Chapter 41 Attending the Ex's Funeral
Liu Meilan and Xia Xiongwei used to set up a shell company to line their own pockets.
The shell company was responsible for maintaining the cooperation between the Xia and Cui groups.
The Cui family had previously transferred 500 million yuan to the Xia Group as an investment, which ended up in the pocket of a shell company.
After Liu Meilan and Xia Xiongwei absconded, the shell company also disappeared.
In addition, Cui Hao died, and Xia Jingjing also disappeared along with Liu Meilan.
The Cui family came to the Xia Group demanding an explanation.
Five hundred million must be returned within three days.
Summer months bring headaches.
She spent a great deal of effort yesterday to figure out the Xia Group's accounts.
I thought I could barely break even, but I never expected Liu Meilan to be so ruthless and dig such a huge hole!
Where is she going to get so much money all of a sudden?
"Yueyue, I have 100 million here, which you lent me before."
The Shen Group's cash flow has stabilized these past two days, so you don't need to worry.
Shen Xiangxiang, being well-informed, had also heard about this and came over to comfort Xia Yue.
Xia Yue still has the 100 million yuan that the Qin family specially compensated her for the last annulment of the engagement.
In total, we're still short 300 million.
If we pay back 200 million first, the Cui family should have no objections.
Xia Yue was unhappy.
This is a debt that Liu Meilan owed, yet she's being made to take the blame.
I'll return it to my ex-boyfriend's family.
She didn't want to spend a single penny.
"I really hope the police find them soon!" Xia Yue said angrily.
"We definitely will!" Shen Xiangxiang shook hands in support.
"Awoo~" The white wolf seemed to sense that Xia Yue was in a bad mood and let out a soft cry to comfort her.
Xia Yue looked at the white wolf, and a thought suddenly came to her mind.
If Qin Yeting were here, that would be great.
That man always managed to solve her problems.
He will definitely be able to find Liu Meilan and the others.
But the thought only flashed through her mind; Xia Yue knew clearly that men could not be relied upon.
Her greatest support is herself.
And so, Xia Yue and Shen Xiangxiang discussed it and decided to go to the Cui family to discuss the 500 million yuan debt.
This money was owed by Liu Meilan and Xia Xiongwei, and cannot be entirely attributed to the Xia family.
However, upon arriving at the Cui Group, they were told that none of the people in charge of the Cui Group were currently in the company.
Cui Hao, the eldest son of the Cui family, passed away suddenly a few days ago.
The Cui family is busy preparing for his funeral, and none of the important members are at the company.
"Yueyue, should we buy a wreath and go take a look?" Shen Xiangxiang asked gloatingly.
Cui Hao and Xia Jingjing colluded to bully her Yueyue, and she hasn't settled the score with them yet.
Now that the person is dead, she can take advantage of their misfortune.
"Forget about the wreaths, that person doesn't deserve them, but going to join in the fun is fine." Xia Yue raised an eyebrow slightly.
After a while, she felt something was off and added,
"I've always felt that Cui Hao's death was a bit sudden. A scourge can live for a thousand years, and this matter is not that simple."
"Now that you mention it, I also think something's fishy! We need to go and take a closer look!"
An hour later.
The two arrived at the Cui family's house.
The funeral was very low-key, with very few guests.
There was only a simple mourning hall.
Xia Yue and Shen Xiangxiang arrived uninvited, much to the surprise of Madam Cui, who was in charge of receiving them.
However, Xia Yue was once Cui Hao's girlfriend. Although things didn't end well, Mrs. Cui still gave her face.
"Miss Xia, I heard that you have now inherited the Xia Group. Congratulations!"
It's a pity my son wasn't lucky enough to be with you; we were destined to meet but not to be together. Alas…
"Madam Cui, please don't be too sad. Taking care of your health is the most important thing," Xia Yue replied perfunctorily.
She was very good at observing micro-expressions. The Mrs. Cui in front of her was very calm and did not seem like someone who had lost her son.
Sure enough, she made the right choice coming today.
At this moment, Xia Yue was unaware that her every move was being monitored.
Standing in the monitoring room, Cui Hao saw Xia Yue appear and his expression revealed a hint of smugness.
"As expected, Yueyue still cares about me." Cui Hao couldn't help but sigh.
His assistant quickly advised, "Young Master, please don't be impulsive. Madam went to great lengths to stage this fake death so that she could force out the true colors of that mistress and her illegitimate child."
If you go to see Miss Xia Yue now, everything will be in vain.
“You don’t need to tell me this.” Cui Hao glared at his assistant.
Then, our gaze fell on Xia Yue again.
He remembered that he met Xia Yue at the beach that night and was then knocked unconscious by a man.
After waking up, he was almost killed by a group of experts, but fortunately he was saved by the divine doctor X.
He was tricked by Xia Jingjing and thought that Xia Yue had tried to kill him, so he almost sent Xia Yue to prison.
These days, he has been paying close attention to what's happening outside.
Knowing that Xia Jingjing had been expelled from the Xia family, they realized that Xia Jingjing was no longer of any use to them.
Summer is still the best.
It just so happens that Xia Yue and the Qin family are no longer engaged.
After all this was over, he decided to start over with Xia Yue!
If Xia Yue, who was visiting the funeral hall, knew that Cui Hao was thinking this way, she would definitely kick the coffin lid off.
"Yueyue, I don't see anything wrong with this funeral. When are we going to discuss the debt with the Cui family?" Shen Xiangxiang chatted with Xia Yue while cracking sunflower seeds.
Xia Yue said, "If we could see through it so easily, it wouldn't be a setup."
After saying that, Xia Yue took two melon seeds from Shen Xiangxiang and casually cracked one open.
"It's pretty good. Where did you get it?"
