Chapter 971: Sleeping Soundly Even in Dreams
Pei Wei sneered at Firebird, "What do you count for? You’re just a running dog, and you dare to bark in front of me?"
Firebird stared directly at him, "Don’t try to provoke me. Do you think by angering me and hitting you, you will be free? Pei Wei, you’re about to face punishment!"
After speaking, he noticed Pei Wei’s change in expression and said gravely, "Take him away."
Along the way, some of Pei Wei’s people wanted to rescue him, but heavily armed SWAT officers escorted him, making no one dare to attempt the rescue.
Meanwhile, at the President Mansion.
Pei Long also received the news of Pei Wei’s arrest. The police department had signed the papers, approved the arrest, but hadn’t reported it to the President Mansion.
By the time Pei Long found out, it was already too late.
He called the police department and cursed vehemently.
He also instructed the police department to transfer Pei Wei to another detention center, but the person in charge refused the president’s order, citing Pei Wei’s involvement in state secrets.
Pei Long tried to personally bring people to retrieve Pei Wei but was blocked at the President Mansion entrance by Lu Yuhao and his troops.
Lu Yuhao even summoned reporters and stated in front of them, "Pei Wei is now involved in many charges. His people may pose a threat to the president. The President Mansion had received threatening calls from Pei Wei. We must ensure the president’s safety."
Thus, he used this reason to silence the masses.
This angered Pei Long, causing him to smash things in his office, "This is outrageous! They’re turning black into white! Where’s Gu Xiaozhan? Hurry up and call him."
At that moment, Gu Xiaozhan was accompanying Mu Anhan, refusing to take any calls.
Major media outlets received the news and were writing about Pei Long’s numerous accusations.
Especially "One Day Talk," controlled by the Pei Family, exposed Pei Wei’s dark history.
Involving women, abusing women, toying with men, and even mentioning the Three Bends Bridge bombing case and espionage incident...
The public was outraged, and if Pei Wei were not punished, it wouldn’t be enough to quell their anger.
The spokesperson of the President Mansion was Secretary-General Cheng Weiguo. He quickly came forward to dissociate Pei Wei from the President Mansion and requested the judicial organ proceed with the trial according to due process.
Early the next morning.
The entire Imperial City, bathed in the eastern sunlight, once again displayed a thriving scene.
As if the "war" of last night ended with the night.
However, in every corner of the Imperial City, people were discussing how Pei Wei went from being the Crown Prince to becoming a prisoner.
Mu Anhan woke up in the afternoon, lying in bed looking at her phone, learning about Pei Wei’s arrest first thing.
She smiled, believing that with this incontrovertible evidence, Pei Wei would have no chance to wreak havoc again.
Moreover, in her past life, the scumbag Zhou Jingyi, who caused her death, was backed by Pei Wei’s power.
She now uprooted the problem, able to rest easy even in dreams.
She stretched, feeling as if she wasn’t herself anymore.
She had underestimated Gu Xiaozhan’s combat prowess. He was really stronger than ever last night.
Thinking about it made her blush.
She couldn’t keep dwelling on it, deciding to visit Xue Xiangtong at the hospital.
Tang Haolang sent a message, informing her that the surgery was very successful, urging her not to worry.
But as a friend with shared life-and-death experiences, Mu Anhan had to visit the hospital.
She changed her clothes and went to the hospital, finding Xue Xiangtong chatting with fellow patients about Pei Wei’s countless crimes.
"Han Han, you’re here!" Xue Xiangtong waved to her joyfully.
