Master Wang Strikes

He knew that Ye Wangchuan would not let them off. He would definitely make them suffer.

"I'm suspended."

Wei Ling felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

Panicked, she grabbed his arm and spoke quickly and anxiously. "How could this be? He's not in the country. How could he suspend you? Is there no other way?"

Shen Jingyan extricated himself from her and smiled bitterly. "Have you forgotten what the Qin family does?"

The Qin family?

Wei Ling thought of Qin Si.

Shen Jingyan pointed it out. "The entire Qin family follows his lead. Elder Ye's words might not even be as useful as his. If he wants to deal with me, who would dare to help me?"

Wei Ling was dazed.

Shen Jingyan gathered his emotions and forced himself to perk up. "With that person's personality, this is only the beginning. I'll see if I can contact Qiao Nian. If she's willing to help, our ending might be better. If not... our family will be ruined this time."The source of this content is no(vel) nex(t).c/om

Wei Ling suddenly looked at him and saw his unprecedentedly serious expression.

She hurriedly went to look for her cell phone. "I'm going to call Wei Lou."

In the past, she would never look for her nephew, Wei Lou. Their family's situation had taken a turn for the worse, and the person from the reclusive family had abandoned them.

She could only lower herself and beg now.

Wei Ling and Shen Jingyan were in a mess.

On the other hand, Qiao Nian was doing just fine.

She pulled Jiang Zongjin out of the court and then went to look for Ye Wangchuan. The latter drove them to the old restaurant for some good mutton.

The boss had already prepared the pot and ingredients and gave them space.

There was a table full of dishes in the huge courtyard house. Ye Wangchuan pulled out a chair and politely said, "Uncle Jiang, sit here."

Jiang Zongjin walked over and sat down after some hesitation. "Thank you."

Ye Wangchuan brought him a bowl and chopsticks, poured a cup of tea, and placed it in front of him. Then, sitting opposite him, he smiled and said, "The mutton tastes good. I asked the boss to make porridge in advance. When you're almost done eating, you can have a bowl of porridge to moisten your stomach."

Qiao Nian sat beside him and naturally put food into the pot.

Smoke rose from the copper pot and covered her exquisite face, making it impossible to see her expression or guess what she was thinking.

Jiang Zongjin did not say anything. He was filled with guilt towards Qiao Nian. After a long time of mental preparation, he said with difficulty, "Nian Nian, don't be angry. I..."

Qiao Nian picked up a piece of mutton, put it in his bowl, and then said, "Eat."

Jiang Zongjin lowered his head and picked up his chopsticks.

Qiao Nian was originally angry, but the anger dissipated upon seeing that he was down. Hence, she put down her chopsticks and looked at him. "I don't blame you."

Jiang Zongjin looked up.

Qiao Nian rubbed her eyebrows, her dark eyes deep and dark. "This has nothing to do with you. They're after me."

She did not know if Jiang Zongjin knew how Ji Qing died or who killed her, so she did not know how to tell him about Nie Qingru.

"... I implicated you this time." Jiang Zongjin had indeed been blackmailed by this family this time, but without the help from behind the scenes, this matter wouldn't have blown up to this scale.
