Chapter 267 Dignity and Fairness
Jiang Zhiyue paused, recalling what happened at the cocktail party that day.
No one expected to meet Sheng Huaian again.
As an invited guest, Sheng Huaian was not interested in anything at the party. He joked that since he was not the heir of the Sheng family, he had limited information in his hands and had no bargaining chips worth exchanging.
He wanted to be alone and quiet, so he stayed away from her, but he didn't expect to meet her.
Sheng Huaian knew she was looking for a small way to leave, and watched her in secret for a long time. He couldn't help but laugh and said, "I can't just watch you crawl through a dog hole. It would be so pitiful if people told others about it."
Jiang Zhiyue felt even more embarrassed because of his words.
Sheng Huaian jokes that he is not the successor of the Sheng family, but his keen insight is comparable to that of others, and he is even more "taciturn" than the taciturn Qin Si.
Sheng Huaian sees through things but doesn't point them out. His cynical face always makes it difficult to figure out what he's thinking.
Jiang Zhiyue felt that when she met Chu Junyue in the restaurant that day, Sheng Huaian had already noticed something, and he naturally knew what she was avoiding at the cocktail party tonight.
Sheng Huaian led her away along another path. It was unclear whether the "hush money" he mentioned referred to her embarrassing plan to crawl through a dog hole, or Lin Xianer's post on LINS.
He took the initiative to add her as a friend.
The style of his social media homepage is not like the rules and etiquette that a young man from a noble family should have. Instead, it is filled with photos of him drinking, smoking, and racing. He has all the standard features of a playboy. His private life is overly extravagant, so the public both loves and hates him.
In contrast, Sheng Huaian has been an excellent student since childhood, so much so that people have speculated that he achieved his results with the help of his family influence.
Jiang Zhiyue clicked on the address he sent her, which was a high-end hospital.
The little boy who was rescued at Xilin Temple that day has been receiving treatment during this period.
Sheng Huaian invited her to visit together.
Jiang Zhiyue searched for news about Xilin Temple and entered several keywords: [insurance], [Lin family], [Mr. Li]... Sure enough, all this information was harmonized.
She opened LINS and checked, but the photos from that day were gone.
On the flashing screen, there was a particularly eye-catching piece of news about the Bai family.
A report pointed out that the legal profession in Brandenberg today has become a family hereditary system, with the most eye-catching figures being Bai's father, who is the chief prosecutor, and his mother, who was promoted last month.
Bai Mu jumped two levels from a senior judge to become the President of the Supreme Court, or Chief Justice, with a term of six years. He is nominated by the House of Representatives and appointed by the President.
According to Brandenberg law, although the Chief Justice is appointed by the President, he has the power to impeach the President.
The Bai family can indeed be said to be in great glory.
Jiang Zhiyue noticed this news because of the video playing on the interface. In the video, Bai's mother, dressed in a professional suit, stood under the glorious totem of the court. She raised her hand and made a solemn declaration to the reporters.
"I will defend the dignity and fairness of the law with my life."
The woman's expression was righteous and full of passion, and her dedication to justice and her firm tone were extremely powerful.
The entire scene seemed to be announcing the glory and mission of the Bai family to the world, and the comments were all praise. Even though this news was intended to accuse the Bai family, the public did not buy it.
Amid the overwhelming positive reviews, Jiang Zhiyue quickly glanced over and saw a bold, bright red message: "A life for a life, a blood debt for a blood debt!"
She frowned and swiped her mouse to scroll over, but the comment disappeared.
......
Hospital.
Jiang Zhiyue took time out of her morning on Friday. Although she was a little surprised that Sheng Huaian was so kind to visit the little boy, since Sheng Huaian was willing to do good deeds, the little boy's family could also benefit from it.
She and Sheng Huaian had an appointment at nine o'clock. As expected, the man did not show up on time. She told the security guard at the gate her purpose. The security guard stared at her for a few seconds, his expression changed slightly, and then let her in.
The inpatient building is located in a picturesque garden, surrounded by mountains and water, with pleasant scenery. In addition, it is equipped with a golf course. Gardeners and service staff can be seen everywhere. The atmosphere is luxurious. If you don’t know, you might think you have accidentally entered a resort.
Xiao Jingrun arranged for the person to stay here and covered the subsequent treatment costs.
However, no one knew the inside story, and the parties involved were kept in the dark, and attributed all the credit to Jiang Zhiyue.
Jiang Zhiyue kept denying it, but the person involved became more and more convinced and thanked Sheng Huaian as well.
Xiao Jingrun had a special identity, so Jiang Zhiyue was not in a position to reveal his identity rashly. Her meeting with Xiao Jingrun came to an end after they parted at Xilin Temple.
Xiao Jingrun is very busy.
In last week's national speech, he said that in the face of the emergency situation of riots in the three major states, in order to maintain stability and normalize the states, the Chu family should immediately send people to govern and negotiate with local representatives.
However, the Chu family did not respond. According to public financial statements, the Chu family's profits in the three major states not only did not decrease, but increased by five percentage points.
The family's internal financial statements are the privacy of the Chu family. If they were directly and fully disclosed, one can imagine what a sensation it would cause.
Jiang Zhiyue's phone kept vibrating as people in the chat room were having a heated discussion.
[Oh my god, the Chu family's financial situation has been made public. Who did this? ]
[If I'm not mistaken, it must be our heroic and brave president! The president was cultivated by Mr. Xiao and is the most powerful and handsome man among the six major families! ]
[Wow, the people above stop talking nonsense and framing the president. The struggle between the major families is fierce. Until the last moment, it is hard to say who will take over the major families in the future. Don't talk nonsense without evidence! ]
[So, what will our future be like? Their decisions will determine the fate of all of us. What will our future be like? Aren’t you curious? ]
future?
dominate?
destiny?
Someone posted a photo of Xiao Jingrun. He had a gentle and elegant face, but when he spoke in front of the camera, he had an aggressive look and suppressed the whole audience.
The chosen high-ranking official Wen is an ambitious man.
Jiang Zhiyue looked at the time. Five minutes had passed and Sheng Huaian had not shown up yet. She simply took the gift and went upstairs first.
Destiny, future?
These words emerged in her mind again, and Jiang Zhiyue thought of Jiang Wanrou's fate. In the original plot, she did not escape the kidnapping case. What would happen to Jiang Wanrou after her death?
Jiang Zhiyue stepped onto the stairs, and at that moment, she was pulled backwards by a huge force, and the gift box in her hand fell to the ground with a snap.
Jiang Zhiyue felt suffocated and covered her neck tightly with both hands, but it seemed as if a hard rope was tightly wrapped around her neck, with such force that it seemed to cut her trachea.
