Chapter 419: Smart Woman
Outside, the two officers heard the shot and immediately rushed in, both pulling out their guns and pointing them at Tianjing Tuozai’s head. “Freeze!”
One of the officers moved over and checked out Shanling Gangben’s situation. This homie was dead!
Tianjing Tuozai just looked at all of this, completely dumbfounded. Then, he frantically looked around, trying to find what had just grabbed his hand. He really felt that someone suddenly forced his hand to his gun and made him take the shot at Shanling Gangben!
He really started to believe that there might be ghosts, and before he could come back to his senses, the two officers took him away. Xu Cheng brought the phone that recorded the conversation as well as Shanling Gangben’s phone and left the jail cell.
On the next day, another incident that was enough to detonate nation-wide chaos went viral again.
It was a video accompanied by a voice recording. In the jail, Tianjing Tuozai shot Shanling Gangben in the head, and their conversation that involved politically sensitive topics were also exposed.
Those on Shanling Financial Group’s side were immediately infuriated, and with the identity of the victim, they successfully incited the people and public opinion to attack the current government party, and riots and protests began to storm the streets across the country. On the internet, there was a tsunami of ugly comments scolding how the current prime minister was so dirty that he would work together with the Tianjing Financial Group to get re-elected. This time, the Tianjing Financial Group got dragged into this for no reason again!
Before Tianjing Tuozai could clear his name of killing Shanling Jiubao, he was now caught on video killing Shanling Gangben! This time, it was basically impossible for the Tianjing Financial Group to wash themselves clean from guilt. Even if the government would help them, even if the public was forgetful, the people behind Shanling Gangben wouldn’t let this chance to cripple their old nemesis slide!
All in all, the entire Wei Nation, from politics to economy, suffered a huge quake.
There were politicians that suddenly went missing or got killed, and there were riots going on at every corner. All in all, it was really chaotic.
As for the economy, due to the scandal breaking out, the Tianjing Financial Group’s brands were being boycotted by the public as everyone called them the “Murderer Corporation”. The group’s stock prices all jumped off a cliff.
In the morning at work, Songdao Laizi was reading the news, and she was dumbfounded. Her colleague gently bumped her by the shoulder and said, “Laizi, your coffee is getting cold.”
Laizi just came back to her senses, and she faintly said, “I can’t drink, I feel like I’ve met God!”
“What’s gotten to you lately? You always look distracted during the day, did you get a crush on a guy or something?”
“It does seem like it…” Songdao Laizi said in a daze.
“Haha, you aren’t even shy when admitting it.”
“I don’t know why, it was like a dream. And then, when I woke up from the dream, the entire Wei Nation was in chaos!” She looked out of the window, and her head was filled with that man’s image. She wondered where he was right now.
“None of the news were reporting about that man, he really felt like someone that descended from the sky and summoned a storm with a wave of his hand! I feel like this person’s behind all of this for sure!” Songdao Laizi faintly muttered to herself.
Just then, a lawyer came in with the company manager.
“She is Songdao Laizi.”
The lawyer nodded. Then, he came to Songdao Laizi and gave her a business card. Then, he handed over a folder and said, “Is this your name, ID photo, and home address on this folder?”
The lawyer didn’t want to get the wrong person so he first asked Songdao Laizi to verify her identity.
Songdai Laizi didn’t know if this lawyer was working with the police and the incident or not, so she nodded while in a daze.
After confirming it was her, the lawyer took out another file and said, “This is the share transfer agreement of Shanling Gangben before his demise. You just need to sign here, that’s all.”
Songdao Laizi was dumbfounded.
“What did you say?”
“I’m one of the finance lawyers for Mr. Shanling Gangben. We received a commission from Mr. Gangben before his death to transfer his personal assets of 100 million-dollars in shares and fixed assets to under your name. Basically, you just need to sign this, and you can get a hundred million dollars.”
Laizi was shocked, and her colleagues also exclaimed, “Holy crap, Laizi, why didn’t you tell us that you have such a rich relative?”
“You… Did you guys make a mistake?” Songdao Laizi asked, completely confused.
“No, we didn’t make a mistake.” The lawyer smiled. “Yesterday, we received a call from Mr. Gangben. He foresaw that he wouldn’t be able to make it out, so he made some last few arrangements on his will. As a professional law firm, we wouldn’t make a mistake.”
Yesterday, Shanling Gangben indeed called the lawyers and made some last arrangements, and of course, it didn’t involve Songdao Laizi at all. It was just that Xu Cheng used that phone and with a voice changer, he impersonated Gangben and called. The call between Gangben and his lawyers was originally interrupted when Xu Cheng appeared in the cell, so when Xu Cheng called over again, the lawyer didn’t think too much of it and thought it was just his client continuing to discuss his will from where he left off at.
Songdao Laizi still didn’t dare to accept these shares, and it was mainly because she didn’t know what the fack was going on.
At that moment, the lawyer said, “Mr. Gangben foresaw that you, Miss Laizi, might not believe it, so he told me to tell you that this is to thank you for being a tour guide. The 200 thousand earlier was just a tip, and he said that you are a smart woman.”
Thump!
Songdao Laizi’s body shook, and her pupils instantly enlarged!
Tour guide, 200 thousand!
It was him!
You are a smart woman!
Smart woman!
This money was more like a fee to keep her mouth shut!
Songdao Laizi was getting goosebumps all over her body. “You said, this is what Mr. Shanling Gangben told you over the phone?”
The lawyer nodded. “Yes.”
Songdao Laizi was shocked. How could a dead person talk, and also give such a huge sum of money to a totally unrelated person?!
That man, is a mystery!
Xu Cheng sneezed as he waited on a chair at the airport. With newspaper in hand, he sipped on coffee as he mumbled to himself, “Old Man, looks like I’m really becoming more like a Joker.”
It was time, and he walked up to the security checkpoint. Xu Cheng handed over his British passport.
“Did you have a good time?” The security officer greeted him with a warm smile, thinking that he was here for travel.
Xu Cheng put on a big smile and said, “It was really fun, I really enjoyed it!”
“Then we welcome you to come back next time!” The officer gave him back his passport.
