Chapter 139: Chapter 132: Capture Her
Zhu Tingting had made up her mind—she wouldn't let Qiao Jing off easily.
Zhan Nanging furrowed her brows, although Qiao Jing’s troubles had little to do with her, she still hoped to
collaborate with Qiao Jing to deal with Lan Yinyin.
Moreover, compared to Qiao Jing, Zhan Nanging disliked Zhu Tingting even more.
Indeed, it had been Qiao Jing who threw the first punch, putting her in the wrong.
As Zhan Nanging thought this, Captain Zhao looked at Zhu Tingting and asked, “Why did she hit you?”
“She's sick!” Zhu Tingting blurted out angrily.
“Oh, you mean she is mentally ill. In that case, she has no criminal liability for hitting you,” Captain Zhao stated
with a face full of righteousness, which was certainly unexpected.
Anyone could see that Captain Zhao was deliberately speaking up for Qiao Jing in the current situation.
“I will deal with her issue later. Now we need to address your false reporting of the incident. According to our
empire’s laws, those who falsely report incidents face detention of no less than five and no more than ten days.
You will cwith us now and be released after ten days.”
Captain Zhao clearly remembered Zhu Tingting cursing Qiao Jing right in front of him, calling her “cheap”
repeatedly. One could only imagine how much worse the insults must have been before he arrived, how else
could someone like Qiao Jing be provoked to physical action?
“1, 1 didn’t falsely report anything, | didn’t, please don’t arrest me!” Zhu Tingting screamed, turning to run.
Good run! Captain Zhao silently exclaimed.
“Arrest her!”
Without her running, he would have had no reason to use force.
Zhu Tingting hadn’t even made it out of the store entrance when she was pinned to the ground, hands pulled
behind her back.
“Don’t move!”
Zhu Tingting knelt on the ground, her face pressed against the floor, her arms painfully twisted behind her,
grimacing in a most disgraceful state.
The crowd around her grew, pointing and murmuring at Zhu Tingting.
This scene reminded her of the twhen Qi Pei had her thrown out of the Zhan Corporation.
Back then, her clothes were in disarray, barely covering what they were supposed to, so her near entirety was
exposed after being thrown out.
She lay on the ground, surrounded by people who, just like now, discussed and pointed at her.

Had it not been for that, she, Miss Zhu from a prestigious family, born into wealth, would never have ended up
marrying an old man.
Qi Pei! And Qiao Jing! You all wait, she thought, the humiliation of today, she would surely pay them back double!
Zhan Nanging watched as Zhu Tingting was taken away, blinked her eyes, and then shifted her gaze to Qiao Jing.
“Captain Zhao seems to be very close to you? He actually defended you in front of so many people?”
“You're wrong, he’s not helping me, he’s enforcing the law fairly,” Qiao Jing said as she picked up the diamond
necklace she had just bought and walked out.
“Enforcing the law fairly? You hit someone, okay? And yet you got off without any trouble,” Zhan Nanging caught
up to Qiao Jing and said.
“She broke the law first,” Qiao Jing said firmly.
She wasn’t wrong in her statement; as an agricultural scientist, she was part of the national team. Insulting
someone from the national team was legally actionable.
Captain Zhao did not cover for her because of her status; he truly administered the law impartially.
Of course, Qiao Jing did not explain this to Zhan Nanqging.
Zhan Nanging went to the hospital that evening to visit Zhan Yuanshan.
She said she was visiting, but actually, she had something she wanted to ask Zhan Yuanshan.
“Grandpa, how much money did you really give Qiao Jing?”
She just handed over thirty million, and the purchases were even gifts for others. Envy and jealousy indeed!
“Money? | did give some, but Jing Girl didn’t take it.”
As for Zhan Yuanshan’s words, Zhan Nanging didn’t believe a single one.
“Grandpa, stop lying to me. Yesterday | saw with my own eyes Qiao Jing spending thirty million in one go, and
I've followed her before. She also went to donate at the Red Cross Society. The staff there toldshe comes to
donate almost every month. Isn't it you who asked her to donate on your behalf?”
“What? That girl is donating to the Red Cross Society every month?” Zhan Yuanshan suddenly raised his head to
look at Zhan Nanqing, his eyes full of surprise.
Zhan Yuanshan’s reaction was completely unexpected to Zhan Nanqging; by the looks of it, he wasn’t pretending?
Could it be that Grandpa really didn’t know about Qiao Jing’s donations? That can’t be, right?
If her grandpa didn’t know, where would Qiao Jing get the money to donate every month? The thing is, she asked
the Red Cross Society staff, and each tQiao Jing donated, it wasn’t a small amount.
Zhan Nanging continued to stare at Zhan Yuanshan with a skeptical and probing look, trying to find any slightest
hint of lying on his face.
“Hahaha—" Zhan Yuanshan suddenly burst out laughing.
“Truly a good child in my eyes! She seems standoffish and hard to get along with, but actually has a warm heart.
| thought | knew her well, but I didn’t expect her to be this kind, donating to the Red Cross Society every month.
What a good granddaughter-in-law, good granddaughter-in-law! Hahaha—"
Zhan Yuanshan laughed heartily, his laughter genuine and without any pretense.
This made Zhan Nanging even more shocked; so the money Qiao Jing donated to the Red Cross Society really
wasn’t from her grandpa.
Then the question arises, where did Qiao Jing get so much money from?
From her two acres of land in the countryside? From money earned treating illness and saving people? Or from
the salary provided by Professor Qiao’s Research Institute?
No matter which it was, it probably wasn’t enough to amount to so much money, right?
“Grandpa, stop laughing for a second. Don’t you find it strange? Qiao Jing’s background is out there, and without
a strong family support, where does she get so much money from? It can’t be by selling herself—"
Zhan Nanging hadn't finished her sentence when she was stared down by Zhan Yuanshan’s sharp eyes.
Zhan Yuanshan, now residing in the hospital due to illness, was once a military commander charging into battles
on the battlefield. His presence alone was formidable, hardly anyone could stand against it.
Facing such terrifying eyes from Zhan Yuanshan, Zhan Nanging’s heart nearly stopped beating.
“Zhan Nanging!” Zhan Yuanshan called out her ncoldly.
Zhan Nanging froze on the spot, standing still as she looked at Zhan Yuanshan, with a look of fear in her eyes.
“Randomly insulting and slandering
others is not the style of our Zhan
Family! You can Nb TE must
"pedo know what you were
about to say, which was that Jing Girl
having so much money might be
from selling herself for it. | ask you,

Zhan Nanging pursed her lips.

“Speak up!” Zhan Yuanshan raised his voice and shouted.
Zhan Nanging shivered with fear, “I, | have no evidence. |, I, | know | was wrong.”
“Hmph!” Zhan Yuanshan snorted,
“Putting aside where Jing Girl's
money comes from, I'll just = are
thing. Jing Gi has Hvkays been

efforts, not on others, to build what
she has now. And you? Aside from

Zhan Nanging bowed her head low; indeed, she had never earned money.
“I've long seen it—you and your
mother look down on Jing Girl for

unskilled. But lettell you, the two
of you together multiplied by 100
aren't even equal to one Jing Girl!"
