Chapter 1044: I’m Just Helping Out
Not only did Chu Xiaoran face a fine, he would never be able to produce some of the products again.
Some of the products under Chu Xiaoran’s company’s brand already had a mature industry chain and were very lucrative businesses, so the revocation of the production certificates dealt a nearly fatal blow to the company.
Chu Xiaoran’s facial color paled.
Without the certificates of conformity, even if they produced the products, businesses wouldn’t buy them. Illegally produced products had no way of entering the legal market.
Chu Xiaoran’s face was extremely dark and he clenched his fists angrily. His gaze was filled with dark fury as he glared at Ning Shu who was on the other side of the court room.
Ning Shu met Chu Xiaoran’s gaze calmly.
The moment they got out of the courthouse, Chu Xiaoran clenched his fist and swung it towards Ning Shu’s face. Ning Shu dodged easily. Chu Xiaoran’s face was ashen as he looked at Ning Shu. “I really did underestimate you. I never thought you had such ability.”
Ning Shu spread her hands helplessly. “I don’t have such ability. I’m not the one that wants to defeat you, I’m just helping out.”
Chu Xiaoran was so infuriated that his facial color worsened even more. He punched towards Ning Shu again, but Ning Shu directly caught his hand and clenched her hand to punch his stomach. Chu Xiaoran gave a muffled groan and doubled over in pain.
Ning Shu then punched Chu Xiaoran’s eye and his eye rapidly became bruised.
Chu Xiaoran doubled over and coughed as he covered his eye with one hand. It was extremely painful.
“Ah!” When Xia Xiaoman stepped out of the courthouse, it was just in time to see Ning Shu punch Chu Xiaoran. She screamed, then ran over to help Chu Xiaoran up. When she saw the bruise on Chu Xiaoran’s face, her face filled with heartache.
“Big Brother Wenlang, why did you hit him?” demanded Xia Xiaoman. “I’m already really sad that you guys are opposing each other on court, so why are you guys still being like this?”
Ning Shu spread her hands innocently. “He was the one that hit me first.”
It felt really meaningless. What was she explaining for? Ning Shu turned, pulled open the car door, then drove off.
At this point, Chu Xiaoran and Xia Xiaoman had already become surrounded by reporters.
After this lawsuit, Ning Shu hired several more bodyguards and set up several cameras around the law firm. She also got some bodyguards for the Xu family, but had them secretly protect the Xu family parents without showing their faces.
As of now, all the media and newspapers were trying to calculate how much Chu Xiaoran would have to pay for the fine. Three times the profits? The media roughly calculated and predicted that the sum would be around a billion.
However, the assets management and supervising committee would only give a number higher than one billion. A bit of money like a billion wasn’t enough to reflect the profits Chu Xiaoran had reaped while he had monopoly of the markets.
Chu Xiaoran had to pay this fine. Even if he had to sell everything he had, he still had to pay the fine, otherwise the court would directly close down his company.
Furthermore, even if Chu Xiaoran wanted to run now, he wouldn’t be able to. Police were keeping an eye on him at all times. If he made any suspicious moves, he’d immediately be arrested.
The government clearly wanted to devour this fat piece of meat so they’d resort to any means to make Chu Xiaoran pay this sum.
With this money, T City would be able to develop further, and without Chu Xiaoran exerting pressure from above, the other businesses in T City would be able to grow so that there wouldn’t be a sole dominating power in the city.
“Big Brother Wenlang! Xu Wenlang! Get out here...” Xia Xiaoman’s voice came from outside the law firm.
Ning Shu walked to the window and saw that Xia Xiaoman was standing at the door despite the scorching sunlight. She had been blocked by the bodyguards so she could only stand at the entrance and shout.
Ning Shu scoffed. Was she supposed to go out just because she was called? Did Xia Xiaoman really think she was that easy to summon?
She didn’t know why Xia Xiaoman came to find her again, but it definitely wasn’t for anything good.
