His silence made the Klin family members around him seem to understand something.
“John’s money…”
“I didn’t! What are you all thinking! John is my brother. He left the Klin family and is barely making ends meet. How could I possibly take his inheritance? Am I that kind of person?”
"heritage?"
The female executive next to him was stunned, her face full of shock. She turned to look at Joel and asked, "Your father... passed away?"
The sudden exposure startled Mingyan again. He glanced at Qijiu, who was smiling at him, and swallowed hard.
Was everything that's happening now part of this guy's plan?
Joel nodded. "Yes, he's long dead."
Upon receiving this response, the atmosphere in the hall became tense.
The female elite who had just asked the question was clearly not friendly in her eyes as she looked at Mingyan. "We don't even know what industry John went into after leaving the Klin family, so how do you know he's dead?"
Feeling the gazes of so many people, Mingyan instantly felt his body heat up, and a layer of cold sweat quickly appeared on his back.
That's because...
"That's because Mr. Mingyan has taken over Mr. John's inheritance, and he knows everything."
Now that things have come to this point, Mingyan knows that no matter what he says, it's useless, so in the end he can only resort to shamelessness.
“Miss Qi Jiu, you should speak with evidence. Since you are so certain, please provide the evidence.”
His confident smile and self-assured demeanor made Qi Jiu and the others unable to suppress their laughter.
Where did this idiot come from?
The girl didn't speak, but simply reached out, and Wu Chi beside her brought over some things. Paper evidence, and even electronic evidence on a tablet, were brought out.
The transfer record above is very clear, showing the recipient's and sender's account numbers, names, etc.
All kinds of evidence are here, one piece of evidence after another. If you said it was a coincidence or a fabrication before, now that the evidence is all here, is there anything else to say?
Mingyan looked at the things the girl had taken out and visibly panicked. The seals on them were genuine, so he couldn't even lie anymore.
"You, where did you get these things from? These things are clearly..."
"You've already protected it very well?"
Qi Jiu stood up and looked at him. "What good are your little tricks? What do you think those hackers you hired can do for you? Can the person you have even been called a hacker?"
"What, what do you mean?"
For some reason, a bad feeling welled up in his heart, making him feel like he couldn't breathe.
"Oh dear, Mr. Mingyan doesn't know yet, I forgot to mention." The girl had a faint smile on her lips. "Hello Mr. Mingyan, let me reintroduce myself, I am N from The Matrix."
"...N?"
Mingyan was stunned, and a look of despair and collapse gradually appeared on his face as he stared intently at Qijiu.
"You're not the boss of Xingyue? Where did you get this hacker identity? Miss Qijiu, you're willing to tell such lies to achieve this goal?"
He tried to remain calm, attempting to shift all the blame onto the people opposite him.
But the people present weren't fools; flies don't land on eggs without cracks. They could understand many things.
"A lie?" Qi Jiu found it amusing. "Look at what you're saying now, do you think anyone will believe you?"
The girl shrugged, causing Mingyan to subconsciously look around. Sure enough, everyone's gaze towards him had changed.
"Your brother meant well, but he never expected his brother to be so vicious, not even sparing the money of the dead. He's truly wicked."
At this moment, the middle-aged female elite took a step forward, her eyes filled with complex emotions as she looked at Qi Jiu.
"Miss Qi Jiu came here claiming to help the Klin family, but is her real aim to change the Klin family's leadership?"
If she still doesn't understand now, she's truly a fool.
Qi Jiu nodded. "Yes, this can be considered helping your Klin family, right? Oh, you probably don't know yet that the Klin family's current situation is man-made?"
Once those words are spoken, even a fool would understand.
The female executive's expression suddenly changed. "Why did you do this?"
Regardless of who is in power, this will affect the entire Klin family, and what if the losses are irreparable?
"Why? It's because that kid called me 'Grandma Sister'." Her gaze drifted casually over Joel behind her, her expression languid.
In fact, Qi Jiu understood that the Klin family had nothing to do with her. Using her strength to target the Klin family was not the act of a gentleman.
But since friends need it, and the market follows the law of the jungle, then it's nothing.
Anyway, she's not a good person, so it's not a big deal if she does some petty things.
"But you..."
Before the man could finish speaking, the girl waved her hand impatiently.
"Have you ever considered that even without me, your Klin family would have reached this point?" Those dark eyes swept over everyone present.
"To be honest, do all members of your Klin family truly believe in Mingyan? Since the final outcome is inevitable, why not try someone else? At least it's an opportunity."
At this point, although the people around him were somewhat shaken, they still did not give a definite answer.
“Miss Qi Jiu, it’s not that we don’t want to give you face, but we can’t guarantee what abilities Joel currently possesses. Our Klin family isn’t some kind of lab rat; what if…”
"Don't worry about that."
Joel suddenly took a step forward. “If I don’t have the ability, I will give up my position to someone else as soon as possible. I will also use the inheritance my father left me wisely.”
With these words, and with Qi Jiu and the others providing support, it was clear that even if Ming Yan spoke his mind, it would be to no avail.
In the end, he explicitly stated that he would step down as the person in charge, but in order to survive, he has not severed ties with the Klin family.
Inside the study, Qi Jiu and others, along with several important members of the Klin family, were present. Looking at the documents on the table, Joel was at a loss for words. He wanted to complain, but when he saw the Klin family members, he swallowed his complaints.
"My little ancestor, this kid tackled something so difficult right off the bat?"
There were so many documents and contracts on the table that it was impossible to count them all. Even he, let alone Joel, found it a bit of a headache.
