Chapter 47: Evil Worms and Fake Gold (End)
Chapter 47: Evil Worms and Fake Gold (End)
The four brothers felt that their kidnapping career had hit a snag today.
"No, there is none of what you said, and the person who asked us to kidnap you was not Li Yanchen!" The short man was still trying his best to argue and try to get away with it.
Lu Changqing sneered: "You have a strong sense of professional ethics and you know how to protect the privacy of your customers."
As soon as he finished speaking, he put the machete on the pickled meat and started sawing it like sawing wood.
There was a sharp pain in his crotch, and Fat Guang's head was so painful that he shouted out loud: "Ah! Stop, stop, stop! Give it to me!"
The fat man was so scared that he urinated, and the urine mixed with blood dripped onto the ground, and a foul smell filled the air.
"thing?"
"In my phone in the inside pocket of my leather jacket."
Fearing that the fat man would play tricks, Lu Changqing first disarmed both of his arms amid his screams, then he felt at ease to take out the cell phone from his pocket and unlocked it using the fat man's face.
As soon as Lu Changqing got the phone, he asked the system to scan it quickly. Sure enough, he found the recording of the private meeting and conversation between the two people, and the system saved it immediately.
It was difficult to hold the phone with the switchblade in his left hand, so Lu Changqing put the knife into the space and put the bloody machete on the fat man's neck again. "How did he give you the money? Cash or bank transaction?"
Because his body was in so much pain, the fat man's voice was shaking, "Cash."
"When? Where was the transaction made? How much money was promised to you? How much has been paid to you?"
The fat man took a deep breath and howled in pain.
Did not say?
Lu Changqing threw away her cell phone, grabbed the fat man's collar and lifted him up, then stabbed the machete into his thigh with her backhand. Blood spurted out along with the weapon she used to pull out the knife.
"XXXXX! You're looking for death!"
The three people on the opposite side were really shocked by Lu Changqing's operation, and they raised their knives to rush over and chop Lu Changqing.
"Don't move!" The fat man, feeling obvious pain in his chest, gritted his teeth and stopped the three people. The knife was already against the skin of his heart. Now he was sure that the woman next to him was serious.
"Are you willing to say it now?"
The fat man was in so much pain that cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He gritted his teeth and answered Lu Changqing's question in a halting manner, "On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the toilet cubicle of the corner bar on East Street was one million. Now I only give you two hundred thousand."
Lu Changqing: …
She really has a connection with the amount of one million. No, these people dare to kill people for one million?
"Did Li Yanchen instruct you?"
"Yes."
Lu Changqing was very satisfied with the fat man's answer, and whispered in his ear: "I am very satisfied with your cooperation. To reward you, I will let you suffer less later."
The room was pitch black, and the only sound he could hear was the man snoring on the bed. Li Yanchen, who had drunk a lot in the bar at night, felt someone patting his face. He was still drunk and covered his dizzy head. He opened his eyes dazedly, but everything was pitch black in front of him. He thought he was dreaming, so he cursed and turned over to go back to sleep.
Suddenly, a faint female voice came from beside me: "At this time, at this age, how can you sleep?"
Hearing the sound, Li Yanchen sobered up instantly, turned over, picked up the phone on the pillow, and hurriedly turned on the flashlight to shine towards the source of the sound.
"what--"
Seeing the woman standing beside the bed, Li Yanchen let out a high-pitched and sharp cry like a rooster with its throat strangled.
Unfortunately, the soundproofing in the house was too good, and people sleeping in other rooms couldn't hear his screams at all.
"Li Mianmian, are you a human or a ghost?" Li Yanchen was so scared that he shrank to the other end of the bed, fearing that Lu Changqing would take his life directly.
Lu Changqing grabbed one of Li Yanchen's ankles and pulled him towards himself, then pounced on him and stabbed him in the heart.
Li Yanchen's body began to twitch uncontrollably, the chest of his pajamas was soon soaked with blood, and his eyes were wide open, as if he was extremely afraid that he would not be able to see this world in the next moment.
Lu Changqing climbed onto the bed and stabbed him in the heart again. When he was dying, he leaned over to his ear and whispered, "Don't you want to know if I am a human or a ghost? You can find out if you go down and see for yourself."
The next day, Meng Ting didn't see Li Yanchen get up until noon. Concerned about her son's health, she knocked on Li Yanchen's bedroom door, but no one answered and the door was locked. She called Li Yanchen's cell phone but no one answered, so she asked her aunt to find the bedroom key and open the door.
As soon as the door was opened, the strong smell of blood stimulated people's nerves. Seeing the tragic scene in the room, Meng Ting fainted before he could even scream.
Li Qing held onto the door frame and watched the police carry the bodies of her sister and brother out of the bedroom. From the moment she received the call from home at the company until now when she saw her sister's body with her own eyes, she had a feeling that it was unreal.
Yesterday at breakfast, her sister was still chatting and laughing with her about work. In recent days, her sister has been working overtime until very late at night. She called her sister last night to ask when she would be back, and she said she was on her way and asked her to go to bed early. Everything was obviously the same as usual, so how come when she woke up, her sister was covered in blood and dead with her brother?
This was the first time that Li Qing accepted the death of a loved one. Before, she could not understand the heart-wrenching pain that others talked about, but now she seemed to feel the pain of having a piece of her heart dug out.
Her sister died and she has no sister anymore.
The police quickly found the bodies of the kidnappers and restored the truth of the case through the kidnapping recording in Lu Changqing's hands, the recording of the conversation when Li Yanchen was suspected of hiring a killer, and the call records in Li Yanchen's mobile phone.
The son of the family was resentful of the family's adopted daughter and hired someone to kill her. However, the kidnapper was killed instead of being killed. The adopted daughter went home and confronted her adoptive brother with a knife. The two sides had an argument and started fighting. The adopted daughter stabbed her adoptive brother to death and then committed suicide.
The Li couple could not accept the truth restored by the police for a while. They did not believe that their son would do such a thing as hiring a killer to kill someone, and they could not accept that the daughter they had raised for more than 20 years killed their only son.
Netizens are very curious about what the adopted daughter did to make the stupid son of the rich family go to such lengths to break the law to kill her. Some speculated that she was fighting for the family property, some speculated that she was fighting for her parents' love, and more people felt that the relationship between the two was not pure and that love turned into hate.
The public opinion on the Internet is very strange these days. Whenever there is a woman in a case, especially a young girl, there will always be people who will lead the public opinion to focus on the woman's love life.
The police quickly came out to refute the rumor, saying that the two deceased were only due to some disagreements over trivial family matters, which led to the tragedy, and they were not a couple as speculated on the Internet. Li Qing quickly adjusted her state of mind and arranged for the company's public relations team to refute the rumor on the official Weibo.
However, due to a revelation from a so-called insider, the entry about the wealthy Li family, where brothers and sisters are friendly and respectful, once again became a hot topic.
The insider claimed that the reason why the fake princess and the prince of the Li family were at odds with each other was because she was helping the real princess. The real princess wanted to be the crown princess, but the crown prince blocked her way, so she arranged for the fake princess to be her knife... He wrote a long and eloquent article, making it sound very serious, describing Li Qing as a villain who would do anything to achieve her goals and disregard family affection. Netizens also held a meeting in the comment section.
[Note: The following comments with “[ ]” are adapted from some real replies in a help post titled “What should I do if my youngest daughter wants the management rights of the group” on XiaoXshu. ]
[The real princess is very scheming and has many tricks. She is so greedy! ]
[Oh my god, having an older brother to take me to bed is what I have always dreamed of. I don’t want to work hard. I want to live a carefree life with my blood-related brother, doing what I am interested in. ]
[…This is the first time I have sympathized with my son on the Internet]
[It’s so funny. The adopted daughter they raised for more than 20 years and the biological daughter they brought back halfway killed their only son. The couple in Mr. Li’s family must be regretting it so much.]
[What is this real and fake princess thinking? Isn't it better to just lie down? Ask your father for some dividends, some real estate or shops that can be rented out, it's best to give you money and do nothing. The economy has been so bad in recent years, and managing a company is not necessarily a good thing (a relative's relative's company has closed down, and he was imprisoned for economic crimes). In fact, being an ordinary person who only takes money is the least likely to go wrong.]
[As expected, women are the most vicious people in the world. The prince is so miserable. From another perspective, he is quite lucky to live to the age of 27.]
[I will go back and interrogate my sister and ask her if she dares to compete with me for the family property. If she dares, I will beat her in the face!]
[What are you pretending to be like upstairs? Are you returning the family property and the pots and pans at home?]
[What are these two sisters doing all day? They are dying from all this trouble. They really deserve it. It's a pity for the prince's son. When Mr. Li and his wife die in the future, there won't even be anyone to slam the pot for.]
[Poor old man Li and his son, the hard work of two generations. Now the Li family's company is really going to fall into the hands of outsiders. ]
[Some people in the comments are really -, what's wrong with the princess fighting for power? Her own father is not anxious, but you bunch of damn eunuchs are anxious.]
[The people above who cursed the princess are probably jealous. She has the opportunity to seize power, but you monsters don’t have any chance at all. You can only brainwash yourself and belittle others, hoping that she will be as incompetent and powerless as you.]
[Oh my god, I can't believe there are so many women in this. I say some of you women really shouldn't think too highly of yourselves. You even lie down and let your brother raise you. Your father despises you because you are a daughter and doesn't want to raise you, so your brother still wants to raise you? What are you dreaming about!]
……
Li Qing had no time to deal with online public opinion. On the one hand, she was in charge of the company's affairs, on the other hand, she had to assist the police in closing the case, and on the other hand, she had to take care of the physical and emotional health of two couples in her family.
She knew that what happened at home this time would affect the company, but she felt that the impact would not be significant because it was only a problem between family members, not a problem with the company's products or technology. Even if it would affect the company's reputation, it would only be temporary.
At Li Yanchen's funeral, both couples in the Li family cried heartbrokenly. Looking at their current appearance, Li Qing felt indescribably happy in her heart, the kind of happiness that comes from seeing the enemy's efforts go to waste while she is about to make a fortune.
When everything was almost settled, Li Qing applied for a sea burial service for her sister. No one else in the Li family was willing to attend, so she was the only one who went through the whole process.
Having gotten over the pain of losing their son, the Li couple began to actively repair their relationship with Li Qing. Li Qing did not reject the belated fatherly and motherly love.
She has endured it for so many years, and at this time she will not go against them. The company has not been handed over to her yet, and it would be stupid not to cooperate in acting.
When Li Qing was 27 years old, she was appointed as the CEO of Li Group by the board of directors. Seven years later, she finally took over the position of chairman of Li Group from her father. After twelve years since she entered the Li family company, she finally achieved her long-cherished goal and became the highest authority in Li Group.
Li's father had no choice but to give up power so early. He was diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer. It took less than four months from the discovery of the disease to his death. In the end, he did not live to be a hundred years old and enjoy Li Qing's blessing.
Lu Changqing looked at the mature woman in the video who had long lost her childishness. The Li family was managed in perfect order by her. She was not often in the company, and spent more time traveling, both at home and abroad, wherever she wanted to go.
Meng Ting went with Li Qing a few times, but later she stopped going because she disliked Li Qing's way of traveling, which was as hectic as going to war and was very tiring.
After so many years, Lu Changqing's impression of Meng Ting has changed a lot. She discovered the strength of this woman.
Although Meng Ting has relied on men and suffered humiliation for most of her life, there is no doubt that she does live a materially abundant life that many people envy.
Looking back at Meng Ting's life after marriage, she first relied on her husband. When her son grew up, she relied on her husband while watching her son. Then her son died, and she immediately shifted her focus to her daughter. Then her husband died, and she immediately clung to her daughter. She knew that her daughter didn't like her very much, but she still had the audacity to squeeze in.
She is indeed a dodder, and she cannot survive without a sense of dependence, but what are the survival characteristics of dodder? It is a parasite that relies on absorbing nutrients from others to feed itself. It is a very selfish plant and has a certain degree of aggressiveness, which is much better than those who sacrifice themselves for men.
Lu Changqing suddenly thought of another heroine in the world, Le Xiaoxiao. She quickly browsed through her life and found that she was not simple either.
After sleeping with the male lead in the hotel, she deliberately left clues for him to find her. She pretended to be innocent and weak in front of the male lead, and controlled the male lead with her looks and belly. Not only did she marry into a wealthy family, but she also completely got rid of Cheng Yang's entanglement. After confinement, she quickly joined the male lead's company, and worked her way up from the lowest administrative assistant to the general assistant with her connections and abilities.
Perhaps the beautiful fairy tales all stop at the day when the hero and heroine get married. In the seventh year of their marriage, Gu Jingchen cheated on Le Xiaoxiao right under her nose with a pure and lovely young girl.
After mocking Gu Jingchen's loyalty in love, Le Xiaoxiao took the huge amount of divorce property and left the Gu family without looking back to start her own business.
During the years that Le Xiaoxiao worked at Gu's, she was not just wasting time. With the advice and help of her friends, she registered a gaming company. It took her five years to grow her company from a small one with a dozen employees to a mobile game development company with a monthly turnover of over 100 million yuan.
Li Qing and Le Xiaoxiao both accumulated their initial wealth from men, one from her father and the other from her ex-husband. Without these two men, their path to success might not be as easy as it is now.
Lu Changqing was suddenly stunned when he thought of this. The man's success relied on his biological father, adulterous father, godfather, the bride's biological mother and godmother. Has he reflected on this?
People never reflect on themselves!
Then why is she reflecting on the woman's behalf here?
Lu Changqing despised himself in his heart for a minute, then turned off the video and let the system send the next lucky lady.
