Chapter 373 Mary Sue's Sister-in-law (28)

"What did you say? What do you mean we can't help the Ning family?!" When Ning's father heard Xi Ciming's words, he couldn't believe his ears and couldn't help but raise his voice to question.

"Dad, I really can't help Ning's company. After all, Zhiyi offended Lehman Brothers this time. Their company is the industry leader, and our Xi family doesn't dare to offend them. Zhiyi had better seek forgiveness from Lehman Brothers. If the stalemate continues, Ning's company will never be able to cooperate with Lehman Brothers again. I'm sure my father-in-law understands this.

So my opinion is that the person who tied the bell should be the one who untied it. If Zhiyi can resolve the misunderstanding with Lehman Brothers, things will be much simpler. The key to the solution lies in Zhiyi. Father-in-law should go back and persuade Zhiyi. Blindly refusing to admit defeat is sometimes not a sign of backbone, but a sign of being stubborn and forcing oneself into a dead end. "Xi Ciming said slowly.

Father Ning was so angry that his chest kept rising and falling. He was obviously furious. Didn't he know that the key to the problem was the reconciliation between his son and Leiman? But his son refused to bow his head, and he couldn't force him to kneel down and beg Leiman for forgiveness, so he had to ask his in-laws for help.

After all, he still needed someone. Even though the atmosphere was tense, Father Ning suppressed his anger and said to Xi Ciming again:

“I also know that the key lies in whether Zhiyi can obtain Lehman’s forgiveness, but he went there several times to try to resolve the issue, but Lehman refused to make concessions. Zhiyi is young and hot-tempered, so he refused to apologize again.

You are his brother-in-law, Shichu and Zhiyi have always had a good relationship, can't you help him for Shichu's sake?"

Ning's father and mother began to play the emotional card.

Unfortunately, this also gave Ning Shichu a heads-up, and Xi Ciming was not moved at all and refused as usual.

Father and Mother Ning were already full of anger, and now they couldn't persuade Xi Ciming to help. They just felt that Xi Ciming was cold and heartless, and was so heartless to his in-laws. They couldn't help it, and angrily scolded him for putting profit above all else, taking advantage of others' misfortunes, being mean and ungrateful, and being heartless and indifferent...

Seeing that Xi Ciming was indifferent, he started to scold Ning Shichu's daughter again, saying that she no longer cared about her parents' family after she got married and was an ungrateful white-eyed wolf. If he had known this, he would have strangled her to death at birth.

Ning's father cursed extremely harshly, while Ning's mother was wiping her tears and crying, and from time to time she looked at Xi Ciming with condemnation and disappointment, as if his refusal to help the Ning family was an extremely heinous act.

Xi Ciming was not irritated by the attitudes of the two. He was so emotionally indifferent that, apart from his parents and family, and of course, now there was Ning Shichu, who he cared about, other people actually had no status in his heart. He had even less feelings for relatives like Ning's father and mother, whom he only saw two or three times a year.

But the two of them wanted to make excessive demands by relying on their status as his parents-in-law. How could Xi Ciming be threatened by them?

Seeing that the two of them were cursing enthusiastically and didn't want to leave, Xi Ciming had them dragged out. After all, the two were prominent people, and it was too embarrassing to be dragged out, so he had to give up and left angrily.

Ning Shichu had no idea that Ning's father and mother had really gone to Xi Ciming to make a scene, and after being rejected, they broke up with each other. She went to the beach to play with Hong Yunyun.

They went to a holiday beach, where the water was clear and transparent, the sand was fine and soft, and the sea breeze was gentle and comfortable, making people linger.

Ning Shichu held a coconut and sucked on it while watching Hong Yunyun playing in the water at the beach.

"Hi, beautiful lady, may I have the honor to know your name? I think you must have a lovely name, just as lovely and beautiful as you are." A tall and handsome man walked up to Ning Shichu and said to her with a smile, looking at her affectionately with his light gray eyes. His words were so sweet and his chatup was so artistic.

"Sorry, my mother told me not to tell my name to strangers." Ning Shichu said mercilessly, looking away, not wanting to look at the handsome boy's hurt expression. Although it was pretended, when such a handsome man made such an expression, it always made people feel pity for him and want to agree to his request involuntarily.

But Ning Shichu remembered that she was a married woman and had promised Xi Ciming not to flirt with other people casually, so she had to cruelly reject the handsome guy's approach. Well, she was a person of her word. If she was still single, she wouldn't mind having a romantic encounter.

When the handsome guy heard her words, he knew he was rejected, so he said disappointedly: "Well, beautiful lady, it's my pity that I can't know your name."

After saying that, he waved at her and left regretfully.

Hong Yunyun ran back from the beach and stopped playing in the water. She stared at the handsome guy's back as he left and sighed, "This handsome guy is so good-looking, with a great figure and looks. It's such a pity that you rejected him! Why didn't he approach me?"

Ning Shichu rolled his eyes at her: "Don't push me to make a mistake, if you like him, go and flirt with him yourself!"

"Hehe, since you said so, I won't be polite! Sister, I'll go first..." Hong Yunyun patted Ning Shichu's shoulder with a smile, and went happily to the handsome guy.

Ning Shichu shook his head speechlessly. Hong Yunyun was indeed a playboy. She fell in love with every man she met and was not afraid of any bad luck one day.

"Mom and Dad, how is it? Did Xi Ciming agree to help?" Ning Zhiyi couldn't help but ask with anticipation when he saw his father and mother returning home.

Mother Ning shook her head with tears in her eyes, while Father Ning said angrily: "Don't mention it! Xi Ciming is a greedy villain! I begged him, but he, a junior, not only refused to help, but also ridiculed us, saying that you caused the trouble and you have to clean it up..."

Ning's father exaggerated Xi Ciming's words and successfully made Ning Zhiyi think that Xi Ciming looked down on him and didn't want to clean up his mess. So his face turned red, and he said angrily, "Mom and Dad, let's not beg him. He doesn't want to get involved in our affairs. Why should we send ourselves to him to get slapped in the face?"

Ning Zhiyi is indeed worthy of being the biological son of Ning's father and mother. When he needs help from others, he refuses to bow his head and beg. Instead, he holds his neck high, hoping that others will come to him and help him unreservedly. If others don't help him, he thinks that they are heartless, ungrateful, and taking advantage of him.

But they had never reflected on how excessive their demands were. In business, even if they were relatives, they had to distinguish their own interests and only lend a helping hand when it was not excessive. But the Ning family wanted others to take over all the trouble they had caused and help them solve the problem without any future troubles...

How could such a good thing happen in this world? Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly, not to mention that the Ning family and the Xi family are only relatives by marriage.
