That night, Xiao Qing, who usually slept very well, was awakened by a nightmare and then curled up in a corner until dawn.
The next day, when Li Chuan woke Xiao Qing up as usual, he found that Xiao Qing was squatting in the corner with her toes numb and her eyes red.
This made Li Chuan, who always loved his daughter dearly, unable to bear it any longer. He went up to Xiao Qing, hugged her, put her on the bed, and asked for a day off for her.
Afterwards, Li Chuan called Huo Siyun to Xiao Qing's bedroom and asked her to stay with Xiao Qing while he drove to Xiao Fei's company. He wanted to discuss countermeasures with Xiao Fei.
Li Chuan actually had a plan in mind all along. He just wanted to take this opportunity to train Xiao Fei. He believed that a man should use his manly methods.
Li Chuan believed that a man must be responsible and have a bottom line. If that bottom line was crossed, he wanted to see how Xiao Fei would handle it.
So she drove to the company as fast as she could, reducing what would normally be an hour's journey to just 20 minutes.
After arriving at the company, he found Xiaofei and briefly explained Xiaoqing's current situation to him, asking Xiaofei to come up with a plan.
They were all very protective of their own. No matter how much their family members bullied them, they would never tolerate insults from outsiders. So this incident made Xiaofei very angry.
When Xiao Fei saw Li Chuan come to her for advice, he instantly displayed the responsibility expected of a man. He quickly summoned her personal assistant.
"Go and look up their information for me." The personal assistant looked at the photo in her hand and instantly understood. A personal assistant needs to have a photographic memory.
He had met this person a few times; she was probably the daughter of one of his business partners.
So, within the few minutes he was out, he identified the partner and quickly returned to the conference room to tell Xiaofei.
Xiao Fei looked at the detailed information handed to her by her personal assistant. A cold smile instantly appeared on her lips. Anyone who dared to bully her precious little sister should be prepared to go bankrupt.
Watching Xiao Fei's series of actions, Li Chuan couldn't help but chuckle to himself. It seemed it was time for him to let Xiao Fei take charge, and now Xiao Fei was fully capable and qualified to be the head of the family.
"Handle this matter properly. You absolutely cannot let your sister suffer in vain." After saying this, Li Chuan rushed home. He was worried about Xiao Qing, who was still at home.
He could only feel at ease when he was personally by Xiao Qing's side.
Xiao Qing nodded to her father and then returned to her office to begin her plan.
"Suspend all projects related to this company." Upon hearing this, the personal assistant quickly relayed Xiao Fei's order.
Originally, it was impossible for Xiaoxin's family to pass the company's resolution; it was just that Xiaoxin's father knew a senior employee in the company and took a shortcut.
It was this contract with their company that enabled Xiaoxin and his family to go from barely making ends meet to being worth tens of millions.
It's easy to imagine how devastating it would be for their family to become wealthy through this project and for it to be suspended.
As expected, within an hour, Xiaoxin's family's companies successively announced insufficient cash flow. If not dealt with promptly, they might have to declare bankruptcy within 24 hours.
Shin-chan's father felt something was amiss. They had worked together very well before, so why was he suddenly announcing the termination of the contract?
He went through countless connections before finally managing to find out about Xiaofei's personal assistant. But all that effort he put in only resulted in a single sentence.
It's all your daughter's fault for being so blind and offending someone she shouldn't have.
Upon hearing this, Xiaoxin's father immediately flew into a rage. It was one thing for his daughter to be arrogant and domineering at home, but to cause such a huge mess outside was unacceptable.
So, as soon as Shin-chan's father got home, he slapped Shin-chan twice. Shin-chan, bewildered, looked at his father with disbelief in his eyes.
Xiaoxin was the most pampered child in the family since she was a child. Her father had never hit her or even scolded her loudly. Now, he suddenly slapped her, and Xiaoxin felt very wronged.
Shin-chan's father was also heartbroken, after all, she was his daughter whom he had spoiled since she was a child. However, the thought that the company was about to go bankrupt because of him made him unable to contain his anger.
"Did you offend someone at school that you shouldn't have? This person is now retaliating against our company, which is on the verge of bankruptcy. You should go apologize to her right now."
After finishing his angry outburst, the father sat down on the sofa and continued making contacts.
When Xiao Xin heard her father say this, she was stunned. She had not offended anyone at school, and she had always gotten along very well with her classmates, at least on the surface.
In an instant, he thought of Xiao Qing, whom he had neglected these past two days. The thought that Xiao Qing's family possessed such power, capable of deciding the fate of their company in a matter of moments, filled him with a shock.
He clenched his fists tightly, not letting up even as his nails dug into the cracks in his flesh.
Seeing the anger on Shin-chan's face, Shin-chan's father wondered what was wrong, so he took Shin-chan and wanted to go to Shin-chan's house to apologize.
"I'd rather die than apologize to her." Xiaoxin saw through her father's intentions and gripped the handrail tightly at the door. He'd rather kill her than make him apologize to Xiaoqing.
When the father saw how immature Xiaoxin was, putting his personal emotions aside at a time when the company was on the verge of collapse, he became even angrier and slapped Xiaoxin again.
He carefully observed his father, who had already slapped him twice, and knew that his father was truly angry this time. So he had no choice but to get into the car with his father.
At this time, Xiao Fei also went home to see Xiao Qing. Xiao Fei had just arrived home when he happened to hear the doorbell ring. When he opened the door, he saw his wife and coldly tried to close the door.
"President, let's talk this out. I'll bring my unfilial daughter and son to apologize in person." At this moment, Li Chuan heard the commotion and walked to the door. He saw Xiao Xin outside, still defiant and full of anger.
"I don't think that's necessary. We'll see each other in court." After saying this, Li Chuan ignored Xiao Xin's father, who was pleading outside the door. He didn't even give him a second glance. He slammed the door shut, cutting off all the noise from outside.
