Chapter 43: Mutual Scheming

She wanted to explain, but it was obvious those colleagues wouldn't give her this chance.

Seeing everyone had left, Gao Chenchen's face flushed a little, feeling somewhat regretful.

She knew that even if she wanted to explain, those people wouldn't believe her.

"Mr. Qin, sorry, they were just joking, don't misunderstand."

Gao Chenchen said.

She was quite clear that someone like Qin Yang was definitely not something an ordinary person could deserve.

Although she was a brigade captain of the Law Enforcement Bureau, she might not necessarily be favored by the other party.

Qin Yang smiled and said, "I also know everyone was just joking. This time I came back mainly to deliver this medicine to you, and at the same time to say sorry."

"Why?"

Gao Chenchen was somewhat surprised.

"I just killed Qian Huan, and he told me who his employer was."

"Who?"

Gao Chenchen immediately asked, somewhat agitated.

She was extremely resentful toward the employer.

The other side almost managed to kill her.

"The Jiang family, Jiang Chang Yong—if I had to put it that way, I should call him grandfather." Qin Yang said.

Gao Chenchen was stunned.

Did Jiang Chang Yong act against me? Was it because I arrested Jiang Chenglong?

If that were the reason, it would actually make sense.

"It's because I killed Jiang Nan Feng, but you claimed you were the one who struck him down, so Jiang Chang Yong hired assassins to have you killed."

Qin Yang said.

It turned out to be this reason.

Gao Chenchen gritted her teeth and said angrily, "They colluded with those illegal overseas organizations—do they even have any justification? People like that deserve to die."

"I already recorded it just now; this is the recording, you can have people arrested based on it."

Qin Yang sent the recording to Gao Chenchen's phone.

"Thank you."

Gao Chenchen said gratefully.

She was quite clear that even if this matter was because Qin Yang killed Jiang Nan Feng, it was merely his duty.

And it's not strange that Jiang Chang Yong would blame himself for the matter.

After all, his own words are placed there.

Afterwards, Gao Chenchen hesitated and said, "But, Jiang Chang Yong is after all your grandfather; arresting him, isn't that a bit..."

Having said that, Gao Chenchen didn't continue.

"You might not know my situation; if you inquire a little, you'll find out. Don't be polite—go ahead and arrest him, I won't have any objections." Qin Yang said with a smile.

"Understood."

Gao Chenchen nodded.

Only then did Qin Yang take his leave.

Watching Qin Yang's departing back, Gao Chenchen took out her phone and had her subordinates look into the relationship between Qin Yang and the Jiang family.

Upon seeing the data her subordinates sent back, Gao Chenchen was utterly stunned.

She felt only one thing: that both the Qin and Jiang families were too stupid.

They had such a talented biological son like Qin Yang and didn't want him, yet they targeted Qin Yang over an illegitimate child born of a mistress.

Moreover, even after Qin Li's identity was exposed, the other side remained unrepentant.

The Jiang family continued to cause trouble for Qin Yang.

Gao Chenchen was almost driven to tears by the stupidity of the Jiang family people.

No wonder they hired someone to kill her.

Indeed, this family of idiots can do any stupid thing, and they almost ended up killing themselves.

Thinking this through, Gao Chenchen directly arranged to make arrests.

Half an hour later, Jiang Chang Yong was directly taken from his home by law enforcement officers.

Qian Hui and the others were numb; lately the Jiang family has had one incident after another, Jiang Chang Yong was arrested, yet they found it not at all strange.

"How is my father?"

Jiang Wanrou asked.

Although she wore a worried expression, inside she was actually quite pleased.

If her father were also taken away, leaving only her mother, it would be impossible for her to compete with her for control of the Jiang family.

The entire Jiang family already belonged entirely to her.

Jiang Wanrou felt she had simply picked up a great bargain.

She never imagined, even if beaten to death, that the Jiang family would eventually become hers.

"Hiring assassins to murder, they almost killed Law Enforcement Team captain Gao Chenchen; now we've found evidence, he probably won't be able to get out for the rest of his life."

A member of the Law Enforcement Team said coldly.

Thinking about the captain's injuries, they all felt a great deal of anger.

This time, having captured Jiang Chang Yong, it's impossible to let him go.

The captain, such a good person who risked his life to do good for the people, honored as a Qing Tian, actually had someone want to kill her—it's simply inhuman.

Jiang Wanrou widened her eyes.

Her own father actually hired a killer to commit murder.

Moreover, the victim was the captain of the Law Enforcement Team, Gao Chenchen.

She felt her father was simply insane.

If he weren't insane, it would be impossible for him to do such a thing.

However, this way, the Jiang family would become cheap for her, completely becoming hers.

Qian Hui looked flustered, anxiously asking, "Is there some misunderstanding here? My father has always been law-abiding."

The law enforcer scoffed, "The evidence is solid; there's no need to say these nonsense words."

They took the person away.

Moreover, the news that Jiang Chang Yong had been taken away also spread.

Immediately, the Jiang family's influence plummeted.

Many collaborators canceled their cooperation.

They worried that if this continued, the Jiang family would be ruined.

Jiang Wanrou wasn't in a hurry either; as long as no one obstructed the Jiang family's businesses, she wouldn't worry.

With the Jiang family's foundation, as long as she managed it well, it would gradually recover as well.

Qin Xue's business abilities are also quite strong.

At that moment, Qin Weiye came over.

"Get out, the Jiang family doesn't welcome you."

Jiang Wanrou snapped, showing no courtesy.

Qin Weiye, however, said, "I'm here to save you; do you still want to drive me away?"

Jiang Wanrou coldly stared at him, her expression disdainful.

In her view, Qin Weiye was just a phoenix man who, knowing she had taken over the Jiang family, came to take advantage.

At this moment, his flattery of her served only one purpose: to gain benefits from her.

Thinking this, Jiang Wanrou's gaze toward Qin Weiye was filled with coldness.

Qin Weiye said, "You really misunderstand; I truly came to help you. I have already returned to my roots, but to become an heir of the family, I still need stronger support. If we reunite, it would be a win-win."

Reunite?

Jiang Wanrou snorted coldly.

She disdainfully said, "You still want to trick me? If you want me to reunite with you, fine, but you must do one thing."

"You say it; whether it's one thing or a hundred, I can do it."

Qin Weiye said.

Now, to gain support and have Jiang Wanrou reunite with him, Qin Weiye has made up his mind; no matter how harsh her demands, he will agree.

Jiang Wanrou sneered, "This demand is simple: break Qin Li's limbs, throw him onto the street to beg, and swear you'll never look after him again; only then will I reunite with you."

Qin Weiye had initially looked grim, but hearing her words, he instantly brightened and said, "Is it really that simple?"

"And this is called simple?"

Jiang Wanrou looked utterly incredulous.

She had thought Qin Weiye would refuse, but unexpectedly he readily agreed and even said it was simple.

This left Jiang Wanrou somewhat bewildered.

Could this man really be so ruthless?

After all, even a tiger does not eat its own cubs.

Qin Weiye laughed, "I've long regretted it; back then it was my mistake to let Qin Li, that bastard, be raised in our home—an error compounded by error. Only after we separated did I realize that the person I truly love is actually you; otherwise I wouldn't have married you and had so many children, spending all those years together."

"Really?"

Jiang Wanrou felt somewhat moved.

Beside her, Qin Xue couldn't help but want to roll her eyes.

Her mother is really too foolish.

She actually believed all that scoundrel's talk from the other side.

No wonder she's been deceived by her father for so many years.

However, Qin Xue now cannot speak up to remind.

Otherwise, not only would her father scold her, but even that mother who is easily swayed by a few words would likely reprimand her.

On the other hand, Qin Wan looked delighted, feeling she would return to her former life.

When the family is together then, happiness will be supreme.

"Of course it's true; I only love you, the only one I love is you. I will deal with Qin Li, and I won't let him tarnish our feelings in any way."

Saying this, Qin Weiye suddenly dropped to one knee, opened a small box, revealing a ring set with a blue gemstone.

"Honey, please forgive me; will you marry me again? I will surely treat you well and never let you be hurt again."

Qin Weiye said with an excited expression.

"Okay, I promise you."

Jiang Wanrou's eyes turned red as she took the ring.

"Great, I'll go get the household register right now so we can remarry."

Having said that, Qin Weiye excitedly ran out.

Watching Qin Weiye's retreating back, Jiang Wanrou's face grew ever colder.

"Mom, what do you think?"

Qin Xue asked softly.

Jiang Wanrou said coldly, "This scumbag, you think I'd still believe him?"

Qin Xue froze.

Since Mother doesn't believe Father, why would she still agree to his proposal?

Jiang Wanrou sneered, "You don't know; your father is an illegitimate child of the top-tier aristocratic Qin family of Haijiang Province. Over these years he has continually wanted to return to his ancestral roots but has never succeeded. I heard that just a few days ago the Qin family suffered a major upheaval, and all the legitimate heirs died. Only then were these illegitimate children summoned back to return to the clan, hoping to select one of them as heir."

Qin Xue was shocked; this was something she had never known.

Her own father was actually just an illegitimate child.

"Mom, are you planning to help Dad?"

Qin Xue asked.

Qin Wan immediately said, "Of course, if we don't help Dad, who else can we help?"

She acted as if it were obvious, making Qin Xue roll her eyes involuntarily.

If Mother were really that simple, she wouldn't have changed her expression just now.

At first, even Qin Xue thought Mother had been fooled by Father.

Now it seems the one who was truly deceived is probably Father.

Mother has changed.

Realizing this, Qin Xue shivered.

Now the family, aside from Qin Wan still being just as foolish, everyone else is different.

"Of course, once he becomes head of the Qin family, if anything happens, then the entire Qin family will be ours, mother and daughter."

Jiang Wanrou sneered.

Qin Xue understood her mother's meaning; she couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air, Hàirán gazing at Jiang Wanrou; she was practically crazy.

Qin Wan, meanwhile, looked clueless, still not understanding what her mother meant.

Soon, Qin Weiye returned.

He brought the household register and went with Jiang Wanrou to get their marriage certificate.

Qin Li, on the other hand, was driven out of the Qin family by him, his legs were broken, and thrown onto the street to fend for himself.

In order to obtain the Qin family inheritance, Qin Weiye went utterly berserk, even attacking the children of the woman he loved most.

In his whole life, he probably never loved anyone; the only person he loved was himself.
