Chapter 553: Causing Trouble at the Door
"You are lying," Lao Zhang said. "Huang Ma told me that if the Madam returned, she would definitely blame me for poor gatekeeping, and that I should resign, otherwise I would be in for a world of trouble."
Lao Zhang came out to identify her, and A Qin immediately added, "That's right, she was the one who made me write my resignation letter too."
"Me too..."
"Me as well!"
The few of them had just been single-mindedly focused on resigning, but now, prompted by Jian Yixin's two sentences, they immediately pointed out that it was Huang Ma who had incited them to resign.
"Don't talk nonsense! I warn you, slander is a crime punishable by prison. Believe it or not, I'll go to court and sue you all, and you'll all end up in Prison!" Huang Ma began to panic, and right in front of Jian Yixin, she started threatening people.
The few servants didn't have much education and didn't know what kind of conditions constituted slander, so hearing her say this, they were too scared to make a sound.
Jian Yixin's face remained expressionless, but she understood clearly in her heart. She said calmly, "That's right, slander is indeed punishable by prison, but playing god and acting like a ghost to cause a malicious impact is also punishable by prison. Furthermore, telling the truth cannot be considered slander."
As soon as she finished speaking, A Qin immediately said, "Madam, Huang Ma never takes the initiative to do any work, but this time, all the claw marks on the floor were wiped away by her."
Lao Zhang also confirmed this, proving that the first person to bring up the "haunting" in the house was Huang Ma.
The more she said it, the more everyone believed it.
"Tell me, why did you do this?" Jian Yixin hoped she would confess voluntarily.
But Huang Ma suddenly flew into a rage, tore the resignation letters to shreds in a few swift motions, and pointed at everyone, cursing them roundly!
She cursed them for being ungrateful and biting the hand that fed them!
She had been trying to seize the opportunity to secure benefits for everyone, yet these people had betrayed her...
After cursing the servants, she cursed Jian Yixin!
"Your hearts are truly black. In Jiangzhou, who doesn't know that you two are rich? The money you earn every day, even just a little bit leaking through your fingers, would be enough for us to live without worry for a lifetime."
"The richer you are, the stingier you get. You make so much money but won't give us a raise. You have more money than you can spend and want to take it into your coffins..."
This line of reasoning from Huang Ma opened Jian Yixin and Sheng Zerong's eyes.
After a long, loud rant, Huang Ma swaggered away.
The couple exchanged a look, and Sheng Zerong went to the side to make a phone call.
Jian Yixin told everyone, "The haunting in the house was all Huang Ma's doing. She just wanted to scare everyone away, and then when new people came who didn't know anything, they would have to listen to her."
"Everyone else submitted a resignation application, but she was the only one who handed in a declaration of loyalty!"
Jian Yixin picked up the declaration of loyalty she had torn to shreds and let everyone pass it around.
Although it was torn up and it was a bit difficult to read the full content, it was still possible to piece together the general meaning.
After everyone finished reading, combined with her behavior over the past few days, they understood what was going on. Naturally, they all took back their resignation letters, apologized to Jian Yixin, and expressed that they did not want to resign.
The salary Jian Yixin provided was still quite high in Jiangzhou; leaving here, it would be truly difficult to find such a job.
Huang Ma left the Villa, dragging her suitcase and walking hurriedly forward.
After passing the villa district, a white Chevrolet was parked by the green belt.
She first looked around vigilantly, and seeing no one else around, she opened the Chevrolet's door and climbed in.
The car drove away silently, and the dark shadow that had been following her took out a phone and dialed Sheng Zerong's number: "BOSS..."
Sheng Zerong: "Mm, did you record the license plate? Very good. Yes, continue, do not alert the enemy."
The white Chevrolet circled around on the highway.
A very intense argument broke out inside the car.
Huang Ma: "Aren't you being too much? I've been busy for so many days and even lost my job. You should compensate me at least a little. Even half of the original amount we discussed would be fine—five hundred thousand."
The driver wore sunglasses; the large sunglasses covered most of his face, and the lower half of his face under the sunglasses was covered by a mask, hiding his face completely.
Although his expression couldn't be seen, the sinister aura he exuded still made Huang Ma feel a chill down her spine.
"Five hundred thousand? Hahahaha, dead people don't need to spend money."
"Click!"
He suddenly opened the car door beside Huang Ma.
A fierce, howling wind blew in, and Huang Ma screamed in terror: "What are you doing?"
The man mocked: "Things have reached this point, and you still don't know what I'm doing? You really are stupid."
"Ah!"
Huang Ma was thrown out of the car, and the car ruthlessly ran over her...
Sheng Zerong received a call from his subordinate: "I'm sorry, BOSS, Huang Ma is dead."
"How did she die?" Sheng Zerong was shocked.
He and his wife suspected that someone was behind Huang Ma, directing her to do this; she was just a hired gun, and there was a mastermind behind her.
That was why they had sent someone to track her, but the opponent had acted too quickly—before they could even begin, the other side had already silenced her!
Now there was no proof, and this lead was broken.
The subordinate told Sheng Zerong that he had been tracking her on the highway, following that Chevrolet the whole time, but because he was afraid of being discovered, he hadn't dared to follow too closely.
Then there was a sudden traffic jam on the highway, and people in front said someone had been hit and killed. When he went up to look, the person hit and killed was Huang Ma.
But that Chevrolet was already gone.
It was said that the hit-and-run vehicle had fled.
Not long after, the information for the Chevrolet's license plate was also checked—it was a fake plate!
This meant that from the license plate, it was impossible to find any information about the owner at all.
Jian Yixin felt uneasy in her heart. She could feel that although everything seemed unconnected, it was actually an invisible, massive net preparing to descend upon her.
But who was the opponent now?
Preparing to deal with her and her family?
She did not know, and could only wait for her opponent to make another move.
……
"Ma'am, Ma'am, it's bad! Huang Ma's family is causing trouble outside the residential complex. The Security Guard has blocked them outside, and they are asking what you want to do?" A Qin rushed in, panicked, to report.
"Don't rush, tell me slowly, what is going on?"
A Qin told Jian Yixin that Huang Ma's family was holding banners with black characters on a white background, intending to come to the house to cause trouble.
There were dozens of them, dressed in mourning clothes, and they were even carrying a coffin, marching aggressively toward the entrance of the complex!
These people were wailing and screaming, claiming that Huang Ma died a miserable death and that she was killed by Jian Yixin.
"I'll go out and take a look."
Jian Yixin walked out the front door, thought for a moment, and dialed Shi Youxuan: "Xuanxuan, I have some trouble at home right now. Can you come and help me? I feel like I will need your help."
"Alright, I'll go right away."
Shi Youxuan grabbed her coat and headed out.
She knew Jian Yixin's personality; if it weren't an emergency, she wouldn't bother others, not even those closest to her.
……
At the entrance of the residential complex, she saw that things were indeed as A Qin had described.
The coffin was placed to the side, and the dozens of people had clear roles: some were crying, some were shouting about the injustice, and others were standing by to cheer them on.
The scene was very lively, just not very sorrowful.
"Jian Yixin has come out!"
Someone with sharp eyes saw her, and one shout instantly ignited the atmosphere.
"Ah—my poor old mother, you died such a miserable death!"
"Punish the murderer! Jian Yixin must give the victim's family an explanation!"
"A life for a life, pay your debts!"
Jian Yixin walked out of the complex: "You've come to the wrong place, haven't you? I did not kill Huang Ma. She was playing tricks in my house, and I haven't even held her accountable yet..."
Before she could finish her sentence, she was immediately interrupted by the enraged crowd.
"Fine! The hearts of these rich people are truly black. She has already killed someone, and she still wants to hold them accountable? Why don't you go hold them accountable in front of the King of Hell!"
