Qi Rongchen's peach blossom eyes were full of playfulness and meaning as he said, "Families don't speak ill of each other."
Xingkong raised her eyebrows without a sound, she liked his words.
"Let's get down to business!"
However, Qi Heng's face turned sour as he coldly snorted, "Shen Xingkong, what about the favor you promised me?"
Xingkong looked at him and asked, "Qi Heng, is this how you ask for a favor?"
"I just helped you!" He became angry and embarrassed.
"But you should know that there are many people who can help me, but there are only a few who can help you."
"You!" Qi Heng's face turned even worse.
An hour ago, he received a call from Shen Xingkong, who asked him to cooperate with her and promised to convince Huo Siye and Qi's family to work together.
Although he was skeptical, he was very tempted.
Qi's family had made their fortune through affordable chain hotels, but despite a few years of profits in the early years, they had been losing money year after year and were on the brink of bankruptcy. If they could cooperate with Huo Siye's luxury hotels now, it would undoubtedly revive Qi's family.
But...how did Shen Xingkong know that Qi's family was on the verge of bankruptcy?
Qi Heng scrutinized Shen Xingkong.
It seemed that she had changed since the day of the school banquet.
"Qi Heng, you have always wanted to climb up to the Shen family, that's why you knew it was a trap but still went to Huo Siye's room with Uncle Hai. You and Shen Xinai...you just want to use the Shen family behind her to save the bankrupt Qi's family. But now, I have given you a better opportunity, shouldn't you be grateful to me?"
Qi Heng clenched his fists and remained silent.
Shen Xingkong was right. No matter how you looked at it, Huo Siye was a better choice than the Shen family.
Qi Rongchen chuckled softly. He wondered if "gratitude and loyalty" were not meant to be used in this way.
Seeing Qi Heng unable to speak, Xingkong chuckled lightly.
In the previous life, the Qi family had declared bankruptcy shortly after Shen Xinai and Huo Siye's engagement. Qi Heng had begged for help from Shen Xinai to save the family.
At that time, Shen Xinai was immersed in the joy of becoming Mrs. Huo and casually gave the Qi family a small cooperation. Unfortunately, it not only failed to save the Qi family, but also caused it to collapse completely.
In the end, Qi Heng disappeared, and no one knew what happened to him.
With her rebirth, a butterfly effect was triggered, and many things were different in this life.
She was not here to save Qi Heng, but to repay Huo Siye.
Because in the previous life, when his mother fled from Yundu, it was Qi Heng's mother who risked being retaliated against by the Huo family and secretly extended a helping hand!
This time, she would repay the favor.
"There was no choice for you since you drank that glass of wine for Shen Xinai."
"But why would Huo Siye listen to you?"
"Just because I am his adopted daughter-in-law~"
Qi Heng, "...", he suddenly felt that Shen Xingkong was not normal.
Seeing Qi Heng's incredulous expression, Xingkong turned her head to look at Qi Rongchen, her eyes bright. "Mr. Qi, did I say something wrong?"
"Right." Qi Rongchen nodded, unusually serious, and repeated what she said to Qi Heng. "She's right. She's our family's adopted daughter-in-law."
Qi Heng still couldn't believe it.
Even if Huo Siye really had an adopted daughter-in-law, it should be Shen Xinai, the biological daughter of the Shen family, not an adopted daughter.
But since even Qi Rongchen said so, he had to believe it.
"Okay, when will you fulfill your promise?" Qi Heng asked.
"When no one can save her!" Xingkong sneered fiercely, her almond eyes filled with a sinister and terrifying chill. "I'm afraid you'll turn against me suddenly, after all, you don't seem like a person who keeps their promises."
Qi Heng shuddered, "..."
Shen Xinai couldn't have imagined what kind of terrifying person she had offended!
Perhaps she still didn't know what her fate would be.
If it was just a simple case of hiding drugs, the Shen family might be able to use some connections to get her out, but if it was drug trafficking... drug use...
"What about me?" At this point, another person spoke up.
Like Qi Heng, he had received a phone call an hour ago, telling him to secretly put a bag of cocaine in Shen Xinai's pocket.
He didn't know who the other party was, but he agreed without hesitation.
Xingkong looked over and saw that this person was the son of a chemical group's CEO, named Liang Jianian. He was in the same circle as Qi Heng.
But he was a little different from ordinary second-generation rich kids. Liang Jia Nian was diligent and studious, and had a girlfriend whom he had a good relationship with.
Unfortunately, he had offended Shen Xinai and became a victim of campus violence. Despite being the victim, he was wrongly accused and ended up being imprisoned in a juvenile detention center as the perpetrator.
Due to the relationship between the Shen family and Dong Siyu, Liang Jia Nian had no way to plead for his girlfriend and could only watch her being wrongly accused.
"Go pick up your girlfriend tomorrow morning at eight o'clock."
"Really?" Liang Jia Nian's eyes lit up.
Xingkong nodded, "Although I'm not a good person, I always keep my promises. I will not only fulfill my promise to you, but also give you an extra gift."
"I don't need any gifts. I just want Shen Xinai to pay for what she did! Who does she think she is, trampling on people like that just because she's the Shen family's darling?"
"The price that Shen Xinai will pay is the gift that I'm giving you."
Liang Jia Nian, "..."
"However, I must remind you that if I can help you rescue her, I can also send her back. So, do you know what to do next?"
Liang Jia Nian was not stupid. He understood that there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. If someone helped you, they would naturally expect something in return.
But...how could punishing Shen Xinai for what she deserved be considered as his payment? This was clearly what he had been dreaming of!
"I understand. Don't worry, I will cooperate."
"Very good. I wish us a pleasant cooperation." Xingkong put away all her fierceness and smiled sweetly at Liang Jia Nian.
Qi Heng felt a little dazzled.
If Shen Xingkong was a devil just now, then she, at this moment, is a sweet and innocent angel.
If Xingkong knew that she was being described as such, she would definitely give him a wry smile.
She didn't want to be an angel. She wanted to be a little devil who would never be bullied by anyone.
She wanted to expose the hypocrisy of everyone and show the world how dirty and disgusting the angels in their hearts could be!
"They all got something out of it, what about me?" Qi Rongchen asked with a smile.
Xingkong blinked, "We're all family, why make such a big deal out of it?"
Qi Rongchen, "..."
This sounded familiar.
"Does Ah Ye know that you played another trick tonight?"
"My brother doesn't like men."
Qi Rongchen, "...Uh?"
"So, don't keep calling him 'Ah ye'. Qi Heng doesn't care, but my brother does."
Qi Rongchen, "..."
Was she saying that he had no shame in different words?
What a hypocrite! Did she forget who had just helped her?
