Indeed, so far, the events have had the greatest impact on Mourning.
A girl was photographed by a reporter in a man's bed. If the man doesn't marry her, his reputation is ruined.
That's why she wanted Xu Bai to marry Mo Ning.
Thinking about all this, Madam Jiang reached out and grasped Mo Ning's hand.
"Going to the police station might not lead to a conviction, but public opinion is a powerful force! Isn't it?"
Morning's testimony alone doesn't prove anything, and besides, two days have passed.
She threatened the Xu family to call the police, intending to tell them that if they didn't agree, she would ruin Xu Bai's and the Xu family's reputation.
"They ruined a girl's reputation and then refused to take responsibility for her. Which family would dare to marry their precious daughter into the Xu family in the future? Who would dare to do business with the Xu family in the business world!"
“Mr. Xu!” Madam Jiang looked at Xu Sheng, who was in the main seat, “Do you think what I said is right?”
Xu Sheng looked coldly at Madam Jiang without replying.
Madam Jiang didn't care that they were unhappy and didn't want to talk to her. As long as she could achieve her goal and make Lu Feng happy before he returned, she didn't care.
"Mr. Xu, Xincheng, Young Master Xu!"
Madam Jiang glanced around at the people at the table and said in a cold voice, "I don't want to go against the Xu family, nor do I want my niece to be harmed for no reason!"
"Your Xu family is here today, so either you agree to this marriage, or the Xu and Jiang families will no longer have any dealings with each other."
At the end, Madam Jiang's voice was particularly clear and resonant.
She didn't believe the Xu family cared about their reputation or face!
"I will not marry her!"
Xu Bai replied in a clear and serious voice.
He raised his head and looked coldly at Mo Ning beside Madam Jiang, "Even if I lose my status as the young master of the Xu family, I will not marry her!"
Su Ning once said that Mo Ning's people weren't that bad.
Xu Bai knew what was going on, but he had never liked this girl.
A girl he loathed, a girl who plotted against him—could he really fall in love with her after being forced into marriage?
That's a joke!
Moreover, if he marries a girl he doesn't want to marry willingly, he'll likely ruin the marriage and the other person's life.
It's bad for everyone!
His words were resounding and deeply moving. Mo Ning's eyes reddened as she heard them, and the tears that welled up betrayed her emotions.
Madam Jiang noticed her change, gently patted her hand, and whispered, "Your mother is here!"
Madam Jiang smiled, and Mo Ning stared blankly at her, feeling no joy in her heart, but rather a heavy weight pressing down on her.
The private room fell silent for about a minute before Xu Sheng asked Madam Jiang.
"If you want the Xu family to marry your niece, what do you want in return!"
Sending people here for no reason and asking for nothing in return—that's not how Madam Jiang is.
"As long as you treat Ningning well, that's fine!" Madam Jiang thought Xu Sheng had agreed, and when they talked about the betrothal gifts, her face was full of joy.
"I have only one condition."
Changing the subject, Madam Jiang continued, "The Jiang family used to have some shares in the Xu family."
"Ningning doesn't want a house or money when she marries into the family; she only wants 10% of the shares in your Xu family."
This is like how Old Master Jiang made the Xu family a tool for the Jiang family to make money.
That was a brilliant plan!
"That's too much," Xu Sheng replied with a cold laugh. "We can't afford it!"
Giving away the Xu family's shares again? That's impossible!
Moreover, she wasn't the girl Xu Bai truly wanted to marry.
"Eight percent is also acceptable."
Madam Jiang continued to pay, her bottom line being five percent.
