Ning Yan looked at her sister-in-law, who also looked guilty. She was also bad at studying and would get sleepy as soon as she saw words in a book. It was probably impossible for her to improve herself in this lifetime.

Ning Yan sighed. With her brother like that, even if she wanted to promote him, he didn't have the ability. Oh well, he should just stick to his job of screwing.

Fortunately, once the electronics factory is acquired, my older brother and sister-in-law will be working in their own company. While other aspects may not be ideal, their salaries can still be improved.

...

Frank never imagined that the woman could disappear despite being heavily guarded by his men.

He immediately checked all flight information to domestic destinations, and thankfully, she hadn't booked any tickets.

I checked on Kane's side and found that everything was normal there.

The monitoring room only saw her climb over the back wall of the courtyard; it was confirmed that she left on her own.

We haven't been able to find out where they went or if anyone was there to meet them.

Frank investigated personally, but unfortunately, Ning Yan had already deleted all the nearby surveillance footage. Apart from the car she drove into the city, she hadn't left any clues.

Frank was furious!

Damn woman! He tolerated her slapping him, tolerated the scars she left on him, and even wanted to give her a grand wedding, but she left him without any mercy!

Once he's done with this busy period, he'll definitely bring her back and lock her in his room so she can't leave his side for even a moment!

As a result, the two tribesmen he captured were in a terrible predicament. He had intended to give them a quick death, but now they were truly in a state of wishing for death but unable to live.

Enraged, Frank personally carried out the executions, using a sharp dagger to slice off pieces of flesh from their bodies, which he then dipped in seasoning and fed to the large wolfhound waiting nearby.

With each slash, blood streamed down their bodies, their eyes widened in pain, their nostrils flared, unable to beg for mercy or bite their tongues. They deeply regretted not having perfected their plan and killed him outright!

The torture lasted for more than four hours. Neither of them had a visible wound on their bodies. They bled to death and died in excruciating pain.

...

Xiangjia in the city.

Xiang Zhibin's father, Xiang Tao, looked at the message his son had sent on his phone asking for money, his face grim.

For the past month, his son has been asking him for money every day.

At first, it was just one voice message a day, but gradually it became a series of requests every day. Now he receives more than a dozen money requests every day, just like loan sharks harassing him.

He asked his son twice what he needed the money for.

He gave a bunch of nonsensical reasons, and in the last two days he even said that if he didn't get money, he would go into business.

Xiang Tao truly wished he had never had this son.

His wife beside him didn't look too good either. When Xiang Tao received his son's plea for help, his wife naturally followed suit. At first, the couple sent money to their son, not much, just enough for a plane ticket from the U.S. to China.

But not only did her son not come back, he became even more aggressive!

"Don't be sad, let's just pretend we never had this son."

Xiang Tao was a worldly man, and he had some suspicions about how much his son had changed since going abroad. When asked, he always regretted it, wishing he hadn't sent his son abroad.

Even if it stinks at home, it's better than going abroad and embarrassing yourself.

But now, it's too late.

"Do you think we should have his girlfriend talk to him?"

When my son was in his senior year of high school, he started dating a girl. My husband and I were both very opposed to it, feeling that a girl from the countryside couldn't help our son at all, and we made him break up with her.

Their son wouldn't listen, and they didn't say anything more about it. Anyway, their son was going to study abroad, and they figured they would break up eventually.

However, the two insisted on staying together after five years of long-distance relationship.

It seems my son and this girl have some feelings for each other. Maybe if the girl puts in a good word, my son will come back?

"How about we try?" After all, he's their own son, whom they've raised with such care over the years. If they can still salvage the relationship, they should try.

So, Xiang's mother dialed the phone number she had saved for nearly six years but had never been able to get through to.

The original owner really did not change the number for several years.

So, Ning Yan received a call from Xiang's mother.

"Ning Yan, I am Xiang Zhibin's mother."

The original owner did not know the Xiang family's phone number, so she was slightly surprised when she received Xiang's mother's call, but only for a moment.

"Hello."

"I want to talk to you about Zhibin."

Ning Yan wouldn't get entangled with irrelevant people, so she simply said bluntly, "Let me interrupt you for a moment, Mrs. Xiang, you may not know, but Xiang Zhibin and I have already broken up."

You can't really tell me about his affairs.

"How is this possible? Haven't you been together the whole time?"

"We were indeed together, but two months ago, he called me and asked me to come to the U.S. to see him, and I went."

But after I met him, I realized that we were no longer compatible, so we broke up.

He agreed.

Do you have any other questions?

"You saw him, how is he? What exactly happened between you two?"

"You should ask your son about these things. Don't call me again."

Ning Yan hung up the phone after saying that.

The original owner of this body died because of Xiang Zhibin. As Xiang Zhibin's mother, it was already a sign of her good temper that she could talk to her nicely for a few minutes.

It seems that Kan is following her instructions to send messages to Xiang's parents every day, otherwise they wouldn't have called her.

That's good, that way Xiang Zhibin will die soon.

...

Things went very smoothly for Bian Muchen, and Xinhua was acquired in less than half a month.

Soon Xinhua Electronics Factory was transformed into Yanhuo Electronics Co., Ltd.

There are only two shareholders, Ning Yan and Bian Muchen.

Everyone in the factory knew that the factory had a new owner, and they were all quite uneasy, fearing that the factory would lay off workers. Although this broken factory had all sorts of shortcomings, it had one advantage: it could pay wages on time, and the more you worked, the more you earned.

They genuinely don't want to be forced into unemployment.

But they soon had no time to worry.

After the company secured the deal, the headhunters they recruited were in place. Bian Muchen used his existing network to bring in business for the company, and the results were good. In just a few days, he secured two big deals.

The workers were all smiles. It was great to have work. Although there was no overtime pay, they could earn more commission if they did a little more.

Moreover, this boss is a very nice person; all workers who work overtime can get free late-night snacks, and I heard he's even planning to re-tender the cafeteria.

The factory canteen was run by the former factory director's brother-in-law. The food there was both unpalatable and expensive, so most people bought food outside. Few people ate in the canteen, so the canteen's business wasn't very good.

Ning Yan has been staying at her older brother's house these past few days, and is usually responsible for picking up and dropping off her nephew at school. (End of Chapter)
