Chapter 530: 530: We Are Law Abiding Citizens

“Dear, we are in Country Z. We should be law-abiding citizens!” Di Jingxuan reminded his wife.

Xie Qingyan rolled her eyes, “Why does it feel that ever since you came with me to Country Z, you are behaving more like a citizen than I am?”

Seeing how his wife was puffing in anger, Di Jingxuan patted his wife’s hand and said, “There is a saying in this country – it isn’t too late for one to avenge, even after a decade.”

Xie Qingyan stared at him and asked, “You want to wait another decade?!”

“Oh sorry! What I meant was we shouldn’t just kill them so easily. We should at least torture him to death. If we kill them now, the pain would only be for a second, right? We should push them off the top of the pyramid and slowly torture them, letting them pay for their sins. This is what they deserve. Think about it. Do you think that it’s better to just kill them or to allow them to get to the top of the world, and then push them off while they are the most content? They would lose everything that they ever had in their life and would be living like beggars.”

Xie Qingyan wrapped her hands around Di Jingxuan and buried her head in his chest. She no longer felt like talking anymore, and the murderous intent that she had slowly disappeared.

Getting rid of them was easier than getting rid of ants, but that would mean that they wouldn’t be able to avenge all the pain and sufferings that their daughter has been through for the past 20 years.

On the other hand, Zhe Yan was bombarded by phone calls and was telling Zhan Lichuan what happened in rage.

Zhan Lichuan was fixing the skin on the robot. His hands continued working as he told Zhe Yan, “They are uneducated and obviously wouldn’t know the meaning of ending everything. You should just teach them the definition. Why are you getting worked up?”

“What if they start disturbing the Young Mistress?” Zhe Yan asked.

Zhan Lichuan finally paused and looked at him, “Why would you allow them to look for the Young Mistress? Do you think that she has nothing better to do?”

Zhe Yan answered, “Yes Sir.”

I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said that. It was all his fault.

About a minute later after Cheng Shuyu ended the call, Jing Xuean’s phone started ringing like mad.

As soon as he picked up his phone, he could hear his a.s.sistant speaking frantically, “Boss, the inspectors from the Environment Protection Department came to our site and said that there are major pollutants. The environment protection operations are not up to standard. They are asking for us to stop the project right away, and you will have to take a 7 day course as well as pay a fine.”

Jing Xuean’s face turned gloomy, “What?! What’s wrong with them?! Are they that hungry for money? Are they crazy?! I have been working according to the standards, why are they asking us to stop?!”

“It’s your brother’s project. In order to cut down the cost for the company, he decided to use the cheaper nets, which is why most of the dust got out.”

Jing Xuean was dumbfounded!

“A bunch of idiots!”

After ending the call, Jing Xuean wanted to head out when his wife grabbed him and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Jing Xuean told her the entire incident about the Environment Protection Department.

“I will be at the site trying to solve this issue. I won’t be back for dinner.”

Jing Lu wanted to say something when the financial department called him.

Jing Xuean picked up the phone and heard one of his staff whispering to him, “Sir, the inspectors from the Tax Department came. They said that they got a report that our company has been evading taxes, which is why they are investigating us now.”

Jing Xuean’s heart sank.

“Why are they here to check on our taxes all of a sudden?”

“I’m not sure as well. They just appeared. You should know that the Tax department office is just near our office.”

“Are all of you fully prepared?”

“We are, but you should also know that if they do a thorough investigation about it, we will still be charged.”
