She wore an elegant gown that perfectly accentuated her voluptuous and alluring figure.
There was no hostility on her face; instead, she wore a gentle, serene smile.
"This...this is the mastermind behind it all?"
Zhang Chulan swallowed hard, screaming inwardly.
If I hadn't known the inside story beforehand...
Even a seasoned veteran like him would definitely think this woman is a goddess!
Qu Tong walked into the private room, ignoring Zhang Chulan's wary gaze.
She walked naturally to Zhang Tianyi's sofa.
Then, to Zhang Chulan's incredulous gaze...
She actually bowed deeply to Zhang Tianyi, who was slumped on the sofa.
"Junior Yaoxing Society Qu Tong."
Qu Tong's voice is gentle, like a spring breeze:
"I have long admired the name of the Celestial Pivot Immortal. Today I am finally fortunate enough to see his divine countenance."
She straightened up slightly and respectfully handed over the long sandalwood box she was carrying.
His gaze fell on Chen Duo, who was sitting next to Zhang Tianyi, and his smile grew even more loving:
"I heard that you recently gained a fine disciple. I came in a hurry, so I have prepared a small gift."
"This is a century-old wild ginseng from Changbai Mountain, and a set of warm jade ice needles used by the imperial court in the previous dynasty. It is most suitable for regulating a girl's blood and meridians."
"I hope that the real person and Sister Chen Duo will not find it offensive."
His attitude was respectful, his manners impeccable, and even the gifts he gave perfectly matched Chen Duo's needs.
Zhang Chulan stood aside, looking at the woman, and felt a chill run down his spine.
This woman... her mental fortitude is terrifyingly strong!
She knew it was a trap, and she knew Zhang Tianyi could slap her to death at any moment.
She actually dared to go to the meeting alone, and performed so flawlessly!
Zhang Tianyi did not immediately take the box.
He looked Qu Tong up and down without any hesitation.
I watched it for a full half minute.
Just when Zhang Chulan thought Qu Tong's smile was about to fade.
"Ah……"
Zhang Tianyi suddenly let out a soft laugh.
He accepted the gift and casually tossed it onto the coffee table.
"President Qu, you're too kind."
He looked at Qu Tong's flawless and beautiful face, and the smile on his lips became extremely meaningful.
"I've long heard that the head of the Yaoxing Society, Mr. Qu, is a great philanthropist with a heart for the world."
Zhang Tianyi's voice was low and deep as he spoke, enunciating each word clearly:
"Today's meeting..."
"President Qu is indeed a great philanthropist. Not only is he skilled at charity..."
Zhang Tianyi's gaze suddenly sharpened like a knife, piercing straight into Qu Tong's eyes:
"That's some nerve..."
"It's surprisingly big."
Qu Tong's pupils suddenly contracted.
But the next second, she regained her gentle smile.
She seemed completely oblivious to the underlying meaning in Zhang Tianyi's words, and bowed slightly again:
"You flatter me, sir. I was just doing what I could."
"The conference is about to begin. My seat is in the first row, so I won't disturb your meditation any longer. I'll come back to learn from you later if I have the chance."
After saying that, Qu Tong walked gracefully out of the private room in her high heels.
They even thoughtfully and gently closed the door.
"Click".
The door closed.
Zhang Chulan let out a long sigh of relief, plopped down on the sofa next to him, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Oh my God……"
Zhang Chulan looked at the door with lingering fear:
"Master...this woman is a monster, isn't she?!"
"Her mental fortitude, her acting skills... I feel like she's as pure as a white lotus. If you hadn't told me beforehand, I would have really doubted whether we arrested the wrong person!"
Zhang Tianyi leaned back on the sofa, looked at the sandalwood box on the coffee table, and scoffed disdainfully.
"Pure?"
Zhang Tianyi said coldly:
"This kind of person, when she gets ruthless, can even temporarily modify and hypnotize her own subconscious!"
"hiss!"
Zhang Chulan gasped, "He even deceives himself?! This guy is ruthless!"
"Now that the advisor is here, when... should we make our move?"
Zhang Chulan made a capture gesture.
Chapter 134 The Birth of a Drama Queen, the Trial Session Officially Begins!
First floor, the first row of VIP seats in the inner area.
Qu Tong walked over with a composed gait, wearing elegant high heels.
Upon seeing her, the company executives and prominent figures who had been talking in hushed tones all broke into warm smiles.
"Oh, President Qu! You've finally arrived!"
"I heard you just flew back from doing charity work in Africa? You must be exhausted. It's a great blessing for the world of supernatural beings to have such a selfless role model like you!"
Faced with these flattering remarks, Qu Tong smiled and nodded in return.
That smile was even more dignified and graceful than that of a news anchor on CCTV, and it was like a gentle breeze.
She walked to her seat, which was right next to Zhao Fangxu, the chairman of Nadutong.
"Chairman Zhao, you don't look too well today? Have you been overworking lately?" Qu Tong asked softly with concern.
Zhao Fangxu was wiping his sweat with a handkerchief, worried that the ancestor upstairs might suddenly throw a thunderbolt down.
Hearing Qu Tong's words, Zhao Fangxu chuckled twice: "Hehe, yes, it's too hot, too hot. President Qu, please have a seat."
Zhao Fangxu thought to himself: How could I not be nervous? There's a living Yama sitting upstairs, and next to me is this unfathomable woman with a deep and unpredictable mind.
These leather seats in the first row are burning hot!
"when!"
Inside the venue, a deep, resonant gong sounded, interrupting the pleasantries of the crowd.
The once noisy Wukesong Arena instantly fell silent.
All eyes turned to the huge, temporarily erected platform in the very center.
"Bring in a serious criminal, Ma Xianhong!"
With a loud shout.
The gate to the passage behind the platform slowly opened.
Immediately following was a piercing metallic scraping sound.
Ma Xianhong was escorted out by four fully armed company employees.
Upon seeing Ma Xianhong's appearance, many people in the audience couldn't help but gasp, and some even almost burst out laughing.
This is hardly the escorting of a serious criminal!
This is clearly a bundle of hairy crabs!
To prevent this master craftsman from casually conjuring up some magical artifact.
Ma Xianhong was not only bound by the best Qi-devouring shackles on his hands and feet, but also had a restraint collar around his neck.
Even his ten fingers were individually fitted into metal sleeves and held in place.
His whole body made a clanging sound when he walked, just like a newly unearthed bronze terracotta warrior.
"Wow, their defenses are really thorough!"
Sitting in the back row, Wang Zhenqiu cracked sunflower seeds while complaining to the man next to him with a black pipe:
"With this level of protection, he'd have to report to his superiors even if he wanted to pick his nose, right?"
It's clear that temporary workers also came to join in the fun.
Ma Xianhong was escorted to the judge's chair in the center of the platform and forced to sit down.
His hair was disheveled, and his eyes were somewhat vacant, like a soulless shell.
He ignored the thousands of curious or greedy eyes staring at him from below the stage.
Just then.
