Chapter 773: Chapter 671: Assisting the Investigation (Please subscribe!)_1
Chu Wang didn’t understand the meaning behind Tang Qing’s words, assuming he was no longer wanted around.
He glared at Hu Li again. How dare she lay a finger on his money! What audacity!
Chu Wang’s gaze bore into Tang Qing, as if trying to memorize his face. His anger eventually transformed into cold calm. He said indifferently, "My young friend, fortunes change, don’t they? I look forward to the day we meet again. Until then."
Having said that,
He signaled to the eight men around the corner.
This time, the fighter didn’t stop them. He stepped aside, and the skinny tall man was carried out of the studio by the other men.
Ready to get in the car and leave.
Before he got into the car.
Chu Wang looked back at the studio, his gaze filled with ferocity.
Tang Qing didn’t care. He even waved and smiled at Chu Wang as if they were old friends. If he’d had a handkerchief in his hand, it would definitely look like he was seeing him off, and that was exactly what Tang Qing intended.
This "goodbye" gesture provoked Chu Wang’s wrath. Who are you to wave farewell to him? A surge of annoyance lingered in his chest. He huffed and got into his car.
Then, the long vehicle left.
Watching Chu Wang leave,
The "spectators" behind didn’t know how to describe their feelings.
Their chairman was indeed a troublemaker, but it warmed their hearts somewhat. This protection made everyone feel safe and a sense of belonging. Not many bosses would step in and stand up against usurers on their behalf, would they?
The others thought the matter was over.
But Zheng Lin knew there would be a lot more to come.
As expected.
Tang Qing allowed Li Xizhao and the others to return to work as usual.
Only Shen Yi and Zheng Lin were left with him.
He called them over to the corner of the entrance, and with a smile, he said to Shen Yi, "Brother Shen, it’s your turn now."
Although Shen Yi was intrigued, he didn’t know what Tang Qing was implying. He still asked, "Boss Tang, could you please clarify? Otherwise, I’m afraid I might not fully understand your intentions." He calmly deployed his governmental way of speaking.
Tang Qing shook his head. This man was certainly a product of a bureaucratic family. He spoke on such a high level. "This guy is involved in usury, and he’s committed other crimes. Let him cooperate with the police investigation."
"Oh? An investigation, okay, I will contact the Public Security Bureau and check if this man has any prior convictions." That’s reality. Shen Yi didn’t have the authority to instruct the police to arbitrarily detain someone.
What mattered most was,
He had never bullied anyone using his power before.
"His name is Chu Wang, the boss of Wangtian Asset Management Company. He’s mainly involved in usury and entertainment industry. He is suspected in numerous cases of personal injury and forced prostitution. I’ve also heard that he’s involved in a few murder cases." Tang Qing said slowly.
Zheng Lin’s and Shen Yi’s faces changed.
They thought Tang Qing was just going to teach Chu Wang a lesson.
But now it seemed like he wanted to completely ruin him.
Murder.
And not just one.
Chu Wang definitely wouldn’t be able to walk free.
If the situation was severe, he might end up on death row.
"Boss... Boss Tang, is this true?" Shen Yi stumbled over his words. Such serious accusations couldn’t just be thrown around without clear evidence, despite having connections, this matter was of grave concern.
Tang Qing nodded.
"Yes, let him go in. After he’s arrested, someone will provide evidence." Chu Wang offended him, and he’s a troublemaker. Tang Qing didn’t want him causing harm to others.
Since being reborn,
He had almost no problems with life or death around him.
Only Lei Peng’s family was an exception. However, his son, or rather, adoptive son, had become a vegetable. No blood relation existed, so Tang spared the Lei Family back then. Looking back, he didn’t regret his decision.
The Lei’s lived a good life and showed no signs of revenge.
But as for Chu Wang,
There was no need for him to continue existing.
Shen Yi hesitated for a moment, but considering Zheng Lin and the fact that Tang Qing was his boss, recalling Chai Ren, he knew he had no choice. He took out his phone, flipped through for a while before he found the police chief’s number in Shanghai.
Following what Tang Qing said.
Shen Yi spoke with conviction.
After hanging up the call, Shen Yi gave a wry smile, "Done, Boss Tang. The guy on the other line is aware of Chu Wang, just didn’t have the evidence. He said they’d start the arrest immediately. Just hope I don’t get reprimanded by my dad once I get back."
"Brother Shen, why that look? We are ridding the people of an evil, a deed of great merit indeed." Tang Qing laughed lightly. Shen Yi seemed unfamiliar with this kind of thing, he looked quite unnatural, even his words were stuttering.
"Alright, it’s over now, let’s go back and watch the movie." Tang Qing said. After saying that, he went back to the set. Watching their performances, he suddenly felt that being an actor was difficult, being watched by so many while having to act naturally.
Things are tough.
Zheng Lin didn’t think much of a random passer-by’s life or death. What did it have to do with him?
However, he found it exceptionally thrilling.
Even more so for Shen Yi.
...
In the makeup section,
Hu Li was hugging a backpack containing three hundred thousand RMB, unsure of what to do next.
"Sister Hu Li, don’t worry. It’s a lawful society now, they wouldn’t dare to act out." Lin Jiaxue was trying to comfort her.
Hu Li laughs bitterly.
Lin Jiaxue was a naive little girl who saw the world as a beautiful place. But Hu Li knew better. People like Chu Wang were relentless predators, and she was stuck with a hot potato.
"What should I do?"
Her heart pounded with nervousness. She glanced at Tang Qing, who seemed to be enjoying himself in the distance. The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became. 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘱𝘶𝑏.𝘤𝘰𝑚

Elsewhere,
Chu Wang was stewing in his car.
He had lost significant face today. He never thought he’d be pushed into a corner by a kid.
This predicament was all thanks to his subordinates. These people were useless. All they did was stir up trouble. Every time they screwed up, he had to step in to clear the mess or else no one would respect him.
Chu Wang was considering retiring from this line of work.
It was too risky.
One misstep and he’d be done for.
Thinking about this,
Chu Wang decided to retire. He had enough money, he could enjoy a lavish life abroad. His presence in the domestic scene caused him too much stress.
However, before that, he needed to teach Hu Li a lesson. His money wasn’t easy to snatch.
With a huff,
He and his lackeys returned to their office.
Chu Wang’s office was located on the top floor of a five-story building. A businessman had pawned it to him as high-interest collateral and hadn’t been able to repay the loan. The man eventually threw himself off a building. In the end, his daughter was forced to ’repay the debt’ in Chu Wang’s company.
Thinking about this,
Chu Wang planned to bring in more henchmen to serve him. He needed to dispel his fears.
Calling his subordinates into his office,
"Bang..." Chu Wang stomped on the skinny man’s stomach.
Today’s debacle was all his fault. He insisted on blocking the entrance of the film studio this month when they were due to pay next month. This resulted in Chu Wang to lose face in public. As for the money, he was confident he could recover it.
"Boss, I was wrong. I was blinded, I deserve to be punished, I am guilty. I..." The skinny man knelt on the ground, repeatedly slapping himself.
Chu Wang was about to show off,
He grabbed a feather duster from the wall,
Intending to punish the culprits himself.
Suddenly, a figure appeared at the door that immediately made Chu Wang’s knees weak. The uniform the figure wore was something Chu Wang and his ilk instinctively feared.
"Chu Wang, I am from the city bureau. Please come with us to assist in an investigation."
"Can I... Can I make a phone call?" Chu Wang stuttered. He worried if the call Tang Qing had made was that fast.
The lead officer shook his head, "I’m sorry, but you are not allowed to make any calls right now. And the rest of you, we’ve received a report about illegal debt collection activities. You also need to come with us to assist in the investigation."
In the country,
High-interest lending isn’t illegal,
But violent debt collection, causing physical harm, psychological harm, and disturbing the peace is illegal.
Chu Wang hesitated.
Two policemen walked in.
In the end, Chu Wang couldn’t make the call because, after considering, he realized that even if he was charged with violent debt collection, it wouldn’t be a big deal, just a detention at most. Plus, he wasn’t the one who went to collect the debt.
So,
Chu Wang was taken to the city bureau.
