Shen Qingchen seemed to understand something. After a moment of silence, she slowly said, "Madam, Second Master, I'm sorry. It seems we made a mistake."
Ning Wanzhen's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, eased slightly, but her expression remained tense, and she did not utter a sound.
Ning Xin'er was somewhat disappointed.
The more mistakes the Bo family made, the more outstanding she appeared. And the more important she became to Ning Wanzhen.
That way, her plan would be easy to complete.
She pursed her lips, feigning a bewildered expression as she looked at Rong Zhi.
"No one is perfect, everyone makes mistakes." Rong Zhi smiled coolly. He paused, then added, "But the eldest young master has always been cautious, so I am quite surprised that he made such a mistake."
Shen Qingchen's heart was in turmoil, but his face remained calm. "I was also very surprised."
Rong Zhi smiled.
Ning Xin'er was a little confused.
At this moment, Ning Wanzhen clutched her chest and frowned. "Young Master, I'm sorry, I'm getting old and sitting is a bit tiring. You two chat. Xin'er, help me upstairs."
"Okay, Auntie." Ning Xin'er's heart tightened, and she immediately stood up and took her arm.
Shen Qingchen stood up as well. "Madam, Second Master, I've disturbed you for too long. I should be going now. I will definitely give the Bo family an explanation for what happened today."
Ning Wanzhen did not respond, but gestured for Ning Xin'er to help her leave.
Rong Zhi uncrossed his legs and stood up. "Young Master, I'll see you off."
Shen Qingchen nodded slightly, "Thank you for your trouble, Second Master."
The two walked out of the living room and onto the parking lot outside.
Shen Qingchen spoke up, "Second Master, please pass on a message to Madam Bo, saying that the Shen family owes her a favor. The Shen family will definitely repay this favor."
Rong Zhi pursed his lips, his eyes filled with a complex and unfathomable expression. "Alright. I will definitely pass on the message to her."
Shen Qingchen's attendant opened the back door of the car.
"Second Master, until we meet again."
Shen Qingchen took the initiative to shake hands with Rong Zhi.
"Goodbye, young master."
Rong Zhi watched Shen Qingchen leave.
About five minutes later, he got into the car and left the Bo family's old house.
Upon hearing the servant's report, Ning Xin'er immediately patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Auntie, I was so nervous just now."
Ning Wanzhen was lying on the sofa, and a female servant was massaging her legs.
Why are you so nervous?
Ning Xin'er took a sip of water. "Of course, I'm worried about the Shen family retaliating against the Bo family."
Perhaps feeling that this statement was somewhat inappropriate, he smoothed it over, saying, "The Shen family is no ordinary family. Anyone who dares to scheme against them will be severely punished, if not killed."
Ning Wanzhen's expression darkened slightly, and her voice became somewhat hoarse, "With Xinglan's personality, she's afraid of stepping on ants. She would never do something like this."
Ning Xin'er blurted out, "Auntie is right. Xinglan has been kind since she was little. She's nothing like her parents."
Ning Wanzhen's eyelids twitched. "In the Bo family, she's the only exception."
Ning Xin'er curled her lips slightly and frowned. "Being too kind isn't good either; it just means letting others bully you all the time."
Upon hearing this, Ning Wanzhen's heart sank.
She wondered if she was too kind, which was why Sang Yuwan was so unscrupulous.
He dismissed three vice presidents and transferred their power to Rong Zhi.
She knew perfectly well that she hated Rong Zhi to the core.
Ning Wanzhen fell into deep thought.
Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a while, Ning Xin'er assumed she had fallen asleep. But when she turned her head, she saw that she had her eyes squinted and her expression was serious.
"Auntie, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ning Wanzhen's eyes were filled with deep emotions, and her voice grew increasingly low and hoarse, "It's nothing, I'm just a little tired."
"If you're tired, take a good rest." Ning Xin'er said with concern in her eyes. "I'll stay with you."
Ning Wanzhen's eyes flickered, and she slowly closed them.
Ning Xin'er waited until she fell asleep before tiptoeing out.
She found a servant, handed him a card, and whispered, "From now on, I will deposit 100,000 into this card every month. If you do well, I will give you a reward."
"Thank you, Miss." The servant excitedly accepted the bank card, nodding and bowing repeatedly.
Ning Xin'er warned him, "You are not allowed to mention our relationship to anyone. Otherwise, you and your family will not have a good time."
"Understood...understood..." The servant clutched the bank card tightly and ran away in a flash.

Bo's Group.
Sang Yuwan stood at the entrance of the chairman's private elevator and personally saw off Lu Ningcheng, the president of Haicheng Lu Group, as he left.
In recent years, she has also accumulated a lot of connections in the business circle, and the Lu family of Haicheng is one of them.
Back then, the Lu Group nearly went bankrupt due to a broken capital chain caused by failed investments. It was Sang Yuwan who overruled objections and injected 1 billion yuan into the Lu Group, allowing it to recover.
Over the next two years, the company collaborated with us multiple times, and each collaboration was very successful.
Lu Ningcheng came here to discuss a new collaborative project.
Sea, sunshine, coastline.
Although this project is not very profitable, it is very meaningful.
Haicheng is located by the sea, and its coastline is very beautiful.
However, due to the lack of planning, the level of development has varied greatly. This not only wastes the beautiful resources but also hinders the development of Haicheng.
The development of the coastline was quickly approved.
Three days ago, the Lu family won this project.
The total investment will require approximately 8 billion.
The Lu family and the Bo family each contributed 4 billion.
The later benefits and risks are also shared equally.
As long as there are no problems during the construction process, this project is basically guaranteed to make a profit.
The elevator doors closed, and Sang Yuwan was about to turn around and go back to her office.
drop--
Another elevator slowly opened, and a person stepped out.
"Chairman."
Sang Yuwan's pupils contracted slightly, and her tone was somewhat indifferent, "President Rong."
Rong Zhi raised an eyebrow. "Did you just come back from outside?"
Sang Yuwan walked towards the office. "No."
Seeing that she was intentionally distancing herself from him, Rong Zhi curled his lips into a smile, "Giving her away?"
Sang Yuwan raised her eyes and glared at him coldly, "Do I need to report to you what I do?"
"Chairman, you've misunderstood. I was just saying it casually." A hint of tenderness appeared in Rong Zhi's eyes.
Sang Yuwan ignored him and quickened her pace slightly.
Unexpectedly, Rong Zhi followed her into the office.
Sang Yuwan frowned. "What's wrong?"
Rong Zhi pulled out a chair and sat down. "I have something to say."
Sang Yuwan sat down as well, picked up a document and flipped through it. "What is it?"
Rong Zhi spoke up, "Shen Qingchen just went to the Bo family's old residence."
Sang Yuwan's expression froze, and she suddenly looked up, her face instantly turning serious. "Why weren't you notified?"
"If he wanted to see you, why would he go to the old house without asking around?" Rong Zhi's lips curled into a sarcastic smile.
Sang Yuwan suddenly realized, her delicate brows furrowing slightly, "The person he wants to see is the old lady?"
Rong Zhi said, "He thought that by finding the old lady, he could pin the blame on the Bo family."
"Heh." Sang Yuwan sneered, "The Shen family is far too arrogant."
Rong Zhi added, "Luckily, I was prepared. Otherwise, Bo Xinglan would have been in a very difficult situation this time."
Sang Yuwan was taken aback, and a deep crease appeared between her brows.
Rong Zhi took out a diary from his coat pocket. "Take a look at this?"
