To Defeat Scum, You Must Start Early, My Lady Chapter 181 – Conspiracy Plot (5) The Birth of Truth

Chapter 181: Chapter 179: Conspiracy Plot (5) The Birth of Truth

He left.

He’s gone!

Yin Qin silently observed the unfolding scene before him.

Many people were still looking at him.

At that moment, he felt like a laughingstock.

He wiped his eyes.

Damn!

He really cried.

For Ji Baixin, this woman, he really could become the most disgusting version of himself!

Clearly, he had long decided to call off the engagement, just waiting for Ji Baijian’s big wedding.

Tonight, he could have been very breezy, very casually telling Li Wenjun that he didn’t love Ji Baixin. Calling off the engagement had nothing to do with anyone, he was just tired of playing around, that’s all.

But in the end…

He was just spiteful enough to not want to let Li Wenjun get off easy.

He didn’t want to let Li Wenjun and Ji Baixin get off easy either.

And now…

Finally, he had made Ji Baixin even more disgusted with him.

No.

There could be no more.

Ji Baixin’s dislike for him had always run deep, clear down to her marrow.

Meanwhile…

At the wedding banquet hall that Yin Qin and Li Wenjun just left.

Everyone was mingling as usual, laughing and engaging in friendly competition.

Song Zhizhi pulled Ji Baijian towards the back garden of the banquet hall.

Ji Baijian had a smile on his face, looking particularly handsome. Song Zhizhi was very serious, “What are you laughing at!”

“It’s funny.”

“What’s funny about it? It’s a tense situation today, can you be a little more serious?”

Ji Baijian pursed his lips, suppressing his own smile.

Song Zhizhi looked at him.

So obedient?

This wasn’t the Ji Baijian she recognized.

“Why did you leave me behind just now?” Song Zhizhi was still upset.

“I knew you could handle it.”

“What if they had gotten me drunk?”

“They wouldn’t do that, and you know how to protect yourself.”

“Ji Baijian, do I have to act spoiled for you to even consider me a woman?” Song Zhizhi was upset, very upset.

Because she could look after herself, Ji Baijian could just ignore her?

“Act spoiled, let me see.” At that moment, Ji Baijian seemed to be seriously waiting.

Song Zhizhi, in her high heels, stepped on Ji Baijian’s foot.

Ji Baijian winced.

Song Zhizhi asked, “Do you consider me a pet?”

“That way I can keep you confined,” Ji Baijian answered with a straight face.

Song Zhizhi’s face turned red.

Could he be so casual, so bold even when talking about love? With a controlled heartbeat, she said, “Be serious.”

“So where were your thoughts going?” Ji Baijian raised an eyebrow.

She was thinking about nothing?!

But Song Zhizhi’s face only got redder.

Ji Baijian laughed again, “Miss Song, compose yourself.”

“Ji Baijian, I have something serious to tell you.” Song Zhizhi was flustered… like a deer in headlights.

“Go ahead.” Ji Baijian assumed a very calm demeanor.

“What deal did you make with Xin Zaozao?” Song Zhizhi was very serious, “She said you helped her with the bid.”

“Oh, it was me,” Ji Baijian admitted without hesitation, “Didn’t you ask me to win Xin Zaozao over?”

Song Zhizhi paused.

Was that it?

Just because she had said something casually, he remembered it?

Being moved by Ji Baijian was becoming a regular occurrence for Song Zhizhi.

He always caught her off guard, warming her heart to the point of bubbling over.

Ji Baijian saw the look on Song Zhizhi’s face, his eyebrows furrowing slightly, “Having regrets?”

“No,” Song Zhizhi replied, “I thought at the time you would just take what I said lightly. After all, back then… It seemed like we didn’t have any feelings for each other…”

“That was you,” Ji Baijian replied bluntly. Song Zhizhi felt a wave of emotion in her heart.

so.

Just when did Ji Baijian start to like her?

Was it not that person he was pursuing, but her?

She just looked at Ji Baijian.

Ji Baijian seemed unwilling to continue the topic. When Song Zhizhi attempted to probe further, he shifted the focus, “Xin Zaozao is indeed more capable than I imagined. At least, she knows exactly what she wants, and the resolve she takes towards the things she desires is very strong.”

“Xin Zaozao will turn out to be a very strong person.”

“Hm.” Ji Baijian did not doubt this.

Song Zhizhi suddenly thought of something and asked, “Xin Zaozao said that you gave her the bid price.”

“Yes.”

“I remember that I made some changes to the bid price for this diversion project. The finance department felt that there wouldn’t be a lot of bids for this project, so I lowered the bid to the minimum. Weren’t you afraid that your bid price would be lower by a bit?” Song Zhizhi asked out of curiosity.

“Do you think I saw Lu Yicheng’s plan for you?” Ji Baijian asked.

Song Zhizhi was taken aback.

Didn’t he see it?

Ji Baijian’s face was serious, “I still have the most basic business integrity.”

Song Zhizhi fell silent.

Ji Baijian seemed as if she had blasphemed him.

“I was too surprised by the price; very few people can estimate so accurately, so I…” Song Zhizhi started to explain.

Ji Baijian had an expression that suggested he wouldn’t let her go unless she explained clearly.

So Ji Baijian cared about his face after all.

Ji Baijian said, “Miss Song should not underestimate me.”

How dare she underestimate him, “Yes, you’re the smartest, the most capable person in the world.”

Ji Baijian reached out and petted her head as if petting a pet.

Ji Baijian, it’s fine to hit or bleed your head, but keep your hairstyle intact!

However, at that moment, Song Zhizhi didn’t resist.

She was even, submissive.

She was truly, truly conquered by Ji Baijian.

She even heard Ji Baijian said in a shameless tone, “It’s good as long as you know.”

The space between the two was somewhat subtle.

Song Zhizhi suddenly let out a sigh.

No matter how the topic was diverted, her thoughts always went back to the unsettling issues back at her home.

Ji Baijian could also sense her emotions.

He let go of her hand and said, “Let’s go in.”

They didn’t say anything else, but at that moment he was clearly reminding her that one should face all problems head-on.

Song Zhizhi nodded.

The two of them returned to the banquet hall.

It was already late, and the number of people in the banquet hall was gradually decreasing.

Song Zhizhi was looking for her father.

Her father was chatting and laughing merrily with others in the banquet hall, looking so self-contained, so self-contained.

Her throat bobbed.

The closer she was to the facts, the more nervous and afraid she became.

She had been reborn for such a long time and she had already adjusted her emotions, forgetting the pain of losing her family one by one. She firmly believed that she could definitely preserve her family.

She took a deep breath, “I am going to my father.”

“Hmm.”

Song Zhizhi told herself that the tragedy of the previous life absolutely won’t happen in this one.

In this life, those with malicious intentions will get what they deserve.

As Song Zhizhi approached her father, she suddenly saw Yi Wenhan, who was still in the banquet hall, chatting casually with his colleagues, seemingly unperturbed.

lust then. Yi Wenhan seemed to have noticed Song Zhizhi.

He turned around to look at Song Zhizhi.

His heart skipped a beat.

It seemed as though Song Zhizhi had discovered something.

He told himself to stay calm.

What could Song Zhizhi have found? It was merely her attempt to unsettle him.

With these thoughts, he regained his composure.

Even at that moment, he took the initiative to walk towards Song Zhizhi.

Song Zhizhi frowned at him.

Yi Wenhan said, “Congratulations.”

“Do you think I would accept anything from you?”

Yi Wenhan nonchalantly shrugged, “After all, I didn’t mean it.”

“So why bother with these hypocritical acts.” Song Zhizhi laughed coldly.

“Song Zhizhi, I never really understood what I did to make you hate me so much?” Yi Wenhan raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

What have you done? What have you done? Don’t you already know in your heart?

“If we can’t be a couple, is it so hard to even be friends?”

“Yi Wenhan, do you still need to play pretend?” Song Zhizhi coldly mocked, “Put away your disgusting fake face, I’m very clear about your purpose.”

Yi Wenhan•s face turned extremely gloomy.

Song Zhizhi didn’t care at all, she said, “From now on, I will be your superior.”

Yi Wenhan•s face turned even uglier.

He looked at Song Zhizhi fiercely, his suppressed emotions were gradually turning into rage.

“So from now on, whatever you do in Commercial Management, however you develop, depends on my mood.” Song Zhizhi laughed.

“Song Zhizhi!”

“I will enjoy this immensely.” Song Zhizhi deliberately provoked his emotions, “Let’s wait and see.”

After leaving a sentence behind, Song Zhizhi walked away holding her head high.

Yi Wenhan just watched her back view, watching her acting so carefree and triumphant.

You think, you think you can really laugh for a long time.

Ridiculous.

This is utterly ridiculous.

After tonight, after tonight, I will make you, Song Zhizhi, kneel under me, and I will make your life worse than death!

Song Zhizhi returned to her father.

Her father was chatting and laughing with Chu Zhaotian at the moment.

This was clearly a tense relationship between two people, but to outsiders, they seemed fine and harmonious.

Who in the workplace isn’t capable of putting up an award-winning performance?

Song Zhizhi quietly stood by her father, Song Shan.

At this moment, Chu Zhaotian was praising Song Zhizhi, he said, “Zhizhi is indeed excellent. In such a short period of time, she achieved so much, even Mr. Ye has high praise for you. It’s like the old saying goes, the back wave of the river drives on the front wave, us front waves will sooner or later die on the beach.”

“You’re too kind Mr. Chu. Zhizhi is still too young, she rushes in doing things. She is lucky to have some opportunities now, but when talking about ability in Commercial Management, she is still very inexperienced, not as good as your daughter Chu Qin. Chu Qin is someone we watched grow up, she is more stable than Zhizhi. I only worry that Zhizhi’s initial success will make her arrogant in the future.”

“Mr. Song, you are too modest, my daughter is just following the rules. She doesn’t have the potential that Zhizhi has, I am sure Zhizhi will accomplish much more in the future…”

Song Zhizhi stood on the side with a smile, not interrupting, listening to the two old men being modest, essentially boasting their own.

Her gaze unintentionally or intentionally looked at Chu Zhaotian.

Could it be that Chu Zhaotian is related to the behind-the-scenes black hand of their family?

Could it be that Liu Zizhong and Chu Zhaotian are colluding?

Her lips were tightly pursed.

The night was growing late.

The banquet was nearing its end.

The banquet hall was more than half empty.

Song Shan had finished comparing with Chu Zhaotian at this time, he was a bit tired, he said, “It’s late, let’s go home.”

Song Zhizhi nodded.

The moment she nodded, she turned her head and looked at Ji Baijian.

Ji Baijian was still standing in a corner of the banquet hall, looking at Song Zhizhi who was looking at him, he gave her a firm look.

Song Zhizhi turned her head back.

Ji Baijian always gives her confidence.

She adjusted her breathing secretly, and with her father, she sat in the car heading back Luo Xiaolang was driving.

The night was late, Song Shan seldom stayed up late now, so he seemed obviously tired at this moment.

Song Zhizhi pursed her lips, slowly took a deep breath, she said, “Dad, there’s something I want to discuss with you.”

“What is it?” Song Shan’s tone was very light. Song Zhizhi said, “About, Auntie’s matter.”

“Wenzhi? What happened to her?”

“Dad, if I say that Auntie has other motives for getting close to you, would you believe me?” Song Zhizhi asked him.

It really took courage to ask him at that moment.

Initially somewhat sleepy Song Shan suddenly seemed a lot more alert, he looked at his daughter, ‘What are you talking about? What motive could your aunt have? She’s been with me for so many years and has always been diligent towards me and our family. If you must talk about motive, all she wants is a peaceful life and to ensure she have enough to eat and wear.”

“Dad. ” Song Zhizhi said, “Between Auntie and me, who would you choose to believe?” Without explaining anything else first, she wanted to push her father to admit.

Song Shan frowned slightly, “Zhizhi, what is going on with you lately? Why are you acting so strangely? Is it because you’re not getting enough rest? Stop talking nonsense and go home and rest early. You’re just starting out in the Commercial Management organization, you have a great future ahead of you, don’t let your thoughts run wild, understand?”

“Answer me first.” Song Zhizhi was very firm.

Clearly she would not drop it.

Song Shan was helpless, “I trust you both. I’m getting older and I crave stability as I age. Seeing your growth now, I feel even more at ease. Don’t make it difficult for your father. You are very important, but your Auntie has been with me for so many years, I don’t want to let her down in my old age.”

“I’m not trying to break up a pair of lovers. If Auntie is sincere, I will bless you. But Dad, Auntie really isn’t as simple as you think, and you are now in danger.” Song Zhizhi wasn’t joking, her expression was very serious.

However, Song Shan didn’t seem to take her words to heart, he reached out to touch her forehead, “Are you feeling unwell?”

“Don’t you trust me?” Song Zhizhi was angry at that moment.

Fortunately, the Song Zhizhi now was not like the one who had just been reincarnated, the one who had nothing to her name, her father would now affirm her achievements more, which was why Ji Baijian felt that now was the best time for her to reveal everything.

Song Shan said, “When did I stop trusting you?”

“I know you and Auntie have a good relationship, my brother and I have never opposed anything, on the contrary, we are grateful for Auntie’s presence, which has given our home a sense of warmth. But Dad, sometimes, we are deceived too deeply by the surface illusion that we cannot discern the truth.”

“Zhizhi, what do you want your father to do in the end?” Song Shan seemed not to want to play any more guessing games.

At this moment, the look on his face had become significantly more severe.

Song Zhizhi looked at her father and then spoke in a slow, clear manner.

Song Shan was surprised.

Very surprised.

He didn’t want to believe it, but his daughter was so serious. That look in her eyes, he had never seen before. It was as if he couldn’t refuse her in that moment.

Indeed.

Song Zhizhi was his daughter. No matter what, even if he found it unlikely, he would still do as his daughter wished.

After all, Song Zhizhi’s performance during this period had surpassed all his imagination.

Therefore, it was very likely that his daughter really knew something unknown to others.

After she finished speaking, Song Zhizhi only breathed a sigh of relief after her father nodded in agreement.

She knew her father was skeptical, but as long as he promised to do as she said, that was fine.

After this performance, some people’s true colors would be fully revealed.

She was really grateful, grateful that she could clear the time bomb around her father before she left this home.

The car slowly arrived at the Song Family courtyard.

Song Zhizhi and Song Shan got out of the car.

The moment Song Shan calmly walked towards the front door, Song Zhizhi grabbed her father’s hand.

Song Shan gave her a gentle smile, “Don’t worry. I will definitely fulfill what I have promised. I also want to see how capable my daughter is.”

Song Zhizhi knew that this sentence from her father was actually testing her.

If Ji Baijian’s estimation was wrong, if Nie Wenzhi doesn’t do anything tonight, then…

Her trust in her father’s eyes would drop dramatically, and more importantly, her father would be even less guarded against Nie Wenzhi in the future.

Song Zhizhi took a deep breath.

Don’t doubt Ji Baijian.

She believed in his intuition.

No, that’s not intuition, it’s a conclusion drawn from strong reasoning.

They returned to the hall together.

Nie Wenzhi was still waiting for Song Shan. Seeing him return, she approached him gently, “Husband, why did you come back so late tonight? As you age, you can’t stay up all night like this.”

Song Shan smiled softly, “Tonight, Zhizhi is the main character. Of course, I need to stay a bit longer so the institution can have a good impression of her.”

“That makes sense.” Nie Wenzhi nodded. She sounded very pleased. “I heard that Zhizhi is very capable now. She’s a rising star in the commercial management institution, and she has even been promoted twice recently. Not everyone has this ability! All the people in the Song family are indeed elites. Now that Zhizhi is doing so well, she will do even better in the future.”

Nie Wenzhi’s flattery indeed captured Song Shan’s heart.

In the past, Song Zhizhi was also manipulated by her sweet words.

Fortunately.

Fortunately, heaven has given her a chance to see through Nie Wenzhi’s false mask.

She said, “Auntie, how did you know that I got promoted twice? I don’t think I’ve told you about this.” Nie Wenzhi’s face seemed to change slightly at that moment.

Because Song Zhizhi had said a few things to Song Shan in the car tonight, Song Shan didn’t back Nie Wenzhi up at this moment.

Nie Wenzhi quickly returned to her normal demeanor. Her face changed so quickly, you wouldn’t notice if you weren’t paying very close attention. She said casually, “Of course your father told me. He speaks highly of you.”

Song Shan’s brows knitted together slightly.

He seemed to have not told Nie Wenzhi about this matter.

Because most of the time, he didn’t want to bring his work problems home. On one hand, he didn’t want Nie Wenzhi to worry about his work. On the other hand, he also didn’t want to talk about work with other people regardless of the circumstances. After all, considering his position, there were always some secrets that couldn’t be told openly.

He had never dug deeply into what Nie Wenzhi said before. However, at this moment, because Song Zhizhi had said a few things that made him feel a bit uncomfortable in the car, he was clearly aware of the truth behind Nie Wenzhi’s words.

But Song Shan didn’t say anything at that moment.

Song Zhizhi also calmly responded with a smile, “So it was my father who told you. No wonder you knew so clearly even though you’re at home all day. My dad really does tell you everything.”

“Your father cares about you and that’s why he would do so.” Nie Wenzhi appeared to be very kind and added warmly, “Auntie considers you as her own daughter. Even when I’m at home, I pay attention to your growth. I hope you and your brother can achieve something in the future, so your father and I can be reassured.”

Song Zhizhi smiled, not expressing much gratitude, “As she wished. It’s getting late, I’m going to bed.”

Nie Wenzhi nodded with a smile.

But she felt a little uneasy inside.

Was Song Zhizhi hinting at something?

She thought about what she was going to do tonight…

It’s no big deal.

Once tonight is over, everything will settle down. Even if Song Zhizhi knew anything, it wouldn’t change anything.

Song Zhizhi, and all the Song family members, just wait until they become penniless overnight! As Song Zhizhi left the hall, she looked back at her father, “Dad, you should go to bed early too.”

Song Shan nodded, knowing what Song Zhizhi meant to say at that moment.

He also gave her a firm answer.

Only after receiving Song Shan’s confirmation did Song Zhizhi return to her room with Luo Xiaolang.

The moment they returned to their rooms, Song Zhizhi said to Luo Xiaolang, “Don’t sleep tonight. I’ll call you if anything happens.” “Okay.”

Song Zhizhi entered her own room.

She certainly wouldn’t sleep either.

She was waiting, just waiting, for a result..
