Rebirth of the Superpower Queen

Chapter 181 Caught off guard

Meng Zhiling thought for a while and nodded, she indeed felt that way.

"That's right, he must have had this in mind. If he only had a little money, he could have divided it equally among his children. But it's hard to find a trustworthy and suitable person to inherit his business. He's such a cautious and suspicious person, he would definitely not be at ease if he handed it over to an outsider. It's conceivable that he still regards you as a member of his Ming family." Qiao Surong pouted. He felt that this understanding was useless because he believed that blood ties could not kidnap the freedom of relatives.

"Hmph, what's the point of treating me as one of your own? The past accounts still need to be settled. But since someone is giving me money and power for free, why should I refuse?" Meng Zhiling snorted coldly, and finally said it without any backbone.

"Are you really planning to take over? I'm afraid it's not that easy and simple." Qiao Surong frowned. Although he didn't want to interfere too much with her decision, he was still worried that Meng Zhiling would take on a hot potato, which would do more harm than good.

"Aren't you and I always doing things that are not easy to do? If they are too simple, would you still be willing to do them?" Meng Zhiling blinked her eyes, leaving Qiao Surong speechless.

"Okay then. In short, be careful about everything. Also, I forgot to tell you that the Huoshu Organization has always been at odds with our Qinglong Gang. This is a historical issue." Qiao Surong looked at her with a smile, waiting for her answer.

"Haha, didn't my people have conflicts with yours before? There's nothing that can't be solved with a fight. If that doesn't work, then fight again." Meng Zhiling laughed and didn't take it seriously at all. Now, no matter what others said, she would not change her decision.

After all, she is in urgent need of enriching herself. If she doesn't want the ready-made strength, she would be a fool.

Qiao Surong was speechless again and could only look at her lovingly, watching the violent factor in her small body making her excited. He also felt that her decisiveness was perhaps something he could not even reach at times.

"Okay, now that you've made up your mind, let's go back early. I'll take you there." Qiao Surong stood up. Although he urged her to leave in a very generous manner, no one knew what he really felt in his heart.

Meng Zhiling also stood up, put her arms around his strong waist, and rubbed against his arms, "Su Rong, I love you, muah." After saying that, she left in a flash, directly rejecting his offer with her actions.

Leaving Qiao Surong alone in the room, he shook his head and finally went up to the study on the second floor.

"Why are you back so late?" Meng Zhiling returned to Ming's house. As soon as she entered the living room, the lights came on and a very serious voice sounded.

Meng Zhiling raised her eyebrows, patted her heart, and complained in her heart that Ming Shunde could easily scare timid people to death. Fortunately, she was not too timid.

"Oh, it's Qiao Surong's birthday today. I just had dinner with him and now it's here. What's wrong? Did you break the family rules again?" Meng Zhiling looked at Ming Shunde innocently, and her tone of voice was still as sharp as usual.

"What? Mr. Qiao's birthday is today? Why didn't you tell me earlier? Since we are relatives, we should get together to celebrate such an important day." Ming Shunde's reaction was unexpected.

He completely ignored Meng Zhiling's sarcasm and just focused on Qiao Surong's birthday.

Meng Zhiling spread out her hands, not wanting to explain when he and Qiao Surong became relatives. Anyway, he was self-righteous, so there was no need to explain.

"No need. He likes to keep a low profile. He's satisfied with me accompanying him." Meng Zhiling pretended to be reluctant to talk to him. In fact, she was waiting for him to speak first. After all, he was an old man who went to bed early and got up early. He waited for her until late at night. It must be for some important things, otherwise no one would think that he was worried about Meng Zhiling and waited until now.

"Oh, that's fine. I'll prepare a small gift someday and you can give it to him on my behalf." Ming Shunde said with a very understanding look. When he saw Meng Zhiling slowly walking towards him, he also extinguished the cigarette in his hand.

"Girl, how have you considered it? My time is very limited, so whether you think I am forcing you or not, you must make a decision as soon as possible." Ming Shunde locked his eyes on Meng Zhiling seriously, looking at her expectantly and anxiously.

I haven't felt this way for many years.

Meng Zhiling picked up a washed fruit on the table, smiled slightly, sat on the sofa, and had no intention of answering him so quickly.

"Mr. Ming, let's make a bet. What will be the reaction of your precious children and your wife if I make this known to the public?" Meng Zhiling pretended not to know his real purpose in wanting to inherit the throne, and smiled mysteriously.

"So you don't agree?" Ming Shunde's nervous face suddenly turned cold, and his tone was without any emotion, which made Meng Zhiling think for a moment that he wanted to kill people to silence them.

"Haha, when did I say no? I just want to say that your family is rich and powerful, aren't you afraid that other people will be jealous? If you really want me to inherit, don't cause me so much trouble and fatal disaster. I see that everyone in your Ming family has ulterior motives and is a tough guy who is not easy to mess with. I'm afraid that I will be sold out, but I'm still helping you count the money." Meng Zhiling said leisurely. Although she said this, she was not worried about such a thing at all.

Even if it existed, she was not afraid at all.

Hearing her meaningful words, Ming Shunde finally felt relieved. "Okay, it's getting late. Go get some rest. I'll take you somewhere tomorrow so we can prepare for the succession."

After Ming Shunde finished speaking, he went upstairs first, leaving Meng Zhiling alone, gritting her teeth and looking at his back.

The old fox is indeed an old fox. When did I say I was taking over? Meng Zhiling cursed the old fox in her heart while going upstairs to wash up and sleep. At the same time, she was looking forward to tomorrow's schedule. This was also her first time to come into contact with the Fire Tree Organization. Although it could not compete with the American supernatural organizations, it was valuable because of its large number of members and the wide range of areas involved. So even if its attack power was not strong, it could be regarded as one of the best intelligence networks and money-making organizations in the world.

"Heizi, accompany me to a place tomorrow. You will definitely like it. I will inform you of the specific time. By the way, bring Xiaobai with you. Let's all arrange the things on hand." Meng Zhiling called Heizi before going to bed.

Because even if she took over at that time, she thought it would be more reassuring and less laborious to let Heizi manage it. With her current multiple identities, it was not easy for her to show up. Heizi was the only one who had experience in the underworld. Although he was young and usually smiled in front of her like a silly white sweet, the hostility in him could easily scare people in the underworld.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Ming Shunde took Meng Zhiling to the airport. The private plane had already been arranged, and Heizi and Xiaobai were already waiting there.

Ming Shunde only brought his housekeeper, so the group of five, all serious and without much conversation, arrived at Sai City in Southeast Asia.

It is hotter here than in Linhai City, but this temperature does not have much impact on Meng Zhiling, Heizi and the others. Ming Shunde and the housekeeper find it a bit unbearable, after all, they have lived a comfortable life for so many years.

After getting off the plane, they took a bus directly to the countryside, crossed a dirt road, and came to the jungle. After walking for a long distance, finally, a small, not very majestic, detached villa appeared in front of them.

"Mr. Ming!" There were two people guarding the door with guns. When they saw Ming Shunde, they all pointed their guns downwards and gave a salute comparable to a military salute. Ming Shunde did not look away and walked in with Meng Zhiling and the others.

When I entered, it was not as magnificent as I had imagined. It even looked like a building that had not been completed yet. It was just a bare room, not to mention the decoration style inside.

"Sir, Miss Meng, here we are!" As soon as they walked in, a middle-aged man in a black suit came out and greeted Ming Shunde and Meng Zhiling respectfully. It seemed that Ming Shunde had told his subordinates about Meng Zhiling in advance.

Ming Shunde nodded and was led into another room by the middle-aged man.

Inside was a conference room with eight people sitting there, all dressed in suits. If someone didn't know them, they would have thought they were involved in pyramid schemes or selling insurance, as they were dressed so formally.

As soon as Ming Shunde entered, all eight of them stood up and shouted in unison, "Hello, sir!"

"Sit down, sit down. I am old now, and this is the world for you young people. Don't use all my old rules anymore." Ming Shunde waved his hand and sat on the podium first. Only then did the others dare to sit down again.

As he sat down, he said, Ming Shunde also mentioned today's topic very well.

"Zhi Ling, come here, stand up and let everyone know you." Ming Shunde went straight to the point. He must have given them a "precaution" before, so they calmly turned their attention to the petite woman who followed Ming Shunde in.

It seemed that apart from being pretty and having a calm personality, they couldn't see how capable this woman was. Or rather, they simply didn't believe that such a weak woman could manage such a large Fire Tree organization. Besides, they were generally much older than Meng Zhiling. Who could be convinced?

Today, just to give Ming Shunde face, they all came here specially.

"This is my granddaughter, Meng Zhiling. As everyone knows, my health is getting worse every year, and I have to find a successor. So from now on, I would like to ask all the bosses to take good care of my granddaughter and give her more advice." Ming Shunde did not lay the groundwork too much.

When Meng Zhiling stood up reluctantly, he began with a brief introduction and then formally announced his abdication in favor of Meng Zhiling.

All this happened so fast, like a tornado, even Meng Zhiling herself was caught off guard.
