Free Web NovelChapter 911: Chapter 659: The Storm Breaks—Only the Strong Endure
As soon as they heard this lineup, anyone could sense that the current police chief was indeed setting fire to the place as a new official in charge—aggressively so!
In the end, only the Rong Family, Ding Jiashi, Ma Qijun, and Yin Shiqing’s family were left in the hall.
Ding Jiashi stayed because he was Rong Qiao’s boyfriend. With things developing to this extent, Ding Jiashi did not think highly of the Rong Family.
From the beginning of this birthday banquet, from Rong Qiao to Rong Jing, to Rong Si, and even Mrs. Rong...
The human flaws revealed in their words after the conflict made Ding Jiashi deeply feel that he knew too little about Rong Qiao and the Rong Family.
"Rong Qiao, Mr. Rong, I’ll visit again when there’s time. I don’t think it’s appropriate for me to be involved any further on this occasion." freewёbnoνel.com
Ding Jiashi thought for a moment, then politely said goodbye to them.
"Ding Jiashi!"
Rong Qiao’s currently fashionable single-line eyebrows knitted together, her face full of anxiety.
"Rong Qiao, when we have the opportunity, let’s talk about us."
The words were tactful, but Rong Qiao already heard the hidden meaning—he didn’t want to continue their relationship...
"Miss Rong, don’t be sad. Ding Jiashi is just a fair-weather friend. It’s better to realize this sooner rather than later, for your own good."
Ma Qijun hurriedly said.
No one could understand the complex emotions in Rong Qiao’s heart. This pampered young lady, who had grown up in an ivory tower under the care of Rong Si and Rong Jing, suddenly found that the tower had collapsed.
Her brother was taken away by the police, and her parents now looked gloomy and desolate.
"What exactly... is going on? Uncle Rong, how is it possible that Yin Shixiu didn’t die?"
Rong Si clenched his fists, glanced at Ma Qijun, and said,
"Boss Ma, what are you still doing here? Isn’t seeing the Rong Family’s joke big enough?"
"Ah? Mr. Rong, you, you misunderstood. I just stayed to see if there’s anything I can help with..."
Ma Qijun hastily explained.
"Boss Ma, you were originally a long-term partner of the Yin Family. You only turned to cooperate with us, the Rong Family, because Yin Shixiu was presumed dead. Now that Ying Shixiu has returned, will you still stand with the Rong Family?"
Businessmen are just like that, following the wind and putting on a show when it suits them.
Ma Qijun had betrayed the Yin Family, turning his back on them when they were in crisis. Naturally, Rong Si couldn’t possibly hope for him to help the Rong Family wholeheartedly in their time of need.
"Mr. Rong, look at what you’re saying, I naturally—"
"Go back. There’s no need for pleasantries, Boss Ma."
Ma Qijun’s face instantly turned red, feeling extremely embarrassed.
From Rong Si’s words, it was clear he didn’t trust him. Probably, they had things to discuss with Yin Shiqing, and his presence was in the way.
"Mr. Rong, don’t think of me as too opportunistic. Although I’m a businessman, I wouldn’t add insult to injury unless absolutely necessary. If there’s anything I can do, just let me know."
"Today, I’ll take my leave first."
After Ma Qijun finished speaking, he left the scene without hesitation.
The Rong Family and the Yin Family gathered together. Naturally, they wouldn’t discuss matters in the banquet hall, so they moved to a suite in the hotel.
Rong Si explained as clearly as possible the situation of Yin Shixiu appearing in the banquet hall.
Yin Shiqing’s face turned from pale to red as he listened.
Yin Bowen and Shi Haiyan, standing by, were practically restless.
"What should we do? Uncle is still alive, what should we do... we’re doomed..."
Yin Bowen muttered to himself, unable to hide the panic in his heart.
Upon hearing this, Yin Shiqing’s anger rose, and he glared fiercely at Yin Bowen,
"What are you afraid of!"
"Dad, that’s uncle... If he finds out how we treated grandpa, grandma, and Little Aunt before..."
"How did I end up with such a cowardly son! In the past, I never thought you were so useless! These past two years, you’ve become more and more worthless! Shi Haiyan, is his habit of enjoying nothing but pleasure and being good for nothing, inherited from your family?"
Yin Shiqing’s words were barbed.
Shi Haiyan pursed her lips tightly, not daring to say a word.
She knew that her husband now saw the Shi Family as a burden, fearing they would drag him down. Previously, her brother Shi Shengde had gotten himself into trouble by impulsively acting without his consent.
Yin Bowen had also caused trouble in recent years due to Zhu Lan and Guo Tong’s affairs.
