Wenxiu and Su Haoxuan faced many media reporters and said that they had been deceived and that the mother and her two children were just actors who were trying to cheat people out of money.

When the reporter asked again about the cause of the fire at Lancheng Hotel.

Su Haoxuan smiled lightly, "There are many things that even I don't know. If you want to know the details, go find the police officer in charge of the case."

Su Haoxuan and Wenxiu sent away these troublesome reporters and returned to their grandmother's residence.

Their butts had just sat on the stools and they weren't even warm enough yet.

Uncle Wang hurried over to Grandma Su again and said, "Madam, there are several plainclothes policemen who want to see you and Young Master Su. They have already come in."

As Uncle Wang was speaking, three plainclothes policemen walked in.

The three police officers greeted everyone politely.

Su Haoxuan greeted them warmly and sat with them on the sofa in the living room.

Wenxiu hurried to make tea for a few people.

A police officer said politely: "We won't drink the tea. We'll just sit for a while and then leave."

Another officer opened his briefcase, took out the folder, and looked at it.

"After investigating the burning of Lancheng Hotel, we have found some clues. The arsonists are the two people who killed the unidentified man."

"Based on the surveillance video you provided, we used artificial big data to track and search, and we have preliminary results. Those two people are repeat offenders who were released from prison not long ago and are currently on the run. There must be someone behind them directing them. As long as we catch these two people, the case will be solved quickly."

"As for the unidentified deceased, we also used AI artificial big data to compare his walking movements and body shape, and found that he was a homeless person with mental problems."

"We used AI big data to draw his portrait and conducted secret visits in the streets and alleys of Lanzhou. Many people have seen him, but everyone said he had been missing for several days."

"According to people who are familiar with the homeless man, he is from the countryside. We also went to his home in his hometown to investigate. His name is Hu Dahai."

Su Haoxuan felt nervous and asked in a daze, "Does he have a wife and two children?"

The police officer smiled and said, "He is just a mentally ill homeless man who has not even gotten married. How could he have a child? Who told you that?"

Su Haoxuan then told them what had just happened.

The three police officers pondered for a while. "It seems that those people have become so unscrupulous that they dare to blatantly cheat and rob money. Why didn't you call the police just now? At least we can catch the mastermind behind her."

Another policeman went on to say: "Manager Sun from the External Relations Department of the Su Group and a man named Su Wei colluded with each other to short the data and launder money for cash."

"We have no intention of catching them for now. There must be a bigger fish behind them. We will close the net when that fish takes the bait."

Starting from tomorrow, your Lancheng Hotel will be fully lifted from the ban.

Grandma Su looked at the police with red eyes.

She was very grateful to them for coming to her house in person to tell her the good news.

The three police officers stood up and prepared to leave. Grandma Su held their hands tightly and insisted that they drink tea before leaving.

The plainclothes police had no choice but to drink the tea that Grandma Su personally served to them.

The three of them took a bite and looked at each other in surprise.

One of them asked in surprise: "This tea tastes so good and is really refreshing. We have never had it before."

Grandma Su nodded to Uncle Wang, and Uncle Wang nodded in understanding. Then he took out three packets of top-quality tea and gave them to them as a way of repaying their kindness.

The three policemen refused again and again, put the tea leaves they had received back on the coffee table, and turned away.

After seeing the police off, Grandma Su paced back and forth in the living room.

As she walked, she rubbed her hands together and said to herself, "I want to renovate the Lancheng Hotel and strive to make it a five-star hotel with the top brand in the Lancheng hotel industry and restore its former glory."

Su Haoxuan looked at his grandmother's happy expression.

He hurried over, took grandma's hand, and said with a smile: "Grandma, let's revive Lancheng Hotel. Tell me, how much will it cost? I'll invest. Is 200 million enough?"

Grandma shook her head, held up five fingers, and smiled, "At least this number."

"Grandma, five hundred million is a lot!"

Su Haoxuan recalled that Wenxiu had purchased the entire Lanxing Hotel building for only three hundred million yuan in total.

He stared at his grandmother in a daze.

Grandma Su chuckled and suddenly curled her lips and laughed, "Silly child, this amount of money is just my rough estimate based on experience. What's more, I will pay for it myself, so why are you standing there in a daze?"

In Grandma Su's living room, the atmosphere was now filled with more laughter than in the previous few days.

Su Haoxuan's phone suddenly rang, and there was another anonymous text message: "Su Haoxuan, don't be too happy too soon, your Su family will soon be in ruins, just wait and see!"

Wenxiu stood beside him and glanced at the threatening text message from the side. "Are they threatening you again?"

Su Haoxuan glanced at Wenxiu and nodded, and both of them remained silent.

The peaceful atmosphere in the living room just now has disappeared, and the whole living room has become dead and dull again.

Su Haoxuan held the phone tightly in his hand. This anonymous text message was like a time bomb, making him uneasy.

The other person's eyes seemed to be staring at him all the time. No matter where he was, and his joys and sorrows, the other person knew it all.

Grandma Su sighed softly and broke the silence: "Haoxuan, it's all your grandfather's fault. He didn't listen to me at the beginning. Now, you have been left with such a big trouble."

Su Haoxuan looked at his grandmother with a firm gaze: "Grandma, I know that this was Grandpa's kindness at the time, but we must face reality. The Su family's reputation and industry cannot be destroyed in my hands."

Grandma Su looked at her grandson's determined eyes. She knew Su Haoxuan's character very well. Once he made a decision, he would not change it easily.

She nodded slowly: "Okay, grandma supports you. But you have to remember that the Su family can be what it is today not only because of courage, but more because of wisdom."

Su Haoxuan walked to his grandmother and held her old hand: "Grandma, I will. I need your wisdom to help me out of this predicament."

Grandma Su smiled slightly, with a gleam in her eyes: "Haoxuan, do you remember what your grandfather used to say? 'Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it.' The power of the media is enormous, but it can also be used."

Su Haoxuan's mind lit up, and he understood what his grandmother meant: "Grandma, are you saying that we should make better use of the media to convey our voices?"

Grandma Su nodded: "Yes, and our Su family has had a foundation for so many years, and we have our friends. Now is the time for them to stand up and speak."

Wenxiu stood aside and looked at Su Haoxuan affectionately, "Our Lanxing Hotel's public relations team will also help you!"

Su Haoxuan took immediate action. He contacted the Su family's old friends and business partners and asked for their support.

At the same time, he and his public relations team prepared a press conference to convey the Su family's position and the truth to the public.

At the press conference, Su Haoxuan faced many media outlets and spoke frankly about the difficulties the Su family is currently facing and the measures they have taken.

His sincerity and determination won the sympathy and support of many people present.

However, just as the press conference was about to end.

A reporter asked a pointed question: "Mr. Su, there are rumors that the Su family is laundering money, and some even say that Mr. Su Wei has at least 20% of the shares in the Su family. What is your response to this?"

Su Haoxuan's heart tightened. He knew the seriousness of this question, but he also knew that he had to answer it.

"I understand the outside world's speculation about the Su family, but I can tell you clearly that the Su family has never laundered money. The rumor that Su Wei has shares in the Su Group is completely fabricated. Our Su family will face all the difficulties and challenges ahead." Su Haoxuan's voice was firm and powerful.

After the press conference, Su Haoxuan received a new anonymous text message: "Do you think this will calm the storm? You are too naive. The internal secrets of the Su family are about to be revealed."

Su Haoxuan felt uneasy in his heart. He didn't know what this so-called "inside secret" was, nor did he know what impact it would have on the Su family.

In his and Wenxiu's view, this secret might just be a gimmick to threaten them.
