Chapter 579: Chapter 580: Don't Waste My Time

In a seaside villa located on the southeast coast of Zhonghai, soft afternoon sunlight streamed through the large floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating a white-themed hall.

On a beige sofa, Liu Qingshan, with his hair slicked back, held a biography in his hand. Wearing a pair of reading glasses, he was slowly savoring the book.

Dressed in casual home attire, Liu's wife, who was middle-aged but still charming, walked gracefully to her husband's side with a tray of freshly brewed green tea. After setting down the tray, she complained, "Qingshan, you've been reading all morning. Is it that fascinating?"

Liu Qingshan turned another page and said leisurely, "Isn't it peaceful? What's wrong with reading?"

"You might find it peaceful, but I'm at home alone every day," Liu's wife said discontentedly. "When Mingyu was still here, at least I had someone to talk to. Now that you're back, Yuer goes out on her own. You heartless man, don't you care how bored I am at home?"

"Isn't Minghao still around?" Liu Qingshan replied.

"Can we count on that boy? He's always running off somewhere," Liu's wife said, even more displeased.

Liu Qingshan frowned, knowing he'd neglected his wife over the years. He finally closed the book and smiled, "Alright, alright, I won't read anymore. I'll chat with you for a while."

Liu's wife beamed with delight, easily satisfied.

Just as she was about to say something, Liu Qingshan's phone rang on the coffee table.

Liu's wife picked it up and saw the caller ID. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. "Oh, it's Yang Chen calling. Our son-in-law has never called us on his own before."

Liu Qingshan raised an eyebrow and said, "He never comes to us for no reason. Expecting him to say something nice is as likely as climbing to the sky. I'd rather he didn't bother me."

"How can you say that? Even though Yuer and Yang Chen aren't in a conventional relationship, he's still our son-in-law. Since we've accepted him, we can't just treat him like a stranger," Liu's wife said, handing the phone to her husband.

Yang Chen had no interest in building a relationship with Gao Yue. He said indifferently, "You heard what I just said. Go to jail obediently. Your boss can't save you. If you dare to have any crooked thoughts, I'll personally break your neck."

Gao Yue was a man who had experienced battles. He clearly felt that Yang Chen's gaze carried an overwhelming pressure that was far more suffocating than ordinary killing intent! Moreover, from Yang Chen's words to Liu Qingshan, it was obvious that Yang Chen didn't fear Liu Qingshan at all. He only refrained from acting against Liu Qingshan because of Liu Mingyu. In this case, relying on Liu Qingshan seemed impossible!

But accepting punishment, going to jail, and confiscating his assets, how could he be willing? So he smiled obsequiously and said, "Young Master Yang, this is my first time making such a foolish mistake. I was misled by a few subordinates and lost my mind for a moment. Everyone makes mistakes sometimes. Can you be merciful this once?"

"Don't waste my time with nonsense. You're not acting like a man," Yang Chen frowned and turned to Cai Yan. "Prepare a few confession statements for him to sign. Write down everything that needs to be written. Follow the procedures. Once it's done, come out and tell me about your sister."

After saying this, Yang Chen left the interrogation room on his own.

Gao Yue wanted to say something but didn't know how to begin. He gritted his teeth, pulled out his phone, and dialed Liu Qingshan's number, disregarding the situation. Even though seeking help from Liu Qingshan seemed futile, he had to try.

As soon as the call connected, Gao Yue shouted, "Boss! You have to save me! If I go to jail, who will help you out?"

At that moment, Liu Qingshan, sitting on the sofa in the villa with a grim expression, seemed ready to spit fire from his eyes. He said in a low voice, "You good-for-nothing! Go rot in jail!"

After yelling, Liu Qingshan immediately hung up the phone.

Seeing her husband so furious, and knowing it was caused by Yang Chen, Liu's wife panicked and tried to console him, "Qingshan, don't be like this. Yang Chen has a good heart. After all, he's family. Don't take it too seriously."

"Humph, good heart, really family," Liu Qingshan said through gritted teeth, fully aware that there was nothing he could do against Yang Chen. He had long known that Yang Chen's abilities were beyond his reach, but he thought that with his daughter Liu Mingyu around, Yang Chen would show him some respect and treat him as an elder, helping him out when he encountered trouble.

But he never expected that when it came to matters of principle, Yang Chen would be so ruthless and uncompromising. If you tried to be tough, he was even tougher!

Thinking about Yang Chen's words, "I don't even need my own father," Liu Qingshan's anger turned into a bitter laugh. Eventually, he burst into a fit of uncontrollable laughter, sitting alone on the sofa and laughing wildly, which left his wife bewildered and unsure whether he was happy or angry.
