Chapter 1252: Getting the Certificate at the Civil Affairs Bureau

The sound is wrong.

When Yun Qitian pressed the shutter, he was still wondering why the phone made a sound when taking a photo.

At this moment, he was already being dragged by the arm by Shi Ran, running inside!

There was danger; although his reaction was a bit slow, he had realized it.

The two flashed quickly into the main gate, and Shi Ran notified the bodyguards at top speed: "There is a sniper at the ten o'clock position of the Civil Affairs Bureau main entrance, go catch them quickly."

……

At the same time.

At the ten o'clock position of the Civil Affairs Bureau main entrance, on the top floor of an unfinished Architecture, the sharpshooter cursed while packing up their things.

"Broken thing, broken place, broken people!"

Their gun could no longer be used; they had bought a new sniper rifle through illegal channels in Jiangzhou.

The person who sold the gun to them had praised it to the skies, boasting endlessly.

As it turned out, it wasn't even as good as the one they had thrown away.

That gun had a broken firing pin, but this one couldn't be used at all, and they had even been exposed!

Does that woman have dog ears?

At such a long distance, she was actually able to hear the sound of the gunshot.

Anger is anger, but running away is still necessary; as long as the green hills remain, one need not worry about firewood.

It is a pity that they could not return to the green hills.

Shi Ran's people arrived too quickly, blocking them inside the building.

The reason a sharpshooter is called a sharpshooter is that they use a gun with supernatural skill; away from a gun, they are almost just an ordinary person.

With almost no effort, they were blocked in the building and caught.

According to Yun Qitian's intention, they should interrogate them on the spot, but Shi Ran said it was too dangerous and it would be safer to hand the person over to the police.

The sharpshooter was taken to the police station but refused to confess.

Since entering, they hadn't said a single word; no matter how they were asked, they wouldn't speak.

The matter seemed to have reached a stalemate; having finally caught the person, they couldn't get a single word out.

Shi Youxuan smiled slightly: "I have a way."

Her method was very simple: first, have people spread the news that the sharpshooter was from L Country, and say that Qi Heng was the mastermind!

Whether there is evidence or not is not important.

Even if it is a lie, if said a thousand times it becomes the truth; besides, they just lack evidence, the truth of the matter is exactly this, it doesn't need evidence, as long as there are people who believe it.

Those watching the excitement don't mind the trouble.

The news that Qi Heng sent people to Jiangzhou to kill Yun Qitian spread like it had grown wings, quickly reaching every corner of the world and hitting the front pages of all major headlines.

Qi Heng once again became the focus of attention, and the favorability people had finally built up for him instantly dropped back to freezing point!

He was about to be driven mad with anger.

Who leaked the news?

That's right, he was the mastermind behind the assassination of Yun Qitian.

But this matter was very secretive, okay?

No one else knew about it at all, and it was even more impossible for anyone to have obtained evidence; why were there rumors spreading outside as if someone knew the truth?

His first instinct was that Liu Min had a loose tongue and leaked the news.

So he called Liu Min over and scolded her severely.

Qi Heng spoke very harshly, reprimanding Liu Min for being unable to accomplish anything but good at ruining things, having no ability yet making reckless promises, not only failing to handle the matter well but also implicating him...

Liu Min, with such an arrogant and domineering temperament, was as submissive as a kitten in front of Qi Heng.

She trembled and sobbed softly, only able to say "I'm sorry" and "I was wrong," without defending herself at all.

Qi Heng did not put a love spell on her, but he often brainwashed her.

He made Liu Min always have a feeling—that she had been married before, so she was not worthy of him!

Liu Min is a woman with a fiery temper but is simple and naive; Qi Heng basically didn't spend much effort to make her follow his every word.

Now Liu Min is just like this; she feels that everything is her own fault, and that the current situation is all because she used the wrong person, which added trouble for Qi Heng, without ever thinking about who the real culprit of this matter was.

"What is the use of just apologizing? Hmph!"

Looking at her timid appearance, Qi Heng's anger dissipated a little; he told Liu Min to leave, as he wanted to be alone to calm down.

Liu Min left the Presidential Office, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt she had let him down.

She thought of an idea.

Liu Min convened a press conference for reporters, angrily denouncing that everything on the internet was rumors and nonsense without any factual basis.

She took all the blame upon herself, bearing it all alone.

Qi Heng's reputation was saved, but as for Liu Min's reputation... well, she didn't have a good reputation to begin with.

Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear Spring Shoes; actually, it didn't matter.

……

Jiangzhou.

Sheng Family.

Ma Ling'er and Shi Youxuan sat on the sofa, drinking tea and chatting.

Ma Ling'er gritted her teeth: "I really didn't expect this Liu Min to be so bad; if she couldn't be our daughter-in-law, she wanted to destroy my son? Such a vicious woman, it's a good thing our Qitian doesn't like her."

Shi Youxuan: "That girl was used by Qi Heng; the mastermind must be Qi Heng."

At this time, she thought of another key person—where did Zhu Qingrui go?

The little aunt once secretly took people back there.

She intended to take back the Ji Family, but discovered that it was empty, with nothing left but ruins and devastation.

All the facilities had been destroyed, and everything the Ji Family had painstakingly built over thousands of years was ruined in an instant.

Only then did Ji Yingjie make up her mind to leave her homeland, buy a new piece of land, and rebuild the Ji Family!

They did not know what had happened to the original Ji Family; they only knew that Zhu Qingrui was not there, did not know where he had gone, and even less whether he was dead or alive.

"Something is wrong."

She suddenly stood up and started to leave, and Ma Ling'er asked curiously, "Hey! What is wrong?"

The two families were already related by marriage, so there was no need to hide anything from her.

Shi Youxuan said to her, "We overlooked that brat Zhu Qingrui; I suspect that Qi Heng is colluding with him."

Ma Ling'er gasped.

She was not familiar with Zhu Qingrui, but she knew that the man was both wicked and cunning.

If Qi Heng was a tiger, then Zhu Qingrui was the sharp claw on the tiger's paw!

If these two people got together, they would be even harder to deal with.

Shi Youxuan called Wang Yong and asked him to send a few steady and reliable people to the Presidential Palace as moles to scout the situation.

Wang Yong laughed, "Sister-in-law, no wonder they say you and my brother are a match made in heaven; my brother just called me this morning to arrange this very thing. Did you two plan this together?"

They truly had not discussed it.

It was just a coincidence that they happened to think of the same thing at the same time.

Ma Ling'er exclaimed, "You two are becoming more and more in sync; I hope Qi Tian and his young lady can be just like you!"

There is no parent in the world who does not hope for their children's marriage to be happy and fulfilling; Ma Ling'er thought this way, and Shi Youxuan agreed one hundred percent, but the development of events often does not shift according to human will.

……

On the eve of the wedding of Shi Ran and Yun Qitian.

The Sheng Family.

Shi Ran came out of her room wearing her mother's wedding dress from back then, and everyone's eyes were fixed on her.

Grandma exclaimed, "Our Ranran is truly beautiful, exactly the same as her mother when she was young."

Grandpa chimed in, "Ranran is prettier and smarter than her mother; marrying that brat Yun Qitian is letting him off too easy."
