Chapter 174: Am I Clear?
"Do you think it’s as simple to settle tax evasion?" Cheng Songyang looked coldly at his stupid sister. He sneered, "That foreign trade company is not as simple as you think. In addition, the authorities suspected the Cheng Foundation of illegal fund-raising and fraud. Do you think I don’t want to get my mother out? But do I look like I can do so?"
"No... Mom will be fine..." Cheng Liu was devastated. She was still hoping that she could earn both fame and fortune after coming back from the mountains. Cheng Liu had dreamt about getting along with those wealthy ladies and taking over her mother’s job. She would become as outstanding as her mother. But now, nothing was left for her and her mother.
Cheng Liu broke down and cried loudly. She grabbed Cheng Songyang’s arm and shouted frantically, "It’s all because of Shen Hanxing. It’s all because of her! Brother, I want Shen Hanxing to pay for what she had done!"
"Enough! Stop causing more trouble!" Cheng Songyang pushed Cheng Liu away in annoyance, making her fall onto the sofa. His eyes filled with disgust and disdain. He looked at her. "if it wasn’t for you and mom dragging me down, why would I follow Ji Yan and work for him like a dog? It’s fine if you can’t help me, but at least stay obedient and don’t cause trouble for me!"
If his mother and sister were half as capable as Shen Hanxing, the Ji Corporation would already be in his hands.
"You blame us for it?" Cheng Liu couldn’t believe what she heard. "Why are you blaming us? If it weren’t for mom helping you get money, would you have so much money? I have been in the mountains during New Year just because of you."
"For who?" Cheng Songyang sneered. "You wouldn’t say it was for me, would you? Cheng Liu, everything you did was for your reputation. If it weren’t for your insatiable greed, you wouldn’t have ended up in this situation!"
Someone had exposed the scheme of mountain area donation. So, the foundation’s fraudulent donation was already an indisputable fact. Ji Mei’s imprisonment was unavoidable, and the scariest thing was that the relevant departments were already investigating the fund flow related to the foundation. Even Cheng Songyang was now tied up. He had no choice and had to tuck his tail between his legs.
"Yes, I did it for myself, but mom did it all for you!" She had long known that this brother of hers had a cold heart. But at this moment, Cheng Liu still couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart. "Brother, do you still have a conscience?"
"Conscience?" Cheng Songyang’s face turned gloomy, and his eyes turned red in anger. He took a step forward and grabbed Cheng Liu’s neck.
"Ugh..." Cheng Liu could not breathe. She struggled to pull his hand away, but Cheng Songyang strangled tighter. Cheng Liu choked.
