Chapter 416 The Precarious Qiu family
After the opening ceremony, Mufan Real Estate went on track and started to conduct business as per
normal.
The scandal which Mufan Real Estate suffered because of the Entrepreneurs'' Dinner slipped under
everyone''s radar after Wu Wei-Tao and the others attended their opening ceremony.
After all, Wu Wei-Tao showed active support for this business, so all the rich and powerful couldn''t wait
to ingratiate themselves, and no one ever brought up the scandal again.
Also, Mufan Real Estate made a name for itself in the Yunzhou business circles after its opening
ceremony. It swiftly propelled to stardom and even went on the news in Yunzhou.
Everyone started gossiping about the strong backing that Mufan Real Estate and Qiu Mu-Cheng
probably had behind them.
After all, bigwigs from all the Jiangdong cities had sent representatives to her opening ceremony
bearing gifts, including the likes of Wu Wei-Tao and Wang Dong-Lai. No one would believe they didn''t
have a big shot backing them now.
Hence Mufan Real Estate''s future development went very smoothly.
Now that Qiu Mu-Cheng was unfettered, she undoubtedly had plenty of room to disy her business
talent.
She became like a fish that found water or a bird that was free to soar.
Mufan Real Estate expanded at a terrifying speed under Qiu Mu-Cheng''s leadership, and thepany
achieved great influence and status at a startling pace.
The Qiu family found themselves in a diversely different situation while Mufan Real Estate enjoyed a
booming business.
Qiushui Logistics'' illegal activities undoubtedly became entirely exposed to the public after the police
investigated them.
All the crimes they pinned on Qiu Mu-Cheng previously, such as illegal production, tax fraud, and
failure to meet fire safety standards, were all discovered in Qiushui Logistics'' operations.
The upright family that Old Master Qiu imed the Qiu family was turned out to be a sheer joke.
The truthpletely destroyed Old Master Qiu''s confidence.
Qiushui Logistics was fined a huge sum and ordered to stop business for three months, and the Qiu
family seemed to be on the brink of bankruptcy.
The Qiu family found themselves in a precarious situation very quickly. After being in operation for
decades, their business was tottering dangerously.
The Qiu family schemed and wishfully thought they could smother Mufan Real Estate before it even
opened for business and trample Qiu Mu-Cheng beneath their feet. But they didn''t imagine that the Qiu
family wouldn''t get their way and would dig their own graves and push their family into a bottomless
abyss.
Halting operations for three months to reorganize their business was a huge impact on the Qiu family.
Also, the leaders of Qiushui Logistics, Qiu Mu-Ying and Qiu Guang, were both thrown into jail, and it
was an almost fatal blow to the Qiu family.
Fortunately, it was the first time Qiu Mu-Ying and Qiu Guangmitted tax evasion, so ording to
thew, they just had to pay the tax to leave prison.
After the incident transpired, Qiu Mu-Ying''s mother and Qiu Guang''s wife implored Old Master Qiu to
help make up for the tax charges so that they could get them out of prison.
"Do you have the cheek to beg me? Those two assholes destroyed my life''s work! I keep saying that
regardless of profitability, Qiushui Logistics can''t break thew. But look at what happened now? Those
two evaded taxes to line their pockets, so they deserve their ending! How dare you ask me for money
to get Qiu Mu-Ying and Qiu Guang out of prison? Dream on! Even if I had the money, I wouldn''t bail
them out. I, Qiu Zheng-Lun, lived all my life as an upright man, but they ruined my reputation!" scolded
Qiu Zheng-Lun furiously with his face flushing and his body trembling.
Qiu Zheng-Lun thought that their family was always upright and had nothing to fear about this police
investigation.
Yet when the police discovered the truth, Qiu Zheng-Lun''s face pain stung in pain from the humiliation.
No one else in the Qiu familymitted crimes except the two whom he trusted the most. Qiu Guang
and Qiu Mu-Ying lined their own pockets through false ounting and stealing the funds intended for
tax payment. They ended up getting both themselves and thepany in trouble.
"I was blind to believe both you bastards!” roared Qiu Zheng-Lun furiously as his shout reverberated
through the halls of the
Qiu residence.

After that, Old Master Qiu fell severely ill and was hospitalized.
Qiu Guang and Qiu Luo''s wives realized Old Master Qiu wasn''t nning on scooping Qiu Guang and
Qiu Mu-Ying out of prison, so they had no choice but to find some other way.
They couldn''t sit by and just watch Qiu Mu-Ying and Qiu Guang get imprisoned.
"I heard that Qiu Mu-Ying''s mother couldn''t bear to fork out the money and wanted the Chu family to
help get Qiu Mu-Ying out of prison, but the Chu family just ignored her. In the end, she had to sell one
of Qiu Mu-Ying''s houses to pay the tax. Your first uncle''s family was in a better situation. Although they
didn''t have to sell their home or cars, they probably still lost their family fortunepletely. Qiu Mu-
Ying and your first uncle have been released from prison and are probably resting at home. They are
probably too embarrassed
to go out."
It was evening and almost time for Qiu Mu-Cheng to knock off. Just when she finally had the time to
rx, her girlfriend, Su Qian, popped by and updated her about the Qiu family''s recent predicament.
In the past, if Qiu Mu-Cheng found out that the Qiu family was in trouble, she would have gone around
hysterically begging for help to get Qiu Guang and Qiu Mu-Ying out of jail.
But when Qiu Mu-Cheng heard Su Qian telling her about it now, she felt exceptionally calm, and there
wasn''t a ripple of emotion on her pretty face.
Perhaps the Qiu family truly hurt her badly this time.
After Qiu Mu-Cheng lost her sense of belonging to her family, it was natural that she felt calm even
when they met with catastrophe.
The only person Qiu Mu-Cheng still cared about was perhaps her grandfather, Old
Master Qiu.
After all, Old Master Qiu doted on her the most among all his grandchildren when she was a child.
Except he was misled and trusted the wrong people.
"What about Grandpa?" asked Qiu Mu-Cheng softly as she asked Su Qian.
Su Qian smiled gently and replied, "Do you mean Old Master Qiu? He fell terribly ill but was saved. By
now, he has probably recovered and gotten discharged. But I have to admit, Mu-Cheng, that your
grandfather is impressive. After this catastrophe, he still doesn''t want to give up. Instead, he ordered
for your cousin, Qiu Mu-Qi, to return from abroad. It looks like he wants to rely on his eldest grandson
to make aeback. Once your cousin gets back, I think life might get difficult for you again."
Su Qian shook her head as she spoke and looked worried for Qiu Mu-Cheng.
