Villain: After Intercepting the Female Lead, the Protagonist Collapses

Chapter 138: Young Master, My Cold Syndrome Is Acting Up Again…

Jiang Che was enjoying the ultimate massage from the young girl when he received a call back from his mother, Su Shanshan.

“I’ve found out that the source of the funds indeed has a problem! This billion was transferred in twenty installments from twenty different accounts around the world.”

“The person who acquired Star Game Company is named Lin Nan, an illegitimate son of the Lin family in Tianhai City. He has little status in the family and couldn’t possibly have this much money. Recently, he has also acquired many luxury cars and villas. This person is suspicious!” Su Shanshan said gravely. Upon thorough investigation, she had discovered the issue. “I’ve already sent a lawyer and reported it to the police.”

“That’s good. Fortunately, we cut our losses in time.” Jiang Che said with a smile. Although this matter wouldn’t fundamentally impact the Jiang family, ignoring it might let others think the Jiang family would sell shares to anyone, which wouldn’t be good.

“How did you know about this, and how did you know there was a problem with this guy?” Su Shanshan asked in a puzzled tone. She had only sold the shares at ten in the morning and hadn’t had time to tell Jiang Che, yet he called her directly.

“That’s my little secret, Mom, don’t ask.” fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

“Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now. Remember to bring Ah Qing home for dinner when you have time.” With that, Su Shanshan hung up. Jiang Che didn’t want to say more, and she didn’t want to pry.

Everyone has their secrets, and she wasn’t one to be overly curious. The more mysterious Jiang Che was, the stronger he seemed. As a mother, she shared in his glory and shame!

…

After hanging up, Jiang Che noticed Ah Qing sitting next to him, her jade feet wrapped in white silk resting on the coffee table. At this time, the other maids had left the living room, leaving only Jiang Che and Ah Qing.

“What’s wrong with you?” Jiang Che frowned at Ah Qing’s flushed face, asking curiously. Could the little maid have caught a cold recently?

“Young master, my cold syndrome is acting up… I need your help to suppress the cold poison inside me.” Ah Qing said shyly, but it was something she couldn’t help.

Suffering from this strange illness, she was quite troubled. Fortunately, she had met her skilled young master; otherwise, she wouldn’t know what to do. When the cold syndrome flares up, it is extremely uncomfortable!

The pain is unimaginable for most people, and only her young master could temporarily suppress it. Meeting her young master was the luckiest thing in her life!

Jiang Che nodded understandingly. No wonder her complexion was off.

So, her cold syndrome had flared up. Since learning the ‘Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles,’ Jiang Che had gained a different understanding of medicine and could try its effects.

…

In the office of Star Game Company.

“Mr. Lin, this is the share transfer agreement. If there are no issues, please sign it.” A beautiful woman in professional attire handed the transfer agreement to Lin Nan with a smile.

She sized up the man in front of her, wondering. Being able to take out a billion to acquire Star Game Company, he was clearly not an ordinary person. But doesn’t he know that the gaming market in Jiuzhou was already saturated?

She really couldn’t understand Lin Nan’s behavior. To put it bluntly, he had spent a billion on a nearly bankrupt gaming company. Did he not research the market before the acquisition? Or was he a rich family’s son, using the family money to start a business?

After reviewing the contract, confirming there were no issues, Lin Nan signed it directly. He had his plans. He had acquired many future game development technologies through the sign-in system.

Once he acquired this game company, he could quickly accumulate his first wealth. Thinking about his future happy life, punching Jiang Che and reclaiming Shen Qingqiu, he couldn’t help but fantasize.

“Mr. Lin, from now on, you are the chairman of our company. My name is Chen Yudie, and I will be your personal secretary.” Chen Yudie said with a smile. Before Lin Nan arrived, she had been appointed president of the company by Su Shanshan. Now that there was a chairman, she would start over.

But she didn’t mind. Su Shanshan had treated her well over the years, and she had saved enough money. Starting over wasn’t a big deal.

“Hello, I’m Lin Nan…” Lin Nan said with a smile, a flash of greed in his eyes. This woman had a great figure and was very beautiful.

Although not as beautiful as his cousin Shen Qingqiu, she was still a rare beauty. Thinking that such a beauty would be his secretary, he felt excited!

A secretary with work to do…

As Lin Nan fantasized about his future, a middle-aged man holding documents and a group of police officers pushed the door open.

“What do you want?” Lin Nan asked, slightly annoyed. He spoke with confidence, as he was now the company’s boss.

“Mr. Lin, you are suspected of illegal fundraising and money laundering. Regarding your acquisition of Jiang’s Star Game Company, which may affect our company’s reputation, we are filing a lawsuit against you. This is a lawyer’s letter.” The middle-aged man adjusted his glasses and handed the lawyer’s letter to Lin Nan, his expression serious.

“What money laundering?” Lin Nan looked bewildered at the lawyer who had come to him. Damn, when did he launder money?

And which Jiang family is this? The system just had him sign the share transfer contract. He didn’t know about anything else. So now he was confused. Had he just become the company’s boss only to end up in jail?

“Mr. Lin, you are suspected of money laundering, and the amount is huge. We are now investigating according to the law. Please come with us.” The leading officer glanced at Lin Nan and had his men handcuff him and take him away.

This case was serious. If the money was illegally obtained, it would be a big deal, enough to keep this guy in jail for life. They had to take him back for a thorough investigation!

Lin Nan, still in a daze, didn’t resist. In Jiuzhou, resisting arrest is a serious crime, unless he didn’t want to live there anymore. Besides, he wasn’t worried. Everything was done through the system, so they probably wouldn’t find anything.

If necessary, he could ask the Shen family for help. With his mother’s connections, they should help him. But he didn’t understand why they were investigating his funds.

“Which Jiang family are you from?” Lin Nan asked the lawyer, feeling a bad premonition.

“The Jiang family in Linjiang City.” The lawyer looked at him with a condescending gaze. You acquired our subsidiary, and you don’t even know which family we belong to?

“The Jiang family…” Lin Nan frowned, realizing it was Jiang Che’s family.

Damn, the system handed him a subsidiary of the Jiang family, pushing him into the fire pit. He didn’t think Jiang Che would be generous. This whole situation was definitely caused by Jiang Che.

“System, will they find anything?” Lin Nan asked anxiously in his mind. If anything went wrong, he was finished. He didn’t think his family would go to great lengths to save him.

“Please do not worry, host. Any reward given by the system is obtained through legal means…” The system replied calmly.

Lin Nan sighed in relief and got into the police car. As long as it wasn’t money laundering, he was safe.

Chen Yudie watched Lin Nan’s departure with a strange expression. She had thought he was a wealthy family’s son out for experience, but he turned out to be involved in money laundering?

…

“Name?”

“Lin Nan.”

“Gender?”

“Male.”

“Place of origin?”

“Jiangzhou, Tianhai City, Lin family.”

“Tell us, where did your money come from?” In the interrogation room, the police officer glanced at Lin Nan and asked indifferently.

They had contacted Tianhai City and investigated Lin Nan. Although he was born into a wealthy family, he had little status and couldn’t have such wealth, especially not so suddenly.

“My money came from stock trading…” Lin Nan said after a moment of thought. It was the only reasonable excuse.

“Then why was the money for acquiring Star Game Company transferred from overseas accounts? And the cardholders weren’t you!” The middle-aged officer glared at Lin Nan, hoping to find a flaw in his story.

“I choose not to answer that. I request a lawyer.” Lin Nan replied calmly, unafraid of the officer’s aggressive attitude.

This matter was too complicated to explain, and they wouldn’t find anything quickly. He just needed to stall for time.

The middle-aged officer stared at Lin Nan for a moment but said nothing, returning his phone to him. He couldn’t force a confession, so they would have to wait and investigate further.

Lin Nan took his phone and quickly called his mother, “Mom, I’ve been framed. Get the Shen family to save me!”
