The King’s Enchanting

Chapter 1632 - 1645: Severing All Ties (9)

Especially, Situ Xuan did not buy the Cheng Family. The signed contract clearly stated that he has the right to make the most of his invested funds. The legal entity of the company has always been Cheng Juye, while the investment was made by Situ Xuan. Not to mention, although the 20 million paid to Yu Zexiao had already had 5 million advanced as a deposit, this money was allocated by Situ Xuan. And the rest would have to be paid by the Cheng Family.

Now that the Cheng Family is in this situation, they can consider breaching the contract and not paying the remaining amount. However, besides not refunding the initial 5 million, they would also have to pay the subsequent penalty fees for breach. In any case, the Cheng Family will suffer substantial financial loss.

Yu Zexiao’s attitude is such that there’s absolutely no way he would let the Cheng Family off without paying a penny. Not only him, but even Jian Anning would likely ensure to draw the last drop of blood.

People don’t offend me, I won’t offend them. Cheng Tingting has harmed her like this, and Cheng Juye is not entirely unaware. Given this, she doesn’t need to be courteous to the Cheng Family. After all—she only has an obligation to support Jian Panying alone.

Over here, two people are quarreling, while in the prison, the previously united brother and sister are also at each other’s throats.

Initially, when Cheng Wanli was arrested, he just confessed. He only knew that his sister found some friends, intending to teach Jian Anning a lesson, not extort money from her. As for the idea to kidnap her for a large ransom, it was the kidnappers’ own idea, unrelated to them.

Cheng Wanli understood clearly that to "teach a lesson" at most would only lead to criticism and fines. Later, hearing about Franz and others demanding a large ransom, he knew if it really happened, a significant crime would be inevitable.

Who would have thought, it would even lead to murder and a gun battle with the police! What stunned him most was that his own sister, when things went south, actually shot directly!

"I really didn’t know, I just heard my sister and that person discussing, saying they just wanted to teach her a lesson. I didn’t know they would resort to something like this."

When interrogating Cheng Tingting, she remained much calmer: "Me? I just wanted that woman’s life!"

"Did you plan to kill Miss Moon Jian from the beginning?"

Cheng Tingting merely sneered: "Yes, but it’s a pity, she repeatedly slipped through, and in the end, it all failed! I’m really unwilling!"

The police were startled, and a female officer asked, "But isn’t Miss Moon Jian your sister?"

"Sister? I don’t have such a sister!" Cheng Tingting’s eyes turned red, and her whole being seemed like a beast in shackles, extraordinarily terrifying.

When these words were reported to Cheng Wanli, he too, instantly yelled in fury!

He really did not intend to kill Jian Anning, at most, when they kidnapped her for ransom, he momentarily thought of getting a share.

But now, he had become a key suspect in kidnapping and murder, and even linked to the underworld!

Upon hearing this news, Cheng Wanli was about to erupt! He immediately protested, "No, don’t listen to her, she’s talking nonsense! I didn’t kill anyone, it’s not my concern!"

However, how could the police listen to just his side? Since Cheng Tingting had already confessed, he, as the brother, naturally couldn’t escape.
