Chapter 296 I Don't Care About Money
It was a week later when they returned safely to the capital by sea.
Jiuwan was sent directly to the police station, where Hongzhong handled the matter. Rong Changqing would absolutely not visit Jiuwan, nor would he show any leniency.
On the first day back, Rong Changqing took Lu Qianqian to the Rong family's old residence.
Some things need to be made clear.
Madam Rong sat in the main seat of the hall, flanked by Rong Zhenhua, Lu Yalan, and Rong Ziqing.
"Grandma!" Rong Changqing led Lu Qianqian by the hand and walked up to her, saying firmly, "I have handed over Qianqian's kidnapping case to the police!"
Upon hearing this, the Rong family members looked at Rong Changqing in shock.
Rong Zhenhua slammed his fist on the table in anger: "Rong Changqing, what do you mean by this? Are you siding with outsiders?"
"So what if it is?" Rong Changqing looked coldly at his father. "Even the emperor is subject to the same laws as commoners. Besides, you are not imperial relatives, so you cannot cover up the truth and disregard human life!"
"Rong Changqing, what kind of attitude is this?" Old Madam Rong looked over angrily. "Are you trying to drive me crazy?"
"Grandma, I respect you, but I also hope you can respect Qianqian." Rong Changqing held Lu Qianqian's hand tightly and said, "Locking people in shipping containers and sending them overseas like cargo, did you ever think about whether Qianqian would survive when you did that?"
At this point, there's no need to deny what you've done!
Madam Rong sneered, "A woman like that seduced you for money, can't I deal with her for you?"
"What money do I have?" Rong Changqing laughed. "In terms of status and position, if Qianqian wanted to seduce someone, she should be seducing Rong Ziqing, not me. As for wealth, Lu Yunxi, the Crown Prince, is also rich, so why doesn't Qianqian go after him? Why does she have to target me, the innocent and disreputable Second Young Master Rong?"
Lu Qianqian inwardly applauded Rong Changqing; only he could belittle her to the point of being worthless.
"You..." Old Madam Rong was speechless. Rong Changqing was right. Compared to others, he was indeed not qualified.
But even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. Rong Ershao is still the legitimate son and grandson of the Rong family. The allowance he receives alone is enough to ensure that many people will never have to worry about food and drink for a lifetime.
Besides, Lu Qianqian is a woman with a bad reputation and a bad background, not to mention so many sick people in her family!
"I've made up my mind to hand this over to the police. Whether you go to jail or have to pay compensation and apologize is your business. I'm just here to inform you!"
"Rong Changqing!" Rong Zhenhua roared, "Do you think you can do this to us?"
"I know you're not afraid of the police, Chairman Rong, but the Rong Group is about to change hands, and the acquisition is underway. If you lose your status, do you think those people will let you off the hook?"
“You…” Rong Zhenhua was furious. In the past few days, Rong’s shares had plummeted. Many material suppliers suddenly refused to supply goods for various reasons. Once the production chain was broken and goods could not be delivered, pressure would be put on them from above!
After all, the Rong family's biggest customer is the country!
Taking advantage of this situation, the world's largest bank, Huarong Bank, attempted to acquire the Rong family!
He was so busy he was completely overwhelmed!
Now his own son has brought it up to ridicule him in public, which is truly shameful!
"Rong Changqing, for a woman, you actually treated your father and grandmother like this? Don't you have any conscience at all?" Lu Yalan couldn't stand it anymore and spoke sarcastically, "Even if you hand us over to the police, does that mean you can be happy together? A marriage without the blessing of family will never be happy!"
"So Qianqian begged you not to call the police. I thought, if we don't call the police, it'll be good if you owe Qianqian a favor forever!" Rong Changqing suddenly laughed, the smile on his lips unusually sarcastic.
Lu Yalan's face turned green with anger.
She didn't want to be owed a favor, nor was she happy about it; it would be better to lock her up in jail.
Old Madam Rong was so angry she didn't want to speak, but she had no choice but to deal with the matter. She pointed at Rong Changqing and said, "Come in with me!"
"You can come in, but you must bring Qianqian with you!" Rong Changqing held her hand tightly, refusing to let go. "Who knows where you'll send Qianqian next? I almost lost my life to save her this time!"
The Rong family had no idea what had happened on the island, so they didn't take Rong Changqing's words to heart. They nodded and agreed to let Rong Changqing take Lu Qianqian with her into the study to talk alone.
After the three left, Lu Yalan asked Rong Zhenhua, "What did your mother talk to them about inside? Why did she have to avoid us?"
"It would be best if Mom were willing to handle this. I'm too lazy to worry about it. My son is all grown up and doesn't listen to me. It's a real headache." Rong Zhenhua rubbed his temples in annoyance. Company matters were already enough to bother him!
"It seems there's nothing for me here, I'll be going now." Rong Ziqing said coldly, then turned and left.
Rong Zhenhua watched his eldest son's retreating figure and sighed helplessly.
Sigh, none of them are easy to deal with.
……
Inside the study, Madam Rong looked sternly at the two of them, finally fixing her gaze on Lu Qianqian, and said coldly, "Since Changqing insists on marrying you, and Zhecheng likes you, I won't say anything more. All I need is for you to sign a waiver of property rights."
"Grandma, this is disrespectful to Qianqian!" Rong Changqing said with displeasure.
Lu Qianqian squeezed his hand tightly, then smiled brightly at him: "Why can't I do this? Second Young Master, you didn't want the Rong family's assets in the first place. Since you don't have them, it doesn't matter to me if I sign this agreement."
Madam Rong: "..."
Rong Changqing laughed out loud: "Alright then, go ahead and sign a few words."
Lu Qianqian nodded and walked confidently to the desk. Looking at the waiver in front of her, she read it once and found no word games; it was a perfectly legitimate property waiver. So she signed her name directly.
Very extravagant.
Madam Rong then withdrew her gaze and said coldly, "Changqing is a descendant of the Rong family. Even if he doesn't take over the Rong family business in the future, he will still have Rong family shares and real estate, which is a considerable sum of money."
As he spoke, he kept an eye on Lu Qianqian's expression. Seeing that she showed no regret or distress, he felt a little hesitant.
Is this person genuinely indifferent, or are they just putting on a brave face?
“Madam Rong, what you’re saying requires Chairman Rong’s approval before the Second Young Master can have these things. Before that, the Second Young Master didn’t have any Rong family assets. So the Second Young Master would be penniless and would have to rely on me to support him.”
Madam Rong was quite surprised: "You raise it?"
Lu Qianqian nodded: "Yes, I own shares in Lu's Real Estate, Zhang's Real Estate, and Rong's Catering. That's more than enough for me and the Second Young Master to live lavishly."
So she really doesn't care about that money!
Because she has plenty of money!
