Chapter 49: Make Liu Bin apologize
Qin Ze's words were half-true and half-false; he neither denied having money nor left himself without an out.
The second and third uncles nodded thoughtfully, but the awe on their faces grew deeper.
Someone who could casually donate 1.5 million for public welfare, no matter how much they claimed to have no money, was definitely not at a level they could imagine.
The atmosphere in the living room was somewhat subtle; envy, curiosity, and a hint of imperceptible flattery were all mixed together.
Qin Ze glanced at his phone; it was almost twelve o'clock noon. He stood up:
"Second uncle, third uncle, it's getting late, we have to go back."
"Ah? Leaving already?" The second aunt said hurriedly, "The meal is already cooked! Eat before you go!"
"Exactly! Xiao Ze, it's not easy for you to come back once, how can you not eat a meal?" The third aunt also tried to keep him.
Qin's father looked at Qin Ze, his eyes also showing a desire for him to stay.
He had gained enough face in front of his old brothers today and wanted to stay a while longer.
Qin Ze shook his head directly:
"I really have to go. I have things to do tomorrow, I need to rush back to Jiangcheng today."
"Second uncle, third uncle, I've troubled you this time."
As Qin Ze said this, he took a thick envelope from the bag he was carrying and placed it on the table.
"This little bit of money, consider it me treating you to a meal."
"Second uncle, third uncle, take this money, consider it me treating you to a meal."
The second uncle looked at the bulging envelope:
"Xiao Ze, what are you doing? How can we take your money?"
The third uncle also waved his hands:
"No, no! It's enough that you came back to see us, how can we take money!"
Qin Ze pushed the envelope forward:
"Second uncle, third uncle, don't push it away. This isn't much, just fifty thousand."
The second and third uncles looked at each other, both seeing shock in the other's eyes.
Fifty thousand, in Qin Family Village, was about the net income of an ordinary family for a year.
Qin Shougang coughed:
"Shouqiang, Shoufu, since Xiao Ze is giving it to you, just take it. He has the ability now, and thinking of you uncles is a good thing."
With the big brother speaking, the second and third uncles tremblingly took the envelope.
The heavy weight made both of their hands shake a little.
"Xiao Ze... this, this makes us not know what to say..."
"Second uncle, family doesn't speak of two families." Qin Ze interrupted him.
"In the future, if there's anything at home, call me anytime. As for the Wang family, I've already spoken to Director Wang at the police station, they won't dare to cause trouble again."
"If they dare to jump around again, just tell me directly, and I'll handle it."
These words were said plainly, but they carried full weight.
The second and third uncles nodded repeatedly, the gratitude and awe on their faces almost overflowing.
After exchanging a few more polite words, Qin Ze's family stood up to say goodbye.
Both the second and third uncle's families saw them to the door, watching until Qin Ze's car drove out of the village before reluctantly going back.
In the car, Qin Shougang sat in the passenger seat, not saying a word.
Qin's mother sat in the back, also silent.
After driving for more than ten minutes, Qin Shougang finally spoke:
"Son, tell your dad the truth, how much money did you actually earn?"
"That Moral Model thing just now, donating 1.5 million, how come I feel like you didn't just win the lottery?"
Qin's mother also leaned over:
"That's right, Xiao Ze, your dad didn't sleep all night last night, just pondering this matter."
Qin Ze had long expected his parents would ask.
"Dad, Mom, you're overthinking it."
"I really did win the lottery, over eight million after taxes. Opening a company is true, but it's just a shell company."
"The donation is also true, but that's for tax avoidance; the company has to pay taxes, and donating money means paying less, very reasonable, right?"
Qin Shougang was half-believing:
"Really?"
"Otherwise?" Qin Ze asked back.
These words were reasonable and logical. Qin Shougang thought about it and seemed to be convinced.
Qin's mother interjected:
"Xiao Ze, this time back in Jiangcheng, contact that girl from Lao Zhao's family more."
"That child Yutong, I think she's quite good, high education, looks pretty, and you two are childhood sweethearts."
Qin Ze had a headache:
"Mom, there's really no possibility between Zhao Yutong and me."
Qin's mother sighed:
"Then what about Xiao Jiang? I see that girl is quite attentive to you, she's diligent, has a sweet mouth, and can cook."
"The key is she's your employee, close water towers get the moonlight first."
Qin Ze was between laughter and tears:
"Mom, Jiang Wan is just my junior sister, now she's a colleague. Don't blindly play matchmaker."
Following this, Qin Ze didn't respond anymore.
After sending his parents home, Qin Ze didn't stay long before turning and going downstairs.
Sitting in the car, he took out his phone and sent a message to Jiang Wan.
"Where are you? I'm finished here."
The message was replied to in seconds.
"I'm at the hotel, room number 806. Senior brother, you can just come up."
Qin Ze replied:
"Alright, there in half an hour."
Qin Ze started the car; before leaving the residential area, Qin Ze opened WeChat to handle the messages that had accumulated all morning.
The first to pop up was Su Qingqing.
"Brother Qin Ze, my mom was discharged today. The doctor said she's recovering quite well, but still needs to rest quietly."
"When are you coming back to Jiangcheng? I want my mom to see you."
Qin Ze thought for a moment and replied:
"When I return to Jiangcheng, I'll go see your aunt."
Exiting the chat interface with Su Qingqing, the next one was from Xiao Ya.
"Brother Qin, my dad came to ask me for money again today."
Qin Ze frowned. Xiao Ya's gambler father was truly like a lingering ghost.
"Don't give him money. When I return to Jiangcheng, I'll handle it."
The next one was from the flight attendant Jiang Manman.
"Big Boss Qin, I've flown back, I'm exhausted! Are you in Jiangcheng? I can't wait to eat you!"
It was followed by a mischievous emoji.
Qin Ze smiled and replied:
"Not in Jiangcheng, back in my hometown. Wait for me to return to find you."
Finally, it was from Shen Jingshu.
The message was very long.
"Qin Ze, Lawyer Zhang went to see Liu Bin today. Liu Bin's attitude was very tough, insisting on not agreeing to a divorce, and even said I was being supported by him and had no right to propose a divorce."
"Lawyer Zhang brought out evidence of his cheating and embezzlement, and he smashed a cup on the spot, threatening that if I dared to divorce, he would kill me."
Qin Ze's eyes turned cold.
Thinking for a moment, he dialed Brother Hu's phone directly.
The phone rang seven or eight times before being answered, and the voice on the other side was somewhat panicked:
"Qi-Qin, Mr. Qin? Are you looking for me?"
"Brother Hu, how have you handled things on Liu Bin's side?" Qin Ze got straight to the point.
Brother Hu swallowed his saliva:
"Mr. Qin, I'm just about to set off!"
Qin Ze sneered:
"Do you still remember what I told you last time?"
"I-I remember..."
"Handle Liu Bin's matter as you see fit."
Qin Ze's tone turned cold.
"I'll give you three days. Within three days, if Liu Bin doesn't come to apologize to me personally, don't blame me for being impolite about the previous matters."
"The evidence in Lawyer Zhang's hands can do more than just send Liu Bin inside. I also know a thing or two about your own rotten business."
This was a bluff, but the effect was immediate.
Brother Hu was so scared his voice changed:
"Mr. Qin! Please don't! I'll handle it immediately! I'll go handle it right now! I will definitely make Liu Bin cave! Please give me some time!"
"Three days." Qin Ze repeated, "Just three days."
After saying this, Qin Ze hung up the phone directly.
Evil people still need to be ground down by evil means.
After handling these matters, Qin Ze drove the car to the hotel where Jiang Wan was staying.
Qin Ze parked the car, walked into the lobby, and took the elevator to the eighth floor.
Room 806.
He knocked on the door.
"Coming!" Jiang Wan's voice came from inside. ===== CHAPTER 50 =====
