The few people present widened their eyes, as if they did not expect Mu Qiannian to propose such a high price.
Chen Jia was about to speak when he saw Mu Qiannian frown.
“Wait.”
Chen Jia was secretly pleased. Could it be that she had given up? This kind of adopted daughter had never seen any money before. She really dared to speak up. Would she dare to take it?
“In view of your special situation, I can settle for a little less. I want One million, not a cent less.”
After Mu Qiannian finished speaking, she signed her name on the record.
The female police officer saw Chen Jia’s expression that looked like he was about to spit fire and hurriedly brought Mu Qiannian outside..
It was not that she was afraid that Mu Qiannian would be beaten up, but she was afraid that Mu Qiannian would make a move.
It was not worth it to make a move at the police station for that kind of b*stard who beat up women.
Pei Mingchen saw the door of the interrogation room open and hurriedly went up to welcome her.
The male police officer’s angry huff came from inside. “Sign your name.”
“No, I want to wait for my lawyer to come.”
Chen Jia stubbornly refused to cooperate. The male police officer had no choice but to force him out.
When he saw the two of them cuddling at the door, Chen Jia became angry again.
“Mu Qiannian, that promiscuous woman. You set me up before because of this man, right?”
Mu Qiannian rolled her eyes at him and affectionately caressed Pei Mingchen and his hand that was holding her waist.
“Weren’t you the one who slept with someone behind my back and was broadcasted live by me?”
That scene back then was really… disgusting.
At the mention of the live broadcast, Chen Jia’s face instantly turned black and red, and the veins on his forehead bulged.
“You… It’s all because of you. If it wasn’t for that live broadcast, I, I wouldn’t have…”
Sensing that everyone in the hall was looking in his direction, Chen Jia was unable to express his bitterness.
Chen Jia glared at Mu Qiannian as if he wanted to skin her, eat her flesh, and drink her blood!
Pei Mingchen blocked Mu Qiannian behind him and stared at Chen Jia with an unfriendly gaze.
Chen Jia gradually felt guilty. It was not because of Mu Qiannian, but Pei Mingchen.
He could clearly feel the man’s killing intent in front of him. It was uncontrollable killing intent.
Chen Jia subconsciously moved closer to the policewoman next to him. This time, the policewoman was also used to it.
From the beginning, she had wanted to beat this person up very much. Hence, she impolitely defended herself and pushed the man against the wall. Chen Jia was in a sorry state.
“Haha, how tragic!”
Mu Qiannian’s undisguised laughter rang out, closing Chen Jia’s eyes in despair.
Mu Qiannian raised her eyebrows and gave the policewoman an impressed look. The policewoman responded with a tacit understanding.
Mu Qiannian stood behind Pei Mingchen and put his hand on her waist intimately. She smiled and said to Chen Jia, “The compensation is one million yuan. Remember to be prepared when you go out tomorrow. My lawyer will come and talk to you.”
After saying that, Mu Qiannian left with Pei Mingchen proudly.
Chen Jia struggled in anger. The policewoman was not trained for nothing. When she saw him move, she used all her strength to push him against the wall again.
“It hurts, it hurts, be gentle!”
Chen Jia cried out in pain and did not dare to move again. After making sure that he would not cause any more trouble, the policewoman let him go.
She pointed at a cell not far away and said, “Go in.”
Chen Jia accepted his fate and went in. At this moment, Mu Qiannian, who had gotten into the car, could not help but burst into laughter.
“That policewoman is fun. Chen Jia is so miserable, it’s so enjoyable.”
As she spoke, she leaned back and lowered the chair.
Pei Mingchen saw the fine sweat on her forehead and turned the air conditioner up resolutely.
“I won’t let him have it easy. The money is too little.”
After Pei Mingchen finished speaking, some ruthlessness flashed across his eyes, which was unnoticed by Mu Qiannian.
Mu Qiannian, however, said nonchalantly, “I can’t touch Chen Jia for the time being. I might even use him to deal with Mu Wanwan.”
She turned to look at Pei Mingchen. “So, don’t make a move and don’t think about taking revenge for me. I think it’s about time we get a million yuan from him.”
Although Chen Jia was the Young Master of the Chen family, she received news that due to the live broadcast, the Chen family’s reputation had suffered and the Chen family’s shares had fallen again and again.
No matter what, it was just a piece of juicy news and the losses caused could still be salvaged.
However, the matter of Chen Jia disgracing the family could not be easily forgiven.
Hence, the Chen family cut off Chen Jia’s subsidiary card and even ordered all the property departments under the Chen family not to help.
Chen Jia was only relying on the little cash he had on hand to scurry around.
Perhaps, he did not even have a million dollars now.
He was just a beast who could not control his lower body.
How could Pei Mingchen not know? Moreover, he was the one who controlled the stock of the Chen Corporation.
It was only one million…
Pei Mingchen felt that it was too little, way too little…
Pei Mingchen thought of a good idea and smiled coldly.
“Oh right, I have something to discuss with you,” Pei Mingchen said.
Mu Qiannian looked at him curiously. “What is it?”
Pei Mingchen also laid down on the chair and said face to face, “I have already prepared the furniture for my house. Do you… Do you want to come and stay at my house?”
Eyes filled with expectation flashed to Mu Qiannian.
She was stunned for a moment and she did not give Pei Mingchen an answer right away.
However, Pei Mingchen’s eyes were already filled with disappointment. He asked again unwillingly, “Do you want to?”
Mu Qiannian came back to her senses and subconsciously avoided Pei Mingchen’s eyes. She looked elsewhere.
After hesitating for a long time, she said without confidence, “We’ll… we’ll see.”
Pei Mingchen was extremely disappointed. Mu Qiannian caught a glimpse of him from the corner of her eyes and did not dare to comfort him.
She was afraid that if she was not careful, her heart would soften.
Mu Qiannian had to handle her own matters again. Due to her special status, she could not stay with Pei Mingchen for a long time. It was too risky.
After a long time, Pei Mingchen slowly raised his chair and his tone became normal.
“How many days will it take for the results to be out?”
Mu Qiannian was stunned and immediately understood what he was asking. She quickly replied, “Tomorrow. We’ll go and get the results at this time tomorrow.”
Pei Mingchen nodded to show that he understood. “Then I’ll come with you tomorrow.”
Mu Qiannian nodded because she had just rejected the poor Pei Mingchen. “…”
Therefore, she was very careful at the moment because she was afraid of hurting the fragile Pei Mingchen.
When they returned to the hotel, Pei Mingchen got out of the car and opened the door like a gentleman.
Mu Qiannian observed his expression carefully until they returned to their room.
Mu Qiannian went back to her room to change. Pei Mingchen was in the living room looking at his phone when he saw a text message.
He was able to buy the house back, but the seller behind it was too mysterious. He only sent a middleman over and did not show his face the entire time.
This deliberate mystery made Pei Mingchen curious. He immediately sent someone to investigate.
The results were in.
Looking at the text message on his phone, it was a very mysterious person.
Moreover, there was another message. This mysterious person seemed to be very close to the Mu Group.
Thinking of the equally mysterious Mu Group, Pei Mingchen could not help but have doubts in his heart.
Could it be the same person?
Mu Group…
Pei Mingchen snorted coldly. It seemed like he had no choice but to personally meet this intelligent boss.
After investigating the Mu Group for so long, he knew nothing about the person behind them.
A person who was too mysterious was very dangerous. Pei Mingchen could not allow such a mysterious organization to remain.
If they could not reach cooperation, why not…
