Chapter 2659 Be My Ninth Concubine
Chapter 2659 Be My Ninth Concubine
Her next task was to devour the entire shipping magnate family and eventually make all those ships hers.
The day after Seventh Young Master woke up, he was discharged from the hospital and went home. Qiao Ya moved into the shipping magnate's house with Seventh Young Master.
The shipping magnate didn't say much when he saw them return.
He called Qiao Ya over and asked her bluntly, "Xiao Ya, why don't you become my concubine, and then we'll merge the Qiao family into your family? I won't treat you badly in the future!"
When the shipping magnate said those words, Joa almost exploded.
She was practically pointing her finger at him and yelling: "Are you even human? Your son has gone stupid, and you just want to steal your daughter-in-law to be your concubine!"
So this bed king really deserves to die. Although she was very angry, she didn't directly refuse.
Because she knew very well that with his personality, the more she rejected him, the more excited he would become.
It's even highly likely that they'll use force on the spot.
So he said he needed to go back and think about it, because so much had happened these past few days that he couldn't accept it.
His words finally silenced the shipping magnate for a few days.
After Xiaoya returned home and closed the door, a pair of arms reached out from behind and wrapped around her waist.
Qiao Ya was startled, but when the familiar scent entered her nostrils, her tense nerves relaxed.
He turned and hugged the sea view, and the two embraced.
Hai Jing said in a low voice, "Was the wedding planned in advance?"
"When those people rushed in, I really wanted to take action immediately."
Qiao Ya reassured her in a low voice, "Wasn't this all part of our plan?"
“Elman told me beforehand that the people he brought might kidnap me to humiliate the shipping magnate and the Seventh Master.”
"Only in this way can I feel safer."
Hai Jing paused for a moment and said, "I know, but I still can't just watch you get taken away like that."
"God knows how hard Haijing had to restrain himself from rushing out and killing people."
Qiao Ya soothed her softly, "It's okay, it's all over now, everything is over."
With his reassurance, Hai Jing finally felt a little more at ease.
At this point, the two sat down and began to discuss serious matters.
Qiao Ya said, "Now that old ship magnate has his eyes on me, I plan to make my move soon, I can't wait any longer."
Hearing this almost made Hai Jing explode again.
Xiaoya held him tightly until she calmed him down. She whispered, "The problem now is that I don't have any children. His other two sons, the eldest of whom already has children."
"If the shipping magnate dies like this, either his estate will be divided equally, or all his assets will go to the first wife's branch of the family."
"But no matter which one it is, it's not what I want to see. Since I've already invested so much, I want to bring all their stuff over here."
As Qiao Ya spoke, her eyes lit up.
The shipping magnate treated her so badly, and even wanted to kidnap her to be his concubine. Just thinking about it made her grit her teeth in hatred.
He wouldn't be able to swallow his anger unless he could make that old man die without any descendants, or even cause his family to be destroyed.
Hai Jing was also angry, even though he was from the military.
We should learn to be kind, not so cruel.
But this old man is a real scoundrel, and he's utterly inhuman. You want to be kind, but he doesn't care at all!
So he stroked his chin and walked around the room, saying, "Do you know what enemies the shipping magnate has?"
"If you can find his rival and make him take action, then you can simply sit back and reap the benefits."
He paused for a moment, then asked, "He claims to have 18 concubines. Are all 18 concubines still around?"
Qiao Ya shook her head and said, "Of his 18 concubines, only 6 are still with him now. The rest are either dead, sold off by him, or have run away."
"Only these six people have the right to inherit the property. He originally had seven children, but three of them died and only the seventh young master is still disabled."
"So if you want to get his family's property, you have to kill the shipping magnate, kill his six concubines, and kill his two other children."
Haijing then asked, "Does he have a mother, uncles, brothers, or anything like that?"
Qiao Ya shook his head: "No, he's an orphan. He built the current prosperity and acquired so much wealth all by himself. Haijing has to admit, that old man is quite capable."
Whether the shipping magnate had any mortal enemies, Joa didn't know, and she couldn't provide any useful information.
Haijing said, "It's alright, I'll go talk to Grandpa Zheng."
“He knows a lot and is well-informed; he might have some clues.”
I'll come see you again tomorrow.
Xiaoya nodded. Before leaving, Haijing gave her a bottle of pepper spray, a short stun gun, and a knife, meaning that she should protect herself.
But after shoving all these things at Qiao Ya, he still whispered, "If we really encounter danger, none of these can protect you. Just try to save your life. Even if you lose your innocence, it doesn't matter. I don't care about any of that. I just want you to live."
Hai Jing spoke sincerely, her eyes brimming with tears.
Hearing this, Qiao Ya's heart stirred, a warm current surged through her, and she was deeply moved.
He gave a muffled "hmm" and said in a low voice, "I will take good care of myself."
The sea view jumped out of the window.
He found Grandpa Zheng in the middle of the night.
Grandpa Zheng had just fallen asleep when he was woken up by the sea view. When he saw the sea view, he rolled his eyes in anger.
Hai Jing said in a low voice, "Grandpa, please help me, I really have no other choice."
Grandpa Zheng frowned and said, "What's wrong with you? Did someone steal your wife away?"
In fact, how could he not know about what happened to the shipping magnate today?
Such a grand wedding, during which the daughter-in-law, the bride, was kidnapped and her chastity was tarnished.
The news had already made headlines throughout Hong Kong, so of course the patriarch of the Cheng family knew about it immediately.
Although he knew it was all an act, he was still quite worried about Qiao Ya.
When Haijing came to find him, he wondered if something had happened to Qiao Ya.
Haijing whispered what he had learned. When he heard that the shipping magnate wanted to force Qiao Ya to become his concubine, Old Master Zheng was so angry that he almost jumped out of bed.
He said, "I knew that old man was lecherous and shameless, but I never imagined he would be this shameless."
He paused, then asked, "What are your plans?"
Haijing said, "Do you know which sworn enemies the shipping magnate has?"
Old Master Zheng narrowed his eyes.
He remained silent for a moment, a look of understanding flashing in his eyes, but there was no disdain, only a hint of appreciation.
He asked, "Did you come up with this idea, or did that girl, Joan, do it?"
Haijing didn't want Qiao Ya to take the blame, and she didn't want Grandpa Zheng to think that Qiao Ya was a scheming and vicious woman.
So he took the blame: "It was my idea."
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Zheng burst into laughter, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "You're a good lad, just my type. I like you."
