Zheng Mengwei said word by word.
The outside world had yet to suspect that the red diamond in her hand was fake. At least half of the people believed her and thought that the red diamond in her hand was the real one.
However, as long as the red diamond was in Lu Wenhuiâs hands, she would be exposed sooner or later. She would then become the target of public criticism.
At that time, it would affect her and the Zheng familyâs reputation.
She was overwrought. Now that she had finally found a breakthrough, she immediately asked for an exorbitant price.
Qiao Weiyang knew what she was up to.
She asked, âZheng Mengwei, donât you have a red diamond? My Aunt Wenhui said she got one, but the outside world says that itâs fake.â
âYes, I do. But this canât stop me from taking more. I have to compare them to know if mine is real. Besides, if Lu Wenhui takes her fake and turns it into a genuine red diamond, wonât I be at a disadvantage?â
No matter how many excuses Zheng Mengwei found for her actions, she could not hide the fact that the red diamond she was holding was fake.
Qiao Weiyang understood this too well. If it werenât for the fact that Aunt Wenhui wasnât willing to argue about this matter and bring up the past, Zheng Mengwei would have been exposed long ago.
Zheng Mengwei said, âQiao Weiyang, donât tell me you wonât even give me a fake red diamond? Is Jingyunâs life so worthless in your heart?â
Qiao Weiyang gripped her cell phone tightly and asked, âWill you dare to say these words to Grandma Han and Su Zhuoqian?â
Zheng Mengwei laughed loudly. âYes, Iâm indeed too embarrassed to say these things in front of them, so I can only say them in front of you. However, this is also something you can make a decision on. Itâs useless to tell them, right?â âOther than the red diamond, feel free to ask me for anything else.â
âItâs a pity that I donât want anything else except the red diamond,â Zheng Mengwei said. âOtherwise, Iâd better ask Grandma Han and Su Zhuoqian. What do you think?â
She was not afraid of looking for them. She could pretend to be pitiful and tell them about her difficulties. She would use Lin Xiao as a tool to take credit. She was not afraid that they would not agree.
However, she had to look for Qiao Weiyang first to anger her. It could be considered as taking revenge for what Qiao Weiyang had done to her previously.
âGive me some time to think about it.â Qiao Weiyang hung up.
Since Zheng Mengwei knew Lin Xiaoâs whereabouts, she had to bring her back sooner or later in order to please the Su family.
Qiao Weiyang was not afraid of her causing trouble.
However, the earlier Jingyunâs condition was treated, the better. Zheng Mengwei could find any excuse to delay it, but Qiao Weiyang could not.
She closed her eyes, but she couldnât make up her mind.
The red diamond was the most important thing to Aunt Wenhui, and it also involved the lasting bond between her and her best friend, Zhou Ping. Zhou Ping had bought the red diamond previously, and Aunt Wenhui could not even bear to cut it. She just wanted to keep it well.
It would not be a good idea for Qiao Weiayng to ask Aunt Wenhui for the red diamond.
Five minutes later, Qiao Weiyang called Zheng Mengwei back.
Zheng Mengwei looked at the number on her phone and smiled proudly.
She picked it up, and Qiao Weiyangâs voice sounded clearly on the other end.
âZheng Mengwei, do you remember the time we raced against each other?â Qiao Weiyang asked.
âI remember. So what?â This was also one of the humiliations Qiao Weiyang had brought to Zheng Mengwei. How could Zheng Mengwei forget?
She would remember these things no matter what. She had to take revenge for all the humiliation Qiao Weiyang had brought her!
âItâs good that you remember. Do you still remember that after you lost the bet, you had to promise me something? At that time, you agreed that no matter what it was, as long as I made the request, you would fulfill it?â Qiao Weiyang asked.
Zheng Mengweiâs body trembled as she recalled that event.
At that time, she lost and Qiao Weiyang didnât make any requests at the event location. Zheng Mengwei had almost forgotten about this.
When Qiao Weiyang brought up the past, Zheng Mengwei knew that something was wrong. When she made the promise to Qiao Weiyang, many young masters and daughters of prestigious families in Jingdu City were present to witness that scene.
She was also someone who cared about her reputation. Or rather, she could be as shameless as she wanted in private. However, she had to protect the Zheng familyâs reputation in public.
Zheng Mengwei didnât say anything. Qiao Weiyang continued, âThen Iâll make my request now. Zheng Mengwei, I want you to bring Jingyunâs biological mother back as soon as possible. Come straight to the hospital and help Jingyun undergo surgery as soon as possible. Of course, you can choose not to do it. Tell me the information you found and Iâll go look for her. This is still considered as fulfilling your promise to me. If you canât do that either⦠then you know the consequences.â
In the last few words, Qiao Weiyangâs voice was cold. It was not even a threat, but it was terrifying.
Zheng Mengwei gripped her cell phone so tightly that her fingers tightened. Her heart was trembling! Her ears were buzzing.
Qiao Weiyang was too much! She was really too much!
She had made the promise in public. If she couldnât make good on her word, wouldnât she be slapping herself in front of everyone? Those who had participated in the race at that time would publicize the fact that she hadnât kept her promise!
Qiao Weiyang really knew how to seize the opportunity!
Zheng Mengwei gritted her teeth. âQiao Weiyang, you win!â
âMiss Zheng, I canât compare to you at all. So, clues, address, and the birth motherâs name?â Qiao Weiyang asked coldly.
Zheng Mengwei weighed the pros and cons. If she wanted to survive in Jingdu City in the future, she had to agree to Qiao Weiyangâs request.
She was very unhappy to be forced like this.
She said, âI wonât tell you. Iâll call Zhuoqian directly and tell him.â
âIn that case, I want to hear the news from Zhuoqian in ten minutes.â Qiao Weiyang did not give Zheng Mengwei too much time.
Zheng Mengwei originally planned to look for Han Qingwan after provoking Qiao Weiyang.
The elderly were always soft-hearted. Moreover, in the eyes of outsiders, the authenticity of Lu Wenhuiâs red diamond was still uncertain. If she asked for it, Han Qingwan would definitely pressure Qiao Weiyang to give it to her.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Weiyang brought up the past, causing Zheng Mengwei to have no choice but to agree. She could not complain to Han Qingwan anymore.
Qiao Weiyang had effectively ruined her plan.
After Zheng Mengwei put down the phone, she asked the bodyguard beside her, âWhereâs Lin Xiao?â
âIâve gotten someone to keep an eye on her. Sheâs definitely fine.â The bodyguard was full of himself.
âBring her over.â Zheng Mengwei would only sell her to Su Zhuoqian and not
Qiao Weiyang. Lin Xiao would only be handed to Su Zhuoqian.
The bodyguard immediately went to get her.
Two minutes later, the bodyguard returned in a hurry, but Lin Xiao was nowhere to be seen.. âMiss, bad newsâ¦ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
