Xie Meilan was suspended from the company and had nothing to do at home. She was about to go to the supermarket to do some shopping when Lu Jie's secretary called and she learned that Lu Jie had been taken away by the Discipline Inspection Commission.
Not caring about anything else, Xie Meilan immediately drove back to the company to find out what was going on, but when she got downstairs she discovered that her employee card had been canceled and she couldn't even get in.
Xie Meilan immediately called her secretary and learned that she had been fired from the company and was not suspended without pay.
The secretary ran downstairs to see Xie Meilan and took her to a nearby cafe to sit down and chat slowly.
"Ms. Xie, before Mr. Lu goes in, please let me inform you that the house you live in now will probably be sealed, and you will be asked to find a house and move out as soon as possible."
"Seized? Why?" Xie Meilan said in shock.
The secretary explained: "The supervisory bureau found out what Mr. Lu did in the acquisition case and will soon seize the assets in his name."
Xie Meilan was shocked and asked in surprise: "What did Lu Jie do?"
The secretary sighed: "Mr. Lu pocketed 80 million in the acquisition case, and the Discipline Inspection Commission also found evidence of his bribery. All in all, it's quite troublesome."
Xie Meilan completely collapsed in her chair after hearing this.
"Eighty million?!"
The secretary sighed: "Mr. Lu is also unlucky. He happened to be under strict investigation by the Supervision Bureau. This was not a problem in the past. Also, yesterday when he met with Chief Ma of the Supervision Bureau, he was videotaped. I'm afraid he won't be able to escape this time.
.”
Xie Meilan took a breath and asked: "Where is the company? What did the company say?"
The secretary said: "After Mr. Chen got the news, he immediately broke off the relationship with Mr. Lu, and the company was not prepared to protect him."
"Ah." Xie Meilan really felt like the sky was falling.
The secretary said: "Miss Xie, don't worry. Mr. Lu has been on the battlefield for a long time and will definitely be prepared. He specifically asked me to inform you that you know what to do?"
Xie Meilan suddenly remembered that Lu Jie once told him that if something happened, he still had a house in Beijing with his mother's name on it, and money was left in the safe in the study.
"I understand." Xie Meilan stood up and prepared to leave.
The secretary spoke again: "Ms. Xie, the company has decided to fire you. The compensation will be paid to you in accordance with the labor law. You can go to the Human Resources Department to go through the procedures."
Xie Meilan gritted her teeth and said: "Mr. Chen is trying to kill the donkey, and take advantage of something happening to Mr. Lu to eliminate dissidents."
The secretary said with a gloomy face: "It is not only to eliminate dissidents, but also to kill people. Do you think the 80 million was stolen by Mr. Lu alone? Mr. Chen fired many of Mr. Lu's old subordinates. I will also go to the logistics department tomorrow.
Report.”
Xie Meilan said firmly: "Secretary Hu, you have to believe that Lu will always get through this. When he comes out, he will definitely not forget you."
The secretary nodded and said: "Mr. Lu has always treated me well. If you are of any use in the future, just come to me."
Xie Meilan exchanged greetings with her secretary and then hurried home.
When she got home, she was surprised to find two policemen standing at the door.
"Hello, are you Xie Meilan?"
"I am." Xie Meilan suddenly thought that the police were here to seize the house.
"I have some things about your mother that I need to verify with you." The policeman saluted.
"My mother?" Xie Meilan asked doubtfully.
"Would it be convenient for me to come to the bureau?"
"Can I go home and get something?"
"Of course no problem."
Xie Meilan went into the house to get some luggage and put all the valuable things in the suitcase and dragged it away.
After arriving at the police station, Xie Meilan was not taken to the interrogation room. Instead, she was taken to a conference room, where two police officers, a man and a woman, asked her about the situation.
"According to our investigation, your mother participated in an experimental clinical drug study during her lifetime." The policeman took out a piece of information and said, "Do you know Yang Cheng who was responsible for the study?"
"Dr. Yang, I know him! He once treated my mother." Xie Meilan said doubtfully.
"According to our investigation, Yang Cheng is suspected of defrauding money under the guise of a research project. Have you ever given him 600,000 yuan?"
"Fraud!? How is that possible!" Xie Meilan opened her eyes in shock and shouted: "Comrade police, are you mistaken? How could Dr. Yang be a liar? He is a teacher from a well-known university!"
"Yang Cheng has been arrested and has confessed to his crime. We only came to you to verify the amount of the payment. If the money can be recovered, we will return it to you."
Xie Meilan was in a state of confusion at this moment, and she couldn't help but think of what Lu Jie said back then.
Yang Cheng was introduced to Xie Meilan by Lu Jie, and said that Yang Cheng's research could save Xie Meilan's mother's illness. At first, she thought her mother had met a savior.
Even though her mother died later, Xie Meilan never thought that Yang Cheng was a liar.
The police showed some evidence to Xie Meilan, one by one, all of which showed that Yang Cheng's so-called experimental drug research was simply a scam. His drugs did not have any benefit to cancer patients, but many people were
Delay in treatment and death.
Seeing the evidence, Xie Meilan collapsed and cried.
"I killed my mother!"
The police officer saw that Xie Meilan was very emotional and did not continue. The female police officer handed Xie Meilan a tissue and comforted her:
"Don't be too sad. Yang Cheng will be punished as he should. We are here to find you today and there is one more thing we want to ask.
Do you know Lu Jie?"
Xie Meilan raised her head in shock and asked in confusion: "What does this have to do with Lu Jie?"
The female police officer said: "According to Yang Cheng's account, you were introduced by Lu Jie, right?"
"Yes." Xie Meilan suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Yang Cheng said Lu Jie was his accomplice and participated in the scam together!"
Xie Meilan seemed to be struck by lightning and was completely stunned.
The two policemen looked at each other and gave Xie Meilan time to digest.
"Impossible, Lu Jie would not lie to me, and he would not kill my mother." Xie Meilan refused to accept the reality.
"We will investigate whether Lu Jie is involved in this. Please tell us in detail how Lu Jie introduced you to Yang Cheng's place. The more detailed the better."
Xie Meilan walked out of the police station in a daze. At this time, she was completely confused.
She now desperately wants to see Lu Jie and ask him the truth, but Lu Jie has been locked up and the police will not let her see him at all.
Xie Meilan suddenly remembered something and quickly drove to Lu Jie's other house.
When she got to the house, she found the door open and the light inside.
"Lu Jie." Xie Meilan thought Lu Jie was released and rushed into the house quickly.
There was no Lu Jie in the room, only a woman in her late sixties who was opening the safe in the study.
"Who are you?" Xie Meilan screamed, thinking there was a thief.
The woman looked at Xie Meilan calmly and said, "It's my turn to ask you, who are you and why did you come into my house."
"Your home?" Xie Meilan asked in surprise.
"This is the house my son bought for me," the woman said calmly.
"You are Lu Jie's mother." Xie Meilan asked.
"Yes, I am Lu Jie's mother." The woman suddenly thought of something and said, "You must be the woman Lu Jie is hiding in Beijing!"
Xie Meilan frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
Mother Lu sneered: "What are you pretending to be in front of me? Didn't my son tell you that he has a wife and children?"
"Isn't he divorced? His wife lives in Singapore with their children."
Mother Lu raised her eyebrows and hummed, "Is that what he told you?"
Xie Meilan was shocked!
"Lu Jie is not divorced?" Xie Meilan said with trembling lips.
"Of course my son and daughter-in-law are not divorced. My daughter-in-law is raising a baby in Singapore."
