34: Chapter 34 A dog is still a dog.

"Move out of my way, all of you!"

Manager Sun, dressed in a suit with a thick cigar clamped in his mouth, barged through the crowd.

Outside the principal's office, a crowd of teachers and students eager for drama had already gathered.

Many people in the crowd held up their phones.

Parked downstairs were several black business vans bearing the "Jiang" logo.

In Jiangcheng, they were the absolute symbol of power.

Recording the Jiang Family in action was enough for them to brag about for half a year.

"Which one of you has a death wish and dares to touch my brother?" Manager Sun kicked open the half-closed wooden door.

He pointed his finger, still holding the cigar, into the office. "I'm going to chop you up and feed you to the dogs today!"

A dozen security guards filed in, packing the spacious principal's office until it was impenetrable.

They bounced their riot batons in their hands, creating a dull clattering sound.

Manager Zhao on the floor was sweating from the pain. Seeing Manager Sun, he wanted to warn him about something, but the sound got stuck in his throat.

Manager Sun took a deep drag of his cigarette, intending to spout more threats, but his gaze inadvertently swept over the wine-red figure on the leather sofa.

The smoke he hadn't yet exhaled got stuck in his throat, causing him to cough uncontrollably.

Jiang Xiaowan was sitting with her legs crossed, watching his performance with interest.

Plop.

Manager Sun's cigar dropped onto the floor, sending up a shower of sparks.

His blood ran cold, his scalp tingled, and he didn't know how to speak.

As a regional manager on the periphery of the Jiang Family, he knew all too well the methods of this eldest daughter of the Jiang Family.

Without a moment's hesitation.

Thump!

Manager Sun knelt directly on the floor.

"E-Eldest Miss! Why are you here?!" His voice trembled and went out of tune.

With this kneeling, the students and teachers outside holding their phones to record were all stunned.

They had originally wanted to film short clips like "The Jiang Family Punishes Scum" or "Upholding Justice."

They had their pants halfway down, and this is what they were shown?

Jiang Xiaowan frowned slightly, raised her right hand, and waved it.

The dozen security guards left exactly the way they had come in, even deliberately pushing away the onlookers.

Bang!

The door was closed, blocking the view from outside.

"I heard you asked someone, where did the Jiang in Jiangcheng come from?"

Jiang Xiaowan leaned back on the sofa, her voice lazy.

"Tell me about it, too."

Manager Sun shuddered, cold sweat soaking his shirt:

"Eldest Miss... I didn't mean that... I didn't know this was your friend..."

"If my father knew you were acting so domineering outside, what do you think he would do?"

Jiang Xiaowan stood up and walked over to Manager Sun in her high heels.

She smiled at him.

At this moment, she was full of charm.

But in Manager Sun's eyes, it was like seeing the King of Hell.

"Eldest Miss, spare me! I won't ever dare to do it again!"

Manager Sun kowtowed until his head made a thumping sound.

Jiang Xiaowan ignored him.

She looked down at Manager Zhao and his wife on the floor, then at Manager Sun kneeling on the ground.

"From now on, terminate all business related to the Jiang Family for this fat pig on the floor."

"As for you."

Jiang Xiaowan's voice was very soft.

"Going around biting people while using the banner of my Jiang Family."

"Break one of your own hands, and get out of Jiangcheng."

Two understated sentences directly pronounced the death penalty for two families.

Manager Zhao on the floor rolled his eyes back.

Between the pain and the fear, he passed out completely.

His arrogant, wealthy wife was also clutching her broken leg, full of regret.

She had only beaten a student's parent; she had done such things many times before...

And the principal had said that this woman's family was just a medical representative...

"Ahhhh! Principal Li, it's all your fault!!!"

When the principal heard himself mentioned, he scrambled out from under his desk.

"Miss Jiang! It was my poor management! Please, I beg you to show mercy!"

Jiang Xiaowan ignored him and looked at Lin Yuan on the side; only by making this financial genius happy would it work.

"Tomorrow, when the crude oil futures position is closed, buy this school," Lin Yuan turned his head and said to Su Xiaonuan.

His tone was as if he were talking about buying a head of cabbage. "Write the name as Lin Motong."

The office fell into a dead silence.

Wang Ya suddenly raised her head, looking at Lin Yuan's back in disbelief.

Buy a noble international school?

How much would that cost?

And all of this was just because her daughter had been wronged here!

Lin Motong stood beside her mother.

Her eyes, which were always guarded, were now fixed on Lin Yuan's tall, straight back.

The fourteen-year-old girl's worldview was completely reshaped at this moment.

That kind of "protection" she had never felt from her biological father now enveloped her.

[Ding! Target Lin Motong, favorability +6%! Current favorability: 18%!]

[Ding! Target Wang Ya (Beauty 88), favorability +3%! Current favorability: 41%!]

Jiang Xiaowan looked at Lin Yuan.

This kind of extreme dominance and protectiveness had a fatal attraction for any woman.

And he seemed to have said just now, close the position tomorrow!

Good thing she came today; every word of this man had to be carefully considered!

[Ding! Target Jiang Xiaowan (Beauty 92), favorability +2%! Current favorability: 1%!]

"Let's go." Lin Yuan turned around and walked out the door with long strides.

Su Xiaonuan followed immediately.

Wang Ya held Lin Motong's hand, lowered her head, and followed quickly behind.

Jiang Xiaowan came back to her senses and glanced at Manager Sun, who was still kneeling on the floor.

"Why haven't you done it yet?"

Crack!

Manager Sun gritted his teeth, took the riot baton from his subordinate, and smashed it hard against his own left arm.

The sound of the bone breaking was crisp.

Jiang Xiaowan smiled with satisfaction, stepped in her high heels, and followed Lin Yuan's pace.

...

At the same time.

Jiangcheng, Xiangshan Villa.

The living room lights were not on.

In the cold air, a faint scent of blood still lingered.

The private detectives outside had already been taken to a private hospital, with 100,000 in hush money stuffed into each of their hands.

Shen Qingyue was wrapped in a thick cashmere blanket, curled up in the corner of the sofa.

Her hair was messy, and her eyes were bloodshot.

On the expensive carpet at her feet, there was still a dried stain.

She hadn't closed her eyes for a day and a night.

As soon as she closed her eyes, the four private detectives with broken legs and neckties tied around their necks appeared in her mind.

The sound of the lock turning came from the villa door.

Shen Qingyue trembled all over, grabbed the blanket on her body tightly, and looked at the entrance in terror.

The door was pushed open.

A woman in a deep purple cheongsam walked in.

The woman looked to be in her early forties, with a slender figure, and was thirty percent similar to Shen Qingyue.

But there was something between her brows that was completely absent in Shen Qingyue.

Killing intent.

She walked without making any sound, and even her breathing was extremely long and steady.

"Mom..." Shen Qingyue's tears burst forth.

Grandmaster Ling Suzhen's gaze fell on the trembling daughter on the sofa.

She walked to the sofa.

Slap!

Grandmaster Ling Suzhen raised her hand, and an extremely loud slap landed hard on Shen Qingyue's face.

This slap had great force, knocking Shen Qingyue directly off the sofa onto the floor.

The cashmere blanket slipped off, revealing her pajamas soaked in cold sweat.

"A dog that used to kneel and lick you has scared you like this?"

Shen Qingyue covered her swollen cheek, tears streaming down.

"Mom... Lin Yuan has gone crazy..."

Shen Qingyue cried as she climbed up and hugged Grandmaster Ling Suzhen's leg.

"Lu Feng also took the money and ran... I have nothing left..."

Grandmaster Ling Suzhen kicked Shen Qingyue away.

"What's the use of crying?" Grandmaster Ling Suzhen walked to the wine cabinet and poured herself a glass of red wine,

"As for the Lin Yuan you mentioned on the phone, how did he seem like a different person?"

Grandmaster Ling Suzhen took a sip of red wine. "It just so happens I have a task in Jiangcheng, otherwise I wouldn't bother with your mess."

"You arrange a meeting with him, and I will have a good talk with him."

"He blocked me..." Shen Qingyue replied, "As soon as he hears my voice, he hangs up..."

Shen Qingyue suddenly seemed to remember something again.

Trembling, she fished her phone out from the carpet, clicked on the flight screenshot sent anonymously, and handed it to Grandmaster Ling Suzhen.

"Mom, Lu Feng is returning to the country tonight. This screenshot must have been sent to me by Lin Yuan."

"Only he would anonymously send me this kind of thing; he just wants to see me regret it."

Shen Qingyue gritted her teeth, a trace of venom flashing in her eyes.

She didn't expect that her narcissism at this time would actually bring her close to the truth.

It was just that Lin Yuan didn't want to see her regret; what he wanted to see was them biting each other like dogs.

Grandmaster Ling Suzhen threw the phone back onto the sofa and downed the red wine in her glass.

"Since he wants to watch a show, we'll play along with him."

"Tonight, come with me to the airport to catch them." Grandmaster Ling Suzhen turned her head and looked at Shen Qingyue on the floor. "Bring that man surnamed Lu; I will go meet Lin Yuan personally."

Crack!

Grandmaster Ling Suzhen slightly tightened her five fingers, and the wine glass shattered in her palm.

Even more eerily, those sharp glass shards fell down, but her fair palm didn't even have a single red mark left.

"Since we are mother and daughter, I will help you put the dog leash back on."
