Section 348

It was a call from her mother.

Seeing that Xu Hao was also awake, Li Yunshu quickly gestured for him to stay quiet.

She pressed the answer button.

"Yunshu, this is bad. Something happened to your brother…"

As it turned out—

Early in the morning, a sanitation worker had found the miserable Li Xiao on the street.

It scared him so much he almost died on the spot.

He quickly called the police.

Upon receiving the Police officer's notification, Father Li and Mother Li rushed to the station.

Seeing Li Xiao's miserable state, the elderly couple almost fainted from the shock.

It was too tragic.

"The preliminary assessment is that it was a revenge killing, though we can't rule out a physical brawl…"

The Police officer asked if Li Xiao had offended anyone.

Of course, Father Li and Mother Li didn't know.

This useless son of theirs was always fooling around outside.

Who knew who he had offended?

They were both angry and regretful.

Had they known their son would meet such a tragic fate,

they should have broken his legs back then…

…and kept him at home so he couldn't go out and cause trouble.

Hearing her mother's weeping voice, Li Yunshu got out of bed immediately after hanging up the phone.

She had to go check on the situation.

Of course, it wasn't for that useless brother of hers.

Their sibling bond had always been weak.

And because Li Xiao had repeatedly slandered Xu Hao, their relationship had dropped to a freezing point…

She was worried about her parents.

She feared that they would suffer from excessive grief.

"Yunshu, what's wrong?"

Xu Hao asked, pretending to be puzzled.

Li Yunshu told Xu Hao about Li Xiao's demise.

"I'll go with you. The situation at the station is complicated, so I might be able to help if I go…"

Li Yunshu was touched.

It felt so good to have Xu Hao's company and care!

After tidying themselves up,

Li Yunshu and Xu Hao headed out.

She told her best friend, who had been woken up and was still in a daze, to rest well.

Because she was a crybaby,

Xu Hao had easily let her off and targeted Xia Qingge instead.

As a result, Li Yunshu was fine, while her best friend suffered.

When the two arrived at the police station,

Father Li and Mother Li had calmed down somewhat.

It was really because this son of theirs was usually disobedient.

He insisted on fooling around outside and never listened to anything they said.

Bringing this upon himself was his own fault.

Fortunately, they had a well-behaved and outstanding daughter…

"Yunshu, why are you together with President Xu?"

Li Yunshu panicked.

Why did they come together?

Of course, it was because they were together last night.

And they were even joined by a little companion.

Waking up early in the morning and hearing her mother's crying voice, she had rushed over in a hurry without thinking of an excuse.

Xu Hao spoke calmly.

"I happened to arrive at the company and saw Yunshu running out in a panic, so I asked her about the situation."

"I didn't expect such a thing to happen. I figured I have some connections at the station, so I might be of some help…"

Li Yunshu regained her composure and nodded.

"Yes, I told him it wasn't necessary, but Uncle Xu insisted on coming to help."

The elderly couple had no suspicions.

They assumed the panic in their daughter's eyes was her reaction to learning that her brother, Li Xiao, had been harmed.

Thus, they looked at Xu Hao gratefully.

"President Xu, we've troubled you again. We really don't know how to thank you…"

Thanks to Xu Hao's connections, Li Xiao's case was handled very quickly.

The police station stated they would do their best to track down the killer.

And with Xu Hao's help,

Li Xiao's funeral was quickly completed.

The Li family was naturally immensely grateful to Xu Hao.

Little did they know, the culprit who had killed their son was right in front of them.

To repay Xu Hao,

they invited him to their home as a guest once again.

And this time, Xu Hao went straight to Li Yunshu's bedroom.

Father Li and Mother Li recovered from their grief.

Li Yunshu also returned to the company to continue working.

Everything returned to normal.

In the afternoon—

Xu Hao took a car to Qingtian Electronics Co., Ltd.

Because Chu Xiong's deeds had been exposed and he was arrested,

the current president, Yao Xinrui, lifted the suppression on the Qingtian Company.

Qingtian Company breathed a sigh of relief.

Previously, they had been suppressed so hard they could barely breathe.

Now, they were beginning to slowly recover their Origin Qi.

However, because the suppression had been too severe, many of their connections had been severed.

It would be somewhat difficult to return to their former thriving state…

Their president, Lin Chuqing, did not seem worried.

It seemed she was preparing some major move.

Indeed, she was.

Lin Chuqing had been closely monitoring the research and development progress of their new technology.

They had made another new Breakthrough.

It wouldn't be long before it was completed.

Once developed, it would impact the landscape of the entire industry.

There was indeed no need to care about their past cooperative relationships.

She thought of Xu Hao, who had saved her life, and realized his goods were still at her company.
