642 Report

After experiencing danger during the day, Chu Ning slept soundly at night. When she woke up the next day, she felt great all over. She stretched and was about to call Fifth Brother when her phone rang.

Chu Ning looked at Zhang Bo on the screen’s display and wondered what he wanted so early in the morning. “Hello? What’s up?”

Zhang Bo’s tone was anxious. “President Chu, it’s not good. People from the Industry and Commerce Bureau and the Market Supervision Bureau are here.”

Chu Ning had already sat at the table and was about to have breakfast. When she heard this, she stood up with a thud and her jaw almost dropped in shock. “Industry and Commerce Bureau? Market Supervision? Are you sure you heard correctly?”

Chu Ning was extremely confused. Why would the people from the Industry and Commerce Bureau go to the Soaring Clouds Group? The company’s procedures were complete, and there had never been any violation of the law. It was even more unreasonable for the people from the Market Supervision Bureau to come. She had not violated the law, so why would she be investigated?

Zhang Bo was beside himself. Chu Ning wasn’t in the office, so he had been caught off guard. “They came very suddenly. You weren’t here, so they didn’t declare their intentions. They’re waiting for you in your office now.”

Chu Ning thought of the ruckus caused in The Parade the previous day. She suspected that someone had reported her. “Don’t worry. Our company has all the procedures in order and didn’t break any laws. There won’t be any problems.” As she spoke, she strode back to her room, saying as she walked, “I’ll be at the office soon. Take care of the staff from the Industry and Commerce Bureau and the Market Supervision Bureau. Don’t be anxious. I’ll hang up first.”

Without waiting for Zhang Bo’s response, she decisively hung up the phone, speedily changed her clothes, put on her shoes, and rushed out without even taking the breakfast that Chu Jing had handed her.

Despite the speed limit and the morning rush hour, she tried her best to drive as fast as she could, arriving at the company in a short while.

Zhang Bo had sent someone downstairs to wait for her. When that person saw her, it was as if he had seen his savior. “President Chu! You’re finally here! We’ve checked their credentials and confirmed that they are from the Industry and Commerce Bureau and Market Supervision Bureau.” As they walked, he spoke about what had happened in the morning.

Chu Ning listened to the man’s report and walked quickly.

Pushing open the office door, she saw a man and a woman in uniforms sitting upright on the sofa. Opposite them was Zhang Bo, who was pouring tea for them.

When Zhang Bo heard the sound of the door opening, he looked up and saw Chu Ning. His heart slowed. He stood and walked to Chu Ning. “President Chu.”

The duo sitting on the sofa likewise stood up and put on polite smiles. “Hello, President Chu.”

The woman reached out to shake hands with Chu Ning and smiled. “According to a report from a relevant person, we suspect that the Soaring Clouds Group has withdrawn its capital. According to the evidence provided by the informant, we have the right to check the Soaring Cloud Group’s trading account and request the Soaring Cloud Group to produce its financial statements. President Chu, please convene a shareholders’ meeting; all shareholders have to agree to this investigation.”

When Chu Ning heard this, her jittery heart calmed down because she knew that there was nothing wrong with the Soaring Clouds Group. Although she was young, she had two lifetimes’ worth of cautiousness, which made her pursue perfection in any issue related to the Soaring Clouds Group. She had handled the necessary procedures and prepared the ambiguous ones, resolutely putting an end to any behavior that brushed against the law.

Chu Ning said calmly, “I’m the only shareholder of the Soaring Clouds Group. The company’s finance department has resigned and is still hiring. Now, the trading account and financial statements are all managed by Zhang Bo.” Then, she looked at Zhang Bo and said, “Show the relevant items according to their requirements.”

The two staff members were impressed by Chu Ning’s composure despite her young age.

Ever since they entered the Industry and Commerce Bureau and the Market Supervision Bureau, they had investigated countless companies. No matter how big or whom the boss was, once they heard that they were going to investigate this or that, they would sweat profusely. They couldn’t wait to take the money and run away immediately.

Zhang Bo brought the two staff members to his office. Chu Ning didn’t leave the office due to the upcoming investigation.

Chu Jing saw Chu Ning leave in a hurry early in the morning and heard her mention the Industry and Commerce Bureau on the phone. He was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to handle it and estimated that she should have arrived at the office, so he called her. “Xiao Ning, what’s wrong? Are you okay?”
