Chapter 195: Calling the Police!

In the lobby of XinYue Group.

“You bunch of useless idiots, what are you stopping me for?”

“Get out of my way! I’m the mother of your company’s boss, do you dare to mess with me?”

“And that trash… Shen Fei is my son-in-law, do you understand?”

“Don’t mess with me. If you anger me, I’ll have your boss fire you!”

Zhang Xiulian stood with her hands on her hips, angrily pointing at the group of people in front of her, her face full of malice.

This left the receptionist, the security guards, and the employees who had heard the commotion all quite confused.

This woman in front of them was actually President Han’s biological mother, and Shen Fei’s mother-in-law?

“Auntie, please come back another day, President Han is out handling business today!”

A receptionist, who had been instructed by Han Xinyan, spoke politely.

“She’s out handling business? Never mind, I’ll wait for her in her office!”

Zhang Xiulian straightened her back, puffed out her chest like a victorious hen, and strode forward.

She hadn’t taken more than a few steps when she was stopped by security.

“What are you doing? I’ll have you fired later, do you believe me?”

Seeing that she was stopped, Zhang Xiulian threatened angrily.

After she and Han Jian had been unable to find Han Xinyan’s family at their previous residence, she had been trying to find out about their movements nearby.

Although she couldn’t get the address of the family’s new place, she did hear that Shen Fei had recently started a new company.

Most importantly, Han Xinyan had resigned and became the general manager at the new company!

The position was the general manager, a very high-ranking one!

When she learned this, she was ecstatic and couldn’t sleep for excitement.

She woke up early, put on some makeup, and immediately came to the company.

But to her surprise, she was stopped right at the door.

She also knew that Han Xinyan wasn’t absent, but probably hiding in the office, not wanting to see her!

That brat, she really thought I couldn’t figure out her thoughts?

The employees were all helpless about the situation.

They had no love for such unreasonable people!

But this person’s background was something they couldn’t afford to offend.

At the moment, in the general manager’s office.

Han Xinyan watched the scene of Zhang Xiulian arguing with the receptionist and security guards, feeling a headache coming on.

She picked up her phone and dialed her brother, Han Lixin.

“Sis, what’s going on?” Han Lixin asked, confused.

“Are you available right now? Mom’s here causing a scene. If I don’t go out, she’ll keep making a fuss. I don’t want to see her, you know? Can you come over and take her back?”

Han Xinyan said with sadness.

“What’s the matter? Is she up to her tricks again?”

Hearing this, Han Lixin immediately asked in frustration.

After a pause, he continued with a bit of surprise, “But sis, I’m out of town! I won’t be back in Shenzhen until tomorrow! I can only call her for now!”

“Alright, you call her then!”

Although this wasn’t the best solution, there was nothing else she could do for now.

After hanging up, Han Xinyan sighed deeply.

She could only hope that her brother’s call would convince Zhang Xiulian to leave.

In the lobby.

While Zhang Xiulian was still arguing with the receptionist and security guards, her phone in her pocket vibrated.

When she saw Han Lixin’s name, her expression changed immediately.

“This damn brat, she’s been telling that little bastard, huh!”

Without hesitation, she pressed reject.

Seeing this, Han Xinyan could no longer tolerate it.

She stood up, ready to confront Zhang Xiulian herself.

At that moment, a familiar figure appeared in the doorway.

It was Shen Fei.

“Mr. Shen!!!”

After parting ways with Jiang Tiancheng and Hu Yuantai at the Flower West Moon Hall, Shen Fei had driven straight back to XinYue Group.

He had just arrived downstairs when he heard the commotion inside.

When the employees saw Shen Fei, they greeted him respectfully.

“My son-in-law, you’ve finally shown up. You don’t know, these idiots didn’t stop anyone, but they dared stop your mother-in-law!”

Upon seeing Shen Fei, Zhang Xiulian immediately became arrogant, speaking with a mixture of grievances and a slight sniffle.

This caused Shen Fei to furrow his brow, his expression not friendly.

“Who are you calling an idiot?”

His voice carried a bit of anger, but his words were full of protection for the company staff.

Zhang Xiulian froze upon hearing this.

The arrogance disappeared, and she quickly corrected herself.

“No, no, you misheard! But you’re here, that’s good. I want to see Xinyan, how long has it been since I saw her! Don’t lie to me, I know she’s in the company!”

“What do you want?” Shen Fei didn’t plan on negotiating with her. He said coldly.

“This isn’t the place to talk business, let’s go to your office!” Zhang Xiulian’s usual harsh tone was replaced with a slightly affectionate tone.

But Shen Fei didn’t soften his demeanor; he just walked ahead silently.

The employees who had gathered around quickly dispersed, watching Zhang Xiulian follow Shen Fei into the elevator.

Once the two figures disappeared, they couldn’t help but whisper.

“Tsk, that mother-in-law is quite something!”

“President Han seems gentle, but how is her mom so harsh and unreasonable?”

“I heard, before our two bosses started their own company, every time they met, this mother-in-law would either frown or speak sarcastically, no kind words at all. She even pressured President Han to divorce Shen Fei and marry a rich CEO!”

“My god, what’s wrong with Shen Fei’s mother-in-law? No wonder President Han and Shen Fei acted the way they did!”

“She got what she deserved! She’ll pay for those actions sooner or later!”

“She’s so old, isn’t she embarrassed? If I were President Han, I’d definitely cut ties with her!”

“Yeah, who could stand someone like that!”

At the same time.

Zhang Xiulian had followed Shen Fei into the general manager’s office.

“Xinyan, how long has it been since you and mom have seen each other? Mom’s come to find you, how can you treat me like this? You ungrateful girl!”

Seeing Han Xinyan, Zhang Xiulian spoke with a bit of blame.

But her tone was no longer harsh.

This pitiful appearance made both Shen Fei and Han Xinyan silently applaud.

Such acting, it’s a pity she’s not an actress.

“Stop acting, there’s no one else in this office!” Han Xinyan said coldly.

“How can you say that, daughter? I just want to be good to you! Before, it was my fault, I was confused. But now I’ve changed! We’re family, aren’t we? There’s no overnight feud between family. Your father and I realized our mistakes, so can’t you forgive us? Otherwise, our family will really be a joke!” Zhang Xiulian said with a tone of regret.

“Don’t play the emotional card, it’s useless! When you spoke harshly to Yueyue, did you think of me as your daughter? When you pressured me to divorce Shen Fei and marry a rich CEO, did you think about our family ties? Now that you see us starting a company, you’ve changed your tone?”

Han Xinyan felt completely hopeless about her parents, but saying this still made her feel a bit sad inside.

After a pause, she spoke coldly.

“There’s nothing more to say, what do you actually want?”

“This… Xinyan, your father and I don’t want much, we just saw you starting a company. We’re not capable, one’s a security guard, the other’s a cleaner. If we told others, it would be embarrassing for you, right? So your dad and I were thinking, can we have a position in your company? It would relieve some of your burden, and we’d have some face to show too.”

Zhang Xiulian hesitated, then revealed her true purpose.

“I see. What kind of position do you think suits you?” Han Xinyan asked.

“For me, the head of logistics is enough! As for your dad, that useless guy, he can be the security team leader! But I’ll tell you in advance, we just want to lighten your load a little, so you can relax a bit!” Zhang Xiulian said awkwardly.

Hearing this, Shen Fei couldn’t help but laugh.

“And the salary? Any demands?”

“Well, we’re family, you wouldn’t be stingy with us, right? Just give us something decent, as long as it’s not embarrassing!”

Seeing them ask these questions, Zhang Xiulian’s eyes flashed with smugness.

No matter how powerful they were, didn’t they still fall into her grasp now?

“Dream on!”

The next second, Han Xinyan said coldly.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiulian was stunned.

“What did you say?”

“I said, you’re dreaming! Let’s not talk about whether you have the ability. Just based on what you’ve said to me before, I no longer care about our family ties! But I know how to be grateful. I remember the kindness you gave me when I was raised. But from now on, we only have that bond. I won’t avoid supporting you in your old age. I’ll give you the pension you deserve. As for your other demands, I suggest you stop! Otherwise, cutting ties will be easy!”

Taking this opportunity, Han Xinyan said everything she had been holding back.

“You! You ungrateful girl! I’m your mother!” Zhang Xiulian was furious, pointing at Han Xinyan.

Seeing that the two of them remained indifferent, Zhang Xiulian’s anger boiled over even more.

“You’re trying to make me die of anger! You ungrateful girl! Your father and I raised you and your brother with great difficulty, and now you’re threatening to sever ties with me!”

“Today, no matter what you say, your father and I must have some position in your company, or I’ll let everyone in Shenzhen know what a sham this company really is!”

Zhang Xiulian started causing trouble.

After all, in her familiar social circle, she had made bold claims, and she was determined to become a high-ranking executive in her daughter’s office. If she returned without accomplishing this, she couldn’t imagine how she would be ridiculed.

“Fine, do it your way! If you’re upright, you don’t need to worry about shadows. Do as you wish! But I warn you, you’re already harassing me now, and I have the right to sue you!” Shen Fei said coldly.

“Tsk, you little brat, what, you want to call the police?” Zhang Xiulian glared at him, her face full of anger.

“I’m not wasting any more time with you. Either let me and your father come to the company, or give us 30 million each! Otherwise, no one will have it easy!”

Seeing that Shen Fei and Han Xinyan were so resolute, Zhang Xiulian lost interest in continuing to argue and simply demanded money.

This only made Han Xinyan even more disappointed. “No money!”

“Fine! You forced me to do this!” Zhang Xiulian gritted her teeth, opened the door, and began shouting outside.

Seeing this, Han Xinyan’s eyes immediately turned red.

“What should we do?” Shen Fei frowned and asked.

“We can’t give her money. Once we open our wallets, they’ll become insatiably greedy and want more! Giving them positions is out of the question! I can’t let your hard work be ruined by them!”

After saying this, Han Xinyan paused, seemingly making a decision, and calmly uttered two words:

“Call the police!”

“Are you really going to do that?” Shen Fei asked.

“Yes!” Han Xinyan nodded.

Seeing this, Shen Fei stopped trying to persuade her and immediately took out his phone and called Zhong Qi.

This was a domestic issue; there was no need to involve other officers!

“Shen Fei, what’s going on?” Zhong Qi was surprised to receive Shen Fei’s call.

“Captain Zhong, I’ll be direct. Can you come over? I have some family matters, and I need your help!” Shen Fei said plainly.

“Huh?” Zhong Qi was now puzzled.
