Chapter 97 Paying Off the Family Assets
The security guards and the front desk staff were of course very concerned about the news about Mr. Mu and Mrs. Mu, and they also knew that these were Mrs. Mu's cruel biological father and stepmother.
Secretary Zhao had already told them that if Mrs. Mu's father, stepmother, or sister came, they would not be allowed in.
They had already memorized the appearance of these three people.
The lady at the front desk had a professional smile on her face.
"Excuse me, do you have an appointment?"
"I'm your CEO Mu's father-in-law. What else do you need to make an appointment? Let us go up!"
"Sorry, we can't let you up without a reservation."
Qin Min was unhappy.
"You're just a bunch of workers. What qualifications do you have to stop your boss's father-in-law? I'll have your CEO Mu fire you all later!"
The two receptionists were speechless. Who did he think they were and why did he want President Mu to fire them?
But he still kept smiling.
"Sorry, we are following the rules. If we let you go, President Mu will blame us, and then our jobs will be in jeopardy."
Wen Bowen and his wife tried to persuade them for a long time, cursing and saying nice things, but the front desk clerk just refused to let them go up.
In the end, I could only leave in shame.
Before they got home, the police called and urged them to hurry over.
"What should we do? Husband, we can't see President Mu. Do we really have to pay out our family fortune?"
Wen Bowen sighed.
"What can I do? I have to pay compensation. The police have urged me several times. If I don't deal with it, they will come to my house, and it will be even more difficult to deal with it then."
"Husband, how much compensation do those two families have to pay?"
"One million."
"A million in total?"
"One million per family, two million in total."
Qin Min was shocked.
"Why so much? They're asking for too much."
"The two people killed were both men. They had elderly parents and young children, and were the breadwinners of their families. The police said it was not excessive for them to ask for these."
"Right now, not only are we facing the two million, but we are also facing huge fines for hiring people without a driver's license."
"What should we do? We only have a few million left over the years, and now it's all gone."
"Let's do this for now. I can earn money later. Who made me have such a daughter? She has the ability to help her father but she didn't help me. She just watched me lose so much money."
"I told you, what's the point of her marrying into a wealthy family? She's so selfish and only cares about herself, not even her own father. Our Shanshan and Dongdong are the best. They're kind-hearted. If it were them, they wouldn't ignore us."
Wen Bowen is now increasingly dissatisfied with Wen Xi.
In the end, Wen Bowen still couldn't escape. He had to pay several million in compensation and fines. The family had limited cash flow, so he gave it all away.
What’s even worse is that because his logistics company had a major accident, the companies that cooperated with him terminated their contracts one after another, even the Linjiang branch of the Mu Group terminated their contract with them.
This is a big customer of their company.
At the Mu Group, Zhao Yi was reporting to Mu Yansen.
"Mr. Mu, something happened to Miss Wen's father's company, and our Linjiang branch has terminated the contract with him."
Mu Yansen was a little surprised.
"When did it happen?"
"Last night, two people were killed. More importantly, the driver's license was fake."
"I understand. Just handle it as you see fit."
"Mr. Mu, Wen Bowen and his wife came to Mu's this morning to look for you, but the people downstairs didn't let them in."
Mu Yansen raised his eyebrows and praised, "They did a great job. Give them a bonus this month."
Zhao Yi understood immediately. It seemed that Mr. Mu had no intention of caring about Miss Wen's father at all. It would be good for them to know his attitude so that they could get things done.
In the evening, Mu Yansen watched Wenxi come out of the bathroom and waved to her.
Wenxi came closer, and Mu Yansen exerted force, and Wenxi fell into his arms.
He couldn't help but touch the woman's skin, which was as white and tender as a baby's.
"Has Wen Bowen ever looked for you?"
Wenxi looked up and met a pair of deep black eyes that seemed to see through everything.
She guessed that Wen Bowen might have gone to find him.
"Mr. Mu, he came to see you, don't pay attention to him."
Mu Yansen's eyes darkened.
"It seems that he has also looked for you."
"He came to me this morning and wanted to see you, but I didn't let him."
"Why not?"
"Mr. Mu, you should know my relationship with him. Besides, this incident is no small matter. It involves human life. I can't let you help him."
Mu Yansen looked at her deeply.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Wen Bowen's company had no source of income and its cash flow was cut off because its partner companies terminated their contracts one after another.
The company was facing bankruptcy and employees were leaving one after another.
In order to make ends meet, Qin Min sold her jewelry and designer bags.
What she didn't expect was that the necklace left by Wenxi's mother Zhao Xiaoru was sold for five million.
This made her and Wen Bowen very happy.
"Hubby, where did Zhao Xiaoru get such a valuable necklace?"
Wen Bowen was also puzzled.
"I found... She wore this necklace when I knew her and never took it off until she died, then I took it off."
"I guess she picked it up somewhere too."
Wen Bowen pondered, Zhao Xiaoru couldn't be the daughter of some rich family.
When he found her, she was unconscious, so he took her home to take care of her.
She remembered nothing when she woke up.
I found Wen Bowen in a daze and pushed him.
"Hubby, what are you thinking about? You're so lost in thought."
Wen Bowen came back to his senses. "Nothing. Oh, by the way, don't let Wenxi know about the necklace. If she finds out her mother left a necklace and we sold it, she'll definitely make a fuss with us."
Qin Min rolled his eyes at him.
"I'm not stupid, so of course I won't tell her. Honey, with these five million, I won't have to sell my bags and jewelry, and your company can be saved."
"Um."
Wen Bowen couldn't help but thank Zhao Xiaoru, her necklace saved his life.
At the Li family in country b, Li Zhixing received a call.
"Mr. Li, the eldest lady's necklace has appeared."
Li Zhixing stood up suddenly.
"What did you say?"
"The eldest lady's necklace appeared in China."
"Take the necklace back and follow the chain to find out who took it."
"Okay, Mr. Li."
Soon, the necklace returned to the Li family.
When everyone in the Li family saw Li Huanhuan's necklace, they fell silent.
Li Wanchuan held the necklace with tears in his eyes.
"This is indeed Huanhuan's necklace. It was a birthday gift from me for her eighteenth birthday. Huanhuan loved it and wore it all the time. I never thought I'd still see it after all these years."
Li Wanchuan couldn't stop crying.
Li Shuwang patted his father on the back.
"Dad, don't get too excited. The doctor said..."
"I know. Don't worry. I won't fall down until I see Huanhuan."
"Have you found out who bought the necklace?"
Li Zhixing replied: "People in China are investigating."
