Chapter 29 Embezzlement of Public Funds

“Mr. Mo, everyone in the financial world says that you’ve been so busy with work upon your return that you’ll have to make an appointment in advance to be able to meet you. But you seem very free. Every few days, we’ll bump into you when we’re handling family matters…”

Lu Wei said in a sarcastic tone, implying that Mo Chen always liked to meddle in other people’s business.

Mo Chen lowered his eyes and glanced at Lu Qi’s side profile. It was as if she was thinking about a problem, and her eyes were staring at the patterns on the tiles on the ground.

Lu Han moved slightly, wanting to stand in front of Mo Chen and answer the difficult questions for him.

However, Mo Chen raised his hand and politely invited him to sit down and rest. He replied in an indifferent and relaxed tone, “Maybe it’s because I have a deep affinity with Qiqi, and I can always appear when she needs me.” “It just so happens that every time she’s being wronged, she’s with you and old Mr. Lu.”

Mo Chen looked at Lu Wei with a cold gaze. He stood in the middle of the ward with all his strength, using a method that the Lu family could not justify to mock their shameful behavior.

Lu Wei became agitated and wanted to argue with Mo Chen face to face, but old master Lu raised his hand and stopped him.

Although Lu Han was in a difficult position between old master Lu and Mo Chen, he felt gratified for Lu Qi and had a good impression of Mo Chen.

Lu Qi’s eyes darkened as she listened to their conversation with ulterior motives. Mo Chen standing up for her would not be able to completely solve the problem Lu Han was facing. Old master Lu could always find a suitable opportunity to force him to give up his shares, at that time, the outcome would still be irreversible or unavoidable.

She had to do something to make them give up on this idea.

“Do you carry a computer with you?” Lu Qi suddenly spoke, breaking the gloomy atmosphere in the ward.

A hint of surprise flashed across Mo Chen’s eyes. He immediately signaled his butler to bring a laptop and pass it to Lu Qi. Lu Qi hugged the laptop and sat on the sofa. She did not explain further. She only pursed her red lips and focused on typing on the keyboard. From time to time, she would save the information she had gathered.

Everyone in the ward was looking at her. Lu Wei looked around uneasily, trying to see what was on the screen.

Ten minutes later, Lu Qi stood up after taking a deep breath.

She walked up to old master Lu with a confident expression and pointed at all the numbers on the screen, “Grandpa, you should still be able to read the financial statements, right? Do you need me to explain to you the transactions behind every line?”

Old master Lu glanced at the logo and the huge number that appeared on the screen with a complicated expression.

Lu Wei bent over and stared at the computer. The next second, his heartbeat quickened as he blurted out, “How did you find these?”

Lu Qi narrowed her almond-shaped eyes and said slowly with a mocking smile, “Anything you do will leave a trace.”

She turned around and handed the computer to Lu Han, “Three years ago, Lu Wei, as a shareholder of the Lu Enterprise, asked the finance department to transfer a sum of money to his private account and threatened the accountant to make the balance even. Two years ago, he used the same method to embezzle the enterprise’s public funds which involved a huge amount of money

“You should know very well how much money Lu Wei has in his Swiss bank account, right?”

Lu Qi’s voice rose. Although she looked like she was smiling, the coldness in her eyes made old master Lu nervous.

Lu Wei was ambitious and greedy, but without old master Lu’s permission, he didn’t dare to embezzle such a huge amount of money.

Lu Qi wasn’t the only one who understood this. Lu Han, Mo Chen, and the others who mingled in the business world knew this very well.

Lu Han carefully looked at all the transaction records, and the disappointment in his eyes grew stronger and stronger.

“Dad, Lu Wei, what have you done behind my back…”

“Grandpa said that he hopes that the Lu Enterprise can get better and better. I’m also looking forward to seeing the enterprise eliminate the pests that are deeply buried in its foundation so why don’t we call the police? Let the police investigate this in detail…”

“As long as uncle Lu Wei passes the investigation, Dad will immediately go through the transfer procedures.”

Lu Qi opened her palm and lazily waited for old master Lu’s reply.

“However, I’m afraid that uncle Lu Wei won’t be able to pass the examination and will be imprisoned for a period of time, right? Based on the amount of embezzlement, 10 years or maybe 20? Anything is possible. Grandpa will definitely not be able to get used to life without him by his side to take care of him.”

After Lu Qi said that, Mo Chen added in a timely manner, “The Mo family has a professional legal team that specializes in economic litigation. I can introduce them to

you.”

“Thank you!”

Lu Qi nodded and smiled.

Old master Lu’s eyes darted around. He could not think of a better way so he could only clutch his heart once again, trying to pretend to faint to win Lu Han’s sympathy and compromise. However, this time, he did not hear Lu Han’s concerned voice.
