Chapter 300: Tang An is arrested and commits suicide!
The more Shi Mubai trusted Tang An in the early stages, the more he now hates Tang An.
He wished he could kill Tang An!
It's all Tang An's fault!
If it weren't for Tang An, things wouldn't have turned out this way.
Shi Mubai was filled with hatred!
I hate it!
Tang An was completely stunned.
She didn't know where Shi Mubai found the evidence.
But she knew.
There are no security cameras in the study.
As long as she doesn't admit it, no one can pin the crime on her.
She absolutely cannot allow herself to be bullied.
"I didn't! I didn't!" Tang An cried as she looked at Shi Mubai. "Brother Mubai! Wake up! I really didn't steal the design draft. I'm your sister. In this world, you're my only family. How could I do something to hurt you?"
Shi Mubai's lips curled into a sarcastic smile.
Ha ha!
How ridiculous!
He used to regard Tang An as his only family in the world.
But what about Tang An?
But Tang An treated him this way.
No one knew how furious Shi Mubai was at that moment. He raised his hand and slapped Tang An across the face.
Snapped!
Tang An's face was slapped to the side, his eyes saw stars, and his mouth was covered in blood.
After slapping Tang An, Shi Mubai grabbed Tang An's hair and forced him to look at him. "Tell me! Why? Why did you betray me? Do you know how much I trusted you!"
Shi Mubai suddenly remembered the words that Old Madam Shi had said to him when he left the Shi family that day.
At that moment, Shi Mubai felt that every word spoken by Old Madam Shi was an insult to Tang An.
until now.
Shi Mubai then realized what was happening.
Every word Madam Shi spoke at that time came from the bottom of her heart.
How stupid!
He's so stupid!
Everyone around Tang An clearly saw through his true nature.
Unexpected.
He couldn't see clearly.
Thinking of this, Shi Mubai raised his hand and slapped himself.
Tang An deserves to die.
He deserves to die too!
She really deserves to die!
Tang An continued to deny it, "I didn't, I really didn't! Brother Mu Bai, have you been manipulated?"
"Don't call me brother, you don't deserve it! You don't deserve it!"
Tang An then looked at Qi Chengze beside her, "Brother Chengze, please say something for me! I really didn't steal the design draft."
Qi Chengze took out his phone. "If you didn't steal the design drafts, then who is this person on the surveillance footage?"
Tang An was completely stunned when he saw the monitoring page on his phone.
He stood frozen in place, his fingers gripping the floor so tightly that his knuckles had turned white from the force.
monitor!
Wasn't the security camera in the study broken?
How did they get their hands on the surveillance video?
At this moment, Tang An's eyes were filled with despair.
She thought she had done everything without anyone knowing.
But why.......
Why did things still get exposed?
Qi Chengze put away his phone and continued, "I've already had someone investigate your entire itinerary for that night. After you received the design draft, you left the villa and went to a coffee shop to meet Feng Xiwang."
At this point, Qi Chengze squatted down, bent over to look Tang An in the eye, and said, word by word, "Tang An, anyone can betray Mu Bai, but you can't. Do you know how much Mu Bai trusts you?"
Qi Chengze had never seen Shi Mubai trust someone so much.
Tang An is the first!
"Trust? What's trust? Trust's worth a few cents a pound!" Tang An suddenly changed his tune, throwing his head back and laughing loudly. "Shi Mubai, you say I'm your only sister, but have you really done that?"
"After being kicked out by that old hag from the Shi family, I was penniless. You didn't give me any cash, nor did you buy me any property. What kind of brother are you!"
"Hypocrites! You're all a bunch of hypocrites!"
Tang An now deeply regrets it.
She didn't regret stealing the design drawings.
She regretted not doing a good job of cleaning up the mess; she should have checked the study for surveillance cameras much earlier.
As she spoke, Tang An laughed even louder. She turned to look at Shi Mubai and said with heartbreaking pain, "Shi Mubai, you keep saying you treat me like your closest sister, but have you really done that? Ask yourself honestly, have you?"
"If you really considered me your sister, you wouldn't be so wary of me! You shouldn't have installed a camera in the study. Just because we're not related by blood, you're always on guard against me! It's intentional. You deliberately let me steal the design drafts, didn't you?"
"You say you're disappointed in me, but I'm truly disappointed in you!"
"Shi Mubai! You are not worthy to be my brother!"
"Also, it wasn't me who killed Aunt Liu, it was you who killed Aunt Liu. If you hadn't so easily suspected others, Aunt Liu wouldn't have died!"
"Shi Mubai! The person who deserves to die the most is actually you!"
"It's you!"
Tang An spoke each word with a sharp edge, each sentence seemingly carrying a knife.
This plunged Shi Mubai into endless self-blame!
Correct!
Tang An is right.
He killed Aunt Liu.
It's all him!
Beep beep--
Just then, police sirens sounded outside.
Then, a group of uniformed police officers filed in.
Tang An was soon arrested for stealing important trade secrets.
Shi Mubai and Qi Chengze also got into the police car.
the other side.
Zheng's Group.
Zheng Mingtao is extremely pleased with himself lately.
Ever since Zheng's Group officially announced the design drafts, the number of followers on their official Weibo account has been increasing rapidly.
With the continued high level of attention surrounding CL Jewelry's alleged plagiarism, the Jung Group is practically winning big!
Zheng Mingtao only needs to sit in his office and count his money.
Feng Xiwang stood to the side and respectfully handed over the tablet, "President Zheng, CL Jewelry has issued another new statement."
What's the latest statement?
Even if there's a new statement, so what?
Zheng Mingtao propped his legs up on the desk, striking a classic boss pose, and gave a slight smirk. "Ignore him, he's just a grasshopper in autumn."
Zheng Mingtao felt no remorse whatsoever for his experience with CL Jewelry.
So what if he won by underhanded means?
Markets are like battlefields.
There are countless shady methods.
Blame it on Shi Mubai and Qi Chengze for not having enough cultivation!
After saying that, Zheng Mingtao continued, "Manager Feng, your most important task now is to keep an eye on the production line and get them to increase output!"
The latest jewelry from the Zheng Group is so popular that pre-orders have already reached 100,000!
What they need to do now is increase production output.
Only in this way can one handle such immense wealth.
"Okay, Mr. Zheng, I understand."
Feng Xiwang wanted to say something more, but suddenly...
boom!
The office door was pushed open at that moment.
Then, Zheng Mingtao's secretary walked in from outside.
Feng Xiwang immediately frowned and began to scold, "Linda, is this your first day at work? Don't you know General Manager Zheng's rules?"
Linda also looked troubled. "Mr. Zheng, they want to come in, and I can't stop them."
As soon as she finished speaking, several uniformed police officers walked out from behind Linda.
The police officer at the front showed his badge and walked up to Feng Xiwang. "Feng Xiwang, right?"
"Yes, I am Feng Xiwang."
The police officer nodded. "We now suspect you are involved in a serious case of stealing trade secrets. Please come with us and cooperate with the investigation."
Zheng Mingtao was completely stunned. Just as he was about to ask what was going on, another police officer walked up to him and said, "You're Zheng Mingtao, the legal representative of the Zheng Group, right? You'll have to come with us too!"
Before Zheng Mingtao and Feng Xiwang could react, cold handcuffs were already on their wrists.
Zheng Mingtao quickly said, "Officer, are you sure you've got the right person? Our company operates legally! We never do anything illegal!"
"Rest assured, we, the people's police, will not wrong an innocent person, nor will we let a bad person go free!"
As the police pushed him out, Zheng Mingtao looked at Linda and said, "Contact Attorney Zhou, contact Attorney Zhou quickly!"
"Yes, Mr. Zheng!"
--
When Shi Mubai came out of the police station again, it was already evening.
He looked like a wilted eggplant, completely devoid of energy.
Qi Chengze stood next to Shi Mubai, unsure of what to say.
Just now.
Liu Yuanzhi also came out from the other side.
Having been detained for a day, and also because of the loss of his mother, Liu Yuanzhi didn't seem to have much energy. He didn't even have the strength to curse Shi Mubai when he saw him, and just walked past Shi Mubai.
"sorry."
Shi Mubai lowered his head and suddenly spoke.
sorry?
Upon hearing this, Liu Yuanzhi's lips curled into a sarcastic smile. "Sorry? You think you can get away with just one 'sorry'? Can 'sorry' bring my mother back to life?"
Shi Mubai kept his head down, unsure how to answer Liu Yuanzhi's question.
For a long time.
Shi Mubai finally realized what was happening and looked at Liu Yuanzhi, "I will take responsibility for this."
"Take responsibility? How can you take responsibility?" Liu Yuanzhi's eyes were bloodshot as he grabbed Shi Mubai's collar. "Do you know how tragically my mother died? She worked hard her whole life, but she didn't even leave behind a complete corpse!"
Shi Mubai was also in great pain, "I'll give you whatever amount of money you want!"
"I don't want money! I just want justice!" Liu Yuanzhi shoved Shi Mubai hard. "Unless you die! This isn't over!"
Shi Mubai stumbled and fell to the ground.
After uttering this harsh remark, Liu Yuanzhi turned and left.
Qi Chengze helped Shi Mubai up from the ground, sighed and said, "Don't think too much about it, I'll handle this for you."
Although Shi Mubai did something unforgivable.
In terms of public relations, they are partners.
Privately, they were very close friends.
At this time, he could not abandon Shi Mubai.
Shi Mubai was helped up by Qi Chengze and nodded, saying, "Okay, thank you for your trouble, Chengze."
“It’s alright, we’re brothers,” Qi Chengze continued, “I hope you can learn a lesson from this.”
"understood."
After returning to the villa, Shi Mubai ate a large bowl of noodles and then went upstairs to wash up.
After washing up, Shi Mubai changed into his pajamas and sat in the study to work on documents.
CL has gone through so many ups and downs and has a lot of things to deal with.
Qi Chengze sat next to Shi Mubai.
Seeing that Shi Mubai was in a good mood, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The two worked until the early hours of the morning before finally finishing their tasks.
Qi Chengze carried two buckets of instant noodles upstairs. "Mu Bai, I cooked two buckets of instant noodles. Do you want some?"
“Eat,” Shi Mubai nodded, “I’m hungry too.”
Qi Chengze handed Shi Mubai a bucket of instant noodles.
After taking a bite of instant noodles, Shi Mubai turned to Qi Chengze and asked, "Do you remember the last time we ate instant noodles together?"
“I remember.” Qi Chengze nodded. “Back then, CL Jewelry had just been established, and the two of us had to work overtime until two or three in the morning every day.”
Although it was tiring at that time.
But it was very fulfilling!
It's also wonderful.
I wanted to buy osmanthus flowers and share wine, but we are no longer like young people on a carefree journey!
Thinking back to that time, Shi Mubai smiled and said, "Time really flies! So many years have passed in the blink of an eye!"
Seeing that Shi Mubai was in relatively good condition, Qi Chengze breathed a sigh of relief and patted Shi Mubai's shoulder, "Mubai, don't think too much. After you finish your instant noodles, go back to your room and sleep. Tomorrow is a new day. I will definitely take care of Aunt Liu's situation for you."
"Okay, thank you for your help, Chengze."
After finishing his instant noodles, Shi Mubai returned to his room. He lay calmly on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, as many past events floated before his eyes.
Scene after scene.
Like watching a movie.
After an unknown amount of time, Shi Mubai sat up slightly, opened the bedside table drawer, and found a fruit knife inside.
He picked up a fruit knife and slashed his left wrist.
