Chapter 770: Abusing Authority

Translator: Vesper

Ning Meng Yao raised her head and smiled at Qiao Tian Chang, the smile on her face was bright: “I know, I’m thinking too much about this.”

“Oh, you, haven’t you noticed, you’ve changed a lot after having Shang’er?” Qiao Tian Chang reached out and pinched Ning Meng Yao’s face, his eyes full of helplessness.

Ning Meng Yao was stunned. It was clear that she did not think of it before and she stared at Qiao Tian Chang blankly: “Really?”

“Yes, Yao Yao, you lock Chen Qi up, will his family come here to make trouble?” After all, Chen Qi had to go back every day, and he had a wife at home.

Ning Meng Yao frowned. She thought for a while, and then said: “Let Qing Huai go and tell them that there are many things to do in the workshop, so he won’t be going back for the time being.”

“This will do.”

The two talked while walking outside.

Chen Qi, who was locked up, looked at everything around him, and there was some fear in his heart. Would he never be able to leave this place?

“Let me go, you can’t abuse your authority.” Chen Qi kept banging on the door and shouting loudly.

The person guarding outside knocked on the door impatiently when he heard his words: “What are you being noisy about? Abuse of authority? Have we done something to you?”

They were just locking him up. Was this abusing authority?

Chen Qi fell to the ground. He was right. They did not beat him, and neither did they do anything cruel to him. They were only locking him up. How could it be regarded as an abuse of authority?

Covering his face with his hand, Chen Qi forced himself to calm down. He thought about the whole thing, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn’t find a way to let him leave this place.

And he couldn’t communicate with the outside now, even if there was a way to send messages out, he didn’t know if his family would worry about him.

Qing Huai went to Chen Qi’s house according to Ning Meng Yao’s instructions.

After going to Chen Qi’s house, Qing Huai suddenly understood why Chen Qi turned out the way he was.

Having such an indifferent old lady, a wife who was only interested in money, and some narrow-minded people who only knew how to take advantage of others.

Even if Chen Qi was a good person, he would eventually be corrupted by these people.

This time, when Qing Huai went to Chen Qi’s house, they demanded money from him.

Taking the money was not enough. Some even asked why nothing from the workshop was brought back this time. And Chen Qi’s mother actually called him a waste for giving so little.

This kind of treatment made Qing Huai not interested in staying. He only said a little and turned away without returning.

Chen Qi’s wife chased from behind, but failed to catch up. All Qing Huai could hear was her scolding Chen Qi for being useless.

Chen Qi didn’t bother to listen further and he quickly left Chen family’s village and returned to White Mountain Village. Qing Huai found Ning Meng Yao and told Ning Meng Yao about the Chen Qi’s family.

Ning Meng Yao’s eyes narrowed slightly, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: “Is that so? Let Chen Qi know and see what he thinks.”

His family, who he had been filial and loyal to all the time, said that about him. Who knew what expression Chen Qi would have after listening.

Or was he already numb from it.

“Miss, what do you want to do?”

“I just want Chen Qi to see clearly what his family thinks of him.” Ning Meng Yao smiled coldly.

Aside from Chen Qi’s greed for her money, Chen Qi was actually a very responsible and talented person. It was a pity to discard him just like that.

If Chen Qi could sever ties with his family, it was not impossible for him to stay with them.

“I understand, Miss. I will do so immediately.” Qing Huai turned and left.

Coming to the place where Chen Qi was held, Qing Huai looked at the person on the edge: “How is he doing?”

“He was noisy at the beginning, but he’s gone quiet now.”

Chen Qi had probably given up and didn’t continue to make trouble.
