Chapter 667: Targeted
“What’s the matter? Don’t… Don’t scare me! We have Qianqian and a first-tier wealthy family as our backer. What else can be bad for us now?”
“I might have been targeted.”
Zhong Kuijun’s words made Jiang Shuwan and Jiang Hanlin’s faces turn pale simultaneously.
“What do you mean?” They asked in unison.
“Cloud Group has been laundering money for a certain powerful presence, and that presence has always been fighting against Chi Yang. It is also the presence that the special forces team has been attempting to take down.”
The Jiang family was dumbfounded.
“How… How did you know that you’ve been targeted?”
“Because Nuannuan has blocked my number.”
“Just because of that?” Jiang Shuwan instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
“You know that my sixth sense has always been very accurate. Frankly, I’ve had a bad feeling about this before, even though it wasn’t as strong. However, when you used my phone to call Nuannuan and found out that she blocked me, that strengthened the bad feeling that’s been nagging me. Nuannuan and Chi Yang are together. Yet, her action of blacklisting me was clear that she doesn’t care about me anymore. That’s why I have a feeling that I’ve been targeted.”
“Then… what will the military base do to you?”
Zhong Kuijun shook his head. “I don’t know. They’ll either cast a fis.h.i.+ng line long enough to catch the biggest fish, or they can arrest us directly.”
“They’ve already found something incriminating in Cloud Group?”
Zhong Kuijun frowned. “No. I stowed away the most important things in the safe before, but I was afraid that it wasn’t safe enough, so I destroyed them two days ago. At least they won’t be able to find any evidence after they arrest me.”
Jiang Hanlin heaved a sigh of relief and comforted him, “That’s good! That’s good! Cloud Group’s financial reports have always been excellent. Even the legal team from RS Bank couldn’t find anything wrong. As long as you destroy the original evidence, even if the higher-ups let you talk to them, there won’t be any problems. We don’t usually meet up with them anyway and we don’t know who they are, so it’ll be fine.”
“What? You’re involved too?” Grandma Jiang looked at Jiang Hanlin and felt like she had been struck by lightning.
As a senior woman from the village, Grandma Jiang was a person who preferred sons more than daughters. When it came to her only son, she raised Jiang Hanlin very well that he managed to become a university student at that time and age.
Yet, Jiang Hanlin partic.i.p.ated in such danger.
Once Zhong Kuijun was caught, her son would probably be the first to bear the brunt, right?
However, the two men did not provide Grandma Jiang’s concern any affirmation.
Zhong Kuijun said, “I hope so. That’s for the best. However, what I want to tell you is what will happen after I’m called in for interrogation—what if they have evidence against me and want to sentence me? What will you do?”
“Kuijun, tell us. We’ll just do as you say,” Jiang Hanlin replied loyally.
“After I go in, if they truly find evidence against me, find Zhong Qianqian and ask her family to find a way to get me out.”
“Don’t worry. Qianqian will be the daughter of a super-rich family in Camino in the future. How can she not help you, her father?” Jiang Shuwan vouched for Qianqian.
If it were any other time, the idea of losing Zhong Kuijun as her pillar of support would have terrified her to tears. However, she quickly recovered from her shock after encountering such a major incident.
