Upon seeing Shen Jingxiu's car stop, the man in the driver's seat immediately got out and opened the back door for him.
Shen Jingchuan followed suit and got into the passenger seat.
The car was lit up, and as soon as Shen Jingxiu entered, he saw the bag scattered next to Qiao Kexin and the various jewels inside.
Those jewels were so conspicuous that Shen Jingchuan noticed them too.
He couldn't help but let out a disdainful laugh: "What, are you planning to flee to avoid punishment?"
Shen Jingxiu also had a cold smile on his lips: "You certainly know how to pick your time. You left at just the right moment. If my men had been a few minutes later, you would have already taken all this jewelry and flown away."
Qiao Kexin shrank back. She wasn't sure how much Shen Jingxiu knew, so she simply pretended to be ignorant.
"I don't understand what you mean, Mr. Shen. Didn't you tell me to leave City A forever? All I'm doing now is obediently following your orders. I was already about to leave, so what do you mean by calling me back?"
Shen Jingchuan, standing to the side, was speechless. What was going on? What did he mean by telling her to leave? Had they known each other for a long time? The relationship between them was getting more and more complicated.
Upon hearing this, Shen Jingxiu merely sneered. He stared at Qiao Kexin, his face instantly darkening.
Immediately, a stack of papers printed with close-ups of the fake Hou Wenbin's face was thrown at Qiao Kexin's face.
"Open your eyes and look carefully. Tell me who this person is. Don't tell me you don't know him; I don't believe you."
Qiao Kexin quickly picked up the images, looked at them, and immediately shook her head.
“I don’t know him. I really don’t know this person. I’ve never seen him before before seeing these images. What do you mean, Mr. Shen? I’m really scared. You’ve frightened me.”
"Pretend!" Shen Jingxiu glanced at her coldly: "You don't recognize this person? Then you should know Min Xiaxia, right?"
Qiao Kexin shook her head again: "I don't know her either. No, I can't say I don't know her. I've seen her on variety shows, but that's all. I don't know her at all in real life."
"Very well." Shen Jingxiu chuckled. "Are you testing my temper, pretending to be ignorant when you know the truth? You don't recognize this, and you don't recognize that. But what about this thing? You must recognize this, right?"
After Shen Jingxiu finished speaking, he slowly took out a syringe from his pants pocket in front of Qiao Kexin.
"You should be familiar with this. I found it on your stepbrother Qiao Qinglang tonight. I don't know how you originally planned to use this to deal with my sister. But I know how I will deal with you."
Shen Jingchuan: "………… Holy crap! Is our boss really that awesome? Qiao Qinglang has been in the police station for so long without saying a word, how did he get his hands on this thing?"
He's not really going to let this woman use it, is he? Using this thing yourself is administrative detention, but forcing someone else to use it should be illegal and lead to jail time, right?
I never expected that the boss would be such a lunatic!
What's even more frustrating is that he doesn't know what to do now. Should he help the boss hold down the woman surnamed Qiao, or should he try to stop him from committing a crime?
At that moment, Shen Jingxiu had already grabbed Qiao Kexin's arm with a blank expression.
Qiao Kexin struggled, but the car was too small, and she was no match for Shen Jingxiu.
She started begging for mercy before the needle even touched her skin.
"Don't touch me! Please! I'll tell you everything, just please don't do this to me. I really will tell you everything, really!"
“Min Xiaxia approached me first; I really didn’t know her before. We attended the same banquet that day, and she noticed that Wen Yan and I didn’t get along, so she approached me and said she wanted to buy dirt on Wen Yan because she felt that Wen Yan was blocking her way.”
"Later, she wasn't satisfied with just smearing Wen Yan, so she thought she might as well ruin Wen Yan once and for all. The man in the photo you just showed me was also someone Min Xiaxia found."
"She had that man pretend to be some kind of producer to lure Wen Yan out, while I... I just called Qiao Qinglang over. But that wasn't my doing, because my stepfather and my stepbrother Qiao Qinglang had already been eyeing Wen Yan for a while."
“My stepfather has always wanted his two sons to marry into your Shen family.”
"Ha!" Upon hearing Qiao Kexin utter the word 'arranged marriage,' Shen Jingchuan immediately thought of Wen Yan's comment that Qiao Kexin wanted him to pretend to be her boyfriend. There was one thing he just had to say.
"How despicable! You think you're worthy?! Disgusting!"
"Yes, they are not worthy! In front of your Shen family, the Qiao family is nothing! They knew from the beginning that they were not worthy, so they never dared to covet Shen family's biological daughter, Shen Zhirou."
"They've wanted me to matchmake Qiao Qinglang and Wen Yan for a long time, but at that time Wen Yan wasn't willing to be friends with Qiao Qinglang at all. They never gave up and kept trying to get me to create opportunities for the two of them to meet."
"It's the same this time. Qiao Qinglang knows that I met Wen Yan at that banquet, so he forced me to find a way. I had no choice."
Shen Jingchuan chuckled softly, his gaze towards Qiao Kexin icy cold:
"So it's all your stepbrother's fault? You're quite the scapegoater, and your scheming is quite deep. Do you really think I can't see that you're trying to use the Shen family to get revenge on your stepfather's family, huh?"
"……!!!" Qiao Kexin was stunned for a moment after being exposed, then she suddenly sneered.
“You’re not easily fooled, you figured it out so quickly. But so what? They’ve always treated me badly, just because I’m not related to them by blood, just because I was born to my mother and ex-husband, so they look down on me and don’t treat me like one of their own! What’s wrong with me wanting to get revenge on them? It’s my own fault for not being able to do it myself. If I were, I wouldn’t need to ask you for help.”
Finally, Qiao Kexin's expression suddenly changed, and she pleaded with Shen Jingxiu:
"I've told you everything I know. Please let me go. If you like all my jewelry, I'll give it to you, just turn a blind eye and let me go."
Shen Jingchuan was speechless.
"What the hell! Do you think our Shen family needs a few pieces of trash like you? You can't escape, that Qiao guy, Qiao Qinglang will definitely expose you."
"Yes, he will definitely betray me. But it doesn't matter, just let me go. Please let me go, I still have time, I can leave. I swear on my life, I will never appear in front of you again for the rest of my life, I just beg you not to hand me over to the police!"
