Chapter 15: Retaliation
Unfortunately, in contrast to her hope, the system gave her a negative answer. Although she already was convinced it should be this way since which stallion man had she se giv up collecting beautiful girls, Ling Qingyu was definitely pissed.
Cursing at the system for the injustice happing in the world, Ling Qingyu asked herself in suspicion. 'Wait, every woman related to me somehow became a member? How does that work?'
Now the two female guards lost their attraction wh compared with other wom inside this room. But if the outside world scored them, they could easily achieve an 8.
Ev though Ling Qingyu was highly suspicious of this world where so many beauties were available, she took it for granted as it should be.
[You are his nominal wife. And according to the script, it would all start with you.]
'Damn!'
[Besides, you and this man had a marriage contract since childbirth made by the grandparts. These days, people call it—baby kiss.]
'…'
Ling Qingyu now doubted whether the male protagonist in this world was meant to be her emy. Any information related to him rushed her blood to the brain. Now she had to divorce the main character.
Which characters had she se doing well after breaking up in any novels? It appeared the will of the world was at work. Won't she suffer the same fate if she willfully canceled this contract?
[No, you won't. Have faith in your system? The will of this world will never ever be able to cause havoc to our previous plan. Of course, this system couldn't directly interfere despite the capability.]
[You should understand, everything should be achieved by yourself as much as possible without relying on this system.]
'I bother.' Ling Qingyu let out her breath and recollected her thoughts. Wh she looked again at her two guards, her fist clched and her heart itched to beat the shit out of the protagonist.
She seemed familiar with Su Ruomei while the other merely rang a bell inside her mind a name—Jiang Yu. Anyway, it didn't matter as long as these beauties were related to her.
"It appears our Presidt Ling had wok up," Su Ruomei said. "Good to see you well after all several news."
"Thank you," Ling Qingyu could only reply as such because she had no memory yet. What if she blew her cover? Think of the consequces her heart shuddered. None of the wom this body was familiar with were easy to mess with.
Nobody thought she did anything wrong. The patit was important above all else here. Zhao Xiurong couldn't bear to conceal the news and looked at Ling Qingyu for permission.
Ling Qingyu rolled her eyes and helplessly nodded. Rumors spread across wom faster. She wondered how long she could ask Zhao Xiurong to keep the secret and now the answer slapped her face.
Also, it might be because these new companions who just tered the room were indeed trustworthy. Studying their temperamt, they were like what she thought initially, at least more than her previous life.
Zhao Xiurong explained why she had to keep this a secret and how the presidt had found any evidce that the accidt was inttional. Calling them here was also for Ling Qingyu's security.
"What! Really?" Su Ruomei exclaimed and her reaction wasn't strange. "Gosh! Why is our Presidt Ling being targeted? Ev if the business world is cruel, anything should go within the boundary of the law. This is too lawless."
Ling Qingyu raised her eyebrows at her cute guard's innocce. Who made the law? Those in power; the answer was too obvious.
"Where do you find such evidce?" Another one called Jiang Yu asked.
Ling Qingyu's eyes turned toward her and pointed her finger at her head. "My memory. That man who crashed into my car wasn't the same as the one in shock or feeling guilty. He was stoic standing there watching me submerged in flames. Luckily, someone managed to save me as told by the nurses here."
She again pointed at Tang Ziyi who was focused on her laptop. The three's head was in her direction. "My frid also hacked into the surveillance system here and the CCTV wasn't working in that specific area on that day. Coincidce? I think not."
Su Ruomei's expression was amazed wh she found out the beautiful woman working on the laptop had a godlike talt. As someone related to these fields, she understood how arduous was to break into this system.
This woman didn't seem like having any difficulties at all. It was as if her godly act was the usual eating and drinking.
"So, it's already prov. Th, do you know who's behind this?" Su Ruomei asked in expectation. Probably with hackers helping on their side, the investigation would be easier, wouldn't it? "And have you notified that to the police?"
"There's definitely some lead but she's still investigating," Ling Qingyu replied. "And I hav't informed the police yet. Nor have they come to inquire because I just woke up this morning."
"I see. So, we stay here the rest of the time?"
Ling Qingyu didn't answer but nodded her head in agreemt and she requested Zhao Xiurong who was looking at her. "Sister Zhao, please take care of my company during my absce. Don't worry about worsing crisis; as long as the employees didn't panic, I can handle the rest. About the shareholders, just me about them."
Zhao Xiurong nodded her head and Ling Qingyu told the three wom to give her some privacy wh she talked with two unknown yet capable wom.
All of them moved near the trance and discussed the situation while Tang Ziyi and Xiao Yue after seeing clearance a Ling Qingyu, came over.
"Now that you have your protection, we can start some on-site investigation," Tang Ziyi said while Xiao Yue's reaction also approved of this plan. "Although I didn't discover the real planner, I found the idtities of the group responsible for the action."
"Good! Who're they?" Ling Qingyu's face brighted.
"Related underg gangs operating in this province, presumably connected with some officials too to dare to act like this." Tang Ziyi added her opinions.
"By also tering their region, we can also try to find more who's behind the sce," Xiao Yue stated the real purpose.
"So, what's your plan?" Tang Ziyi asked.
After a momt of contemplation, Ling Qingyu replied. "I don't care about my real emy for now. Since they had done so, they obviously had thought of possible tracing and eliminated those risks before we ev acted."
"Sister Tang, I want to ask about your abilities. Can you eliminate this part of the gangs without revealing ourselves with your expertise?"
Tang Ziyi said nothing but nodded imperceptibly, making Ling Qingyu relieved. "A gtleman will wait years for revge. But I don't want to wait. Not to mtion I am a woman. I want Sister Tang to punish these culprits responsible for the assassination."
Xiao Yue cut in: "Have you thought about the consequces after doing this? I'm not worried about yours but your employees in the company, who're vulnerable to attacks."
Ling Qingyu paused for a momt. "Yep, this had to be the best method. The only way is to eliminate them completely. Whether I do this or not, my employees still have to face these threats. Uprooting it will be the only way now that you mtion this."
Xiao Yue said nothing but her eyes showed a hint of approval. Perhaps before Ling Qingyu only planned to act on the real culprit. However, no matter what treating these desperadoes in a gtlemanly fashion, Ling Qingyu's group could suffer losses ev if there wer't proof. A preemptive strike was the solution here.
Since this was to be the case, Ling Qingyu decided to be ruthless. Eliminating these gangs was also contributing to the peace of the community. Wh no one solved these issues, let her be the first to do so. As for the hidd boss, someday she would...Oh…she would never forget to avge this body's original owner.
"Do you want to kill them all? I mean that could make a lot of mess in the public. And you might attract the governmt's atttion." Tang Ziyi expressed concerns.
"Nope, just kill those who were really responsible and try to snitch out the news from them before you kill them." Ling Qingyu's eyes were cold as she spoke. "As for the rest, since no one is a good person, abolish them from harming society."
Xiao Yue liked this idea and looked at Tang Ziyi because it was her specialty. Tang Ziyi already knew the mission and its requiremts. She packed all her things and wt out followed by Xiao Yue after the two gestured at Ling Qingyu.
[A/N: I'm still conflicted about changing my book title because I noticed it appears too long. I don't know...I'm confused.
Shorting seems a better choice. Sigh...
