Chapter 477 One After The Other
Song Shijing reminded her indifferently. “Old Madam Qiao, let me remind you that if you don’t tell the truth, you can’t blame our president for being vicious. There aren’t many companies left under the Qiao family’s name. There are only three more. Let me tell you again, we won’t touch the companies left behind by Madam Xia Yunqiu. After all, those companies were left behind by Young Madam’s mother. They’re the hard work of our president’s mother-in-law. Those companies will be left to Young Madam in the future.”
“But the Qiao family…” Song Shijing looked regretful. “President, I’m afraid Old Madam Qiao won’t tell the truth. There’s nothing left in the Qiao family. Everything will probably be destroyed after we burn a few more documents. How boring.”
Old Madam Qiao’s body swayed and she almost fell to the floor. Then, she glared fiercely at Qiao Xi and forcefully endured the anger in her heart. “Xi Xi, the Qiao family is your home too!”
“Old Madam Qiao, our president’s time is limited. If you continue to delay and anger the president, your Qiao family will lose everything!” Old Madam Qiao’s face turned pale, while her heart thumped violently. Qiao Xi, that little b*tch! Why didn’t she tell her family that she had married Gu Zheng? Shouldn’t she take the initiative to give the Qiao family a sum of money to tide over the difficult times and bring benefits to the family?
“Old Madam Qiao, our president just wants to know the truth. Why did you want our young madam to marry Young Master Zhong? Was it just for that sum of money? If it was for money, you have so many other options. Why did you have to choose to marry Young Madam to the sadistic Zhong Ming? Or is Mr. Zhong telling the truth? Did the Qiao family want Young Master Zhong to torture our young madam to death?”
Old Madam Qiao was shocked. “No, no! He’s spouting nonsense!”
Then, the flames burned again. A piece of paper turned to ashes, which also meant that one more of the Qiao family’s businesses had gone under.
Old Madam Qiao felt like she had a fishbone stuck in her throat. She forcefully endured the rage in her heart and hurriedly explained, “We didn’t intend to torture Xi Xi to death. We just thought that Xi Xi’s character was too stubborn, so we wanted to…”
Song Shijing took out another document. The lighter was lit up, and the paper was burnt to ashes.
“Stop burning! I’ll tell you the truth!”
The Qiao family’s phones rang one after another. Their subordinates were anxiously asking for help. Gu Corporation was suppressing the Qiao family’s businesses. Some went directly bankrupt, while others were forcefully bought over. If this continued, Qiao Corporation would disappear from Li City.
Old Madam Qiao’s eyes were bloodshot. She was going crazy. She stared at the lighter in Song Shijing’s hand. If she did not tell the truth, Gu Zheng would destroy the entirety of Qiao Corporation.
This could not continue!
Gu Zheng’s expression was indifferent, and his eyes were calm. However, the aura he exuded made one shudder and feel reverence.
At this moment, everyone present did not say anything. They were afraid that if they angered President Gu, he would use the same method to deal with them.
Seeing the Qiao family’s businesses getting destroyed one after the other, Old Madam Qiao almost went crazy. “I’ll say it now! It was Rou Rou. This was all Rou Rou’s idea!”
Qiao Rou’s heart skipped a beat.
Song Shiyu had a mocking look on his face. “Miss Qiao Rou, didn’t you say it was all for the sake of our young madam? You suggested this marriage because you wanted someone to take care of her. You made it sound as though our young madam would be letting you down if she refused! You pretend to be gentle and sensible, but in reality, you’re trying to kill our young madam!”
Gu Moling looked at Qiao Rou in disbelief.
Song Shiyu continued to attack her. “Second Miss Qiao is indeed the daughter of a mistress. She’s so pretentious! She sold our wife to Zhong Ming just to torture her to death!”
The entire venue was silent as everyone watched this scene in disbelief.
Qiao Rou took a few steps back and hurriedly retorted, “Sister, I didn’t do that! I know you still hate me, but Brother Moling and I are about to get married. What else do you want?!”
Immediately after, another document was burned to ashes.
Qiao Rou widened her eyes and stared at the ashes on the floor. “I… I didn’t do it. I didn’t do it. Don’t burn it, don’t burn it! I didn’t do it!”
Gu Zheng shot him a look, and Song Shijing continued to burn the documents.
Seeing that there were not many documents left, Old Madam Qiao felt her heart stop.
