What to Do When Someone Steals Your Destiny? I'll Just Kill Her-Chapter 28: The Dark Side

Yaxing Group

The assistant pushed open the door of the general manager's office.

"Mr. Kong, there is something I need to report to you. The two sets of jewelry you bid on at the auction this afternoon are fermenting online."

The assistant handed the hot news page to him for review.

After reading it, Kong Liji was furious.

"Who leaked it out?"

The assistant was stunned, not expecting the general manager to react so strongly.

This was not negative news, but rather beneficial for the group.

"Find a way to take it down."

Kong Liji was annoyed in his heart.

This report undoubtedly disrupted all his plans.

He had originally intended to give the set of rubies worth over 20 million to Ren Suya, and the other set of jewelry worth over 90 million, under the pretext of establishing foreign relations, would be given to Ruan Fengru, reasonably transferring the money out.

With this report coming out, it would be very risky for him to implement his plan again.

Just as the dissatisfied Kong Liji returned home, he was greeted with a hug.

Ren Ran happily said, "Thank you, Dad."

Kong Liji was stunned. He peeled his daughter off and asked, "Thank me for what?"

"Dad, don't keep it from me anymore. I already know. You bid on two sets of jewelry at the auction. One set was for Mom, and the other set was for me, right? My classmates all know about it now."

Ren Ran noticed her father's slightly changed expression, but pretended not to see it, and continued to chatter away, "Dad, you've never given me such an expensive gift before."

The last sentence was like a muffled blow that instantly sobered him from his anger.

Kong Liji endured the sting and said with a smile, "The ruby set is for you."

"Thank you, Dad. I knew you were the best."

Ren Suya's urging voice came from inside the house.

"What are you two standing at the door chattering about? Come in quickly."

The two happily walked into the house. Ren Ran whispered, "Mom saw the news and is in a very good mood today. Shouldn't you praise me a little?"

"Little sly girl!" Kong Liji lightly tapped her forehead with his finger, doting on her.

Ren Ran chuckled.

These past few days, Ren Ran was in high spirits in her class, and everyone knew that her father had spent a fortune to buy jewelry worth hundreds of millions for her and her mother.

This situation was the result of Ren Ran's acquiescence.

She would pay attention to Kong Lian's changes every day, watching her look worse day by day, and calculating that it was time to deliver the final blow.

And this opportunity lay with Guo Tongwen.

Ren Ran had just come out of Teacher Zhao's office when she saw Guo Tongwen waiting at the door.

"The investigation results came out, right?" Guo Tongwen had been concerned about this matter.

Ren Ran nodded.

She looked around, "This is not the place to talk."

"Okay." Guo Tongwen nodded.

The two went one after the other to the small grove behind the teaching building.

"Who was it?"

Ren Ran deliberated and said, "You might not believe it if I tell you this result."

"I believe you." Guo Tongwen said firmly.

"From the fingerprints extracted above, there were only two people's complete fingerprints. Apart from the two banknotes that Teacher Zhao touched, only Tan Jia's complete fingerprints were extracted from the rest of the banknotes."

"What...what does that mean?" Guo Tongwen didn't react for a moment.

"Maybe the person who framed you was wearing gloves, so only Tan Jia's fingerprints were left," Ren Ran explained.

Guo Tongwen was stunned for several seconds before it sank in.

"Do you think it's possible?" Guo Tongwen sneered.

She thought of what Tan Jia had said when she mentioned calling the police that day, and she sneered even more in her heart.

Ren Ran shrugged, "This... hard to say."

Apart from Teacher Zhao, they had only extracted Tan Jia's fingerprints from above, and Ren Ran was telling the truth without lying, being completely truthful with both the teacher and Guo Tongwen. She did not mention Kong Lian at all.

Exposing Kong Lian now would allow her to see Kong Lian get into trouble in the short term, but from the perspective of long-term planning, this little gain was not enough for her to do so.

"Have you ever offended Tan Jia?" Ren Ran asked curiously.

"No!" Guo Tongwen wanted to flatly deny it.

"Then it's strange."

Not only was it strange to Ren Ran, but she also felt it was strange herself. Although her relationship with Tan Jia was not great, it was not to the point of framing her.

Ren Ran went on, "A person wouldn't do this for no reason, there must be some purpose behind it. Just like in TV shows, for example, she wanted to achieve something by framing you. Or someone else instructed her to do it, and so on, there are possibilities."

Guo Tongwen kept nodding, taking in her words.

"I'll go ask Tan Jia to get to the bottom of this."

Ren Ran stopped her, "Don't be impulsive! It would be better to ask privately. Teacher Zhao doesn't want to blow up this matter. He wants to give the other party a chance to mend their ways. But I don't think you'll get much out of asking. After all, only her fingerprints being extracted is not enough to convict her. If you want to find out who it was, you still need to..."

Guo Tongwen understood what she meant. "Don't worry, I'll find a way to get it out of her."

During lunch break, Ren Ran saw Guo Tongwen calling Tan Jia away.

It was the same small grove behind the building at noon, and the same two people, but the atmosphere was not as harmonious as before, filled with tension and oppression.

"What did you want to see me for?" Tan Jia pretended to be calm and asked.

Guo Tongwen looked at her with a smile, "Tan Jia, I didn't offend you, right?"

"No."

"I didn't offend you, but why did you want to ruin me?" Her expression turned cold.

Tan Jia's heart tightened. "What do you mean?"

"You're still pretending at this point? Does that make any sense?"

"I don't know what you're talking about. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

Tan Jia turned to leave. How could Guo Tongwen give her a chance? She grabbed Tan Jia's arm with such force that she almost pulled her down.

"We haven't finished talking, and you want to leave?"

"Let go of me." Tan Jia couldn't break free. She stopped and glared at her furiously, "What exactly do you want to do?"

"I should be asking you, what do you want to do? The results are out. Don't you have anything you want to say to me? I just want to know, why did you frame me?"

"I didn't."

She still wanted to leave. This time Guo Tongwen didn't stop her, but said faintly behind her, "If you dare to leave, I'll tell everyone about this immediately. I'm going to make you unable to stay in this school. Even if you transfer, I'll still go after you to whichever school you transfer to and spread the word about your glorious deeds."

Tan Jia whipped around, eyes wide open, looking at her as if looking at a madman. "You think that if you say it, others will believe you? Do you have any proof?"

"Proof? Don't worry about that. Do you think I can't do what you did?" Guo Tongwen had her arms akimbo, full of confidence. "You did the first move, don't blame me for retaliating. I, Guo Tongwen, keep my word. If you don't believe me, let's wait and see."

"You..."

Guo Tongwen went on, "Are you doing this for someone else? Think it through carefully before you answer."

"I didn't. I just don't like you."

This undoubtedly told her that someone was behind her.

Guo Tongwen laughed. "Tan Jia, don't treat everyone as a fool! Things I can guess, do you think she can't guess it too?"

"What...what do you mean?" Tan Jia finally panicked.
