The Abusive Novel System Pleads with Me to Resign

Chapter 31



When she said this, General Manager Qiao thought she was just bluffing, but Gao Yingli and Chairman Qiao didn't think so.

Since this woman could manipulate Gao Yingli's men without his knowledge, it was really hard to say what was going on now.

So Chairman Qiao quickly said, "Go outside and have a look."

The assistant immediately ran out. As a result, he found that there was no movement in the whole villa. The only thing he felt was that it was too quiet.

Yes, too quiet!

The assistant suddenly realized that when the Gao and Qiao families had a meeting today, each side brought some people to wait outside.

But now the number was half less. Looking closely, where had all their Qiao Group's people gone?

The assistant's scalp went numb, and he quickly returned to the meeting room.

"Chairman, all our people are gone."

Chairman Qiao subconsciously looked at Gao Yingli and said, "You're playing dirty tricks."

Gao Yingli looked puzzled on the surface and said, "Does Chairman Qiao suspect that I controlled your people?"

General Manager Qiao hurriedly said, "Who else could it be if not you? This is your territory. Could it be this woman who did it?"

He pointed at Shen Ying.

Gao Yingli was at a loss for words and felt speechless about this familiar scene.

It was really this woman who did it.

He scrutinized Shen Ying for a long time and still found it incredible, but he still said, "Where have the Qiao family's people gone?"

General Manager Qiao said, "Gao Yingli, you're still pretending to be stupid. You..."

Chairman Qiao said, "Shut up!"

Shen Ying smiled and said, "Of course, only someone from the Qiao family can quietly send away the Qiao family's people."

Gao Yingli suddenly realized and said, "And it must be someone whom Chairman Qiao absolutely trusts and is regarded as Chairman Qiao's mouthpiece in the Qiao family's camp."

Then he asked Chairman Qiao, "By the way, for such an important thing today, Chairman Qiao didn't bring Secretary Zhang with him."

Chairman Qiao's face showed hesitation, but he still didn't believe it. He said calmly, "Secretary Zhang had something urgent to do today, so he didn't come with me."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the meeting room was opened, and a person walked in.

It was unexpectedly Secretary Zhang whom Chairman Qiao said couldn't come.

His appearance made Chairman Qiao's expression go blank for a few seconds. Then he thought of something and roared angrily, "Did you send the people away?"

Secretary Zhang replied, "Yes, I told all the bodyguards, the secretary team, and the drivers that Chairman Qiao brought to leave first."

Secretary Zhang had been with Chairman Qiao for many years. He was very capable and deeply trusted by Chairman Qiao. Outside, he was Chairman Qiao's mouthpiece.

No one would question the instructions he issued.

Therefore, the people Chairman Qiao brought left here under his false instructions. With the cooperation of Assistant Liu, the people inside didn't even know about it.

Chairman Qiao stood up directly, stared at Secretary Zhang, and looked incredulous. "What did you say you did?"

"Did you collude with Gao Yingli to trap us here? Do you know what you're doing?"

Gao Yingli opened his mouth. So this stupid family just assumed that he was the mastermind, right?

Secretary Zhang didn't answer Chairman Qiao.

Shen Ying beside him said, "What to do? Of course, it's to fulfill the obligation of every citizen and assist the police in arresting criminals."

Chairman Qiao was so angry that he laughed. He looked at Shen Ying and said, "Criminal?

"Miss Shen, why don't you check the official identity certification of me? A well - known entrepreneur, an active taxpayer, and a famous philanthropist. How can you frame me as a criminal?"

Hearing this, Shen Ying laughed loudly and said, "Come on. The tax you evaded, once the penalty is calculated, is almost enough to build an aircraft carrier."

Chairman Qiao: "..."

Shen Ying: "The liquidation should have already started, right? I believe the whole network is waiting for a figure."

General Manager Qiao said, "Dad, this woman is just talking nonsense. Let's leave first."

Before they took two steps, the door of the meeting room was kicked shut by Assistant Liu and locked from the outside.

Gao Yingli: "..."

He decided to fire him later.

Shen Ying sat on the chair and stared at the Qiao father and son. "Didn't I say? You can't go anywhere before the police come."

"Even if you were in a cooperative relationship just a second ago, in the face of the law, Young Master Gao will still choose to stand on the side of justice."

General Manager Qiao said, "Gao Yingli, I fuck your mother. So you tricked us here with this intention."

"You dare to restrict our freedom. You don't seem to put the Qiao family in your eyes. I just said why you agreed so readily. So you wanted to play this trick."

Gao Yingli took a deep breath and said to Shen Ying, "What you want to do, do it quickly."

"Don't let this stupid guy talk anymore."

He wouldn't cooperate with the Qiao family anymore, okay? Although he didn't have much sincerity at the beginning, he really didn't expect them to be so stupid as to lower his perception.

At least Chairman Qiao wasn't completely muddled. He scrutinized Shen Ying.

He realized that he might have made a fatal mistake all along, which was regarding this woman as a simple accessory to contain Lu Linwei.

Although he still didn't know what she had done, the intuition extracted from his years of experience was already ringing an alarm.

He asked Shen Ying, "How can Miss Shen be sure that the police will come?"

Shen Ying said, "Does Chairman Qiao think that his life doesn't deserve a pair of handcuffs?

"The first time I saw Chairman Qiao, I thought you shouldn't be here. You should be in jail.

"I'm too lazy to talk about the things that are too far - away and fragmented. Just the crimes of murder, bribery, and raping minors are enough for you to stay in jail for a lifetime, right?"

Chairman Qiao was furious and said, "Nonsense."

Shen Ying pressed down her hand and said, "Calm down, calm down. Of course, I have my reasons for saying this."

"Take Secretary Zhang for example." Shen Ying's eyes fell on Secretary Zhang who came later.

"The first time I saw Secretary Zhang was when General Manager Lu took me to ask Chairman Qiao for compensation. At that time, I thought Secretary Zhang was too capable.

"For the first time, when Chairman Qiao evaluated me, how much compensation to offer, and the second time, when I had the halo of General Manager Lu's fiancée, how much to offer. And the subsequent formalities.

"Throughout the whole process, Secretary Zhang and Chairman Qiao didn't have the slightest communication, but he could always accurately understand Chairman Qiao's intentions. Besides extraordinary ability and loyalty, there must be another condition to meet, right?"

"Young Master Gao, what do you think it is?" Shen Ying suddenly asked Gao Yingli.

Gao Yingli said, "Experience in handling similar things."

Shen Ying said, "Yes, that is to say, it's quite normal for Chairman Qiao to handle different women with different prices.

"I thought Secretary Zhang looked decent and shouldn't be the kind of person who is willing to handle dirty things. After careful consideration, I found that Secretary Zhang seems to have recognized a thief as his father."

Hearing this, a look of panic flashed in Chairman Qiao's eyes, as if it had been conveyed from a long - distant time. But it was only for a moment, and no one noticed.

Because everyone's attention was on Shen Ying's words.

Gao Yingli asked curiously with a strange look on his face, "What kind of look did you say?"

Shen Ying said, "Recognizing a thief as his father."

She roughly calculated Secretary Zhang's fate chart and then said firmly, "The fate taboo enters the Parent Palace, and it is the Wenchang Taboo. The officially registered or commonly recognized parents are not his biological parents. And when it meets the Ovis, Tianyao, and Yinsha, the person he recognizes as his father is not a good person.

"And there is a high probability that there is a human - life dispute involved."

"So I asked General Manager Lu to investigate, and as a result, I found that Secretary Zhang is actually Chairman Qiao's adopted son."

"His parents were once employees of Qiao's. But they died in a car accident. He was adopted and raised by Chairman Qiao, then joined Qiao's. He is very capable and deeply trusted by Chairman Qiao."

Shen Ying smiled and said, "But all these are bullshit. Secretary Zhang's parents could never have died in a car accident."

"It must be because of a lust - related dispute. They got involved with villains and died a violent death."

"So I just followed this train of thought and checked Chairman Qiao's whereabouts at that time."

Shen Ying's gaze fell on Chairman Qiao. "You won't believe it. On the day of Secretary Zhang's parents' so - called 'car accident', Chairman Qiao was fishing at sea with his younger brother, who is Qiao Mingfei's father, Mr. Qiao the Third."

"Mr. Lu heard a different version from Mr. Qiao the Third than what Chairman Qiao told us."

"It was clearly that Chairman Qiao lusted after a female employee and raped her. When her husband caught him in the act, he was beaten up. In a fit of rage, he ordered his bodyguards to beat the couple to death and then staged it as a car accident."

After saying that, Shen Ying laughed. "I was wondering why even though Qiao Mingfei's father is such a good - for - nothing who has squandered all his shares and funds, Chairman Qiao still keeps him in a calm manner and even lets his daughter be the vice - young lady in his family."

"So that's the reason."

Gao Yingli was completely stunned. He looked at Shen Ying, then at Chairman Qiao and Secretary Zhang. Intellectually, he thought it was absurd.

But at the same time, he knew very well that Secretary Zhang wouldn't be convinced by just a baseless rumor or the testimony of a good - for - nothing like Mr. Qiao the Third.

Sure enough, Chairman Qiao stared at Secretary Zhang and asked, "You believe this?"

"You believe the random words of an unknown woman?"

Secretary Zhang said expressionlessly, "Of course I don't believe it."

Chairman Qiao breathed a sigh of relief. But the next second, Secretary Zhang continued, "So Mr. Lu gave me other evidence."

He looked up, staring at Chairman Qiao fiercely and approaching step by step, as if he was going to kill someone.

"The original autopsy report of my parents before it was tampered with, the photos of your so - called alibi that night, and the gold necklace that the bodyguard who disposed of the bodies stole from my mother."

Many things remain in the dark because no one ever suspects. But once the result is determined and then traced back, with Lu Linwei's level of influence, it's not difficult at all.

At this time, Shen Ying pushed a mobile phone over.

Seeing this, Gao Yingli was speechless, and Chairman Qiao hesitated before picking up the phone.

There were messages sent by Shen Ying on it, addressed to Qiao Mingfei.

The content was simple. It was nothing more than a few messages exposing that she was the mastermind behind Qiao's current predicament, along with some incisive evidence.

It also threatened that once she got out, she would expose this matter.

Shen Ying smiled and said, "Sending these to Miss Qiao is not for anything else. I just want her to be busy protecting herself in the next few days and ignore her father, so that Mr. Lu can 'persuade' Mr. Qiao the Third without being noticed."

"After all, Miss Qiao is one of the few smart people in the younger generation of the Qiao family. If she discovers the clue in advance, it will be a bit difficult."

"But smart people do know how to protect themselves. I believe she has already contacted Mr. Qiao the Second and Mr. Qiao the Fourth by now."

Shen Ying signaled Assistant Liu to turn off the signal jammer, and the whole villa regained its signal.

She smiled at Chairman Qiao and said, "Since I know the crimes Chairman Qiao has committed and have won over Secretary Zhang, who can provide strong evidence."

"Then may I ask Chairman Qiao, how big an event can these pieces of evidence trigger during the half - day when you disappear?"

Chairman Qiao was sweating profusely and couldn't say a word. He was quickly calculating the worst - case scenario in his mind.

As soon as the signal jammer was turned off, the mobile phones of the Qiao family father and son or their assistants in the room rang crazily.

An assistant hurriedly answered a call. His face changed, and he quickly opened the news website.

He handed the tablet to Chairman Qiao.

The Qiao family father and son quickly took it and saw a series of [Breaking] on the hot search, all related to Qiao's. They almost fainted on the spot.

[Qiao's tax evasion.]

[Evidence of Chairman Qiao of Qiao's murdering someone exposed.]

[The devil is among us. Chairman Qiao of Qiao's sexually assaulted minors in the name of charity.]

[Qiao bribed someone.]

[Qiao's son fled after a drunk - driving accident.]

[The XX police have confirmed the arrest. Now Chairman Qiao and his son are missing and are suspected of attempting to smuggle out of the country.]

Chairman Qiao staggered a bit and propped himself up on the armrest to keep from falling.

He quickly tried to dial a number, but before he could find it, he heard Shen Ying say, "Trying to call your protector to remove the hot search, silence the media, and cancel the arrest operation?"

"Save your energy. He has already been arrested. Didn't you check the bribery section? There are complete video and audio recordings as evidence."

"I heard from Secretary Zhang that you told him to secretly record this, aiming to keep a handle on that politician in case he became disobedient in the future."

At this time, Chairman Qiao's eyes bulged. His son beside him kept shaking his head desperately and said, "No, it's impossible. It's all not true."

Shen Ying said, "Oh, by the way, Chairman Qiao doesn't have to worry about Mr. Lu. Mr. Lu has been working hard to short Qiao's these days. He must have reaped a lot today."

Lu Linwei's recent crazy revenge and short - selling behavior didn't arouse suspicion. People just thought he was crazy to place such a big bet. If Qiao's managed to stabilize, he would suffer huge losses.

Chairman Qiao gasped and said, "No wonder, no wonder that boy Lu Linwei has been acting crazy these days."

Shen Ying sneered and said, "You thought you finally found an opportunity, right?"

"Oh, by the way, the money Mr. Lu used for this operation also includes my one billion, which was given to me by Chairman Qiao."

"Thank you again, Chairman Qiao, for your generosity."

Chairman Qiao stared at Shen Ying fiercely, then with agility beyond his age, he pounced on her, trying to choke her neck.

But he was hit under the armpit, and his strength immediately dissipated. It was Gao Yingli who made the move.

Chairman Qiao stared at Gao Yingli and said, "Good, good. Truly, the younger generation is formidable."

"I thought that because of the old feud between your Gao family and the Lu family, you would never cooperate. I underestimated the young people."

"You actually joined hands with Lu Linwei. Our Qiao family deserves to lose."

Gao Yingli: "..."

Qiao's is a behemoth. Even if it won't collapse immediately, the other side acted so quickly that they stirred up a huge storm in an instant.

They lured them here and made them miss the golden time to deal with the public opinion. Coupled with the crazy attack from the Lu family outside, it was no problem to take down the father and son.

They could also make a fortune in the stock market and make Qiao's market value evaporate by half.

Once the Qiao family father and son fell, the family would fight among themselves for control. Coupled with tax problems, public resistance, and stock market losses.

The other families would surely pounce on the Qiao family and tear it apart.

Chairman Qiao slumped to the ground and said, "It's over."

At this time, the sound of police sirens came from outside the window. The long - hidden sins of the Qiao family father and son finally couldn't be covered up. In the face of strong public opinion, money and power finally lost their effect.

The Qiao family father and son were taken away in handcuffs, and the whole villa finally quieted down.

Shen Ying sat down, put her legs on the coffee table, and said to Gao Yingli, "Aren't you going to eat?"

Only then did Gao Yingli come to his senses. His look at her was so complicated that it was indescribable.

"Did you plan all this?"

Before Shen Ying could answer, he continued, "When did it start? When Qiao Mingfei approached you?"

"No, even earlier—you were probably scheming more back when the billion-yuan compensation was involved."

Gao Yingli walked over and stood before her, looking down at her from his height, yet feeling like he was the one being scrutinized.

"No wonder you showed no fear when I took you away. It was all part of your plan."

"I'm curious—if I hadn’t gotten involved in the Qiao family’s affairs, if I hadn’t brought you back, what would you have done?"

Shen Ying met his gaze and replied, "How could that be? The opportunity was right in front of you, and I even fanned the flames."

"With a cunning poacher like you, there was no way you wouldn’t take the bait."

She ​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​‍tugged on Gao Yingli’s tie, pulling him down onto the sofa.

Staring at him as if to emphasize her point, she said, "Understand this? You didn’t kidnap me. I wanted to stay at your place for a while, so I chose you."

Gao Yingli felt an electric jolt run through his body.

All the subtle details suddenly became clear—her unapologetic cunning, her fearless provocations, the mysterious way she slipped through danger time and again, and how ruthlessly she had exposed his true nature.

So this was the kind of person she was!

A strange, almost morbid thrill and delight surged through him. For the first time, he envied that fool Lu Linwei’s luck.

A mere chance encounter had led him to someone like her.

But fate had a cruel sense of timing. Just as jealousy began to simmer in Gao Yingli’s heart—

Assistant Liu’s voice came from outside: "Mr. Gao, Mr. Lu is here."

Gao Yingli reacted as if caught in an affair, hastily pulling Shen Ying up from the sofa. "Go upstairs."

Shen Ying scoffed. "Seriously? Now the kidnap victim has to cooperate with you?"

Gao Yingli snapped, "You literally just said all that less than two minutes ago!"

"I’m the one who got manipulated by your schemes!"

Shen Ying shrugged. "Well, your role as a tool is over now. Time to bow out gracefully."

Gao Yingli narrowed his eyes. "Have you forgotten our agreement?"

Shen Ying feigned realization. "Oh, you mean the one where I was forced into unpaid labor under threat?"

It always circled back to money.

But Gao Yingli knew that without her cooperation, he no longer had any control over her.

Finally, he conceded through gritted teeth. "Fine. I’ll pay."

A satisfied smile curled on Shen Ying’s lips. The system remained silent.

And just then—

BANG!

Lu Linwei kicked the door open.
