Chapter 235 The Truth
late at night.
living room.
Wu Yingrong sat next to me, snuggling close to me.
"How long has it been since you and Qiu Zhanyu last did it?"
Why ask that question?
"It depends on whether you have a need for it."
Wu Yingrong slapped away my restless hand: "I'm not one of those innocent little girls who can be easily coaxed into bed. You wouldn't even take what I offered you before, so why are you suddenly all horny with me now?"
"To collaborate with someone, you need to have a thorough understanding of them. I'm not the kind of person who acts rashly. Opening the clubhouse and ZQ computing power was partly to thank him, and partly because I genuinely wanted to find a systematic leader to collaborate with in the provincial capital. However, I didn't know anything about him."
I held Wu Yingrong's waist; her thin nightgown couldn't completely block the warmth of my hands. The woman's body grew hotter and hotter, and she drew closer and closer to me...
"Tianyi, I really want to lean on you like this, every night."
I hold something soft in my hand.
"Is he short of money this year?"
"Why do you ask that?"
"He once borrowed money from me privately and told me not to tell anyone."
Wu Yingrong didn't want to bring up this topic. She stood up, straddled my lap, and faced me: "Aren't you leaving tonight?"
"You want me to leave?"
"In no mood."
The woman lightly touched my lips with hers, then kissed me deeply.
I responded eagerly, for 3 minutes, 5 minutes, until we were both suffocating.
"He must have used the money to speculate in stocks. The 300 million he lent you was used for stock speculation. If you hadn't lent me the money, this house would probably have been mortgaged. He lost a lot of money in the stock market and almost became obsessed."
I see. So, that 2 million was also invested in the stock market, right?
"How long has it been since you last did this?"
I'm going back to the question of getting inside.
"It's been so long, so long, I've forgotten exactly how many years. He kept me like a caged bird, and I did a lot of shady business for him. Tianyi, don't mention him anymore. It's just the two of us tonight."
The woman was no longer as at ease as she had been in the hotel that night; tonight she was as sensitive as a little sparrow.
My whole body trembles at the slightest movement of my finger.
No wonder, Ding Mo moved in a year ago and the two of them have been sleeping in the same bed.
I want to take Wu Yingrong as my wife.
But I'm also afraid of her.
This woman is very shrewd; she knows how to manipulate people's hearts.
She knows a lot about Qiu Zhanyu, and Qiu Zhanyu won't easily let go either.
Suddenly, Wu Yingrong's cell phone rang.
Upon picking it up, I saw it belonged to Qiu Zhanyu.
"Where?"
"Home."
"Could you get me some money?"
"How many?"
100.
"What did you do with the 300 million from last time?"
"Don't ask too many questions. If all else fails, just transfer 100 million from the ZQ project to me, and I'll transfer it back later."
When that call came, neither Wu Yingrong nor I were interested.
The woman stood up and found a lighter and cigarettes.
"Would you like one?"
"Thanks."
Wu Yingrong rubbed her temples: "Over the years, I've basically given all my savings back to him. We never had any feelings for each other, but the life I lived with him was far better than what I experienced with my classmates. Seeing those section chiefs and officials smiling at me, that kind of life was too addictive. I thought about leaving, but I couldn't make up my mind time and time again. I thought about fighting for it, like you said, his wife is powerful and influential, what am I? I don't even have the right to compete. He's changed. Ever since he started investing in stocks and gambling, he's been like a bloodsucking leech, frantically and heartlessly accumulating wealth behind his wife's back. All the money goes through my hands; his wife doesn't know anything about it."
Wu Yingrong wiped away her tears: "You go first."
I stood up, and the woman tactfully picked up my coat and helped me put it on.
She didn't ask me how much money Qiu Zhanyu had privately asked me about...
Just like how I consciously refrained from proactively asking for the initial 300 million...
After I closed the door and left.
Wu Yingrong buried her face in her arms on the table and wept bitterly. She knew in her heart that…
If they let me leave this time, I may never come back to this room again.
Suddenly, my phone beeped with a message notification.
When Wu Yingrong opened the account, she saw that the account that had received her 300 million yuan transfer had received another 100 million yuan transfer from her.
Unsure whether to laugh or cry, Wu Yingrong muttered under her breath, "Fool."
100 million is not much to me.
But for Wu Yingrong, it was able to enter her heart at crucial moments.
It's worth it to exchange money for sincerity, no matter the amount.
The next day, ZQ.
Something utterly absurd happened.
Su Tao and Tian Kai were arrested for soliciting prostitution last night...
I don't know how Tian Kai managed to get through to me on the phone.
At the tea table, Wu Yingrong and I looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Luckily, I don't like this kind of food..."
"Hmph, you men can't even escape this circle."
"I only like you."
"Then come to my house tonight."
I looked sullen and didn't dare to interrupt... The enemy and I are not clear right now, so it's not advisable to really go to war.
"I'll go find Captain Zhao and see how to resolve this. Prostitution isn't a big deal, but it's certainly shameful, and I reckon the two of them will have to pay a hefty sum."
"Is money a problem for the two of them? Let's take advantage of their situation and get back our initial investment of 20 first."
"That's right, you're ruthless."
Wu Yingrong gave me a thumbs up!
In less than half a day, Wu Yingrong returned after finishing her business.
"How is it?"
"What else can we do? They'll release them if the money's right. Those two were trying to get me drunk last night, and you wouldn't believe how red their faces were when we met at the police station today!"
"Have you collaborated with any of these four people?"
Wu Yingrong shook her head: "Yu Chilin and Ji Xin have always been my business partners. Su Tao and Tian Kai are just rich. They asked me for help before, and then we got in touch. A lot of Qiu Zhanyu's business funds are converted into foreign currency through Yu Chilin's beauty salon membership cards or through Ji Xin's artificial diamonds."
"Your system is already quite mature."
"I figured all of this out myself over the years. Qiu Zhanyu just handled the tasks and asked me for money..."
I frowned and said, "Do you remember having an account book?"
Wu Yingrong nodded: "Of course, it was all preparation to force him to divorce his wife and marry me, but now it's all useless."
"Hehe, it works, of course it works."
"What's it for?"
"Keep this in mind, you'll need it sooner or later! Why didn't you mention Qiu Zhanyu's parents?"
"His father was also said to be a high-ranking official, but he died of cancer a few years ago, and his mother never seemed to have heard him mention it."
No wonder they keep talking about the Qiu family, but I've never heard of any of the people mentioned above having the surname Qiu.
It turns out that after Qiu Zhanyu's father died, this guy has been relying on Chen Ke's protection to get to where he is now.
No wonder he was so angry when he found out Qiu Zhanyu had embezzled 2 million yuan in Chen Ke's office.
It gives you a feeling of a farmer and a snake.
Lamenting its misfortune, anger is indisputable.
