Chapter 587: Evil will be punished
The crowd's agreement infuriated Xie Qingyi. She angrily smashed the necklace on the ground, and the fake gemstone cracked.
This thing doesn't even qualify as crystal.
"This thing is too fake. It was actually switched out, and Madam Zhan didn't even know."
"Yan Lan is certainly despicable, but it's quite laughable that Madam Zhan didn't even know her jewelry had been stolen."
"I still suffer from a lack of education!"
Listening to the gossip, Xie Qingyi felt utterly humiliated and wanted nothing more than to strangle Yan Lan.
"You shameless woman, look what you've done."
Yan Lan was also in a panic; she didn't know how this could have happened.
How could Jiang Qianhui know so many things, even who the Brilliant Star was sold to? These are things that even she didn't know.
"Madam Zhan, hurry home and check! How much of your valuable but rarely worn jewelry and antiques has she sold off? Go and investigate thoroughly."
While it's true that it's hard to guard against thieves within your own household, you still need to be discerning. Don't let your own belongings be replaced with fakes, and then you end up giving away a fake antique vase or flaunting fake jewelry. That would be truly embarrassing!
Xie Qingyi was so angry her face turned green, and she directly pulled Yan Lan over.
Xie Qingyi angrily launched into a tirade of curses.
"You spendthrift woman, just how many of the Zhan family's belongings have you resold? What else have you sold?"
"Mom, it wasn't me, it wasn't me, Jiang Qianhui framed me."
"Now that things have come to this, you're still trying to argue? Do you think I'm a fool?"
Xie Qingyi angrily slapped Yan Lan again, knocking her to the ground. Yan Lan stared at Jiang Qianhui with vicious eyes, like a ferocious beast that might pounce at any moment.
Li Wanyin stood in front of Jiang Qianhui and said to Xie Qingyi, "Madam Zhan, you should teach your family a lesson behind closed doors, so as not to offend everyone's eyes."
Xie Qingyi was furious but couldn't say anything, so she could only angrily pull Yan Lan away.
Just as they were arguing at the entrance of the banquet, she heard Old Mrs. Gao say to Jiang Qianhui, "Miss Jiang, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you just now. To express our apology, I have decided to award our Gao Group's 10 billion yuan order to the JC Group."
Everyone was instantly shocked by Old Mrs. Gao's words. After all, the Gao family's business had always been in Country Y, and now they would suddenly award a multi-billion dollar order to the JC Group.
Jiang Qianhui said calmly, "Grandma Gao, once the misunderstanding is cleared up, the Gao family still needs to carefully investigate potential partners."
The Gao family's daughter-in-law said, "Mr. Jiang, we trust your character. We came back this time not only to celebrate my mother-in-law's birthday, but also to seek partners in Country A. You are our best partner."
"I hope we can cooperate happily."
The two people standing at the door were completely devastated.
Unexpectedly, the Gao family not only returned to China to celebrate the old lady's birthday, but also came to Country A to seek business partners.
They were furious that such a good thing had fallen into Jiang Qianhui's lap.
……
Zhanjia
"You jinx! If it weren't for you, that multi-billion dollar order from the Gao family would have been our Zhan Group. Now that the Zhan family has secured the military cooperation, in Country A, who can compete with our Zhan Group? It's all your fault!"
"Mom, this is all Jiang Qianhui's scheme. She deliberately tried to embarrass our Zhan family!"
"You still dare to argue? Yan Lan, you're truly heartless. You actually dared to sell our Zhan family heirloom? Now, to get our Zhan family heirloom back, we'll have to pay 500 million. That originally belonged to our Zhan family. Tell me, how many other things have you sold?"
Xie Qingyi was furious, never expecting that a thief had emerged from their Zhan family.
"Mom, I didn't. This is a conspiracy, a conspiracy."
"You're still trying to deny it? I've already sent Xuekun back and had someone inventory the jewelry. Let me tell you, you'd better tell me the truth."
Yan Lan's mentality collapsed from the blow, and now she can't think of any reason to exonerate herself except to make excuses.
How did Jiang Qianhui find out about all these things she did?
At this moment, the butler came over with a grim expression, looking like he wanted to say something but dared not.
"Tell me, how many things in this house are fake!"
Butler: "Madam, after investigation and verification, 20% of the jewelry, jade, and antiques in the house have suspicious aspects."
Xie Qingyi heard
"It seems you've already investigated thoroughly."
Xie Qingyi exploded instantly, at 20%.
She thought that even if Yan Lan was bold, she would only steal a few things at most, but she didn't expect it to be 20%, such a huge amount.
"Yan Lan, you shameless woman, how dare you steal so many things to sell? Does our Zhan family lack you for food or clothing? You are truly despicable! I originally thought it was just an actress who entered our home, but I never expected it was a thief who broke in."
Yan Lan remained silent, watching Xie Qingyi's agitated state and her heart rate fluctuate wildly. She was still gambling; the slow-acting poison she had given Xie Qingyi took effect, and Xie Qingyi died on the spot.
She dared to sell off the Zhan family's assets because she had drugged Xie Qingyi.
She thought that once Xie Qingyi died, everything in the Zhan family mansion would be hers.
However, fearing that he would be found out about it, he dared not take too much medicine, but unexpectedly, Jiang Qianhui discovered it in advance.
Now she could only secretly pray to God that Xie Qingyi would be so angry that he would die on the spot.
Just as Xie Qingyi was getting emotional and had difficulty breathing, she suddenly noticed that Jiang Qianhui had arrived.
"What are you here for?"
Jiang Qianhui calmly said, "If I hadn't discovered that there was a thief in your Zhan family, the Zhan family would have been emptied out long ago. Shouldn't you be thanking me?"
"You're only thanking me because you have ulterior motives."
Jiang Qianhui scoffed: "Whether I had good intentions or not, I did a good deed by helping you minimize your losses. Otherwise, how many real weapons would you still have in this house?"
As Jiang Qianhui spoke, she smashed several decorative items in the living room onto the ground.
Xie Qingyi: "Jiang Qianhui, what are you doing? Don't worry, I've already investigated. These things are all fake and worthless. Putting a fake here will only make people laugh."
Yan Lan said, "Jiang Qianhui, you are really too arrogant."
"Am I too arrogant, or are you too audacious to take things from the Zhan family and resell them, even passing them off as genuine!"
Yan Lan was so angry she wanted to bite her teeth.
Xie Qingyi pointed at Yan Lan angrily and said, "If you don't bring back all those things you've been reselling, I'll take your dog's life."
Although Xie Qingyi is the wife of the Zhan family, she is only generous to herself and extremely stingy to her daughter-in-law. She feels that her daughter-in-law is there to take advantage of their family, especially someone like Yan Lan, whose background she looks down on.
They're so poor, yet they managed to get close to the Zhan family. Now, I never expected that Yan Lan would secretly sell their Zhan family's antiques. I'm absolutely furious.
