My Little Sweet Wife Chapter 73
Advertisement
Jiang Ruolan frowned as she looked at the pictures on the computer screen, "Is this the scene on Bedford Street? When did this happen?"
"One hour ago." Xian Zihao's expression was cold and he looked exhausted. His tall body was propped up on a chair.
"Had they sent the victim to the hospital? Are they safe? All are still alive?"
Xian Zihao observed an edgy look in Jiang Ruolan's eyes until she shifted her gaze from him to the photo on the screen. Then, her lips moved slightly, "A seventy-year-old man crashing into a forklift to save his wife and cat, and died on the spot. His wife had a heart attack and was immediately sent to the hospital, where she was also pronounced dead."
"This is too much!" Jiang Ruolan took out her cell phone and was about to make a call when Xian Zihao stopped her. "What are you going to do?"
"To make a call! I want to call the city overseer! Is there a problem with the Construction Bureau or is there a shortage in the Earth Resources Bureau?! Why is the developer who bought the land willing to risk the lives of innocent people! I have to ask someone to investigate this matter carefully!"
"Isn't reporting all the way to me?"
Jiang Ruolan stopped scrolling the phone book and looked up at Xian Zihao in shock. She put down her cell phone. "Then, what are you going to do about this? "
"I already know what happened." Xian Zihao's dark eyes focused lightly on her body. He paused before continuing in a low voice, "I know what I am doing. I will do my best to find a more balanced method to deal with this."
"A method to counterbalance? Deal with it? " Jiang Ruolan suddenly laughed. "It's just a matter of giving money to the victim's family, isn't it?"

Xian Zihao pursed his lips and said nothing. Jiang Ruolan immediately glared at him. "I knew it! I really didn't expect you, Xian Zihao to be such a person!"
She was full of anger. Xian Zihao looked at her indifferently, not angry or upset.
"Am I right? You, Xian Zihao, who has been involved in the business world for years, will use this method to solve problems? Do you only know to solve your problems with money?!"
A knot appeared on his forehead. "Jiang Ruolan, your grudge and misunderstanding against our property circle has reached tremendous."
"Bulshit! What you are trying to do right now is not something personal! How can I misunderstand it?" Jiang Ruolan scoffed and she was truly angered. "If you have the ability, go ask the bastard from the Construction Bureau to release these photos for public review. Why did they buy those photos and hide them? They had the guts to harm others, so they had the guts to shoulder it! Is your money really that great?! By using your money, can you bring back all the dead?"
Xian Zihao's gaze turned darker and his thin lips pursed into a line. Seeing Jiang Ruolan's face flush with anger and hatred, he suddenly sneered. "Looks like you still haven't found an opportunity to vent your anger."
Jiang Ruolan bit her lower lip. She hesitated for a moment, and then lowered her voice, "I don't mean anything else. Just the way you treat human life as grass makes me hot-tempered. Even if you didn't kill them, you were also involved. The way they forced them to commit suicide. They have done this without considering your investment, so once something happens, you will be the first person to be responsible!"
Xian Zihao chuckled. "You even insulted me earlier, and now you are trying to comfort my feelings?"

Xian Zihao raised his bright eyebrows and looked at Jiang Ruolan's pale face with a non-smiling smile.
Jiang Ruolan frowned and lowered her head in silence.
"Why did you come looking for me?" Xian Zihao asked.
Jiang Ruolan still kept her head down, saying nothing.
Xian Zihao narrowed his eyes. "Jiang Ruolan, don't tell me you're angry?"
As he moved, Jiang Ruolan stiffened and unwillingly raised her head. She stared at him with an unfriendly gaze. "That's right!"
Xian Zihao found it funny. "What are you angry about?"
"In solving this problem, you are willing to use the money to silence the people."
Xian Zihao looked at her for a moment, then said, "What do you want me to do? Do you want me to reveal the truth to the public? Make the public distrust my company? Don't you understand the social phenomena these days? All of this was common knowledge! I am not in a position where I can only think for myself."
"Can't there be any other way? The Deputy Chief of Construction Bureau, Vice Chief Wang, had accepted the bribe, right? He's the one who took the developer's money and went to the Bureau to get in touch with the sale of the land, right? It was he who gave those profiteers the rights, right?"
Xian Zihao did not say anything, but he silently agreed.
Jiang Ruolan took a deep breath, "Since you know all this, why didn't you find someone to deal with him? You still let him work under you, you scum! Don't try to think that I didn't know you were the big boss who dragged this thing!"
Xian Zihao clasped his hands casually on the table and looking at the woman in front of him. He laughed lightly, "Do you know why Xian Family once had military service, but then gave up on serving for the country, and switched to business? With so many people abandoning their morals to do the dirty business, they would rather not have those rights."
Jiang Ruolan was silent. Seeing she's listening, the smile in Xian Zihao's eyes deepened. "Let me give you an example. Who was the number one greedy officer under Emperor Qian Long of the Qing Dynasty?"
"Heshen!" Jiang Ruolan blurted out without thinking.
He laughed, "Yes, it's Heshen. Since you are in the news industry, and of course you are more sensitive to this field. It is clear from both official and wild history that Qian Long knows Heshen is greedy, but he still did not do anything to him. Why is it?"
She was at a loss for words.
"Of course, Deputy Chief Wang's matter should be addressed. However, it is not as easy as you think. Exposure, dismissal, seizure of political power, imprisonment, or shooting; these are all methods to deal with the bad guys in your eyes, right?"
Xian Zihao sighed. "There is no fish in the water. It cannot be punished too much and it cannot be punished too lightly. Of course, I have to give the innocent a fair, but the way things develop and progress, if I don't take things seriously, it would be a heavy blow to myself, and even more so a devastating blow to Xian Group. I need to find the right time, not be emotional, understand?"
"It's not that I didn't think about it, I just heard you say that you wanted to use the money to deal with this matter and I became furious. Perhaps what you said was a bit too much." Jiang Ruolan lowered her voice.
