Chapter 837 - 818: No Cover-Up
As Qin Mobai was about to leave, Lou Xi suddenly thought of a very serious question.
"Mo Bai, have you seen Shen Ruozhuo in the past two days?"
"Why bring her up?" As soon as he heard Shen Ruozhuo’s name, Qin Mobai’s expression soured, revealing his genuine dislike for this woman.
"Yesterday, while I was still at that villa, I saw Shen Ruozhuo outside, arguing with Xi Siwei. Then I saw Xi Siwei knock Shen Ruozhuo out, so I wanted to ask if you’ve seen her."
"Haven’t seen her," Qin Mobai replied dismissively, "She and Xi Siwei are two of a kind, that’s their own internal strife, it’s none of our business."
Qin Mobai was thinking, if Shen Ruozhuo knows where Lou Xi is, why wouldn’t she tell me?
Since she didn’t inform him, Qin Mobai wouldn’t bother considering Shen Ruozhuo’s safety now, it’s none of his concern.
"Maybe they’ve had a falling out, and after all, Shen Ruozhuo is part of the Shen Family."
"You!" Qin Mobai didn’t know what to say to Lou Xi.
She could go all out criticizing Shen Ruozhuo, but once she realizes Shen might be in danger, she starts to worry.
"We can’t retaliate against her just because of what she did back then. If we do, we’ll become just like her. I don’t want to become that kind of person, so..."
"Alright, I’ll find someone to check it out. If she’s not there, there’s nothing else I can do." Qin Mobai eventually compromised.
Just like Lou Xi said, she doesn’t want to become the kind of person she dislikes, and that’s what Qin Mobai liked about Lou Xi.
After coaxing Lou Xi to sleep, Qin Mobai left the room, his brow furrowed all the while.
He called Su Lin, asking him to send someone to check the community on Guangfulin Road to see if Shen Ruozhuo was there.
Afterwards, Qin Mobai went to the police station with his lawyer.
On the way to the station, Qin Mobai received a call from Qin Sheng, who only said four words—
依法处置 (Handle according to the law).
In other words, Qin Sheng won’t protect Xi Siwei anymore just because he is his grandson, previously he didn’t want these issues to blow up mainly to prevent outsiders from seeing the ugliness within the Qin Family.
But after learning what happened after his coma, Qin Sheng realized continued protection would eventually destroy this family.
So, stripping away the Qin Family’s glamorous veneer to reveal the ugliness serves as a warning to everyone in the Qin Family—
There will be no protection for anyone damaging the Qin Family’s reputation.
The car drove for half an hour, arriving at the Nancheng Public Security Bureau, where Xi Siwei was detained on charges of illegal detention, economic crimes, fraud, among others.
When Qin Mobai arrived, reporters who had been waiting outside the station swarmed in, blocking his car.
The Qin Family’s internal conflict, front-page news for sure, guaranteed to boost sales!
The car was blocked, unable to move an inch, while the reporters held up digital cameras, snapping photos and filming Qin Mobai inside the car.
"President Qin, I’ll go down and chase them off," the driver turned back to Qin Mobai and said.
"No need, I’ll go down," Qin Mobai straightened his tie and said calmly.
After speaking, Qin Mobai placed his hand on the door handle and opened the door.
The slightly opened car door made the reporters immediately step back, creating enough space for Qin Mobai to get out, needing to interview the person involved to have juicy content on tomorrow’s front page!
