Chapter 722 The End of the Chaos
Just as everyone was actively discussing Wen Xinya’s abduction, the Wen Family released some reports from the hospital and put an end to the rumors of Wen Xinya getting s.e.xually violated.
Most of the people focused their attention on Wen Xinya’s recovery.
According to the information that was released, Wen Xinya had gotten into an intense scuffle with the terrorists before she got kidnapped, during which she sustained lots of wounds and a severe injury to her head after a strong impact. Previously, she had also been beaten up harshly by the terrorists. Hence, everyone took pity on her.
Meanwhile, Wen Xinya did not let everyone down either. She stated on her Weibo page that there were no longer any issues with her health and thanked everyone for their concern. She also expressed her grat.i.tude for the military.
Wen Xinya then posted a primary school textbook article that was t.i.tled “Who’s The Most Adorable Person?” on her Weibo page, which garnered a ma.s.sive number of likes from netizens.
The matter finally came to a rest and Wen Xinya heaved a huge sigh of relief. She grabbed the set of revision notes that Zhong Rufeng had given her during his visit yesterday. It included some study tips and was both useful and time-efficient for her.
Yan Shaoqing noticed that she seemed to be deep in thought. “The doctor said that you have suffered a major injury in your head and that you have to rest your mind for the time being.”
Wen Xinya frantically said, “Don’t worry! My wounds have already healed. Mother He is taking good care of me too. She’s been keeping close tabs on me for two hours in the morning, two in the afternoon and one in the evening. She also makes sure that I take a 15-minute break every hour and take a brain-nouris.h.i.+ng soup all the time.”
Since the final year examinations were just around th corner, Wen Xinya was extremely nervous. As soon as her wounds healed, she began revising frantically and, although she only spent five hours each day revising, Si Yiyan would tutor her for an hour every evening and she felt that she had made tremendous progress.
Finally feeling relieved, Yan Shaoqing said, “The examinations may be round the corner, but don’t stress yourself out too much. You have to be mindful of your health. It’s of utmost importance.”
Wen Xinya waved and said, “Got it, got it! I’m so sick of hearing that. Brother Yan, are you looking for me because there’s progress with the Xia Family?”
Her main concern was the situation in the Xia Family.
Yan Shaoqing handed her a doc.u.ment and got straight to the point. “I visited some of the Xia Family’s supermarket branches a few days ago. I bought some products which would more likely than not fail to meet the authority’s standards and sent them for a lab test. It turns out that they indeed sell products that do not meet the standards. I’ve mailed the products to the Administrative Bureau Of Commerce and lodged a complaint against the Xia Family anonymously. Just like I expected, the Administrative Bureau conducted a check on their products on the very next day.”
Actually, he was not that confident about Wen Xinya’s suggestion, he decided to do that in order to be careful.
Extremely pleased with the outcome and Yan Shaoqing’s cautiousness, Wen Xinya asked, “What are the results?”
Yan Shaoqing answered, “They found that the Xia Family sold more than twenty types of products which have failed to meet the standards, including dried sausages, ham, cured meats, ceramic products, s.e.x toys, daily necessities, as well as some cosmetic products!”
Even Yan Shaoqing was shocked by the vast amount of products that have failed to meet the standards. The Xia Family was really brazen to have done that.
Wen Xinya was also greatly taken aback. She did not expect there to be so many products, all of which were widely used by the citizens. “How did the Administrative Bureau handle this?”
Yan Shaoqing said, “They’ve issued a million-yuan fine to the Xia Family and they’re required to remove all prohibited products from their shelves within three days.”
The matter was fuel added to the fire now that the Xia Family was facing a cash flow problem. The prohibition of sales would result in a major loss for the Xia Family.
To make matters worse, they had to pay a fine of one million yuan.
How were they supposed to recoup their loss?
Wen Xinya had indeed pulled a shrewd and wicked move this time.
Wen Xinya gave a nod of satisfaction and asked, “How’s the situation in the Xia Family now?”
Yan Shaoqing answered, “They’re in a horrible predicament and the Xia Family’s in-laws, the Chen Family, decided not to give them a helping hand this time. I reckon there must be a huge deficient in funds and the Chen family is definitely afraid of being implicated by the Xia Family. Besides, the Xia Family has also sold several properties under their names, as well as the building materials and equipment from the transitioning of the new mall. Chen Linfang is also berating Xia Ruya for implicating the Xia Family.”
Wen Xinya could not help but be reminded of her previous lifetime, during which the Xia Family was extremely haughty and arrogant. Chen Linfang used to look down on her condescendingly and would even insult her. In this lifetime… she was determined to push the Xia Family to h.e.l.l.
Yan Shaoqing said, “Now that the Xia Family is facing a crisis, should I take the chance to approach them?”
Right from the start, Wen Xinya had been attacking the Xia Family not only because of Xia Ruya but also because of the ma.s.sive benefits.
Wen Xinya sneered. “We don’t have to rush. The Xia Family is very scheming. In order to prevent them from getting up to any tricks, we’d better take our time and deal with them. We must make them kneel before us and beg us to stop.”
She did not wish to be in too much contact with the Xia Family and felt that there was no need to be pretentious and suck up to them. She was well aware of how greedy the Xia Family was, just like Xia Ruya, who had definitely inherited that trait.
Yan Shaoqing said, “Everyone is coveting the Xia Family’s a.s.sets and your father seems to be one of them. The Gu Family has also sent their people to communicate with the Xia Family. If we don’t act fast, others might beat us to it and our efforts will go in vain.”
Everyone would be tempted by the ma.s.sive benefits.
Wen Xinya smirked coldly and said, “You don’t have to worry about that. Xia Haolin has another mansion in the Southern suburbs. Send someone to keep close tabs on it. We might just get some unexpected benefits.”
That was the reason behind her confidence.
Despite being a little bewildered, Yan Shaoqing agreed upon seeing how confident she seemed. “Don’t worry! Leave this to me.”
Wen Xinya nodded, for she had always trusted Yan Shaoqing’s abilities. “The media has yet to report about the Xia Family’s products meeting the safety standards. That’s partly because all of the media’s attention is on me at the moment. Another reason is that the Xia Family has been handling it well. Find a way to make the media report about them.”
One could only imagine how careful the Xia Family must have been, to have escaped the authority checks for so many years.
Yan Shaoqing agreed with a nod. “Sure.”
Wen Xinya suddenly said, “I heard that the Xia Family has been delaying the payment of wages of the workers who took part in the transitioning of the mall. Find out more about that.”
Yan Shaoqing’s heart skipped a beat and he agreed.
