Chapter 196: Chapter 195 Decisive The footage wasn’t very clear, and there was even a slight shakiness, but the two people in the video were undoubtedly the "Second Brother" and "Third Brother." In the video, "Second Brother" was smoking with a triumphant tone, "Old Wei, you four are more skilled at tampering with jadeite raw stones than I am, and you will have others to work with you. Once the deed is done, you won’t be short on benefits. At least one percent of the shares will be inescapable. Hmph, the Xiao Group has been in the hands of two women for too long, it’s time to change owners..." The video lasted for half an hour, discussing how to fake jadeite raw stones and how to harm the group. Now the truth was finally clear for all to see, and everyone was too shocked to regain their composure. Sure, there were people here who liked to take advantage, but no one had thought about taking over the entire group. Plainly speaking, the group’s assets had nothing to do with them, they were just workers, granted special treatment because of family relations. "How do you have the video? After every meeting, I checked your phones, if there were secret recordings, how could I not know?" In that moment, Second Brother’s face turned pale, but he still hadn’t given up hope, as he considered himself meticulous in his actions, yet he didn’t know when these videos had been taken. "Heh, Second Young Master, haven’t you heard of something called cloud storage?" Old Wei sneered and explained, "I recorded every meeting and then uploaded the videos to cloud storage over the internet. Once uploaded, I deleted the original video so, of course, you couldn’t find them. I did this to prevent you from crossing the river and tearing down the bridge. Today, your actions made me understand that it’s always right to keep a card up your sleeve!" Ignorance kills, Lin Tian couldn’t help but sigh. Knowledge is power, and power is a weapon, and if it’s a weapon, it can certainly be used against people. "Second Brother, Third Brother, do you have anything else to say?" Mrs. Xiao asked expressionlessly. "At this point, more words are useless. Just lay out what you want to do clearly!" The two knew the situation was beyond salvageable, their expressions turning cold and indifferent. "All positions within the group revoked, and from now on you shall not take a penny from the group! You are also forbidden from seeking benefits in the name of the group," Mrs. Xiao’s words were met with an indifferent gaze from the two men, but she didn’t care and continued, "You must hand over all recent illicit income! As for your previous actions, for the sake of you having families to care for, I will not pursue them." "What!" This time the two couldn’t keep their composure. They were disdainful just now because they had colluded with the Bai Family recently and reaped quite a few benefits. Even if they were driven out of the Xiao Family, they could still live luxuriously, especially with the Bai Family as their backer. But now that Mrs. Xiao was demanding they return the money, it was undoubtedly pulling the rug out from under them, practically taking their lives. The whole reason they did those things was for money, but if even this money was reclaimed, how would they maintain a high-quality, pleasure-filled existence? "You heard me correctly, all recent improper income must be turned over to the group; it doesn’t belong to you!" Mrs. Xiao said coldly. "By what right! That’s our money, why should we hand it over! Don’t even dream about it!" Second Brother exclaimed with agitation, pointing rudely at Mrs. Xiao. Money was the most important thing to them. Since they could betray the Xiao Group for money, a lack of respect for Mrs. Xiao at this point was inconsequential. Mrs. Xiao was unfazed by their disrespect, and she scoffed, "Your money? It’s the money the Bai Family gave you for selling out the Xiao Group you dare call your own, huh? Even now, you still want to cling to the money; you two are beyond redemption!" "Sister-in-law, don’t be too ruthless. Leave some room for maneuver so we can still face each other in the future." The third brother was of the same disposition, simply not willing to part with the money. "Third brother, don’t bother talking to her. The money is already in our hands. Sister-in-law, I still call you that out of respect for my elder brother. Otherwise, just because you’re a woman in charge of the Xiao Group, I don’t accept it! Hmph, you want to take back the money? Go on, try it. I’ve already transferred it to an overseas bank. If you can, go get it, hahaha..." The second brother knew he couldn’t stay with the Xiao Family any longer, so he threw caution to the wind and spoke arrogantly. The two old geezers were so arrogant, daring to talk like that in front of the family. They wouldn’t know their limits unless they were given a beating. Lin Tian chuckled and gave the one who was laughing a slap across the face. With a "smack," the "Second Young Master" rolled onto the ground, his face bearing a red handprint, which swelled up in the blink of an eye. Lin Tian stepped on him, pressing him directly to the ground. "How does that feel? Painful? It should be. Heh, dare to be disrespectful to Mrs. Xiao, I’ll teach you what manners are!" Lin Tian stepped on his chest, applying pressure neither too light nor too heavy, making it hard for him to breathe. Although he was in so much pain that he felt like dying, he couldn’t utter a sound. It felt as though a thousand-pound boulder was pressing on his chest, silencing him. However, the Xiao women were caught between laughter and tears by Lin Tian’s antics. Talking about teaching others manners while being so rough and foul-mouthed? Could that be considered a teaching moment? Only Xiao Manxuan was cheering inside, almost jumping up to give Lin Tian a round of applause. Xiao Manxue went up to pull Lin Tian away. Everyone thought she was trying to break up the fight, but Lin Tian could tell that the force in her hands was off. Instead of pulling him away, she was pressing down. Lin Tian felt his foot get heavier, the pressure on the "Second Young Master" increased instantly. "Cough cough..." He felt the air in his lungs being pressed out, his head spinning, coughing non-stop. He whimpered in discomfort, "Let go, let go quickly, someone’s going to die!" Lin Tian ignored him but gave the Miss a thumbs up. The Miss knew how to fight too. "Lin Tian, let him go first, let me talk to him," Mrs. Xiao said. When the lady of the house spoke, Lin Tian temporarily spared him. "Second Young Master, you think just because you transferred the money overseas, you’re safe? Let me tell you, if you don’t hand over the money willingly, I’ll hand you over to the police. You’re guilty of economic crime, and you won’t get away with less than a decade in prison. Weigh your options. Ten or twenty years later, when you get out, how many decades will you have left in your life? The earth will be buried up to your waist; will anything still matter then?" Mrs. Xiao said calmly. Her words struck like thunder in their ears, completely unexpected that their own sister-in-law would play such a merciless card. They had always seen her as a capable and courageous businesswoman. But she had always been lacking in ruthlessness and treated her enemies with propriety and morality, never cruelly. It was precisely because of this that the two of them dared to collude so brazenly with the Bai Family, believing that even if their schemes were exposed, they could still take the money and run. But today, Mrs. Xiao’s words were more decisive than ever, even threatening to send them to jail. "Sister-in-law, you’re ruthless. We’re willing to hand over the money!" They both instantly became disheartened. "Who said anything about you handing over money? Did you even ask me?" An elderly voice suddenly came from outside the door.
