Chapter 936: Waiting for Debut
g had been following Chen Maidong for a long time and knew what his master wanted next."Get me two girls, preferably those with more curves." After Chen Maidong finished speaking, he took out a small...Chapter 936: Waiting for the Reveal
As Wang Zheng's words fell, all the celebrities present felt a bit shocked. Although struggles within noble families were quite perilous, such vicious methods were rather uncommon.
Since this was an event hosted by the Qiao family, and given that everyone there wasn't lacking in intelligence, almost everybody had roughly figured out what Wang Zheng wanted to say regarding something that happened years ago. They also vaguely guessed who the female protagonist of the incident might be!
Doubtlessly, compared to today's Qiao Shanxing, Qiao Jing from over a decade ago was incomparably more dazzling; she was an unattainable legend. However, her inexplicable disappearance for so many years left countless people lamenting.
Regarding the truth of what happened, many people were speculating, and their guesses were infinitely close to the actual events, yet no one could verify them because these things had long been buried in the dusts of history, impossible to prove. Qiao Jing's mysterious disappearance had become a historical unsolved case.
But now, it seemed this overly young man on the continent was about to reveal the secret!
At this moment, many hearts began beating rapidly; that distant memory might finally be blown away by the wind to expose its truth!
Hence, those who knew more about what happened back then were getting increasingly excited. A few people even dropped their wine glasses!
Qiao Shanxing's heart sank to the bottom. So—more significant matters were yet to come… This Wang Zheng had clearly prepared well; from his initial strong actions towards the Qiao family to now telling these so-called historical stories, every step was digging a pit for them. If this incident continued as it was, Qiao Shanxing could almost confirm that Wang Zheng would dig a huge grave and bury everyone alive!
This man's scheming mind and terrifying intellect far exceeded his imagination! Knowing the truth was about to be revealed, Qiao Shanxing's heart raced wildly. Such unease hadn't appeared in him for years! But he was Qiao Shanxing; faced with such a crisis now as the head of the family, he had no choice but to forcefully suppress his racing heart and keep his mind clear to think of solutions!
Jiao family, it must not be ruined by him!
Almost all the Jiaos present started to feel their blood pressure rise and their hands turn cold. They were concerned because they had become beneficiaries after Jiao Jing's disappearance, and each of them knew something about the truth. If Jiao Jing hadn't died and decided to come back one day, then the consequences would be more than they could bear!
Jiao Shanxing exchanged a glance with his fourth brother, Jiao Shanwang. This younger brother was usually quick-witted and resourceful; he had provided much help at critical moments before. Perhaps this time, he might have some way to stop Wang Zheng's actions. However, Jiao Shanxing did not see any hope in his fourth brother’s eyes now. He saw only silence and perhaps a hint of expectation.
It seemed that this fourth brother wished for Jiao Jing's return!
Jiao Shanwang's gaze made Jiao Shanxing feel utterly disheartened; he realized that at this moment, his younger brother had parted ways with him.
"Let's listen and see what else he has to say," the third eldest, Jiao Shanyou, muttered resentfully: "I don't believe she could come back from the dead!"
Jiao Hanbing icily replied, "Those who are dead won’t return; but if they aren’t truly dead, then it’s uncertain."
"What do you mean by that" Jiao Shanyou shuddered and looked at Jiao Hanbing in disbelief: "Are you saying Jiao Jing isn’t dead That's impossible!"
The third eldest, Jiao Shanyou, was most afraid of Jiao Jing; she had brought him endless fear. Naturally, he was very unwilling to believe that Jiao Jing wasn't dead at this moment because if it were true, it would be a catastrophic message for him.
Jiao Hanbing hadn’t met Jiao Jing like Jiao Xuebing did before. But she remained calm now, much more composed than her cousins. With a sullen face, Jiao Hanbing said, "I’d rather believe she isn’t dead; otherwise, why is this Wang Zheng still alive and kicking here"
Qiao Hanbing is right; someone as calculating as Wang Zheng wouldn't waste his efforts.
Qiao Shanxing's sword-like eyebrows were tightly knitted together. As he looked at Wang Zheng, a dangerous glint flashed in his eyes. At this moment, the eldest young master of the Qiao family finally understood why Tang Qigang had been trembling like a sieve when he first saw Wang Zheng!
As the current head of the Qiao household, Qiao Shanxing was naturally aware of what his father and uncles had done in the past. From his position, there was no chance or power to overturn any judgment. Subconsciously, he didn't want to either; after all, if not for Qiao Jing's disappearance, he wouldn't have risen so high.
"Wang Zheng, why are you doing this Why must you force everyone into a corner before you're satisfied" Qiao Shanxing muttered to himself.
"Many people think that the eldest miss is already dead. Hong Kong is rife with such rumors, but I know the truth."
"Everyone, your expressions show many emotions, indicating how much everyone was affected by the disappearance of the eldest miss back then. Let's just make an assumption for now."
Wang Zheng deliberately paused here and clearly noticed that people's breathing had quickened.
Wang Zheng extended a finger and continued: "If this eldest miss were to return today, what interesting results would arise"
Interesting results
Are the results really so amusing Qiao Shanxing couldn't help but shake his head. Sweat was already seeping through his palms! He knew that Wang Zheng wouldn’t be making unfounded statements; if he had made this assumption, it would inevitably become reality!
It's truly terrifying to have someone who can meticulously exploit even the smallest details as an enemy. Being caught with any little mistake could lead to fatal consequences!
The people below started whispering amongst themselves because of Wang Zheng's words.
"What does he mean Does this imply that Qiao Jing is about to return"
"It's not just a matter of returning; it means she definitely will. Otherwise, what would be the point in him saying all these things here"
"Is Qiao Jing really still alive And were all those things he mentioned earlier true as well If so, the Qiao family is truly treacherous and vicious!"
"Let's wait and see. Who knows, maybe Qiao Jing will actually come back to life..."
Wang Zheng looked at the discussions among the elites in the hall with a slight smile on his face. He then made a gesture of pressing both hands down, immediately silencing everyone. The crowd was eagerly waiting for Wang Zheng's next words.
"I am also looking forward to her appearance," Wang Zheng said with a smile on his face but his eyes were gleaming with sharpness!
