Chapter 54 Retaliation So Swift! Planning to Seal Off Su Corporation?
In Cloud City, Guo Li, Ye Fan, and Wang Fugui left and returned to the Su Corporation, where the contract signing was almost complete.
Seeing Ye Fan return, Su Yixue embraced him affectionately, "Husband! Thank you!"
Su Yixue wasn't certain whether Ye Fan had truly awakened or was still in a foolish state, but one thing she was sure of.
The success of today's Su Family press conference owed much to Ye Fan. Although it was Wang Fugui, Guo Li, Yu Linglong, and Divine Doctor Lei who appeared in public, would they have made a move without Ye Fan?
Hearing the word "husband," Ye Fan's heart also twitched.
Had this little girl Yixue finally been completely conquered by him?
"Hehe! Yixue, my wife, you are my wife. I promised Grandpa, I would protect you all… I will definitely work hard to take down those bad guys!" Ye Fan said while also glancing at Yu Linglong not far away.
Yu Linglong looked at Ye Fan thoughtfully, considering his unique physique that allowed one to enjoy the warmth of his nourishing energy for training, which was simply miraculous.
If Ye Fan really had awakened, and his monstrous talent came into play again, how terrifying would that be?
Breaking through Martial Venerable? Martial Emperor? Even reaching the level of Martial Saint was not out of the question!
At that time, who could stop the Qilin Child of the Ye Family?
Moreover, Lei Qianjue, as the Great Xia Medical Saint, had said something yesterday that made Yu Linglong somewhat suspicious. Lei Qianjue had always been very precise and wouldn't share ambiguous information, but when talking about Ye Fan's condition, he was vague, mentioning only the possibility of Ye Fan awakening, without specifying a time.
According to Lei Qianjue's usual style, it would either be possible for Ye Fan to awaken or not at all!
Such equivocal talk… unless, it was the instruction of someone even more formidable, deliberately spoken this way?
Considering this, Yu Linglong's gaze at Ye Fan sharpened: could it be that her husband had truly awakened?
Yu Linglong had heard that five years ago, Ye Fan was known throughout the Southwest as the Young Medical Immortal. In terms of medical skills, he was said to have already surpassed Lei Qianjue. If Ye Fan had awakened, it was entirely possible that he had used his medical skills to subjugate Lei Qianjue, who was now helping to cover up certain truths.
As a Great Xia Three-Star Valkyrie, Yu Linglong was not only powerful in combat but also highly intelligent. Her speculation had nearly unveiled the truth.
Ye Fan felt Yu Linglong's piercing gaze and his heart skipped a beat!
His eldest wife was not so easily fooled; it seems he had to be more cautious around Yu Linglong in the future. Otherwise, if Yu Linglong found out he was no longer a fool, would she still marry him?
"Distinguished seniors and friends, I am extremely grateful for your assistance in the smooth convening of today's Su Family press conference! It's also lunchtime, and I have arranged a banquet. Please, everyone, join us for a simple meal!" Su Yixue warmly invited everyone, while Su Honghai and Su Minghao, seeing so many influential figures, didn't even know how to greet them and just kept grinning stupidly.
They also didn't know whether the Su Family's decision was right or wrong?
Becoming so deeply entwined with the Ye Family was bound to invite retaliation from the Ye Family's adversaries, and it wouldn't end well!
But they didn't anticipate that the retaliation would come this fast.
Su Yixue was greeting everyone present, just about to leave the Su Corporation, when suddenly, the sound of police sirens blared outside.
A group of uniformed personnel rapidly infiltrated the venue.
"I'm sorry… we have received a report that there has been an illegal gathering of funds here, and there's suspicion of false advertising of fake drugs. We need the person in charge to come back with us for investigation! In addition, the company's account funds have been legally frozen, pending investigation. Once cleared, they will be immediately unfrozen!"
The operation was a joint action by the police department, the drug regulatory authority, and the enforcement team.
Boom!
The sudden news struck like a thunderclap. "Officer, have you made a mistake? The Su Corporation is engaging in normal business activities. How can you suspect us of illegally gathering funds? Those funds are the deposits paid by our clients for their orders..."
Su Yixue was on the verge of tears. Today, the new drug release had been a success, and she had managed to attract so many new distributors and secure such a significant amount of funding. Su Yixue felt elated, as this meant expanding production wouldn't be an issue at all.
Tens of billions would be more than enough for her to do many things!
But suddenly, so many officers in uniforms had sealed off her company and frozen the accounts—what was she to do now?
You must realize, not to mention the delay in production, once the news got out, it would be a devastating blow to the Su Corporation! Would those martial arts merchants who wanted to partner with the Su Corporation dare to continue their cooperation?
The leading officer looked at Su Yixue with a hint of bitterness and said, "Miss Su, we really have no choice. We are all just following orders!"
Actually, everyone understood that it wasn't really about the Su Corporation's own business, but rather the ripples from the continuing struggle with the Ye Family and those rivals.
Otherwise, who would bother investigating a business conglomerate, and move so swiftly at that?
"You..." Su Yixue wanted to say more, when Ye Fan gave Guo Li a signal with his eyes. Guo Li quickly stepped forward and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry! They are just investigating. Let them do their investigation. With us here, nothing will happen to the Su Corporation!"
Both Guo Li and Ye Fan understood that these minor officials were just the front-line enforcers.
To solve the problem at hand, they must find the key figure behind the scenes!
"Miss Su, please cooperate with us and have the core members of your company come with us," the officer leading the team said with difficulty. But since he had orders from above, he had no choice but to comply.
They wanted to take Su Yixue away?
Guo Li frowned and glanced at Ye Fan. Read further on m-vl-em-pyr
That was a bit too much, wasn't it?
How could the big brother possibly endure this?
"How dare you!" Yu Linglong was also infuriated, "What do you mean by this? In broad daylight, you dare to just capture someone. Try to take anybody with me standing right here!"
With a wave of her hand, Yu Linglong's subordinates moved in, with guns already drawn!
Swish, swish!
The officers who had arrived were also prepared and quickly pulled out their weapons. The two sides immediately faced off against each other.
The atmosphere at the scene instantly grew tense, a major battle on the verge of breaking out!
Everyone understood the gravity of the situation. If it were just the company's accounts being frozen, there would still be a chance for the Su Corporation to recover. But if Su Yixue were to be taken away as well, gaining commercial credibility for the Su Corporation afterwards would become very difficult.
This also meant that the Ye Family and those opponents' confrontation had failed!
Ye Fan furrowed his brow in thought. Indeed, he had many methods at his disposal: the authority of the Xuanwu Battle Zone's Heavenly King and the yet-to-be-activated support of the Tianji Pavilion. Any one of these could make the other party back down.
But if he revealed his hand too soon now, then the real enemies targeting the Ye Family would not dare to show themselves!
"What's going on? What's happening?" While Ye Fan was still pondering, several military trucks stopped at the entrance to the Su Corporation, and at once, a platoon of camouflaged soldiers armed and ready jumped down.
The leader was none other than Major Guo Fei, who was conducting patrol training. Passing by the Su Corporation, he had just seen Ye Fan surrounded by a group of people and immediately led his soldiers to charge over, surrounding the officers in uniform.
"They are the bad guys, they want to take my wife away..." Ye Fan, seeing Guo Fei, immediately brightened up and spoke to Guo Fei.
Yesterday, when he saved Xuan Yufei's father in the hospital, Guo Fei had recognized the Xuanwu Heavenly King's Command Token. While Major Guo Fei's position might not allow him to do much otherwise, ensuring that Su Yixue and others weren't taken away shouldn't be a big issue!
