That man drew the attention of everyone around him, so they came over and wrestled to take a look at the newspapers.
“Quick, let me have a look. Let me have a look…”
“I want to see it too…”
“Quick… It’s the headlines!”
“Wah! Calm down, everyone. The news is online too. It’s on Eastern Wave Network’s website. It’s printed clearly, and there’s even a photo…”
“Smuggling and hiding firearms… It was indeed like what Lu Suyan said. The Yuan family is also involved. Tsk, tsk. No one would have thought…”
In a moment, everyone was all focused on this piece of news on the bus. They were discussing it rowdily.
Even the bus driver got a little anxious. He wanted to read the news too.
The person sitting behind him read the news out loud as he scrolled through on his phone. Once the bus driver knew what was going on, he was not so anxious anymore.
Many people forgot to get off the bus because of this explosive and shocking piece of news.
The crowd and traffic were heaviest at seven in the morning. The people walking on the streets were either looking at their phones, newspapers, or magazines. Some were even eating their breakfast…
This morning was exceptionally lively. Everyone used to keep to themselves on the streets. Now, they were all walking in groups and having heated discussions about the news.
Some people just ate their breakfast in a daze while listening to the people beside them talk about the Yuan family smuggling firearms.
After they heard that, they snapped out of their daze and stopped eating. Their sleepiness was gone instantly as they quickly took out their phones to search for it. However, it was not on the main page of the news.
Someone entered the two words, ‘Yuan family,’ and he immediately saw the headlines on the Eastern Wave News Network. After he read it, he was so shocked that he jumped up at once and walked off without caring about the red light.
Situations like these happened one after another. Even the cars on the road sped past quite a few red lights because the people driving were busy reading the news.
The whole morning, the number of cars that flouted the traffic rules increased one after another. This caused the traffic to be jammed as well.
The traffic police had no choice but to go on the roads to direct the traffic.
Back when the Lu family was caught, the capital had not been so chaotic. However, when the Yuan family was reported, everyone was shocked and started to make their own guesses. They were also curious…
There were all kinds of emotions.
After all, the Yuan family was one of the top noble families in the capital. The Lu family still could not compare to the Yuan family.
Furthermore, the Yuan family and the Han family were engaged. The photo of Yuan Shuangrui yesterday was also uploaded on social media, and this piece of news was as good as entertainment gossip. It was something that people would read for some excitement to relax when they were bored or tired.
Within a short span of an hour, when it was around eight in the morning, most of the people in the capital knew about this incident. The photo and the caption spelled it out clearly. Even an illiterate person would understand what was going on just from the photo.
There was really an uproar in the capital now.
In the hospital, when Yun Bixue was eating breakfast, she could hear the voices of the doctors and nurses talking. Of course, it was about the Yuan family.
Yun Bixue looked up at Xie Limo and realized that her husband remained calm and at ease. He looked so elegant even when he was eating. “Limo, the news on the Yuan family had come out.”
“Yeah. After sending in the firearms, this was the chance we were waiting for. The Yuan family cannot escape this time.”
“What if Majesty Kang continues to shield the Yuan family?”
“Unless he doesn’t care about his own reputation. Furthermore, this time, it’s not something he can suppress even if he wants to.”
“If Majesty Kang knew that we did it, wouldn’t we be in a completely opposite camp against him?”
Xie Limo scooped a spoonful of soup for Yun Bixue and said gently, “If that’s the case, we’ll find someone who appears to be opposed to Majesty Kang.”
