My Wife, The Ice Queen President

Chapter 173: Chapter 0173: The Final Ending_1
 

Ye Yangyang was stunned.

Ye Yuandong was stunned too.

Everyone in the room was so thunderstruck by Ye Xiong’s statement that they couldn’t react.

Hadn’t the incident from that year been thoroughly investigated? Even the police had closed the case, attributing the car accident to Qiao Mei’ling’s distraction. How could Ye Chen suddenly say something like this?

Dong Xuan’s face instantly turned the color of a dead pig.

She had been slumped on the ground, but upon hearing Ye Xiong’s words, she sprang to her feet.

The things Ye Xiong said before could ruin her reputation, but at least she would still be alive.

She had already considered that she would take her daughter and leave this place as soon as possible, find someplace where nobody knew them, assume a new identity, and start a new life.

Although she had spent twenty million to have Ye Jun killed, she still had hundreds of thousands on her person, enough for her and her daughter to live a modest life.

As long as you are alive, there is hope.

But if she were convicted of murder by poisoning, she would spend the rest of her life in prison.

Even if she wasn’t sentenced to death, if she were given a life sentence or even just ten or fifteen years, she couldn’t accept it.

She was no longer young. In another ten or fifteen years, she would be an old woman. What would be the point of living then?

“Ye Jun, don’t falsely accuse me,” Dong Xuan roared in anger. “I warn you, this is a legal matter, and I will sue you for defamation.”

“You want evidence, do you? I’ll show you.” Ye Xiong sneered and pressed the remote control.

The background was a hotel room,

with two people sitting together, completely nude, clearly having just finished a bout.

Blurry pixels covered both people, avoiding any exposure.

But the woman was clearly Dong Xuan, with a close-up of her face.

The man’s features were entirely obscured by the pixels.

What followed was a conversation between the two.

“Every time, you leave me hanging, useless.”

“Give me a minute. I just took some imported meds; I promise I can go again soon.”

“I don’t want to do it anymore, not interested.”

“Come on, one more time. I guarantee you’ll be satisfied.”

“Tomorrow night is the jewelry exhibition, and I still have things to discuss with that old geezer when I get back. I can’t stay too long. What are you going to do about Ye Jun’s return?”

“He’s nothing—just an impulsive waste. It’s so easy to deal with him. You managed to get someone to put sleeping pills in Qiao Mei’ling’s water before, can’t you do the same trick again, give him some poison?”

“Weren’t you the one who promised not to bring that up again? What’s gotten into you now?”

“If I didn’t bring it up, would you still respect this penniless, talentless man?” The man walked over and hugged her, huffing coldly, “Dong Xuan, don’t forget you have dirt in my hands. Don’t think you can get rid of me by killing me. I’ve left the information with a friend. If I don’t call them within ten days, they’ll send it to the police. If you don’t want to be ruined, just be obedient.”

Ye Xiong turned off the video, his voice cold, “Now, what do you have to say?”

“That was just a joke, it doesn’t prove anything,” Dong Xuan stubbornly denied.

“Denial to death’s door.”

Ye Xiong pressed play on the video again.

The background was the office of Jianghai Group.

The date: July 2, 2009, 2:31 in the afternoon.

The recording had a timestamp, which coincided with half an hour before Qiao Mei’ling’s accident.

In the footage, Dong Xuan passed by a female employee, handed her a small packet of powder, and said, “If you don’t want to be fired, put this in Qiao Mei’ling’s water.”

“What is this?” the female employee asked, concerned.

“Don’t ask so many questions. Just do as you’re told.”

“Yes.”

The female employee took the medicine and left.

Ye Xiong paused the recording and said, “This document, the very thing that man on the video used to coerce you into being his sex partner, you didn’t expect it to end up in my hands, did you? The female employee who you authorized to drug has been detained by the police, and now, what else do you have to say?” Ye Xiong scoffed coldly.

Dong Xuan collapsed to the ground, her face ashen, staring intently at Ye Xiong, and suddenly she began to scream madly.

“Yes, I was the one who had her drugged, so what? That bitch deserved it for being clueless, old and ugly. If she’d just agreed to divorce Yuandong earlier, she wouldn’t have died…”

She did not finish her sentence when a loud bang erupted.

The several dozen pounds heavy lectern in front of Ye Xiong was sent flying by his kick, hitting Dong Xuan directly, sending her tumbling three or four meters away, spitting out blood.

Ye Xiong swooped down like a great Peng spreading its wings, lifted her up beside him, grabbed her neck with one hand, and said coldly, “I dare you to say that again.”

“I said your mom is a bitch, not worthy of living, what are you going to do, kill me? Come on then!” Dong Xuan roared in rage.

She also spat a mouthful of saliva towards Ye Xiong’s face.

Sure enough, had Ye Xiong not dodged quickly, he would have been hit squarely.

“You’re seeking death.”

Ye Xiong tightened his grip, clamping down hard on her neck.

Dong Xuan’s face turned purple-red, on the verge of suffocation.

At that moment, a figure dashed out from the crowd, held his arm, and urged, “Ah Xiong, don’t be impulsive.”

The person who came out to stop him was Yang Xinyi.

She was terrified that Ye Xiong would kill Dong Xuan in a fit of rage and that he would not be able to escape the law’s punishment.

“Listen to me, don’t do anything rash, okay?” Yang Xinyi looked at him with tears flickering in her eyes.

“Brother, listen to your sister-in-law, you can’t kill people.” Ye Yangyang came over and held onto him tightly.

“You think by provoking me into killing you, I’d end up in prison, you’re dreaming,” Ye Xiong said with a cold smile on his lips, “To die would be too easy for you, just wait for your next life in prison.”

After saying that, Ye Xiong threw her fiercely onto the ground.

At this moment, two plainclothes police officers stepped out from the crowd and walked up to Dong Xuan, showing their badges.

“Miss Dong Xuan, we are from the Capital City Public Security Bureau, and we suspect you are involved in a murder case from six years ago, please come back with us for questioning.”

The cold handcuffs were clamped onto Dong Xuan’s wrists.

Just a moment ago, Dong Xuan, who was ready to take on the role of President of Jianghai Group, found herself, within half an hour, disgraced and in chains.

This turn of events was unexpected to everyone.

Apart from sighing at the unpredictability of life and the complexity of human hearts, what else can one say?

No one would have imagined that a grand jewelry event would conclude in such a manner.

The crowd at the venue gradually dispersed.

Tang Ning ran over, gave Ye Xiong a thumbs-up, and said, “Brother-in-law, that was awesome, totally awesome.”

“You didn’t do too bad tonight yourself,” Ye Xiong laughed.

“I just taught a rat a lesson, nothing compared to you taking down a big tiger,” Tang Ning said excitedly, her eyes shining like stars, suddenly remembering something, she asked, “By the way, who was that man threatening Dong Xuan, and why did you pixelate his face? Why not catch him too?”

“That person, it seems to be my uncle,” Ye Yangyang whispered.

“What, your uncle?”

Yang Xinyi and Tang Ning could hardly believe their ears.

“Ye Yuandong got cuckolded by his own younger brother, serves him right,” Tang Ning cursed.

“The mission is complete, and my mother’s vengeance is avenged, let’s go home,” Ye Xiong sighed.

Having avenged his great revenge, he should have felt very satisfied, but he now realized that his heart wasn’t as relieved as he had imagined.

Instead, there was more melancholy. To avenge this vendetta, too many people had paid a price.

The group of four was about to head back when suddenly a figure came forward, blocking Ye Xiong’s way.

“Ah Jun, can I talk to you for a moment?” Ye Yuandong asked excitedly.
