To protect Kunkun, Lin Tao did not admit that he had instructed Xu Jie to kidnap the twins. Instead, he said that Xu Jie knew his identity and used this information to kidnap the twins to extort money from Jiang Ning.
But when the truth came out, the twins were rescued, and Xu Jie threatened him again, demanding money and offering to take him to Guangzhou for refuge.
Lin Tao felt he was a threat and suddenly committed a crime of passion on the way to his destination.
As for whether Kun Kun was aware of the kidnapping, he insisted that Kun Kun was unaware and was deceived by Xu Jie.
He hid in Ma Huijuan's house and only managed to get Kunkun to bring him food by threatening him.
The police also knew that Kun Kun was a minor, and they couldn't do anything to him, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Moreover, his situation did not affect their judgment of Lin Tao in the slightest.
Because of the complexity of his case, Lin Tao's trial lasted a long time, and he was finally sentenced to death two years later.
But that's a story for another time.
Even before he was sentenced to death, his million-dollar fortune became the object of contention among Ma Huijuan, Duomei, and Jiang Rou.
Later, this inheritance even alarmed Yu Xiaofeng from his hometown.
The four parties engaged in a protracted battle for the property for two years.
After Xu Jie's case was settled, the house he left behind became the object of contention between Xue Mei and Lucy.
Xue Mei felt that since Xu Jie had bought the house with her money, it should rightfully belong to her.
Lucy, on the other hand, applied to change the name on the house, arguing that she was Xu Jie's nominal wife and had the right to inherit the estate.
In addition to grieving the loss of her son, Xu's mother also had to watch Xu Mei and Lucy fight every day.
Lucy, being a native, had connections in her family and had received guidance from a wise person. She pulled Xu's mother into the house and secretly told her that she was pregnant with Xu Jie's child.
Mrs. Xu was naturally delighted, and the two of them conspired to change the house's name to Lucy's.
After Lucy got the house, she kicked Xue Mei and Xu's mother out.
Only then did Xu's mother realize that she had been tricked.
Xue Mei grabbed Xu's mother and demanded, "Why are you doing this to me? The house was bought with my money."
Mother Xu cried in despair, "Xue Mei, accept this reality. Lucy said she's pregnant with Xu Jie's child. That's Xu Jie's only child. At least our Xu family line can continue!"
Xue Mei was furious. She felt a sharp pain in her stomach. Xu's mother was such a fool; she believed Lucy after she got pregnant. She couldn't help but roar.
"Xu Jie hasn't touched her for months, how could she be pregnant? Besides, I saw menstrual blood on her underwear yesterday. You..."
Her voice gradually faded, and finally she fainted.
Xu's mother had no choice but to take her to the hospital.
After the doctor examined her, he told her that she was pregnant, more than two months along, and that she should rest more recently, otherwise she could easily miscarry.
Xu's mother was extremely surprised. She never expected that the person who was actually pregnant with Xu Jie's child was Xue Mei.
As Xu's mother helped Xue Mei out of the hospital, they happened to brush past Yang Lu, who was having a check-up while heavily pregnant.
Yang Lu entered the consultation room, while Gao Baoliang sat on a bench outside, looking nervous.
Having experienced threatened miscarriage, they are terrified every time they come for a checkup.
Fortunately, Yang Lu came out with a smile on her face.
"The doctor said you're very healthy, get the money ready!"
Gao Baoliang put his arm around her and grinned. He had already prepared the fine for applying for a second-child birth permit.
Because she paid the fine, the birth control office didn't give Yang Lu any trouble. They even told her to take good care of herself during her pregnancy and try to have a daughter so she could have both a son and a daughter.
When the two returned home, their families were all there. Since Jiang Ning had been completely cleared of suspicion, everyone gathered together to hold a celebration.
In just one month, Fuqiang Group's business not only returned to normal, but this event was even more effective than advertising, with many business owners approaching Jiang Ning to discuss cooperation.
Many of them come from other provinces specifically because of its reputation.
Jiang Ning delegated project negotiations to Luo Guangming, as he was more adept at these business matters.
Xinchen Trading has also regained its vitality. The first batch of 1,000 computers will arrive at the dock in two days. The department store manager has been coming to the company every day these days, fearing that Jiang Ning will hand over the business to other department stores.
A month ago, they weren't like this at all. They were afraid that Jiang Ning would pester them, so they wouldn't answer the phone and would say they were on a business trip whenever they met. Their attitude changed so fast that it was almost as fast as turning the pages of a book.
Jiang Ning didn't show up herself, leaving Wang Meizhu to handle things. She neither said she would definitely give them the computers to sell, nor did she say she wouldn't. She just stalled. The whole capital knew that she had a batch of imported computers arriving soon, and countless people had already called to place orders.
When the dinner started and these topics came up, everyone smiled knowingly.
Although he encountered various difficulties in doing business, Jiang Ning always managed to turn danger into safety and ultimately push the company towards greater strength.
Everyone was celebrating the company's booming growth, but only she knew the truth.
What truly pleased her was that Lin Tao, this devil, had finally been brought to justice.
Jiang Rou still has more than ten years to spend in prison. By the time she comes out, she will probably be an old, frail body and no longer a threat.
Lin Tao will pay the price for his actions; he will face the death penalty.
In her past life, she could only take revenge through illegal means. This time, she not only avoided getting herself into legal trouble, but also gave her career a boost.
She felt more relaxed than ever before.
She was so happy today that she drank Moutai for the first time ever. Her already fair and delicate face turned into a ripe red apple under the influence of alcohol.
On such a joyous occasion, Yang Xiu also came to show his support, bringing champagne.
He told Jiang Ning that the computers could arrive at the dock ahead of schedule tomorrow, and if this batch of goods sold well, the next batch would be shipped out soon.
They didn't mention the prepayment issue anymore.
During this time, he gained a direct understanding of Jiang Ning's abilities and trusted her even more.
Yang Lu, heavily pregnant, was also happy and wanted to drink some champagne, but her older brother yelled at her to stop.
"What's wrong with you right now? Why are you still drinking?"
Yang Lu said, feeling wronged, "Champagne isn't really a bar, a little bit won't hurt..."
Gao Baoliang and Yang Xiu stopped her at the same time, "No!"
Her pouty, aggrieved expression made everyone burst into laughter.
Just as they were happily eating, Wu Hao brought a legal document to Jiang Ning for her signature.
Jiang Ning came out of the house, led Wu Hao to the locust tree in the yard, and gestured for him to sit down.
She leaned against the edge of the table, flipping through the documents, calm and focused.
Wu Hao looked at her fair face, which was flushed, and her eyes and brows were more charming than usual. She was wearing loose home clothes, but they could not hide her curvaceous and proud figure.
After watching for only a few more seconds, he couldn't help but swallow hard, his Adam's apple bobbing.
Just as he was looking extremely uncomfortable, explosive news came over the living room television.
A sudden fire broke out in Jixiang Residential Complex, forcing long-time residents who had refused to leave to seek refuge...
