The Return of the Reborn King

Chapter 488 Tat for Tat

When Leng Yunxi left without leaving any instructions, the royal counsel hesitated a bit. Under such circumstances, should he continue to prepare for the acquisition, or should he wait for the response from the Zhan family before making a decision?

However, things were developing in a completely unbelievable direction before he could even get a headache.

In addition to demanding the recovery of the taxes that Zhan Wenlan evaded due to "fake" foreign-funded enterprises, the domestic tax authorities of country C ordered him to return to China for investigation immediately after he lost the lawsuit in the UK!

This has never happened before.

What surprised the lawyer who was familiar with the tax laws of country C was that even Zhan Wenlan's father, the commander with a very special status, was asked to return to China immediately.

When he received this document, he found that there was no need to rack his brains to get that British jewelry brand into Leng Yunxi's pocket.

If the stocks of all Zhan Wenlan's companies broke through the bottom line a few days ago, the current situation is completely down!It's too late to change hands, let alone hold it in your hand and wait for the price to be sold.

Now there are only two paths left for Zhan Wenlan to choose - one is to return to China immediately and sell all the British assets in his hands at a low price; the other is to declare bankruptcy.

No matter which one Zhan Wenlan chooses, it will be easy for Leng Yunxi to control that jewelry brand.

Sure enough, one hour before Zhan Wenlan and Commander Zhan boarded the plane back to China, the royal counsel received his text message.

Straightforward and concise, just like his style, clean and neat.

During this period, the royal counsel lawyer hadn't contacted Leng Yunxi. It seemed that with Zhan Wenlan's departure, her whereabouts became more erratic and mysterious, which made him suddenly have a vague guess from the bottom of his heart.

The timing of Country C's attack is so coincidental, is there someone's influence in it?

Unfortunately, no amount of speculation is in vain.When he received a large amount of lawyer's fees transferred from Leng Yunxi, the British jewelry brand was successfully transferred to Leng Yunxi's name with a very low-key momentum.And as the first round of the strategy, the next day, everyone in Europe and the United States knew about a fashion event - Leng Yunxi would select a piece of rare jewelry listed as a national treasure in the UK for public auction, and donate it to a welfare organization in the UK as a charity fund .

Not only people in the fashion industry, but also many people in the business world received invitations to that auction.The time is set in three days.

If it is said that the change of ownership of the jewelry brand was not heard by anyone other than the two parties involved, and it was done completely without anyone noticing, then this charity auction is almost a big surprise after Zhan Wenlan's financial scandal. The news has attracted people from all directions to turn their attention to the new owner of this jewelry brand.

Ever since Commander Zhan heard what Leng Yunxi said on the phone that day, he had had an ominous premonition. Although he had experienced so many years of experience, he had already cultivated the instinct to remain calm, but when he and Zhan Wenlan got off the plane and passed At the moment of customs clearance, he was stunned as if a basin of ice water had been poured on his head.

"Hello," the two men who came were dressed in official uniforms, handed the relevant documents to Commander Zhan and Zhan Wenlan, showed them for a while, and then took them back: "Please come with us."

Unexpectedly, they were stopped at the airport where people were coming and going, and they were taken away directly.

In his whole life, except for the secret ridicule and ridicule from his wife's family when he first came out of the military camp, Commander Zhan had never been treated like this.The whole person hadn't lost his mind when he saw the two public officials turned around in a businesslike manner, and stretched out their hands to "please" them to cooperate to leave.

At that moment, looking at the passers-by who were whispering and speculating, Commander Zhan felt ashamed and angry.

For so many years, no one in the district dared to slap him in public like this!
The veins bulged, and Commander Zhan was about to rush up to grab the two of them, but a hand suddenly stretched out from the side.

It was cold, lifeless, and seemed to have no warmth at all.

Quietly clasping his wrist, Zhan Wenlan looked at his father flatly: "Dad, I hope you can keep calm."

Commander Zhan was stunned, trembling at the stagnant water in his eyes, but Zhan Wenlan's next sentence was even colder: "Since Leng Yunxi has expressed her attitude, based on what I know about her, you'd better do it." worst plans."

Commander Zhan froze, looking at his son in disbelief: "You, what are you talking about?"

Is it true that a little girl who casually puts a few cruel words on the phone, not only has to keep his head shut, but also has to be terrified and sincere!

There was bitterness in Zhan Wenlan's icy eyes, and he closed them slightly, and those eyes that were always gentle and refined gradually turned into dust.

"I just hope that when the time comes, you won't be overwhelmed."

What authority does the tax authority have to order them to return home immediately?He was "taken away" without even leaving the airport?
His father wasn't out of his wits, but was confused by Leng Yunxi's age, thinking that she was just bragging about herself, but what could be the truth?Zhan Wenlan clenched his palms slowly, even he couldn't figure it out now.

Leng Yunxi, Leng Yunxi...

He said the name silently in his heart.

Repeatedly, and confused.

Wasn't it, in the beginning, it was a mistake to follow her all the way to "Never Night" that night.

He could see the splendor on her surface, but he couldn't see her real face hidden under the glitz.

There are too many complicated and dark things hidden behind the reasons for power, family, and righteousness.

Perhaps, from the moment he intentionally approached her, the ending of this game was already doomed—the winner was king, and the loser was bandit.

Since her family has survived the crisis safely, how could they be allowed to be safe?

"Please." Seeing that they were still refusing to move, the two public officials couldn't help turning their heads and made another "please" gesture.

Commander Zhan's face turned red, and he could almost see the arteries on his neck clearly. "I'll go by myself, what's the rush!"

The two left with the uniformed public official under the surprised and speculative eyes of countless people around.

The next day, Zhan's family was shocked by electric shock.

Mrs. Zhan called her mother who was far away in the UK, crying tremblingly: "Mom, tell me, what happened?"

Mrs. Zhan has been restless since her son-in-law and grandson left. When she suddenly heard her daughter's phone call, her whole body shook like a leaf in the wind, "What's wrong? Don't cry, what happened? Talk to me slowly."

"The phone calls between Wen Lan and his father suddenly failed. Since yesterday, there has been no news. The person I sent to pick them up suddenly disappeared. Mom, what happened? Why are they in such a hurry to return home? Don't you know? Tell me, please, tell me quickly. " Mrs. Zhan hasn't worried much since she married her husband.Everyone in the circle is envious of her son's success. Now that her son and husband have lost contact all of a sudden, she is going crazy.

Old Mrs. Zhan was holding a cane, her feet went limp all of a sudden, her hands loosened, and she collapsed on the ground.

Panting heavily, he held his chest tightly with his right hand, and layers of cold sweat broke out on his face.

"Old lady!" The old housekeeper hurried up, took out the pills from the emergency medical kit, and let the old lady take it quickly. Seeing that her eyes were trembling uncontrollably, she couldn't help answering the phone.

"Mom, Mom, what's wrong with you? Talk, are you feeling unwell? Say something, don't scare me." Mrs. Zhan's voice trembled more seriously, and she was about to faint.

The old housekeeper quickly responded: "It's nothing, madam, don't worry, the old madam just got a little anxious all of a sudden. Just ask a doctor to see it later. Don't worry, I'm here."

"Housekeeper, I..." Mrs. Zhan was so anxious that she almost lost her hands and feet.He was about to say something, but was interrupted by the old housekeeper.

"The young master and the master should just be invited to perform normal procedures. They will be fine in a few days. Don't worry, there will be absolutely no problems." He said these words in vain, without any confidence at all.But now, they can only rely on this unfounded comfort to ease the other party's emotions.

Mrs. Zhan felt dizzy for a while. After waking up, she was already sleeping on the bedside. Her first reaction was to call her daughter, but the old housekeeper stopped her.

"Old madam, it's useless to say anything now. The most important thing is that the young master and the others can solve the problem as soon as possible. Otherwise, even if you break your mouth, the madam will not feel at ease."

Mrs. Zhan fell back on the bed in a daze, and covered her face with her hands mournfully: "It's a crime. What a crime it is!"

The old butler lowered his head sadly, his face pale.

Three days later, when the dark night fell and Leng Yunxi, dressed in a velvet blue dress and dress, slowly exposed his ankles from the Bentley, all the well-known and unknown media in London focused their long shots on she.

Those ethereal and cold eyes are like a wave of lake water, and the narrow and long eyes are like the most transparent mirror, which can print the whole world in, making people unable to help but want to take a peek.

I have never seen anyone walk on the red carpet with such an extreme combination of lazy and gorgeous temperament.

It looks like floating clouds, gradually swaying on the red land, and it also looks like the top-quality creek iris printed in the blood-colored soil. Just by looking at it, people's hearts and souls will be captivated.

The most astonishing thing is that she wears Queen Mary's Crown of Girls of the British Empire on her forehead.

All the media went crazy, frantically began to focus, and frantically turned on the flash.

It is one of Queen Elizabeth's most well-known tiaras, and it appears on British pound notes and coins. In 1893, the crown was given to Princess Mary as a gift to celebrate her marriage to the Duke of York, later King George V.The crown is in the shape of a scroll and hollow leaf, and the diamonds are paved in the gold and silver setting. The perfection is like a dream.

And it is the charity treasure donated by Leng Yunxi tonight.

At the same time that everyone was going crazy for this extravagant charity auction, a sensational news came from City B that day.

Commander Zhan, who stayed in City B for three months but his position was pending because of Leng's family's "assistance in the investigation", finally got his transfer order.

It's a pity that it's not some good news about being promoted, but an indefinite "suspension investigation"——

And this moment happened to be the third day after Leng Yunxi announced the holding of the charity dinner. It seemed that she had planned the time well from the beginning.

On the most desperate day of the Zhan family, she also perfectly opened a gorgeous feast in England...
