Chapter 2285: Don’t Scare Yourself

Who would have known that every dog would have its day? The playing piece that had originally been meant to help him had become his obstacle now.

No matter how much Qiao Zijin loved money, she was still a woman. Knowing that there was something more to Chen Jun, Qiao Zijin changed her stance right away. “Is that so? You don’t have anything to tell me? Then, it seems like there’s no way I can help you with this matter either. Qiao Nan has a fiery temper and it’s not easy to convince her in the first place. Now, you’re even doing this? Fine. I don’t want the five million yuan anymore. You can wait to go to court with Qiao Nan. Don’t think that I’m scaring you. The cost of living in the capital is really too high. Since I can’t help you and get your money, I’m going to buy a bus ticket and return to Ping Cheng tomorrow.”

Qiao Zijin was truly infuriated this time. She could no longer stand how Wang Yang had done such dirty tricks behind her back. Now, not only had she spent unnecessary money with nothing to gain, but she had even completely offended her mother, Ding Jiayi.

It seemed better not to collaborate with such an uncooperative partner like Wang Yang.

Qiao Zijin was extremely selfish and hoped that everyone was worse off than she was. She was sure that Wang Yang would never have anything to do with the Zhu family’s assets since she couldn’t get her five million yuan either. In comparison, Wang Yang would lose several times of what she had lost. Although it pained her, Wang Yang’s loss would probably be much more painful.

Qiao Zijin was at ease knowing that Wang Yang would be more miserable than her.

“I really need the five million yuan. With it, I’ll be able to live a comfortable life. But don’t forget that I’m the Qiao family’s daughter. As long as Qiao Nan’s willing to support my parents, I’ll definitely benefit from it. If I don’t get the five million yuan, I’ll simply return to my parents and ride on their laurels. I’m leaving tomorrow. When that time comes, even fifty million won’t be enough to keep me here. Once the court passes a judgment, it’ll be too late for anyone to try to convince Qiao Nan. You’ll have to lodge an appeal to freeze those assets. I’m telling you that it won’t work.”

Qiao Zijin was no fool. In order to earn the five million yuan, Qiao Zijin had done her homework and analyzed Qiao Nan’s and Wang Yang’s chances of winning while she had still been in Ping Cheng. “Yes, after you freeze those assets, Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng won’t be able to touch them. But you won’t either. I’m sorry, but the Wang family isn’t in as high a position as the Zhai family. In fact, Zhai Sheng’s miles ahead of you. The Zhu family’s assets are just small change to Zhai Sheng, but they’re like your entire life. Even if the Zhu family’s assets are frozen, Zhai Sheng will continue to live a comfortable life. You, on the other, won’t. I’m sure you know deep down in your heart whether I’m making empty threats. Alright, I’m not going to waste any more money talking to you. You’d better take good care of yourself. I’m going to book myself a ticket back to Ping Cheng now.”

Everyone had their own taboos, and for Qiao Zijin, it was Chen Jun and Chen Feng. Unfortunately, Wang Yang had brought both of them into the conversation. Chen Feng was Chen Jun’s son. If Chen Jun had really offended Qiao Nan, there was no way Zhai Sheng would let Chen Jun off since he was Qiao Nan’s husband.

Once Chen Jun was down on luck, would Chen Feng still be able to enjoy a good life as his son?

She had to find out what had taken place in the past that had angered Qiao Nan so badly. And how was Chen Jun involved in it? Only then would she be able to gauge how badly Zhai Sheng would deal with Chen Jun.

Initially, Qiao Zijin had been intending on lessening Chen Feng’s burden with the five million yuan. In fact, she was even planning on leaving him some money after she had spent enough on herself. That way, she would have fulfilled her duties as a mother.

Who would have expected Qiao Nan to bring up such an old grudge out of the blue, confusing her? If there was really a problem, not only would she have to return to Ping Cheng, but she would even have to consider taking Chen Feng from Chen Jun. Otherwise, Chen Feng might very well be implicated if Zhai Sheng decided to take revenge on Chen Jun in the future.

Perhaps, she could look for Chen Jun for him to explain the matter to her. She still had time to arrange everything for Chen Feng before Zhai Sheng did anything. Otherwise, if Zhai Sheng were to catch Chen Jun off guard, the entire Chen family might be ruined in Zhai Sheng’s hands.

When it came to Chen Feng’s interests, Qiao Zijin had no more time to worry about the five million yuan. Without waiting for Wang Yang to respond, Qiao Zijin immediately hung up. She had intended on calling Chen Jun.

Since this matter involved Chen Jun, and Wang Yang refused to tell her anything, Chen Jun had better spill the beans. Unfortunately, Chen Jun had changed his phone number after moving away, and he had never given his new number to Qiao Zijin. As such, there was no way of contacting Chen Jun even if she wanted to.

In that moment, Qiao Zijin had no idea what she could do apart from booking herself a ticket back to Ping Cheng.

After Qiao Zijin had hung up on him, Wang Yang was more in a panic than being angry. If it was really just Qiao Zijin lying to him, there was no need for Wang Yang to worry. But what if Qiao Zijin was telling the truth? That would be a huge problem.

In order to get the Zhu family’s assets, Wang Yang had done too many things and had committed too many crimes. Even though Qiao Zijin had only mentioned Chen Jun, Wang Yang couldn’t help but worry about how much Qiao Nan actually knew. Besides, how had Qiao Nan found out about it? If Qiao Nan knew about it, did Zhai Sheng know about it too?

Thinking about Zhu Chengqi’s abnormal behavior as well as his will, Wang Yang was flustered. Just knowing that Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng knew about all these was enough to scare Wang Yang. Wang Yang was scared out of his wits by the possibility that Zhu Chengqi had already known about this too, even though he was now dead.

“Dear, why do you look so pale? Are you feeling unwell? Are you too anxious? We still have a few days before the court date. I think Qiao Zijin should know Qiao Nan’s weaknesses and should have a way of dealing with her. We won’t necessarily lose this lawsuit. Don’t worry or think too much about it. Don’t scare yourself.”

Li Yayan knew that it was practically impossible for her to get that sum of money given Qiao Nan’s attitude and response toward her.
