Following the critical hit in the studio, Shao Hui suffered the second major blow in her life in this speeding car.
She couldn't believe what she was hearing.
"Brother, what do you mean by that?" she asked in a trembling voice. "How much money did Xiao Yiheng lose?"
Zhuang Li glanced at the rearview mirror and found that He Ming's car was following them, so he smiled slightly.
"He's probably lost 600 to 700 million in the stock market, and the 200 to 300 million he invested in manufacturing that junk has all gone down the drain. Wasn't the Huanyu a hot seller a while ago? His company has been receiving numerous large orders and collected tens of millions in deposits. Now that the Huanyu's quality has been compromised, he not only has to return the deposits but also compensate the customers for their losses. If a lawsuit is filed, the compensation will likely be around 200 to 300 million.
"He also borrowed tens of millions from the bank, and the bank is definitely going to recover that money. He also used the shareholders' investment money to speculate in the stock market, and the shareholders will not let him go. Not only is he now penniless, he's also owing a huge debt, and there are countless people waiting to sue him. His company is hopeless and will go bankrupt in less than a month."
At this point, Zhuang Li chuckled and shook his head, saying, "No one can get away with provoking me. He should have realized this on the day he broke off the engagement."
Shao Hui's heart almost burst when she heard this.
She is the largest shareholder of Jingwei Country. If the company goes bankrupt, it means she goes bankrupt. If the company is in debt, it means she is in debt. If the company is destroyed, it means she is destroyed. There is a direct connection here!
She never imagined that she had only given Zhuang Li a wedding without a groom, but Zhuang Li would give her a life riddled with holes in it. His vengeful nature was terrifying!
What’s even more terrifying is that after living with him for so many years, Shao Hui has never discovered his true face!
To his family, Zhuang Li has always been gentle and considerate, like dough. Who could have imagined that his hidden heart was so hideous and terrifying!
Xiao Yiheng was right, Zhuang Li was a devil in human skin!
Endless regret flooded her heart, nearly causing Shao Hui to collapse. If she had known the real Zhuang Li was like this, she would never have arranged the wedding.
She didn't just lose a few thousand, she lost hundreds of millions! To earn that money, she groveled before her stepmother, groveled before customers, and worked from dawn to dusk making skincare products and selling fruit. Every penny she earned was earned through blood and sweat!
But what about Zhuang Li? He just sat comfortably at home for three days and earned more money than she could ever earn in her entire life.
The gap between people was so huge that it made Shao Hui despair.
What made her even more unbearable was that she had caused Zhuang Li to be so ruthless. If she hadn't hurt Zhuang Li, none of this would have happened.
The more Shao Hui thought about it, the more regret she felt. Her heart ached like a knife. Unable to bear it any longer, she covered her mouth with her palm and secretly drank two sips of the spiritual spring water.
Zhuang Li glanced at Shao Hui and said meaningfully, "Xiao Hui, you should be kind, but also sharp. You can't just tolerate others, okay? You should repay kindness with kindness and revenge with revenge. Only in this way can you live happily. You must not be soft-hearted when dealing with people like Xiao Yiheng."
Shao Hui asked with tears in her eyes, "Why didn't you say this to me before?"
If Zhuang Li had said so, she would not have jumped into this fire pit with Xiao Yiheng. She would definitely have been more cautious and careful.
"You were still young before, so there were some things I couldn't tell you." Zhuang Li sighed.
Shao Hui: “…” You’re the same age as me!
For a second, Shao Hui really wanted to grab the steering wheel from Zhuang Li and then both of them would die!
Yet, in a trance, she was filled with fear: In a previous life, she and Xiao Yiheng were caught in bed by Zhuang Li, and were soon abducted by human traffickers. Could that trafficker also have been arranged by Zhuang Li?
Yes, if revenge is his true nature, then it is impossible for him to not take any action since he also suffered betrayal in his previous life.
This way, everything made sense! It turned out that Zhuang Li had already taken revenge on him in his previous life, but he was so stupid that he had never thought about it at all!
He is so cruel! How can there be such a terrible person in the world!
Shao Hui couldn't help but burst into tears when she recalled the unbearable experience of being beaten and imprisoned by human traffickers, and then sold into the mountains where she had no one to turn to for help.
Now, looking at Zhuang Li again, she was so frightened that she shrank towards the car door. If she didn't care about her life, she would have wanted to open the door and jump out and run away.
She could no longer bear to be in the same room with this devil in human skin.
Zhuang Li took the time to glance at her, a look of pity immediately appearing on his face, "Xiao Hui, why are you crying? Didn't I tell you that someone like Xiao Yiheng isn't worth it? I'll help you find someone better in the future."
He wanted to rub Shao Hui's head, but Shao Hui screamed and slapped his hand away, her emotional breakdown no longer under control.
She had thought today was the beginning of her journey to the pinnacle of life, but she hadn't expected to fall into the abyss the moment she took a step forward. The tragic experiences of her previous life and the pain and despair of this one had dealt her a double blow.
If she had figured out who was behind her past life's misfortune sooner, she wouldn't have bothered Zhuang Li at all. She would have stayed away from this person the moment she was reborn.
"Brother, I'm sorry, you, you..." She wanted to say, "Please let me go," but she was afraid that Zhuang Li would become suspicious.
She was now in a difficult situation. She absolutely could not let Zhuang Li know what she had done, otherwise she would be tortured miserably for the rest of her life.
After witnessing with her own eyes how Zhuang Li had schemed to ruin Xiao Yiheng's reputation and leave him with nothing in just half a month, she realized very clearly that she was no match for Zhuang Li.
Her only advantage now is that Zhuang Li still trusts her very much, and once this trust is broken, Zhuang Li's revenge will only be more violent.
He even sold his own sister. He has no humanity at all!
"Brother, I'm sorry. I didn't care about you enough before. I didn't know you had so many things in your heart." Shao Hui abruptly changed the tone. Her eyes, wet with tears due to fear, made her look particularly sincere.
"Silly girl, everything is over." Zhuang Li smiled and rubbed Shao Hui's head.
Shao Hui sat stiffly in the passenger seat, trying not to dodge, but the hairs on her body stood on end. It was the feeling of being coiled by a venomous snake.
---
While the brother and sister were "living in harmony and loving each other", He Ming, who was following Zhuang Li closely, became extremely anxious and filled with remorse.
When they divorced, Zhuang Li held his hand and sincerely begged him to give her a little more trust. Why didn't he give it to her? If he had been willing to face his own heart at that time, their marriage would not have come to this point.
After all the misunderstandings were resolved, He Ming just wanted to slap himself hard twice. How could he be so stupid and so shameless?
He Ming honked the horn hard, begging Zhuang Li to stop, but the man's taillights were getting farther and farther away.
He Ming wanted to overtake, but was afraid of scaring Zhuang Li and causing irreparable disaster, so he could only chase closely.
Zhuang Li couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth as he listened to the urgent whistle behind him.
7480 sighed, "This is a living crematorium for chasing husbands!"
Zhuang Li shook his head and chuckled a few times.
Gradually recovering, Shao Hui noticed the car behind her honking its horn and warned, "Brother, someone is chasing us." She suddenly became nervous, gripped the handle on the roof, and said in a trembling voice, "Brother, could it be your enemy showing up?"
Zhuang Li is so cruel, he must have many enemies outside.
7480 suppressed a smile and said, "Master, look how scared you've made Destiny's Child. She thought you were a pervert."
As soon as he finished speaking, 7480 slapped his mouth lightly and changed his tone, "I was wrong. You are a pervert. She knows you very well."
Zhuang Li chuckled and said, "I find that you are becoming more and more courageous."
7480 immediately became timid, quietly hid in the corner, and obediently flipped through his picture book.
Zhuang Li's car pulled into a villa complex. Coincidentally, He Ming also owned a villa in the complex, though he didn't live there all the time. The scanner at the checkpoint detected that both cars' license plates belonged to the owners and immediately raised the barrier to allow them to pass.
As Zhuang Li parked the car, He Ming ran out of a car behind him and leaned over to look inside. He had beaten Xiao Yiheng so hard without even breathing, but now he was nervously trying to breathe.
He slapped the car window and said guiltily, "Xiao Li, I'm sorry, I was wrong before. Come out and let's have a good talk."
Zhuang Li opened the car door and walked out with a calm expression on his face.
If he got angry, questioned him, or wanted to settle scores later, He Ming could handle it, and even feel extremely relieved, because he could truly feel that Zhuang Li cared about him. But he had no idea how to deal with this man's calmness.
The determination beneath the calmness is a loss that He Ming cannot bear.
"Xiao Li, can you please look at me?" He Ming hugged Zhuang Li from behind, his hoarse voice filled with deep pleading.
"I really know I was wrong. Can we remarry?" He Ming put his lips to Zhuang Li's ear and said firmly, "When we divorced, you asked me if I loved you. Now I know the answer."
"I love you." He Ming hugged the person in his arms tightly, lowered his head and confided: "I really love you. You know, these days, what I care about is not your betrayal, nor the financial loss. I just can't forget what you said to Xiao Yiheng. I was afraid that your feelings for me were fake, and I was always worried about gains and losses. I was wrong, please give me another chance. Let's start over, okay?"
He Ming paused for a moment, as if suppressing the panic and fear in his heart, and then he spoke humbly: "Xiao Li, please."
The divorce scene is repeated today, except that the husband and wife's situations are completely reversed.
Zhuang Li shook his head and said, "You don't know where you are wrong at all. Think it over carefully before coming to me." After he finished speaking, he struggled hard but failed to break free from He Ming's arms.
This man is so strong and powerful.
7480: "Puff!"
Zhuang Li feigned anger and yelled, "Let me go, or I'll never speak to you again!"
He Ming immediately let go of his hand, raised his arms and made a gesture of surrender.
7480: "Look at him, that coward! Pah!"
Zhuang Li hit He Ming's stomach hard with his elbow, but instead of He Ming's wailing, he heard his own cry of pain.
This guy's abdominal muscles are as hard as iron!
He Ming immediately grabbed his wrist and hit his face hard, saying softly, "Hit here. It won't hurt if you hit my hand here."
Zhuang Li: "..."
For a moment, Zhuang Li was almost amused by this silly guy.
"Think about it carefully when you go back. Why has our marriage come to this point? Who is responsible?" Zhuang Li pushed He Ming and turned to walk home.
Shao Yan stood at the door, looking at the two of them nervously.
Shao Hui no longer had the energy to envy Zhuang Li, let alone to plot against He Ming. She didn't want to die yet. With her shoulders hunched and her head lowered, she held her breath as she followed Zhuang Li, looking like a prisoner being escorted.
He Ming stood alone under the streetlight, watching Zhuang Li disappear behind the closed door. He didn't dare leave for a moment, fearing that he would be gone in the blink of an eye.
Only after he lost it did he realize how happy he once was.
