Chapter 57 "Today is my unlucky day." Jiang...
Jiang Miaomiao then took Xie Liang and the other three to the police station.
The testimony of Xie Liang, a major victim, is indispensable in suing Song Xiyan and others for illegally intruding into another company!
She's an expert at kicking someone when they're down.
...
Police station.
The middle-aged man in a sharp suit sitting next to Xi Shouge was even more conspicuous than Song Xiyan and the others sitting opposite Xi Shouge.
It's obvious that it will be Lawyer Sun, hired by the Song family.
Jiang Miaomiao walked in thoughtfully.
Xi Shouge called out from afar, "Boss!"
As she stood up to call for help, the middle-aged man also glanced over instinctively, his expression suddenly changing.
Seeing is believing. He had just been arrogant and condescending towards Xi Shouge, a young and promising lawyer, but now he was stunned by the murderous aura emanating from Jiang Miaomiao's every move.
Sun Liming keenly recognized Jiang Miaomiao as the kind of "poisonous woman" who was absolutely not to be trifled with, should be avoided at all costs, and should be avoided at all costs!
Xi Shouge gave a brief introduction for both parties, her tone tinged with reproach: "Attorney Sun, representing the Song family, requests a settlement." Clearly, she had just been bullied.
Jiang Miaomiao smiled knowingly: It's okay, I'll make it up to you.
Sun Liming stood up and looked at Jiang Miaomiao, Xie Liang, and the others. He reached his right hand past Xie Liang, the injured man, and towards Jiang Miaomiao: "Miss Jiang, name your terms. We just want a reconciliation."
Jiang Miaomiao hesitated to reach out, and replied with her arms crossed, "Attorney Sun, regardless of the conditions, we do not want to settle."
Sun Liming remained polite and courteous: "Miss Jiang, please consider the consequences, even if you don't respect the monk." If they don't reconcile, they'll be enemies forever.
Jiang Miaomiao smiled enigmatically: "Song Xiyan made things difficult for me earlier, she didn't give me any face. The Song family members didn't stop her either. Everything is about reciprocity, so why should I give anyone face today?"
“The Jiang family,” Jiang Miaomiao interrupted coldly. “Attorney Sun, I don’t know if Song Xiyan will be able to fully represent the Song family and the Song Group in the future, but I am now representing the Jiang family and the Da Jiang Group. If your Song family’s mascot can bark and ravage in front of me for no reason and use all sorts of despicable means, what else can I do but make an example of her?”
Sun Liming was taken aback by her overly direct words, as she faced his smiling face with its chilling gaze.
Jiang Miaomiao suddenly said, "By the way, Attorney Sun, did you investigate me before you came?"
Sun Liming nodded.
"Then you should know that I would even harm my own father and brother, let alone your Song family's mascot?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Song Xiyan on the other end retorted, not to be outdone: "Does your Jiang family deserve to be compared with my Song family? Even if I am a mascot, a phoenix tail is still more noble than a chicken head!" She really never misses an opportunity to flaunt her family's status.
Little did she know that in front of everyone, her appearance, compared to the dignified Jiang Miaomiao, made her look quite ridiculous.
Sun Liming's lips twitched in embarrassment.
Jiang Miaomiao laughed unrestrainedly, "We can't compare now, but what about in the future? I'm determined to fight the Song family to the death!"
“Miss Jiang, you’re being too serious,” Sun Liming quickly said. “I understand what you mean. Please excuse me for a moment, I will give you an answer later.” After all, he wasn’t a member of the Song family, and he couldn’t be sure how much risk the Song family was willing to take with Song Xiyan, this troublemaker.
Jiang Miaomiao nodded.
Step aside to make way.
Tell him to go outside and make a phone call.
"You should all go and give your statements." She reminded Xie Liang and the three employees to quickly participate in police-community cooperation, then sat down opposite Song Xiyan, tapping the desk with her right hand again and again, glancing at Song Xiyan with a deep look.
A blatant provocation.
If Song Xiyan dared to utter a single curse word, she would have Xi Shouge write it down and subsequently file a lawsuit against Song Xiyan for insulting others.
Song Xiyan: "..." The resentment was stuck in her heart and she couldn't say it.
Sun Liming returned quickly, seemingly unconcerned that Jiang Miaomiao had taken his place. He stood to the side and whispered to her, "Miss Jiang, Mr. Song said that she is, after all, a member of the Song family. If she loses too much face, she doesn't care, but the Song family is a respectable family and cares. So please make sure to be amicable and make money!"
Jiang Miaomiao's fingers, which were tapping the table, suddenly stopped.
This means she heard it.
Sun Liming immediately realized he had a chance, and forced a hint of flattery in his tone: "Miss Jiang, would you do me a favor?"
Xi Shouge, who had just been put on airs by Sun Liming using his seniority, was immediately filled with resentment.
Jiang Miaomiao asked him with a smile, "If Song Xiyan picks on me again next time..."
Sun Liming said confidently, "The Song family guarantees they won't."
Song Xiyan shouted again, "Jiang Miaomiao, you've never seen money in your eight lifetimes, you're greedy for money..."
Jiang Miaomiao interrupted her in a deep voice: "Attorney Sun, is it unreasonable for me to ask for another 10%?"
Song Xiyan: "Jiang Miao..."
Jiang Miaomiao held up two fingers: "20%."
Sun Liming quickly scolded Song Xiyan: "Please shut up."
"Sun Liming, you're just a lawyer hired by our family, how dare you embarrass me?" Song Xiyan was stunned and muttered in disbelief.
Sun Liming simply handed the phone, which was still connected, to Song Xiyan.
Song Xiyan was still angry and didn't want to answer, but a powerful male voice came from the microphone: "Song Xiyan, how long do you want to embarrass yourself? Do whatever Attorney Sun tells you to do, get back here right now, and get out of Hong Kong starting tomorrow!"
This is Song Lao Si, the current head of the Song Group. He is a big shot of the same generation as Song Er Lao, who almost married Jiang Miaomiao, and Song Xiyan's grandfather, Song San Lao.
The next moment, everyone saw Song Xiyan, who was usually fearless, tremble all over and obediently answer the phone like a quail. She replied with "okay" several times before returning the phone. This time, she was truly angry but dared not speak out.
Sun Liming immediately transferred some money to Jiang Miaomiao.
The "ding" notification of the payment made Mo Congyun, who was in charge of receiving the money, pause for a moment.
He blinked and even held up his index finger to count, which made Nishigami Kato curiously lean closer.
Two heads were focused on the phone screen, counting one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, and then an eight-digit number: "Eighty million!"
"So generous?" Jiang Miaomiao finally felt embarrassed and took the initiative to give Sun Liming a belated handshake. "Indeed, harmony brings wealth."
Seeing such a mercenary change of heart, Sun Liming really wanted to take the opportunity to give her an arrogant glare, but Jiang Miaomiao added, "Welcome to transfer money again next time."
He chuckled and decisively withdrew his hand: "There won't be a next time."
“But Miss Song has been getting very close to He Peixue, whom my brother used to patronize, recently. I think it won’t be long before it happens again.”
Sun Liming's expression instantly hardened: "With Old Song watching over her, she won't be able to get close to him in the future."
Jiang Miaomiao chuckled: "That's hard to say. Just to be on the safe side, why don't you clean it up yourself?"
Sun Liming's expression finally changed.
...He Peixue's plan to marry into the Jiang family through her child caused quite a stir. Before he came, he had investigated Jiang Miaomiao and naturally knew about these things.
Jiang Miaomiao is now handling everything for the Jiang family, including her public rejection of He Peixue and her unborn child. So Jiang Miaomiao's words "clean things up" are quite intriguing. Is she implying that the Song family should take responsibility for dealing with He Peixue?
Sun Liming was certain that Jiang Miaomiao was not a good person and that they should not get too close to her, so he quickly took Song Xiyan and left.
The mediation between the two parties was successful, and the squad leader who responded to the call saw them off with a smile.
After all, both the Song and Jiang families are major taxpayers in Hong Kong. If things really escalate and they are forced to choose between the two families—one being deeply entrenched old money and the other being emerging new money—it's a difficult choice no matter what!
The whole family got into the nanny van one after another.
Faced with the 80 million yuan that had just been handed to her, Jiang Miaomiao sighed deeply, "This kind of quick money is too tempting, it's easy for me to neglect my proper work."
That's it?
Xi Shouge and the others had originally hoped to hear some profound truths about life, but after waiting for a long time, all they got was this sentence.
Mo Congyun, who was once again acting as "Tchaikovsky's" driver, said with a mixture of disgust and anticipation: "You can give me the money to spend, and pretend that the money never came."
"I suggest you just daydream more about things that defy reality," Jiang Miaomiao replied, then told Xie Liang to collect the money and immediately transferred 40 million to him as payment for the self-inflicted injury.
As for employees injured for personal reasons, she will have to pay double the medical expenses and lost wages.
Xie Liang's resolve to cling to the goddess's coattails only strengthened in that instant!
Mo Congyun escorted Xie Liang and the others back to the company, then turned around and headed towards the headquarters of Dajiang Group.
...
...
It's a ten-minute walk.
Jiang Miaomiao's eyelids were slightly closed as she listened to Xi Shouge muttering, "He Peixue wants to use her son to climb the social ladder, and Han Cuo's retaliatory bet and obstruction of our inland project application mean that Jiang Si needs to clear away these obstacles to take over..."
The driver in the front seat, Mo Congyun, added from time to time: "Every single one of them is a major headache."
Jiang Miaomiao lifted her eyelids: "It can't be that bad, can it?"
Xi Shouge: "We don't have much time left, let's deal with Han Cuo first."
Jiang Miaomiao sneered: "That's not necessary."
Nishimori asked doubtfully, "Why?"
Jiang Miaomiao: "Because I have already combined the cases for processing."
"Huh?" Nishimori was taken aback. "How do we combine them?"
Jiang Miaomiao shrugged: "Guess?"
She wouldn't mind adding a friendly reminder: "Dominoes."
Xi Shouge quickly pondered: all these events are independent and unrelated, but the root cause lies with Jiang Miaomiao alone! If it's a domino effect, and Jiang Miaomiao wants to topple them all at once, then she has to connect these events. So, "How do I connect them?"
That's very difficult.
Jiang Miaomiao smiled without saying a word.
After a long pause, he replied: "But I've already finished stringing them."
...
At the entrance of Dajiang Group.
After parking the car, Jiang Miaomiao got out casually and lazily, as if strolling through her own garden, while Xi Shouge and Mo Congyun followed closely behind, their faces solemn. The two were still racking their brains: How exactly did she string the threads together? And when did she finish stringing them together?
The three walked into the company, passed the reception desk, and across the decorative fountain in the center of the hall, someone suddenly called out from the other side: "Miaomiao".
Jiang Miaomiao frowned slightly: She almost forgot the hint Jiang Si had given her earlier: "New clothes are worse than old ones, and old friends are worse than new ones."
She reminded Nishimune, "I need to combine another case to process one more person."
As Xi Shouge was deep in thought with his brows furrowed, his frown deepened.
Jiang Miaomiao turned her head to look at the tall, white-clad figure walking towards her.
It's been half a year, hasn't it?
Time flies so fast, it feels like a lifetime has passed.
But the once gentle and handsome young man from a scholarly family now bears the marks of time, his youthful spirit gone, his eyes now slightly gloomy from the many things he has kept hidden.
She crossed her arms and looked at Sui Yupeng, a smile playing on her lips.
Xi Shouge and Mo Congyun exchanged a glance, then instantly straightened their backs and took a half-step back, causing the three of them to stand in a triangle, deliberately highlighting Jiang Miaomiao's sharp posture as the superior.
Sui Yupeng was indeed taken aback when he approached, forgetting his anger and feeling only inexplicable shock.
He had just arrived in the port city and had seen Jiang Miaomiao's aloof demeanor in interviews, always dressed in a white suit with her black hair piled high. Knowing that he was coming to see her today, he subconsciously chose a white suit for himself as well.
The meaning behind it is self-evident.
But Sui Yupeng realized at this moment that he had misjudged the situation. Neither the Jiang Miaomiao in the bunny hoodie nor the Jiang Miaomiao in the smart suit in the TV interview could compare to the real Jiang Miaomiao standing face to face with him now. She was just standing there casually, yet she gave him an immense sense of pressure.
Sui Yupeng's gaze towards her grew increasingly complex: "Miaomiao, it's been a long time."
"Indeed, it's been half a year since we last met," Jiang Miaomiao said casually, "...Why is Mr. Sui here?"
Sui Yupeng replied, "The Sui family is optimistic about the inland market, and Hong Kong is the first choice for pilot cities, so I came here in person to take a look. Today I passed by Dajiang Group, and since we've met before, I decided to take a gamble and see if you were there. I didn't expect to win the gamble; it seems I'm quite lucky today."
"I'm having a run of bad luck today," Jiang Miaomiao said, launching a stab attack right off the bat.
Sui Yupeng choked up: "..."
He said reluctantly, "Miaomiao, I'm really sorry for what happened back then."
Jiang Miaomiao declined, saying, "Actually, I'm the one who should apologize. I was indeed young and naive before, and I didn't think things through before I acted."
The unprecedented apology, filled with genuine sincerity, surprised Sui Yupeng and also caught Xi Shouge and Mo Congyun off guard.
Jiang Miaomiao expressed her heartfelt regret: "You invited me to your wedding, disregarding past grievances. I kindly brought 17 of the bride's exes along to the banquet, hoping to boost your popularity. Unexpectedly, with so many people gossiping, the truth about your infidelity was exposed. I left early, so I don't know how things went after your wedding. I didn't give you my blessings then, so I'm making it up to you now. You two are a perfect match. I wish you and Hao Luwei a long and happy life together, growing old together and never being separated."
Sui Yupeng's fair and jade-like face instantly turned green.
