Chapter 427: Chapter 426 Hiring a Hitman to Kill Someone

"Mm," his voice carried a sobbing tone.

It was inexplicably soft. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Then, Lu Qingyan curled up with her in a lounge chair, hugging her to sleep.

After Jiang Nanshu had fallen asleep, he gently got up, covered her with a light blanket, and left the room.

Ye Yuan had been waiting in the hall for a while, and when he saw Lu Qingyan coming out, he respectfully approached, "President Lu, I’ve delivered the documents you asked me to send. Will you be returning to the office this afternoon?"

Lu Qingyan sat on the couch, glancing over the documents, "I won’t go back, I’ll stay home with my wife today. Later, could you help me find a few obedient and sensible servants? The pay is negotiable, just make sure they’re not double-dealers."

Ye Yuan looked at the empty villa, "..."

"You dismissed all of them?"

"Yeah, find some servants to help clean up Half Mountain Villa; I’m moving next month. Also, find me a top-notch nanny to take care of my wife’s daily routines."

Ye Yuan nodded, "Alright, President Lu, I’ll take care of it right away."

After a pause, he added, "President Lu, the current crisis of the Yang Family has caused their stocks to plummet, and the companies they cooperated with have all terminated their contracts. Should we... also terminate our cooperation?"

Lu Qingyan pondered for a moment before shaking his head, "Let’s wait and see. What exactly are they involved in?"

Ye Yuan, somewhat sentimental, lowered his voice, "They got entangled with a batch of illicit goods, things that cannot see the light of day. If the charges are proven, it’s over for the Yang Family."

Lu Qingyan’s eyebrows furrowed slightly as he considered carefully—that the Yang Family was always involved in legitimate business, so how could they possibly get entangled in such grey industries.

"What’s going on with the Yang Family?"

Lu Qingyan had not specifically looked into the matters concerning Yang Jiashu.

He only knew that Yang Jiashu might have to get married into a family of government officials to resolve the situation.

Ye Yuan sighed, "You know about the Ke Family, right? The one that moved abroad, they were bankrupted by Lady Yan two years ago, and their businesses were exposed and arrested by the police. However, they were not the source of these illicit goods but merely a conduit, profiting from these things. After the Ke Family’s downfall, the fire continued even to this day. The police recently received a tip-off that the trade in these goods hasn’t stopped, and behind it are a few well-known enterprises used as cover for the ongoing trafficking—one of which is the Cheng family. In fact, the Cheng family really did those things. Mr. Cheng has been in jail for some time now, just a few days after your class reunion finished."

"After the Cheng family was caught, quite a few channels were traced. The Yang Family is also on the list, although not yet confirmed. The investigation is ongoing, but it’s enough to give the Yang Family a hard time already."

The more he heard, the tighter Lu Qingyan’s brows knotted.

He tapped his fingers on the desk, feeling that something was amiss, but couldn’t figure out what it was.

Before he could sort it out, the sound of police sirens came from outside.

Ye Yuan’s gaze sharpened as he exchanged looks with Lu Qingyan.

Was this problem finally reaching their doorstep?

"Open up!" The police outside stood in formation, shouting loudly.

Lu Qingyan nodded to Ye Yuan, who rubbed his face, took a deep breath, and went out with a smile.

Opening the grand door, he greeted with a smile, "My, what kind of wind has blown several police officers over here? Is there something wrong?"

The leading middle-aged police officer nodded, "Is President Lu at home? We have some questions for him."

Ye Yuan nodded with a smile, "Yes, yes, he is. Please follow me."

The police followed Ye Yuan to find Lu Qingyan.

Since Lu Qingyan had dismissed all the servants, the task of making tea fell to Ye Yuan.
