Chapter 241: 234: Revenge is fulfilled, wishes come true.
The meeting ended.
Wen Changling was the last to leave, Meng Duolan was at the door, apparently waiting for her.
“Should I call you Director Wen from now on?”
“Whatever you like.”
Meng Duolan smiled and said, “Congratulations.”

Wen Changling didn’t catch the joy, “Thank you.”
Meng Duolan left first, and as she turned around, the smile on her face rapidly disappeared. She felt that heaven was too biased towards Wen Changling, so much so that it made her jealous.
The people from the Supervisory Committee took Wang Jun away, running into Wen Changling in the elevator.
Wang Jun was silent all the way until the elevator door opened.
“Why do you, such an important person, have to compete with us folks just scraping by?”
It sounded as if it were Wen Changling who was oppressing the weak.
“Manager Zhou mentioned your promotion to President Qi last month, if you could have kept your cool, the official papers would have come through this month,” she corrected him calmly and lucidly, “Stop making excuses for yourself. No one is competing with you. You made a mistake, and that mistake is yours alone, unrelated to anyone else. Had you possessed either integrity or ability, this wouldn’t have been the outcome.”
Wang Jun’s face turned ashen after listening.
The email in Wen Changling’s draft box that never got sent was edited by him. On the night of the third, Wen Changling had been at the company, and so had he. At one point, Wen Changling went out, and he tampered with her computer.
His leak was because of a mortgage payment, a very cliched, very real reason.
On the night of the third, Wen Changling had caught a “fish.”
Qin Qi and Yan Gaoxiang were close friends, close enough that Yan Gaoxiang was willing to commit a crime to provide a false alibi for him. Wen Changling didn’t believe that this Chief Financial Officer was just acting out of loyalty, she suspected he had some “indiscreet secrets.” So, she checked Yan Gaoxiang’s accounts, both the obvious and hidden ones. The amount of his assets was astonishing.
Apart from the technology and R&D staff, the computers of Huaqi’s senior executives were also encrypted and could only use the internal network. Yan Gaoxiang’s cousin was a senior director of the IT department, and with this “Fixing Pin of the Sea” in place, it would be easy for Yan Gaoxiang to tamper with the accounts.
Sure enough, she found some “good stuff.”
Thanks to his IT director cousin, Yan Gaoxiang was very well-informed. It wasn’t ten minutes before his computer was controlled when he called Wen Changling, “What did you do to my computer?”
“I restored a file you had shredded.”
Wang Jun had fiddled with her computer while Wen Changling stepped out to take the call.
In the call, Yan Gaoxiang was so agitated he couldn’t choose his words, “Who made you do this? Qin Qi? Did he ask you to find evidence?”
Qin Qi indeed knew.
That explained it, they could collude because they had something on each other.
“I’ve done the math; the amount is substantial. It should be enough for you to spend a few years behind bars.” Longer than for perjury.
Yan Gaoxiang was a smart man, from an accounting background, good at weighing pros and cons: “Miss Wen, please be lenient. If there’s anything I can do for you, just command me.”
The girl’s voice was crisp and gentle, “I have a suggestion, do you want to hear it?”
And so, Yan Gaoxiang betrayed Qin Qi, admitting he had frequently provided false alibis for Qin Qi.

Manager Zhou was a slippery fish.
“Director Wen,” Manager Zhou waved his hand, showing off his meticulously arranged office, “What do you think? If you’re not satisfied, I’ll change it.”
Thinking of his young boss, he even changed the chair to pink.
“No need to change it,” Wen Changling wasn’t quite used to the title, “Just call me Xiao Wen.”
Manager Zhou switched quickly, “Sure, Young Director Wen.”
“…”
Wen Changling transferred Dai Qiu to the technology department, the nature of her work remained the same, still a secretary. The results for the CEO election had already been determined, but there were still some days left until Chen Qiuchan retired, so the successor had not been announced yet.
Huaqi Technology underwent a top-level reshuffle, Qin Qi was arrested, and Yan Gaoxiang voluntarily resigned due to perjury.
The news of the Chief Technology Officer from Tipcoo Group joining Huaqi made the financial news. On the same day, the news that Xie Liangjiang, the head of KE Law Firm, was reported by name for bribery and was suspended for investigation also made the news.
The whistleblower: Meng Wenting, a senior partner of KE Law Firm and a member of the Management Committee.
The people from the Justice Department had already arrived.
“Director.”
Assistant Song Jin appeared slightly panicked.
Xie Liangjiang, however, was unhurried, “No need to make a fuss.” He nodded in greeting to the officials from the Justice Department, then stood up composedly, instructing Song Jin, “Hand my cases over to Lawyer Sun. The partners’ meeting next week will proceed as usual.”
“Then who will preside over it?”
Six days before the partnership meeting were enough.
Xie Liangjiang said, “I’ll preside over it.”
When Xie Liangjiang was taken away by the judicial department’s personnel, all the lawyers saw it. As he passed by Meng Wenting, Xie Liangjiang specifically left a message for his old friend.
“Old Meng, when you conspire with a tiger, are you mentally prepared?”
Meng Wenting’s heart missed a beat.
That tiger…
Xie Liangjiang glanced in the direction of Xie Shang’s office.
That afternoon, Xie Jingxian summoned Xie Shang to the Flower Chamber Hall.
“Did you have a hand in your father’s affair?” he asked.
Xie Shang admitted without changing his expression, “Yes.”
Xie Jingxian slammed his walking stick heavily on the ground, “Do you really intend to send him away?”
“He deserved his punishment.”
“You—”
The walking stick was raised, but it didn’t fall. Xie Jingxian felt heartache, as one was his son and the other his grandson; how could these two blood-related individuals have come to such a pass.
The grandson he had placed great hopes in was now someone he could no longer understand or control.
He waved his hand and slumped down, drained of strength, “You can go.”
Xie Shang lit the agarwood on the table before leaving. It was the incense he had brought, known for its effects in calming asthma, pacifying the wind, and soothing the heart and mind.
Xie Jiwen was in the living room.
“Xiao Shang,” he called Xie Shang to stay for dinner, “Have dinner before you go.”
“No, thanks.”
Xie Jiwen didn’t insist and walked Xie Shang to the door.
With no one around, Xie Jiwen said, “Xiao Shang, don’t forget your promise.”
Xie Shang had made a promise to Xie Jiwen, to let him sit in that chair.
Xie Jiwen was the second in the family, and like many second children, seemed inconspicuous. With an ambitious older brother above and a younger brother below who was the apple of their father’s eye, he, stuck in the middle, was nothing.
“Uncle Two.”
As Xie Jiwen was about to enter the house, he turned around.
Xie Shang had always had a suspicion, “Uncle, did you guess the cause of our little uncle’s death right from the start?”
It was since then that Xie Jiwen’s business capabilities began to decline, slowly being marginalized in the law firm.
He smiled with a naive expression, “Without evidence, I can’t speak rashly.”
It was a fight over inches of fabric and scoops of grain, this was the Xie family, the very Xie family Xie Shang detested.
Taking advantage of the sunset, Xie Shang drove to Lotus Pond Street. Wen Changling had already moved back to Granny Zhu’s place, and on a day like today, he really wanted to see her.
Granny Zhu had gone to buy groceries, and the courtyard gate was open. A rocking chair was placed in the yard, and wrapped in a blanket, Wen Changling lay on it.
As Xie Shang approached, he noticed she had her eyes closed; the setting sun cast a soft glow over her face, making even the finest fuzz visible.
Xie Shang didn’t make a sound to disturb her, instead going inside to fetch her heavy coat and draping it over her.
“Meow.”
Huahua went over to Xie Shang’s shoes, seeking attention, and he made a shushing gesture. It seemed to understand and quieted down.
The days had been too cold recently, and all the blossoms on the Hooked Cymbidium had fallen.
Xie Shang walked over to the Hooked Cymbidium. Wen Changling had said that this plant had been transplanted from the grave of Wen Yuan and Ah Na, and she had even buried liquor in the ground here, saying she would dig it up and drink once her vengeance was fulfilled.
Xie Shang stood by the rocking chair for a long time.
Changling, wait for me a little longer.
Soon, you will have your wish fulfilled.
…
After Xie Shang left, Wen Changling opened her eyes.
Numerous enemies, due retribution—this was the Pawn Gold she had once demanded from Xie Shang.
