Chapter 953: Chapter 926: Closing the Net
Wang Haiqun, the CEO of Haiqun Group, has been very troubled lately.
It seems like the bad luck started after his son’s marriage fell through.
After that detestable female psychiatrist revealed his son’s sexual orientation, the woman who was supposed to marry his son teamed up with Yu Mingli against him. In business, he suffered continuous defeats, coupled with his son’s difficult personal issues. Wang Haiqun felt that just as he was nearing retirement, he had been dragged into a mess.
In his view, all of this was triggered by that detestable Chen Xiaoqian.
Because of Chen Xiaoqian’s meddling, the two families who were supposed to become in-laws turned against each other, allowing the crooked businessman Yu Mingli to benefit.
But Chen Xiaoqian is too cunning. Even the international hypnotist he hired for a hefty sum couldn’t have any effect, and now not only has he failed to topple Chen Xiaoqian, but he’s dragged the Shi Family’s pharmaceutical business into the mix.
Who could have imagined that the struggling pharmaceutical factory would suddenly come back to life?
The business world changes rapidly, and no one can predict what will happen in the next moment.
These days, Wang Haiqun has been too troubled by business matters to spare a thought for plotting against Qian — to be precise, he has no opportunity to make a move against her.
On this day, he had just finished a social event and was leaving the hotel, already close to midnight.
He looked around with slight drunkenness, dissatisfied, wondering where the driver had gone?
Annoying, he must deduct the driver’s salary when he returns!
Just as Wang Haiqun was thinking this, his car finally pulled up.
"Did I not tell you to wait at the door — huh, where’s Liu?" Wang Haiqun noticed the driver had changed. Although it was still his car, the driver had been replaced by a young man he didn’t recognize.
"Boss, I’m new. Mr Liu had an upset stomach, so I came instead." The driver lowered his eyes.
Wang Haiqun was already intoxicated and didn’t suspect anything since it was his own car. He didn’t call to confirm the change and got in directly.
The alcohol made him rest in the back seat, and after the car had been driving for a while, he opened his eyes, wondering why today’s journey seemed so long. Something wasn’t right!
Realizing that the scenery outside the window was different, Wang Haiqun’s consciousness instantly sobered up.
"Where are you taking me? This isn’t the way home!"
He tried to pull the car door but found he couldn’t move it.
He usually brought bodyguards, but today he hadn’t, and his secretary had left early. He hadn’t expected to encounter such a situation!
The driver turned his head, smiling slightly, then suddenly took out a spray from his pocket and quickly sprayed it at Wang Haiqun’s face, watching him pass out before dialing a number.
"The cargo has arrived."
...
Four hours later, Wang Haiqun found himself lying in the car, which was parked at the entrance of his villa, and the driver was already gone.
He rubbed his temples in confusion; he only remembered getting into the car after the social event and couldn’t recall anything that happened afterward.
He vaguely remembered having some kind of nightmare, but couldn’t recall the details.
"To dump me in the car, damn driver, I must deduct his salary..." Wang Haiqun said as he got out of the car, trying to remember what nightmare he had, oh, it came to him.
He seemed to have watched some kind of video, then got scared and, in the dream, wrote a letter that reported all the shady things he had done over the years, including incriminating his longtime cashier and even stamping it with his fingerprint.
Haha, how could he have such a stupid dream? Such idiotic behavior, akin to suicide, how could he ever engage in it?
Wang Haiqun shook his head, dismissing it as just a dream, nothing worth mentioning.
He should instead think about how to get back at Qian, hire some people to beat Chen Xiaoqian, ruin her face, or take indecent pictures of her?
If scandalous photos of Yu’s youngest daughter-in-law get exposed, Yu Mingli will surely be too busy cleaning up his brother’s mess to bother him, right?
Just the thought of it was satisfying enough, and Wang Haiqun confidently opened the door to his house, striding in unaware that tonight might be the last peaceful night he ever had. Tomorrow the sun will still rise, but his life will never have the chance to turn around.
At the airport, Qian was wearing sunglasses and holding several manila envelopes. The people she had arranged for were in front of her, and Qian handed them the envelopes one by one.
"Deliver these to the major mainstream newspapers and radio stations overnight. Make sure they reach their destinations before tomorrow morning."
"Yes!" They were all people Yu Mingli had found, highly efficient.
What Qian was giving them were copies. As for the originals she held close, she would personally fly back to Q City and hand them to her brother, ensuring some people would never make a comeback.
On the flight back, Qian thought about the information she had extracted during the implant hypnosis session with a certain person, and couldn’t help but chuckle coldly.
Want to take indecent photos of her? Haha, they must survive prison first to even consider that.
The contents in her possession would keep him in prison for a long time.
In a world where the strong prey on the weak, it’s either you die or I perish. The sky outside the airplane window was pitch black; Qian casually placed the envelope from her arms aside.
She closed her eyes, recalling everything that had happened, lacking the satisfaction of vengeance but feeling calm, with a hint of uncertainty.
To carry out the retaliation smoothly was due to the alignment of time, place, and people.
The sheepskin book clearly stated that a hundred percent success wasn’t possible with the implant hypnosis technique; it only succeeds when the target has a weakened consciousness, and even then, success isn’t particularly high.
She used drugs on him and coupled with Wang Haiqun being despondent from her brother’s attacks and drunk that night, Qian seized the chance. The key to success was Shi Yu teaming up with her and sending someone to trick Wang Haiqun, with Bai Jin recording the video. Wang Haiqun was scared to his bones after watching it, allowing Qian the chance to strike — that was timing.
The resources she utilized were all top-tier experts arranged by her brother, a battle where equal opponents held sway, with success contingent on who possessed the evidence — that was location.
Her sole task was to compel Wang Haiqun to write about his past deeds, accurately and truthfully, akin to a confession, without exaggeration or falsehood, entirely truthful. Once verified, this document would stand, proving Wang Haiqun guilty of economic crimes beyond doubt.
As for people...
At this thought, Qian felt somewhat indescribable.
The technique she used wasn’t taught by her teacher; it all came from that sheepskin book.
Without that book, given her current skills, she wouldn’t have managed such a smooth execution. She might have been able to hypnotize Wang Haiqun but not make him so thoroughly subjected.
Xiaoqiang said that this never-disclosed implant hypnosis is a form of "Sorcery," yet it represents an unknown doorway.
Qio Yu Xuan serves as the gatekeeper, barring any who wish to glimpse its secrets. Behind that door lie treasures; previously Qian could boast she didn’t want or need them.
But once she felt the mysterious treasure’s mighty power and realized she might face more top-level masters like Mu Hualili, her previous resistance began to waver.
