What I didn't expect was that Zhao Tiezhu was safe and sound. Could it be that Shun's assassination failed?
Zhu Ji was just thinking to herself when she heard Chen Lingshan exclaim, "Ah! What's going on?"
Zhu Ji followed the sound and saw a man lying limply on the ground beside the wall. The blood on his chest was pouring out as if he wanted no money. The whole person looked like there was no breath of life. Who could this be, Shun?
"Little friend Tiezhu, what's going on?" Chen Daoling asked with a gloomy face.
"This man came to assassinate me, but I killed him." Zhao Tiezhu said, raising the dagger in his hand and saying, "This is a crime tool."
Chen Daoling's face became even more gloomy. He walked a few steps in front of the corpse, squatted down and looked at Shun carefully, and then shouted angrily, "Zhu Ji, what's going on!"
"Dad, I don't know what's going on!" Zhu Ji panicked all of a sudden.
"If I remember correctly, this person seems to be Shun from your Zhu family, right? Why would he come to assassinate little friend Tiezhu!" Chen Daoling stood up and looked directly at Zhu Ji, "I want to hear the truth."
"Dad, I really don't know!" Zhu Ji's face was filled with grievances, "I haven't seen him for a long time, how could I have thought that he would come to assassinate Tiezhu!!"
"Mr. Chen, this man just said before he died that your Zhu Ji sent him here!" Zhao Tiezhu pointed at Zhu Ji and said.
"Zhao Tiezhu, don't talk nonsense!" Zhu Ji shouted in horror, "I know you may be biased against me because of Lingshan and Chen Meng, but you can't say this kind of thing casually!"
"Mr. Chen, I just said this. This man is already dead, and I have no way to bring him back to life. Again, do you believe me or your daughter-in-law? It's up to you.
But let me declare first, I came to you and experienced two murders. The first time, for your sake, I forgot about it. This second time, I can't just forget about it, even if I want to
Forget it, but my Zhao family will not let it go easily! I have always been the kind of person who will kill anyone who wants to kill me. If you don’t deal with this Zhu Ji, then I will let the Zhao family
Come, let’s handle it according to the Zhao family’s way.” Zhao Tiezhu said seriously.
"This... little friend Tiezhu, let's move to the study and talk slowly, okay?" Chen Daoling said after hesitating for a long time. After all, all these are just Zhao Tiezhu's words, and it is absolutely impossible for Chen Daoling to go there just because of this little thing.
How about dealing with the mistress of the Chen family?
"That's up to you." Zhao Tiezhu shrugged nonchalantly, "I'm leaving tomorrow anyway. If you can't give me a good explanation tomorrow, then I'll have to do things in my own way."
"Okay!" Chen Daoling nodded, ordered his men to move Shun's body away and destroy it, and then took Zhao Tiezhu to the study. Chen Lingshan and Chen Meng, at Zhao Tiezhu's signal, also went to the study.
Zhu Ji was naturally also in the study, as was Chen Xinshou.
"Little friend Tiezhu, can you tell me exactly what happened?" Chen Daoling asked in the study.
"The thing is very simple. The man wanted to kill me, but he was killed by me. I asked him beforehand that it was Zhu Ji who ordered him. It's that simple." Zhao Tiezhu said.
"Zhu Ji, this person is from your Zhu family. Do you have anything to explain?" Chen Daoling said with a frown.
"Dad, it's impossible to say that he was instigated by me just because he is from the Zhu family, right? I don't know about this at all!" Zhu Ji looked aggrieved.
"Little friend Tiezhu, look at this matter. Everyone has their own opinions. For example, if you stay here for a few more days, I will definitely have someone investigate this matter and get to the bottom of it!" Chen Daoling promised.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, I still have something to do." Zhao Tiezhu shrugged and said, "I have to go back to fj tomorrow. If you don't give me a good result before I go back tomorrow, I will report this matter to
My second grandfather said it."
"This..." Chen Daoling didn't know what to do for a moment. Take down Zhu Ji? She is also the mistress of the Chen family after all. If he takes down someone just based on someone else's words, it would be too much for him.
You are embarrassed! How about taking down Zhao Tiezhu? This is simply impossible, it will only make the Chen family doomed!
Just when Chen Daoling had a headache, a man walked in from outside.
"The eldest son of the Cui family is here!" the visitor whispered in Chen Daoling's ear.
Chen Daoling frowned, why is the Cui family's eldest son here at this late hour?
But since everyone was here, Chen Daoling couldn't let them go back, so he had to first accuse Zhao Tiezhu, and then left the study. Not long after, he brought the so-called eldest son of the Cui family into the study.
It was at this time that Zhao Tiezhu saw the eldest son of the Cui family for the first time. He was pretty good-looking, tall and thin, with fair skin. He was the type that girls like, and his smile was full of evil, like that of ordinary girls.
, it’s hard to resist this kind of smile.
"Little friend Tiezhu, let me introduce to you. This is the eldest son of the Cui family, Cui Xiao." Chen Daoling said.
Cui Xiao... Zhao Tiezhu glanced at Cui Xiao with a strange expression after hearing this name. Seeing that Cui Xiao had already smiled and stretched out his hand, Zhao Tiezhu also stretched out his hand to shake his hand.
"I think everyone is wondering why I came here all night, right?" Cui Xiao looked at the people around him. When his eyes passed Chen Lingshan, he paused slightly and then smiled.
Chen Lingshan also smiled a little awkwardly.
"I'm here today because I want to tell you something." Cui Xiao said with a smile, "Actually, I'm here to ask for forgiveness!"
"Bearing on a thorn bush to plead guilty?" Everyone was confused for a while.
"Well, actually, your Zhu Ji and I are considered partners, don't you think so, Zhu Ji?" Cui Xiao asked with a smile.
Zhu Ji said with an ugly face, "What do you mean?"
"It's not interesting!" Cui Xiao said, "Actually, all of this is Zhu Ji's fault!"
"Cui Xiao, how dare you!" Zhu Ji glared at Cui Xiao and shouted.
"What am I afraid of?" Cui Xiao said, "In fact, when the Zhu family sold the 20% equity to my Cui family, your Chen family had already fallen into the Zhu family's trap.
"
Cui Xiao told the whole story about how the two families planned to trap the Chen family, and finally said, "This afternoon, I heard that Zhu Ji wanted to assassinate Tie Zhu, so I rushed over in a hurry. Fortunately, nothing happened.
It’s a big deal, otherwise my conscience would be in trouble!”
"Zhu Ji, is everything he said true?" Chen Xinshou looked at Zhu Ji in disbelief.
"How is that possible! Xin Shou, he is with Zhao Tiezhu, you can't trust him!" Zhu Ji shouted.
"I forgot to mention it. I also brought a lot of documents. These are secret agreements between the Zhu family and my Cui family. Mr. Chen, you can take a look." Cui Xiao said, taking a folder from the subordinate on the side.
, handed it to Chen Daoling.
And Zhu Ji's eyes finally showed a look of despair.
