Chapter 24: Chapter 24: It’s Not Your Turn to Speak
Translator: 549690339
Half an hour later, in a cafe at the city center, Xiao Qian sat alone by the window, staring out at the scenery.
Ni Jianren rushed in nervously, fixed his gaze on Xiao Qian, and darted toward her like a mad dog, ready to start a fight. Xiao Qian stayed calm.
Only when he was close enough, did she raise the photo in her hand. Ni Jianren’s eyes widened in shock as he looked at the content.
If this was leaked, he and Li Zhen would be fired from their job.
“If you dare to lay a finger on me, 1 guarantee that this photo of yours will appear on your company’s bulletin board tomorrow. I won’t hesitate to enlarge it.”
“What do you want?” Ni Jianren roared.
Xiao Qian gestured him to sit, and Ni Jianren took the seat opposite her, his hands trembling. He suddenly realized that the woman he had always looked down on was now an insurmountable mountain across from him.
“If you want to retrieve the negatives, there are two conditions. First, call off our engagement, with the reason being you contracting a contagious disease and not wanting to hold me back.” Xiao Qian stirred her drink with a straw.
Ni Jianren roared in anger.
“It’s you who has a contagious disease!”
Xiao Qian responded, “Do you want me to tell my parents that you’re a homosexual?”
Ni Jianren could only sit back down, grinding his teeth.
“Fine, I’ll tell your father later. We’re calling off the wedding.”
It would be terrifying to marry such a woman. It’s just as well that the engagement is broken off. It’s all verbal promises anyway. Just saying that he has a contagious disease is somewhat annoying.
“Second, give me 50,000 yuan. Cash for negatives.”
“Fifty thousand?! Are you crazy?” Ni Jianren wanted to strangle this woman.
The current property prices in Qiang City were over 2000 yuan per square meter. She was directly asking for half a house!
“You can choose not to give it to me. You have the legal rights to protect your interests. Go and report it, sue me, tell people 1 am blackmailing you with these photos, arrest me! If you don’t care about your job or your reputation, then do as you please!”
As Xiao Qian said these words, her eyes were filled with deep, unresolved sorrow.
Such familiar words. How did Ni Jianren call her back then?
He threatened her in the same tone, saying that if she didn’t pay the ransom, he would tear up the tickets. What goes around, comes around. Now, she was using almost the same method to retaliate against Ni Jianren and his anger and malice were clearly reflected in her eyes.
“Chen Xiaoqian! Don’t push it too far!” Ni Jianren remembered picking out a seemingly honest woman, thinking she could be his shield.
But when this woman turned vicious, her methods were far too ruthless!
“Am I going too far? Or are you? Would I ever treat you like this if you hadn’t provoked me?”
A man, for the sake of appeasing his family, would marry a woman he couldn’t possibly have any reaction toward. How shameless could he be?
Marriage is such an important matter for women. Even if she had not had sex with Ni Jianren, the moment her red marriage certificate turned into a green divorce certificate, she would be labelled as a divorcee.
At this time, Chinese society was not very tolerant of divorced women. She would be whispered about wherever she goes, even if the divorce was not her fault.
At this point, Ni Jianren wished he could shred Xiao Qian to pieces. “1 don’t have that much money.”
“Your parents do, you’re very good at living off them, aren’t you? There were 50,000 yuan for the wedding gifts. Buying your ‘true love’ pictures, and suddenly you’re broke?”
“When do you want it…?” Ni Jianren gritted his teeth.
“Now. Immediately.”
“I have to go get it!”
“If you dare do anything to me, your negatives will go public. Cash for negatives, got it?” Xiao Qian said casually, sipping her tea.
Ni Jianren muttered a curse under his breath, and stormed out.
In fact, Ni Jianren had money on him, all from the wedding money given by his family. But he was just unwilling.
Being toyed with by a woman, and feeling utterly powerless. This made him extremely angry.
After he left, Ni Jianren couldn’t accept it and called Li Zhen.
At this moment, Li Zhen had almost been beaten to a pulp by Yu Minglang.
“Cou… cousin, you’ve been hitting me for half an hour. That’s enough…”
Denise, if not for knowing this cousin is indifferent to women and had just retired from the Army, Li Zhen would have suspected that Yu Minglang had something to do with that woman.
He specifically targeted the painful parts when hitting people. Clearly, he was venting his anger for that woman. Li Zhen reckoned he would have to lie in bed for half a month before he could get up. It hurt so much!
When his phone rang, Yu Minglang walked over, picked it up and looked at the number.
Sweetie…
The thought of that woman curling her little finger to deceive him, wanting to marry “his” Zhou Zhiruo, made him feel nauseous.
He answered using the speakerphone, and Ni Jianren’s sobbing voice came through.
“Dear, that decoy is being too overbearing ~”
What happened to Xiao Qian? Yu Minglang was taken aback, his voice raised a few notches.
“What happened to her?”
Li Zhen let out a little shriek, a chill ran down his spine as he watched Yu Minglang speak in his voice!
Yu Minglang shot him a warning look, signaling him to shut up.
Back in the day, he had taken a selective course on voice modulation. Other than Yu Minglang, no one else could master it like this.
“She’s using our pictures and demanding 50,000 yuan from me. I have to get the money now, sweetheart. What should we do? If I don’t give it to her, she’ll release the photos!”
Yu Minglang frowned, this girl, she really lied to him.
She said that she would delete the photos after breaking off the engagement, but now she was on the brink of committing a crime?
“Dear, are you listening?”
“The place of transaction.” Yu Minglang asked.
After jotting down the address and hanging up, Li Zhen leaned in.
“Cousin, you saw it too, this woman is too much, hurry and use your connections, and get her arrested! This is extortion, this is blackmail, this is Ah!”
Li Zhen was interrupted by a punch before he could finish his sentence.
Yu Minglang retracted his fist and said coldly, “From now on, don’t let me hear you say anything negative about her. It’s not your place to judge.”
“She is a scammer– All!” Li Zhen covered his other eye.
“Even if she did it wrong, it was because you jerks pushed her to do it!”
That’s it, Yu Minglang has lost it.
Yu Minglang left the hotel, headed to his Jeep Cherokee, and sped toward the address Ni Jianren had given him.
xiao Qian’s plan was actually perfect.
As long as she got the money, she would immediately leave this place of trouble, take her university admission notice, and go directly to university. Neither the good-for-nothing father nor the scumbag could find her. She just wanted to live her life as she wanted, and she didn’t care how these scumbags ended up.
But she never expected that her perfect plan would go awry because of someone’s involvement.
When Xiao Qian saw Yu Minglang and Ni Jianren appear one after another in the cafe, she felt like she had been doused in cold water.
What was Yu Daidi (The Dumb) doing here?
Seeing him, Xiao Qian stood up and tried to leave, but it was too late!
