Chapter 102: One hundred and two billion "Two male mistresses bite each other!"...
In the living room of the Zhang family villa, Zhang Shidao stood beside the sofa, his clothes were wrinkled, his beard covered his chin and sideburns, his head was drooping, and even his hair hung down.
In the middle of the sofa, a wrinkled man with a white beard, holding a cane, has sighed countless times from the beginning to now.
"You're in your forties, can't you be more steady in your actions? You want me, a nearly seventy-year-old man, to come all the way from overseas to get you out of detention?!"
Old Master Zhang yelled angrily, gnashing his teeth, then touched his heart to calm himself down.
He has taken countless reassurances since he learned that his son was in trouble.
"It doesn't matter if you're locked up for three or four years, but what if you reveal some of the family's secrets? You bastard!" Old Master Zhang sighed deeply, "What a misfortune for our family."
"Dad!" Zhang Shidao raised his head. His usually steady eyes now looked a little childish in front of his father, and he even looked a little dissatisfied with the outcome. "I should have succeeded. The plan was flawless!"
"Perfect? Look at all the social media platforms right now. It's filled with videos of your men bribing the truck driver, videos of you asking Wang Quan to find a black car, videos of the truck repeatedly attacking that girl at the fork in the road. You call that perfect?!"
"I had arranged it!"
Zhang Shidao told Mr. Zhang the whole process, from the moment he met Xin Jingli to how things developed step by step to this point, without missing a word.
Finally, he concluded that Xin Jingli must have intended to destroy the Zhang family from the beginning, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence that after she had dealt with the Xi, Jing, Qin, and Tan families, she happened to meet him through the dance party.
"She must be very scheming. Every move she makes is part of her plan. Right now, our Zhang family is in a precarious situation. If we let her continue, the Zhang family will disappear from East City sooner or later!"
Mr. Zhang frowned upon hearing this. "From what you said, it seems this little girl is quite capable."
"We can't just sit there and wait for death!" Zhang Shidao clenched his fists. "Dad, find a way to get me out. I'll continue to find a way to deal with her."
"No." Old Master Zhang looked at Zhang Shi and said, "Weibo is all about you now. Everyone is paying attention to this matter. It has become a public event. The Zhang family lives under the eyes of others. If we use our connections to get you out now, what will happen to public opinion?"
"Besides, even with such a big incident, there's not even a single photo of this so-called Xin Jingli. Furthermore, only the three characters Xin Jingli appear in the incident, with no connection to the so-called [Li Li Yuan Shang Cao]. This is enough to prove that she was well prepared."
"In this matter, if there's any sign of trouble, she'll definitely take action, and you'll be doomed. This time, I'm bailing you out to tell you to stay in prison for the full sentence and not to act rashly."
"Dad!" Zhang Shidao rushed forward, plopping down on his knees, his eyes filled with disbelief. "You want me to go to jail? Me? I'm over forty years old, and you want me to go to jail at this time?"
Zhang Shidao grabbed Mr. Zhang's wrist, and both of them were shaking violently.
Old Master Zhang didn't want this to happen either, as he had to separate from his son at such an old age. However, he had to weigh the pros and cons. He couldn't ruin the Zhang family's decades-long fortune for his son.
The only thing to hate is this so-called Xin Jingli. He had just arrived in Dongcheng not long ago, but he had already turned Dongcheng upside down.
Now, we can only stabilize the situation and make long-term plans.
"The evidence is solid for attempted murder. What else can you do except go to jail? If you dare to mess around and destroy the Zhang family, I will be the first to kill you!" Old Master Zhang gritted his teeth and shook off Zhang Shidao's hand.
"Go ahead. The trial is over. Behave well while serving your sentence and try to get your sentence reduced."
Zhang Shidao slumped to the ground, unable to believe that he would end up in jail.
All of this is Xin Jingli’s fault!
"Dad, I can go to jail, but give me some time, just a little bit. I'll set up the situation first and then go in."
-
Not long after, the trial of Zhang Shidao's attempted murder case was announced, causing a lot of sighs on the Internet.
When he bought the property, I even drank the coffee he gave me. I thought the Zhang family's evil deeds were limited to their rivals in East City, but I never expected they would actually target an innocent girl.
[Serves him right. He dodged so many cameras and used so many cars just to force a girl into a desperate situation. What's the grudge?]
[The law is strict and there is no loophole. I'm more concerned about whether the Zhang family will retaliate against that Xin Jingli in the future.]
[By the way, who is that Xin Jingli? I've been hearing about this name ever since this happened, but why haven't I seen any photos of him?]
"It's fine if there aren't any photos. Why are you so obsessed with finding photos of the victims? Photos of the perpetrators should be released! I urge everyone to stop being curious about Xin Jingli's appearance! If the photos are leaked, wouldn't it be easier for the Zhang family to retaliate against her?"
[I agree! The girl has refused the interview until now, which means she doesn't want to be on camera. There's no need to keep wondering what she looks like!]
[I hate it when people keep asking what the victim looks like. Wouldn't it be better to just scold the perpetrator? Are you afraid to scold Zhang Shidao because you're worried about the Zhang family's power? You're just bullying the weak and afraid of the strong!]
…
On this side, Xin Jingli had just finished a short nap and was sitting on the sofa in the living room to wake up.
The sunlight was still strong as evening approached, shining through the floor-to-ceiling windows and onto her beautiful, slightly curly long hair.
Jingyun came out of the kitchen carrying cake and coffee. In the soft light, he was wearing a white suit, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. His eyes were handsome and gentle, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
He walked to her side, bent down, and gently placed the cake and coffee on the table beside her. He then walked to the back of the sofa, placed his hands on her temples, and gently rubbed them for her.
All the movements were done with ease and had been repeated many times.
"Don't take a nap too long next time. Your head hurts again, right?" Jingyun asked softly.
"A little bit," she replied.
During this period, Xin Jingli has become accustomed to Jingyun's care. From taking care of her three meals a day to giving her back massage, his skills seem to be increasing.
At the same time, Qin Qing happened to come back from outside.
The man had a handsome face, his upturned eyes were stimulated by the afternoon sun, his half-closed eyes were full of rebelliousness, and his T-shirt swaying in the wind looked free and unrestrained.
During this period, he also went to many places for her just to get her a modified car.
But when he saw this scene, he put away the natural thorns on his face, ran to her and squatted down, handed her the coffee prepared by Jingyun, and knocked on her legs with his half-clenched fists.
"What's wrong? Didn't you sleep well?" Qin Qing narrowed his eyes and asked softly.
"Maybe, there have been too many things going on recently."
Qin Qing: "Is there anything else? Just let me do it."
Jingyun: "Yes, I can too. Is it for the company? Or something else?"
Qin Qing: "Did the Zhang family contact you again?"
Jing Yun: "No way, I remember Xi Jiyu and Tan Jingfan had almost crushed the Zhang family, and they didn't even have a chance to reconcile with you."
Qin Qing: "Is there anything else?"
It is obvious that Qin Qing and Jingyun are in a competitive relationship, and they should dislike each other now, but since becoming bootlickers, Xin Jingli has not felt a trace of tension between them. Instead, they are busy with their own things and take care of her wholeheartedly.
Just like now, they didn't care about each other's existence, they only cared about where she was troubled.
"No, I just didn't sleep on the pillow."
It was nothing serious. She was simply too sleepy when she leaned against the headboard, and her pillow moved away after she fell asleep, causing her to have a stiff neck. That's all.
Jingyun, however, sounded as if he had just heard some shocking news. "The pillow isn't suitable?! I'll go change it for you right away!"
Qin Qing stood up and said, "I'll go take a look too. I know more about it."
The two of them walked upstairs side by side in harmony.
Xin Jingli: ...
The phone vibrates, it's a WeChat message.
I picked it up and saw it was a message from the [Chenhong No. 6 Family] group:
Xi Jiyu: [Master, all the formalities have been completed. Do we need to announce it now?]
Ling Yao: [The band has recently become a top-tier band, so we can reserve some time. Master, do you need any product endorsements?]
Xu Zhanyan: [The defense system has already been handed over to Xi Jiyu and Xi Yahe. Master, I can transfer it at any time.]
…
It has been a while since the incident. During this period, the property she purchased has long been handed over, and the investment company is now fully represented by Xi Jiyu.
She originally thought that she would need her super-rich system card to start a company, but unexpectedly, the Jiyue band suddenly soared recently. The dividends she earned from her investment in the Jiyue band alone were enough to cover the company's expenses.
The entertainment industry really makes money quickly, Xin Jingli couldn't help but sigh.
Xin Jingli: [Don't worry, I'll go to the company tonight and check it out. We'll announce the company's affairs after the Zhang family's hype dies down.]
Xi Jiyu: [Okay.]
Xu Zhanyan: [Yes.]
Ling Yao: [Yes.]
…
The others also echoed in a friendly manner.
This group, from the moment Xin Jingli opened her eyes and formed the group, has been exactly like the name of the group, loving and caring for each other.
Sometimes Xin Jingli felt that it was a bit fake, but she couldn't tell where it was fake. It seemed that they shouldn't be so harmonious. Being too harmonious made her lose some of the joy of watching the fun.
In fact, on the other side, the eight people were not harmonious at all.
As soon as Qin Qing and Jingyun entered the room and closed the door, the corners of their mouths, which had been raised all the time, instantly flattened. Their eyebrows and eyes were full of vigilance against the enemy, and their voices no longer had a gentle tone.
"I advise you to stop here. It's very troublesome to stay here every day." Jingyun said as he walked to the bed and picked up the pillow.
"Hehe, I think you are the one who is in the way." Qin Qing refused to admit defeat. He walked to the other side of the bed and pulled the other side of the pillow.
Neither of them was willing to give in. They looked at each other, their eyes filled with cold hatred.
Jingyun said disdainfully: "I am responsible for her three meals a day, and you are just a driver. I can also take over, so please don't get in the way here."
Qin Qing sneered, "You're just one of her cooks. Knowing that you can replace me, she still kept me. What does that mean? It means that you are the superfluous one."
Jingyun clenched his fists and tugged at the pillow. "There's no point in making excuses. We're brothers, and I don't want to make things too awkward."
Qin Qing still held on tightly, refusing to let go. "Yes, we are brothers. I hope you can have some self-awareness and withdraw from the matter between her and me."
Seeing that persuasion was of no use, the two men looked at each other, and their hatred became more and more obvious.
In a moment, the two of them threw away the pillows tacitly and grabbed each other's collars.
"Qin Qing! It was obviously me who knew her first! Do you have any sense of shame? You are a champion racing driver, and you are a mistress here?" Jingyun used all his strength and punched Qin Qing in the cheek.
Qin Qing staggered, and a faint bruise appeared at the corner of his mouth. He wiped the blood, turned around, rushed forward and punched Jingyun in the corner of his mouth.
"Mistress? Talking about first come, first served in relationships with me? You're the shameless mistress!"
Neither of them was willing to give in, and they quickly started fighting.
The man's expensive custom-made white shirt was wrinkled and his vest was torn.
Their meticulously crafted hair was completely disheveled, and their watches were knocked flying.
As they were arguing, both of their cell phones rang at the same time.
I picked it up and saw that it was a message sent by Xin Jingli in the group.
@Jingyun@Qinqing, I want to have some home-cooked food for dinner tonight. What about you? 】
In an instant, Jingyun and Qin Qing jumped away, each picked up their phone and replied in the group.
Jingyun: [Sure, I can make home-cooked dishes too. Feel free to order anything else. @秦晴, I'm pretty good at cooking anything you've tried.]
Qin Qing: [Yes, I can prove that he is a very good cook. Let's eat home-cooked food. I also love home-cooked food.]
After sending it, the two of them looked at each other, couldn't help rolling their eyes, and tacitly called each other a mistress.
There were still traces of fighting on their faces.
