Chapter 17 The Second Young Master Loses His Temper
When Lu Qianqian saw Rong Changqing, she felt a sharp pain in her bottom and instinctively covered it with her hand, looking at him awkwardly: "Haha, Second Young Master, what brings you here?"
Rong Changqing snatched the knife from Qi Tiao's hand and suddenly held it against Lu Qianqian's neck.
Lu Qianqian was so frightened that her face changed drastically. She looked at him in disbelief: "Second Young Master, what are you going to do?"
Seeing this, Shichijo silently ran out.
Rong Changqing waved the knife back and forth across Lu Qianqian's face: "Aren't you supposed to be pretty brave? I don't want you to get disfigured."
Lu Qianqian stood rooted to the spot, afraid that if he were to shake his hand, she would be disfigured: "Second Young Master, let's talk this out."
"But Zhang Jingyao won't talk to you nicely."
"..."
"You know you're afraid?"
Lu Qianqian nodded frantically: "Yes, I'm scared."
Rong Changqing immediately dropped the knife and suddenly took her hand affectionately: "I don't want this to happen a second time."
Lu Qianqian nodded blankly. After being so frightened, she dared not say again: "I won't."
"Very good." Rong Changqing held her hand with one hand and tidied her hair with the other, leading her out of the warehouse and into the car to go home.
……
At this moment, the Zhang family was extremely furious!
Zhang Jingyao was suddenly arrested by the police, all because of Lu Qianqian. How despicable!
Zhang's mother was furious: "What exactly is Lu Qianqian trying to do? Does she think she can threaten me into begging her to come back? The Zhang family will never want a daughter-in-law like that!"
Rong Wanru sat next to Zhang's mother. She had come here for dinner today, but she was surprised to hear such news. She felt both happy and worried.
The good news is that Zhang Jingyao was arrested, so there's now a scapegoat for this!
Worried that Zhang Jingyao would betray her, she had to stay here and gather all the useful information.
Zhang Shengqin was much calmer than his mother. He immediately contacted a lawyer to persuade her. The news he received was: "It is said that Jingyao kidnapped Lu Qianqian and was caught on the spot by the police. Moreover, Jingyao admitted that the video was fake and that the female protagonist in the video was also present."
Rong Wanru was the first to object: "That's impossible. How could Jingyao do such a thing? It must be a trap set by Lu Qianqian. Shengqin, you must find a way to rescue Jingyao."
As Rong Wanru spoke, she gripped her mother's hand tightly and kept giving her meaningful glances: "Auntie, you were involved in the fake video too. We absolutely can't let anything happen to either of us."
After exchanging a glance with Rong Wanru, Zhang's mother calmly looked away and then said to Zhang Shengqin, "Shengqin, go and pull some strings. Your sister absolutely cannot go to jail. Also, Lu Qianqian is really an eyesore. Find a way to get her in!"
Seeing this, Zhang Shengqin firmly believed that Lu Qianqian was behind it all. His sister had no reason to do such a thing; it was a complete frame-up: "Mom, don't worry, I will absolutely not let anything happen to Jingyao."
Seeing her son's assurance, Zhang's mother finally felt relieved: "How could there be such a despicable woman as Lu Qianqian in this world? Not only is she shameless, but her methods are also so dirty. It's truly our misfortune to have gotten involved with her."
Hearing this, Zhang Shengqin lowered his head in guilt, but felt even more disgusted with Lu Qianqian: "Mom, it's all my fault. I was deceived by her before. Don't worry, I will definitely not be lenient with her in the future."
Rong Wanru was very satisfied with this answer and reached out to shake his hand affectionately: "Shengqin, this is not your fault. Who doesn't encounter a couple of scoundrels when they are young? As long as we treat each other well and work together, even the biggest difficulties will be overcome."
Zhang Shengqin grasped her hand in return: "Wanru, how can you be so good?"
Rong Wanru's smile widened, and she leaned into his arms: "Afterwards, you will discover even more of my good qualities."
……
“Zhang Jingyao is suspected of defamation, kidnapping, and intentional injury. Kidnapping alone could carry a sentence of more than ten years or life imprisonment. Moreover, she falls under the category of multiple offenses, so her sentence will only be heavier.”
Zhang Liangzhi sat in Villa No. 8 of the Imperial Palace, drinking tea and talking about the case: "This case is the most boring one I've ever worked on."
He did not demonstrate any extraordinary personal ability.
Rong Changqing leaned lazily against the sofa, idly playing with Lu Qianqian's hair on the seat next to him: "Isn't it too easy for them to end like this?"
Lu Qianqian snatched her hair back from his hands. If she kept playing like this, she would lose her hair and go bald!
Zhang Liangzhi asked, "What else do you want to do?"
"I'll let you live in Villa No. 9 for a year. You can have fun with Qianqian, how about it?" Rong Changqing offered him a huge temptation.
Immediately, even Lu Qianqian looked over in confusion: "Play? Play what?"
Rong Changqing then casually grabbed a strand of her hair and played with it: "How could the Zhang family possibly just stand by and watch Zhang Jingyao go to jail? They would definitely spend a huge amount of money and connections."
Zhang Liangzhi continued, "But the officials currently involved in this case would absolutely not accept their bribes."
After all, the other party is Rong Changqing, who would dare?
Lu Qianqian snatched her hair back again and asked suspiciously, "So, you mean that in the end, the Zhang family will definitely come looking for me when they have nowhere else to turn?"
Rong Changqing nodded in satisfaction: "Qianqian is quite smart."
Lu Qianqian blushed instantly, cough cough, unable to resist the praise.
Zhang Liangzhi felt like he'd been fed a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), and decided to finish this cup of tea before moving: "I was just planning to go back to China to develop my career. Since you're willing to let me live in Villa No. 9, then I won't be polite. Sister-in-law, if you need anything in the future, just call me!"
Lu Qianqian was utterly embarrassed. Sister-in-law?
Upon seeing this, Rong Changqing explained to her, "Liangzhi and I have been brothers for over twenty years, so it's normal for him to call you sister-in-law."
Lu Qianqian touched her nose. It wasn't that she thought the way she addressed him was wrong, but rather that she felt very shy.
"Liangzhi, please stay for dinner. Tonight, Qitiao specially made braised cucumbers in oil." Rong Changqing warmly invited him, "Consider it a welcome dinner for you."
Lu Qianqian's face turned green. Why did she feel that the dish of braised cucumber in oil was a veiled insult?
Zhang Liangzhi sneered, "I've been back for a whole day and night, and you're only now giving me a welcome-back dinner with braised cucumbers? Why didn't you just make stir-fried ham sausages!"
Lu Qianqian gasped in shock. Was this Attorney Zhang one of their own kind?
Rong Changqing laughed out loud: "If you want to eat, I can have Qi Tiao prepare it for you, but this braised cucumber is specially made for Qianqian."
Suddenly, Lu Qianqian froze, a bad feeling creeping over her.
Rong Changqing reached out and gently stroked the tip of her nose: "Yes, it's the cucumber that was on the bedside table this morning."
