Chapter 373: Chapter 373: Differences in Ideology

Qiao Rui slightly furrowed her brows and looked at him. "What’s wrong with investing too much?"

Pei Liyan said, "If you invest too much, Elder Qiao might not let you leave, and by then, you’ll have to bear the responsibility of the entire Qiao Family."

Qiao Rui raised her eyebrows, her lively eyes blinking as she looked at Pei Liyan, "Are you worried I’ll get too busy?"

She was just that smart, always able to see through others’ thoughts instantly.

As his wife, he wouldn’t want to see her too busy.

Pei Liyan nodded slightly. "Yes, I’m worried about you being busy."

"Isn’t that a good thing?" Qiao Rui retorted. "When you’re busy, you have things to do and won’t cause unnecessary trouble."

"I’m afraid you’ll exhaust yourself," he said.

"I think you’re afraid I’ll grow the business so large that you men won’t have a place to show off," Qiao Rui teased, "Am I right?"

"You figured it out!" Pei Liyan chuckled, "I do feel that if you really go for it, there might not be a place for us men."

"Thanks, Mr. Pei, for thinking so highly of me," Qiao Rui said cheerfully, "Okay, go back now. I need to continue inspecting the project."

"Wait until it’s confirmed there are no crocodiles in the water," Pei Liyan still felt it was a bit risky.

Qiao Rui burst out laughing. "You’re right, my uncle should be very happy to see the crocodiles delivered to his home."

Pei Liyan was taken aback and then laughed along, "You’re being mischievous again."

Meanwhile, at Qiao Junxian’s home.

He was very proud, thinking that today as long as something happened in the reservoir, no matter the incident, and whether it involved Qiao Rui herself or not, it’ll affect her.

If anything goes wrong, he can use the incident to make a comeback, and his return to power is within sight.

But what Qiao Junxian never expected was that Gai Yin actually brought people and delivered two crocodiles to his house.

Two crocodiles over two meters long were now lying in the living room, and their slightest movement frightened people into screaming.

Lin Hailan was almost scared to faint.

"What... what on earth is going on? Call the police."

She shouted to call the police.

But Qiao Junxian shouted, "No calling the police."

Lin Hailan was puzzled. "We’ve been bullied right at our doorstep, and you won’t call the police, what on earth are you trying to do?"

Qiao Junxian’s face was very somber, he glanced at his wife, and with a look in his eyes, stopped her. Lin Hailan also seemed to realize something and didn’t dare speak further.

Only then did Qiao Junxian look at Gai Yin.

He spoke in a deep voice, "What do you mean by this?"

"Mr. Qiao should clearly understand what this means," Gai Yin said with a faint smile.

"I really don’t understand your meaning," Qiao Junxian said coldly, "This is simply ridiculous."

"President Qiao, we delivered the crocodiles here because we have evidence proving that the owner of these crocodiles is you, Mr. Qiao," Gai Yin was not polite to Qiao Junxian either.

This old fellow came up with such a disgusting plan, wanting to create an incident to harm the Young Master.

Today, if something really happened to anyone, it would be a devastating blow to that family.

He was willing to harm others for his own selfish desires, truly stopping at nothing.

Of course, Qiao Junxian denied it. "You should present evidence before saying anything, and get those crocodiles out of here."

Gai Yin chuckled, suddenly took out a photo, and threw it to him.

Qiao Junxian was stunned for a moment, seeing in the photo a group photo of himself with someone, and that someone was the person who raised the crocodiles.

He was dumbfounded for a moment and still denied, "You casually pull out a photo, wanting to frame me, you’re too casual, a photo proves nothing."

"A single photo might not prove much," Gai Yin said again in a deep voice, "but next, the police will come for you. Illegally releasing crocodiles into the reservoir is against the law, so you better explain to the police!"

As he spoke, the police arrived.

"Qiao Junxian, you’re suspected of randomly releasing wild animals and endangering the ecosystem, come with us."

"I didn’t do it." The moment Qiao Junxian saw the police, it was as if he was struck by lightning, his face instantly turned pale.

A fear and panic never felt before showed on his face.

He shook his head, "I didn’t do it, you’ve got the wrong person."

"Yes, you’ve got the wrong person." Seeing her husband’s fearful look, Lin Hailan also woke up and quickly tried to stop them.

"Ms. Lin Hailan, if you continue to block us, you’ll be suspected of obstructing justice," the police said in a deep voice.

Lin Hailan froze and did not dare to move forward.

Qiao Junxian was taken away by the police.

And the two crocodiles were quickly taken away by the forestry department, returning to their rightful place.

Gai Yin also returned to report.

The water management department sent people to patrol the reservoir, searching for crocodiles.

At noon, Qiao Rui received a call from Elder Qiao.

"Did you get your uncle in trouble?" Elder Qiao said.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Rui was not very happy, "Grandpa, people weren’t put in trouble by me, it’s his own fault."

Elder Qiao pondered for a moment, then said, "There’s not much difference."

"Grandpa, there’s certainly a difference," Qiao Rui said in a deep voice, "You should be glad those two crocodiles didn’t bite anyone, otherwise, compensation wouldn’t be so simple, and the entire water project might be indefinitely postponed."

"Grandpa believes in your ability," Elder Qiao said, "But in whatever you do, you must consider maintaining the honor of our Qiao Family."

"This time, it’s no big deal, but if we don’t do something, next time it might be more serious. Crimes start with small matters."

Elder Qiao sighed slightly, "Don’t you understand what I mean?"

"It’s you who doesn’t understand my meaning, Grandpa," Qiao Rui said sternly, "I didn’t fail to preserve the Qiao Family’s honor. All crimes should be nipped in the bud; only then can the Qiao Family’s honor be truly maintained. Otherwise, if everything inside is rotten, who are we fooling?"

Elder Qiao knew he couldn’t argue with Qiao Rui, furrowed his brows, and said nothing for a while.

Admittedly, Qiao Rui had a point.

But he personally didn’t want to make a fuss.

Perhaps because of this, the Qiao Family has reached its current state.

"Grandpa," Qiao Rui said earnestly, "Since I’ve taken over as President of the Qiao Family, and want to do the project well, keep out of my handling methods, or you’ll have to clean up this mess yourself."

"Why is this girl threatening me?" Elder Qiao said, "I know what you mean, I didn’t say you did wrong, I just thought we should still consider the bigger picture."

"I’ve already considered the bigger picture," Qiao Rui said, "I haven’t taken drastic measures, already violating my principles, so don’t say any more, Grandpa. Qiao Junxian is just detained, but a few days of detention for someone used to luxury is an education."
