Chapter 1839: As Long As All Was True
Ji Ziming pursed his lips and smiled. His eyes turned colder as he looked at Old master Qu. “If you still think that I’m coveting your Qu family’s assets, then you can really be at ease. I only care about one thing. No matter how much you protect the thing I want, it’s useless. It will only make the thing you care about run to me.”
Old master Qu thought as he looked at Ji Ziming.
Everyone said that the Ji Ziming in the capital was the most emotionless person in the world. Yet now, he was worrying about his family matters as though he was originally a member of the Qu family. However, Old master Qu did not know that Ji Ziming did this because of Pei Ge’s words.
“You said that my wife wanted to kill me. Do you have evidence?”
Old master Qu frowned and sounded anxious. “If you show me your evidence, I will believe you and watch out for what my wife will do to me.”
“There’s no need for evidence. You just need to recall if your company’s accounts are real or not and see if Qu Group is about to become an empty shell company. As for other matters, if you really want to hear them, I can give you evidence as long as you’re willing to listen.”
Old master Qu’s heart skipped a beat when Ji Ziming mentioned Qu Group. Before he was hospitalized, the day Qu Xiujie came to know about Old master Qu, Old master Qu was investigating the company’s accounts.
He always felt that something was wrong but he could not put his finger on it. However, Old master Qu knew that there was something fishy with the company’s accounts. The company’s accounts were all passed by Old lady Qu but Old master Qu did not know what she was up to.
“Are you sure?”
Old master Qu looked at Ji Ziming and asked even though he was already suspicious.
“I’m very sure. Other than some of your company’s work, I’m afraid it’s not suitable for you to accept anything else.”
Ji Ziming looked at Old master Qu and knew how much Old lady Qu’s position was in this man’s heart. He also knew how much Old lady Qu’s existence had brought him in the past.
For a successful man, the women around him must have their own reasons for being successful. Otherwise, how could there be so many perfect love in this world?
Love, especially in the business world, was built on a bottom line.
“It seems like you guys already know all the secrets. Now that you’re telling me this, I can’t accept it. Isn’t it too fake? Since you’ve already come to find me, it means that you want me to listen to you and be wary of my wife. But now that you’re saying this, I really don’t understand.”
“Old master Qu, you don’t have to say that. I think you should understand why I’m doing this. I know your temper. When your company was in trouble for the first time, you were unwilling to look for me even if you had to support yourself. I already know your character. Although I’ve worked with you for so many years and only look at people in terms of business interests, I really understand what’s most important in your heart this time.”
“In this old man’s heart, isn’t money the most important thing? For the sake of money, he doesn’t even want his own daughter. What’s there to feel sorry for? Mr Ji, don’t waste any more time. If he really dies, what does it have to do with you? It has nothing to do with your hospital. Don’t stay here and be a good person. Won’t it be useless?”
Qu Xiujie had a look of reluctance. As long as he saw Old master Qu’s cold face, he thought of the past and could not wait to walk in front of Old master Qu and pull his collar to ask if he was human. However, his thoughts had destroyed all possibilities.
“Such a person is only left for God to deal with.”
Qu Xiujie looked at Old master Qu with hatred in his eyes.
“Mr. Qu, if you think like this now, you might not think like this in the future.”
Ji Ziming knew very well that in Qu Xiujie’s heart, Old master Qu’s safety was especially precious and even more precious than his own. Hence, it was impossible for him to have the thought of apologizing.
“Why wouldn’t I think so? This old man has done so many wrong things. Even if God doesn’t want to take him in, sooner or later, this world of justice will take him in.”
Qu Xiujie stood behind Ji Ziming and looked at Old master Qu with hatred.
“How can this world be righteous?”
Old master Qu said self-mockingly.
“Old master Qu, don’t worry. Mr. Qu is just too angry now. You are his father, so you should understand him. How can he really bear a grudge against someone? Moreover, whether this world is righteous depends on one’s heart. If you think it’s righteous, then it’s righteous. If you think it’s not, then it’s not righteous.”
Ji Ziming turned to look at Qu Xiujie and continued, “Justice is in one’s heart. You don’t have to be so clingy.”
“Mr Ji, I’m not pestering you. This kind of scum, what’s the point of keeping him in this world? Back then, he didn’t even care whether my mother was alive or dead outside, so why do you have to pretend to be a good person now? What right do you have to do this? What right?”
Qu Xiujie could not stand it anymore. When he saw Old master Qu recall what happened back then, he had so much hatred in his heart that he could not wait to see Old master Qu fainting on the ground. He decided to ignore him and there would not be so many things after that.
“I will always die, but I cannot die yet.”
For the first time, Old master Qu did not say that Qu Xiujie was in the wrong. Instead, he reflected deeply on himself. As long as he could still see his daughter who was exposed, Old master Qu felt that he still had the thought of surviving.
He just needed to know that she was doing well.
“Old master Qu, don’t worry. Mr. Qu’s sister is doing well now.”
Ji Ziming seemed to have seen through Old master Qu’s thoughts and said what he was most concerned about. Of course, Zhang Manhua was doing better than before.
“Really? You didn’t lie to me?”
Old master Qu was in disbelief. As long as all of this was true.
