Chapter 2208: Until Her Death
As such, this man before her was from the Zhu family. In the face of such a huge amount of inheritance, he felt psychologically imbalanced. Thus, he came to find her for help.
The other party didn’t know her or wasn’t familiar with her. She hadn’t opened her mouth to ask for benefits but the other party had already promised her five million yuan easily. Based on the other party’s attitude, Qiao Zijin guessed that the Zhu family didn’t leave behind only five million yuan. Even fifty million yuan would be a guess far off from it.
Wang Yang’s face darkened. He hated Qiao Zijin’s performance of trying to act smart. “I know a little of what kind of person you are. You might not know this, but I’m from Ping Cheng as well. Qiao Zijin, I think you should reflect on something. Chen Jun’s not bad, right? However, you don’t know that if not for me, based on your conditions, do you think you would have a chance to marry Chen Jun and be the Chen family’s daughter-in-law?”
It could be said that he had given Qiao Zijin her husband, Chen Jun. He was Qiao Zijin’s and Chen Jun’s matchmaker. She had gotten married to Chen Jun for more than ten years and had enjoyed more than ten years of blessing. Not only was he Qiao Zijin’s matchmaker, but he was also her benefactor. He didn’t need Qiao Zijin to repay him. He just needed her to help him do this one thing. Furthermore, he even promised her five million yuan. If Qiao Zijin dared to be greedy and had other ideas in her mind or even wanted to sabotage his plans, don’t blame him for being rude then.
“What do you mean? What has it got to do with you that I married Chen Jun?” Until now, Qiao Zijin didn’t know about Wang Yang’s identity. When she heard him mention her past marriage with Chen Jun, she only felt inexplicable. “Please get this clear. You’re creating trouble for me now, not the other way. Should your attitude of asking for help be like this? Don’t bring in those messy things from the past and try to act friendly with me. Am I that foolish? Will I believe whatever you say? I’m not even clear about the matters between me and my ex-husband. How would you be clearer about them than me?”
She knew clearly how she got married to Chen Jun. She fought hard for herself and was willing to let everything go. Aside from her, no one helped her. She relied on herself, alright?
Wang Yang rubbed his temples. He felt that talking reason to Qiao Zijin was something very stupid. “I’m not going to mention you and Chen Jun. Just one question. Do you want five million yuan or not?” As to how much money the Zhu family left behind, this had nothing to do with Qiao Zijin at all.
“After you do what I asked you to do, five million yuan is yours. If you don’t want this sum of money, you can leave after drinking the cup of coffee I’m treating you.” Qiao Zijin wasn’t the only living person in the Qiao family. Qiao Zijin loved money. He heard that their mother loved money as well. Otherwise, he could try their father?
Aside from Qiao Zijin, there would surely be another breakthrough from one of the members of the Qiao family.
After knowing that Wang Yang would definitely not answer her how much money the Zhu family left behind, Qiao Zijin smiled. “You asked me for help, but you haven’t told me who you are yet. If you don’t tell me who you are, how am I going to convey your message to Nan Nan? Would Nan Nan understand it clearly?”
Who was this unlucky person from the Zhu family before her now? Once she thought of how Zhu Chengqi left everything in the Zhu family to Qiao Nan and not this man before her, Qiao Zijin felt that he was more unlucky than herself. At least, when her father was biased, it was toward Qiao Nan, her biological sister. They were family. However, Zhu Chengqi was biased toward an authentic outsider.
“You don’t have to know who I am. You only have to convey my words to Qiao Nan. Qiao Nan will know who I am and will know how to contact me.” Qiao Nan only had the matter of the Zhu family’s inheritance now. There wasn’t anything else.
Qiao Zijin drank the bitter coffee and smiled. “Qiao Nan’s my sister. You don’t understand her like I do. This situation is to her advantage now. You’re the one who wants to discuss things with her now. Based on your attitude, if Qiao Nan would bother herself with you, I’ll write my name upside down. Her temper isn’t as good as she looks. If you really want to discuss things with her, you’d better adjust your attitude. Even I can’t tolerate it. Think about it. She’s the chief’s wife now. Can she tolerate it?”
He was obviously the one who had a favor to ask but was still putting on airs. How funny.
The Zhu family’s inheritance was a large sum of money. If she was anxious about the five million yuan, the other party was more anxious than her. It could be said that she had picked up this five million yuan for nothing. The other party was different. Everything in the Zhu family should have belonged to him in the first place. He was pitiful to have been cut out by Qiao Nan halfway.
Until now, Qiao Zijin didn’t understand. Was Qiao Nan that pleasing to the eye? She had reached the stage where Zhu Chengqi only cared about her, an outsider, rather than family.
Wang Yang knew that it wasn’t easy to talk to Qiao Nan. If she was easy to talk to, how would Zhu Chengqi leave behind such a will? He had known long ago that Qiao Nan was a formidable woman. It was fine if it was Qiao Nan. However, even Qiao Zijin, the idiotic woman who had little knowledge, dared to put on airs and play tricks with him now at this time. One could imagine how angry Wang Yang was feeling in his heart now.
For this reason, Wang Yang hated Zhu Chengqi the most and Qiao Nan the second. He never cared about dealing with idiots like Qiao Zijin before. However, he didn’t even have the confidence to fall out with Qiao Zijin now. There was no choice. Indeed, Qiao Zijin wasn’t the only one left in the Qiao family. However, compared to Qiao Dongliang and Ding Jiayi, Qiao Zijin was the most suitable candidate.
If Ding Jiayi listened to Qiao Zijin’s words previously and rushed over to the capital, she would have been Wang Yang’s number one candidate.
“I’m Wang Yang. As long as you mention my name, Qiao Nan will know who I am. Tell Qiao Nan that I’m sincere to talk things out with her. There really isn’t a need for us to go to court.”
“What? You’re not surnamed Zhu? You’re not a member of the Zhu family as well?” If he wasn’t a member of the Zhu family, what business was it of this man named Wang Yang before her that the Zhu family’s inheritance would belong to Qiao Nan?
“Who said that I’m not a member of the Zhu family?!” Wang Yang jumped up. He hated hearing this the most. “Zhu Chengqi is my biological uncle. My mom is Zhu Chengqi’s biological sister. My mom is surnamed Zhu. I have half the Zhu family’s blood in my body!” As such, even if he wasn’t surnamed Zhu, he was part of the Zhu family and had the right to inherit everything from the Zhu family.
It was all because of his damned surname, Wang. He was obviously more obedient than Zhu Baoguo. He also scored better results than Zhu Baoguo. However, since he was young, everyone told him that it was a pity his surname was Wang and not Zhu. Otherwise, given that he was much more outstanding than Zhu Baoguo, he should be the one to inherit everything from the Zhu family.
Wang Yang had heard too much of such words since he was young until Zhu Baoguo died.
