Chapter 127: Name a Price

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After Lu Shiyuan was released by the police station, the dedicated paparazzi immediately released the news.

Three to four hours had passed since then.

Holding a press conference was not a small matter. It must be the result of a serious discussion between the board of directors of the company.

Moreover, the other shareholders were present, which meant that the press conference was the result of everyone’s discussion.

As the president, Lu Shiyuan had not appeared for a long time. Naturally, people would think that Lu Shiyuan had a different opinion from Lin Shanchu and the other shareholders, so he did not come on purpose.

After all, after Jing Ming passed away three years ago, Lu Shiyuan did not make any statements as the president of the company.

The public would think that Lu Shiyuan was still arrogant and conceited. He was unwilling to take a stand on Jing Ming’s matter and take responsibility.

In comparison, Lin Shanchu was willing to stand up and express her stance, which made her seem more responsible.

No one would think that Lin Shanchu had colluded with the shareholders to set up a trap against Lu Shiyuan.

They would only think that Lu Shiyuan was a cold-blooded and irresponsible capitalist.

As a result, their impression of Lu Shiyuan became even worse.

The reporters at the scene were still afraid of Lu Shiyuan’s identity, so they did not dare to ask overly sharp questions.

The audience in the live broadcast room did not care about this. [Lu Shiyuan probably doesn’t dare to come, right?]

[The more he doesn’t dare to take responsibility, the more guilty he is.]

[I finally understand why his relationship with that Tang woman is so ambiguous. It’s because he and Lin Shanchu aren’t on the same side. Is he even worthy of being with Lin Shanchu?]

[I really love a responsible person in charge like Lin Shanchu. Big Sister, you can do it!]

[I hope Lin Shanchu can kick Lu Shiyuan out and snatch the Lu Corporation over.]

The reporters were more tactful when it came to questions related to Lu Shiyuan.

“May I know when Mr. Lu Shiyuan will arrive?”

“It should be soon.”

Lin Shanchu’s tone was very serious, but her eyes subconsciously darted to the door, an anxious look on her face.

Her expression undoubtedly confirmed everyone’s guess.

Lu Shiyuan was so arrogant that he did not want to attend the press conference or make a statement.

The audience started chastising Lu Shiyuan in the live broadcast room again.

At this moment, something happened about one kilometer away from Yong Shui Pavilion.

A truck collided with an expensive black car.

The car braked suddenly. Lu Shiyuan’s body leaned forward before crashing backward violently.

He had been watching the live broadcast the entire time and was holding back his anger.

At this moment, it was already on the verge of exploding.

“What happened?”

Lu Shiyuan’s voice was as cold as ice.

Zhou Yan gazed forward. “We crashed into a truck.”

The truck driver had already gotten out of his truck and was walking over to the car.

“President Lu, I’ll go deal with it.” Zhou Yan opened the car door and got out of the car.

The hot-tempered truck driver shouted, “What the hell were you doing?” “I should be the one asking you this!” Zhou Yan said coldly.

He was driving normally the whole time. T he truck driver was the one who hit him first.

“Are you saying that it’s my responsibility?” The truck driver was not convinced. “Let’s call the police! We’ll let the police decide who’s responsible!”

Zhou Yan turned his head back and took a glance at the car. “There’s no need to call the police. We’ll settle this privately!”

If it was any other time, he would have just called the police.

But now, President Lu was in a hurry to attend the press conference at Yong Shui Pavilion.

If they called the police, they would definitely ask questions and investigate.

“I won’t settle this privately with you! I’m calling the police!”

The truck driver called the police as he spoke.

Zhou Yan saw that the situation was not right and stretched out his hand to snatch the truck driver’s phone. “How much do you want? Name your price.”

The truck driver seemed to have long been prepared, dodging Zhou Yan in a flash.

“What money? This isn’t about money!”

The call to the police was also connected at this time. The truck driver quickly said, “Hello? I crashed into someone else’s car. My address is…” Zhou Yan also did not expect that this driver was a tough nut to crack.

He turned around and walked to the back of the car.

Lu Shiyuan rolled down the car window and asked impatiently, “Are you done?”

Zhou Yan’s expression darkened as he said, “He refused to accept a private settlement.”

“You useless trash!” Lu Shiyuan scolded.

Zhou Yan lowered his head and allowed Lu Shiyuan to scold him.

It was true that he did not handle this matter well.

The press conference was about to end. Lu Shiyuan naturally could not wait here any longer.

He got out of the car and stood by the roadside, ready to take a taxi to Yong Shui Pavilion.

Zhou Yan saw the taxi coming over and hurriedly stopped it.

Just as Lu Shiyuan was about to get into the car, the truck driver ran over.

“Don’t run! The police haven’t arrived yet!” The moment the truck driver arrived, he closed the taxi door that Zhou Yan just opened.

Zhou Yan went forward and wanted to pull the truck driver away. “I’ll wait for the police here with you.”

The truck driver was filled with brute force. He stood firmly on the spot, so Zhou Yan could not pull him.

The truck driver snorted coldly. “There are two of you in the car. Who knows which one of you is driving? No one is allowed to leave!”

Zhou Yan thought that it would be too late if Lu Shiyuan didn’t leave now. He could only coax the truck driver patiently, “I was driving.”

“Are you the owner?”

Zhou Yan turned his head to look at Lu Shiyuan. “Yes, I am.”

Of course, he was not the owner of the car.

This car belonged to Lu Shiyuan.

“How can you prove that you’re the owner?”

“You…” Zhou Yan, who had always been a patient guy, was unable to keep his cool anymore.

“If you don’t leave, I’m going to leave now!” The taxi driver saw that something was wrong and immediately fled.

The taxi sped off.

Zhou Yan was so angry that he took two deep breaths in a row.

When he calmed down and was about to hail another taxi, Lu Shiyuan, who had been standing behind him, suddenly kicked the truck driver.

The truck driver was caught off guard and was kicked to the ground.

Lu Shiyuan was already filled with anger. The truck driver became a target in his venting range.

Now that he had made a move, it would not be so easy for him to stop.

Lu Shiyuan kicked the truck driver a few more times and even tried to punch him.

“President Lu!” Zhou Yan wanted to persuade Lu Shiyuan to stop.

But how could he stop him? Instead, Lu Shiyuan turned around to deliver a blow to him.

The police arrived at that moment.

“What are you guys doing?

After the police rushed over, they stopped Lu Shiyuan who was in a rage.

Zhou Yan’s heart turned cold.

The situation was getting worse.

President Lu couldn’t make it to the press conference.

After the police pulled the two of them apart, Lu Shiyuan still felt angry and wanted to go up and beat up the truck driver.

The police held Lu Shiyuan down tightly. “You still want to hit him in front of the police?

“All of you will follow us back to the police station to make a statement later.”

“Officer, he hit me first!” the truck driver quickly exclaimed.

“Don’t worry, we’ll investigate the matter clearly.”

“Who called the police just now and said that there was a car accident?” the policeman asked again.

The truck driver, whose face was bruised and swollen, quickly said, “It was me! I called the police!”
