Chapter 216 The Man Flees with the Money
Jiang Ming never dreamed that Zhao Xiaoya's purpose in returning this time was to empty his pockets and secretly run away.
When he called Zhao Xiaoya repeatedly, her phone kept showing that it was unreachable. So he used WeChat to send her text messages one after another, warning her to call him back immediately.
He only realized that Zhao Xiaoya had blocked him on WeChat when the sent text message showed a red exclamation mark.
After thinking about all this, Jiang Ming immediately risked being discovered by the police and returned to the construction site in the east of the city, where he was greeted by a stranger.
Where's Lao Wang?
"I don't know which Old Wang you're looking for. Many of my workers have the surname Wang."
Jiang Ming found the man's words strange and quickly asked, "I'm talking about contractor Wang Ke."
“He quit. I haven’t used him since I bought the building.”
Upon hearing that the man had bought the place, Jiang Ming hurriedly said, "This is my urban construction company, in which I invested 20 million. Who sold it to you? Find them for me!"
The Mediterranean man looked at him and hurriedly explained, "I bought this half-built building from a woman named Zhao Xiaoya. I've already paid ten million, so it's mine now."
"Impossible! The qualification is mine, it has my name on it, Jiang Ming. Zhao Xiaoya has no right to sell it secretly. Her deal with you is invalid."
The Mediterranean man looked at him coldly: "I bought this building through the proper channels. Don't cause me any trouble here."
After saying this, the man walked over and said, "You'd better get out of here, don't delay my business!"
In order to get to the bottom of things, Jiang Ming put on a smiling face: "How much did Zhao Xiaoya sell you this place for?"
“Ten million!” the man replied.
"I've already invested 20 million in this building so far, and Zhao Xiaoya sold it to you for 10 million? Is she crazy? That's right! She must be crazy. A madwoman doesn't have normal criminal capacity, so it doesn't count!"
Huang Jiansheng looked coldly at Jiang Ming: "She doesn't have a mental illness. This is the medical certificate she obtained from the hospital."
Fortunately, Huang Jiansheng had taken precautions. When he saw that Jiang Ming's name was on the certificate, he asked Zhao Xiaoya to show a certificate from the hospital.
When Jiang Ming saw the certificate in Huang Jiansheng's hand, he realized that he had been thoroughly deceived by Zhao Xiaoya.
"It's over!"
Suddenly, Jiang Ming remembered the correctional facility he had bought and immediately called Wu Wen.
At that moment, Wu Wen was packing his things, preparing to return to his hometown, when he saw an unfamiliar number answer: "Hello! Who is it?"
"Xiaowen, it's your brother Jiang Ming!"
Upon hearing Jiang Ming's voice, Wu Wen hurriedly asked, "Brother! Where have you been these past few days? Why did you change your number without telling me? Do you know that Zhao Xiaoya, with your ID card and your proof, has already sold the correctional facility for two million?"
Upon hearing Wu Wen's words, Jiang Ming hurriedly asked, "Where are you now?"
"The correctional facility was sold, and they no longer need me. I'm on my way home, brother! You know I have elderly parents and young children to support. If I can't get money home, my wife will divorce me. Can you please pay me my wages for this period of time?"
Jiang Ming didn't have a single penny. He came to the city from the countryside by taking a tricycle from the village. Since returning, Zhao Xiaoya hadn't transferred any money to him.
He originally thought Zhao Xiaoya would be devoted to him to the death, after all, he had been scheming against Song Qiao for her sake all these years, but he never expected that he would be schemed against by her and now have no money left.
It really does prove the saying: "The most poisonous heart is a woman's."
Jiang Ming collapsed to the ground, phone in hand. Huang Jiansheng, seeing the lifelessness in his eyes, looked at him with pity and said, "You probably don't know, but Zhao Xiaoya is Zhou Dali's woman. I didn't want to buy this project originally, but I've had business dealings with Zhou Dali for years, and he approached me on his own initiative..."
Jiang Ming got up from the ground, not paying any attention to what Huang Jiansheng was saying, and left the place in a daze.
At this moment, Jiang Ming only wanted to find Zhao Xiaoya immediately and get the money back.
He didn't dare go to the police station, so he could only ask Zhou Dali about the whereabouts of her husband.
After Lu Mingxuan drove away from Jiahe Jiayuan, he first took Tong Yao back to the hospital, where Song Qiao personally handed her over to Wang Cuihua and Tong Yujun.
"Yaoyao, Mom and Dad have something to do. You stay here with Mom and wait until Mom is discharged from the hospital before you go to school."
Tong Yao had been gone for half a day and missed Wang Cuihua. She came to her bedside, took her hand, and looked up at Song Qiao: "Mom, thank you!"
Song Qiao patted her head: "Yaoyao, I'm your mother. Don't be shy with me. Call me if you need anything."
Lu Mingxuan bought Tong Yao a cell phone, and Song Qiao helped her put it on while explaining some things to her.
Tong Yao put the watch on her wrist and looked down at it happily: "Jiang Xiaoran has one too. Every time we look at it, she asks us for money, or asks the people looking at it to buy her spicy snacks."
Hearing this, Song Qiao hugged Tong Yao with a heavy heart: "Mom will never let you suffer again. I will definitely protect you."
"Goodbye, Mom! Goodbye, Dad."
After saying goodbye to Tong Yao, Tong Yujun, and Wang Cuihua, the two left the ward.
They planned to go to Yushan to retrieve the herbs that Grandpa had prescribed for Song Jianguo.
When Jiang Ming found the mirage, Zhou Dali was calling Song Qiao repeatedly, but her phone remained switched off.
"That bitch!"
Zhou Dali felt like he'd been tricked by Zhao Xiaoya, and in anger, he threw his phone on the ground. As the phone shattered, he shouted, "Someone come here!"
A man in black walked in through the door: "Boss!"
"Get people to find Zhao Xiaoya and see what kind of hide-and-seek game she's playing with me!"
The man in black agreed and turned to leave. At that moment, another man in black walked in through the door: "Boss, there's a guy named Jiang Ming outside looking for you."
"Jiang Ming?"
Zhou Dali felt the name was very familiar, but couldn't remember who it was for a moment.
"Let him in!"
The man in black agreed and went outside to inform Jiang Ming: "Our boss wants you to come in."
Seeing Jiang Ming's disheveled appearance, the man in black looked at him with contempt.
At this moment, Jiang Ming was filled with anger and didn't take Zhou Dali seriously at all.
"You're Jiang Ming?"
Zhou Dali looked at Jiang Ming and finally understood that this was the man who took Zhao Xiaoya away ten years ago.
Seeing Zhou Dali glaring at him with anger in his eyes, Jiang Ming walked over and asked, "I want to know where Zhao Xiaoya is."
Zhou Dali glanced at him, but didn't even look at him directly, instead fiddling with the ring on his finger: "What do you want with her?"
"I asked her to return all my things. Did you buy the building in the east of the city and the correctional facility for her?"
