Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 2237 - 2140: It’s Over

Sponsored

Lai Wenguang wanted to escape, but this little trick certainly couldn’t fool someone like Guo Dongliang, who frequently handled cases. It’s worth noting that as Guo Dongliang sat in the director’s chair, he had handled countless cases, catching drug dealers, human traffickers, and gun dealers. Someone like Lai Wenguang couldn’t really stir up much trouble.

Not long after, several colleagues from the Commerce Bureau that Guo Dongliang contacted hurriedly arrived.

These people brought professional tools, and in no time, inspected the betting stones inside the shop.

"Officer Dong, these raw materials have been tampered with, the Python Band and the moss, they’re all fake. The majority of these raw materials are waste or brick materials that have been faked after post-processing."

After the inspection, the examiner immediately announced.

Upon hearing this, Dong Taili nodded, but his expression instantly darkened.

Lai Wenguang and Zhao Youxing’s faces changed simultaneously.

Lai Wenguang knew this was a big disaster, continuously pondering whom he should find to help bail himself out discreetly.

Beside him, Zhao Youxing wore a completely bewildered and shocked expression.

He indeed had received some benefits from Lai Wenguang, agreeing to protect Lai Wenguang’s store in Wangfujing from being bullied. However, he never anticipated Lai Wenguang would be so bold to sell fake goods on such a large scale right under the Emperor’s nose!

Zhao Youxing was an outsider, unfamiliar with raw jadeite materials. He had initially been tempted by the big-picture promise painted by Lai Wenguang, thinking that Lai Wenguang was conducting legitimate business. Hearing the commerce bureau say that these raw materials were fake, he was still struggling to comprehend it, and his first thought was, can betting stone raw materials be fake?

However, no matter how innocent or ignorant Zhao Youxing was, since he had shielded and provided protection for Lai Wenguang, he was destined to pay the price for his ignorance. Even though he didn’t understand the betting stone business, there was no way he could navigate this murky water smoothly now.

Upon hearing the commerce bureau’s results, Guo Dongliang couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.

Apparently, he had misunderstood Miss Huo. But thinking about it, anyone who could donate thirty billion without batting an eye wasn’t someone who would resort to unscrupulous means for fame and fortune. His initial suspicion of this lady was indeed mean-spirited.

Thinking of this, Guo Dongliang glanced at Lai Wenguang with a noticeably sharper and fierce expression.

Although Wangfujing was subdivided into police precincts, higher up, it was a large district under his jurisdiction. If this scandal really got exposed, and the police investigated it afterwards, it would not only disgrace the Wangfujing precinct, but it wouldn’t look good on him either.

Even though Guo Dongliang didn’t know much about betting stone raw materials, judging from some of the transaction records he sifted through in the shop earlier, the price of these raw materials wasn’t cheap at all, ranging from a few thousand to several tens of thousands. Selling fake goods at such high prices was no different from fraud.

On the other side, Dong Taili was still somewhat puzzled as to why Guo Dongliang would step out of his comfortable office to intervene in the Wangfujing store investigation.

Unable to resist, he leaned in and curiously whispered:

"Old Guo, give me a tip. What exactly is going on here? I’m a bit confused."

Guo Dongliang glanced at Dong Taili, then looked at Zhao Youxing and Lai Wenguang before finally smiling and asking, "Do you really want to know?"

Dong Taili immediately nodded, "Isn’t that obvious? Tell me the situation so I can be mentally prepared to determine the nature of this case."

Mindful of the people present, Guo Dongliang chuckled without saying more, but he took out his phone, typed a few words, and sent a text to Dong Taili.

Dong Taili felt the phone vibrate, was momentarily stunned, then hurriedly took out his phone.

Upon seeing the contents of the text from Guo Dongliang, Dong Taili couldn’t help but shudder, staring at Guo Dongliang in disbelief.

"It was her who called me - could I not come and check? This Lai person indeed has issues; it’s no wonder that person wants to take action against him. Handle this in accordance with the regulations and procedures; how it should be judged is how it should be judged. You’re aware of her temper, so if this issue can’t be contained, might as well lay it out in the open!"

Guo Dongliang straightforwardly told Dong Taili.

Dong Taili nodded. Although he hadn’t met the lady, he’d heard of her deeds from others.

Especially the case from Liulichang where the An family daughter abused her power - that person’s aura impressed quite a few people.

Because of that incident, not only was the police system internally warned, their commerce side also received warnings never to cause trouble or inconvenience for that person at all, lest you don’t even know how you end up dead.

Seeing that this current matter was stirred up by her, Dong Taili knew he couldn’t be careless. Otherwise, the lady might get upset and their superiors might find them lacking, potentially making it hard to maintain their positions.

Thinking about this, Dong Taili shivered and promptly said with a serious tone:

"Doctor Su, take your team and thoroughly inspect this store and the back. See if there are other problematic goods, and make sure to be meticulous and cautious without overlooking anything!"

The examiner named Doctor Su froze for a second, then promptly nodded, called over two other examiners, and headed inside.

Guo Dongliang also spoke up, "Xiao Zhuang, take a couple of people and assist the commerce bureau’s examiners in their investigation."

Several policemen followed along, and soon reports emerged from inside. The examiners found a large cache of fake raw materials in the store’s backyard, the stockpile was tens of times larger than the fake raw materials displayed out front.

"So many raw materials, if sold, the involved funds would amount to at least several million, making this a major case. Lai Wenguang is truly too bold, utterly lawless!"

Even the policemen standing in the courtyard, along with Dong Taili and Guo Dongliang, were somewhat shocked.

Especially Dong Taili, as the sale of fake raw materials fell within his area of responsibility. Had this matter been discovered a bit later, with the massive sum involved, it could have sparked significant social backlash. If exposed by the media, his position as section chief might have been directly stripped away!

Thinking of this, Dong Taili couldn’t help feeling a sense of fear, and his gaze towards Lai Wenguang grew increasingly hostile.

During moments like these, anyone coming forward to plead for Lai Wenguang was of no use!

Lai Wenguang shivered in fear, with only one thought left in his mind: It’s over!
