Chapter 204: Find a scapegoat
Chapter 204: Find a scapegoat
On the way back to Lishuiju, Qiao Chuchu yawned twice.
"Husband, you told me last time that you guys had a business exchange meeting recently, was it a dinner party?"
Huo Yunzheng hummed, "It will be held at the Imperial City next Tuesday night. What's wrong? Didn't you say you didn't want to attend?"
Qiao Chuchu remembered the call she received during the day. It was from Liang Ziyue, who said that a business event would be held soon and she wanted to participate, taking the opportunity to meet some business people, expand her network, and facilitate subsequent interviews.
However, she didn't have an invitation, so she asked Qiao Chuchu if she could take her in.
"Ziyue wants to participate. How about this? I'll go with you on Tuesday night and bring Ziyue in. Anyway, I'll just be accompanying you, sitting there eating and drinking, and having fun."
Huo Yunzheng drove the car and said ok.
Qiao Chuchu felt that this matter was harmless. Liang Ziyue wanted to get to know more people, and this opportunity just happened to be a piece of cake.
It just so happened that she went over to see if there were any clothing tycoons and learn how they did business.
"Will you still follow the live broadcast activities in the future? It's bad for your health. Be good and hire a few more people to do it." Huo Yunzheng felt sorry for his wife. He had enough money and could support her.
Qiao Chuchu disagreed. "It's just the beginning, so it will definitely be a bit hard. Xu Ke was afraid that I would be too tired, so he took on most of the work. I'm mainly so sleepy because I didn't sleep well last night. Don't worry."
Qiao Chuchu has a stubborn nature. She either won't do it or she will try her best to do it once she starts.
It's not that she necessarily seeks success, she just wants to avoid regret and remorse.
Huo Yunzheng had no way to deal with her. He couldn't stop his wife from doing what she wanted to do. He could only support her.
……
On Tuesday night, Qiao Chuchu wore a light blue dress and entered the venue holding Huo Yunzheng's arm.
Because there was no invitation, Liang Ziyue followed her and attended the event as a friend of Mrs. Huo.
Inside the venue, there were clinking glasses and bright lights.
Qiao Chuchu sat on the sofa to rest, Liang Ziyue sat beside her with a smile on her face.
"Chu Chu, thank you. There are so many people here tonight. I will take the initiative to introduce myself later. Maybe I will have the opportunity to cooperate with them in the future. You don't know how difficult it is to get in touch with these business tycoons. They rarely accept interviews from unofficial media."
Liang Ziyue said this, showing off her own difficulties in front of Qiao Chuchu.
His eyes fell on the glass she was holding.
Huo Jiayuan gave her a miscarriage medicine. If she was alone with Qiao Chuchu and gave her the medicine, she would definitely get into trouble.
Even if she succeeded, she was doomed.
That's why Liang Ziyue came up with this idea. It would be difficult to investigate in such a crowded place.
However, Liang Ziyue was still a little worried. There were surveillance devices in the banquet hall. Even if Qiao Chuchu herself was not paying attention, she couldn't put something in her cup so openly.
Liang Ziyue was a little hesitant. She had not met Qiao Chuchu very often during this period. Tonight's opportunity was perfect and she didn't want to miss it, but she was afraid in her heart.
"Chu Chu, who is that woman?" Liang Ziyue suddenly looked at someone and asked.
Qiao Chuchu looked up when she heard the voice and followed her gaze. "It seems to be a partner of Yun Zheng. His last name is... oh, Wen."
Qiao Chuchu didn't take it seriously and lowered her head to fiddle with her phone.
Liang Ziyue's lips curled up. Qiao Chuchu was a carefree person. She didn't care, but she saw it clearly.
She dared to swear that the woman named Wen in the red dress definitely had feelings for Huo Yunzheng.
Although they were chatting together, the woman's eyes never left Huo Yunzheng.
Liang Ziyue once admired and liked Huo Yunzheng and wanted to have a man like him.
So she was very familiar with the posture displayed by the woman.
As if a flash of inspiration had occurred to her, Liang Ziyue came up with a perfect plan.
She drugged Qiao Chuchu herself, and no matter whether it was a crowded and noisy environment or not, it might be traced back to her in the end.
Therefore, she must be absolutely sure to get out of this situation safely.
The key is to find a scapegoat.
Halfway through the banquet, Huo Yunzheng greeted and chatted with several important seniors. He was afraid that Qiao Chuchu was not feeling well, so he took his wife home first.
There are no important activities after that. It is important to spend time with my wife.
Liang Ziyue stayed on the pretext of making connections.
Without Qiao Chuchu's knowledge, Liang Ziyue walked up to Wen Zhi with a wine glass.
"Hello, Miss Wen."
Looking at the unfamiliar face that appeared, Wen Zhi was stunned for a moment, smiled slightly, and said hello.
"It's a bit stuffy in the banquet hall. I wonder if it's convenient for Miss Wen to go outside and chat under the vine trellis?"
Wen Zhi was a little confused. She was sure that she had never seen this woman before.
It’s our first meeting, what can we talk about?
"My last name is Liang, and I'm a good friend of Mrs. Huo. I think Miss Wen and I should have a lot to talk about."
Mrs. Huo's friend?
That Jing Xi?
Although Wen Zhi had no idea what this woman was trying to say, she decided to go out and listen to what she was going to do.
"Since she is Miss Jing's friend, do you want to tell me about her?"
There was no one else under the vine trellis, so Wen Zhi went straight to the point and asked the man why he came.
Liang Ziyue laughed, "Miss Wen prefers Mr. Huo, I am right."
Wen Zhi's eyes gradually became sharper, "What do you want to do?"
Liang Ziyue turned her head and glanced ahead, then said in a long voice: "If I tell you, can I help you?"
"Huo Yunzheng is deeply in love with his wife. If this could be done so easily, I would have done it long ago. Why wait until now? Miss, your words are really not convincing at all."
Wen Zhi was somewhat suspicious of this person and became more wary.
Liang Ziyue didn't care. "Miss Wen, why don't you change your mindset? What if Jingxi insists on leaving Huo Yunzheng?"
"What do you mean?"
Liang Ziyue's eyes revealed a shrewd and experienced look, "There is nothing in this world that cannot be accomplished. It depends on whether you can be ruthless and willing to take it all out, Miss Wen."
Wen Zhi frowned and stared at the person in front of her, "Tell me about it."
Liang Ziyue lowered her eyes and told her the idea she had just come up with.
Under the night sky, Wen Zhi's expression kept changing.
After Liang Ziyue finished speaking, Wen Zhi looked at her cautiously and asked, "Why are you helping me? Did Jingxi offend you? Aren't you good friends?"
Liang Ziyue smiled and said, "How can people of unequal status be friends? Miss Wen just needs to know that I, like you, hope that she disappears from this world and that she lives a miserable life. That's enough."
"I know Miss Wen doesn't trust me, so I'll give you some time to think about it. If you've made up your mind, feel free to contact me. I'm looking forward to working with Miss Wen."
