Chapter 221 They are unkind, don't blame her for being unjust
Zhai Jin was surprised by his straightforwardness. With a hint of suspicion in his eyes, he asked tentatively, "Are you sure you want to discuss this deal with me? Once the cooperation begins, there's no room for withdrawal. You need to think it through."
"If you didn't really intend to take advantage of the situation, I wouldn't have told you the specific plan."
His attitude made her suspicious. Her mind, which was originally overwhelmed by jealousy, suddenly became clearer. It was as if she could see through his true thoughts through those dark eyes.
She was not a naive fool who told him her entire plan without reservation.
If he and Xu Xian were in cahoots, and they informed on her, she would be in big trouble.
Sheng Anyang smiled sarcastically, "Miss Zhai, you don't even have any sincerity. How can I say that there are only benefits and no harm in negotiating this business with you?"
"Since you don't want to reveal your cards, let's not discuss this deal."
As he spoke, the man walked past her with an indifferent look on his face.
Businessmen value profit, and it is instinctive for them to assess risks when doing business. Without even the most basic sincerity on the surface, no one will act rashly.
Zhai Jin quickly pulled his arm free, speaking in a slightly hurried tone, gritting his teeth and saying, "Okay, I'll tell you."
"My plan is very simple. Vice President Sheng is Xu Xian's ex-boyfriend and has a partnership with Jiang Corporation. I don't think she will refuse your invitation to a farewell dinner when you return to Germany."
"I can provide you with medicine, and she will be yours after dinner."
She had no way forward and could only seek help from all sorts of sources, not caring whether Sheng Anyang was willing to cooperate sincerely.
Originally, she had her sights set on Chen Hao, but he was ultimately afraid that the Jiang family would retaliate later, so he had the intention but not the courage to do so.
The appearance of Sheng Anyang provided her with a turning point.
Not to mention that the Sheng family and the Jiang family are evenly matched in strength. If they clash head-on, both sides will suffer losses, and the Jiang family will not do business at a loss.
Furthermore, the Sheng family’s power is in Germany, and the emperor is far away, so Liang Jiang Shibai can’t reach out that far.
As for whether Xu Xian would hate Sheng Anyang, that was not within her consideration.
Sheng Anyang shook her hand off and chuckled lightly, his laughter revealing a hint of subtle sarcasm. "Miss Zhai's methods are not very clever, and can even be called clumsy. You are taking advantage of the Sheng family by attacking, and you are taking advantage of it. You are taking me for a fool, aren't you?"
The plan she mentioned was completely aimed at being carried out in a desperate situation, without considering the consequences.
Does she think he has a mental problem and agrees to use the Sheng family as cannon fodder?
Zhai Jin's eyes flashed with determination, and his tone was light, "Don't worry, I will drug you as well. I am the mastermind behind this, and you will not be traced back to me. You are also a victim. Do you understand?"
She never thought of letting the Sheng family take responsibility. After all, no one is an idiot.
It doesn’t matter whether the means are sophisticated or not, what matters most is that they are valuable.
Sheng Anyang had never looked at her straight in the eye from beginning to end, but after hearing what she said, he looked at her carefully.
Doesn't she want to live anymore?
Once the plan is implemented, she will bet on the Zhai and Lin families. With Jiang Shibai's influence in Hai City, killing these two families will be as easy as crushing a giant ant. It is only a matter of time.
Zhai Jin raised his chin and smiled unrestrainedly, "What do you think, Vice President Sheng?"
"Do you like Jiang Shibai?" Sheng Anyang didn't reply to her and changed the subject casually.
The topic changed so quickly that Zhai Jin was stunned for two seconds. He then said without hesitation, "Let's be frank. I do like him. This doesn't conflict with you getting Xu Xian. Isn't it good for us to each achieve our own goals?"
"As long as they get divorced, you can take advantage of the situation and not be held responsible because you are innocent in this whole scheme."
The woman's voice was very soft, as if she was trying to bewitch him and shake his firm belief.
When their eyes met, the jealousy and hatred in her eyes were frightening.
After a long silence, Sheng Anyang slowly said, "Should I laugh at you for being naive? Or for being brainless?"
"If I use this method to get Xu Xian, she will only alienate me and completely disappear from the world where I am. Even if you take the responsibility, I will be implicated. Do you think Jiang Shibai is a kind man? Will he let me go?"
"It's a huge price to pay for a good night's sleep. I'm a businessman who doesn't work without profit. Do you think I would do that?"
Zhai Jin obviously overestimated his feelings for Xu Xian. Liking someone is one thing, but being rational is another.
His obsession was not so deep that he would make a joke of his huge family fortune.
I really don't know why she became so obsessed and kept staring at Jiang Shibai.
Love indeed blinds the eyes of the ignorant.
Zhai Jin's breathing quickened for a moment. She understood the implication of his words, which was that his business was losing money.
She had misjudged how much Sheng Anyang liked Xu Xian.
I thought they were the same kind of people who would do anything to achieve their goals.
Sheng Anyang glanced at her with contempt, "I'm an upright person. This is the first time I've seen someone instigating someone else to be a mistress. Is Miss Zhai's upbringing so...frivolous?"
He automatically ignored his behavior in Germany when he wanted to be Xu Xian's lover.
"You——" Zhai Jin's face turned alternately blue and red.
"What do you mean by 'I'? Miss Zhai is not a kind person, so I naturally won't go along with her. I advise Miss Zhai to save her trouble and turn back." Sheng Anyang said lightly.
After he finished speaking, he left without any hesitation.
Zhai Jin looked at his disappearing back, his nails digging into the flesh of his palms, but he didn't feel any pain at all.
It's never too late to turn back?
Behind her was not a safe area at all, but a bottomless cliff.
Two days ago, the young model that Chen Hao kept outside became pregnant. She came to the door with her big belly, shouting that the Chen family should be responsible, trying to use the emperor to control the princes.
The Chen family was accustomed to women who wanted to get ahead by taking advantage of pregnancy, so they used threats and inducements to give the young model some money to abort the child.
When she heard about this, the Chen family did not respond. They simply calculated that the Zhai family needed to rely on the Chen family's power, and since no one supported them, they would not come to them to accuse them for such a small matter, so they acted without fear.
She has been surrounded by illegitimate children since she was a child, and has had enough of living a hypocritical life in front of others. Since they are unkind, don't blame her for being unjust.
All her tolerance and compromise were met with intensified exploitation and oppression from her family and outsiders. No one loved her, and even her parents only used her as a tool for marriage.
She wanted to drag the Zhai and Chen families down to hell together, but unfortunately the coward Chen Hao didn't fall for it, so she found another way to find Sheng Anyang.
As for why she didn't just find a random man to force herself on Xu Xian, it was naturally because she wanted to witness with her own eyes her happiness crumbling under the man she once loved.
If she doesn't live a happy life, then they can't expect to be happy.
Suddenly, Zhai Jin caught a glimpse of a figure in his peripheral vision.
Not far from the fish pond, Aunt Wan was taking a walk with Zhang Wan in a wheelchair, her smile peaceful and calm.
She remembered that the only blood relative Xu Xian cared about in the world was her mother!
