Chapter 1139: Chapter 1154: The Plan to Escape

Jinye pondered for a moment, then shouted to the outside, "Quick, call Chengzai to come in."

After speaking, Jinye turned his gaze to Mei Niang, reached out and patted her, caressing her gently, "Mei Niang, I also hope it wasn’t you who betrayed me. You know you’re my most cherished woman."

"Master Jin, you should be clear on how I feel about you. I hope you can give me an explanation for this matter too," Mei Niang looked at Jinye and said.

"Mei Niang, don’t worry, I will give you an explanation," Jinye nodded.

Not long after, Chengzai walked in from outside.

As Chengzai entered, Mei Niang stepped forward and looked at him with a questioning tone, "Chengzai, how do I treat you usually?"

Chengzai nodded respectfully, "Mei Niang has always been very kind to me. I am very grateful to her."

"Since that’s the case, why did you target me in front of Master Jin and speak ill of me?" Mei Niang said angrily.

Chengzai glanced at Mei Niang, "Mei Niang, what I said is all based on the facts I investigated. I absolutely have no intention of slandering you."

Mei Niang nodded, "Alright then, since that’s the case, everything we say needs to be backed by evidence. You present the evidence, as long as there is evidence, I absolutely won’t say another word and will let you handle it."

Jinye, sitting at his desk, lit a cigarette and glanced at Chengzai, "Chengzai, Mei Niang is right. Whatever you say must be based on evidence. Do you have evidence?"

Chengzai nodded, "I have evidence proving Mei Niang used to be with Lin Mu."

"Hehe, Chengzai, don’t just find a few subordinates and count them as evidence," Mei Niang said with a smile, looking at Chengzai.

"Aside from the evidence from a few small followers, I also have surveillance footage from that day to prove it, but I’d have to trouble the security department to get it," Chengzai said, looking at Jinye.

Upon hearing this, Mei Niang felt quite anxious. At that time, she thought there was no major issue, so she didn’t tamper with the surveillance, and if the footage from that day was retrieved, she would definitely have nothing to say.

"Alright then, let’s bring up the surveillance footage and take a look. The truth will naturally come out," Jinye nodded.

"Boss, I’ll go get the surveillance footage and send it to you," Chengzai said.

Jinye waved his hand, "No need, I’ll go with you all to take a look."

"Alright then," Chengzai nodded.

Jinye with the cigarette in his mouth walked out of the office, planning to go to the security department to check the surveillance equipment. As the door opened, Uro Iji appeared at the door.

"Mr. Iji, is there something you need?" Jinye glanced at Uro Iji and asked.

Uro Iji nodded, "Boss Jin, please come with me to the airport. The batch of people I brought, along with the experts brought by Mr. Hatanaka, have both arrived at Zhengzhou Airport."

"Alright then, I’ll make a trip with you," Jinye nodded.

"Boss, what about checking the surveillance footage?" Chengzai asked.

"I’ll handle it when I return. Mei Niang, before the matter is thoroughly investigated, please don’t leave the International Club," Jinye said to Mei Niang, also giving Chengzai a subtle task, which was to keep an eye on Mei Niang.

"Master Jin, go ahead, I’ll wait for your return. Don’t worry, I won’t go anywhere. I need to prove my innocence," Mei Niang said, watching Jinye, feeling relieved in her heart. Thankfully, Uro Iji came to find Jinye; if it had been a moment later, it might have been too late.

"Mr. Iji, let’s go!" Jinye said, and then he followed Uro Iji and a group of his subordinates downstairs.

After Jinye left, Chengzai smiled at Mei Niang, "Mei Niang, you should rest in the office for a while. It’s not too late to check the footage when Boss Jin returns."

Mei Niang glanced at Chengzai; although temporarily out of danger, there would still be danger once Jinye came back, so the best plan now was to escape.

But Mei Niang quickly felt disheartened, even if she could escape the International Club, there was nowhere to go. Zhengzhou was Jinye’s territory, and the whole Henan region was under Jinye’s influence. She couldn’t escape from Jinye’s grasp.

It seemed she needed another plan; Mei Niang said nothing more and turned to enter the office.

"Mei Niang, wait a moment," Chengzai stopped Mei Niang, then smiled and said, "Mei Niang, please hand over your phone."

Mei Niang, quite angry, looked at Chengzai, "Chengzai, how dare you? What do you mean?"

"Mei Niang, please don’t get angry. I didn’t mean anything by it; I’m just following the rules. I hope you understand," Chengzai smiled and said.

"Hmph, what if I refuse?" Mei Niang snorted coldly.

"Mei Niang, then don’t blame Chengzai for being impolite. Take her phone," Chengzai said to the two young men nearby.

"What do you plan to do? Rebel against me?" Mei Niang said as she looked at the two young men approaching her.

"Sorry, Mei Niang," the two young men said, then restrained Mei Niang and took her phone from her.

"Go inside," Chengzai said, then closed the office door.

Mei Niang sat angrily on the sofa, and she understood at that moment that she was just a woman. When favored, her subordinates would treat her respectfully, but when about to fall, she was nothing, and her words carried no weight. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Actually, Mei Niang was very loyal to Jinye and never intended to betray him, considering she had been coerced by Lin Mu several times before. But there was no way, Mei Niang didn’t have any opportunity to explain.

Moreover, Mei Niang was well aware of Jinye’s temper; for him, once something is done, it’s done, without needing many excuses.

At this point, Mei Niang was troubled, feeling quite desperate. While she had once been a dominant force in Zhengzhou, that was all because she was Jinye’s woman, which made others fear her. Without Jinye, she was nothing.

If Jinye watched the surveillance footage and saw she was indeed with Lin Mu, there would be no good outcome for her. Therefore, Mei Niang had to think of a way to escape, as it might be her only chance.

She thought about it but couldn’t come up with anything better. Outside was Chengzai and his men, and she couldn’t beat them. Being on the twentieth floor, lacking Lin Mu’s skills to scale walls, jumping from the window would certainly be fatal.

Just then, Chengzai’s voice came from outside the office, "Miss Fangzi, is there something you need?"

"Hello, I wanted to see Mei Niang," Yoshiko Iji said from outside.

"Sorry, Miss Fangzi, Mei Niang is busy with work inside, so it’s temporarily inconvenient," Chengzai smiled and said.

After listening, Fangzi nodded, "Alright then."

"Wait a moment."
