Chapter 821: Chapter 820: Sacrifice the Car to Save the General (1 more update)

The Wen and Zhou families confronted the SWAT team, the atmosphere taut with tension.

”Arrest them!”

The SWAT team advanced to make arrests, but suddenly two Xuanmen members appeared, their mere presence forcing the officers back.

”Let’s see who dares?!” The cultivator was arrogant, disregarding the SWAT completely.

”You dare resist arrest?” Chen Yushan shouted.

At this moment, Wen Cheng casually said, ”Resist arrest? We dare not. But if you’re arresting us, shouldn’t there be a reason?”

”Want a reason, is it?”

Ye Haochuan stepped forward from behind and said in a deep voice, ”You colluded with people from Xuanmen, coercing and bribing others to damage the reputation of my company, isn’t this reason enough?”

”It’s you!”

Seeing Ye Haochuan, both Wen Cheng and Zhou Lin were shocked, wondering where their two thugs had gone now that Ye Haochuan was here.

”Indeed, it’s me,” Ye Haochuan said with a light smile. ”Gentlemen, let’s have a tea at the police station!”

Following his indication, Chen Yushan immediately led the team forward. Just as the two Xuanmen members were about to react, Ye Haochuan restrained them by the shoulders.

”Move again, and you’ll be killed!”

The oppressive aura of an Innate Late Stage burst forth, causing the two men to tremble uncontrollably, no longer daring to act rashly.

”Stop them!”

Wen Cheng and Zhou Lin panicked, but the two Xuanmen members could only show helplessness in their eyes, implying that there was nothing they could do against someone so powerful.

Without the protection of the Xuanmen members, Wen Cheng and Zhou Lin had no choice but to surrender.

At the police station, Wen Cheng and Zhou Lin staunchly denied the accusations of framing, even when Li Wenfeng presented evidence, they remained uncooperative.

Finally, Chen Yushan decisively arrested the initial troublemakers; these were ordinary people who quickly broke down at the police station, confessing everything.

Among them, some were paid, others were threatened to cause disturbances at Ye Haochuan’s company, firmly blaming the Ice Muscle Revitalizing Cream for issues.

In order to salvage the reputation, Ye Haochuan also invited several media outlets to report extensively on the true situation.

Utilizing the media’s influence, the Ice Muscle Revitalizing Cream quickly regained its recognition and even surpassed its previous sales, while the Wen and Zhou families from the Imperial Capital were thrust into controversy.

Many voiced their criticisms of the Wen and Zhou families online.

Netizen A: ”So the families from the Imperial Capital think they’re so great, huh?”

Netizen B: ”Using such despicable means for a takeover, is this the style of big families?”

Netizen C: ”Boycott Wen and Zhou families, never shopping at their malls again!”

...

Faced with public pressure, the Wen and Zhou families experienced significant impacts, with their businesses facing setbacks.

Both families convened an emergency meeting, making the same decision to sacrifice the streets to save the general.”

Therefore, both families promptly issued statements disassociating themselves from the scandal, claiming it was purely Wen Cheng’s and Zhou Lin’s individual decisions. To demonstrate their strong opposition to such misconduct, the families decided to strip them of all their positions.

In the interrogation room at the police station, Ye Haochuan looked at Wen Cheng and Zhou Lin and leisurely spoke, ”Gentlemen, still choosing to remain silent?”

”My lawyer hasn’t arrived yet, I won’t say anything before then,” Wen Cheng maintained a haughty demeanor, ”You might as well give up.”

Zhou Lin laughed, ”Thinking that capturing us will solve everything? You underestimate the families from the Imperial Capital.”

”You’re correct, we ordinary folks from small places really can’t afford to offend the likes of the Imperial Capital families, most people wouldn’t dare to oppose you.”

”You know it’s best, if you don’t hand over the Ice Muscle Revitalizing Cream, your company can just wait to shut down!”

Ye Haochuan shook his head, ”It seems you haven’t quite grasped the situation yet, have you not understood what I’ve been trying to tell you?”

Clearly, Ye Haochuan meant to say that he was no ordinary individual, and that it was a major mistake for them to have troubled him.

However, Wen Cheng and Zhou Lin did not see it that way. Even though Ye Haochuan was a Xuanmen member with some influence in Haishan City, how could he possibly stand against the mighty families from the Imperial Capital!

So, they were quite confident, even with substantial evidence in Ye Haochuan’s hands, they still believed that he could not touch them!

If the Wen and Zhou families really intended to clash head-on with Ye Haochuan, maintaining Wen Cheng and Zhou Lin wouldn’t be difficult, but doing so seemed a loss not worth the gain, especially not for a newly emerging skincare product.

”It seems you gentlemen don’t shed tears without seeing a coffin.”

Ye Haochuan chuckled then tossed his phone onto the table: ”Take a look for yourselves.”

On the phone screen were news of the press conferences and their public statements, each word cutting deep into Wen Cheng and Zhou Lin.

”How can this be?”

Both slumped in their seats, unable to believe they had been abandoned by their families!

”This cannot be, absolutely impossible!”

Both being abandoned and stripped of all positions by their families, they were now completely dispensable.

For a major family, discarding one or two individuals was trivial, and unfortunately for Wen Cheng and Zhou Lin, they were such individuals.

Ye Haochuan said, ”There’s nothing wrong with your desire to acquire Ice Muscle Revitalizing Cream, I’m sure many large companies have this idea. However, you, chose the wrong methods!”

If the two had approached the transaction in an honest and upright manner, even if the deal failed, it wouldn’t have led to today’s predicament.

Without the powerful backing of their families, both Wen Cheng and Zhou Lin saw their hope shattered, with no one coming to their aid.

Eventually, they divulged all the facts, including how they coerced and bribed others, and spread falsehoods.

Ye Haochuan then posted their confession videos online, turning the tables thoroughly. In less than an hour, his once quiet store was packed with customers, products selling out rapidly, unable to meet the demand.

Wen Cheng, Zhou Lin, and others received their just punishment, but Ye Haochuan knew that things were far from over.

The Wen and Zhou families in the Imperial Capital abandoned Wen Cheng and Zhou Lin, those in the know understood that they had lost to Ye Haochuan this round. As prominent families, they would not let it go.

Ye Haochuan was well aware of this, and if the families openly suppressed them, he wouldn’t fear, after all, the therapeutic effects of Ice Muscle Revitalizing Cream were undeniable.

What he worried about was these families using their power to cause trouble behind the scenes. The proverb ”It’s easy to dodge an open spear, but hard to defend against a hidden arrow” was apt, and he could not afford to be always on the defensive.

Although Dragon Network was still in its early stages, it was obviously starting to get busy.

Ye Haochuan immediately called Li Wenfeng, asking him to keep an eye on the movements of Wen Family and Zhou Family. If anyone from these families came to Haishan, they must notify Ye Haochuan promptly.

Whether these people would pose a real threat to Ye Haochuan or not, having foreknowledge of the enemy always provided a considerable advantage.
