Chapter 1046: Chapter 1035: Chamber of Commerce President
Strike the snake at its vital spot, Ning Fan wasn’t worried that Ma Jianguo wouldn’t comply.
Compared to a scandalous video circulating on online media, a piece of conclusive evidence, with Ma Jianguo’s handwritten embezzlement and bribery ledger, is clearly more deadly!
If this ledger goes public in the media, it can be said that Ma Jianguo will completely lose his footing in the Dragon City of Commerce.
Not only that, the bribery companies exposed along with him will have their reputation instantly plummet in the eyes of the public.
With the chain reaction, there’ll be a stock plunge, damaged company performance, loss of reputation, leading to countless economic losses.
With all these pressures combined, it wouldn’t just force Ma Jianguo to apologize to Ouyang Feifei, but even if asked to eat shit, he wouldn’t dare complain!
Sure enough, shortly after Ning Fan hung up the phone, Ma Jianguo’s call quickly came through.
Ning Fan glanced at the incessantly vibrating phone, leisurely whistling, with no intention of picking it up.
Amidst the persistent vibrations, the phone evoked a miniature earthquake sensation on Ning Fan’s desk.
Ning Fan pressed his hands on the desk, the smile on his face becoming increasingly playful.
The phone stubbornly vibrated for nearly ten minutes before grudgingly stopping.
When Ning Fan picked up the phone, he found nearly a hundred missed calls from Ma Jianguo.
“Heh heh, seems this old guy still values his position greatly.”
Ning Fan’s eyes flashed with a chilling light, speaking coldly.
When Ma Jianguo and Wang Jiaojiao’s intimate video started spreading online, Ma Jianguo still had the thought to call and threaten him, trying to use his own power to force him to submit.
But when Ning Fan lifted his final fig leaf, pointing directly to his embezzlement and bribery, thoroughly threatening his future in the Dragon City of Commerce, Ma Jianguo was utterly panicked.
Not to mention Ning Fan leisurely drinking coffee with Ouyang Feifei and handling company affairs.
Speaking of affairs, there’s actually not much going on now; the Dragon City Branch Company is almost in a half-paralyzed state. If they can’t resolve the tax issues and get back to legitimate operations soon, the consequences will be unimaginable.
But faced with imminent events, Ning Fan was not in a hurry.
He knew he could afford to wait, but Ma Jianguo couldn’t!
In his villa in the Huayuan District, Ma Jianguo was like an ant on a hot stove, pacing back and forth continuously in the hall.
His lips were dry, with a few small blisters already forming at some point.
After taking one last look at his phone, Ma Jianguo gave up the plan to keep calling Ning Fan, cursing violently: “Damn it, don’t let me find a chance to deal with you!”
Wang Jiaojiao was no longer her usual charming self, sitting restlessly on the sofa, her hands tightly entwined, her expression exceedingly anxious.
Even though the Public Relations Department of the Dragon City of Commerce had immediately contacted major portals, cutting off all video sources while also pulling down all reports from the portal’s headlines.
But in the eyes of those who are mindful, this matter isn’t something that can pass so simply.
Wang Jiaojiao’s phone was nearly exploded with calls, none of which she dared to answer.
The most frequent caller, of course, was her poor husband who had been cuckolded.
Unable to get through, Wang Jiaojiao’s husband sent countless messages, varying in content.
From angry roars and questioning, to indifferent disassociation, to finally sending a multimedia message reminiscent of a sentence.
In the multimedia message, Wang Jiaojiao saw a copy of the divorce agreement, with her husband’s name already signed on the signature spot, leaving the spot for her signature open and starkly uncomfortable.
“President Ma, what should I do?”
Wang Jiaojiao bit her lip, her voice piercingly calling out: “Now that my parents and husband all know about this, how can I ever face people again? You have to take responsibility for me.”
“If you don’t want to face people, then don’t. Back when you seduced me, why didn’t you say these things.”
Ma Jianguo was interrupted from his thoughts by Wang Jiaojiao, glancing at her coldly, speaking impatiently.
“How…how can you be like this.”
Wang Jiaojiao’s eyes widened, a shade of pain fleeting across her dim eyes as she sobbed: “That’s not what you said at the time, you said you liked me, willing to do anything for me, you said you would marry me.”
“Heh, it was nothing but talk, you took it seriously?”
Ma Jianguo grew more impatient, glaring at Wang Jiaojiao, sneering: “I saw you had some looks, played with you, you really thought of yourself as a heavenly goddess. Tell me honestly, did you bring someone into the villa from outside?”
Thinking it over, Ma Jianguo finally turned the blame on Wang Jiaojiao. He really couldn’t imagine how Ning Fan got hold of his ledgers in this villa—a place secured by guards outside, featuring high-tech locks inside, and drawers personally locked by him.
“Stop slandering me, how could I bring anyone here? You know you have always been the only one in my heart.”
Wang Jiaojiao’s face flushed, loudly refuting.
“Heh, if it wasn’t you, this little slut bringing someone in, who else could crack my villa’s fingerprint lock? Don’t pretend to be a chaste maiden in front of me.”
Ma Jianguo glanced at Wang Jiaojiao with distaste, saying with dissatisfaction: “Don’t act like a pure girl when you’ve been played by countless others.”
By this time, any last trace of affection Ma Jianguo had for Wang Jiaojiao had completely vanished.
Originally tempted by her youth and beauty, now with his future in the Dragon City of Commerce bleak, at risk of becoming an outcast hated by major companies, Ma Jianguo naturally had no thoughts of sweet-talking Wang Jiaojiao anymore.
Watching Wang Jiaojiao leave the villa, looking like a lost soul or a walking corpse, Ma Jianguo had no intention of stopping her.
After letting Wang Jiaojiao go and then contemplating on the sofa for nearly half an hour, Ma Jianguo gritted his teeth and returned to his study.
Opening the desk drawer, looking through the ledger originals, Ma Jianguo took the ledger with him, also grabbing the overseas funds bank cards he’d accumulated from embezzlement and bribery over the years, and left the villa.
“President, only you can help me now, Ning Fan, once I recover, I want you dead!”
A vicious glint passed through Ma Jianguo’s eyes as he angrily slammed the door shut, quickly got in the car, and drove in the direction of the Moon Pavilion, not far from Huayuan District, to find Guo Qingtian, president of the Dragon City of Commerce.
Guo Qingtian, president of the Dragon City of Commerce, member of a prestigious local family, if there’s anyone who can protect Ma Jianguo and his vice-presidential position, and make Ning Fan hand over the fatal ledger, it’s probably only him.
