Chapter 108 - You Want to Get Revenge for Your Sister?
Papa Mu did not expect that Mu Qiqi and Su Zipei would really fight against him.
He did not really think that he was cold-hearted and vicious. But, to Mu Qiqi and Su Zipei, that scum was really Mu Tangxue’s father. They behaved just as wicked as each other. So, Mu Qiqi and Su Zipei did not want to leave them with any hope this time.
Mu Qiqi spent the whole night in the study writing an article about the fire. She wanted to make it as convincing as possible so that the readers would believe it.
At eleven o’clock, Sheng Xiao found no one sleeping beside him. So, he got up and walked to the study.
Mu Qiqi was still working in the study. He walked straight to her and lifted her up from the chair.
“Xiaoxiao…”
“Who permitted you to use my study?” said Sheng Xiao coldly.
“I am just borrowing it. I didn’t touch your things.”
“It is already eleven o’clock. Didn’t you know I will go around looking for you?” Sheng Xiao carried her back to the bedroom and pinned her on the bed. “Do you really have to work this hard? The media is more capable of writing these articles.”
Mu Qiqi looked down after hearing what Sheng Xiao said.
“I am useless. I can only do things that won’t help.”
“It is good that you work hard but, you should know how to make full use of the resources and maximize their strength for your own advantage. Things might not turn out well even after you have worked hard for it. They have specialties and skills that you don’t have. Do you understand what I am saying?” explained Sheng Xiao.
Mu Qiqi nodded in agreement. “Xiaoxiao, I understand now.”
“Then let’s go to bed.” Sheng Xiao rolled over and pulled the blanket for her. “Get in.”
Mu Qiqi obediently got onto the bed and lay down. Then, she asked, “Xiaoxiao, can I use my draft? Because I experienced it first-hand, I think the readers will be able to empathize with me more easily when my draft is used.”
Sheng Xiao pulled her into his arms and said, “Alright, but promise me to stay by my side. You have the biggest effect on me!”
“Xiaoxiao, you are getting hot. Are you…”
“So, you should not always trigger me.” Sheng Xiao gave his warning.
Mu Qiqi did not dare to say anything more. She stayed quietly in Sheng Xiao’s arm. She did not dare to move, fearing she would turn him on again.
…
The next morning, Su Zipei and Lu Wenhua visited Mu Qiqi’s youngest uncle.
He was the youngest son among the Mu brothers. Although he held eight percent of the shares and lived a luxurious life, he was not favored by his father. He did not show it, but he had great interest in managing the company.
Although he did not show it, the people close to him knew his desire.
He was surprised to see Su Zipei and Lu Wenhua coming to look for him. But he still asked his wife to make them some good tea and talk to them in the backyard.
“Such rare visitors. Aren’t you my brother’s sister-in-law? I am very curious why you came looking for me.” Mr. Mu Xiao was a tall and slim man. He looked a bit lazy, unlike someone who wanted to take charge of things.
“I think Mr. Mu Xiao is aware of my sister’s death. This is why I came here. I want to make you my ally.” Su Zipei told him directly, “Do you want to be the one in charge of Mu Group?”
Mr. Mu Xiao laughed. He said, “It looks like you want to get revenge for your sister.”
“Yes.”
“I am curious about why you came to me. I have two older brothers.”
“Because I am sure that once Mu Group is in your hand, nobody will be able to take it away from you. If you agree with our alliance, I will vote for you in the board meeting and give you my shares. There is nothing that you will lose. You will have all the glory.”
Mr. Mu Xiao laughed again. He said, “But I cannot simply call for a board meeting for the replacement of the president. I must have a reason to do so.”
“We have prepared a good reason for it. You just have to become my ally.”
Seeing Su Zipei’s eyes, he knew that she hated Papa Mu.
“So are you implying that my brother killed your sister?”
“Now that my sister is dead, he does not have to give her half of his property, and he can even remarry and have children. Won’t you be suspicious? Moreover, he buried my sister in such a haste without my permission. If he was not guilty, why would he do this in such a rush?”
After hearing her explanation, Mr. Mu Xiao nodded in agreement.
“Perhaps you are right.”
“So…”
“If things are really like what you say, this will be a very good chance for me. Of course I will not let it pass my hand, but I want you to sign an agreement with me as a guarantee. I do not wish to see you break your promise and give me nothing after betraying my brother, don’t you agree with me?”
Actually, signing an agreement was also a guarantee for Su Zipei.
“Deal!”
Then, they signed and sealed the agreement.
An alliance was formed.
“In the next few days, Mu Group will face another crisis. When that scum asks about it, you just pretend not to know anything. Then, we will give him a fatal blow.”
“As you say.”
People always say that a man seeking revenge was the most terrifying person. But actually, a woman seeking revenge should be deemed the scariest.
Mr. Mu Xiao sent them out of his house. Then, he started wondering about Lu Wenhua’s identity.
Somehow, his wife knew him and explained, “He is the vice-principal of Eaton. You never care about what happens to the children in school, of course, you will not know. Anyhow, it shows that Su Zipei is well-prepared.”
“Things are going to be fun.”
…
The next day, Mu Qiqi made her move. Although Sheng Xiao already told her that the paparazzi were very skillful in creating stories, she did not dare to let her guard down.
In fact, the paparazzi would not dare to do things half-heartedly after receiving orders from Jing Yun.
Soon after, an article entitled “In order to avoid dividing property in a divorce, he chose to burn his wife” was published in various platforms.
When the article was published, it drew the attention of many readers.
The article was written from an insider’s perspective and the story was told in a suspenseful manner. It told the story of a president of a company who decided to kill his wife who was seeking a divorce from him. He disguised her death as a fire accident and would not let other people claim her body after she had died.
Once the article was out, it caused a lot of controversy.
Not only that, people were starting to guess who the characters were in the article.
Where on earth was this wicked husband and who was this pitiful wife…?
