Chapter 568 A Pillow for a Sleepyhead



"It would be best if you could figure it out yourself!"

Wang Qian picked up the wine bowl and gestured with his eyes to the small bowl full of baijiu in front of Zhou Qin, "Drink up, this may be the last time we meet."

"I'm not in the mood!"

Zhou Qin refused outright.

He felt no gratitude towards Wang Qian, let alone any goodwill towards him.

On the contrary, he absolutely hated Wang Qian.

but,

Yet they had no choice but to compromise.

Because Wang Qian still has leverage over him that could send him to prison.

This is also the real reason why he was willing to risk his reputation to go to court and testify against Wang Qian's father-in-law, Liu Jingzhong.

It wasn't that he wanted to, but that Wang Qian forced him to.

As for the incriminating evidence, it was that he was involved when Liu Qingqing hired someone to commit murder and frame Wang Qian.

Later, Liu Qingqing was sent to prison by Wang Qian, but he was able to protect himself. This was not because he found a way out on his own, nor because Wang Qian was merciful, but because he secretly made a deal with him.

Help Wang Qian become an undercover agent for Liu Jingzhong.

He was certainly unwilling to accept this condition, but the evidence Wang Qian possessed could put him in prison for at least ten years.

He didn't want to go to jail, so he had no choice but to accept it.

This is Wang Qian's biggest advantage in this contest with Liu Jingzhong.

With him as an undercover agent, no matter how cunning Liu Jingzhong is, Wang Qian can predict Liu Jingzhong's every move with godlike accuracy and take effective precautions in advance.

For example, Long Shuai used money as bait to exploit Zhou Yuanyuan's parents, and even planned to poison Zhou Yuanyuan to deal with Wang Qian.

As a result, because he secretly tipped them off, Wang Qian managed to get a hold of Zhou Yuanyuan's parents in advance.

Even Long Shuai, the mastermind behind it all, couldn't escape Wang Qian's grasp.

As for his father-in-law, Liu Jingzhong, the fact that he ended up losing both his wife and his army was entirely due to Liu Jingzhong's actions.

It can be said that everything he did in his life was the epitome of despicable behavior.

In order to curry favor with the Liu family, he abandoned his wife Gao Churou, who had been incredibly good to him, and even used shameless methods to swindle more than three million yuan of assets from her.

Afterwards, he married into the Liu family. In order to take advantage of the Liu family's wealth and realize his ambitions, he always bowed and scraped.

As a result, after all these years, what he gained from swallowing his anger was not the trust of the Liu family, but all kinds of disdain and contempt.

Especially after Liu Qingqing's accident and imprisonment, his status in the Liu family plummeted.

It could be said that in the Liu family, his situation was no different from that of a servant or slave; he was summoned and dismissed at will.

But no matter how much he hated it, he could only grit his teeth and swallow it down.

And today, he did something that everyone found utterly despicable.

He switched sides at the last minute, helping Wang Qian testify against his father-in-law, Liu Jingzhong, and sending the latter to prison in one fell swoop.

Having done so many disgraceful things, his life was truly a tragedy.

"You must hate me to the core, right?"

Just as Zhou Qin was feeling extremely frustrated, Wang Qian's magnetic voice came through.

Zhou Qin's lips twitched, and he said in a deep voice, "What do you think?"

"I was just asking casually."

Wang Qian smiled and said, "Whether you hate me or not is not something I'm considering."

"Wang Qian, do you look down on me that much?"

A strong sense of humiliation rose on Zhou Qin's face.

Over the years, he has done so many despicable things, all in the final analysis, just to get ahead and be regarded as a real big shot.

As a result, every decision backfired.

And this became almost the deepest pain in his heart.

Therefore, anyone who looks down on him is like someone who has touched his most sensitive nerve, enough to make him so angry that he loses control.

"I'm just telling the truth!"

Wang Qian said casually, "Whether you like to hear it or not is your business."

Zhou Qin was slightly taken aback, a deep sense of confusion and endless frustration appearing in his eyes.

He's already done it, yet he won't let anyone talk about it. That's like burying your head in the sand and deceiving yourself.

"Alright, I'll drink this!"

After silently considering for a moment, he picked up the bowl of wine that Wang Qian had poured and drank it down in one gulp.

The wine was scalding hot, but his heart was cold, cold to the core.

"If I'm not mistaken, you're about to leave, aren't you?"

Wang Qian added, "This meal is a farewell feast. I wish you a smooth journey and all the best in the future."

As he spoke, Wang Qian poured another bowl of wine and filled Zhou Qin's bowl as well.

"Thank you for your kind words!"

Zhou Qin smiled bitterly, picked up his wine bowl, and said, "I appreciate your kindness in putting aside past grievances and giving me a farewell dinner alone."

He raised his glass and clinked it with Wang Qian's, then downed the entire bowl of wine in one gulp.

"Cool!"

He suddenly burst into laughter: "It's been so long since I've had such a satisfying drink!"

Then, he took the initiative to clink glasses with Wang Qian a few more times.

Wang Qian did not refuse; he did not object whenever Zhou Qin raised the bowl.

Although Zhou Qin was a complete scoundrel, he had been used by him for so long. Today, in order to take down Liu Jingzhong in one fell swoop, Zhou Qin was completely disgraced.

Based on this alone, he had no reason to go to such lengths to exterminate them.

"Okay, I'm off then!"

After clinking glasses with Wang Qian several times, Zhou Qin seemed to have had his fill of wine, his gloom lifted, and he seemed to have found the motivation to live again.

Wang Qian didn't say much, but calmly watched Zhou Qin get up and prepare to leave.

Although there has been constant infighting within the Liu family, they are relatively united when it comes to matters of principle.
