Chapter 1229 No Way Out



Anna then turned and left the room, leaving He Bing and her son, along with a few other friends who were just there to make up the numbers, looking at each other in bewilderment.

As Anna closed the door, He Bing slammed her hand on the table in anger: "Damn it, how dare she talk to us like that? Does she really think she's some little princess who controls the finances? It's ridiculous. I'm going to find Dad and take the control of the finances back."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged woman beside him shook her head slightly.

She picked up an elegant cigarette case from the table, opened it, took out a slender women's cigarette, and put it in her mouth. Immediately, someone next to her picked up a lighter and lit the cigarette for her.

The woman took a light puff, letting the smoke slowly escape from the corner of her mouth, making her appear so alluring that she didn't seem to match her actual age at all. If you didn't know better, you would think that He Bing and he were siblings.

“Son, don’t rush. Anna just got back. You need to give her some time to adjust. We don’t need to worry about the finances. I should be able to teach him a little lesson through other means, so he knows that he’s not the only one who calls the shots at this factory.”

Upon hearing her mother's words, a murderous glint flashed in He Bing's eyes.

However, he quickly suppressed his murderous intent: "Alright, if that's the case, then spare his life for now. Mom, what do you suggest we do?"

So the woman gently tapped the table with her finger, then picked up her chopsticks, dipped them in water, and wrote a few words on the table.

After reading it, He Bing's face immediately showed a look of sudden realization, and he clapped his hands and gave a thumbs up repeatedly.

On the other side, after finishing dinner, Anna prepared to get a good night's rest in her bedroom.

However, Lu Yuan's image kept replaying in her mind. She really couldn't get used to Lu Yuan not being around, and felt that she had no sense of security at all.

Thinking about this, Anna could no longer fall asleep, so she got up and went to the finance office in the factory.

He had just received the key. After entering the office, he glanced at the documents on the desk, then picked them up one by one and carefully reviewed them.

There's basically nothing suspicious about these documents. They're mostly just statistics and breakdowns of the factory's inventory and sales by the previous accountant, so every single account can withstand scrutiny.

However, when Anna saw the amounts in those accounts, she immediately felt that there must be something wrong with them, especially when she saw the single phrase "Riverside Tofu Skin" written below. Anna felt that there must be something fishy going on.

So she picked out all the documents related to the merger and signature from the list of documents, summarized them briefly, and found that the amount was as high as over a million. This was only in the last three months, and the other party had already signed three million worth of documents through the factory.

Anna gritted her teeth and looked again at the pay slips handed to her. The thick stack of pay slips had no checkmarks.

The message indicated that the factory workers had not yet received their wages, suggesting that the payments were already in arrears. She thought about the banquet that evening and the words spoken by He Bing and her son, and felt even more furious.

"Humans are already living like this, and they still exploit us so much. They're even more human than the people of Earth! No, I have to get rid of them as soon as possible!"

However, as soon as she finished speaking, she felt a sense of powerlessness wash over her.

He's all alone right now, and he's facing his stepmother who's been entrenched in the factory for over six months.

Judging from her stepmother's methods and strength, it would be incredibly easy for her to bring me down.

Going against her at this time would be a very unwise choice; you might end up fighting her to the death, and in the end, neither of you would benefit.

After a moment's thought, Anna realized that she really did seem to be short-handed.

However, he had no idea who he could trust or who his confidants were in the factory, or who were the spies planted by He Bing and her son.

After thinking about it for a long time, Anna finally decided to call Lu Yuan first, so she picked up the phone and dialed the number she knew by heart.

The call was finally answered after a long time. There was a lot of noise coming from the other end, including sounds of mahjong and a fight.

Then the sound slowly faded away, and then Lu Yuan's voice came from inside: "Who is it?"

"It's me, Anna."

Upon hearing Anna's voice, Lu Yuan couldn't help but glance behind the door before closing it.

The noise around him immediately subsided, and he leaned against his office wall, a cigarette dangling from his lips.

"How does it feel to be home now?"

After thinking for a long time, Anna uttered a single word: "Chaos!"

"Oh? How is it chaotic?"

"In short, it's a mess. Whether it's conflicts between family members or big and small things in the factory, I think it's all a mess. Now I want to organize things properly in the factory."

My stepmother and my younger brother have basically taken control of the whole situation. I'm worried that things might get complicated when Dad gets better. I'm thinking of starting the recruitment process sooner. Do you think it's okay for you to come and help me?

Lu Yuan remained silent for a while, then looked at the people downstairs with a hint of helplessness.

"Sigh, actually I want to help you too, but I really have a lot of things to do right now. I just took over the territory of a few casinos and we're dividing it up. You know what's going on with Luo Cheng, it's not something I can resolve for now. So I might have to go over a little later. I'll go over and help you after I finish things with him. What do you think?"

Anna sighed and finally nodded in agreement. However, she still needed to recruit more people for her staff. After thinking it over, she wrote down several job openings in her notebook and sent them to the secretariat. Through the secretariat, she contacted talent markets that specialize in finding talent and asked them to help her select candidates.

When they learned that Anna was recruiting for her team, He Bing and her son both wore serious expressions.

"Looks like Anna isn't exactly honest. She's only just taken the stage and she's already trying to give us a hard time. Humph! We can't let her push us off like this!"
