Chapter 151: Unmasking the Lie
Being held in Zhan Yanxun's arms made Jiang Qianhui feel uncomfortable all over, and her eyes were full of warning.
But some people just pretend not to see it and only want to maintain their "good man" persona.
After hearing Zhan Yanxun's words, Yang Huirong said to Qiao Weiwei, "You've understood what my son-in-law said, so don't have any more wishful thinking. And don't try anything funny, or don't blame me for being impolite."
Qiao Weiwei's face turned green from the rebuke, but she lowered her head and pretended to be pitiful, saying, "Madam Jiang, I know that I am of lowly status. People like you who are in high society look down on me. How could I dare to have any wishful thinking?"
“You’re wrong to say that. It’s not about being of low status. It’s about my son-in-law being a married man. Knowing that the other party is a married man, he still keeps trying to get close to her. That’s being a mistress knowingly.”
Yang Huirong retorted without hesitation, and Jiang Qianhui thought to herself, "As expected, her mother wasn't fooled by her."
Qiao Weiwei said pitifully, "Madam Jiang, you've misunderstood me. I've never had any improper thoughts."
Old Master Qin said seriously, "Whether it's a misunderstanding or not is not important. The most important thing is that Jiang Qianhui will be my daughter and the heir of our Qin family in the future. Anyone who makes him unhappy is going against me."
As Old Qin spoke, his sharp gaze swept over Xie Qingyi, Yan Lan, and Qiao Weiwei, clearly indicating that he was speaking to them.
Xie Qingyi's face also turned ugly. How could she not understand that Old Qin was giving them a warning?
Jiang Qianhui is so lucky!
"Chisui, come with me to see that wretched boy!"
……
Police station.
Accompanied by Qin Lao, Jiang Qianhui went to see the instigator, Lao Zhu.
When the police tried to arrest him, Lao Zhu resisted fiercely and even ran over a policeman with his car.
Despite his struggles, he was arrested by the police.
"Let me out! You have no right to arrest me. I didn't do anything, so what right do you have to arrest me?"
"You are suspected of a kidnapping and murder case. You won't be released just because you shout."
Despite being subjected to torture by the police, Lao Zhu refused to confess.
“I don’t know anything about kidnapping and murder. I want to see my lawyer, and I’m telling you, you’d better let me go. I’m one of Old Qin’s men; you can’t afford to offend me.”
At this moment, Old Zhu was still thinking of using Old Qin's influence to threaten the police.
A deep voice could be heard.
“Old Zhu, you can’t be so arrogant in the police station. I, Qin, don’t have the face to obstruct the police.”
When Old Zhu saw Old Qin, he hurriedly knelt down: "Old Qin, you've come to save me! I knew you wouldn't abandon me. These policemen arrested me here for no reason; they really don't respect you."
Old Zhu figured that as long as the mine hadn't been mined, Old Qin would still trust him. He needed to seize the opportunity to get Old Qin to help him get out of country A as soon as possible.
Old Qin said with a gloomy look in his eyes, "Old Zhu, do you think I'm easier to fool now that my eyesight is failing?"
"Old Qin, I've followed you for most of my life. I've never done anything to wrong you. I don't know what's going on. Someone must be trying to frame me and sow discord between us."
"Old Zhu, am I the one you're talking about who framed you?"
Because of a foot injury, Jiang Qianhui appeared in a wheelchair.
Seeing Jiang Qianhui appear, Old Zhu gritted his teeth in hatred. He was just one step away from monopolizing the jadeite mine, but this clueless young girl ruined his plans.
"Miss Jiang, why are you in a wheelchair despite being injured? Did the police bring me here because of your injury?"
Jiang Qianhui sneered. She thought acting was only for scheming women, but she never expected that someone as big and burly as him would pretend to be stupid.
“The man you called to kidnap me has confessed. You ordered him to do it.”
"Miss Jiang, are you saying you were kidnapped? That was really dangerous. But it seems you only injured your leg, so you're lucky to be alive. But your kidnapping has nothing to do with me, since we have no grudge against each other. We only met once, how could I let you kidnap me? This is clearly a setup."
Old Zhu acted like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water, insisting on playing dumb. After all, Liu Bo and his children and wife were in his hands, and even if he were arrested, they would never dare to betray him.
If it weren't for Jiang Qianhui, who had Qin Lao start mining ahead of time and discover the priceless jadeite mine, we would have been in dire straits.
They were really fooled by Old Zhu. Just as he said, they had no grudges against each other and had only met once.
Old Qin frowned and said, "You've been by my side for decades, and I never realized you were such a heartless and treacherous person."
"Mr. Qin, this must be a misunderstanding. Give me some time, and I will figure out exactly how this happened. I will definitely give you an explanation."
Old Zhu spoke with such sincerity that even Old Qin's men couldn't help but plead for him.
"Old Qin, are you mistaken? Old Zhu doesn't seem to be lying. Is there some misunderstanding?"
Old Qin didn't speak, but his eyes were sharp. Jiang Qianhui looked at Old Zhu and said, "Old Zhu, with your calm demeanor, even if you were put on a lie detector, it would prove that you are innocent."
“Miss Jiang, I may be speaking harshly, but although we have only met once, you are far too arrogant. Perhaps that is why you have offended someone and are now being retaliated against. I just don’t know why this is being blamed on me.”
"Old Zhu, you're so calm because you have Liu Bo's wife and children in your hands. You're sure he won't dare to betray you, so you've decided to continue playing dumb, right?"
Hearing Jiang Qianhui's words, Old Zhu's heart skipped a beat. How did she know? The incident had only just occurred, and Liu Bo wouldn't implicate him. How did they find him so quickly?
"I don't know what you're talking about. I'm a law-abiding citizen. How could I imprison anyone's wife and children?"
"You didn't imprison him, but rather put him in the house you were monitoring under the pretense of helping the child. The plan was to use Liu Bo's wife and children as hostages to threaten him if he was arrested, until he confessed to all his crimes."
Although Jiang Qianhui had seen through all the plans, Lao Zhu still couldn't believe how she knew the whole truth in such a short time.
“Miss Jiang, I am an honest and upright person, and I really cannot do what you just said.”
Jiang Qianhui hadn't expected that Lao Zhu's psychological defenses were so strong.
However, no matter how strong one's mental defenses are, they will eventually crumble.
