Dragon Head Supreme Chapter 141
Chapter 141: A Contract? I Have One Too
Ten minutes later, two police cars pulled up directly in front of Electronic Dynasty.
Six or seven members of the Law Enforcement Team stepped out, led by Zhang Feng. Seeing them arrive, Sui Fa and his men, who had been hiding in the shadows, rushed forward immediately.
“Captain Zhang, you’re just in time!”
“Look, the store’s lock has been forcibly broken! This… this is no different from daylight robbery!”
“You have to stand up for us!” Sui Fa pleaded with a pitiful expression.
Zhang Feng took the contract from Sui Fa’s hand and scanned through it. After confirming its validity, he led his team straight into Electronic Dynasty.
Just as he stepped through the entrance, Chen Xue Wen emerged from the office.
“Captain Zhang, what an unexpected guest!”
“Come, come, have a seat!” Chen Xue Wen greeted him with a broad smile, acting as if he were the true owner of the place.
Zhang Feng waved a hand dismissively, his tone serious. “Chen Xue Wen, someone has reported that you broke the lock and forcibly took over another person’s business premises.”
“I need to take you back for questioning. I hope you will cooperate!”
Chen Xue Wen glanced at Sui Fa standing to the side and chuckled lightly. “Captain Zhang, this is a misunderstanding.”
“Yes, we did break the lock, but this is our store. We lost the keys, so we had no choice but to break in. Is that a crime?”
Zhang Feng’s expression darkened. “Chen Xue Wen, don’t try to play games with me!”
“I know exactly who owns this place!”
“Boss Hu and Snake jointly ran this store. Boss Hu transferred his share to Liu Quan, with a clear-cut contract to prove it. That means Liu Quan now has full business rights.”
“What does this have to do with you?”
Chen Xue Wen smiled. “Captain Zhang, I also have a clear-cut contract that proves the business rights belong to me.”
Zhang Feng was stunned. “You!?”
“What contract?”
Sui Fa was equally dumbfounded and quickly interjected, “Impossible!”
“Boss Hu already transferred the rights to Uncle Quan. How could he have signed another contract with you?”
“If he did, then… then that would be fraud! Your contract wouldn’t be valid!”
Chen Xue Wen smirked. “Who said my contract was with Boss Hu?”
“Mine was signed with Snake!”
“A week ago, Snake transferred Electronic Dynasty to me.”
The revelation sent shockwaves through the crowd.
Zhang Feng was the first to raise his voice. “Chen Xue Wen, do you think I’m an idiot?”
“Snake transferred Electronic Dynasty to you?”
“You expect me to believe that?”
Behind him, Sui Fa and his men erupted in protest, calling Chen Xue Wen a liar.
Unfazed, Chen Xue Wen calmly pulled out his contract and smiled. “Captain Zhang, the contract is right here. If you don’t believe me, take a look.”
Zhang Feng waved a hand in irritation. “No need!”
“That contract is definitely fake. I don’t need to look at it!”
Chen Xue Wen’s eyes turned cold as he stared at Zhang Feng and spoke in a soft yet firm voice. “Captain Zhang, whether the contract is real or fake can only be determined through verification.”
“If you refuse to even look at it and immediately declare it fake…”
“Heh, is this how the Law Enforcement Team operates?”
Zhang Feng’s face darkened. If Chen Xue Wen pursued this line of argument, it could spell trouble for him.
The truth was, Zhang Feng had suffered setbacks at Chen Xue Wen’s hands before and was wary of him. Though reluctant, he took the contract and examined it carefully. His frown deepened.
The contract looked legitimate, but Zhang Feng knew it had to be forged.
The problem was, he wasn’t qualified to make that call.
Determining its authenticity would require expert examination from the Judicial Department.
Chen Xue Wen, still smiling, continued, “Captain Zhang, this contract was personally signed by Snake.”
“Sixty grand in cash—I paid him on the spot.”
“Electronic Dynasty was jointly owned by Snake and Boss Hu. Boss Hu had his share of the business, and Snake had his.”
“I bought Snake’s share, which gives me legitimate business rights. There’s no issue with that, is there?”
Zhang Feng’s brows furrowed deeply. “Chen Xue Wen, the authenticity of this contract isn’t up to you to decide. It needs to be verified.”
“But I’m warning you—forging contracts is a crime!”
Chen Xue Wen chuckled. “Captain Zhang, feel free to verify it.”
“However, until the results are in, I expect you to uphold the legal rights of all business owners and prevent any unauthorized interference with our operations.”
Before drafting the contract, Chen Xue Wen had consulted Lawyer He, who had made specific adjustments. Even if the contract underwent verification, it would be impossible to prove it was fake.
Lawyer He was an expert in these matters.
Zhang Feng held the contract, looking from Chen Xue Wen to Sui Fa. After a long silence, he declared, “Until the contract’s authenticity is determined, both of you have temporary business rights.”
“Figure out a way to co-manage the store together.”
Sui Fa’s face turned grim. Co-managing with Chen Xue Wen? That would be impossible. There was no way Chen Xue Wen would allow him any real control.
Sui Fa quickly protested, “Captain Zhang, that’s not fair!”
“His contract might be fake, but more importantly, Boss Hu is the majority shareholder!”
“Snake only held a small portion of shares!”
“Based on ownership percentage, we should have greater authority!”
Chen Xue Wen scoffed. “Sui Fa, that’s a weak argument.”
“Snake’s shares may have been small, but I paid real money for them.”
“As for you… I heard that while your contract was signed, the money hasn’t been transferred yet.”
“If the funds haven’t gone through, your contract likely hasn’t taken effect, has it?”
That single statement silenced Sui Fa.
Uncle Quan was notoriously stingy. He wanted to seize Electronic Dynasty without actually paying Boss Hu.
During the contract signing, the agreed sum of one million yuan had been structured as future profit-sharing, meaning no payment had actually been made.
With this loophole exposed, Sui Fa had no defense.
Scratching his head, he mumbled, “Then… then who can prove you paid Snake?”
Chen Xue Wen smirked. “Who can prove that I didn’t?”
Sui Fa: “You… you—”
Chen Xue Wen patted his shoulder. “Enough of that. Boss Hu can confirm that you haven’t paid up.”
“But you have no proof that I didn’t pay Snake.”
“So, Captain Zhang, you know who should stay and who should leave, don’t you?”
In the end, Zhang Feng had no choice but to expel Sui Fa and his men from Electronic Dynasty.
With no way to disprove the validity of Chen Xue Wen’s contract, and with Uncle Quan failing to pay up, the only option was to recognize Chen Xue Wen’s claim—for now.
