A Warm Wedding and A New Bride of Young Master Lu Chapter 292 - Huge Fine

Chapter 292 Huge Fine

On the next day.

The headlines of the major newspapers were all the same, as if they had agreed beforehand, and reported that the Lu Enterprises would be heavily fined.

According to the report, after investigations by the police and the tax bureau, Lu Enterprises’s tax evasion was basically true, and it was going to be ma.s.sively fined.

It was originally speculated that it would be difficult for Lu Boyan to escape from being imprisoned if Lu Enterprises was proved to be guilty.

In fact, people who were punished by the law were the director of the finance department of the company and several employees. They took all the responsibilities and Lu Boyan skipped all of that.

In that regard, questions arose quickly.

Some people said that Lu Boyan bribed or threatened the employees of the finance department to have them take the blame.

Some also said that Lu Boyan used special means to go through the department and pa.s.sed the buck to the employees.

In short, no one believed that Lu Boyan was innocent.

When seeing the news in the newspaper while eating breakfast, Su Jianan and Lu Boyan were exceptionally calm.

After breakfast, Aunt Liu secretly inquired from Su Jianan, and said firmly, “I don’t believe that the young master would evade taxes, and he would certainly not let the employees plead guilty in his stead!”

Su Jianan just smiled and said, “Then, you can believe that he’s able to handle this matter well.”

Although, it would be difficult.

After the collapse accident, there was a wave of checking-out, and many of Lu Enterprises’ projects and cooperation were put on hold or affected. The company’s capital operation had also encountered difficulties.

If the tax evasion was taken seriously, the huge fine would also be a burden. Lu Enterprises was going to meet a real financial crisis.

That was what Kang Ruicheng wanted Su Jianan to wait and see.

On the way to work, Lu Boyan told Su Jianan, “Kang Ruicheng framed Lu Enterprises’ with tax evasion to send me to prison.”

Su Jianan paused, “… he failed?”

“But he did not fail either.” Lu Boyan said, “He just didn’t expect the chief financial officer and his staff to take full responsibility.”

Su Jianan understood.

Kang Ruicheng’s original plan was to fish in troubled waters after Lu Boyan was sent to prison, for Lu Enterprises to lose its control.

According to his logical thinking, he probably thought that the director of the finance department would be like the contractor of Fanting Garden, trying his best to s.h.i.+rk the responsibility of the accident and pouring all the dirty water on Lu Boyan.

At the moment, Lu Boyan bore the hopes of the chief financial officer and several of the financial personnel—they exchanged their reputation and freedom for Lu Boyan’s safety.

Lu Boyan had to win that battle. Otherwise, it was not only his career he would lose, but the trust from his employees.

When he arrived at the police station, some reporters recognized that it was Lu Boyan’s car when it just stopped. A large number of media reporters rushed over and quickly surrounded the two sides of the back seat.

All kinds of problems were bombarding her like cannonb.a.l.l.s. Su Jianan just pretended to hear nothing about them and smiled to Lu Boyan. She said, “I gotta go.”

The bodyguard had separated the reporters from the road. Lu Boyan nodded and opened the door for Su Jianan. Su Jianan took the opportunity and kissed him on his lips. He gently touched her head and watched her get out.

As soon as she exited the car, she was almost drowned in the sounds of the shutters and reporters.

“Mrs. Lu, it was said that Mr. Lu has escaped from the law by some special means. Do you have anything to say about that?”

“Mrs. Lu, Lu Enterprises are facing a huge fine. Coupled with its current situation, some people have a.n.a.lyzed that it will soon have a financial crisis, has Mr. Lu told you how he will respond?”

“Mrs. Lu…”

Su Jianan did not answer any questions. She went straight to the police station and saw Lu Boyan smiling at her when she turned back, then his car slowly left.

She stood and watched him go.

It was not the fancy Lu Enterprises that Lu Boyan was going to return to.

How he would deal with the financial crisis, Lu Boyan did not mention it to her, and she would not understand it. She only knew that it would be a hard battle for Lu Boyan.

The only things she could do was to give him companions.h.i.+p, and not making trouble.

When Su Jianan entered the office, Jiang Shaokai asked, “How could this be?”

Obviously, the young master Jiang could not believe that Lu Boyan would do a thing like evading taxes.

Su Jianan shook her head and didn’t want to talk about it anymore. She asked, “Is there any news?”

Jiang Shaokai also shook his head. He said, “Last night, I asked people to investigate overnight. I only found that the driver of the accident was called Hong Qing. After the incident, he took the initiative to report to the police and truthfully accounted for the incident. The investigation was also very cooperative, and there was a problem with the brakes. He was only sentenced to three years.

“That is to say, Hong Qing was released from prison 11 years ago. But after leaving prison, he disappeared. I don’t know where he went, and could not find any trace of him. Now I’m looking for the people with the same name, but we can’t pin too much hope on that.”

Su Jianan sat down and felt upset with her shoulders down. “It is reasonable that we could not find Hong Qing. Fourteen years ago, Kang Ruicheng was only 20 years old. He was already so ruthless and well planned. How could he not think that Hong Qing would endanger him in the future? Maybe Hong Qing was settled by Kang Ruicheng after he was released from prison.”

“Not necessarily.” Jiang Shaokai said, “In fact, Kang Ruicheng was still young when Kang Chengtian was dead, he was unable to control the family’s business, and the police had been dismantling their power in City A. Later, Kang Ruicheng went to the Golden Triangle area.

“Hong Qing was released from prison three years later. Even if Kang Ruicheng wanted to kill him, it would be beyond his reach. On the contrary, it is more likely that Hong Qing realized that Kang Ruicheng would kill him sooner or later, so he changed his name and concealed his own traces. It means that we also have a chance of finding Hong Qing.”

Then, Jiang Shaokai handed a copy to Su Jianan. He said, “This is a photo taken of Hong Qing when he was in prison. No way to get the original, I made two copies.”

“The copy is enough.” Su Jianan put it in her bag and said, “Thank you.”

Jiang Shaokai sighed with a very helpless expression. “Let me hear you say thank you again, and I will not help you,” after that, he shook his head, “In fact, this is the only thing I can help you with.”

Su Jianan knew the meaning behind Jiang Shaokai’s words. In fact, a financial crisis befalling on such a huge group like Lu Enterprises, no one could save it besides Lu Boyan, not to mention a medical examiner like Jiang Shaokai.

Before leaving work in the afternoon, Su Jianan went online to browse the news. It was true that articles about Lu Enterprises’ huge fines were still hot.

The news also reported that the family members of the financial staff were reluctant to believe that their family members would become criminals. They even believed what people said online—Lu Boyan pushed the crime onto the employees through special means in order to keep himself safe.

Those family members followed the owner who wanted to check out, and jointly went to the entrance of Lu Enterprises. In the morning, they blocked his way to the company and asked Lu Boyan to stand up and plead guilty.

But Lu Boyan did not respond.

Su Jianan shut down the computer, left the police station from the back door. She did not see Uncle Qian’s car, but saw the media reporters and… the family members.

She recognized that those people were members of the finance department’s employees, because she just saw their photos in the news.

The reporters and their families rushed up, as if they were going to tear Su Jianan up.

Su Jianan wanted to return to the police station, but her movements were not as fast as the media and the family members. Soon, she was surrounded.

Last time she was. .h.i.t on her forehead in the morgue by family members who had lost their loved one, and the bruises had not yet disappeared. Su Jianan was still afraid of them and she could only protect herself as much as possible, but how could she fight with so many people?

The reporter’s microphones surrounded her, accompanied by questions and insults from the family members.

Family members: “With a wife working at the police station, Lu Boyan can get away with everything. You will have retribution!”

Reporter: “Mrs. Lu, did Mr. Lu escape the legal sanctions by special means?”

Family members: “It’s definitely related to this woman! Reporter, you ask, you just ask, let me see if she can answer with a clear conscience!”

“Mrs. Lu…”

When Su Jianan was thinking about how to break through, the door behind her was pushed open, and Jiang Shaokai rushed out.

The well-educated Jiang Shaokai, who was a gentleman of style, did not hide his anger at the moment. He pushed the reporters away violently and pulled Su Jianan out of the crowd. There was a camera pointing at him. He glared at the cameraman and pushed the device away, shouting, “Stop it!”

“Sir, are you a policeman?” The reporter asked sharply, “do you think it’s good to push us media workers like this?”

Jiang Shaokai looked at the reporter who asked the question. He replied, “I am not a policeman, but a special medical examiner hired by the city bureau. I have nothing to do with the police after I took off the uniform. So I can even punch you, not to mention to push you, and you can report this as you like.”

“Mrs. Lu,” the reporter said, acting as if he had found a juicy topic for gossip. “this gentleman looks very worried about you. What is your relations.h.i.+p with him?”

When Su Jianan just wanted to explain, Jiang Shaokai had already guarded her to return to the police station. He said with a terrible tone, “Just ignore them!”

Su Jianan could tell that the young master Jiang was really angry.

Back at the office, she smiled at Jiang Shaokai. “I am fine.”

Jiang Shaokai glanced at her, “I want to know if you would still smile like this if you were hit again like the last time!”

Su Jianan subconsciously touched her bruised forehead, sighing. She said, “The back door was discovered, and the front door must have been blocked. How to get out of here?”

Jiang Shaokai raised his lips. “I have a way!”

Captain Yan’s car was parked in the underground garage. Jiang Shaokai switched their cars and took Su Jianan from the underground garage.

In fact, there were reporters stuck in the garage door, but the car hung the license of the police, and Su Jianan hid in the pa.s.senger seat. So no one doubted. The reporter just looked at the car and left it get away. Su Jianan finally went away smoothly.

Jiang Shaokai asked, “Do I take you back? Or…”

Su Jianan wanted Jiang Shaokai to send her to Lu Enterprises, but at the time, the number of reporters near the entrance of Lu Enterprises were definitely more than those at the police station. She thought for a moment and said, “Send me back.”

After sending Su Jianan back to Dingya Villas, Jiang Shaokai drove back to his home.

He didn’t expect to be scolded as soon as he got home.

“Good for you,” his father smashed over the teacup, “you can actually take off the uniform and hit reporters to protect a married woman. You have forgotten who you are, after spending so much time at the police station, haven’t you?”

His mother approached and pinched him. “If it weren’t for the editor of the newspaper recognizing you, and your uncle intercepting the report… you would have made the headlines for hitting the reporter.”

Jiang Shaokai did not care. He went straight to his uncle wearing a military uniform, and spoke respectfully, “Uncle, I need to talk to you about something.”

He needed his uncle’s help if he wanted to look for Hong Qing, since he was more convenient and efficient than anyone.
