Chapter 282 Utter Defeat
Shen Fang stood blankly in the center of the apartment, feeling as if she had fallen into an ice cave.
Li Zhanchuan's tall figure stood at the doorway, his gaze cold and indifferent, like the Grim Reaper descending.
The air was so heavy it was suffocating. Shen Fang felt as if an invisible hand was gripping her throat, making it difficult to even breathe.
Her eyes trembled as she struggled to speak: "What...what do you want to do?"
Li Zhanchuan slowly walked in, looking down at her with a mocking smile on his lips: "I should be asking you what you want to do."
Shen Fang's heart pounded, and cold sweat beaded on her forehead.
She gritted her teeth, her eyes darting around, desperately trying to think of a way to escape.
No, she can't give up like this!
She took a step back abruptly, feigning composure, and said, "President Li, please don't do anything rash. Although I failed, you have no evidence to prove that I ordered the attack on Lin Chuyue."
She clenched her fists, her voice trembling slightly: "Besides... you don't want to make things too big, do you?"
Li Zhanchuan chuckled, his gaze so sharp it seemed to see right through her disguise.
Do you think you still have the right to negotiate?
Shen Fang's face froze instantly, and her lips trembled slightly.
She knew she had very few chips left, but she was unwilling to give up—
She has worked so hard for so many years, how can she just watch herself fail completely?
She must have another way... she must!
She took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down, and suddenly put on a fake smile, saying in a low voice, "President Li, no matter what, we have cooperated before, why do you have to be so ruthless?"
She lowered her voice, a calculating glint in her eyes: "If you spare my life, I can tell you some valuable information."
Li Zhanchuan's expression remained unchanged, and his tone was indifferent: "Oh? What information?"
Seeing that he seemed somewhat interested, Shen Fang felt a glimmer of hope and quickly said, "About... your father."
She stared intently at Li Zhanchuan's expression, trying to catch a glimpse of wavering in his eyes.
However, Li Zhanchuan's gaze remained indifferent, even carrying a hint of sarcasm: "You think I would care?"
Shen Fang's heart sank to the bottom instantly.
It’s over.
She finally realized that she had no chance to turn things around.
Li Zhanchuan stopped looking at her, and slowly took out his phone, dialed a number, and said in a calm but oppressive tone: "You can make your move now."
Shen Fang's eyes widened suddenly, and her expression changed drastically: "You—!"
"boom--"
The door was pushed open, and several uniformed police officers walked in, their eyes coldly fixed on Shen Fang.
"Ms. Shen Fang, we have received a report that you are suspected of commercial fraud, stock market manipulation, and employing criminals to carry out illegal activities. You are now formally arrested."
Shen Fang was struck dumb, took a step back, and shook her head frantically: "No! Impossible!"
She glared venomously at Li Zhanchuan and cried out hoarsely, "It was you! You framed me!"
Li Zhanchuan remained calm, his hands in his pockets, looking down at her with a composed voice: "Framed? No, you brought this on yourself."
The police officer stepped forward, took out handcuffs, and with a "click," cuffed Shen Fang's hands.
Shen Fang's body trembled violently, and fear finally surfaced in her eyes.
She struggled violently, screaming, "No! You can't arrest me! I'm the chairman of the Shen Group! I'm innocent!"
However, no one paid any attention to her cries.
She was roughly pinned down by the police and dragged out of the room.
Li Zhanchuan watched her being taken away, his eyes showing no emotion whatsoever.
Shen Fang finally met the end she deserved.
Lin Chuyue's decision
At the same time, Lin Chuyue stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing calmly at the city in the night.
The news of Shen Fang's arrest has spread throughout the business world.
A storm of power struggles has finally come to an end.
Gu Yanchuan sat on the sofa, lazily picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said in a calm tone, "She has finally collapsed."
Lin Chuyue smiled slightly, her expression calm: "Yes, she has fallen."
But a hint of coldness lingered deep within her gaze.
Shen Fang's downfall does not mean that everything is over.
Her revenge has only just begun.
Gu Yanchuan glanced at her, seemingly seeing through her thoughts, and asked casually but with a hint of meaning, "What do you plan to do next?"
Lin Chuyue slowly turned around, a faint smile playing on her lips: "Of course... it's time to close the net."
Gu Yanchuan raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes: "It seems you already have a plan."
Lin Chuyue didn't answer, but instead picked up her phone and dialed a number.
After the call connected, she said softly, "We can begin."
The person on the other end of the phone replied in a low voice, "Understood."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Chuyue slowly curled the corners of her lips into a smile.
Shen Fang was just the first step; next, she would have to deal with an even bigger enemy.
Lin Yun, the Shen family members, and even... her father, Lin Zhengguo.
This game has only just begun.
