Long Shuai's breath hitched.

Will he spend three to ten years in jail?

Unless he's out of his mind or has some kind of perverted hobby, who would willingly endure such torment and suffering?

"Okay, you win!"

After much deliberation, Long Shuai clenched his fist and let it loosen weakly.

Wang Qian made a gesture of invitation at the opportune moment, "Go ahead and speak, I'm all ears."

"Our plan is as you see in the video."

Long Shuai pointed to the camera in Wang Qian's hand, "I'll give the poison to Zhou Yuanyuan's parents and have them bring Zhou Yuanyuan out so we can find a way to make her drink it."

“If Zhou Yuanyuan dies in your company, her parents can sue you and demand a large sum of compensation.”

"And your reputation and that of your company will also be damaged."

"That's our goal!"

"Is that all?" Wang Qian said meaningfully, "And what about you? What are you doing all this for Yuanyuan's parents?"

Long Shuai frowned slightly.

He wanted to say that he had already told Zhou Yuanyuan's parents in the video, hadn't he?

However, after staring at Wang Qian for a moment, he knew that this excuse would not fool Wang Qian, so he shrugged helplessly, "You should have guessed by now, I'm just doing what people do for money."

"Whose money are you taking, and whose troubles are you solving for?" Wang Qian pressed.

"Didn't you already guess?" Long Shuai retorted.

"I want to hear you say it yourself!" Wang Qian insisted.

Long Shuai's expression shifted. He glanced around, then asked with a look of surprise and uncertainty, "You've installed other cameras here?"

"Speak!"

Wang Qian did not deny it, but said, "Now, whether you say it or not, there is not much difference."

Long Shuai was immediately enraged, "Wang Qian, you are truly insidious!"

"Compared to you, I am but a small fry compared to a big fish."

Wang Qian shook his head. "At least I never intentionally harm anyone, but you can kill innocent people without hesitation in order to achieve your goals."

Commander Long was speechless.

The facts are clear, and there's no point in him trying to argue anymore.

Moreover, Wang Qian admitted that there was a hidden camera pointed at him, and the more he said, the more he exposed.

"It's Liu Qingqing's father, Liu Jingzhong!"

Knowing he couldn't hide it any longer, Commander Long had no choice but to tell the truth: "He ordered me to deal with you!"

"How much money did he give you?" Wang Qian pressed.

He had long suspected that Liu Jingzhong was the mastermind behind it all.

All he wanted was for Commander Long to say it himself.

Just as Long Shuai guessed, there was indeed a hidden camera, the purpose of which was to record the other party's statement.

"If I can destroy your company, he'll give me two hundred thousand!"

After a pause, Long Shuai added, "If he can get you to go to jail again, he'll give me another 100,000."

"Wow, that's really generous!"

Wang Qian couldn't help but exclaim, "Liu Jingzhong really spared no expense to get revenge on me."

"Is there anything else you want to know?" Long Shuai was starting to get impatient.

He felt like a prisoner being tried by a judge, a feeling that made him incredibly frustrated.

“Recount from beginning to end how Liu Jingzhong paid you to deal with me.”

Wang Qian emphasized, "Remember, don't miss any details. Otherwise, if you conceal anything now and the police find out later, your crime will be compounded."

"Know!"

Long Shuai's tone was filled with resentment, but even more so with helplessness.

Next, he recounted how Liu Jingzhong approached him and their deal.

"Like father, like daughter!"

After listening, a cold glint flashed in Wang Qian's eyes.

According to Long Shuai, he had previously accepted money from Liu Qingqing and planned to secretly bribe Zhou Yuanyuan, but the attempt failed because Zhou Yuanyuan confessed to Lin Chao.

After Liu Qingqing was sentenced to prison, Liu Jingzhong secretly contacted Long Shuai again.

However, the expert was far more skilled than Liu Qingqing.

Liu Jingzhong promised to give Long Shuai even more money; he would give him 200,000 yuan if he could bring down Long Shuai's company.

If you can get him into jail, I'll give you 300,000.

However, Liu Jingzhong himself did not participate in any of Long Shuai's plans at all, and only paid according to the results. In fact, Long Shuai did not need to tell Liu Jingzhong the specifics of how to do things.

It must be said that this practice of paying for a hitman can indeed get you involved to the greatest extent possible.

However, no matter how cunning Liu Jingzhong is, with Commander Long's confession, he can forget about truly staying out of it.

"Previously, Liu Qingqing spent money to make Ren Guoliang take poison voluntarily in order to achieve her goal. Now, Liu Jingzhong is also resorting to such unscrupulous means to get revenge on you. The father and daughter are indeed quite alike."

Finally, Huang Bo concluded through gritted teeth, "Both of them are inhuman beasts."

Wang Qian didn't answer Huang Bo's question. Instead, he picked up the camera from the corner, turned off the recording, and said to Yang Shenglong, "Take Long Shuai downstairs to rest first. We'll need his help with some things later."

Yang Shenglong nodded, walked to Long Shuai's side, and said, "Come with me!"

Long Shuai frowned and asked, "Wang Qian, what exactly do you want me to do?"

I'll tell you after I've thought it through!

Wang Qian gave a meaningful reminder: "Before that, you'd better not do anything foolish, after all..."

He pointed to the camera he had just turned off, "I recorded two copies of your statement. If either one is handed over to the police, you'll be in deep trouble."

"Wang Qian, you are utterly despicable!"

Long Shuai was so angry that he cursed loudly.

But when Wang Qian looked at him with sharp eyes, he chickened out and said in a show of bravado, "Is it only if I fully cooperate that you will let me go?"

"That depends on your performance."

Wang Qian waved his hand, "Yang Shenglong will find you a place to rest. When we need your cooperation, I'll have him call you."

Long Shuai's eyes were filled with resentment.

But now that things have come to this, he has no choice.

He was at the mercy of others, like a fish on a chopping board; he had no choice but to cooperate.

"Wang Qian, now that we know who's behind this, what are your plans for the next step?"

After Yang Shenglong took Long Shuai away, Huang Bo came over and asked.

“Since Liu Jingzhong is still not giving up, I’ll send him to prison to reunite with his daughter,” Wang Qian said coldly.

"Relying solely on Long Shuai's side of the story is probably not enough," Huang Bo reminded him.

"Then we'll find a way to make him confess!" Wang Qian said in a deep voice.

"But without solid evidence, who can force him to confess?" Huang Bo shrugged.

"He will!"

Wang Qian said fiercely, "Perhaps it's because I've been too kind all along that, over time, I might have given them the false impression that I only know how to passively defend myself."

"What are you trying to say?" Huang Bo seemed to understand but not quite.

"Even the strongest fortress will eventually have a lapse in its defenses, and a single oversight could lead to utter ruin."

Wang Qian took a deep breath and said, word by word, "This time, I will take the initiative!"
