Chapter 179
Qin Xiang didn't expect Ge Lijuan to find Miao Sheng so quickly, and couldn't help but be curious about Ge Lijuan's attitude, "What did she say?"
Miao Sheng didn't dare to hide it, "The old lady said that she would not be involved in this matter anymore, as long as no one died."
Qin Xiang was stunned when she heard it. She didn't expect Ge Lijuan to have such an attitude. Maybe she underestimated the old lady's feelings for Meng Huaiqing.
Then Qin Xiang told Miao Sheng what Meng Huaiqing meant, and Miao Sheng said that he understood, "Don't worry, since the old lady doesn't care, then we won't be polite."
Qin Xiang smiled, "Then I'll wait to see the newspaper."
After hanging up the phone, Qin Xiang couldn't help but look forward to it, but she didn't know what privacy the young masters of the Jiang family would be exposed.
These things are like this, you can't blame me for being unjust if you are unkind, Meng Huaiqing is hers now.
Two days later, Miao Sheng came back from Hong Kong City. In the ward, he took out a stack of newspapers from his bag and placed them in front of Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing. "Ms. Qin, Mr., it's all here."
Hong Kong City's newspaper industry is now well developed, and there are countless tabloids. Qin Xiang knew at a glance that there were quite a few.
She picked up a newspaper at random, found the most conspicuous position, and couldn't help laughing when she saw the title.
"Surprise! The second young master of the Jiang family is actually a gay."
Looking at the content again, it detailed the situation of the second young master of the Jiang family fooling around with a man in his thirties in a nightclub. The other party's name and work unit were clearly written. To prove that this was true, there was also a photo of the second young master of the Jiang family and the man kissing each other on the side of the road.
Looking at other tabloids, they also wrote about this matter.
Miao Sheng explained, "If we release all of them at once, it will inevitably distract everyone's attention. It's better to release them bit by bit. If this piece of news has little impact, when everyone is about to forget, we can release another piece to wake everyone's memory."
Qin Xiang couldn't help laughing when she heard it, "Miao Sheng, you are so bad."
Miao Sheng smiled slightly, "Thank you Miss Qin for the compliment."
He was grateful to the old lady for taking him back, but he also grew up with Meng Huaiqing, and the relationship was naturally incomparable to others. Miao Sheng also knew that his future prospects depended on Meng Huaiqing, so how could he not stand on Meng Huaiqing's side.
After he finished all this, he hurried to Yangcheng, with the purpose of preventing the Jiang family from finding him. As for the fact that the Jiang family would go to find the old lady, he couldn't control it, and they had to dare to go.
Miao Sheng finished talking about this and went out. Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing leaned against each other and flipped through the newspapers.
Qin Xiang couldn't help but sigh, "Hong Kong City is really willing to report these."
Although the Hong Kong City media industry is no longer as glorious as it was in the 1980s and 1990s, the nature of paparazzi makes people never tired of talking about it.
These news are in a conspicuous place, and it is estimated that it is difficult for the Jiang family to suppress it.
Even if it is clarified later, it is powerless. The photos are too conspicuous. Not only is it a tongue kiss, but the hands of the two are also dishonest. It is clear at a glance what they are doing.
Qin Xiang couldn't help but look at Meng Huaiqing, "You have prepared everything."
Meng Huaiqing smiled frankly, "As long as there is money, there will be private detectives willing to do things for me. Similarly, as long as the Jiang family is willing to pay, there will naturally be private detectives who will follow me and catch me."
"Then what privacy do you worry about being caught, Mr. Meng?"
Meng Huaiqing said seriously, "If you mind our relationship being exposed to others, then this is my handle. If you don't care, then I have no handle to worry about being caught."
This is throwing the choice to Qin Xiang. Not caring means that it is possible that their relationship will be known to the entire Hong Kong city.
Qin Xiang rubbed the newspaper in his hand with his fingers, thinking about this incident, "If everyone is arrested, it shouldn't be known to anyone, right? After all, the paparazzi in Hong Kong can't come to the mainland."
Meng Huaiqing nodded, "Of course."
For him, he wanted to tell the world that the two of them were in a relationship, but Qin Xiang was in trouble, and Meng Huaiqing didn't want to challenge Qin Xiang's bottom line.
At this time, the investigation of the Public Security Bureau was almost complete.
As they thought, this was a conspiracy. The two drivers who drove the car and hit people were both locals in Guangzhou. They had criminal records. They even committed crimes again not long after they came out of prison. However,
after a long interrogation, they only knew that they were paid to do the job. As for the middleman who spent the money, he was dressed ordinary and spoke Cantonese. No one knew where he was from.
At this stage, there is no surveillance, and the turnover of personnel is high. Following the clues, they could not find even a ghost.
Later, the Public Security Bureau followed the clues of the two cars and finally stopped at a batch of auction records at the customs. However, the cars were also two years old, and the owners had already gone abroad.
So apart from the driver, there was no ghost of the mastermind behind the scenes.
The deputy director of the Public Security Bureau came to the hospital in person to talk to Meng Huaiqing about this matter, and said, "We will not close this case and will continue to pay attention to it, but this is all we can do for now."
In recent years, Guangzhou has developed rapidly, and people from all over the country have come to Guangzhou. The turnover of personnel is extremely high. It is useless to find such a person.
Meng Huaiqing invested in the construction in the mainland, but now something has happened but he has not been able to find the murderer behind the scenes. Even the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau feels guilty.
But the times are like this, and all the means of investigation can only rely on manual labor, and sometimes it is easy to fall into passivity.
Seeing the guilty look of the deputy director, Meng Huaiqing didn't want to push him too much, so he just comforted him, "This is not your fault. As for who is behind it, I also have some guesses. This matter can stop here for the time being."
After sending the people away, Qin Xiang asked doubtfully, "Do your brothers have such ability to do it perfectly?"
Meng Huaiqing smiled, "They don't have this ability, but their mother does."
So Meng Huaiqing gave Qin Xiang some popular science, "Now my stepmother, that is, his first wife , my mother's family has also developed in Hong Kong City in recent years and has gained considerable influence. My second brother's uncle is very capable, and my stepmother is also very scheming. She has caused a lot of trouble in recent years. If nothing unexpected happened to me, because my father wanted me to go back to take over, they panicked. She probably joined forces with the other three concubines to plan this matter. "
Qin Xiang was surprised, "That's really amazing."
They could be fighting for favors in the previous second, and in the next second they could unite to deal with the children of the first room. This is almost the same as the palace fighting in ancient times.
Meng Huaiqing smiled indifferently, "Yes, if I wasn't amazing, I wouldn't have been able to deceive grandma and keep me at home. "
Meng Huaiqing didn't want to recall these things. Now it was enough for him to know that they were the ones who did it.
"Just wait and see. Maybe the old man will come to me in person."
Qin Xiang raised an eyebrow. "Does he have the nerve to do that?"
Meng Huaiqing laughed. "Sometimes face is the least important thing."
Almost two days after he finished speaking, when Meng Huaiqing's wound healed well and he was about to be discharged from the hospital, Jiang Licheng called.
Miao Sheng looked very unhappy. He came in from outside with a mobile phone. "Sir, Mr. Jiang is looking for you. I hope you can go back to Gangcheng.
" Meng Huaiqing's eyes were cold. "I'm in the hospital."
Miao Sheng's scalp felt numb and he nodded. "Yes, but..."
"No buts." Qin Xiang helped Meng Huaiqing lie down, and said to Meng Huaiqing with a smile, "You are injured on the head, and the extent of the injury is unclear. The doctor said that you cannot be discharged from the hospital for the time being. Even if you are discharged, you need to rest and it is not suitable to move."
Miao Sheng understood and said hurriedly, "Yes, you can't go back to Gangcheng for the time being, and the government projects in the capital are also imminent. Even if you recover, you have to go to the capital. Compared with family affairs, official affairs must always come first."
Qin Xiang nodded with satisfaction, "That's true. Miao Sheng is worthy of being Mr. Meng's most proud assistant."
Miao Sheng smiled rarely, "I don't deserve Miss Qin's compliments. This is what I should do."
Seeing that Meng Huaiqing tacitly agreed to this matter, Miao Sheng nodded slightly and then went out to take care of it.
There is policy support for Hong Kong merchants to come to the mainland. If Jiang Licheng really wants to find Meng Huaiqing, he can come directly to the mainland. It depends on whether he has the nerve to come directly.
Meng Huaiqing looked at Qin Xiang and asked, "Miss Qin, can I still be discharged from the hospital?"
Qin Xiang blinked, "Of course, but not now."
It's just that he will not be discharged from the hospital during the day. At night, he discussed with the attending doctor and left the hospital under the cover of night. At the door of the hospital ward, Meng Huaiqing's bodyguards were still guarding in turns.
To the outside world, Meng Huaiqing was not discharged from the hospital.
In fact, he had already driven to the house that Meng Huaiqing had prepared before.
At this time, it was already mid-August, and school would start in another half a month.
Qin Xiang asked the doctor, and was told that the stitches on her head would be removed in a few days. She would need to rest in the future, but she was not unable to move. If possible, she hoped that Meng Huaiqing would go to the capital with her, and stay away from the crazy family in Gangcheng for the time being.
The only thing she was worried about was the affairs of Meng Huaiqing's company. After all, a technological dark horse that had emerged out of nowhere in Gangcheng would not be given up on.
Of course, Qin Xiang felt that the development of the mainland would surpass that of Gangcheng in the future, and the vastness of the mainland market was incomparable to that of Gangcheng. It all depended on how Meng Huaiqing handled it.
When they got home, they settled Meng Huaiqing in the master bedroom, which was well equipped with everything from bed sheets and quilt covers to slippers and socks. Moreover, they were all big brands that were only available in Gangcheng and even abroad.
Qin Xiang asked him, "You go to sleep first, I'll go make dinner."
Meng Huaiqing looked at her, "Let the chef come over to cook tomorrow."
But Qin Xiang refused, "You are still in the hospital now, so it's better not to make a fuss."
"We don't have to care so much about this." Meng Huaiqing took her hand and asked her to sit down, and said confidently, "Even if he knew that I had been discharged from the hospital, he couldn't do anything to me. Just like you thought, he couldn't bring himself to ask Da Lu to let me go back in person."
Qin Xiang understood when he said this, "Okay, then I will let the bodyguards withdraw tomorrow, but how do we solve their accommodation problem? I don't want to live under the same roof with bodyguards."
Meng Huaiqing smiled, "To be honest, the downstairs and upstairs are my properties, and they will find a suitable residence by themselves."
Qin Xiang was stunned. Okay, he is rich. There are six floors in a building, and the 234th floor have the same landlord. Brother Fang is definitely rich.
Because it was so sour, Qin Xiang raised his thumbs, "Boss Meng's move is really extraordinary."
Meng Huaiqing couldn't help laughing. In fact, he could also buy land and build a villa himself, so that the security issues would be easier to arrange. But living in such an environment also has its advantages. It is more worldly than living in a villa. And this worldly atmosphere is exactly what he yearns for, so he chose this place.
But it's a pity that Qin Xiang doesn't know his thoughts, otherwise it would be a pity.
Who would be willing to live in a large flat when there is a villa.
Meng Huaiqing said, "If the house has been given to you, you will have a place to stay when you come to Guangzhou in the future."
Then he said seriously, "But I hope you can call me in advance when you come to Guangzhou, so that I can take care of everything and arrange work early."
"Arrange your work and come to date me?" Qin Xiang couldn't help teasing.
Meng Huaiqing nodded, "Of course."
"There's a saying that a short separation is better than a new marriage. Dating again after separation will have a different mood. Don't you think so?"
His eyes were too frank, which made Qin Xiang seem to have ulterior motives. She raised her eyebrows, "Boss Meng is right."
She glanced at his head. The place where he had surgery was still wrapped in gauze. There was a long scar there. Fortunately, it was on the top of his head. If he recovered well, his hair could cover it. Otherwise, it would really disfigure him.
Qin Xiang went to make dinner. Meng Huaiqing moved a stool and sat at the door, leaning against the door frame to watch her busy. After a while, he spoke, "I feel that this scene is just like what happened before."
Qin Xiang did not turn his head, "You must have thought too much."
"It doesn't matter if you thought too much before, just don't think too much in the future." Meng Huaiqing said, "Such a day is really enjoyable, I wish there were more."
Qin Xiang paused, "Then you can consider being a housewife and wait for me to come back home every day."
"Not impossible." Meng Huaiqing couldn't help laughing after answering.
In fact, both of them knew that they were the same type of people, and they had their own plans and arrangements for their careers. They both pursued a successful career, and love could only take a back seat.
However, through this period of time, Qin Xiang also vaguely realized that Meng Huaiqing was more devoted and more careful in dealing with their relationship than she was, which led to Meng Huaiqing being too cautious in dealing with their relationship.
Qin Xiang did not expose their relationship, and could adjust in time when there were occasional conflicts. This was a very comfortable relationship.
Qin Xiang made a simple dinner, two dishes, one soup, and a pot of rice.
When the food was served, Qin Xiang poured a glass of water for the two of them, "Water instead of wine, to celebrate your discharge from the hospital."
No one could have thought that those bastards from the Jiang family would be so crazy that they would directly use two cars to ram each other. Everyone else was fine, but Meng Huaiqing had a head full of blood.
Meng Huaiqing was in a good mood and clinked his glass with hers, "Cheers."
The two chatted while eating, and Qin Xiang also talked about her plans, "I have just reached a cooperation with a small factory. Although a batch of goods has been shipped out in the past few days, I have to take advantage of my stay in Guangzhou to check the progress of the autumn and winter models."
Wu Gang's side was actually okay, she trusted him more, but the other companies that Guan Zhibin took them to visit had only temporarily signed agreements and had not yet fully supplied the goods. She still had to pick out the appropriate autumn and winter models and it would be best if they were shipped out as soon as possible.
Hearing this, Meng Huaiqing said, "I know the leader of the industrial park here. Do you need my help?"
Qin Xiang shook her head, "No, my stall is only so big now. The clothes supplied from Wu Gang's second clothing factory and Xiang Yanghong's three places can already account for most of the supply. The rest is just extra, it doesn't matter how much."
As for the future, if the cooperation is pleasant, Qin Xiang will definitely increase the purchase volume, otherwise she will not be idle. It all depends on the other party's attitude.
For Guan Zhibin, the cooperation between the two is also like this for the time being.
Although it's a pity, there is no banquet that will not end.
A meal, the two of them had a pleasant meal.
At this time, after the overwhelming tabloid publicity in the morning, the port city fell into an unprecedented bustle.
Jiang Licheng is actually a second-generation rich man. What is rare is that Jiang Licheng has shown good business talent since he was young. He followed his father to expand the Jiang family's industry and make it stronger. He also married the eldest daughter of the Meng family, making the Jiang family a top-tier wealthy family in Hong Kong.
Later, Jiang Licheng's father passed away, and Jiang Licheng took over the entire Jiang enterprise in a hurry. Jiang went through a period of lows due to the death of his father and almost went bankrupt. Later, with the help of the Meng family and Meng Huaiqing's mother Meng Xiangyi, Jiang propped up the Jiang family and secured its position as a wealthy family.
It was unexpected that when the Jiang family rose, the Meng family went downhill. After the death of the eldest daughter of the Meng family, Jiang Licheng's first wife, the Meng family fell into decline. Jiang Licheng quickly married a second wife, and then the second and third wives married one by one, and the family became prosperous.
The eldest son of the Jiang family changed his mother's surname, which caused a sensation in Hong Kong, but with the old lady in charge, it was finally left unresolved.
Even the Jiang family has not been without bad rumors over the years. Every time, the Jiang family can exert its money power and quickly suppress the matter before the report is published.
Unexpectedly, this time, multiple newspapers and media launched the report at the same time, and the Chunhui Newspaper of the Jiang family industry failed to respond. Almost all newspapers reported the scandal of the second son of the Jiang family. How could the Jiang family's mortal enemy, the Chen family, not get involved and have their newspapers put the news in the most prominent places and on TV.
Whether it was the upper class or the lower class, everyone was discussing that the second son of the Jiang family was gay.
The cooperation that the wives of the Jiang family's several families had originally reached because of Meng Huaiqing was instantly broken, and the third, fourth, and fifth families wanted to immediately draw a clear line with the second son of the Jiang family.
It was embarrassing.
There were paparazzi everywhere outside the Jiang family's mansion. Even though the Jiang family also had a newspaper industry and a large family, they could not stop the siege of hundreds of paparazzi.
Jiang Licheng wanted Meng Huaiqing to come back to discuss and clarify the matter.
However, Meng Huaiqing did not respond directly. When he heard Miao Sheng say that Meng Huaiqing had not been discharged from the hospital and was seriously injured, Jiang Licheng understood what Meng Huaiqing meant.
This time, they have a direct falling out. No matter what happens, whether you live or die.
Jiang Licheng was very angry.
None of his younger sons had any future, but this eldest son was capable, but he did not agree with his arrangements and turned a deaf ear to his orders.
He still holds a grudge against what happened in the past.
But his mother's death was not caused by him. He worked hard to support the company. Wasn't it for the sake of his family? As the eldest son of the Jiang family, he actually abandoned the surname Jiang and changed it to Meng, which made him ridiculed for a while.
Now he wants to call her back to take charge of the family business regardless of the past, but Huaiqing pushed the Jiang family to the forefront because of the stupid behavior of a woman with long hair and short knowledge.
In the morning, the Jiang family's stocks fell to the limit as soon as they opened, and the losses were countless.
Jiang Licheng was so angry that he threw the cup, picked up the whip, went out of the study and went straight to the second floor.
Jiang Licheng's wife Mao Xinhui was shocked when she saw this. She hurried over and hugged Jiang Licheng's arm. "Grandpa, now that it has happened, it will not help even if you beat him to death. Instead of beating him to vent your anger, you should discuss this matter with the eldest master as soon as possible and find out how to reduce the impact on the Jiang family. As long as we can reduce the impact and get over this matter, I will not stop you even if you want to beat him to death."
"As a family, we all prosper and we all suffer together. I just can't understand why he treats his own brother like this. It doesn't matter if he hates me, he just hates me for neglecting to take care of him back then. It's reasonable for him to hate me, but he is his own brother. Back then, Xiaoqiang always thought of the eldest brother for anything delicious. How could he bear it... and you are his father. He can hate me, but how can he hate you too? Doesn't he know that the reputation of the Jiang family is above all else?"
Mao Xinhui was heartbroken and extremely sincere, but she also pushed all the responsibility onto Meng Huaiqing, "He hates us, he hates all of us."
Jiang Licheng threw the whip to the ground angrily and turned back to the study.
"Miao Sheng, tell him that if he still recognizes me as his father, he should come back to handle this matter as soon as possible."
