Chapter 714 Gentle Yet Corrosive: The Black and White Files (First Update)
"You—" Zhong Aihua and the blind Mei Sulan both paled involuntarily. Zhong Aihua gritted her teeth and glared at the beautiful, aloof Huang Yanyan, who had her chin slightly raised and looked at her with disdain.

"Bai Ruilian sent you here simply to provoke my grandfather. It seems she's desperate," Huang Yanyan said coldly, looking at the two of them.

"You collude with foreign capital to damage national interests for your own selfish grudges. Do you really think you can get away with it?"

Huang Yanyan's words were like a sharp blade piercing Zhong Aihua and Mei Sulan's hearts, completely extinguishing their hopes.

At that moment, several uniformed police officers entered the Peninsula Hotel.

"Who called the police?"

Huang Yanyan looked at Zhong Aihua and Mei Sulan, whose faces had turned extremely ugly, and coldly replied, "It's me. She's a wanted criminal from the mainland—"

"...Yes, immediately issue an arrest warrant for Mei Sulan, and then notify the Hong Kong police. It's basically confirmed that Mei Sulan and Bai Ruilian are accomplices. Hmm, Huang Yanyan has already stopped Mei Sulan in Hong Kong and called the police. Okay, I'll get there as soon as possible."

In the hotel's luxurious suite, Gao Dongxu leaned lazily against the headboard, talking on the phone while stroking Xu Qin's fair, delicate, and smooth skin, who was nestled in his arms.

Looking at Gao Dongxu who had just hung up the phone, Xu Qin, with her alluring eyes, asked curiously, "What happened?"

Gao Dongxu put his phone aside, reached out and pinched her fair and round chin, and smiled as he briefly explained to her the controversy surrounding the authenticity of the "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" painting.

"So it was foreign capital causing trouble," Xu Qin said with a sudden realization after reading the related reports.

"Well, the higher-ups are sending me to Hong Kong to oversee things and make sure nothing goes wrong..." Gao Dongxu smiled as he looked at Xu Qin, who was pouting her red lips and blinking her big, watery eyes, and continued, "So, I can only spend two days with you in Chang'an. The day after tomorrow, I'll send you back to Shanghai, and then I'll fly to Hong Kong."

"That's great—thank you, darling—" Upon hearing that she could spend two days with him, Xu Qin, who had been feeling quite disappointed and reluctant to part, immediately smiled brightly and happily hugged Gao Dongxu's neck, kissing his cheeks repeatedly.

"Hehe, alright, get up, wash up, change your clothes, let's go eat first, and then start exploring Chang'an—" Gao Dongxu said, quite naturally blaming her conscience a few times.

In just a few days, Xu Qin, who had become accustomed to the constant pangs of conscience, gave Gao Dongxu a charming smile and rolled her eyes. She sat up lazily, gathered her hair with her hands, and tied it up with a hair tie on her wrist.

She threw back the covers, got out of bed, and like a beautiful white swan, strode confidently with her long, straight, white legs into the bathroom.

After giving her statement, Huang Yanyan returned to the Huang family's villa in Hong Kong and saw Huang Kewu sitting on the sofa in the luxurious hall, looking solemn with a furrowed brow.

"grandfather--"

"You're back, have a seat." Huang Kewu saw Huang Yanyan walk to the sofa, take off her high heels and socks, revealing her bare, white feet, and lazily and relaxed into the sofa.

"Tell me what happened," Huang Kewu asked in a slightly helpless tone, looking at Huang Yanyan who was smiling sweetly at him with doting eyes.

“Mei Sulan and Bai Ruilian are in cahoots. She showed up today to try and provoke you with old grievances. Your efforts in Hong Kong these past few days have turned the tide against the overwhelming criticism, making Bai Ruilian feel a huge threat. So, they’re desperate and want to target you…” Huang Yanyan explained softly.

"Hmph!" Huang Kewu scoffed disdainfully after hearing this. "They overestimate Mei Sulan. Do they really think those old grievances can provoke me? What a joke—"

“Regardless of whether it will provoke you or not, we can’t take the risk. What if she resorts to any means and deceives you with extremely malicious lies? If you are unaware of the truth, it might really provoke you. Don’t forget, your heart can’t handle it. If you have a heart problem, then all your efforts will be in vain.” Huang Yanyan once again gave Huang Kewu a heads-up.

"Hmm, what you said makes sense..." Huang Kewu nodded in agreement, his brows slightly furrowed.

Huang Yanyan couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

Amidst the turbulent undercurrents in Hong Kong, Gao Dongxu and Xu Qin, inseparable, left their footprints and took photos at famous scenic spots in Chang'an.

Of course, Xu Qin gained the most. In just two days, she not only toured Chang'an and broadened her horizons, but also became very knowledgeable.

It has to be said that Gao Dongxu really took great care of her, transferring money to her two small accounts each time, and topping her up again and again, which was absolutely generous.

To be honest, only a super-rich person like Gao Dongxu, who doesn't care about money, could withstand such financial drain.

There's nothing we can do about it; Xu Qin is about to study abroad. We'll probably see her again when Gao Dongxu goes to America to buy a yacht.

Therefore, the only thing to do before parting was to ensure sufficient funds so that Xu Qin could carry with her many beautiful memories and alleviate the pain of separation across thousands of miles.

Good times always pass so quickly. On the morning of the third day, after Gao Dongxu and Xu Qin finished their last yoga class in Chang'an, they rested for a while and then began to pack up in perfect unison.

After breakfast, the two, along with Wang Jianjun and six of his 749 elite subordinates, boarded a plane and returned to Shanghai.

After seeing Xu Qin, who was reluctant to part and had tears in her eyes, back to her school, Gao Dongxu returned to the airport without stopping and flew directly to Hong Kong. To be honest, Gao Dongxu was quite looking forward to this trip to Hong Kong. After all, it was a world of movies and TV shows. Even America, which he hadn't explored much, had "John Wick," and France had the "Spirit Stone Conference." He believed that Hong Kong, a world-renowned metropolis that never lacked classic films and television shows, would not disappoint him.

Wearing a white t-shirt, loose white casual pants, and white sneakers, Gao Dongxu led Wang Jianjun and five others out of the airport and saw a middle-aged man with a smile walking quickly towards them.

"Are you Mr. Gao Dongxu? I'm here to pick you up. You can just call me Lao He. The hotel has been arranged for you..."

Gao Dongxu smiled and shook hands with the other person, saying, "Thank you for your help. Have you prepared what I asked for?"

"Ready, in the car."

"Okay, let's go then. We can talk on the way—" Gao Dongxu didn't know which department the other person belonged to, but he figured it was very likely someone from a relevant department.

After all, people in ordinary departments really can't handle someone like Gao Dongxu, who is powerful on his own and is also a special person who is ordered to cause trouble.

Gao Dongxu and Lao He got into the black Maybach parked in the middle by the roadside, while Wang Jianjun and the other six got into two black Chevrolet SUVs, one in front and one behind.

Inside the speeding Maybach, Old He took out a file folder, turned around and handed it to Gao Dongxu, smiling as he said, "I don't know if this is what you wanted, but it contains information about some of the most famous recent events."

"Thank you." Gao Dongxu took the file bag, said thank you, opened it, and pulled out a thick stack of documents.

He didn't complain about the large number of documents; on the contrary, he looked at them very seriously, his eyes burning with intensity, a smile playing on his lips as he examined the various intelligence reports presented by the other party.

Looking at the details about the gang in the document, Gao Dongxu quickly smiled.

He laughed because he saw a familiar name – Lee Ka-yuen, nicknamed Jimmy, from Wo Luen Shing Wo.

The classic two-part guide to wearing a helmet while fishing!

Interestingly, at this point in time, it's been the fourth consecutive year that Jimmy has been the top-ranked player in the Wo Shing Pharmacy, and it's time for Wo Shing Pharmacy to choose a leader again.

Continuing to review the gang information, Gao Dongxu didn't see any familiar names besides the Xiang family, such as Hung Hing or Tung Hing.

He wasn't disappointed, after all, even Jimmy had already been the leader for two terms, and other film and television plots would probably need to be discovered slowly.

When he flipped to the information on the Hong Kong police, Gao Dongxu's lips couldn't help but curl up in a smile again.

Liu Jiehui, Li Wenbin!
Yuan Jiabao, Zhang Chongbang, Qiu Gang'ao!
. . . . . .

"Cold War" and "Raging Fire," and some other names, because none of the characters in these two films and TV shows were as memorable to him, and since he didn't have any photos, he couldn't immediately recall which films or TV shows were involved.

However, having these three familiar ones is enough for him to enjoy this trip.

"What's the deal with Qiu Gang'ao?" Gao Dongxu closed the file, deciding to take it back for further research and investigation. He looked at Lao He in the passenger seat and asked with interest.

"Ask him. His release from prison wouldn't normally be considered valuable information, but based on the conditions you listed, he did something sensational, so we included his information."

Back then, Qiu Gang'ao was considered a rising star in the Hong Kong police force, with a bright future ahead of him. However, a kidnapping case directly ended his career.

Thieves kidnapped wealthy businessman Huo Zhaotang, who had close ties to high-ranking officials. Therefore, the higher-ups gave Qiu Gang'ao a strict order: he must extract Huo Zhaotang's whereabouts from the captured kidnappers.

Violence was met with violence, and the violence eventually spiraled out of control. Qiu Gang'ao's men were captured by the kidnappers, and Qiu Gang'ao accidentally killed one of the prisoners while trying to save his men.

Although the case was eventually solved and the tycoon was rescued, the higher-ups who had promised to "protect" them went back on their word. In court, due to the tycoon and his superiors' inaction and the identification by his close associates in the police force, he was sentenced to four years in prison.

"This incident caused a huge uproar and a great deal of controversy back then." Old He smiled as he recounted the story to Gao Dongxu, revealing many inside details.

Gao Dongxu gave Lao He a meaningful look and said with a smile, "The former rising star of the police force has been sentenced to prison. I'm afraid his days won't be easy."

"It was more than just bad; for Qiu Gang'ao and his group, it was hell. To be honest, it's incredibly lucky that they survived and got out of prison alive," Old He said with a sigh.

"Do you know where he went after he was released from prison?" Gao Dongxu asked tentatively.

"I hadn't really noticed, but there's a high probability he's going to join the underworld. Four years of hellish torment, plus the grievances and betrayals he suffered back then, it's hard not to turn to the dark side," Old He said meaningfully.
