Chapter 318: Chapter 178: The Struggle for Power Is Always Brutal—The Victor Becomes King, an Eternal Truth (Part 2)

He still thinks he’s the old Brother Qing from back then, that he can solve all problems by hosting a banquet.

The Qing Dynasty has been long gone, yet he’s clinging to outdated traditions.

"Wait... What do you mean by this? Why did you go for an injury assessment, Brother Hong?" Li Baoqing asked in confusion.

Qiu Yuhong immediately became furious, replying, "Who’s your Brother Hong? I’m warning you not to forge connections! I’m innocent, and you’re the one who’s dubious, hitting people. Who’s your brother? Let me clarify, I have nothing to do with Li Baoqing. Everyone knows what kind of company Shield Security Group is, I can say I stand on the opposite side of crime!"

Li Baoqing couldn’t help but laugh, saying, "Brother Hong, what are you doing? Why are you quoting movie lines? It’s not that big of a deal, do you really have to go this far?"

Zhang Xiang sneered coldly, saying, "Using violent means to illegally detain someone warrants three to ten years. Mr. Li, you’d better hire a lawyer. This time, I’ll push for the maximum penalty of 10 years; I hope your lawyer can manage to get your sentence reduced."

Qiu Yuhong: "We can all testify, Lawyer Zhang can ask for assistance whenever needed." 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Li Baoqing just realized the severity of the problem, far beyond what he imagined.

"Mr. Yang, you’re not actually going to file a lawsuit against me, are you? We’re all on the same side, there’s no need! Tomorrow, I’ll host a banquet and personally apologize to Mr. Yang. Whatever demands you have, just ask, and I’ll do my best to meet them. Is that okay?" Li Baoqing asked anxiously and fearfully.

Yang Chen pretended to rub his head and exaggeratedly said, "I’m feeling dizzy right now, there’s a constant urge to faint, and I feel nauseous wanting to throw up. Lawyer Zhang, we’d better go for an injury assessment."

Zhang Xiang: "Alright! Let’s go right now! Chairman Qiu, please lead the way."

Qiu Yuhong nodded and immediately led the way to escort Yang Chen for his injury assessment.

Li Baoqing slumped on the sofa, his mind chaotic, completely unable to accept this situation.

Beside him, Zhang Juan asked, "Wha- What should we do now? There are so many people supporting him, and Zhang Xiang is the lawyer, we’re sure to lose! If Zhang Xiang is right about the violent illegal detention leading to imprisonment, we’re finished!"

Li Baoqing immediately flared up, got up, and slapped Zhang Juan, scolding, "I damn well told you to handle your brother, but you wouldn’t listen! You damn keep nagging that we only want to cash out instead of having long-term plans, there’s no need to care so much; what’s wrong with letting our people earn more money? Now everything’s ruined! Your damn brother’s the culprit here! If it weren’t for him getting caught by Yang Chen, would things have escalated to this?"

Zhang Juan clutched her face and retorted, "And what about your sister embezzling public funds, why aren’t you mentioning that? You didn’t deal with her, so why can’t my brother earn money using normal means? Is it more serious for my brother to deal with fish and shrimp, or for your sister to embezzle public funds? Now something happened, and you’re blaming me, right? I’m telling you, you ordered them to shut Yang Chen up, it has nothing to do with me! I’ll find a lawyer now, I’m going to divorce you. We’ll separate cleanly, then I can still protect myself. If I’m tied to you, our entire family is doomed!"

Li Baoqing thought Zhang Juan made sense.

They immediately decided to divorce, Li Baoqing left with nothing, and the entire property went to Zhang Juan, their son would stay with her.

If Li Baoqing gets jailed this time, at least the inheritance for his son would be preserved.

"Alright! You quickly call a lawyer, we’ll immediately agree to divorce, tomorrow we’ll finalize the divorce certificate! Our son is with you, if I get jailed this time, you need to raise him well. You’re allowed to remarry, but you can’t change our son’s surname, this is my final request!" Li Baoqing stated.

Zhang Juan nodded tearfully and embraced Li Baoqing.

Zhang Jun asked nervously, "Brother-in-law, sister, what do I do? If what I did gets exposed, will I go to jail too? Sister, I’m about to get married, Xiaoqing is pregnant, you can’t just watch as your nephew is born with a jailed father, can you? And if I go to jail, our parents definitely can’t handle it, they might collapse. Sister, you have to help me, you have to save me!"

Zhang Juan replied tearfully, "Brother, there’s nothing I can do right now. You should surrender yourself and seek leniency. Your brother-in-law might even get captured this time, so you won’t stand a chance. Who could have thought that Yang Chen, looking so refined, would be so ruthless?"

Zhang Jun cried and replied, "Sis, I don’t want to go to jail! I’m only 28, if I go, my whole life is ruined, Xiaoqing definitely won’t marry me, and she’d surely abort the child. Our parents’ health would suddenly collapse, and our whole family would be finished."

Now he realized the serious consequences, but when he was buying two houses a year like this, flaunting in front of agents, he wasn’t acting like this, back then he was so high-spirited, boastful.

...

Zhang Xiang accompanied Yang Chen to perform an injury assessment under police witness. Due to Yang Chen’s facial injuries, a wound at the back of his head, a mild concussion, accompanied by tinnitus, hearing impairment, and symptoms like bruised limbs and back, meeting the criteria for severe injury level one.

With the injury assessment results in hand, Zhang Xiang could act accordingly next.

Early in the morning, the police arrived at Li Baoqing’s house to take him and Zhang Juan back for investigation.
