She had been living a good life as Mrs. Wen. Other than not having a child, she had been living a prosperous and luxurious life.
Until Wen Rendong discovered this b*stard.
Of course, she was unwilling to accept it. She had only been in her early forties. If Wen Rendong died, everything in the Wen family would be his legal wife’s – hers, Zhou Manbai’s!
She wanted to kill everything that harmed her interests. Wen Yanqing should not exist. In an instant, a crazy thought rose in her mind, which was to kill him and make him disappear forever.
Zhou Manbai had indeed taken action. When she realized that, even if she slandered and spread rumors, it still could not shake Wen Rendong’s plan, she directly hired someone to hurt him.
“Fang Xin took the bullet for you; she did that willingly. The driver has already paid for it with his life. A life for a life!” Zhou Manbai’s expression was ferocious. “You hate me, so why don’t you attack me! Why did you touch the Zhou family’s company? Why did you touch the Zhou family!”
“Paid for it? If you want to save the Zhou family, there’s a way.” Wen Yanqing stood up. “Turn around and go to the police station to surrender. Confess that you were the one who hired a hitman. Can you do it?”
Zhou Manbai gritted her teeth.
“You can’t do it. You’re just putting on an act. You don’t have any remorse at all. Not a single bit.” Wen Yanqing stared at her.
“I should have found someone else to kill you back then! Let you accompany your mum in the underworld!” Zhou Manbai cursed.
“You admit it?” Wen Yanqing said coldly. “You killed her.”
“You deserve to die, and so does your dad! None of you are good people! You set up the Zhou family’s company, didn’t you? Zhengwei and my brother’s matter was also your doing, right? I can’t compare to you when it comes to ruthlessness. You’re really Wen Rendong’s son. You’re just as disgusting!”
She knew that she could not defeat him.
In the first two years after Wen Yanqing returned to the Wen family, he was still a fledgling. Zhou Manbai had tried all sorts of ways to break his wings, sully his image, threaten and bribe him, and even make her niece trap him by stripping naked and laying on his bed. Wen Yanqing had avoided all of them.
His growth rate was astonishing, and Zhou Manbai knew that she would never have such a good opportunity again. Eventually, she could not win against him, so she did not dare to provoke him.
Wen Yanqing did not touch her when he was growing up, but he did not forget what she had done.
Her most capable father had long been unable to do anything. It was as if her Zhou family was shrouded in bad luck. If any of the younger generation made a mistake, they would definitely be involved in a lawsuit. The judicial process was fair, and the Zhou family could only watch helplessly.
He was openly using the law to cut off the Zhou family’s lifelines.
Only now did she know that he had patiently set up a big plan. In a few years, he had lured the Zhou family into a trap. When he attacked again, he uprooted them.
The Zhou family’s company was like mud, and it was difficult to rise once more.
After everyone forgot about Fang Xin’s death, his revenge came.
The attack was rapid and ruthless, giving no chance for them to take a breath.
He wanted her to experience the feeling of being reduced to nothing, to fall from the top and struggle in the mud!
Because there was no evidence to punish her for hiring a murderer, he let her suffer such an outcome.
“I, Zhou Manbai, will not admit defeat.” Zhou Manbai’s gaze turned vicious. “If you don’t dare to kill me, I won’t turn myself in. Even if I have nothing, I’m still alive. One day, I’ll make you suffer!”
“Yes, you’re still alive.”
Just you wait and see, how being alive can be worse than death.
He wouldn’t risk his life for someone like this. So what if Zhou Manbai shouted loudly? She couldn’t do anything to him. Because his hands were clean, clean in the eyes of the law.
Therefore, she could only clamor. She could not deal with him, could not get away, and could not drag him through the mud..
