The heavy dining chairs rubbed against the wooden floor, making an extremely harsh sound.

Huo Ruman suddenly stood up with a pale face, holding the photo of Shen Shu tightly in her fingers.

This youthful face slowly overlapped with the face of the cheongsam woman tonight, and they overlapped perfectly in her mind.

In just a few seconds, Huo Ruman broke out in a cold sweat.

How could they be the same person? Wasn't that woman from a prominent family in Beijing? How could she be a high school student in the same school as my daughter? !

Huo Ruman was so shocked that she was speechless. Her lips trembled and she couldn't utter a word, as if someone was strangling her throat with both hands.

Li Rao looked at her mother in confusion, not understanding why she had such a big reaction after seeing Shen Shu's photo.

Li Yao, who was sitting nearby reading a newspaper, glanced at Huo Ruman unhappily, thinking that she was so irritable even at her age.

The photo was saved by Li Rao from the school's official website. During the military training, Shen Shu was photographed by the Propaganda Department of the Student Union and used as the cover of the military training news.

The camera was so close that you could even see the fine hairs on Shen Shu's fair cheeks.

Huo Ruman, who was used to all kinds of intrigues in the officialdom, instantly realized that she had fallen into a trap. This Shen Shu was a complete liar! Maybe he was an undercover agent of the police!

broken! ! !

She was shaking with anger and shrilly said, "Quick! Pack your things and book the next flight out of the country!"

She rushed into the study in a panic, opened the safe and took out cash and all other valuables that could be circulated.

Li Yao was stunned for a moment, then he realized that something might have happened. Without asking any more questions, he decisively threw away the newspaper in his hand, grabbed the mobile phone on the table and called his secretary at a very fast speed to instruct them on booking the air ticket.

"It doesn't matter which country, as long as it's the nearest one!"

As he spoke, he rushed into the house to look for the passports and ID cards of his family.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became solemn and tense, as if there was a layer of dark clouds covering the roof, and a sense of danger that a storm was about to come and the house was about to collapse.

The couple had known that such a day would come and had been prepared to run away at any time, so they understood what was happening without having to communicate.

Li Rao was frightened by this sudden change. Her delicate little face was filled with dullness and she didn't react for a long time.

She has always been well protected by her parents, raised in pampered condition, never suffered any hardship and does not understand what this moment means.

A dozen servants looked at this scene in panic. They knew very well that their work would come to an end from today.

The Li family is about to fall.

In less than five minutes, Huo Ruman and Li Yao, each carrying a handbag, dragged the frightened Li Rao towards the gate of the villa.

They were in such a hurry that they didn't even change their slippers. Their heart rates soared to the top. Huo Ruman knew very well that if she couldn't leave the country tonight, she would have to spend the rest of her life in prison, or even be sentenced to death.

"Mom and Dad, will we come back?" Li Rao's voice trembled, as if she realized something.

Huo Ruman and Li Yao had neither the time nor the mood to answer the question raised by their daughter at this moment.

There was a layer of cold sweat on their foreheads, and they just wanted to hurry on their way.

With a creak, the door was opened.

Just as the three were about to rush out, a dozen plainclothes policemen who had been waiting there early rushed out from all directions at lightning speed and surrounded the three of them.

The leader of the investigation team held a gun in one hand and his ID in the other, and said in a cold voice: "Ms. Huo, Mr. Li, please come with us to the bureau."

Huo Ruman subconsciously took a few steps back and fell to the ground in a panic.

It's over. The rest of her life is over...

The cold handcuffs flashed silvery light under the street lights, and the whistling wind of late autumn announced that things were about to change in Zhengzhou.

The next day, Saturday morning at nine o'clock, Shen Shu had a rare full night's sleep before waking up naturally.

She slipped on her slippers and went to the neatly organized closet, where she changed into a loose white sweater with lantern sleeves and a pair of comfortable white pants.

It’s a very simple and basic outfit, but paired with Shen Shu’s long straight black hair and her outstanding temperament when walking among the crowd, she looks particularly youthful, beautiful and eye-catching.

She took the dog for a walk downstairs in the community for a few laps, had a simple breakfast, and then rushed to the company.

"morning!"

After a night of rest last night, Fang Xin quickly got herself back into shape.

She came out of the tea room with a glass of iced American coffee and happened to meet Shen Shu.

The two of them smiled knowingly. The drama that they had been acting out for so long with Huo Ruman and his gang was finally over.

This morning, Shen Shu received a message from He Rui. He said that Huo Ruman and her husband were now detained at the Provincial Public Security Bureau, and their daughter Li Rao was being monitored at home 24 hours a day.

Huang Jiagui, the boss of Royal No. 1, was also taken away for investigation. The Fang family and the Chai family were also detained and investigated by people from the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

I heard that in order to get their sentences reduced as much as possible, people from both the Chai and Fang families even disclosed the manufacturers of fake cigarettes and alcohol as well as several downstream retailers.

This series of events were done extremely quickly and covertly, and the news has not leaked out yet, and the police have also done a good job of keeping it confidential.

They cannot make a big move for the time being, for fear of alerting the mayor, Wang Weicai.

He is the protective umbrella that has been protecting Huo Ruman, Huang Jiagui and others. He has a strong anti-reconnaissance awareness and does everything meticulously without leaving any handle.

This is also a headache for the provincial police. Just looking at the recording of the chat between Huo Ruman and Huang Jiagui is not enough to form a reason to take Wang Weicai away. They are also trying to pry open Huo Ruman's mouth in an attempt to obtain evidence that is unfavorable to Wang Weicai.

The police also promised that all the expenses Shen Shu spent in the process would be reimbursed after the case was over. This was indeed an unexpected surprise, after all, she was ready to lose everything.

At this point, Shen Shu and Fang Xin were finally able to put the case aside and concentrate on their careers.

She paid a high price to buy 25% of Yunshan Dairy's shares. Together with the 10% of scattered shares acquired previously, Fanxing Investment has now officially become the biggest decision-maker.

In the meeting room, employees from several relevant departments gathered to discuss how to manage Yunshan Dairy and how to cleanse the brand from the stains that had been maliciously smeared on it before and re-enter the domestic dairy market.

She had asked Fang Xin to form a strong public relations team earlier, and it finally came in handy at this moment.

The team provided a variety of solutions. After looking at them, Shen Shu and Fang Xin decided on a more reliable whitewashing plan.
