Chapter 125 Cleaning Up the Battlefield



After regaining the seal of the Song Group, Song Qingliu was still immersed in immense joy, her mood as if floating on clouds.

Inside the bedroom.

Song Qingliu exclaimed with delight, "Lin Xiao, I didn't expect things to go so smoothly!"

"My dad looks shrewd, strong, and arrogant, but I never imagined that as long as I found his weakness, I could defeat him."

"That idiot Chen Rong is even more vulnerable."

"I really owe you a lot this time. Otherwise, I don't know how much longer I would have to endure it, and I might never have been able to get back the inheritance my mother left me."

With the matter settled, Lin Xiao was in a good mood and laughed, "I just offered an idea. The success of this matter is mainly due to Qingliu's own courage and skill in finding so many thugs."

Song Qingliu smiled gently and said, "Lin Xiao, tonight is crucial. I'm worried that letting them go will provoke an even more frantic backlash."

"I'll call the Song family's old house in a bit and tell them that my dad and brother drank too much and stayed here tonight, so they won't get suspicious."

Lin Xiao nodded, "Yes. Tomorrow, make sure the handover is complete, hold another press conference to finalize things, and bring more bodyguards when you go out. That should be fine."

Song Qingliu nodded vigorously, "I know. I mean... could you stay with me tonight? I'm scared to be alone. You know there are fifty men downstairs. If they have any bad intentions, I'm doomed."

Lin Xiao hesitated and said, "There's no need to keep so many people. Disperse them all, and let the people your father brought leave too."

"However, you need to use both kindness and severity on your father's men. First, scare them, and then give each of them a sum of money. That way, they will no longer care about Chen Jingyao and his son, who have already lost power."

Song Qingliu nodded, "You'll come with me."

Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly. "I won't go. It would be better to have Assistant Xu handle it."

Song Qingliu thought for a moment, "Okay. Then wait for me here, I'll be up soon."

Lin Xiao nodded, sat down on a chair to the side, and closed his eyes to rest.

With a nervous heart, Song Qingliu went downstairs and said to Xu Chen and Sister Wang, "Come down with me."

The three of them went to the semi-basement.

The 50 thugs and the 9 people Chen Jingyao brought were all in the basement at this time.

Song Qingliu first dealt with the people Chen Jingyao brought.

"I won't make things difficult for you. We're all out here trying to make a living. Once we walk out this door, everything that happened today will be wiped clean."

"Now, the person in charge of the Song family has changed from my father, Chen Jingyao, to me, Song Qingliu. Think it through: do you want to continue to be stubborn and oppose the entire Song family, or do you want to be pragmatic, recognize the situation, and stand with the Song family?"

"Based on the conditions Chen Jingyao gave you, I will give everyone a 30% raise."

Upon hearing this, those people were clearly pleasantly surprised.

They were all tied up like dumplings and then got a good beating. They were just trying to earn money, and nobody wanted to go through such a mishap.

Now things have taken a turn for the better. The new boss not only doesn't hold them accountable, but also gives them a raise. Is there really such a good thing in the world?

It's no secret that Chen Jingyao, as a son-in-law, wanted to seize the Song family's assets. The public had already heard about this.

They all knew that Song Qingliu was the rightful heir of the Song family.

Therefore, with almost no resistance, these people all expressed their willingness to follow Chairman Soong, thanking him for his magnanimity, and promising to be devoted to him and follow his lead without question.

Song Qingliu immediately had Xu Chen transfer five thousand yuan to each of them, "It's a small token of my appreciation to calm your nerves and to cover your medical expenses."

All nine people were all smiles and expressed their gratitude.

After watching the nine of them leave, Song Qingliu said to the fifty people she had recruited, "You've all worked hard today. Assistant Xu, give each of you a bonus of ten thousand."

These fifty people were recruited by Xu Chen from a professional school. They were all college students. The original agreed base salary was one thousand, with a bonus if the job was done. They all thought the bonus would be at most two or three thousand, but it turned out to be ten thousand. Therefore, they were all very happy and expressed their gratitude.

Assistant Xu transferred 10,000 yuan to each person, and everyone left happily after receiving the money.

As soon as the person left, the oppressive feeling in the room immediately dissipated.

Song Qingliu breathed a sigh of relief without making it obvious.

"Assistant Xu, you can stay at the Ziwei Garden tonight. Sister Wang, please take Assistant Xu to the guest room first."

Sister Wang also breathed a sigh of relief. She was happy for her employer. Everyone else had received a raise, so how far was she from getting one?

She thought to herself with delight as she led Xu Chen to the guest room.

Xu Chen's eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation. Was Lin Xiao also going to stay overnight at Ziwei Garden tonight?

Song Qingliu walked up to the second floor with a feeling of excitement and joy.

Hearing the door open, Lin Xiao opened his eyes and looked at Song Qingliu, saying calmly, "Is everything taken care of?"

Song Qingliu nodded, "Yes! I left Xu Chen here, just in case. Although my dad and brother are both handcuffed, I'm still scared. I'm afraid they might break free and kill me."

Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly but remained silent.

"Lin Xiao, will you stay with me tonight? I feel anxious being alone." Song Qingliu took Lin Xiao's hand and said softly.

Lin Xiao wasn't in high spirits, but he was also a little worried that Chen Jingyao and his son might retaliate and ruin everything. So he pondered for a moment and said, "Okay. But we'll have to sleep in separate rooms."

Song Qingliu's smile froze. She glared at Lin Xiao and said coquettishly, "Lin Xiao, what you said really hurts me! Is sharing a bed with me a hardship for you?"

"Am I some kind of ugly monster that you hate me so much?"

Lin Xiao smiled faintly: "Quite the opposite. Qingliu, you are very beautiful."

Song Qingliu's heart skipped a beat.

Her cheeks flushed instantly.

My heart was pounding wildly in my chest.

This is even more alluring than direct love confessions.

She remained silent for a moment, and when she looked up at Lin Xiao again, her eyes were full of tenderness and affection.

"Lin Xiao, you... don't sleep in the same bed with me, is it because you're afraid you won't be able to control yourself and will do something to me?" Her voice was low and gentle, with a hint of shyness in it.

Lin Xiao glanced at Song Qingliu, knowing that if he answered yes, this girl would definitely want to sleep with him, not for any other reason than to see him make a fool of himself.

Perhaps she would also be willing to have something happen between them.

But Lin Xiao didn't want to make things so complicated, so he smiled and said, "No. I'm afraid Qingliu will try to touch me inappropriately and make me unable to sleep."

Song Qingliu laughed and scolded, "I wouldn't do that. Lin Xiao, I've discovered that your skin is thicker than a city wall."

Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly. "Oh, right, Qingliu, settle today's wages first. And tonight's expenses too."

Song Qingliu was exasperated. "Fine. I'll transfer the money to you right now, okay?"

Before long, the remaining 800,000 yuan balance, plus the 2.4 million yuan for tonight's overnight stay, totaling 3.2 million yuan, was transferred to Lin Xiao's account.
