Chapter 422 Quite Cunning



Qiao Wanwan was overjoyed, "What clue!"

"The clues from the explosives supplier do indicate that a mysterious person purchased explosives, and the quantity matches exactly the amount used to destroy the Zhan family's old house!"

Who is the mysterious person?

"I don't know. Money makes the world go round. The mysterious person paid three times the price just to keep it a secret."

Qiao Wanwan was extremely worried. "It's not surprising that someone could buy explosives, but how did this person manage to sneak into the Zhan family's old house and plant them? This person not only needs to be very familiar with the Zhan family's old house, but also needs to know that Jing Ting will definitely go to the Zhan family's old house on Mom's birthday."

Jiang Dong's expression was grave. "What you say is true, my father is indeed the prime suspect right now."

Qiao Wanwan remained noncommittal, saying, "This matter is becoming increasingly perplexing, but we cannot identify the mysterious person at this time; we can only continue the investigation."

"Yes." Jiang Dong continued to report, "Madam, the situation with the United Alliance has been mostly resolved, but Zhan Xiuwen is cunning and has long prepared an escape route. Most of the funds have already been transferred by him, and he has found a puppet to take the blame."

"In other words, although his company collapsed, he still managed to escape unscathed with most of his funds."

"Yes."

“That’s not important,” Qiao Wanwan said. “My purpose in dealing with him was to make an example of him and prevent him from joining forces with the Huo family. Now that goal has been achieved.”

"However, you still need to send someone to keep an eye on Zhan Xiuwen. If he makes any move, punish him severely until he doubts the meaning of life."

“Yes,” Jiang Dong said. “I didn’t expect Madam to be so cunning.”

“I know that many eyes are on the Imperial View Group, and also on me. Since Zhan Xiuwen likes to be the first to speak out, I certainly won’t be polite. Consider this a reminder to those who are watching me.”

“What you say is true, madam.”

That evening, Wutong Bay called, "Mommy, why aren't you home yet?"

Qiao Wanwan smiled and said, "Eleven, Mommy is working. You be a good girl and take your little brother to bed, okay?"

"Hmph! With Daddy not home, Mommy has to work and doesn't have time to spend with me. When is Daddy coming back?!"

Qiao Wanwan said helplessly, "Mommy has indeed been a bit busy these past few days. Please understand during the National Day holiday, okay?"

"Alright then..." Eleven pouted unhappily, "But Mommy, my brother and I miss you so much..."

Qiao Wanwan's nose tingled with tears. "Mommy misses you all too. Mommy will come back to be with you as soon as I finish my work."

"good."

"good."

Qiao Wanwan hung up the phone, looked at the family photo on her desk, and tears streamed down her face. "Jingting, where are you...?"

......

Although Qiao Wanwan resolved the internal troubles and the external threat of Zhan Xiuwen, more external threats soon followed.

The Imperial View Group is facing numerous crises, especially since Qiao Wanwan is pregnant and has two children to take care of. She is gradually becoming overwhelmed, both physically and mentally.

In the afternoon, after finishing a meeting in the conference room, Qiao Wanwan stood up and suddenly felt dizzy and fell forward, losing consciousness.

"lady!"

"lady!"

When she woke up again, Qiao Wanwan was already at home, with her two children gathered around her bed, looking at her with concern.

"Master, what's wrong with me?"

"Overworked," the Ghost Hand Doctor said helplessly. "Wanwan, your workload is too heavy. You don't get enough rest. Even ordinary people might not be able to handle it, let alone a pregnant woman like you."

"I'm fine," Qiao Wanwan smiled. "Actually, even if I didn't go to the Imperial View Group, I wouldn't be able to sleep. I'm worried about Jingting..."

“Master knows you’re worried about Jingting, but you also need to take care of yourself,” the Ghost Hand Doctor said firmly. “From today onwards, you are not allowed to go to work at the Imperial View Group. You must stay home and rest in bed.”

"No, Jing Ting's whereabouts are unknown, and the group is already in a state of panic. If I don't go to take charge, things will probably fall into chaos."

"Nothing is more important than your health, so this is settled."

"Master..."

Just as Qiao Wanwan opened her mouth, Zheng Ma came in and said, "Madam, Young Master Wen has arrived and wants to see you."

“Wanwan can’t get out of bed right now,” said the Ghost Hand Doctor. “Have Lijing come up here.”

"yes."

Wen Lijing quickly entered the master bedroom and asked, "Wanwan, how are you?"

Qiao Wanwan smiled slightly. "I'm fine, I just got a little too excited all of a sudden."

“You look terrible.” Wen Lijing looked at her with concern. “The workload of the Imperial View Group is more than you can handle, not to mention that it is currently in a state of crisis. If your influence is not strong enough, people outside will naturally be eager to make a move. I heard that several projects have already slowed down.”

"That's the situation, but I have no other choice right now. I can only try to stabilize things and wait for Jingting to come back."

"Still no news from Jing Ting?"

"We've searched everywhere we can, but we still haven't found a single clue."

Wen Lijing said, "Wanwan, I'll go to the Imperial View Group to help you."

Qiao Wanwan refused outright, "No need, I can handle it myself, I don't want to trouble others."

“Listen to me first,” Wen Lijing analyzed. “I’m more suitable to be the acting president than you. I have some connections in this industry, and most people will give me some face and won’t dare to touch me easily.”

"Of course you are better than me, but you have your own job, and I can't add to your burden."

"That's easy, I've already resigned."

"What did you say?" Qiao Wanwan exclaimed in shock. "How could you resign?"
