Wanjin Lady

Chapter 147 Acting Domineeringly
"Master Zhang, the boss has treated you very well! How can you repay kindness with hatred?!"

"You were capable of doing such a vicious thing as setting fire to the winery! Have you ever considered that the guys were sleeping in the backyard of the winery that night? If it weren't for Brother Shuigen getting up at night, we would all have burned to death!"

"Damn it! This old guy wants to burn me to death! What an ungrateful, white-eyed wolf!"

"That's right! He's been gone for so long, and yet he still has the key hanging on him. It shows how ambitious he is!"

Zhang Jiping's skinny body trembled, the corners of his tightly pursed lips trembled slightly, and his upper eyelids drooped, covering his cloudy, yellow pupils. "Unjust!"

"Young Master...how can you convict me based on just half a footprint! I have no grudge against the winery, why would you burn it down?" Zhang Jiping looked around, held his breath, and his voice was choked with sobs.

"And you guys, you're all the guys I brought up. Even if we're not officially master and apprentice, we're still half-master and half-friend! Am I crazy? Do I want to burn you all to death?"

Sure enough, that one sentence made the guys look shaken.

He pounded his chest again, nearly bursting into tears, "God can bear witness, I... Zhang Jiping... was wronged..."

Zhang Jiping was about to howl a few more times, but Wenwan's cold and ruthless voice interrupted him.

"Master Zhang, there's no need for you to sing with such eloquence. This is a winery, not a Southern Opera troupe. If you want to sing opera, you can go to troupe leader Liu."

"You..." Zhang Jiping's nose was crooked with anger.

"Zhang Jiping, considering you've been the Wen family's master chef for over a decade, I gave you the chance to confess. You didn't cherish it, so you can't blame me for being heartless."

Zhang Jiping's breathing became irregular, his pupils shrank slightly, and his hands hidden in his sleeves trembled slightly.

Wen Wan pulled out a piece of paper from her bosom. It was covered in dense writing. She waved it in front of everyone, then her sharp gaze fell back on Zhang Jiping's face. "Did you think I would be caught unprepared tonight? Now that you're here, don't even think about leaving!"

The girl's voice was cold, her eyes brighter than the torches. "Before leaving, Yuan Liulang already told me about your conspiracy with him to seize my winery. He even confessed everything about how he ordered you to burn it down. It's all written down in black and white!"

Wen Wan quickly rolled up the paper and shouted coldly, "Since you refuse to admit it, I will have no choice but to present these two pieces of evidence to the authorities and ask Magistrate Wang to determine who is loyal and who is treacherous! Come, arrest Zhang Jiping and we will take him to the authorities tonight!"

Zhang Jiping was immediately frightened and sat down on the ground in despair.

His mind was in a daze, and he had no time to carefully read the so-called letter left by Yuan Liulang in Wen Wan's hand, let alone think about why Yuan Liulang left such a big loophole before leaving!
The young woman gradually approached, pressing him aggressively, not giving him a chance to breathe. "If you speak now, our matter will be private! If you insist on not speaking, then expect to spend the rest of your life in prison and be disgraced!"

"I admit it! I admit it!"

Zhang Jiping's defenses were completely breached, and he almost crawled over crying to grab the corner of Wen Wan's clothes, "Young Master... I was possessed by a demon... Blame it on Yuan Liulang! He said that as long as I set a fire in the backyard of the winery, it would scare you off! I was very cautious and lit the fire far away from the backyard. I... I just wanted to... climb up the Cheng family's high branch. How could I have the courage to steal money and kill people!"

"Besides... weren't there any casualties that night? If I really meant to set fire and kill people, why are you still standing here?"

Feng Shuigen was furious. He was young and hot-tempered, so he raised his foot and kicked Zhang Jiping in the heart. Zhang Jiping fell heavily backwards and hit the bluestone slab hard.

"Bullshit! If it weren't for me that night, all those dozen brothers in the winery would have been burned to death! You serve the boss's bowls and eat the boss's food, and then Yuan Liulang beckons you to pledge your allegiance like a dog! You used to be the master chef of the winery, but I look down on you!"

Ma Changshun quickly grabbed Feng Shuigen. He was not worried about anything else, but was only worried that Zhang Jiping was sixty years old. If Feng Shuigen accidentally killed him, then even if he was right, he would become wrong!

Wen Wan stopped Feng Shuigen.

She walked slowly to Zhang Jiping, her clothes were cold, just like the woman's eyes.

"What benefit did Yuan Liulang promise you that would warrant your loyalty to him?"

Zhang Jiping lowered his head in shame. "He said... as long as he gets the Wen family's winery, he'll hire me as the head chef, with the same treatment as before... I... I was just... bewitched... I don't know what happened to me..." "Good. It's good that you admit it."

After saying that, the yellow paper fell lightly onto the bluestone slab. Under the dim firelight, Zhang Jiping saw the words "The sky and the earth are dark yellow, the universe is vast and boundless; the sun and the moon are waxing and waning, and the stars are lined up" on it, and his pupils suddenly dilated!

This is not a confession letter written by Yuan Liulang to Wen Wan!

It is clearly a handwritten copy of "Thousand Character Classic"!

It was pitch dark just now, and he could only see densely packed words. How could he have the time to think carefully?!

"Bitch...you tricked me!" Zhang Jiping's eyes were bloodshot as he was about to pounce on Wen Wan. Wen Wan leaned back slightly, her clothes fluttering in the wind. "Second Master Tu, hold him down!"

Tu Erye and Feng Shuigen immediately pressed Zhang Jiping from the left and right!
"Zhang Jiping, you colluded with outsiders to betray your former master, robbed my winery, and set it on fire! Even if the heavens can forgive you today, I, Wen Wan, cannot!"

A delicate cry came out, "Master Tu!"

The woman was thin. She stood on the steps, surrounded by people. She was dressed in dark, had black hair, and her facial features were sharp!

When he opened his eyes, his gaze was as sharp as a cold knife!

"Cut off two of his fingers! I'll make sure he never steals or does anything else again—"

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone in the hall was shocked!
No one could have imagined that the young master who looked delicate and easy to talk to in the past... would be so cruel and ruthless today!

Ma Changshun's eyelids twitched, and he was about to open his mouth to beg for mercy, but suddenly a cold light flashed before his eyes, and Master Tu's knife was faster than his steps!
Master Tu drew his sword!

A flash!
He swung his arms in a circle and threw them into the air with a decisive and decisive move!
The night was cut open by a sharp blade!

A line of blood appeared in the void, followed by Zhang Jiping's shrill scream!

Wen Wan took half a step back, and Zhang Jiping's blood...dripping...on the place where she had just stood, blooming into a bunch of bright red flowers.

Before everyone could react, when they opened their eyes, Zhang Jiping was already covering his fingers and screaming in pain, with blood constantly oozing out from between his fingers. He fell to the ground and was about to curse, but he saw Wen Wan's cruel yet calm eyes under the firelight.

The young lady stood in the firelight, her whole body surrounded by the hazy firelight, her eyes were frighteningly black, and she just stared at you straight and coldly.

Three people appeared behind her.

Wen Weiming, Zhu Wang, and Captain Zhang from the county government office.

The three of them hid in the darkness and listened at the foot of the wall for who knows how long!
No... all of this... was clearly carefully planned by Wen Wan!

From registering shoe sizes, to Hongmei deliberately coming to his house to leak the news, to now catching him in a trap! One thing after another, Zhang Jiping was completely trapped!

All of Zhang Jiping's voice...was stuck in his throat!

The captain came out from behind the screen and said in an annoyed voice, "Manager Wen, you are too..."

A bit overbearing.

However, Captain Zhang...did not say this in the end.
