Zhu Pengda watched as the other party left, leaving him with an extremely arrogant back view. His fingers couldn’t help but tremble.
After they left.
Only then did the servant dare to come out and ask him carefully, “Sir, Madam has fainted. Should we call the police…?”
“Call the police?” Zhu Pengda smiled. It was the kind of self-mockery that came from extreme fear. He couldn’t move the corners of his mouth, so he gave up. There was only dejection and decay in his eyes. “Why call the police? The other party can’t wait for us to call the police.”
If they didn’t call the police, there was still a chance that the matter could be settled privately.
If they called the police and exposed the matter, the Zhu family would only suffer an even worse outcome!
Ye Wangchuan could definitely kill the Zhu family in Beijing.
Moreover, that man was famous for being kind on the outside but ruthless on the inside. Otherwise, why hadn’t anyone in Beijing dared to provoke Ye Wangchuan all these years?
Because they couldn’t afford to offend him!
Everyone would rather provoke Old Master Ye. No one in Beijing dared to provoke this young man who held the Ninth Branch in the palm of his hand!
The servant stood rooted to the ground, at a loss. She didn’t know that the Zhu family was about to be finished.
Zhu Pengda was unwilling to sit and wait for death. He gritted his teeth and rushed up. “I’ll call the Jiang family!”
In the end, this matter was because of Jiang Xianrou. Qiao Nian was a member of the Jiang family. If the Jiang family could look for Qiao Nian, their family might still have a chance of survival.
He could only rely on the Jiang family now.
…
The Zhu family fell sooner than expected.
In less than an afternoon, all the forces in Beijing heard that the Zhu family had gotten into trouble. After Zhu Pengda called Jiang Zongnan, he was called back to say that something had happened in the business world.
The Zhu family was in a mess.
After Madam Zhu fainted, the servant placed a wet towel on her forehead and pinched her. It took more than two hours, only then did she stir.
As soon as Madam Zhu woke up, she realized that she was the only one left in the house. She quickly asked the servant where Zhu Pengda had gone.
The servant told her what had happened after she fainted. Madam Zhu’s eyes rolled back and she almost fainted again.
Fortunately, the servant was quick to her philtrum. His sharp nails left a purple mark on her lips. She finally caught her breath and did not fall straight down again.
She knew fear after what had happened. Her well-maintained face was as white as paper as she asked the servant to answer the phone.
Madam Zhu couldn’t care less and called Jiang Xianrou.
…
Outside Qing University.
Tang Wanru accompanied Jiang Xianrou to complete the withdrawal procedures.
The mother and daughter did not speak along the way. Neither of them looked good, especially Jiang Xianrou. Her eyes were dark and her face was pale.
One could tell she hadn’t slept well all week.
She was no longer as arrogant as before. Her bright face revealed a rare gloomy expression, looking a little disheveled and dispirited.
The driver was waiting for them outside.
Tang Wanru opened the door first and said to Jiang Xianrou, who had been silent along the way, “Let’s go. Get in the car first. We’ll talk when we get back.”
Jiang Xianrou pursed her lips tightly and was about to bend down to get into the car when her phone suddenly rang.
Jiang Xianrou paused for a moment and answered the call impatiently. She placed the phone to her ear. “Hello?”
Her eyes were unfocused and even a little impatient, but her tone sounded magnanimous and polite.
