Chapter 967 The Fatal Cutting Stroke

with a laugh. "Come on, let's go visit your grandfather; his health has been declining over the past couple of years."Han Xinye nodded silently upon hearing this and then hooked her arm around Wang Z...Chapter 967 A Fatal Cut

Wang Zheng smiled slightly, completely unconcerned.

Qiao Chengying also noticed Wang Zheng's smile and felt an inexplicable chill in his body once again!

Qiao Chengying knew that with the Seven Elders of Ideal Country stepping in, no matter whether Qiao Jing could turn the tables eventually or not, he himself would be guaranteed safety. However, with Wang Zheng involved, and Eastern Evil King joining as well, Qiao Chengying felt he had no chance of winning at all!

"So, since I am alive and kicking, I need to prepare for this day when I return. Those who wronged me will receive what they deserve."

When Qiao Jing said that, she smiled charmingly, like a hundred flowers blooming. But few knew the emotions hidden behind her smile.

"Who could it be" asked Qiao Huichen. The words of Qiao Jing had caused extreme panic in this old man. If his hard-earned family business was destroyed overnight with the revelation of this truth, what would he have achieved A joke!

Qiao Jing turned to look at where Qiao Chengying stood, meeting his gaze as she said, "At this point, Qiao Chengying, do you still need an explanation"

"It's Qiao Chengying! It could actually be Qiao Chengying!" At that moment, some people started whispering. Several members of the second generation of the Qiao family were guessing who it might be. Since Qiao Chengying had always given a righteous image to outsiders, not many guessed it was him.

When Qiao Jing said it was Qiao Chengying, a few people already understood. Although looking at it from the perspective of moral character, his likelihood of committing such crimes is very low, but after Qiao Jing's downfall, the most direct beneficiary would be Qiao Shanxing. Even though the latter has achieved considerable success, if everything Qiao Jing said was true, then Qiao Shanxing’s rise to power was far from glorious, almost shameful!

That's how this world works; it cares only about victory and defeat. When you succeed, no one will care about how many corpses you trample on.

Qiao Chengying remained calm, laughing loudly: "Qiao Jing, after being away for so long, your story upon returning is quite impressive, but without solid evidence, who here would believe you"

"Moreover, I will also pursue legal action against your slander." Qiao Chengying avoided Wang Zheng's gaze and tried to make his expression look very confident.

However, now that the situation had escalated, what Qiao Jing said was like a high explosive bomb being dropped into the tranquil lake of Hong Kong society, stirring up immense waves. Even if Qiao Chengying wasn't toppled by Qiao Jing and no solid evidence emerged against him, public opinion would already be swirling with doubts about Qiao Chengying from today onwards!

"Qiao Chengying, do you really believe I won’t have any evidence" Qiao Jing smiled coldly: "Also, I need to remind you that your seemingly confident smile looks fake."

"Stop with all the talk. Since you've now splashed dirty water on me today, you must give me an explanation, or else I will not let this go." Qiao Chengying seemed prepared for a counterattack; there was a sneer and slight anger in his eyes, making him look far from flustered.

Qiao Chengying knew that even if Qiao Jing had indeed found the mother-son duo, he hadn't been involved at all throughout the process.

"Alright then. Even if you don’t want to see it, I’ll make sure you do." With a slight smile, Qiao Jing suddenly shouted: "Xie Dongguo, now you can come out."

Xie Dongguo

Why does this name sound so familiar! Qiao Chengying felt an inexplicable tightening in her heart!

At this moment, a man dressed in black stood up. He appeared to be around forty years old with a resolute face and distinct features.

Xie Dongguo was the security department director responsible for guarding the Qiao family mansion. For sixteen years, he had been diligently serving the Qiao family!

Sixteen years! This number made Qiao Chengying's facial muscles twitch!

"Mr. Xie Dongguo is the son of that driver involved in the accident back then. He was only twenty-three at the time," said Qiao Jing, looking at this pawn she had set up herself. "It took me more than two years to locate him and his mother and arrange for him to work within the Qiao household."

"I will always be grateful for your栽培 (cultivation), Miss." Xie Dongguo bowed respectfully.

The crowd was shocked and astonished; they did not expect Qiao Jing to have such a clever plan, arranging Xie Dongguo so openly in the Qiao family compound. If Qiao Chengying had orchestrated this from behind the scenes, it would be impossible for him to guess that Qiao Jing would pull off such a move!

"Do you really think just any random person can help you spin a story around your lie Nobody knows about the secret deal between you and Xie Dongguo!" sneered Qiao Chengying. He was indeed confident; although he had masterminded everything, it wasn't him who had made the clandestine arrangements with Xie Dongguo. Even if Xie Dongguo really were the son of that driver involved in the accident, there was no way he would point to Qiao Chengying as the culprit.

Qiao Huichen stood rooted to the spot, speechless. At this point, he could no longer control the course of events. Yet, deep down in his heart, there was a faint impulse driving him to uncover what had really happened back then and find out the true reason behind his most outstanding son's downfall.

"I knew you would say that, but unfortunately for you, it doesn't matter whether or not you admit it from now on," Qiao Jing said as she looked toward the door.

A middle-aged man wearing a magua coat walked in. He looked dispirited and dejected, his head drooping and eyes staring blankly at the ground. His body appeared weak, barely able to stand upright.

The atmosphere in the banquet hall suddenly froze as he entered; everyone felt their breaths becoming constricted!

Q Chengying's eyes widened even further. He could bet that this was by far the most shocking thing of his life!

Because, the person who walked in was none other than Tong Qigang! The man who had faithfully followed Q Chengying all these years and was known as Uncle Tong to the third generation of the Qiao family.

Tong Qigang, a martial arts master, enjoyed great prestige in Hong Kong. Even underworld figures addressed him respectfully as "Uncle." Could it be that someone with such status was also one of Qiao Jing's pawns This was too terrifying!

Over the years, Tong Qigang had been aware of countless secrets about Q Chengying and had accomplished numerous feats for him. Q Chengying trusted him implicitly. All those assassination attempts on his brother and bribery of the hit-and-run driver were carried out by Tong Qigang! But Q Chengying hadn't expected that in this critical moment, the person he once trusted most was turning around to stab him in the back!

If such a betrayal actually occurred, it would surely be fatal for Q Chengying. to exchange for something at the mission guild.""Actually, outsiders don't know the process of transferring mission points; only a few people within the guild are aware of it. Of course, these transf...
