Chapter 389 - Something Happened to Li Mu Chen

Zhang Yu Han was browsing through a few documents when he heard a knock on the door. "Come in."

There was a brief pause before his ȧssistant, Xiao Ye walked in with a few ring folders with him. "Director Zhang, these are the accounts that you requested." He stopped at the table and placed the folders on the table.

"Just leave them there. I'll take a look at them later."

Xiao Ye nodded and left the room silently.

Once his ȧssistant had left, Zhang Yu Han pushed aside the documents in front of him and took the accounting book. As he continued to read the accounting report, the frown on his face deepened. 

Because of the incident in B City, Zhang Yu Han had spent a lot of money to help with the investigation to help clear up his wife's name. Qi Ming Wei had helped him to investigate and had used his power to hasten some process, and Zhang Yu Han had to spend a lot of money to pay for the resource.

His hand reached for another accounting files and read the account statement. As he looked at the numbers, a thought crossed his mind and Zhang Yu Han was starting to get a bit uneasy.

At this time, his phone beside him chimed. Zhang Yu Han stared at the caller ID and slid his finger on the screen. 

"Zhang Yu Han," Qi Ming Wei's voice could be heard from the other line. "Something happened to your wife's cousin, Li Mu Chen, in prison. Right now, she was badly injured and was in a coma."

"I told you to look after her, but not like this."

"It wasn't me," Qi Ming Wei spoke quickly. "Someone else did that. According to official report, Li Mu Chen had an argument with her in-mates. A fight broke up and she was badly trashed."

Knowing Li Mu Chen, it was not impossible for her to offend her in-mates and was beaten badly because of her attitude. However, Zhang Yu Han quickly found out that something was not right.

"Didn't you tell me that she was kept isolated?" Zhang Yu Han asked.

"Exactly. There was never a fight. I received another report. Earlier, Li Mu Chen was brought out from her cell to meet a visitor. Unfortunately, she tried to run away and was beaten by the correction officer. The fight with an in-mates was just something they used to cover up the situation."

"What?"

"We haven't got into the interesting part," Qi Ming Wei chuckled angrily. "The officer who beat Li Mu Chen seemed to vanish out of thin air. Although he was at the scene when they found Li Mu Chen in the field, this officer seemed to disappear when the others came. They could not find this man."

A thought came to his mind and Zhang Yu Han spoke, "Before Li Mu Chen's trial started, I remember that her brother mentioned that there was someone else who was helping his sister. Could it be that her helper came to threaten her to keep her mouth shut?"

Qi Ming Wei thought over his words and spoke, "It will be hard to find out the truth with Li Mu Chen's condition right now. We didn't know who was the person who helped to take her out. The surveillance system was not helping and no one ran into this mysterious guard or officer."

"I have a thought," Zhang Yu Han spoke. "I was looking into the accounting book before you called. Qi Ming Wei, what if the person who harmed you the last time was in touch with Li Mu Chen."

"What do you mean?"

"Listen to me first and tell me what you think," Zhang Yu Han said. "I happened to be the major investor to Tourism Project in B City. What if this person was aware that Zhang Group contributed a lot of money to Qi Family every year. To take you down, naturally, this person will need to cripple your financial backer."

"But this person did not expect that MH Group was willing to cooperate with your wife and take over the project. Your investment in Tourism City should be alright."

"It's alright." Zhang Yu Han's lips curled into a smile that did not reach his eyes. "But to uncover the truth, we do spend a lot of money." 

He had to sell some of their ȧssets at a low cost to get quick cash and pay those men who had helped him. 

"You haven't found out about the man who tried to hurt you the last time?" Zhang Yu Han spoke.

"I only know that he goes by the name Z," Qi Ming Wei said. "No one had ever seen this man before. We caught his subordinates but according to them, they have never seen their boss's face."

"Sorry," Zhang Yu Han spoke after another long silence between them. "These things would not happen if I did not ask for your help to clear up my wife's name."

More than a year ago, Zhang Yu Han had asked Qi's family to help him find a man who would be able to clear Li Qin Yao's name from a site accident in Capital City. While finding evidence and weaken the power behind Zhao Wei, Qi Ming Wei had wiped out the major power that had been controlling Capital City for years.

Now that the person was no longer around, Qi Ming Wei had wanted to expand his influence and power by taking control over Capital City. However, it was not easy.

Seeing that the last group was wiped out, a lot of other groups had wanted to try their luck.

Having control over Capital City would be very beneficial to Qi's family. However, it was not easy to strengthen his position.

There were always threats to harm Qi Ming Wei. The others wanted to take the chance to bring Qi Ming Wei down before his power and influence in Capital City solidified.

If this person had harmed the Zhang Group, the Qi family would lose their financial backup and it would be hard to take control of Capital City.

"You don't have to be sorry," Qi Ming Wei spoke. "We were looking into expanding into Capital City and your wife's situation helped us to be in power. Zhang Yu Han, you don't have to think too much about this. I will find this person soon. In the meantime, I will ask my men to continue and protect you and everyone else."
