Chapter 949: Professional Trickster (Part 3)
Sheng Lin: “W-what…”
"This shows that Ruan Qi's position in the Xi family has reached the point where she can order Gong Qi around at will!" Old Master Sheng glared at her with red eyes. "Looking across the entire imperial capital, how many people can order Gong Qi around? Ruan Qi can get Gong Qi to side with her like this, which means her becoming the wife of the Xi family's head is a foregone conclusion!"
"Now that Old Xi is still alive, Ruan Qi won't make things difficult for the Sheng family for his sake. But what about in the future? When Ruan Qi really marries in and takes control of the Xi family, do you think she will do something to the Sheng family? Something to you and Qingqing!"
Mr. Sheng’s words were like a club, hitting Sheng Lin hard on the head.
Sheng Lin's head suddenly went bewildered.
She had always only cared about the small benefits in front of her, and didn't see things as far as Old Man Sheng did. Now that she was pointed out like this, she panicked like a headless fly.
"Then, what should we do?" Her face turned pale. "How about we try to stop Ruan Qi from marrying into the Xi family?"
Mr. Sheng: “…”
How did such a terrible thing come about?!
Old Master Sheng was almost pissed off by his own daughter's touching IQ.
He glared at her fiercely: "Throw away those messed up ideas in your head! Who Xi Jiu wants to marry is not something we can control. Be careful not to burn yourself if you play with fire! Remember this now, you must sincerely apologize to Ruan Qi later. Don't be impulsive, otherwise the entire Sheng family will pay the price!"
Sheng Lin was truly frightened this time. She nodded with a pale face, not daring to even fart.
Not long after, Gong Qi came back.
"I have already conveyed your apologies to the old man. Please wait a moment, the old man will be here shortly."
This 'later' suddenly lasted for more than half an hour.
The tea on the coffee table was changed three times before Mr. Xi finally arrived.
He sat down on the sofa with a cold demeanor, and lazily raised his eyelids to glance at the Sheng father and daughter.
Old Master Sheng sat up nervously, "Old Xi, I'm sorry for what happened just now. I've already scolded Sheng Lin, and she already knows she was wrong. Look..."
Mr. Xi's eyes swept across Sheng Lin's red and swollen face, and he raised his eyebrows meaningfully.
"It seems like you really know you were wrong." He nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, I'll call Xiao Qi again."
The phone rang again.
The Sheng family's father and daughter tensed their bodies, staring intently at the phone, as if they wanted to stare Ruan Qi out of the phone.
Soon, Ruan Qi's voice came from the speakerphone.
"Grandpa Xi~"
The little girl's tone of voice habitually had a soft ending, which made Mr. Xi's cold face smile like a big chrysanthemum.
"Hey, Xiaoqi. Grandpa just had something urgent to do and hung up the phone. Do you have time now?"
"Yes." The little girl smiled sweetly, "As long as Grandpa Xi is looking for Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi is always available~"
Hey, who's this girl from?
So well-behaved!
Old Mr. Xi was so sweet that his face was bleeding, and his originally big eyes were almost broken by the smile.
"Xiao Qi is so good. I'll put the phone on the table. The Sheng family has something to tell you. Xiao Qi, grandpa is right next to the phone, don't be afraid."
After Mr. Xi finished speaking, he put his phone on the coffee table.
Old Master Sheng rubbed his hands nervously, "Miss Ruan, I'm Sheng Li, Ye Qingqing's grandfather."
Ruan Qi on the other end of the phone uttered a faint "hmm".
When Mr. Sheng heard the girl's response, he felt a strange sense of pressure. It was like facing someone in a higher position, making him feel panicky and at a loss.
It’s really strange. How could he have such a feeling about a girl who is only twenty years old?
Old Master Sheng shook his head and ignored the strange feeling in his heart.
He pondered for two seconds and spoke cautiously: "Ms. Ruan, my daughter Sheng Lin's attitude was not very good just now, please don't mind it. She was spoiled by me and doesn't know any better. Sheng Lin, apologize to Miss Ruan quickly!"
Sheng Lin was reluctant when her name was called.
Asking her to apologize to a girl younger than her own daughter made the spoiled eldest daughter of the Sheng family feel truly humiliated.
However, the slap from Mr. Sheng, the words he just said, and Ye Qingqing lying on the hospital bed, forced her to swallow this humiliation.
Sheng Lin gritted her teeth, tensed her veins and forced out the words "Ms. Ruan, I'm sorry" from between her teeth.
Ruan Qi chuckled softly when she heard the reluctant apology.
"I have received Ms. Sheng's apology. Is there anything else?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Old Master Sheng said quickly, "Miss Ruan, I want to talk about Qingqing."
"Ms. Ye?"
Ruan Qi chuckled, "Miss Ye should be in the hospital suffering a fate worse than death right now, right?"
Old Master Sheng was suddenly startled.
Ruan Qi actually admitted it so easily!
Sheng Lin: "It turns out you were the one who tampered with Qingqing's body!"
Ruan Qi heard her questioning scream and laughed with pleasure.
"Yeah. I was the one who poisoned her. Is that a problem?"
"Poison?! You actually poisoned my daughter?!" Sheng Lin's mind was on the verge of collapse. "I can call the police to arrest you!"
"Oh? Do you have any evidence?" Ruan Qi asked with a smile.
Sheng Lin was stunned.
evidence?
Ye Qingqing's current physical indicators are very healthy, and no toxins have been detected in her blood. Even though she is itchy and ulcerated, her physical indicators are completely normal.
Where does the evidence come from?
Hearing Ruan Qi's faint laughter, Sheng Lin's blood ran cold little by little.
Ruan Qi's skills and scheming were completely beyond her understanding.
This girl, who was two years younger than her daughter, had anticipated everything and blatantly played the entire Sheng family around!
Sheng Lin didn't know whether it was because she was angry or too scared, but her whole body began to tremble violently.
Fearing she might do something bad, Old Master Sheng quickly said to Ruan Qi on the phone, "Miss Ruan, Sheng Lin was just too worried about Qingqing and didn't mean to embarrass you. This is our fault, and we won't call the police. Please rest assured."
Ruan Qi said "Oh".
"It seems that Mr. Sheng is much smarter than your daughter. I still like talking to smart people."
Old Master Sheng smiled bitterly in his heart.
"Miss Ruan," he said, "please state your conditions. What can I do to help Qingqing detoxify?"
Ruan Qi: "My request is very simple."
"What is it?" Mr. Sheng asked hurriedly.
"Have Ye Qingqing come and apologize to me." Ruan Qi smiled. "Bow 90 degrees and apologize sincerely. Oh, and have her publish an apology letter in the Imperial Capital Xianyu group. It must be no less than 5,000 words."
Doesn’t Ye Qingqing like to steal other people’s boyfriends?
Then let her send an apology letter in front of all the second and third generations in the capital's Xianyu group.
Ruan Xiaoqi is a real pro at poking people in the heart!
