The man asked, "Why did you transfer the money back again?"
The woman replied, "What do you know? Jiangcheng and Jiangbei Cultural Tourism are going to invest. A large sum of money will come in next. Compared to that, this ten million is just a drop in the bucket!"
The man complimented her, "You're impressive!"
With a flirtatious glance, the woman responded, "You're impressive too."
The scene shifted to the two sitting across from each other in a café.
"The financial seal and the legal representative's seal are no longer in your hands. The cooked duck has flown away!"
"My dad said that next we should get married and then divorce. He wants half of everything he has!"
"My dad also said that in Jiangcheng, he still has some influence. If it comes to it, he'll have my mom check if he's evading taxes! My mom said: Supporting a business is beyond her capability, but ruining a company is a piece of cake!"
The man was Cheng Huairen, and the woman was Jiang Xiaoli.
I cleared Jiang Xiaoli's things out of my house.
Her father, mother, and younger brother came over to cause a scene.
"It's all your fault behind the scenes! I'm going to sue you for extortion!" Her father, Jiang Zhihe, turned red with anger, veins bulging on his neck.
"If our Lili isn't doing well, you won't be doing well either! The the Jiang Family will wipe you out in no time!" Jiang Xiaoli's mother, resembling an angry gas canister, surprisingly managed to jump up, which was quite eye-opening for me.
"If anything happens to my sister, I'll skin you alive!" Her younger brother brandished a baseball bat at me, baring his teeth while smashing my television, refrigerator, washing machine, fish tank... into pieces.
He could smash whatever he wanted.
Seeing me not retaliate or stop him, the the Jiang Family members all joined in. Jiang Zhihe hit my head; Jiang Xiaoli's mother kicked my leg; they crashed into my waist...
I was overwhelmed by the three of them.
The heat from the wedding ceremony scandal had yet to cool down when news broke that "A renowned playwright from Jiangbei Province and celebrated cultural scholar, winner of the 'Five One Project' award was attacked at home!" surged to trending topics.
Hua Shi issued a statement in Beijing expressing "serious concern" over my situation.
My family's surveillance recorded everything.
Initially hoping to leverage their connections and influence, Cheng's family ultimately failed to make any waves.
In addition to compensating for my family's losses, I also filed a civil lawsuit for personal injury, emotional distress, and lost wages.
Three individuals were detained on charges of provoking trouble, intentional injury, and deliberately damaging public and private property.
Jiang Xiaoli came to find me, and as soon as she entered, she knelt down. "We’ve lived together for a while; please spare my family. We truly have no money left!"
No money? How could that be possible! In less than two years, Jiang Xiaoli had taken over six million from me under various pretenses. Besides, her family was well-off; they couldn't possibly be destitute!
"A mysterious person has been blackmailing us with a video of me and someone surnamed Cheng... in bed, demanding over nine million from both our families!"
Damn it, my target was six million, and that guy managed to extort so much more! If you do something wrong, you must pay the price. I would not accept her pleas.
Cheng Huairen was notorious in this industry. Previously, with my connections, everyone in Jiangcheng gave him face. But by betraying me, he essentially committed career suicide. His short video account was filled with insults directed at him.
Cheng and Jiang Xiaoli were childhood friends, a perfect match: a scheming woman paired with a lecherous man! Jiang Xiaoli fancied Cheng Huairen's pretty boy looks, while Cheng Huairen coveted Jiang Xiaoli's beauty. They had been entangled for years.
Jiang encountered me, a devoted admirer; she initially ignored my poverty but later coveted my success. The two of them, two families colluding together, plotted to take everything from me. But unfortunately for them, I returned early from Beijing that time and witnessed their sordid affair.
Aside from enticing Jiang Xiaoli to return the funds, I also reclaimed financial authority under the pretext of changing shareholders. Additionally, I hired a private investigator from the Underworld to gather evidence of Jiang Xiaoli and Cheng Huairen together and projected those explosive images onto a big screen during their engagement ceremony.
However, one thing I didn’t anticipate was that the amount we initially agreed upon to coerce Jiang Xiaoli and Cheng Huairen into "repurchasing" was six million. These two wanted to avoid public disgrace and were forced to comply due to the significant matters they had planned against me later on.
Little did I know that the "mysterious person" found it easy to make money and would come back for more, forcing both families to cough up over three million! Cheng Huairen could no longer survive in the industry; his parents faced disciplinary actions as well.
A useless man is just worthless no matter how handsome he is.
Jiang Xiaoli chose to sever ties with him completely. She turned back several times to confide in me, crying that she had been deceived by him and was also a victim. She begged for my forgiveness, hoping to restore our old friendship.
Go climb a tree! (The end)
