My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early

Chapter 552: Chapter 551: Song Zhizhi Is Suspected (Third Update)

Qin Jingxiang sat in Jun Mingyu’s sedan.

No one spoke in the car.

Jun Mingyu took her to a very secluded coffee shop.

Apart from them, there was no one else in the café, not even the staff.

At this moment in the private room, two cups of coffee were already prepared.

Jun Mingyu appeared very gentlemanly.

He pulled the chair out for Qin Jingxiang, invited her to sit down, and then he took his seat across the table.

Qin Jingxiang was not one to beat around the bush, especially when it comes to wasting time with unimportant people. To be precise, besides Ji Baijian, everyone else in the world was not that important to her. She came straight to the point, “Mr. Jun, please feel free to speak.”

“Alright.” Jun Mingyu didn’t beat around the bush either, “What do you think is the intention of Mrs. Jun promising you to me?”

“I don’t know, but I’m very clear, it’s definitely not a good thing.”

“The goal is to ensnare me through you.”

Qin Jingxiang’s eyes faintly moved.

“Has your father ever done any dirty deals under the table?” Jun Mingyu asked.

Qin Jingxiang’s face changed instantly, “What do you want?”

“Rather than waiting for Lady Jun to expose you, it would be better for Miss Qin to persuade your father to turn himself in.”

“Mr. Jun, it seems you are asking too much!” Qin Jingxiang said solemnly.

“For Miss Qin and her family, it’s the best choice. First, you should be aware that Lady Jun is targeting your family. Your family cannot hold onto their current position, and might even be accused of more fabricated crimes. Secondly, Mr. Jun promising you to me was all because he wanted to annihilate me along with your family. I must say, this also implicates the innocent. Of course, more importantly, if I step down, your family won’t have a chance to fight back, but as long as I’m still here, you can at least rely on me.”

“So, Mr. Jun, you mean if my father turned himself in, once you secure your position, you would help us clear our family name?”

“You could say that.”

“Why should I believe you?”

“Because you have no other choice.” Jun Mingyu replied, punctuating every word, “Actually, Miss Qin, being as intelligent as you are, should also understand that the best current method for preserving your family is to have your father turn himself in and retire from the stage of history for good. This way, at least all of you won’t be implicated. And as for your father’s charges, honestly, it might amount to three to five years of jail time. With a good attitude of admission, he might get out within three years. Trading three years for the safety of your entire family, I think it should be worth it.”

Qin Jingxiang scrutinized Jun Mingyu.

And Jun Mingyu let her examine him without any hindrance.

“What is your relationship with Ji Baijian?” Qin Jingxiang suddenly changed the topic.

Jun Mingyu smiled, “Miss Qin, even to this point you can’t forget about Ji Baijian, this really makes me a little jealous.”

“I’m not joking with you. Please answer my question directly, Mr. Jun.”

“All I can tell you is that Ji Baijian is my man.”

“Was this plan masterminded by Ji Baijian?”

“Why do you ask?”

“No one else but Ji Baijian could be this clever.” Qin Jingxiang articulated every word.

Jun Mingyu admitted that he was truly struck by her words.

But Qin Jingxiang was indeed clever, she figured out almost instantaneously that it was indeed Ji Baijian who had suggested him to proceed in this way.

In fact, he had been thinking all of last night about how to clear his ties with the Qin family and how to prevent Leng Wanqing from easily succeeding with her scheme. He had thought of many ways, but all seemed somewhat far-fetched. But today in the morning, Ji Baijian presented him with a simple solution.

Once Qin Wenguo steps down…

The engagement will naturally be annulled.

No official family would want to marry a criminal’s daughter.

Once Qin Wenguo steps down, Leng Wanqing’s plan to use him will be entirely blocked.

Leng Wanqing would have no choice but to run all risks and choose the only route for her son to take over as the dean, that route… was their trap.

Without receiving an answer from Jun Mingyu, Qin Jingxiang took it as affirmation.

She knew it.

Ji Baijian had to be behind Jun Mingyu.

She pressed on, “What’s the current relationship between Ji Baijian and Song Zhizhi?”

“Are you so keen to get hold of Ji Baijian?”

“Yes.” Qin Jingxiang didn’t bother to hide it.

“I can’t tell you about their current relationship, but I can assuredly tell you that if you really want to break them apart, now is the best time. It all depends on how Miss Qin chooses.”

He left it at that.

If Qin Jingxiang was as intelligent as he suspected, she would definitely understand.

“Alright, I understand.” Qin Jingxiang nodded.

So, there is indeed a rift between Ji Baijian and Song Zhizhi right now.

Song Zhizhi is indeed relying on Leng Wanqing.

Song Zhizhi is indeed the most selfish woman in the world.

For her own personal safety, she even abandoned Ji Baijian without hesitation.

She will make this woman regret it.

Regret her current choice.

Qin Jingxiang stood up from her chair, speaking to Jun Mingyu, “I will go persuade my father.”

“Miss Qin is indeed insightful.”

“Mr. Jun, please do not forget your promise. Once you ascend to power, you must find a way to bring my father out.”

“My word is my bond.”

With that, Qin Jingxiang turned and left without another word.

After she left.

From behind a partition in the cafe, Ji Baijian emerged.

As Jun Mingyu looked at Baijian, he laughed, “Qin Jingxiang is indeed intelligent, quick to understand.”

Baijian nodded slightly, he had anticipated this and did not feel any joy worthy of celebration.

“Do you think Leng Wanqing would act according to our wishes if we were to topple Qin Wenguo now?”

“She will.” Ji Baijian affirmed, “It all depends on the Dean’s performance.”

“You mean to say, let my father abdicate in my favor now.”

“Since your father is critically ill, isn’t it natural for him to leave a will at this moment? Once Leng Wanqing learns that your father intends to pass his position to you, do you think she can remain idle? She will choose the most direct method and target you and the Dean directly!”

“You’re so sure?” Jun Mingyu was somewhat doubtful.

“I’m sure.” Ji Baijian’s face was dark.

Leng Wanqing’s style is fast and ruthless.

She detests dragging things out.

Once she feels threatened, she will choose the most direct method, to kill him!

This time.

He would let her fall into the trap herself!

It was time to retaliate for her past crimes against him!

…

Yanshang Country has been rather restless lately.

This unrest is entirely manifested in its Commercial Management institution.

Who could have expected, or even seen it as inevitable, that all the important leaders of Commercial Management would fall at once.

The only survivor, Qin Wenguo, was no exception.

Qin Wenguo was imprisoned.

It was said that he had carried out illegal deals in private and had been troubled by his conscience, so he chose to confess.

Before his confession, Qin Wenguo left a long letter. Its main content was his regret for breaking the law for money, feeling guilty every time he thought about it. Especially now that he was in a high-ranking position in Commercial Management and had the full support of the official family, including marrying his daughter to the young master of the official family. Feeling increasingly unworthy of the honor he had gained, after serious consideration, he chose to turn himself in. He only wished to face the world with a clear conscience again after being punished in prison.

Upon hearing the news, everyone was shocked.

On one hand, some people believe that Qin Wenguo deserved his punishment for using his position for personal gain. On the other hand, many more people showed great approval of Qin Wenguo’s actions. His admission of guilt at the peak of his career showed an incredible amount of resolve, earning him admiration. For a time, many even urged the court to give a lenient sentence!

Qin Wenguo turned misfortune into a blessing.

In the long run, he indeed made the most correct choice.

When Leng Wanqing saw the news, her face changed dramatically.

Whenever Leng Wanqing is in a bad mood, Jun Minghan dares not make a sound.

He stood there motionless.

“I didn’t expect Qin Wenguo to be this clever!” Leng Wanqing said harshly.

There was also a feeling of anger, as if someone had suddenly stabbed her.

Jun Minghan said, “Based on our understanding of Qin Wenguo, I don’t think he would be clever enough to do this. Could something have gone wrong in the process?”

Leng Wanqing’s eyes narrowed.

She said to her son, “Apart from the two of us, only Song Zhizhi knew of our scheme!”

Jinghan’s face grew dark.

Could it be that Song Zhizhi was backstabbing them?
