Cao Nana's smugness vanished, and she cried uncontrollably while hugging Ji Zhixia.
Ji Zhixia looked at her with slight disgust and tried to pull her away.
"Nana, it's no use you coming to me. You know I've only been working at the company for a short time..."
"No..." Cao Nana shook her head frantically, tears streaming down her face. "Uncle Ji likes you so much. If you just say you want to help me, Uncle Ji will definitely give you the money. Just one hundred million. As long as you invest one hundred million in Cao's, I believe Cao's will definitely be revived, just like that ZN!"
"..." Ji Zhixia's expression was extremely subtle.
One hundred million? You make it sound so easy.
"Someone framed my father, saying he used doing charity work as a pretext to molest children. Now my father has been taken away for investigation, my mother eloped with a young lover, and our family is heavily in debt, owing a billion yuan..."
Cao Nana wiped away her tears: "Xiaxia, I'm no worse than you. As long as you're willing to support me, I can definitely save the Cao family..."
"Oh my, isn't this Miss Cao?"
Before Ji Zhixia could speak, a sarcastic voice came from the doorway.
It was Madam Ji and Aunt Min who arrived.
Aunt Min was dressed smartly, and even after not seeing her for a long time, she hadn't changed; she still looked down on people.
Seeing Cao Nana in such a disheveled state, Aunt Min chuckled in a strange, unsettling way.
"Miss Cao, you're joking. Everyone knows your Cao family has already declared bankruptcy. What good would it do if we gave you money?"
"Miss Cao, our young lady hasn't broken off relations with you yet because she's kind-hearted. Please don't take advantage of us!"
Cao Nana was stunned for a moment, then immediately stood up and rushed towards Madam Ji, kneeling on the ground and hugging her legs while crying.
“Aunt Ji, my mom and you are best friends. You said before that you wanted to recognize me as your goddaughter… Godmother, please help Nana. The company has gone bankrupt. How can Nana possibly afford to pay back 1 billion yuan…”
Cao's mother ran away, Cao's father went to jail, and the daughter was left to pay the debts of her father, so the debt of 1 billion yuan fell on Cao Nana's shoulders.
Madam Ji looked down at Cao Nana with no affection in her eyes, only disdain and disgust.
She stretched out her foot and kicked Cao Nana away, her words extremely cold.
“I treat your mother like my best friend and you like my own daughter, but you and your mother don’t think so!”
The Ji family came from peasant backgrounds, a stain they could never wash away.
The Cao family is different from the Ji family. The Cao family are proper city people, so naturally they look down on the Ji family, who used to be from the countryside.
If it weren't for the fact that getting close to the Cao family could secure good projects, Madam Ji wouldn't bother cultivating a relationship with them.
Now that the Cao family has fallen, she no longer needs to pretend.
Madam Ji pointed at Cao Nana and said disdainfully, "You are not allowed to come to see my Xiaxia again. Xiaxia and you are not from the same world. Xiaxia is going to inherit the company and marry Mu Zeyu to become the boss's wife of the Mu Group. You, a penniless wretch who owes a billion dollars, do you even deserve to talk to her?"
"This is the only and last time. If I see you again, you'll see if I'll give you any face!"
"Aunt Min, get this piece of trash out of here!"
Aunt Min immediately stepped forward: "Yes, Madam!"
Cao Nana cried, shouted, and struggled, refusing to leave no matter what.
Aunt Min has a knack for dealing with persistent pests; she just slapped Cao Nana twice across the face, knocking her senseless on the spot.
Before she could react, they grabbed her hair and dragged her out.
Throughout the entire process, Ji Zhixia did not utter a single word.
