Jiang Xuan clapped her hands and got into position, practicing her boxing techniques, which was a D-level physical technique called "Enemy Capture and Kill Boxing."
"This set of Enemy Capture and Kill Boxing emphasizes capturing, with steady, accurate, and fierce movements. However, it's better if the movements have a curve and a sense of rhythm. Look at this move, the Throat Lock, when you bend your arm, you need to lower your shoulder and draw a curve, an elliptical impact, to generate rotational force, sealing the throat with one claw!"
Jiang Li immediately pointed out his sister's shortcomings.
He demonstrated the martial arts, utilizing some techniques from "Bone Twisting and Rotational Kill."
Sure enough, under his guidance, Jiang Xuan's practice became much more powerful, each move becoming smoother, not as straightforward as before. This allowed for more flexibility between moves, making her body more agile.
At the same time, in the suburbs, in a large villa.
Hey!
Zheng Wenbing was practicing his boxing, sparring with a middle-aged man wearing traditional Chinese clothing, clearly a martial arts teacher.
The two were fighting each other, with Zheng Wenbing attacking fiercely, every move sharp and powerful, using a D-level physical technique called "Rolling Stone Fist."
But the middle-aged man moved casually, no matter how fierce Zheng Wenbing's punches were, they would spin away upon touching his fists, not affecting his body at all.
Finally, Zheng Wenbing was exhausted, stopping and sweating profusely.
"Master Wang, I can't do it anymore," he panted heavily.
"Your physical condition is too poor. To increase your vitality to 1 in a short time, a miracle would have to happen," Master Wang said, "I, Wang Daorong, can't make you leap to the top in one step."
"Master Wang, you are the martial arts teacher my father hired at a high salary. Please teach me the best cultivation methods. I must increase my vitality to 1 by the end of this semester, no matter the cost," Zheng Wenbing gritted his teeth.
"There's no possibility, the time is too short," Wang Daorong shook his head, "My family is an ancient martial arts lineage, from the beginning of China to the present space age, our understanding of martial arts is very thorough. No matter what technique, you must understand it yourself. Unless you enter the second stage of deep sleep from now on! Otherwise, even if you eat any super supplements, your body won't absorb them, and you'll suffer from excess nutrition."
"Is there no way at all?"
"Only you can subdue your mind. However, I have an ancient mental cultivation secret technique from the Wang family that I can teach you," Wang Daorong stood with his hands behind his back, looking very dignified, clearly not an ordinary person.
"Great!" Zheng Wenbing was delighted. At that moment, the phone rang. He pressed a button, and a person appeared: "Brother Bing, I've investigated what you asked me to. It's all clear, and the matter is settled. However, that Jiang Li is actually a one-star citizen."
"What? A one-star citizen? What's going on? How did he suddenly become so important?" Zheng Wenbing's face twisted.
"It seems that the boy participated in a police task and helped capture a member of a restoration organization, the Illusion Fox. The police gave him a major commendation."
"How can we deal with a one-star citizen? What about his parents?" Zheng Wenbing fiercely swung his arm, making a loud noise. "I need to threaten him by dealing with his parents."
"His parents are easy to deal with. I'm fabricating false accounts and can directly accuse them of economic crimes today. I'll report to the police, and they have already started the investigation. Threatening the two brothers will be easy. Also, I'll contact the Huaxu black market to see if the black market boxing boss wants them. We can send the two brothers there to work for us."
"Great, great!"
Zheng Wenbing laughed, "Brother, you've brought me good news."
"Of course, you can call Jiang Tao and Jiang Li now. I think the police have already summoned their parents. The two brothers have very strong vitality, and the black market boxing boss likes them very much," the voice on the phone was also sinister.
"Ha ha ha... Jiang Li, Jiang Tao, you two are done for. Of course, I won't let you die. You're so capable, you can be my money-making tools."
"Hallucination Fox?" Wang Daorong didn't care about these small matters, but when he heard "Hallucination Fox," his eyes flashed.
"Another member of the restoration organization...?"
At home, after finishing a set of boxing techniques, Jiang Xuan stopped and looked outside, where it was completely dark. She was puzzled, "Why haven't Mom and Dad come back yet?"
"Yes, at this time, they should have been back long ago," Jiang Li frowned.
Jiang Li had a bad feeling.
His intuition had always been accurate.
Long-term fetal breathing not only develops the body's cells but can also develop the brain and the sixth sense.
Ding dong, ding dong...
The doorbell rang.
"Mom and Dad are back!" Jiang Xuan happily went to open the door.
But when the door opened, several people in police uniforms appeared, expressionless. "Is this the home of Jiang Zhendong?"
"Yes," Jiang Li walked out, seeing his sister's face turn pale.
"Are you Jiang Zhendong's child?" One of the officers took out a piece of paper.
"Yes," Jiang Li remained calm.
"Your parents are suspected of embezzling company assets and are now under investigation. According to regulations, they will be detained for fifteen days during which their violations will be investigated." An officer handed the paper to Jiang Li, which was an investigation order.
"No..." Jiang Xuan screamed.
"Okay, sister, don't get excited." Jiang Li pulled his sister inside, "I'm sorry, my sister is underage and emotionally agitated. According to regulations, this doesn't interfere with the legal process, right?"
"This doesn't count." The officers, seeing his calmness, nodded. One of them said, "This doesn't interfere with the legal process. We have delivered the investigation order. You can hire a lawyer and request to see the suspects. Do not engage in any private actions that interfere with the legal process. You should have learned these legal courses. And this is just an investigation; whether they are guilty or not depends on the results."
"Okay, I understand." Jiang Li watched as they left, having calmed down.
"Brother, what do we do? Our parents wouldn't do such a thing; they must have been framed. What do we do?" Jiang Xuan cried, "Call Second Brother; he must have a way."
"No!" Jiang Li's eyes flashed, "Don't call Second Brother. He's impulsive, and if he does something rash, it will be worse. I feel we are caught in a conspiracy. And what about his studies? Our parents definitely don't want us to tell him. And they will call us. They haven't called because they don't want us to be distracted."
"What do we do?" Jiang Xuan was at a loss, being just a teenager.
"Someone framing our parents is undeniable." Jiang Li thought for a moment, remaining very calm, "Precautions are always necessary. It seems Zheng Wenbing is behind this? Last time, he threatened to make our parents lose their jobs. I didn't expect him to be so ruthless! But I have a plan. Don't worry, I'll make a call."
He had been prepared for this, and it finally happened.
His sister was almost in tears, but seeing Jiang Li calmly dialing the phone, she gradually calmed down.
Ding ding ding...
The call connected, and it was Manager Lei.
"Hey, Brother Jiang Li, what's up?" Manager Lei's virtual image appeared, "I really appreciate you. Miss Sprite is almost cured. I've already reported to the chairman, and once she is fully recovered, there will be a significant reward."
He was now very enthusiastic towards Jiang Li, even calling him brother.
"Thanks, but I need your help."
Jiang Li's parents worked at a subsidiary of the Xue Group, and Manager Lei was a senior manager at the Xue Group. Last time, when Zheng Wenbing threatened to make his parents lose their jobs, Jiang Li had been prepared. Now, as soon as the incident happened, he called immediately.
"What help? I'll definitely help!" Manager Lei was eager to build a relationship.
"It's like this..." Jiang Li explained the situation, "I'm counting on you. In the future, if Manager Lei needs anything, I'll do my best to help."
"What? Such a thing? How dare they!" Manager Lei exclaimed, "Wait, I'll check immediately and get your parents released! Don't worry, they will be fine! I can handle this with a word. Wait for me for half an hour!"
"Okay, Manager Lei, I'm waiting for your good news."
Jiang Li knew Manager Lei had great influence and could easily command a subsidiary.
"Sister, let's go to the police station to see Mom and Dad. According to the usual procedure, they are just assisting in the investigation and will be questioned. They will be fine. The law is very complete now, and the police will follow the rules."
Jiang Li waved his hand, "Don't tell Second Brother; he might lose control. I know who framed our parents. If my guess is correct, the person who framed them will likely call soon."
Half an hour later.
Ding ding ding...
Manager Lei called again, "Brother Jiang, it's settled. Your parents have been released, and I've already used the company's resources to start the investigation. Preliminary findings suggest it was a setup by a superior at the company. I've already reported it, and they are being summoned. Additionally, I've sent people to bring your parents home and will arrange for them to join the Xue Group's parent company with a promotion as compensation."
"Thank you, thank you." Jiang Li expressed his gratitude.
"It's our company's fault. Such an incident should not have happened. Thanks to your alert, we avoided a scandal. Compensating your parents is the least we can do. You can call them now."
"Okay, I'll call them."
Jiang Li dialed his father's number.
Sure enough, the call connected, and his father's voice came through, "Jiang Li, right? Are you asking why we're so late? Your mother and I had a small issue. There was a financial problem at the company, and we were assisting the police in the investigation. Now it's clear, and we are discussing compensation with the company. A company car will take us home in about an hour. If you're hungry, go out and eat; you don't have to wait for us."
His father sounded relaxed.
Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief.
Ding ding ding...
Just as he hung up, a call from an unknown number came in.
Jiang Li pressed the button.
Instantly, a virtual image appeared, and it was Zheng Wenbing.
"Zheng Wenbing, it's you!" Jiang Li's suspicions were confirmed, and he remained very calm because his father was safe.
"Jiang Li, don't get angry," Zheng Wenbing laughed sinisterly, very pleased, "I'm sure you've received the police notification? Your parents are under investigation? They were really bold, daring to embezzle company funds?"
"Zheng Wenbing, you've crossed the line."
Jiang Li spoke through gritted teeth.
"Did you cross my line?" Zheng Wenbing's tone was sinister, "Jiang Li, you dared to slap me. I said I wouldn't fight you. Only brutes fight in this society."
"Did you frame my parents?" Jiang Li had already calmed down and started recording.
"My actions have nothing to do with your parents. They embezzled company funds, and the company isn't mine. What does it have to do with me? But as classmates, I can help you!" Zheng Wenbing seemed to know Jiang Li was recording and answered carefully, "Enough talk. Come to Box 9 on Dongmen Street immediately, within half an hour. Also, persuade your brother to work for me and apologize. If he doesn't listen, you know the consequences!"
"I'm coming, wait for me." Jiang Li hung up the phone.
