Chapter 707: Also a Talent
As long as her husband could come out safely, she could pay any price; even if it meant dying for him, she would be willing.
Jiang Siwei begged Shi Youxuan bitterly to let her husband go; as long as she let him go, she could be a beast of burden for Shi Youxuan.
Shi Youxuan did not need beasts of burden, but it was time for dinner at home.
Wang Yinghao could not bear to see pitiful people, so she invited her to eat together.
Jiang Siwei had not eaten for three days, and Sheng Jiang's meal was rich; she was polite with her words, "No, I'm not hungry," but her gaze kept darting toward the dining room.
Wang Yinghao pulled her to sit by her side.
Jiang Siwei ate three bowls of rice in a row, like a gale sweeping away fallen leaves, eating half the dishes on the table by herself.
Even Sheng Zichen was dumbfounded.
It was the first time he had seen someone who could eat more than he could!
"Drink some soup."
Wang Yinghao happily ladled a bowl of West Lake beef soup for her.
After eating and drinking her fill, Jiang Siwei continued to beg Shi Youxuan bitterly to let her husband go.
Shi Youxuan told her, "It's not up to me alone; he used our company's name to swindle people, and I can choose not to pursue the reputational damage caused to Tianma."
"But what about those fifteen swindled students? You must return the ill-gotten gains, then offer a formal apology; once they decide to forgive you, and you pay the fines at the police station, this matter can be considered finished."
"Okay, okay, okay, I can do all of that."
All Jiang Siwei was thinking about now was that her husband would not have to be sentenced, so she could agree to any condition.
The police station made an exception and let Jiang Siwei go see her husband.
She told her husband about Shi Youxuan's conditions, and Liu Fengchao was overjoyed, agreeing to everything.
But his mother was unwilling, and she cried and whined, "These rich people are truly wicked; they should have been kind to the end and just helped us pay the money back. In their eyes, this little bit of money doesn't count for anything..."
Jiang Siwei dared not make a sound, but Liu Fengchao dared to snap back at his mother, "Don't be insatiably greedy. The fact that they agreed to let me out is all for the sake of Weiwei. One must know when to be satisfied; don't push your luck."
Whatever her son said was right, so the old lady immediately stopped talking.
In this family, Liu Fengchao could still be considered a sensible person.
He asked his mother to take out the money they had just received two days ago, and upon returning to the room, he handed it to Jiang Siwei, "Here, put this in the bank tomorrow, in your name."
His wife had been married to him for so long without ever enjoying any blessings or having any say in things.
Although he had always been unreliable, he was not stupid and knew he owed his wife.
She held the money with both hands, doubting if there was something wrong with her ears, "Husband, this money has to be returned to them tomorrow; how can it be deposited into the bank? Did you say it wrong, or did I hear it wrong?"
Liu Fengchao said, "I didn't say it wrong, and you didn't hear it wrong. If I tell you to deposit it, then deposit it; it won't go wrong."
"What kind of people do you think the students in University City are? They are all rich! I'm going there to clear Tianma's name; no one will come to ask for a refund. Don't worry, they don't care about this little bit of money, and they can't afford to lose face."
He had thought he would be sitting in prison until the end of his days; he had run into a real master while being a fake, and was directly tricked into the police station—how could that end well?
He hadn't expected Shi Youxuan to let him off so easily.
Let him go give refunds?
If he had to go, he would go.
He knew what he was doing.
University City.
Liu Fengchao held up a large sign and waited honestly at the school entrance.
The sign read: I was wrong.
The commemorative coins I sold at the entrance a few days ago were fake; students who were swindled, please come to me for a refund.
He stood at the main gate for three days.
There were plenty of people watching the spectacle, but not a single person came to return their goods!
He was right.
Jiang Siwei was pleasantly surprised, her face full of admiration, "Husband, you are truly amazing; what you said was so accurate, no one really came to return the goods."
Liu Fengchao smiled slightly and said proudly, "Of course. Have I been drifting through the world all these years for nothing? If I didn't have some brains, I would have been beaten to death who knows how many times..."
Halfway through his sentence, he realized that talking like this would ruin his glorious image in his wife's eyes, so he immediately changed the subject, "Do you know why no one came to return the goods?"
Jiang Siwei shook her head, looking at her husband with stars in her eyes, blindly admiring him.
Ah! How comfortable!
This gaze was too gratifying.
The reason Liu Fengchao had married Jiang Siwei in the first place was because he liked seeing this kind of admiring little look.
Although Jiang Siwei was not pretty and her brain was not smart enough.
But she liked listening to him talk and admired him blindly.
Compared to finding a beautiful woman to marry and bring home like an ancestor, Liu Fengchao preferred to be the ancestor himself, being respectfully admired by his wife, just like now!
He spoke smugly about his business philosophy, "I chose this place because the students here have money. Their monthly pocket money is in the tens of thousands; ten thousand for a set is nothing."
"Do you think they believed the commemorative coins were real? Not entirely. Many people just felt that I spoke nicely, and after I flattered them and made them feel comfortable, they didn't care about the money, so naturally, they bought them..."
He spoke with great conviction and focus.
Because he was too focused, he did not notice that someone was monitoring him behind his back...
Dingsheng Group.
Chairman's office.
Lao Qi stood in front of the desk, relaying the words he had just overheard... monitored, to Sheng Hanyu without missing a single word.
A trace of approval appeared on Sheng Hanyu's habitually stern face!
That's right.
It is approval!
He said to Lao Qi: "That's enough, it has already been three days, the test is over, bring him here."
"Yes." Lao Qi left.
A Mercedes-Benz 600 pulled up silently in front of Liu Fengchao, the car door opened, and Lao Qi stepped out: "Are you Liu Fengchao?"
Asking a question when the answer is already known.
But he did not know.
Lao Qi was dressed in a designer suit, wearing Ray-Ban sunglasses, and a thick gold chain was sparkling.
The gold he wore was real.
Although Liu Fengchao sold fakes, he knew his goods.
Plus, Lao Qi looked imposing and clearly wasn't an ordinary person, so he started trembling like a leaf: "No, I am not."
As soon as he finished speaking, he tried to run.
He thought it was some student he had scammed who had brought people to take revenge on him.
But this time he didn't get away.
The back of his collar was grabbed by Lao Qi: "If you aren't, what are you running for?"
"I, I need to go to the restroom, I have to pee."
Lao Qi: "My Chairman wants to see you, to offer you a job with an annual salary of several hundred thousand; if you perform well, earning several million is not impossible..."
"Who is your Chairman?" Liu Fengchao stopped running immediately.
Lao Qi let him go: "Weren't you going to the restroom? Go ahead."
Liu Fengchao: "I suddenly don't want to go anymore, your Chairman... I'll go." His gaze swept from Lao Qi to the car.
Armani's new suit for this year.
A limited edition!
The leather shoes were crocodile skin, real leather!
The craftsmanship was truly excellent, hand-stitched by a master, not cheap at all.
Looking at the car again, at first glance he only saw the Mercedes-Benz logo, then he saw it was a 600; this car was also very expensive, and judging by this man's tone, he was also an employee, so how rich must his Chairman be?
In the span of a few seconds.
Liu Fengchao's brain had already spun many times, thinking of a great many things.
"Let's go now, I'll go with you." He bowed and scraped, smiling obsequiously.
Lao Qi looked down on him from the bottom of his heart, but he had always been obedient to the Chairman's orders.
It just didn't stop him from teasing him a little.
"I'm looking for Liu Fengchao, and you aren't him."
"I am, I am, I am Liu Fengchao, you found the right person." To prove his identity, he took out his ID card for Lao Qi to see: "Take a look, it's me."
