Chapter 209 Decoy

The next day after Fu Xiaolan"s interview, the Fu Conglomerate released their own statement.

This statement pointed out three main thing...

First, they apologized for what had happened to Fu Zouyi and Fu Honglie. The Fu Conglomerate would do everything, to find the culprit that harmed their family members and promised that they will give everyone updates about that.

Second, they exposed evidence of Fu Honglie"s gambling habits and his embezzlement that involved millions. Additionally, they showed a comparison of Fu Jin and Fu Zouyi"s accomplishments, both local and abroad.

Third, was an argument that reb.u.t.ted everyone"s speculations. From the comparison alone, everyone could see that Fu Jin was far more superior than Fu Zuoyi, so why would he harm him? Why would he feel threatened? When Fu Jin was born, everyone already labeled him as the next Fu patriarch. So why would he feel threatened by someone who was not at the same league as him?

There was also Fu Honglie"s case. The evidence clearly showed that he owed the Fu Conglomerate hundreds of millions, killing him would have only meant that he wouldn"t be able to pay the debt, so it would not make any sense to anyone. The evidence clearly showed his gambling habit. He was present in different casino"s every night, his death could only mean that he might have crossed someone, or owed someone from the underworld.

The Fu Family laid out all the evidence that could have proved Fu Jin"s innocence, contrary to Fu Family, the ma.s.ses did not have any concrete evidence that would have proved Fu Jin"s guilt. All of their speculations were just based on rumors.

Now, there was an important question: why would the Fu Xiaolan point fingers and demand explanation from the Fu Conglomerate when it was her father who did something wrong?

Why would everyone accuse the Fu Family"s heir of dealing with his own uncle when he would not benefit from it at all.

The three points were so direct and clear that everyone in the media froze in astonishment.

The Fu Family was someone that should not be trifled with. So it was very randomly for them to be involved in an issues like this.

The Fu family"s statement had only shown how accurate they were when it came to handling issues and scandals.

This immediately turned the opinion of the ma.s.ses.

These were supposed to be issues of the business world, but after the Fu Conglomerate"s response, the people who were paying attention to this scandal increase.

After all, it was not common that ordinary people could have watched a show from one of the four prestigious families.

"Smart." Fu Xiaolan muttered while reading the news. "She is indeed smart."

"You mean Jiang Yue?" Zhang Liyin asked while frowning.

"Who else? If I"m right, then she already knows that I am responsible for all of this," she shrugged,"I only hope that mother can protect me from Jiang Yue and Fu Jin"s ruthlessness."

"Of course, I will protect you. Don"t worry about it. I will do my best to protect you." Zhang Liyin a.s.sured her daughter, her gaze apologetic. After all the things that she had done to her own son, it was only right for her to protect him with everything she got.

Zhang Liyin was a ruthless mother. She was smart enough to admit this mistake. Zhang Liyin thought that her husband would love her once she did everything that he asked of her.

She had given him her heart and soul. Yet, he still ended up with many mistresses.

Did she regret doing everything for her husband? Yes, she did.

If she could go back, she would have never done this to her son. Now, all she could do, was take responsibility for her actions and do her best to protect Fu Xiaolan from the Fu Family. Even if it meant taking responsibility for the things that she hadn"t done: like killing Fu Honglie and poisoning her own son.

Seeing Zhang Liyin"s resolute reaction, something flashed in Fu Xiaolan"s eyes. It was too quick for her mother to notice. She then lowered her head as her lips lifted in an evil smirk.

That"s right. Zhang Liyin should take responsibility for all of this. After all, it was her fault, being so stupid and heartless towards her own son.

She should take all the blame and accept the punishment for her sins. That"s right.

Zhang Liyin should suffer. The thought of her parents suffering immediately lightened up her mood.

Ah... she couldn"t help but think about her father, who was tied up with chains at the bas.e.m.e.nt of one of her properties.

That"s right! Fu Honglie was still alive. The one who died in his car was just a decoy. Someone, who they had killed, to be her father"s replacement.

She asked her accomplice to pick someone with a similar physique to her father and kill him. Afterward, burn Fu Honglie"s car, with that corpse inside. Of course, she needed an expert to get rid of all the evidences that would have pointed out the ident.i.ty of the real owner of the body.

Fu Xiaolan licked her lips as bloodthirst started oozing over her. She couldn"t help but antic.i.p.ate the thought of her father suffering in her hands. She would let that man experience everything that Zhang Liyin had done to her.

Ah... victory... Fu Xiaolan could already smell it coming towards her.
