Stolen Life of the Poor Girl, Top Luxury Family's Group Favor

Chapter 200: Self-Destruct



Chapter 200

"Li Jiang and Wei Lin have one thing in common. They believe their talents deserve greater rewards. Li Jiang absconded with money and thrived elsewhere, while Wei Lin used the flaws of Wei Wenjuan and Wei Wenqing to trap them... Both of these men derived pleasure from manipulating others. They looked down on people and sought to control them to achieve their goals."

"When they reach a dead end with no possibility of turning back... their personalities won't allow them to admit defeat. That's why Li Jiang, even facing death, refused to tell you who your biological father is. Because this was the last weapon he held. Even in death, this blade could still wound you."

"So he first had to tell you about the existence of your biological father, to arouse your longing. Otherwise, how could he hurt you?"

"Then, when Wei Lin had no more arguments left, what was his final weapon?"

"Of course, it was to describe in great detail to your two uncles, who you care so much about, exactly how your mother was tricked and taken to Hua Country, and how they were blinded in the process... ultimately leading to your mother's tragic end."

"Now that your uncles have recovered mentally and you're doing well, nothing except your mother's story could serve as the sharpest blade."

"It's as simple as that."

At the time, Secretary Wang explained this to Xiao Ya calmly over the phone.

"Ah, remember, you must drive him into a corner. As long as he has even a sliver of hope, he won't think about stabbing you in the heart before he dies."

"Do you know what a dead end means? It's not putting a knife to his throat, nor is it laying out all the things he's done... People in this circle have plenty of dark history, presenting these things won't make him fear."

"You need to make him realize that he's no longer important, that he's dispensable, that his allies are no longer standing with him, that his subordinates are beginning to waver..."

"Because his network of relationships is what he relies on to survive. Without this network, he'll feel there's no hope left."

"But how to make him realize this... that's an extra charge." Secretary Wang finished his remaining words.

Xiao Ya ultimately didn't pay this extra price.

Those who understand the Ghost family best are their opponents.

She learned about the composition of the Ghost family's core management group from Ke Muning... and learned about the board of directors.

Later, she had several phone calls with Xing Siyun, who then relayed the information to Wei Wenjuan.

Finally, it led to today's scene.

And to make the board of directors take such a stance... was actually very, very simple.

Xiao Ya just had Wei Wenjuan meet with the board members in advance, bringing all the evidence they had uncovered, whether true or false.

"Father's health isn't good, and we didn't expect Wei Lin to do so many things behind our backs, damaging the interests of the family and the entire group. Your names are also in these records..."

Just as the board members' faces were tightening one by one, Wei Wenjuan slammed a gun on the table.

Instantly, everyone's eyes were drawn to the gun, fearing he might go crazy again.

"I don't want to suspect so many people. I just want my niece to come back alive, to come back safe and sound, and to deal with those who harmed her!"

"Although I'm the son of the Ghost family, you are all old-timers of the family too. I don't want people to think I'm using my niece's situation to eliminate opposition and deliberately suppress you, the company's meritorious servants."

First a slap, then a sweet date.

Amidst the complex emotions of the board members, Wei Wenjuan pushed those materials in front of them.

He said coldly, "I'm giving you the right to interrogate. I trust you won't hide anything. This way, you can also be assured that I haven't mixed in any personal agenda."

The board members' emotions were like a roller coaster, and at this point, how could they not agree?

They were relieved. Even if Wei Lin was dealt with, even if Wei Wenjuan went crazy, it wouldn't involve them.

They also privately wanted to save Wei Lin, so it was best if they could take over this interrogation right, making it easier to go easy on him.

Originally, they had good intentions.

But from the moment Wei Lin was brought into the hall and heard the interrogation questions coming from their mouths...

The trust between them collapsed.

Wei Lin couldn't understand why they had sided with Wei Wenjuan... that's because they weren't on the same side at all!

At this moment in the hall.

Wei Lin met the eyes of the board members.

Their eyes revealed urgency, persuasion...

Wei Lin felt extreme psychological pressure.

He couldn't help but think of the "cruise ship case" again. The nature of the cruise ship case was very bad, but relying on the network of legitimate contacts he had accumulated through his smooth talking... he could actually completely clean up this mess.

But why did the board members seem to not expect him to resolve it?

They were more fixated on convicting him right now?

It couldn't be that... they had decided to simply use this opportunity to make him take the fall, could it?

The more Wei Lin thought, the more complex it became.

After a while.

"Is there any need to make this call?" Wei Lin sneered, "You all already believe the second young master's accusations against me, don't you?"

Could he hope for the Ghost family's enemies to clear his name?

Dreaming would be faster!

"Second young master, only you and I know the truth... Our little miss, on the island, became allies with her enemy, Mr. Ke Muning. It was Ke Muning who took her away. She even called you, didn't she? Today's scene was also remotely orchestrated by her. Although I really don't want to believe it, a child can indeed do these things..."

Wei Lin felt the pain of not being understood. He looked at the other board members: "I know you won't believe it either... but that's the fact."

Wei Wenjuan's expression didn't change at all: "If you suspect I'm setting up a trap, you can check my call records."

The expressions of the board members were already very ugly, and they hurriedly said, "We wouldn't dare."

"What are you saying? Why would the second young master set up a trap? We're all family here. In the end, it's still Mr. Wei who did wrong."

Wei Wenjuan looked at them: "So have you finished your interrogation now?"

"Ah, it's done. Mr. Wei has no objections."

"Then it's my turn next, any problem?"

"What else does the second young master want to ask?"

"About my sister Wenyu's matter..." Wei Wenjuan clapped his hands, "Bring the person up."

Someone brought up a man who was a mass of blood and flesh.

There wasn't a single undamaged piece of flesh on the man's body, but surprisingly he didn't cry out in pain. Who knows how many painkillers he had been given to keep him alive until today.

Wei Wenjuan pointed at the man and asked, "Do you know him?"

"I don't," Wei Lin said coldly.

Wei Wenjuan bent down and asked the man, "Li Jiang, do you know him?"

Li Jiang slowly raised his head, forcing an ugly smile: "Finally seeing you again, Mr. Wei Lin. I never thought that you weren't actually Wenyu's real brother."

Li Jiang stared intently at Wei Lin, already eager to make Wei Lin suffer with him.

Wei Lin's fingertips trembled, struggling to recognize that this human form was actually the hotel waiter from years ago...

But so what?

He couldn't produce any evidence.

At this point, Wei Wenjuan spoke again: "I have a recording in my hand."

He glanced at Wei Lin, then looked at Li Jiang: "Xiao Ya gave it to me. You should know what it is, right?"

A recording, given by Xiao Ya.

Li Jiang mumbled tremblingly, "She found it? She actually really found it? Impossible!"

Wei Wenjuan continued, "Come on, tell Wei Lin what it is."

Li Jiang was both laughing and crying. He looked at Wei Lin and said, "Mr. Wei Lin, you originally handed Wenyu over to me, and you even transferred several sums of money to my account. Of course, you were very clever. You deleted the email account you used to communicate with me, and after that, I couldn't contact you anymore. I guess the bank account you used for the transfers probably wasn't in your name either."

Li Jiang rolled his eyes, looking like a living dead, which was a bit terrifying.

He glanced at the board members: "It was to avoid this day, being interrogated by these people, right?"

"But, didn't you look down on us country folks too much? I've been to school, I could work in Jiang City, I have brains, Mr. Rich Wei Lin... I recorded everything you said to me back then."

"Wenyu gave birth to a clever daughter, and she obtained the recording. Now, it's in this person's hands."

"Do you still remember what you told me back then?"

"Do you want me to help you recall?"

Li Jiang smiled distortedly.

"Then you can explain to these people properly why you wanted to harm Wenyu?"

The board members looked at each other upon hearing this.

"Is this true?" they asked sternly.

No matter what, they had to put on a show of concern now!

Wei Lin stared intently at Wei Wenjun's phone. Where was the recording? In the phone?

He wished he could strangle Li Jiang.

Wasn't this person supposed to be hiding like a dark rat while being pursued? It turns out he was with Wei Wenjun all along...

"Who was the assistant by Wei Lin's side at that time? Bring that person here," a board member spoke up. "A personal assistant couldn't possibly know nothing."

They had to be proactive, not daring to be associated with such a plot against the family.

At least it couldn't get out!

Wei Wenjun said, "The person has already been brought here."

Wei Lin lowered his head and suddenly laughed, "Fine, I never thought it would come to this..."

He glared at the board members: "Are you any cleaner than me? Now you're all rushing to be Wei Wenjun's dogs? How did you discuss things behind closed doors in the past? Saying how would the old man's business be managed? That there wasn't a useful person in the family. When you said those things, weren't your eyes red with greed?"

"Didn't you think about getting them out of the picture?"

Wei Lin exhaled: "What happened back then... it wasn't entirely my fault. It was the old man's own heavy-handed style that forced Miss Wenyu to return to the country to carry her pregnancy. During that time, the old man had already noticed something unusual about her, which is why he had the young master constantly by her side."

"The drugging of the young master was Miss Wenyu's own decision. She didn't want the young master to be implicated and punished by the old man for letting her escape. Who knew... this incident would become the young master's lifelong nightmare. Haha! It almost drove him insane, he really believed he had lost Miss Wenyu himself..."

At this point, Wei Lin shifted his gaze: "You see, the old man's son is this naive, this pure. Did you really never think that they weren't fit to inherit the family business?"
