The next day, my dad took me to the Royal Court.

The organizers of this bidding event specially booked the largest venue here to host the event.

Those attending the bidding meeting were all bigwigs, and reporters were also in position early.

As soon as they got out of the car, the flashbulbs went off. If it weren't for the security guards, the reporters would have surrounded them long ago.

My dad greeted a few acquaintances and then led me into the venue.

I looked around and quickly found Song Chenhao.

He was accompanied by Bian Jiahui and followed by a middle-aged man, who was Lu Yuntian, the head of the Lu family and also our Jiang family's strongest competitor.

Lu Yuntian is a well-known smiling tiger in the business world. Although his methods are not clean, he has a business mind.

Originally, the Lu family's company was a small, insignificant entity, but after Lu Yuntian took over, he quickly developed it into a company that could stand shoulder to shoulder with the Jiang family.

I turned and called out to my dad, then gestured for him to look in Bian Jiahui's direction. "Dad, are you curious why I said the bidding documents were leaked? Now you should understand."

When my dad saw what was happening over there, he frowned deeply. "You mean Jia Hui stole the bidding documents?"

I nodded. I had endured this for so long just so that my dad could see Bian Jiahui's true colors.

“I saw her go into your study and take away the bidding documents.”

"Impossible!" My dad retorted instinctively after hearing what I said.

I was stunned for a moment. Why was Dad so sure?

Even if you trust Bian Jiahui, you shouldn't be so blindly devoted.

At the same time, I looked up and saw that my dad's expression paused slightly.

The moment their eyes met, he turned his head away. "Wanwan, you can't say things without evidence."

I opened my mouth, about to say I had evidence, when one of my business partners came over to say hello, so I had to swallow my words.

Anyway, there's no rush. We already have the evidence, and it's only a matter of time before Bian Jiahui's true colors are exposed.

Seeing my dad surrounded by several uncles I had worked with, I got up and went to the restroom. On my way back, Song Chenhao blocked my way.

"Jiang Wanying, do you really think your family can win the bid like we did in the last life?"

I looked at his smug expression and didn't say anything.

Song Chenhao smiled gently, elegantly adjusted his cuffs, and said smugly, "If you apologize to me now, I can consider forgiving you and no longer targeting your family."

Hearing this, I couldn't help but laugh out loud. Where did he get the nerve to say such a thing?

"Song Chenhao, you're too arrogant. Do you think the Jiang family needs to be afraid of your targeting?"

Originally, I wanted to let him be smug for a little longer, but now I'm not so sure I can hold back anymore. "Do you think that you have a lot of skills but just lack a platform to use them, so when you succeed, you look down on the stepping stone you used to use and think you can destroy it at will?"

"Then I have to tell you, there are plenty of ambitious people in this world, but having a platform to showcase your talents is the most important thing. Without that platform, you are nothing."

I looked at his darkening face, but I wasn't afraid.

The current Song Chenhao is just a wolf without claws and teeth; he looks powerful but can only resort to ruthless methods.

"Jiang Wanying, you'll regret this." He said through gritted teeth, "After today, even if you kneel down and beg me, it won't be of any use."

I remained expressionless, took a few steps closer, and stared intently at him. "You don't want me to regret this, do you? It's that stolen bid document, is it?"

His expression changed, and he straightened up considerably, instinctively asking, "How did you..."

He paused at this point.

I raised the corners of my lips and answered frankly, "You want to ask me how I knew you were going to steal the bidding documents, right?"

"Now that I know you've also been reborn, how could I not take precautions?"

I was blind in my last life, but I won't be blind in this one.

His breathing quickened, and his eyes burned with anger as he shamelessly questioned me, "You did this on purpose, didn't you? You just can't stand to see me doing well, you want to ruin me, you're as vicious as ever."

I knew Song Chenhao was shameless, but I never imagined he could be this shameless.

He framed me and wouldn't let me fight back.

I didn't want to waste my breath arguing with him, so I just mocked him, "You achieved success by standing on the shoulders of others, but now you're ungrateful and disloyal. You have time to sit here and curse your benefactors. You should think about how to explain your incompetence to your new backer."

The head of the Gu Group is not someone to be trifled with. Since Song Chenhao took the money but failed to deliver, the Gu family will definitely make him return the money with interest in order to get revenge.

Upon hearing my words, his face contorted for a moment.

I turned and left, then casually sat down next to my dad.

The next bidding meeting was to announce the relief measures, and soon it was the time for the Gu Group to take the stage.

When the host on stage read out the Gu family's bid, I saw my dad's eyes widen instantly, his pupils constrict, and he looked clearly incredulous.

However, he quickly composed himself and joined the others in smiling and clapping.

The last bid was from our family. My dad listened to my advice and changed the price, only one yuan higher than the original bid.

Upon hearing this price, the expressions of the assembled bigwigs varied.

They were all seasoned businessmen; they sensed something was amiss just from the price.

Coincidences are the least believable thing.

I turned to look at Gu's father, whose face was somewhat ashen, but he remained silent.

Song Chenhao and Bian Jiahui, who were standing next to him, looked flustered.

I was too far away to hear what Song Chenhao was saying, but I could see his mouth opening and closing incessantly, and his face growing increasingly pale.

I looked away and stopped paying attention to the two people.

Once the bidding process ends, barring any unforeseen circumstances, our family will acquire the land. With a successful collaboration with the government on this project, the company's IPO will be a certainty.

My dad dealt with the compliments from these people and prepared to leave with me. We had only taken two steps when Bian Jiahui came up to us.

"Uncle Jiang, congratulations on winning the bid." She spoke with a calm demeanor, as if stealing the bid documents was not something she had done.

I retorted sarcastically, "It's all thanks to you! If you had stolen the bidding documents, Dad wouldn't have been sure about Gu Jia's price!"

The Gu family stole our bid price and then read our bids ahead of us, all to make us suffer in silence. Unfortunately for them, they were caught by our home security cameras.

Bian Jiahui clenched her hands tightly, her expression blank. "Wanwan, I know you hate me, but you can't wrong me like this! Last time with the necklace, you accused me of taking it without any evidence, and now it's the same thing again."

"Wanwan, it's not up to me to decide who Hao likes. You can't target me just because you like him!"

Her face was full of grievance, and her voice, neither too loud nor too soft, immediately started the gossip of those around her.

My dad also frowned and looked at me.

I was a little puzzled. What was Bian Jiahui relying on that made her not only unafraid of me causing her trouble, but also daring to turn the tables on me here?

Before I could even produce the surveillance footage, Bian Jiahui spoke up again with an air of righteous indignation, "Since you say I stole the bidding documents and gave them to Gu's Group, why don't we have Mr. Gu himself come out and explain what exactly happened with the bidding documents!"
