Chapter 396: Chapter 396: A Thorough Counterattack
Qiao Sheng screamed and cried, begging everyone to testify for her.
Seeing her ugly behavior, the old man marked a big cross in his mind!
"Useless!" he thought, "The business world changes rapidly, with so many unexpected events that are far worse than this. If one gets flustered over such a small thing, how can they handle anything?"
As for Sheng Tang, she watched Sheng Qiao silently, neither proud nor anxious.
Sheng Qiao, seeing that her mother wouldn’t speak, turned to her father: "Daddy..."
The family head was furious.
For his daughter to do such a disgraceful thing on New Year’s Day, in front of Sheng Sidong’s entire family, it was humiliating.
He gave Sheng Qiao a heavy slap: "Behave yourself!"
Sheng Qiao saw stars from the slap and cried.
The family head’s wife immediately came over to hold her daughter, ready to quarrel with him: "Why did you hit her?"
"This is your good teaching!" he roared.
He hated showing weakness in front of Sheng Sidong, yet he had no abilities himself.
And now, his daughter had brought him such shame!
"Alright, alright, it’s good that it was found." The second wife came to mediate, not wanting Sheng Sidong’s family to laugh at them, "Sister-in-law, take Qiao upstairs."
At this moment, Sheng Tang stepped forward: "Leaving just like that? How was the watch stolen, how was the surveillance turned off, are we not talking about it?"
The people in the old house glared at her fiercely.
Sheng Zhang and Sheng Rong, who knew the truth, were also puzzled.
Sheng Qiao went to place the watch, but did the watch fly back into her pocket by itself? Or did she forget to put it there?
She couldn’t be that stupid, could she?
"Enough!" the family head’s wife harshly reprimanded her, "Know when to stop."
Fang Mengying was even angrier, blocking Sheng Tang: "Why are you yelling at my daughter? It was your daughter who wanted to be searched, and she volunteered to be the first one. Who forced her? She made a mistake and gets no punishment at all?"
The family head’s wife gritted her teeth in hatred.
And Sheng Qiao knew all too well that it was Sheng Tang who set her up, and Sheng Tang’s mother still dared to provoke them. Enraged, she disregarded the pain on her face and tried to hit Fang Mengying.
The family head’s wife held her tightly, not allowing her to do anything.
Sheng Tang watched them, then turned to the old master: "Grandfather, Zong went to the front building’s second floor because Sheng Qiao misled him. She told him I was over there, but at that time, I was being pestered by Sheng Rong."
"You, you liar!" Sheng Rong, fearing the conflict would reach her after seeing her cousin defeated, never imagined Sheng Tang would involve her.
Sheng Rong did nothing but follow Sheng Qiao’s instructions.
Sheng Tang ignored her and continued speaking to the old master: "When I saw Zong leave the building, I worried about him and followed.
We two knew nothing about the front building and didn’t know Room 4 was the surveillance room. But Sheng Qiao misled him there, and I was uneasy, worried something would happen.
So I placed my phone behind the mural and captured the entire process on video. Whoever entered Room 4 and turned off the surveillance, I recorded it all."
Sheng Zhang, standing aside, wavered a bit.
Panic appeared on his face.
The old master caught his expression perfectly.
"Good, caught another one," the old master thought.
He looked at the calm Sheng Tang, seeing how she carefully planned each step, turning the tables on those who tried to trap her. The old man almost wanted to applaud her.
Such cleverness must be inherited from the Xu family’s genes!
The Xu family excelled at maneuvering and had risen to prominence in Beijing.
Xu Bingzhi, who started his business abroad alone, also achieved great success.
Sheng Sidong and his wife were too kind-hearted and simple by nature, incapable of producing such a brilliantly cunning daughter like Sheng Tang.
"Where’s the video?" The old master decided to help Sheng Tang.
Sheng Zhang almost collapsed, barely able to stand.
