“It’s too much to resort to pestering and hara.s.sing.” Miao Jing was annoyed. Wei De had driven her up the wall. She felt like going to the extreme by driving Wei De out of Ping Cheng.
There was a cold glint in Zhai Hua’s eyes. “Mom, don’t worry. You won’t see him anymore after Lunar New Year. He won’t dare to call us ever again.”
“Hua Hua, we won’t do anything illegal.” Miao Jing was shocked.
Zhai Hua sneered. “The Zhai family has a good reputation. How can I allow it to be destroyed by Wei De? I won’t do anything to him. He is not worthy of it. My friends heard about what happened and want to teach him a lesson.” She had nothing to do with it.
Wei De was such a fool. Everything that he had was given to him by Zhai Hua.
Given this situation, how dare Wei De lie to Zhai Hua. Furthermore, he was so audacious to bring Wei Wei to Ping Cheng and wanted Zhai Hua to take care of him. He was courting death.
Zhai Hua’s friends wanted to teach Wei De a lesson, but there was no need for them to do it by themselves. They only needed to spread the news about Wei De. Once they did that, there was no way for Wei De to run businesses in Ping Cheng.
One had to have the capital to start a company.
The company did not make any money but had to incur losses. The Wei family was not rich. It would not be long before Wei De ended up with debts and was sent out of Ping Cheng!
“That’s good.” As long as it was not illegal, Miao Jing did not care how they taught Wei De a lesson or how miserable he ended up to be.
The Zhai family did not care to know how miserable Wei De was. They had cut off all contact with him.
The problem was, even though Wei De was not able to contact the Zhai family, he was still able to contact other people.
“Qiao Nan, I know that you are back. Come out right now. You are so wicked. You are already engaged to Zhai Sheng. I did not do you any wrong. How can you be so selfish and go overboard? You may be enjoying life, but you deprive others of the chance to lead a good life.”
The person that Wei De hated the most in this life was Qiao Nan.
Ever since she knew that he was in love with Zhai Hua, Qiao Nan did not treat him well and she refused all his pleas to help him. She even made trouble for Zhai Hua and him.
If not for Qiao Nan, Zhai Hua and the Zhai family would never know that Wei Wei was his son. Although he had a wedding banquet in the countryside, his profile stated that he was single.
Qiao Nan found out about his secret and caused him to be left with nothing. He had to demand an explanation from her.
Qiao Nan had heard about Wei De’s recent situation.
His company was solely funded by Zhai Hua and it was with the help of Zhai Hua’s friends that it managed to get the business going. Right now, the company was declared bankrupt.
Wei De could no longer go back to the army and his company had declared bankruptcy. He had no choice but to set up a smaller company.
However, it was because of the help of others that he was successful in his previous company.
Wei De could no longer rely on Zhai Hua’s childhood friends to help him. He had to run the company by himself. The problem was the bosses that used to be amiable and pleasant mocked him and snubbed him.
Wei De started the new company with the money that he had saved previously. After failing at clinching business deals, he did not have much money left.
In the end, Wei De was left with no choice but to dismiss all the employees in his company. Now, he was solely in charge of running the company.
The Zhai family’s residence was like an impregnable fortress. Wei De had no way of getting near the Zhai family.
Recently, he heard that Qiao Nan was back from the capital for her year-end break. Wei De rushed to her house, thinking of making things difficult for her.
Qiao Nan kept silent at Wei De’s rude and crude remarks. She picked up the phone at her house and dialed 110. “h.e.l.lo, yes, I want to make a police report. My house is at… Police officer, I feel that my life is being threatened.”
There was no need for Qiao Nan to go into detail. She directed the receiver toward the door. The police officer could hear the harsh remarks that Wei De made clearly.
The police officer’s demeanor changed when he made out what Wei De was saying. “You must remain calm. Remember, no matter what, you must not open the door to let the person in. We will be there right away.”
“Okay, I will not open the door.” After confirming that the police officers would be there, Qiao Nan hung up the phone and yawned. She waited for the police officers to bring Wei De away.
Qiao Nan walked to the door when she heard the sirens of the police car. “What are you doing? Even if you are a police officer, you can’t catch people as you wish. I didn’t break the law. Why do you put these cuffs on me?! Do you know that I used to be a soldier? I am part of the People’s Liberation Army!”
Qiao Nan could not help but curse. How dared he bring up the People’s Liberation Army! He had shamed them.
Qiao Nan opened the door after she was certain that the police officer had Wei De under control. “Police officer, thank you very much.”
“It’s nothing. You have done the right thing. One must report to police when one sees a suspicious person.” Wei De seemed suspicious. The police officer subdued him without another word.
It was true that Wei De looked unkempt, but the police officers had seen other wanderers who were in a worse state than him.
However, the police officers were worried. Wei De did not seem to be in the right state of mind. He kept las.h.i.+ng out at Qiao Nan and would kick the door from time to time. The police officers felt that he was aggressive and in an unstable state of mind.
After determining that Wei De was not related to the person who called the police, the police officers subdued Wei De so that he would not have the chance to launch an attack on other people.
“Yes, I will.” She would definitely do that.
“Qiao Nan, it’s you again. You want to do me in. I won’t let you off!” Wei De hated Qiao Nan to the core. She had called the police to arrest him.
He did not understand why there would be people like Qiao Nan in the world. If she was dead or did not exist in the first place, it would be so much better.
There were all kinds of people in the world. Why was Qiao Nan bent on targeting him? Why was she bent on meddling in his affairs, causing him to be in such a state? All his plans were thwarted and he made a fool in front of everyone, becoming the joke of the entire Ping Cheng.
In the past month, apart from sending money to his hometown on time, Wei De refused to speak on the phone with his family in the countryside. He gave the excuse that he was busy at work and his company needed to move to a new location.
But if this went on, even if Wei De could come up with all sorts of excuses, he would not be able to keep up with the appearances for long.
