Chapter 36 Someone Was Manipulating It All Along
"Oh, is something wrong?"
“When we arrived in Hong County, we quickly found Tian Zhigao. He had a gambling habit, and under our inducement, he lost one million in two days.”
Tian Zhenzhen didn't know much about her adoptive father.
Or rather, aside from some painful memories, I am not close to my adoptive parents.
Especially after high school, their attitude towards her worsened. Before, they only favored boys over girls, but after high school, they completely ignored her.
Therefore, she was genuinely unaware that Tian Zhigao had a gambling habit, which is quite laughable.
After she started high school, she saw her adoptive father very few times.
"One million should be enough to make their family suffer, right? Did something happen?" Tian Zhenzhen asked, puzzled.
"Originally, we thought the same as you, but we didn't expect Tian Zhigao to pay back the one million the next day."
At first, we thought we had underestimated him; Tian Zhigao might have a million in savings.
They encouraged him to recoup his losses, but after he won two rounds, he quickly got carried away again.
This time, to prevent him from making a comeback, Tian Zhigao lost a full three million before stopping.
Brother Wang never expected things to go so smoothly. This Tian Zhigao is not only stupid, but also has no self-control at all.
Once you get carried away, you don't care about anything else.
"Upon seeing that he had lost three million, Tian Zhigao was visibly panicked."
They even claimed they deliberately cheated him out of money and had no intention of paying him back.
After being brutally beaten at the casino, Tian Zhigao made a phone call and soon paid back the three million.
Having learned from these two experiences, Tian Zhigao has been staying at home lately and is very vigilant. I estimate he won't be able to complete the task you assigned him.
"A thing can be done once or twice, but not a third time," is a rule that Brother Wang and the man in the flowery shirt share.
If they do it too often, it will inevitably arouse suspicion, so they can no longer take action against Tian Zhigao.
"Oh, so you can pay back three million after just one phone call?"
"Yes, we were quite surprised at the time."
Afterwards, we went to the service center to investigate the phone number Tian Zhigao had made, and found it was a Beijing number.
Brother Wang told Tian Zhenzhen everything he knew.
In Beijing, Tian Zhenzhen remembered that her adoptive parents' family had no relatives in Beijing.
Then who would give him three million?
Furthermore, the adoptive parents did not have stable jobs, and their family had been farmers for generations, so how could they have a million?
If I had to name a relative in Beijing, it would be the fake heiress.
Thinking of this, Tian Zhenzhen felt a chill envelop her.
Was the true heiress's fate already manipulated? Otherwise, how can the source of the money be explained?
"Miss Tian, this matter was not handled well by our brothers, so we will waive the remaining payment."
When Brother Wang saw that Tian Zhenzhen didn't say anything, he assumed that Tian Zhenzhen was angry because the mission hadn't been completed.
They made a lot of money by directly cutting off the final payment.
"No need, you don't need to worry about this. Just send me the phone number you found, and I'll transfer the remaining balance to you directly."
You must keep this a secret; no one is allowed to tell anyone.
"Don't worry, Miss Tian. In our line of work, if we didn't have this much integrity, no one would ask us for favors."
After hanging up the phone, Tian Zhenzhen really wanted to know an answer: if someone had already interfered with the fate of the real heiress, then the whole thing was too terrifying.
While lamenting the fate of the true heiress, Tian Zhenzhen clenched her fist.
Now that she has become Tian Zhenzhen, no matter what, her fate is definitely not to be hacked to death.
Night had fallen. Tian Zhenzhen held a glass of red wine, lay on the sofa, and looked out at the city lights through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
She assigned Tian Daqiang two tasks and waited for the results tonight.
Inside a luxury villa in Yue City, Qin Hongzheng knocked on Chen Leyi's door.
Although the two were husband and wife, ever since they got married, Chen Leyi felt the difference in their status and vented her resentment on Qin Hongzheng.
She felt that if he hadn't seduced her back then...
How could she possibly be living such a miserable life now?
Although her so-called miserable life is a standard of living that many ordinary people can never achieve in their entire lives.
But that didn't stop her from growing to hate Qin Hongzheng more and more, thinking he was useless.
She had been somewhat more restrained in her temper before, but since her eldest brother's family died, she has also gained the right to inherit the Greenwood Group.
Their attitude towards Qin Hongzheng became even worse; they stopped pretending altogether.
Hearing Qin Hongzheng knock on the door, he impatiently went to open it.
"Qin Hongzheng, why are you knocking on my door in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"
"Chen Leyi, is Qin Feng still your son? He's never suffered since he was a child, and he's still in detention. How can you still be sleeping?"
Qin Hong was furious when he saw Chen Leyi's nonchalant attitude.
He knew that his marriage with Chen Leyi was practically over, but Qin Feng was their son, and he was quite angry to see that Chen Leyi didn't care.
"Who said I don't care about my son? If you're so capable, then rescue him. If you're not, then stay put."
I will get my son out, so don't try to tell me what to do.
After Chen Leyi finished speaking, she immediately closed the door.
She didn't even bother to give Qin Hongzheng a friendly look when he questioned her.
If you're incompetent, don't cause trouble. You're such a coward who only knows how to blame women when something goes wrong.
Chen Leyi was still worried about her son. Considering that a day had passed since she made the phone call yesterday, she figured there must be good news already.
Chen Leyi dialed a number directly, but before she could even ask any questions, a cold voice came from the other end of the line.
"Don't contact me recently. All the people I contacted are dead. You should hold off on dealing with the people you need to deal with."
"Ah, how could this be?" Chen Leyi was somewhat surprised. After all, this is a time of peace, how could there be such a large number of casualties?
"Who knows? They've offended countless people doing these things. It's not surprising that their entire family was wiped out. Let's not contact each other for now. I'll contact you again once things have calmed down."
The person on the other end of the phone hung up before Chen Leyi could answer.
Chen Leyi gripped her phone tightly.
Damn it, why is Tian Zhenzhen so lucky? I couldn't deal with her head-on, so I hired someone to assassinate her, but she was so lucky.
Damn it, damn it all!
Just as Chen Leyi was filled with rage, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her head and collapsed to the ground unconscious.
Then Tian Daqiang finally appeared.
Tian Daqiang injected Chen Leyi directly, and Chen Leyi, who was lying unconscious on the ground, opened her eyes.
Seeing a stranger like Tian Daqiang appear in the room, she showed no surprise whatsoever, like a doll oblivious to the outside world.
This is another use of truth serum. Even if a person is unconscious, as long as truth serum is injected, they will answer questions and will have no memory of it afterwards.
As Tian Daqiang questioned her, Chen Leyi had no more secrets from him.
Tian Zhenzhen heard all of this clearly through the video call.
