After I died, I became the white moonlight of the crazy villain.
Chapter 147 Land Transfer
The bright lights made it impossible for me to see who it was, but I soon heard a familiar voice, filled with suppressed anger, "Let them go!"
Hearing that it was Xu Qing who came, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief. My arm was still numb from the pain. Then the lights were turned off, and I closed my eyes for a while before the dizziness gradually subsided.
Xu Qing stood to the side, watching as the person opened the detention chair and then squatted down next to me. "Are you alright? Luckily, Ge Zeyu called me specifically because he was worried you wouldn't be able to handle the situation here. It's also fortunate that I arrived in time."
I was in so much pain that I couldn't speak, so I could only nod slightly. Xu Qing made a phone call, and medical personnel arrived quickly and re-bandaged my wound right there in the room.
Director Gao arrived shortly afterward. Upon seeing the situation inside, his eyes flickered slightly, then his face darkened, and he turned to reprimand his two subordinates behind him.
"What's wrong with you two? You've been trained for so long, and you've even forgotten the basic procedures? Who gave you permission to use such violent methods? Neither of you need to come in tomorrow."
After he finished speaking with a displeased expression, he turned to face Xu Qing and his attitude instantly became gentle. "Mr. Xu, I'm really sorry to have troubled you to come all this way. These two are newly hired contract workers here. I didn't expect this to happen."
"It's fortunate that you came, allowing us to discover this problem in time. I promise that this will never happen again."
He shirked all responsibility with just a few words, and I couldn't help but curse him as shameless in my heart!
If it weren't for his instructions, those two wouldn't have dared to do this. If something went wrong, they would have just said they were contract workers. No wonder they were so fearless; they had already made preparations.
Xu Qing also sneered, standing in front of Director Gao, and said in a cold voice, "You don't need to explain this to me. You can explain it to Ge Zeyu yourself after he comes out!"
After saying that, he turned to me and said, "I'll take you home first!"
To my surprise, as soon as I stood up, Director Gao reached out to stop me, saying, "The statement hasn't been taken yet, and Mr. Xu is already taking people away. This has caused quite a stir online. If you do this, the public opinion outside will get out of control."
"Mr. Xu is a businessman, so he should know how much this matter will affect you if it blows up. These days, young people are the most prone to speculation."
Xu Qing's face suddenly darkened, and her voice grew even colder, as crisp as ice, "Are you threatening me?"
"of course not!"
He quickly denied it, his face still bearing a smiling expression, yet he inexplicably gave off the feeling of an old fox.
“If you want to bail someone out, that’s your prerogative, of course you can. I’m just worried that people outside might be unhappy if they know about this privilege.”
"Mr. Xu, I heard that some people have been causing trouble at your company recently. Although the rumors have subsided, who knows when another wave of trouble might break out?"
He's a Changxin person, and I'm not surprised that he's deliberately making things difficult for us with this matter. What I'm curious about is what he's been trying to get from us lately.
These petty tricks will only cause us trouble, but they won't seriously harm Uncle Ge. Chang Xin isn't that stupid; he wouldn't just do this to cause us some bad luck. So he must have a deeper purpose.
Xu Qing naturally understood the key point, found a place to sit down and asked, "Let's not beat around the bush, why don't you tell me what you really want?"
“I want the land under Mr. Xu’s name!” He said as he took a file folder and placed it in front of Xu Qing. “It’s quite a coincidence. I accidentally discovered something interesting. It turns out that Mr. Xu and Young Master Ge are old acquaintances.”
Hearing his words, my heart skipped a beat. This was definitely not a coincidence; he must have found out about it through some means.
Since he was able to investigate this relationship between Ge Zeyu and Xu Qing, he must have also found out that the land under Xu Qing's name was jointly owned by him and Ge Zeyu.
This made me increasingly suspicious that there must be something strange about the land in the east of the city. These people all want this land, either because it can bring great economic value, or because it is hiding some secret.
The latter is less likely; the former is the most probable. Although Chang Xin has connections, he still needs to cultivate those connections himself if he wants to climb the ladder.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to carry out his work, and everything he does would be extremely difficult.
Xu Qing once again used delaying tactics, neither refusing nor agreeing, saying he needed to consider it.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Director Gao laughed, "Mr. Xu just said that people don't beat around the bush, so why are you suddenly joking now? I won't fall for delaying tactics. If you agree, you can sign now."
Xu Qing frowned and hesitated for a moment, then seemed to soften his stance and put forward a condition: "No more rumors about this matter are allowed to circulate outside. Release both of them, and I will sign the document immediately."
After he finished speaking, the person on the other end hesitated and said tentatively, "Mr. Xu, shouldn't you discuss this with your other partner?"
"Don't worry about that. Although he also paid for the land, it's officially under my name!" Xu Qing said firmly, as if he had made up his mind.
This left me feeling uneasy, like I was holding my breath, wondering why we had to be forced into this situation.
"We can't give him the land! They want it so much, it seems its future value is immeasurable." I chose this moment to reveal the key secret, ignoring the look that Director Gao was giving me, and continued speaking.
I'm increasingly convinced that the project development in the west of the city is a scam. Maybe they knew it from the beginning and deliberately cheated people out of a lot of money, then transferred it to the east of the city.
“Miss Jiang, this land naturally has its uses for us. I advise you to keep quiet for your own sake.” He gritted his teeth, his tone carrying a hint of threat.
Xu Qing stood up and stood between us, making no attempt to hide her protectiveness towards me, and said firmly, "I'll sign the land transfer agreement!"
