Everyone understood that this was coming...
"I originally planned to hand over so matters to the authorities, but thinking about it, it’s better to handle matters within our circle behind closed doors. To lose face, let it be in front of family. Do any of you think this idea is wrong?"
Even though they didn’t know what was happening, who would raise objections to these words? Even if they usually didn’t get along, at tis like this, who would be foolish enough to offend people?
Zhang Guoqing was secretly pleased as he looked at the approving expressions: "Next, let my wife say a few words."
This unexpected twist left everyone stunned for a mont, then they erupted in laughter. Everyone understood how much Zhang Guoqing cherished his wife, but they didn’t expect him to bring her out in such a situation.
Of course, most had these thoughts, but a few who woke up in the laughter realized this matter should be related to the Zhou Family, and since Zhang Guoqing was the son-in-law, there were things he couldn’t intervene in.
Fang Fei instantly perked up, staring intently at Zhou Jiao, who stood up and walked out. He knew very well the power of this woman and wondered which fool had offended her.
Since that year, he hadn’t seen Zhou Jiao get angry again; she always played the role of a gentle, kind bunny behind the crowd.
Mr. Wu glanced at his clothes being tugged by Fang Fei, frowned slightly, then looked up at Zhou Jiao walking in the courtyard, eyes flashing with surprise.
He thoughtfully glanced at Fang Fei, seeing him nervously watching Zhou Jiao, then looked at Zhang Guoqing, who was calm, and smiled. Interesting, truly interesting...
Over there, Zhou Jiao, holding a cup, slowly walked towards Liang Jiajun’s table.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, she raised her wine glass, her clear voice echoed: "Everyone, today Zhou Jiao is disrespectful, I’ll toast first with water instead of tea."
"Sister, quickly tell us what happened?"
"Scared ! Which bastard did sothing wrong quickly stand up."
"Shh, don’t make noise."
Zhou Jiao ignored these words.
She continued towards Liang Jiajun’s table, looked at him, and asked in a deep voice, "Brother Liang, today in front of so many brothers and sisters, I ask you a question."
Liang Jiajun’s heart had been pounding since she approached. At this point, as soon as she spoke, his mind went blank. It’s over, the Zhou Family actually knows everything.
"What did my little sister do to offend you?" Zhou Jiao said with a stern face, imposing like a father, eyes staring straight at him. "Is there anything that can’t be done face-to-face?"
Liang Jiajun racked his brain quickly, shaking his hand repeatedly: "Sister, did you misunderstand? Even if I offend soone, I dare not offend you!"
"At this point, you still don’t admit it? Brother Liang, I am very disappointed. Yesterday I saw the confession, and I thought it impossible, isn’t everyone in our circle straightforward?"
"You sent people to dig up the Gu family’s estate for more than a month, was there a treasure? Is the next target to dig up the Gu family’s ancestral grave? Even kidnap and extort my family, insisting there’s a nonexistent treasure na?"
"Your Liang Family claims to be a prestigious family, how can you resort to such despicable actions? On the surface, you interact well with our Zhou Family, but secretly use all kinds of ans. Is this a prestigious family? Is this the Liang family’s conduct?"
Liang Jiajun was forced to stand up by her string of words, pointing at Zhou Jiao: "Stop spewing lies! What treasure? Would my Liang family care for that dead man’s wealth?"
Zhou Jiao coldly clapped twice: "Good, good, very good. Today, I will let everyone see if I’m speaking nonsense or not."
Liang Jiajun kicked away the chair, cursed while turning around: "Madwoman! She’s absolutely mad! I can’t provoke her, but I can always avoid her!"
Zhou Jiao watched his back coldly, "Those five people are with , try taking a step!"
Liang Jiajun heard the words and imdiately turned to glare at her.
Zhou Jiao glanced at him, her eyes shifting to the five people being led over, then turned to him with a sarcastic smile, "Want to confirm again?"
Liang Jiajun’s face turned pale upon seeing the five people being brought over in white and blue uniforms.
Zhou Jiao glanced around at the silent crowd, sighed sadly, and said, "These five spit out the truth after biting each other; you paid them heavily to excavate the Gu family’s treasure.
Honestly, I didn’t care because there’s no Gu family treasure. My grandmother personally donated such a large sum, anyone reasonable could guess what it’s about.
Your Liang family likes to dig, go ahead. Just say a word and I would have helped. How big a deal is it? Yet you have to act in the dead of night?
Your Liang family lack money?
In Beijing, whose family lacks money? It’s impossible for the Liang family to lack money. You’ve accumulated so much wealth over generations, nobody knows. Not counting your ancestors, since your great grandfather’s generation, was it really donated clean?
No matter how greedy you are, I can’t interfere, but you shouldn’t do evil completely. On the surface, laughingly interacting with our family, secretly not only hiring people to dig the Gu family but also contacting Lin family’s daughter-in-law, Jiang Jiangyu, trying to fra and bla my Zhou Family.
I want to ask, if my Zhou Family falls, is the next step to imprison my family, torture them for the so-called Gu family treasure?
The wealth from the Ming Country period isn’t enough for the Liang family to enjoy prosperity?"
With words like these, how couldn’t Liang Jiajun refute?
He shouted excitedly, speaking incoherently: "Framing, framing our Liang family, how can you Zhou Family have the heart? You Zhou Family are guilty of being thieves, shouting thief, don’t think your dad’s high position allows you to fra us easily."
Zhou Jiao furrowed her brows, shook her head: "My dad has a high position? You joke? Even your aunt, such a big figure, doesn’t dare say she has a high position."
After speaking, looking at his nearly insane deanor, at the crowd watching the show with enthusiasm, she suddenly lost interest, why bother?
She beckoned with her hand, took her handbag from the serving staff beside her, raised the letter and the confessions of the five people to Liang Jiajun.
"Considering the relationship between Zhou and Liang Families, this ti I chose to handle it within the circle. If there’s a next ti, don’t bla for playing the fish with the net."
Liang Jiajun was furious. Today, so many gathered, what’s the difference between inside or outside the circle?
"Let this matter end here, take the five people back to deal with them. Of course, just in case, I’ll keep their confessions.
I’ll consider today’s drink your apology. Brother Liang, considering past relations, a sister advises you. Cherish the good days in front of you!"
Over there, Fang Fei watched amazed as Zhou Jiao walked up. This seems sowhat anticlimactic, not aligning with that girl’s nature. He subconsciously looked at Zhang Guoqing.
By this ti, Zhang Guoqing stood up, not losing his courtesy, said polite words, bid everyone goodbye, and walked to et his wife.
Beside him, several of Mr. Wu’s companions exchanged looks, their eyes holding unclear anings as they quickly followed the couple out of the private hall.
Fang Fei, following their steps, walked out a distance, turned to look at Liang Jiajun kicking chairs in the courtyard, shook his head. This fool still has the mood to get angry!
The depth charge thrown today, as each scion returns ho to report, suddenly beca peaceful, while the undercurrents gather below, just waiting for the day the storm erupts.
So learn from it, so plot again. People die for wealth, birds die for food. So always seek fa and fortune, walking the path of history.
