182: Chapter 182 Using a veiled insult to criticize

The three shareholders were covered in goosebumps from his laughter.

Their intuition told them.

Something was definitely wrong with this situation!

But before they could figure out which step had gone awry, the police arrived.

"Who called the police?"

The two officers investigating this time were the same two from last time.

As soon as they entered the office, they scanned left and right, trying to find the person who made the call.

"It was me.", Shen Yan raised his hand and gestured toward the three shareholders. "I don't know what happened either. They suddenly ran over with a stack of Bank statements, telling me they hadn't received the acquisition funds."

At this point, Shen Yan even sighed.

"I don't know what exactly happened between them and Wang Tian, but I definitely followed all the acquisition procedures legally and compliantly."

As soon as he finished speaking.

The three shareholders hurriedly retorted: "Nonsense! Just because you say it's legal and compliant doesn't make it so? The three of us shareholders haven't even received the acquisition funds, and you tell me this is legal and compliant!"

Seeing their heightened emotions, the two police officers quickly calmed them down: "Alright, alright, just calm down for a moment."

"You just said you didn't receive the acquisition funds, right?"

The three shareholders nodded in unison.

They were certain they had never received any large acquisition funds.

In the second after they nodded, Shen Yan spoke up.

"But I clearly already instructed the company's Finance Department to transfer the acquisition funds to them. Perhaps they didn't look closely and missed it."

Hearing this, the face of Director Chen turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He retorted: "You're talking nonsense again! That was the acquisition money; how could we possibly miss it!"

Seeing that the two sides were about to start debating again, the police quickly intervened to mediate.

"Enough, enough. Arguing here won't solve anything. How about this, didn't you say you brought the Bank statements?"

"Then take out the statement records now. Whether the money was transferred or not will be clear after a direct comparison."

The three shareholders exchanged glances.

Then, they let out a cold snort and returned to the sofa.

Seeing their reaction, the police knew they agreed to this plan.

They spread all the statement records out on the table.

The police began to check.

Because it was acquisition money, they didn't pay attention to the small transactions, focusing instead on the incoming amounts in the hundreds of thousands or even millions.

"...Uh, Mr. Shen, there really are no large deposits listed here. Perhaps you should call and ask your company's Finance Department if there was an oversight?"

As soon as the words fell.

Shen Yan shook his head very firmly. He was certain: "Impossible. My company's Finance Department must have transferred the acquisition amount. It's just that you haven't noticed it yet."

Hearing him say that, the two police officers checked the statement records again.

After checking, the two of them sighed helplessly.

"Mr. Shen, we really did not see any acquisition amount transferred by your company..."

Before the sentence was even finished, the shareholder surnamed He directly interrupted him.

"Why waste time talking to him? Since we didn't receive the money, he is suspected of colluding with Wang Tian to commit occupational fraud against our company! I demand that you arrest him and take him back to the police station right now!"

The two police officers remained silent. They looked towards Shen Yan, thinking:

If Shen Yan couldn't give them a satisfactory explanation, they would have no choice but to take him back to the station for a thorough questioning.

Just as everyone's focus was entirely on Shen Yan, Shen Yan suddenly let out a soft chuckle and picked up all the statement records on the table.

"Alas, isn't the acquisition fund transferred by my company clearly right here on these statement records? How is it that none of you are looking closely?"

Could it really be that they overlooked it?

Seeing Shen Yan so certain that the acquisition funds transferred by his company were on the statement records.

The two police officers couldn't help but start doubting themselves.

Just as they were feeling some doubt, Shen Yan precisely pointed to a small incoming transaction on the three statements and said to them: "See? Isn't it right here?"

For a moment, everyone narrowed their eyes and bent over to look.

One, ten, hundred...

Two hundred and fifty!

The two police officers and the three shareholders rubbed their eyes and stared at that small incoming transaction in disbelief.

"You f*cking told us the acquisition amount was only two hundred and fifty before?!"

Seeing that all of them looked incredulous, Shen Yan shrugged and replied: "Yes, that's right. Didn't Wang Tian tell you?"

"Even if Wang Tian didn't tell you, it's written clearly in the acquisition contract. What you asked for was TWO, HUNDRED, FIVE!"

He stressed the last three numbers heavily while looking directly at the three shareholders.

The three shareholders were enraged by his provocative words and instantly jumped up from the sofa with a whoosh.

"Shen Yan! You did this on purpose, you deliberately set a trap for us!"

Shen Yan spread his hands and raised an eyebrow to ask: "Everything requires evidence. You say I set a trap, where is your evidence?"

The three shareholders opened their mouths simultaneously, and then fell silent simultaneously.

Seeing them choked into silence, Shen Yan felt ecstatic inside.

More than half a year ago.

He was just like these three shareholders, standing furiously in this very office, pointing at the three of them and accusing them and Chen Ling of setting a trap to dilute his shares.

And back then, the three shareholders had the same dismissive smiles on their faces, spreading their hands and asking him: "Everything requires evidence. You say we colluded to set a trap for you, where is your evidence?"

What goes around comes around; heaven spares no one.

He figured that having all his past actions reflected back onto him must feel terrible for these three shareholders.

However, his revenge didn't stop there.

"Alright, you've made enough of a scene. If there's nothing else, hurry up and get out of my company."

As soon as these words were spoken, Chen Guangke, who had been eavesdropping by the door, immediately chimed in.

"That's right! This company has been renamed now. Don't you old fossils come here to dirty our eyes again!"

The three shareholders were quite angered by Chen Guangke's words.

They strained their eyes, filled with hatred, gritted their teeth, and said hatefully:

"Shen Yan, don't think you can gloat for too long!"

"Wang Tian is still on the run. As long as we find him, the truth will naturally come to light!"

After listening, Shen Yan immediately nodded: "Fine, then I wish you the best in finding Wang Tian soon."

Saying that, he lifted his chin toward Chen Guangke.

"Old Chen, see the guests out!"

Chen Guangke promptly responded and then called a few security guards, who proceeded to carry and drag the three shareholders out.

Ten minutes later.

After sending off both the police and the three shareholders, Chen Guangke returned, coming back into Shen Yan's office.
