body was still weak and he wouldn’t be exhausted. However, he wasn’t so weak to the extent that he couldn’t even show his face and communicate normally.

Sang Qianqian didn’t know why Zhen Yiping kept silent in the name of recuperating, but she vaguely felt that with his experience in the business world, he must have other considerations.

It was inconvenient for her to see him now, but Xie Shi’an could remind him tactfully. Zhen Yiping would definitely know what to do.

Xie Shi’an thought about it and stood up. “Alright, 1’11 go now.”

Sang Qianqian stopped him and said, “Wait. There’s something else that needs to be done immediately.”

It was even more urgent than meeting Zhen Yiping.

Since they already knew that Shen Shaofeng was in the country, they had to find his whereabouts as soon as possible so that they would no longer be held hostage by Ruan Xiaodie..
