Chapter 26 Being splashed with paint

Although Wen Yue did not go to the press conference of Feng Wenfang and Chen Jiajun, she watched the whole thing through the system broadcast.

In fact, the two did not reveal much explosive news at the press conference. Their purpose was to make money, so of course they could not really say that the Zheng family was evil and there was no room for reversal.

The press conference lasted for 45 minutes, and at least half an hour the two were crying, and then they said vaguely that it was not easy to be a daughter-in-law of a wealthy family, and that the life of a daughter-in-law of the Zheng family was particularly difficult.

The two also cited some examples, such as Chen Jiajun saying that Zheng Yanhai was fickle and had so many lovers outside that he could not count them, and Feng Wenfang brought up the past, saying that she was beaten by Zheng Yanze, and revealed that her mother-in-law also hit her. It's

just that these contents seem to be full of information, but in fact they are old wine in new bottles.

Zheng Yanhai is a well-known playboy in Hong Kong. He has been out flirting with other women even after getting married. The reporters knew this a long time ago. In fact, among those who attended the press conference that day, Zheng Yanhai was photographed kissing a female star on the street.

As for Chen Jiajun being beaten by Zheng Yanze, it had happened before, and she even went to get a medical examination and sued. It was new that Mrs. Zheng hit her, and she had never mentioned it before.

In short, after the press conference, the reporters were quite disappointed.

These revelations are totally different from what they imagined. Not to mention the two big news of brothers cheating on each other, it is far inferior to the previous beating of Zheng Yanze by Feng Wenfang and bodyguards.

Mrs. Zheng, who was still in the hospital at this time, was very angry after learning the content of the press conference. She felt that she had made a mistake.

Although she was not very satisfied with her two daughters-in-law in the past, she did not hate them either. She also thought that she was good to them and never tortured them. At most, she often told them that women should regard their husbands as the heaven.

As a result, these two people were both promiscuous. They almost turned her two sons against each other, and they even lied with their eyes open, saying that they suffered in the Zheng family.

Mrs. Cheng said at the time that she would also hold a press conference and severely accuse them in front of all the reporters in Hong Kong.

But just as she finished speaking, Cheng Hing-kuo, who heard the noise, came out of the ward in a wheelchair pushed by a nurse and asked sullenly, "What do you want to do?"

"To hold a press conference."

Zheng Xingguo asked three times in a row: "Why are you holding a press conference? To cry about how unlucky you are to marry two daughters-in-law like this? Or to curse them?"

Mrs. Zheng did think so, but with her husband's expression of "Are you stupid?", she reluctantly swallowed the words on her lips and changed her words to say: "Are we just going to let them slander our family outside?"

Zheng Xingguo didn't know the details yet, so he asked: "What did they say at the press conference?"

Mrs. Zheng wanted to tell Zheng Xingguo the situation with exaggeration, but she thought that he had just finished surgery and couldn't stand the stimulation, so she was a little afraid to speak.

Zheng Xingguo didn't think it was a big deal. He had survived the messes done by his two sons, so could he not stand a few slanders from others?

She asked Zheng Yanhai to recount the situation at the press conference and reminded him: "Just tell the truth, don't exaggerate."

Zheng Yanhai hesitated a little, looked at his mother, and then looked at his mother again. In the end, he chose to obey and described as objectively as possible what Feng Wenfang and Chen Jiajun said and did at the press conference.

Listening to her son's narration, Mrs. Zheng was very dissatisfied and wanted to interrupt several times, but she held back for the sake of her husband's health.

Zheng Xingguo was relatively calm after listening. For him now, nothing mattered.

After understanding the situation, Zheng Xingguo did not rush to say how to refute the rumors, but only asked Mrs. Zheng to call Zheng Yanze to the hospital.

Zheng Yanze is not like Zheng Yanhai. The latter is a playboy who is usually very idle, so he can stay in the hospital when Zheng Xingguo has surgery.

Zheng Yanze is the president of Zheng Group and is busy with official duties. Even if Zheng Xingguo is in trouble, he only stayed in the hospital for two days and went back to work yesterday.

However, after receiving a call from his mother, Zheng Yanze came very quickly. At that time,

Zheng Xingguo was already lying on the hospital bed. After he entered the room, he sat on the sofa next to the window with Zheng Yanhai, but the two were very far away.

Noticing this, Zheng Xingguo's eyes darkened.

Because he has no other women, the environment of the Zheng family is relatively simple compared to most of the wealthy families in Hong Kong.

His two sons have completely different personalities. The eldest is diligent and suitable for managing the family business, while the second only knows how to play around and is suitable for taking the dividends and having a good time.

The two have no requirements for the distribution, so the relationship between the brothers has always been harmonious.

But no one expected that this harmony was only on the surface, and they had been sleeping with each other's women behind their backs. And when the matter was exposed, it would be difficult for their relationship to go back to the past.

Zheng Xingguo did not bother to persuade the two to reconcile, but asked directly: "Tell me, what do you think, divorce, or just live in this ambiguous way."

"Of course we want a divorce!" It was Mrs. Zheng who rushed to answer, she didn't want these two daughters-in-law anymore.

Zheng Xingguo didn't listen to her, and just said, "I want to listen to them."

Zheng Yanhai was the first to answer, "I want a divorce."

Although he and Chen Jiajun were in a free love relationship, his love came and went quickly, and he had no feelings for Chen Jiajun. If anyone really left a mark on his heart over the years, it would probably be Feng Wenfang. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been unable to help but get together with someone.

After hearing Zheng Yanhai's answer, Zheng Yanze no longer hesitated and said, "I also want a divorce."

"What about after the divorce? Yanhai, are you willing to marry your elder... Wenfang?" Zheng Xingguo originally wanted to say "your elder sister-in-law", but he felt that it was not appropriate as soon as he said it, so he changed it to her name and looked at Zheng Yanze and asked, "And you, are you willing to marry Jiajun?"

This time it was Zheng Yanze's turn to answer without hesitation: "I don't want to."

In fact, the fact that he got together with Chen Jiajun had a lot to do with Zheng Yanhai and Feng Wenfang's dating.

He only found out that his fiancée had dated his younger brother after he got engaged. At that time, he felt very uncomfortable and even thought about whether to cancel the engagement.

But at that time, the Feng family was a big client of the Zheng family, and the two families were equally matched. Feng Wenfang was also very beautiful. After canceling the engagement, he was not sure if he could find a better match.

So after asking the two separately and confirming that they had lost contact long ago, he decided to continue the engagement.

But people's thoughts change. Before the marriage, Zheng Yanze thought he didn't care, but after the marriage, every time he saw the two people greeting each other as if nothing had happened, he always felt uncomfortable in his heart.

This discomfort accumulated over time and formed a certain dark mind.

So when Chen Jiajun went back to the wrong room drunk, he knew it, but he acquiesced to what happened next.

Although Zheng Yanze's relationship with Chen Jiajun lasted for a long time, because of her special status, he felt particularly excited every time they went on a date, but the source of all these emotions had little to do with Chen Jiajun herself.

So Zheng Yanze knew very clearly that he had no feelings for Chen Jiajun.

It might be too arbitrary to say so. After all, they had slept together for almost two years. It's not right to say that there was no feeling at all, but it was definitely not to the extent of liking her.

After such a scandal, he didn't want to have anything to do with Chen Jiajun anymore. Only in this way could people forget the mistakes he had made as soon as possible.

Zheng Yanhai was a little hesitant. After all, Feng Wenfang was different from other women, and he still had feelings for her.

Mrs. Zheng saw her younger son's hesitation and couldn't help but remind him sharply: "Feng Wenfang was your sister-in-law!"

Zheng Yanhai suddenly came to his senses and looked up to meet his elder brother's gloomy eyes. He immediately pulled his lips uncomfortably and said with a dry smile: "Don't worry, I won't marry her."

Zheng Xingguo was quite satisfied with the brothers' answers. Although he gave them the opportunity to choose, he didn't want his two sons to have anything to do with any of the two former daughters-in-law.

Just like Zheng Yanze needed to end his relationship with Chen Jiajun so that people would forget about this as soon as possible, he also had such expectations in his heart, and said thoughtfully: "Since you are willing to divorce, it will be easy." But

Mrs. Zheng didn't think so, and muttered: "What's easy? Don't you see that those two bitches want to rely on Yanze and Yanhai?"

"If they wanted to rely on Yanze and them, they wouldn't have complained to the media at the development press conference," Zheng Xingguo thought differently, "They did this just to force us to give in as soon as possible so that we can get more money after the divorce."

"How can they have any property? These two people are more wasteful than each other. The dowry they brought with them when they got married has long been spent! Which of the current property they have during their marriage was not purchased with money from our family?" Mrs. Zheng shouted, "They slander us everywhere and still want to divide our property. I want them to leave the house with nothing!"

Zheng Xingguo sneered and asked, "If you want them to leave the house with nothing, then do you still want your reputation?"

Mrs. Zheng said unwillingly, "So I said we should also hold a press conference!"

"You still don't understand?" Zheng Xingguo raised his voice, "Why do you think they hold a press conference together? Because they know that only in this way can they win the trust of Hong Kong citizens! If one daughter-in-law says that your family is not good, it can be said that it is the daughter-in-law's problem. If two daughters-in-law say that your family is not good, who do you think people will believe more even if you go out to argue with others?"

Hearing the meaning in Zheng Xingguo's words Excited, Mrs. Zheng calmed down instantly and said to him, "Don't be angry, husband. I'll listen to you."

Seeing his wife's voice soften, Zheng Xingguo's breath gradually calmed down. He raised his head and rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Didn't you hear it? Although Feng Wenfang and others accused our Zheng family of being bad at the press conference, they were all empty words without any specific content. What do you think this means?"

"Of course it's because there's nothing wrong with our Zheng family." Mrs. Zheng said confidently.

Zheng Xingguo couldn't help rolling his eyes, and lowered his voice and said, "This is their pledge of allegiance! If you offer them a price that satisfies them, they will naturally shut up and say it's all a misunderstanding. But if you don't satisfy them, can you guarantee that you have never disclosed any business matters to them?"

He was not afraid that Feng Wenfang and Chen Jiajun would slander the Zheng family. Which of these wealthy families in Hong Kong has never had a scandal? Which one really has a good reputation?

Hong Kong citizens are forgetful. No matter how big the news is, it will be forgotten in ten days or half a month. In another ten or eight years, no one will mention it.

What he was worried about was that they had something on the Zheng family.

The businessmen of their generation made their fortunes at the most chaotic time in Hong Kong, and no one had absolutely clean hands.

Even if we don't mention the past, let's just talk about the present. Whose business accounts can be absolutely clean? It's all

fine if you don't check it, but once you check it, everyone will be shocked. Although Feng Wenfang and Chen Jiajun didn't work for Zheng's, as the daughters-in-law of the Zheng family, they must know more inside information than outsiders. They don't need evidence, just tell the news to competitors, and they will have a drink.

Normal marriages between wealthy families in Hong Kong, even if the marriage relationship breaks down, will not tear each other apart to the extent of reporting each other. But look at what Feng Wenfang and Chen Jiajun did. Are these two people whose behavior can be inferred by common sense?

If you want peace, you can only pay them to keep silent.

The two brothers of the Zheng family also remained silent in the face of their father's questioning, especially Zheng Yanze, who really couldn't guarantee that he had not revealed important information to the two.

Mrs. Zheng obviously understood this point, but still felt unwilling: "Are we just going to let them ask for as much as they want?"

Zheng Xingguo narrowed his eyes and said: "It's definitely not okay to ask for as much as they want. Since it's a divorce, the division is naturally the marital property. If it's not in the name of Yanze and Yanhai, they can't ask for a penny more."

Mrs. Zheng was immediately thankful: "Fortunately, you are smart and didn't break up the shares." After being happy, she felt that it was not enough, and said bitterly, "It's really a bargain for them!"

“Okay, they were not raised to be heirs. No matter how much money they get now, their future is predictable and they will have little chance of turning things around.” Zheng Xingguo said, “Shut their mouths first. When things calm down, you can choose a partner for the two brothers Yanze and Yanhai. It’s right for them to get married and have a child as soon as possible.”

He had never urged for children before, but after this incident, he felt that this matter should be put on the agenda.

Mrs. Zheng felt the same way, and thinking of her future grandson, she said confidently: "When the time comes, I will definitely pick a wife for Yanze and Yanhai with a better family background and better looks than the original ones!"

...

Although she thought that Mrs. Zheng was daydreaming, after watching the process of Zheng Xingguo resolving the incident, Wen Yue still couldn't help but sigh: "Old people are still the most experienced."

Faced with the attacks of Feng Wenfang and Chen Jiajun, Zheng Yanze and his mother and son were either anxious or helpless. Unlike Zheng Xingguo, they analyzed the purpose of Feng and Chen based on a few sentences of retelling, and quickly thought of countermeasures and bottom lines.

If there is anything that Zheng Xingguo did not expect, it should be that Feng Wenfang and Chen Jiajun were not as deep-minded as he imagined. They had never thought of using any handle to threaten the Zheng family. They really just planned to make up rumors.

However, although the two parties' brain circuits are different, the final result can be regarded as different paths to the same destination.

After several tug-of-wars, the four people on both sides finally reached an agreement on the division of property, and they both went to handle the divorce before the expiration of the second melon-eating value calculation of the transfer couple.

So taking advantage of this heat, before the expiration of the melon-eating value calculation, Wen Yue's daily melon-eating value once again exceeded 10,000.

In the end, through the two melons of the transfer couple, Wen Yue received a total of more than 2.745 million melon-eating values.

After this melon ended, Wen Yue redeemed another 1,000 days of life value. As of the beginning of June, the remaining life value she redeemed was more than 2,000 days, which is equivalent to 5.7 years.

In addition, as this melon came to an end, the bodyguard training also ended and they officially started to work.

However, after they arrived at the post, Wen Yue had not six but seven bodyguards around her, so she kept Chen Jianping. Although the young man is young, he has a very flexible mind, and he has several years of experience. She can feel more at ease with him leading the others.

Yi Huai has many capable people around him, and it is very pleasant to give to others. Chen Jianping himself is also happy to work for Wen Yue. This is a promotion for him. After the official transfer, his salary increased a lot, and his colleagues are very envious.

After the bodyguards were in place, Wen Yue did not plan to stay at home anymore, and was ready to take action.

At the banquet held by the Lin family, although Wen Yue only clocked in to see two big melons from the Zheng family, she did gain other things. After meeting the rich and powerful people and daughters of Hong Kong, she was able to find many places where they often gather through the system.

Wen Yue plans to go there every now and then to meet more people and clock in.

At the same time, she also told Yi Huai that he could call her if he needed a female companion. The places he went to must have been filled with rich people, and there would be no shortage of corresponding melons.

But just as she had planned and had no time to act, something happened at Dongjiang Newspaper.

Wen Yue received a call from Huang Zhihao on Sunday morning.

Although there is no strict distinction between working days and rest days in the media industry, it is not uncommon for reporters to wait at other people's doors on New Year's Eve when they are reporting on the news.

However, there is only one weekly newspaper under Dongjiang Newspaper, and the work intensity is not that high. Needless to say, all employees were on retirement before.

After Wen Yue came here, although she set up a reward and punishment system to motivate everyone to work hard, she did not require employees to work overtime. If someone needs to follow the news on weekends, they can not clock in at the company, but report the news to the leader. If the leader approves, the salary will be calculated as normal overtime, and the car and fuel expenses will be reimbursed.

Therefore, no one works at Dongjiang Newspaper on weekends.

Huang Zhihao also received a call from He Jitou downstairs, and then he knew that the company had been splashed with paint.

In fact, it is not quite accurate to say this. In fact, the paint was splashed on the two shop floors downstairs. After all, Dongjiang Newspaper is on the second floor, and it is difficult to splash the paint without a ladder.

As for why Huang Zhihao was sure that the people who threw paint wanted to target the newspaper company, it was because those people left a sentence - what should be said should not be said or should not be said easily, I don't know! Eight wives!

There is no business lady downstairs in He Ji, and there is only one owner of the barber shop. Dongjiang Newspaper is owned by Wen Yue. Even if it is not widely known, there are still many people who know about it.

There are women among the residents on the third to sixth floors, but if they offend someone, they can just catch them and teach them a lesson. There is no need for those people to come downstairs and throw paint at their house in the middle of the night.

Moreover, this sentence can show that the person or unit that was splashed with paint offended others because they said something they shouldn't have said. On the first to sixth floors of No. 9 Yongli Street, is there anyone or unit that meets this condition better than the "Dongjiang Entertainment News"?

After a little calculation, Huang Zhihao guessed that it was probably because the newspaper industry was too popular during this period and offended the rich man who was exposed.

So after checking the scene, Huang Zhihao immediately called Wen Yue to explain the situation.

He did this not because he was incompetent and only knew to complain when encountering things, but because he was an ordinary person and had no ability to fight with those people behind him.

What kind of people do what kind of things, instead of taking the matter on himself and being unable to solve it, he might as well report it immediately and let the more capable boss decide what to do.

Upon learning that the company was splashed with paint, Wen Yue's expression instantly turned cold. After hanging up the phone, she called her bodyguards and went to the newspaper company without saying a word.

This was the first time Wen Yue went to No. 9 Wing Lee Street after she had a team of bodyguards.

The neighbors who used to come to Ho Kee for dinner were always scared when they saw Wen Yue with two black-clad bodyguards. This time, when the neighbors gathered under the No. 9 building saw her with so many black-clad people, their first reaction was not fear, but they shouted happily: "Here they come! Miss Wen is here with her bodyguards!"

As the shouts rang out, the onlookers quickly made way for her to lead the people in. As

soon as Wen Yue walked into the encirclement, she saw red paint splashed on the walls and rolling gates on the first floor. The only place that was not splashed with paint was also written with paint.

When the two shop owners saw Wen Yue coming, they all said with bitter faces: "Look, Miss Wen, I don't know which black-hearted person asked someone to throw paint on us. We can't do business now because of this."

"Yes, yes," the residents upstairs said, "We have lived here for decades and have always lived in peace. Now that something like this has happened, we dare not go out at night!"

Someone pulled the sleeve of the person who spoke in front: "Why are you saying this? Miss Wen has come here in person. This matter will definitely be resolved."

"Oh, I was just talking casually. I have great faith in Miss Wen's ability," the man smiled at Wen Yue ingratiatingly, "Miss Wen, can you solve this problem?"

Wen Yue could understand these old neighbors. They had lived here for so many years, and naturally did not want their stable life to be disrupted, and for someone to come and make trouble every now and then in the future.

She raised her voice and said, "Don't worry, I assure you that what happened last night was the first and last time this will happen. I will catch the culprit as soon as possible."

The residents did not suffer any losses, so they were relieved to hear this, but the two shop owners on the first floor still had bitter faces.

Their shop was the most seriously damaged this time. The inside was not bad, but it would cost a lot of money to remove the paint on the outside.

In fact, the expense is not bad. Those people targeted Dongjiang Newspaper Company. The person who removed the paint will naturally be found by the newspaper company, and they will pay for it.

The problem is that it takes time to find someone to remove the paint. The smell of paint is so strong at the door, and they will definitely not be able to open the door before it is completed. They are all small businesses. They can still hold on if they close for one or two days, but they can't stand it if they close for ten days or half a month. The loss is all money.

But Wen Yue was not only their neighbor, but also their landlord. Even if they were worried, they were too embarrassed to express their worries directly in front of her.

Fortunately, Wen Yue was not someone who could not read people's expressions. Although she had never been out in society in her previous life, she could understand the hardships of ordinary people. After comforting the tenants, she said to the two of them, "Uncle He, Uncle Dong, you can rest assured. I will tell them not to charge you rent this month. In addition, you can count the revenue of the past three months, and I will compensate you for the losses during the suspension period."

Hearing Wen Yue say that she would not charge rent this month, the two of them were delighted. Although the rent of Yongli Street could not be compared with that of the commercial streets outside, it still cost a lot of money every month.

When they heard Wen Yue say that she would pay for their losses out of her own pocket, the two were even more excited. However, Uncle He was more thoughtful and said quickly, "We are already very satisfied that you can waive the rent for us. Besides, your company will also suffer a lot of losses after this incident. How can we take your money again?"

Wen Yue said, "Those people want to target me. You are implicated and cannot do business. It is only natural for me to compensate you for your losses. Moreover, my family is big and this little money is nothing to me. Uncle He and Uncle Dong, you should not refuse me."

Her words really touched the hearts of the neighbors, especially those who do business nearby. They almost wished that they were the ones who rented Wen Yue's shop.

How could they not meet such a conscientious landlady?

Some people also sincerely considered for the two of them and advised, "Miss Wen has said so, so you should accept the money. If you are alone, it's fine, but if you have a family, what will you do if you don't have income for ten days or half a month?"

Hearing the words of the neighbors, the two no longer refused and accepted Wen Yue's proposal with great gratitude. After

comforting the good guy, Wen Yue asked the bodyguards to take action, either to check the scene to see if they could find any clues, or to ask the neighbors if anyone heard anything last night.

At this point, the advantage of hiring retired special forces soldiers as bodyguards was reflected, and their detection ability was really strong.

In less than half an hour, several people roughly judged the height and body shape of the people who came based on the height of the paint, the pile of cigarette butts that had not been cleaned up at the door, and the footprints next to the pile of cigarette butts.

Of course, because except for the traces next to the pile of cigarette butts, the footprints in other places had been trampled over and over again by the neighbors, so the specific number of people who came was still unknown.

In addition, through questioning, they concluded that the time of the crime by those people might be around two or three in the morning, because there were neighbors in front and behind getting up at night.

As for whether anyone got up during the process, she didn't ask the question for the time being.

Wen Yue didn't give up. She arranged for bodyguards to continue the investigation while calling the police.

While waiting for the police, Wen Yue asked the system in her mind: [Don't you have any useful information here? ]

[No. ] The system answered aggrievedly. After hanging up the phone, the host had asked this question several times.

[Aren't you an omniscient system? Why can't you find out such an important thing? ]

[Host, I am a melon-eating system, not an omniscient system. 】The system reminded, 【You check in with the melon owner, then I will know what will happen to the other party in the past and future, and what I know is based on the original work. If the melon owner's life changes, I will no longer be able to know the other party's future. I can only inquire about the other party's past and what he is doing now. 】

Okay.

Wen Yue reluctantly accepted this explanation and was about to sigh, when suddenly an idea flashed in her mind and asked: 【In other words, the mastermind behind the scenes is someone I have never met? 】

【Yes. 】

【But according to what he/she asked someone to leave, it should be the melon owner I broke the news about, I should have met all these people. 】

And so far, she has only broken four melons in total, among which Zhou Baoyi's family of three has been packed up and taken to Southeast Asia. She has met all the Wen family members except those who are abroad.

Lin Yongkang was sent to prison by her. Chen A-mei, an old lady who was not well-off, obviously did not have the ability to bribe people to do such a thing.

As for Shao Mingzhu and his wife and Lin Yongxian, they were too busy to thank her, so how could they order people to throw paint on her company?

Could it be someone from the second and third branches of the Lin family who did it?

No, she met people from the second and third branches on the day of the banquet. Although they did not have any big melons, if they were the ones who found them, they would definitely not escape the eyes of the system.

The Zheng Yanze brothers and Feng and Chen had the conditions and motives to warn her, but they were also dissatisfied with the condition that they had not seen her.

No, there are people involved in these two melons of the Zheng family - she has never met Zheng Xingguo and his wife.

Wen Yue asked: [Tong, do you think it is possible that Zheng Xingguo and his wife did this? 】

System: [Dear, you haven't met them. I can't find out. 】

Wen Yue: "..."

Oh, it seems that she is not working hard enough and has met too few people.
