Wen Qiao returned to China in mid-October of the following year.
She never expected that she would be summoned by Zhao Qingzhou as soon as she returned to the country. Zhao Qingzhou took her to meet a big shot whom Wen Qiao never thought she would meet.
It was from this important figure that Wen Qiao learned that Wen Zhengnian had embezzled a huge sum of money from China back then.
Wen Zhengnian's assets in China are now worth over a billion US dollars.
The higher-ups have been eyeing Wen Zhengnian's money for years, but they haven't been able to extradite him back from abroad. Wen Zhengnian pays a huge amount of tax to the local governments abroad every year. In addition, Wen Zhengnian has opened banks, factories, manors, and farms in the local area, which not only generates income for the local area but also increases local employment opportunities.
Wen Qiao never expected that she would go from being the one who actively wanted a divorce to being the one who was now forced into it.
Zhao Qingzhou personally escorted Wen Qiao back home.
Along the way, Wen Qiao felt that the burden on her shoulders was too heavy, so heavy that she could hardly bear it.
"Comrade Wen Qiao, I'm very sorry, you can only be involved in this matter. But don't worry, we will take care of everything abroad. You just need to make Wen Zhengnian believe in you and successfully inherit those assets. Then we will find a way to bring you back to China."
What I promised you, I will deliver.
Wen Qiao hesitated for a moment and said, "Director Zhao, I really didn't expect that he had so many assets. I originally thought that if I could inherit that money, I would use it to do something that would benefit the country's development."
Zhao Qingzhou said, “It’s normal that you don’t know. Back then, he was a big shot in Shanghai, the head of the Shanghai Bank, but things were too chaotic at that time. The political situation was chaotic, and the government was in chaos. Before our party took the initiative to find him, he took all his assets and transferred them all to the United States.”
"Over the years, the higher-ups have put in a lot of effort. But the local government has protected him, and the higher-ups have no way to intervene. I just never expected that Wen Zhengnian's only bloodline granddaughter would be you, and someone from our Ministry of Foreign Affairs."
"I will approve your resignation to go abroad to find Wen Zhengnian directly. Now, you need to persuade Commander Shen. If he is unwilling, the organization may also have a talk with him..."
Wen Qiao nodded.
"I understand, I'll talk to him."
This whole thing was just a plan that Wen Qiao came up with herself from the very beginning.
Now it has become part of the organization's plan. In fact, Wen Qiao knows that the organization also wants to use her relationship with Wen Zhengnian. If Wen Qiao can gain Wen Zhengnian's trust and bring him back to China, that would be the best outcome. The rest is none of Wen Qiao's concern.
However, if Wen Qiao did not bring Wen Zhengnian back to China, Wen Zhengnian is now quite old and probably won't live for more than a few years. In that case, Wen Qiao would have to stay abroad to accompany him and successfully inherit his estate.
After Wen Qiao completes her inheritance, she will have no choice but to follow the organization's arrangements and return to China.
The organization promised her too many things, so many that Wen Qiao was a little overwhelmed. But in reality, she knew that you shouldn't be greedy and ask for more than you are promised.
After all, the organization said that the money was originally money that Wen Zhengnian had plundered from the people of China.
Wen Qiao returned home in a daze. When Shen Jichuan saw Wen Qiao, he didn't seem surprised or astonished.
He simply got up quickly and walked to Wen Qiao's side.
He reached out and touched her face, whispering, "Why have you lost so much weight? Didn't I tell you to take care of yourself while you're abroad?"
"Shen Jichuan, I miss you. Let's go upstairs."
He'd been with Wen Qiao for so many years, how could he not know what Wen Qiao was up to?
She wanted him.
Shen Jichuan chuckled softly, "In broad daylight, why the rush? The kids will be home from school soon. Who brought you back? Why didn't you invite them in for a chat?"
If Wen Qiao were to come back on her own, she would definitely call him in advance. This was something they had agreed upon. The person who is away shouldn't feel like they are troubling the person at home too much.
You can call me for anything.
Communication is paramount between them.
