“Let him talk.”
Bai Chen’s words sounded. Li Cong Tian and Xu Xin Tong could not help but turn to him.
A moment later, Li Cong Tian quickly spoke up. “Let him talk then.”
Of course, he would not dare go against Bai Chen, even though he was so angry at Hua Hai that he did not want to see his face anymore.
Xu Xin Tong frowned a little. She was wondering what kind of relationship Bai Chen and Li Cong Tian had.
She thought that Bai Chen had to be rather powerful to be associated with a man like Li Cong Tian. It was obvious that Li Cong Tian would gladly listen to anything that Bai Chen told him.
However, Xu Xin Tong did not ask about it. She nodded at lieutenant Jong and the other two officers who had seized Hua Hai by the arms.
Lieutenant Jong nodded back and met the gazes of the two officers.
They nodded and freed Hua Hai from their grips.
Hua Hai was freed. He inhaled deeply. He knew full well that he was done for. There was no escape for him.
The only thing he could do was to expose those who were in on it with him.
It was obvious that Hua Hai was a petty man. He did not want to be arrested alone. The man that he was about to expose was actually the one who had initiated the embezzlement and scapegoat plan!
Hua Hai was about to expose the man who was actually behind everything!
However, before Hua Hai began to speak, he wondered how Li Cong Tian knew the accounting ledger’s whereabouts, even though he had hidden it very well.
He had not wondered about it earlier when Li Cong Tian had tossed the accounting ledger at him because he had been busy being scared.
“Make it quick,” Lieutenant Jong rushed him.
Hua Hai inhaled deeply once again before speaking through his teeth. “The mastermind of all this was Yuan Kai!”
Hua Hai’s voice was so loud, it echoed throughout the meeting room.
Once Hua Hai was done talking, Li Cong Tian’s body trembled and went numb. His face was so twisted, it had turned ugly.
“You’re telling the truth?” he asked with a serious voice. It was obvious that his rage had gone beyond its peak.
If what Hua Hai said was true, it was rather normal for Li Cong Tian to be furious. Yuan Kai had been his personal assistant for 3 years and he highly trusted him. Moreover, Yuan Kai was the one that he had carefully hand-picked by himself.
“Calm down, Mr. Li. He may be lying.” Xu Xin Tong spoke coldly. She was very calm. Her face was expressionless as usual.
Hearing that, Li Cong Tian settled down a little. He inhaled deeply to suppress his emotions.
“Go get the person named Yuan Kai,” Xu Xin Tong ordered lieutenant Jong.
Lieutenant accepted the order before leaving the meeting room alone. He wanted the other two officers to keep their eyes on Hua Hai.
Bai Chen looked at lieutenant Jong quietly until he was gone. He turned to look at Hua Hai.
The reason why he’d let Hua Hai talk was simply because he was afraid that if all of the culprits in the scapegoat case were not arrested, he would fail the mission.
Everyone went silent. No one said anything until 5 minutes later when lieutenant Jong brought Yuan Kai into the meeting room.
The reason why he had been able to find Yuan Kai so easily was the very same one as to how he’d found Hua Hai earlier.
The moment that he stepped into the room, Yuan Kai suddenly stopped. He looked at Hua Hai who was handcuffed.
‘T…This is bad!’ Yuan Kai felt uneasy. He was a clever man, so he knew what this meant. He knew full well that his and Hua Hai’s embezzlement had been exposed.
A handcuffed Hua Hai who was in the police’s custody proved it.
Yuan Kai inhaled deeply before continuing to walk in calmly, even though he actually felt a little anxious and angry.
The anxiety was anxiety over being arrested. The anger was, of course, over Hua Hai daring to give him away like this!
“Yuan Kai, you son of a bitch. It was all because of you. If you hadn’t encouraged me and planned it out, I wouldn’t have done something like this!”
Seeing Yuan Kai walk into the room, Hua Hai suddenly released his rage. It was all because of Yuan Kai. He would not have gone along with things if Yuan Kai were not his wife’s nephew.
If Yuan Kai were not his wife’s nephew, he would never have gone along with his crazy plan.
However, Hua Hai still could not deny that one of the reasons for him embezzling the company’s money was also his greed.
“Vice President Hua, what are you all talking about?” Yuan Kai pretended to be innocent. He stopped not so far from where Hua Hai was standing. He did not look at Hua Hai, but Li Cong Tian. “President, what has happened?”
“Yuan Kai, you’re not going to get away with this. I have solid proof!” Hua Hai interrupted Li Cong Tian with his shout.
“Y…You!” Hearing what Hua Hai said, Yuan Kai could no longer keep his cool. His facial expression changed drastically. If what he said was true, he would undoubtedly be arrested.
‘I h…have to run!’ Yuan Kai thought agitatedly. He regretted that he had not realized it sooner when Li Cong Tian had called him to open Hua Hai’s office.
Yuan Kai suddenly dashed towards the door after thinking about running.
“Get him.” Xu Xin Tong spoke through her teeth with her cold voice.
Lieutenant Jong, who was standing not that far from Yuan Kai, quickly kicked him in the leg before he went through the door.
Thud!
Yuan Kai fell forward onto the floor and passed out immediately.
Li Cong Tian saw the entire thing. He tightened his fists. His body trembled with rage. He definitely was not a fool. He knew now that what Hua Hai said was true!!!
How could he not be angry?
Xu Xin Tong got up from her chair. “Take both of them to the station and interrogate them.”
“Yes, ma’am!” Lieutenant Jong and the other two police officers quickly did what they were told. They took the unconscious Yuan Kai and a pale-faced Hua Hai away.
At the moment, Bai Chen also got up from his chair. He was done here and was ready to go.End of Chapter 253
