Chapter 745: Chapter 745: The Fish Has Taken the Bait
Looking into Qiu Ruoxi’s phoenix eyes and the fierce light they revealed, Wang Shengli still had no intention of backing down!
Qiu Ruoxi was Ye Xunhuan’s wife, after all, and Ye Xunhuan had quite a background. If anything happened to Qiu Ruoxi under his watch, then he, Wang Shengli, couldn’t escape blame!
"Miss Qiu, I’m merely following the rules here, I hope you won’t make this difficult for me!" Wang Shengli said to Qiu Ruoxi with an expressionless face.
"Wang Shengli, you..."
"Take Miss Qiu back to the police station!" Wang Shengli immediately ordered to those beside him.
If these people were really coming for Ye Xunhuan, and if they failed to tackle Ye Xunhuan and turned to target Qiu Ruoxi instead, then the police station was undoubtedly one of the safest places!
After all, that was the government’s territory; you’d have to be daring to start a fight inside a police station, that would be outright defiant!
So Wang Shengli wanted to bring Qiu Ruoxi to the police station; even if his guess was wrong, he could simply apologize to her later.
Anyway, now he, Wang Shengli, was like a stubborn mule—absolutely resolute!
"Let’s see who dares to touch me!" Qiu Ruoxi shouted coldly, her phoenix eyes flashing menacingly as she scanned the approaching police officers.
For some reason, upon seeing Qiu Ruoxi’s fierce and lethal gaze, these officers all felt immense pressure and instantly lowered their heads, not daring to meet her eyes.
Seeing this scene unfold before him, Wang Shengli sighed inwardly with helplessness and said lightly, "What are you all waiting for, take her away!"
"I, Wang Shengli, will take full responsibility if anything happens!"
With Wang Shengli’s command, the police officers had no choice but to steel themselves and move towards Qiu Ruoxi.
Qiu Ruoxi also realized that today Wang Shengli was set on taking her to the police station, determined to not give up until he did so.
"Fine, I’ll come with you, but I need to make a phone call!"
"You may!" Wang Shengli did not overly press Qiu Ruoxi.
After all, his intention wasn’t to go against Qiu Ruoxi but to protect her, so there was no need to strain their relationship further!
Therefore, when Qiu Ruoxi said she needed to make a call, Wang Shengli agreed without any hesitation.
Qiu Ruoxi’s piercing gaze drilled into Wang Shengli’s before she took out her phone and dialed Wang’s mother at home!
About seven or eight seconds later, the call connected!
As soon as the call went through, Wang’s mother’s concerned voice immediately came through, "Miss, what happened? I saw you and your husband rushing out of the villa..."
"Wang’s mother, go find Grandpa Song Yan and let him take my call. I need to speak with him!"
Wang’s mother, having looked after Qiu Ruoxi for many years, immediately noticed something was off in Qiu Ruoxi’s voice, which sounded very anxious and uneasy.
"Okay, Miss, just wait, don’t worry, I’ll go find the old master right away..."
Then Wang’s mother hurried out of her bedroom and ran up to the guest room where Song Yan was staying.
Upon arriving at Song Yan’s guest room, Wang’s mother quickly knocked on the door, "Uncle Song Yan, Uncle Song Yan..."
The next moment, the door opened, and Song Yan stepped out from the room.
Seeing Wang’s mother’s flustered face, Song Yan said softly, "Wang’s mother, what’s happened?"
"Uncle Song Yan, it’s the miss’s call, she needs to talk to you!"
Saying this, Wang’s mother handed the phone to Song Yan.
Song Yan took the phone and, placing it to his ear, said quietly, "Ruoxi, what’s the matter?"
"Grandpa Song Yan, my company’s warehouse caught fire, and I’m here with Xunhuan to take a look..." Qiu Ruoxi quickly explained the situation to Song Yan in a rapid tone!
After listening to Qiu Ruoxi’s brief summary, Song Yan’s face instantly darkened.
"Let the police chief with you take the phone!"
On the other end of the line, after hearing Song Yan’s words, Qiu Ruoxi directly said to Wang Shengli, "Chief Wang Shengli, please take this call!"
Wang Shengli looked at Qiu Ruoxi with a puzzled face, but he didn’t say anything more and took the phone.
"Hello..."
The next moment, Wang Shengli’s expression immediately became odd, occasionally glancing at Qiu Ruoxi!
"Yes!" Wang Shengli said emphatically, "Rest assured, I will definitely do it and will not disappoint your expectations, Elder!"
After that, Wang Shengli hung up the phone.
Once the call was ended, Wang Shengli immediately said to the people around him, "What are you standing around for? Take Miss Qiu away!"
"Wang Shengli, do you have any idea..."
"Miss Qiu, I’m just doing my duty. If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me!" Wang Shengli said with great assertiveness, "You can arrest me, but you need to consider the consequences of the arrest carefully!"
"You..."
"Take her away!"
Seeing Wang Shengli’s assertiveness, the other policemen didn’t dare to hesitate anymore and stepped forward, saying to Qiu Ruoxi, "Miss Qiu, please don’t make things difficult for us!"
No matter what other identities Qiu Ruoxi might have, just the status of being the president of Huangtu Group was enough to make them feel overwhelmed!
Huangtu Group was the star enterprise of Jiangzhong City, highly regarded by countless magnates, even throughout the entire Zhonghai Province.
Arresting Qiu Ruoxi was no trivial matter!
Qiu Ruoxi’s eyes seemed to shoot out searing flames, enough to pulverize Wang Shengli to dust.
While filled with anger, Qiu Ruoxi was also filled with confusion and incomprehension. What exactly had Song Yan said to Wang Shengli to make him so assertive all of a sudden?
"Fine, I’ll come with you!" Qiu Ruoxi grimaced and said through clenched teeth.
Then, Qiu Ruoxi, surrounded by a cluster of policemen, left the place.
However, on her way out, she glanced at Qin Muge.
After understanding Qiu Ruoxi’s look, Qin Muge’s heart was filled with bitterness.
Where could she go to find Ye Xunhuan?
Besides, with the current mess at Huangtu Group and Qiu Ruoxi being taken away, someone had to stay behind and handle the situation, right?
Although Qin Muge also very much wanted to find Ye Xunhuan, where should she look?
Qin Muge had a look of bewilderment on her face.
Not long after Qiu Ruoxi had been taken away by the police, a nondescript young man who had been watching the excitement slowly walked out from the crowd.
Stepping out of the crowd, the man took out his phone and dialed a number.
The call was answered in an instant.
"How did it go?"
"The fish has taken the bait, and the marshal is missing!" the man answered immediately.
"Did you leave with the police?"
"Yes!"
"Which route did they take?"
"They should be on Dongming Road!"
"Okay, withdraw immediately. Don’t stay there any longer to avoid danger!"
After hanging up the phone, the man looked up at the recently extinguished fire and slowly formed a cold, bloodthirsty smile on his lips.
The next moment, the man turned and left the scene as if he had never been there at all, and no one even noticed him!
