951 Threatening His Highness
The incident continued to arouse theizens’ curiosity.
The Chief Secretary was unhappy with the bad press so he made a call to the relevantw-enforcement department.
Consequently, thew-enforcement department got a thorough lecture, causing them to then transfer the me onto tourists. They wrote a post on Weibo that read, “When tourists encounter a problem, they conjure up conspiracies rather than trying to resolve the issue.”
They had done so to control public opinion.
However, some of their chosen words were controversial and unexpectedly to them, many different interpretations started to circte ever since their opinion was posted.
Those who agreed with their statement praised them for ‘allowing the deaf to hear the ruckus’; those who did not, used the phrase, ‘the demeanor of the fellow robbers’ to mock thew-enforcement department.
Too many tourists had encountered this kind of unscrupulous business. Helian Wei Wei did not even need to do anything for the people to voice their displeasure.
However, real justice was often elusive.
Usually, people did not voice out their opinions because of their forgiving nature or they just did not want to cause any trouble.
However, once a problem had exceeded the bottom line, no one could tolerate such behavior anymore.
Sometimes, even theizens had a hard time discerning fact from fiction.
Nevertheless, this incident was obvious. The video revealed everything, hence the evidence was indisputable.
It was clear as day that the drivers, tour guides and the store had colluded to take advantage of tourists. The rted department’s management had been too lenient on this matter as well.
People could only do so much to make the high-ranking executives realize their mistakes.
This was because every time something happened, their first line of action would be to spew excuses in order to shift the me away from themselves.
Unfortunately, such an abuse of power often urred in this world.
The people understood the matter well but chose not toment in public. Some people were vocal about their opinions while some chose the high road and did not criticize the matter. Nevertheless, people wanted to highlight the existence of these schemes and how not to be a victim of them.
The experts in Zhihu wrote a three-point summary that was applicable to each popr tourist town that said – do not register for the individual tour group, do not inquire with local drivers and try to avoid dining at the tourist spots. After all, the scandal of a few tourists being charged an exorbitant price for a fish was still fresh in people’s minds.
However, as every city required development and construction, incidents like these would note to an end anytime soon.
Only themon ordinary folks would suffer as they still relied on these sources of ie.
Genuine high-ranked executives wished that everyone could live in an ideal society, yet a perfect system could not be implemented thoroughly.
This was due to the selfish nature of a minority of people.
Take a certain someone in Li City as an example – he perceived himself as someone who was untouchable like a God and sought to control everything.
However, he had never seen a scene like this before until today.
Nevertheless, he was not as brash ifpared to a certain someone in Yun City and knew when to keep his opinion to himself.
Hence, he quickly asked a particr department to issue an apology on Weibo and performed some damage control.
When all these werepleted, he narrowed his eyes and instructed his subordinate, “When the poprity of this incident subsides, tell Chief Secretary Liu to give the person who revealed this a hard time. We should teach her a lesson for spewing all the nonsense.”
After Chief Secretary Liu received the instruction, he hastily made a call to CEO Wang to inform him that they would turn a blind eye toward this incident. He was free to do whatever he wanted to vent his anger so long that he kept it discreet.
CEO Wang held the phone and let out a coldugh as he looked at the family who was still standing condescendingly in the middle of the jewelry market. Chief Secretary Liu’s words were very clear. In the beginning, he had some scruples but now, he had received permission to do anything he wanted behind closed doors.
The guards outside would not interfere even if he killed this dense reporter as long as he did it discreetly.
It was so straightforward.
CEO Wang exchanged nces with the guards to indicate for them to bring the other tourists away. Then, he would personally talk to Helian Wei Wei in private.
He did not forget that Helian Wei Wei had a camera with her so he put on a pleasant facade.
CEO Wang thought that she would not be suspicious if he had a humble and benevolent attitude.
However, he failed to realize that His Highness was aware that the more unscrupulous a person, the easier it was to read them.
Helian Wei Wei was very smart. She deciphered the schemes he had hidden up his sleeves with a single nce. Does he want to secretly get rid of us?
In that case, she would y along with him to see who would be the loser in this game.
After all, it was almost time for a military Major to turn up.
“Please, after you.” Helian Wei Wei seized the opportunity to speak.
Baili Jia Jue sneaked a peek at her. No matter the asion, his well-defined arched eyebrows always gave off a regal and elegant impression.
When they returnedter, Helian Wei Wei felt she had to try her best to cate the Third Prince. After all, four hours had already passed since they came out. His Highness was actually dragged out of the bed by her so the devil’s bad mood of being awakened from sleep wouldst for a very long time.
Baili Shangxie also knew his Imperial Father was a nightmare to deal with when he was sleep-deprived.
Even though he never spoke, the whole magical world still acted apprehensively in his presence. He would usually sit at the highest position and rest his chin on a hand to look down at everyone with an indiscernible expression.
However, he was still as deadly as an atomic st.
“Let’s keep our distance from our Imperial Fatherter.” Baili Shangxie urged Little Qingchen in a serious tone as he held his hand.
The little child nodded his head obediently. Shaking his hand, he tagged along behind Baili Shangxie. He staggered and swayed with every step.
The smile on CEO Wang’s lips got even broader when he saw the family behave so cooperatively. They walked along the corridor outside and he brought Helian Wei Wei and her family to the embassy lounge where all covert dealings were held. Cellphones and the inte were rendered useless here.
Helian Wei Wei could clearly hear the ‘beep’ sound from her Bluetooth earphone that indicated a loss of signal.
Simultaneously as the signal was disrupted, the engines of a few sports cars a short distance away revved to life. The cars moved so fast that only blurred trails of colors were left behind them as they raced along the arching hillside of Mountain Cang.
The Ghost was on the move!
At this moment, Chief Secretary Liu sipped his tea in an antechamber outside the mall. He waited for CEO Wang to give him a satisfactory reply after the matter had been settled so that he could vent his anger.
After all, even themercial magnates respected him ever since he was appointed as Chief Secretary. Unexpectedly, a st*pid reporter had dared to embarrass him in public. Does she have a death wish?
“Has CEO Wang made his move?”
“Almost. He has brought the people to the embassy lounge. We will know in a short while.”
“Then you should tell the people outside to remain at their positions no matter what they hear. Make sure nobody rushes in, we will keep out of this issue.”
The people beside Chief Secretary Liu nodded, they were loyal subordinates after all.
Now that he had assurance, CEO Wang did not bother to conceal his intentions anymore. After the click of the lock was heard, he dragged Baili Shangxie, who was the nearest, toward his body. His face was deeply etched with maliciousness, “I prefer to discuss things in this manner.”
