She abandoned her husband first, then her children, and was ecstatic after the divorce.

An assistant walked in and reported in a low voice.

"President Fu, the matter has been taken care of. Su Mian was attacked on the street, but she doesn't seem to be seriously injured."

Fu Xiuheng nodded slightly, a barely perceptible sneer curling at the corner of his mouth.

"Hmph, this is just a small warning to them. If they still don't know what's good for them and continue to oppose me, then don't blame me for being impolite."

Lu An was organizing the documents beside him, his hands trembling slightly.

He looked up at his assistant and saw him looking smug, as if he was proud of having done something for Fu Xiuheng. He couldn't help but glare at him.

The assistant shrank back, not daring to look Lu An in the eye.

Although Fu Xiuheng is his boss, his direct superior, Assistant Lu, is also someone to be feared.

He dared not take credit any further and hurriedly left.

Lu An turned to look at Fu Xiuheng, who had a calm expression, and felt somewhat helpless.

Fu Xiuheng suffered a great deal of humiliation during his trip to Yuncheng. He not only got a cold shoulder from Lin Qingran, but his cooperation with Shenghai Group also fell through completely.

Especially Su Mian, whose arrogance and domineering nature made Fu Xiuheng unable to tolerate her any longer.

Lu An advised Fu Xiuheng not to act impulsively and do anything outrageous.

But what's the point of stopping Fu Xiuheng if he wants to do something?

Sure enough, without his knowledge, Fu Xiuheng had already instructed others to do it.

Now that Su Mian has been attacked, Lu An is not only terrified, feeling that Fu Xiuheng has recently lost his mind, but also feels a chill in his heart.

He was, after all, Fu Xiuheng's special assistant, and had followed him through thick and thin all these years.

However, Fu Xiuheng proved with his actions that Lu An's position could be easily replaced if he wanted to.

At this moment, Lu An suddenly began to understand Lin Qingran a little.

Being around someone as ruthless and unpredictable as Fu Xiuheng can indeed be suffocating at all times.

But in the end, he couldn't help but speak up.

"Mr. Fu, should I help you clean up the mess?"

Fu Xiuheng glanced at him indifferently. "What? Are you worried about them finding out about me?"

Su Mian, a mere senior manager of Shenghai Group, dared to challenge me. This is just a small lesson for him.

Even if Su Mian had the greatest courage, now that he had seen the real deal, he wouldn't dare to directly challenge him.

"I just feel..."

He felt that the Sheng Hai Group was a very complex entity, unlike other companies that Fu Xiuheng had encountered, and that he would not submit to the Sheng Hai Group.

During my visit to Lu'an, I could feel that everyone in Sheng Hai Group, from leaders to junior employees, was working together towards a common goal and was not easily threatened by others.

I'm afraid Su Mian won't let this go easily, and even if she doesn't pursue it, the others in Shenghai Group won't accept this loss.

For some reason, Lu An had a bad feeling.

But after hesitating for a long time, he didn't continue speaking.

Because he could clearly sense a hint of impatience in Fu Xiuheng's expression.

Meanwhile, Su Mian had already been sent to the hospital for treatment.

Lin Qingran, on the other hand, cooperated with Su Mian in the investigation.

Fu Rongrong's words had already caught the attention of the police.

No matter how hard Lin Qingran tried to hide it, she couldn't.

So not only Lin Qingran, but also Fu Rongrong were taken away for investigation.

In this way, the truth hidden beneath Jiang Jiuge's facade can no longer be concealed.

"You mean, you are actually the de facto controlling shareholder of Shenghai Group, and you had a falling out with the president of Fu's Group some time ago?"

"Mm." Lin Qingran nodded silently.

The investigating police officers exchanged incredulous glances.

Sheng Hai Group is a well-known name in Yuncheng, and the mysterious boss behind it is not someone that just anyone can meet.

They never imagined that the mysterious mastermind behind the scenes was actually the adopted daughter of internationally renowned painter Jiang Yuanbai.

The lead investigator couldn't help but admire her, saying, "Ms. Jiang truly deserves to be called a role model for contemporary women."

Lin Qingran gave a wry smile. "Thank you for the compliment."

The recorder next to him cleared his throat, reminding his colleague not to discuss unrelated topics.

The investigator said seriously, "That lady just mentioned the president of the Fu Group. May I ask what exactly happened between you two?"

Left with no other choice, Lin Qingran could only recount to the police the entire process of Fu Xiuheng's visit to Shenghai Group to discuss the project that day.

Although it was only Lin Qingran's side of the story and there was no evidence, it was enough to surprise the police.

The Fu Group is a powerful and influential group that has always looked down on others. Yet, for the sake of a single project, they have organized and planned to harm people.

This is downright shady!

"So you suspect that he injured one of your employees?"

“I’m not sure,” Lin Qingran said.

"I can only tell you what I know."

The investigator nodded. "Okay, we understand the details. We are also investigating the person who harmed your employee. You can go back and wait for news."

Lin Qingran nodded silently and slowly stood up.

As soon as she left the room, she saw Fu Rongrong standing across the corridor.

Fu Rongrong looked utterly dejected, her gaze towards Lin Qingran filled with disbelief.

Lin Qingran sighed helplessly.

Lately, she has really felt that some things can't be kept in her mind and kept going over in her head. As long as the thought pops into her head, the things she doesn't want to see happen will always come true.

For example, shortly before Su Mian's accident, she had just considered not telling Fu Rongrong her true background.

"Sister Qingran, I feel like I'm dreaming." The two stood outside the police station, Fu Rongrong's face full of worry.

"They actually told me that you are the president of Shenghai Group."

Fu Rongrong turned to look at Lin Qingran.

She already had the answer in her heart, but she just didn't dare to confirm it.

But when she saw Lin Qingran's gaze darting around, Fu Rongrong could no longer remain calm.

"You really are something else?"

Lin Qingran silently took out a pack of cigarettes from her bag, lit one, and put it in her mouth.

After a long pause, she spoke in a somewhat heavy tone.

"I didn't mean to hide it from you, it's just... it's just that too many things have happened recently, and I haven't had a suitable opportunity to tell you."

"Qingran, are you stupid?" Fu Rongrong said, somewhat angrily.

"Do you really think I'm the kind of person who would collude with my brother? Do you think that if you tell me your true identity, I'll just turn around and tell my brother?"
