"I don't want to talk to you."
Yun Wanqing grabbed Yun Suiwan's arm. "Sister," she began to fawn over her again, "I'm finally going to marry into the Lin family, and I want to live a good life from now on. Can you let me off the hook?"
Yun Suiwan found it amusing, "When you did this, did you ever think about letting me off the hook?"
"In the past ten years or so, every time you bullied me, did you ever think of letting me off the hook?"
Yun Wanqing was speechless.
"You'd better just wait for the police to come and arrest you."
Yun Suiwan turned to leave, but Yun Wanqing grabbed her tightly.
She knew that if she were arrested by the police, she would lose everything.
"Sister, sister, please let me go this time! I'll do anything you ask!" Yun Wanqing pleaded desperately.
"It's too late to say all this now." Yun Suiwan shook off her hand and continued walking forward.
“It’s not too late, not at all…” Yun Wanqing pressed on.
Yun Suiwan was getting annoyed. She stopped and thought for a moment, then said, "Fine, if you tell Lin Zhibai about this, I'll let you off the hook."
"...Will Lin Zhibai still marry me...?" Yun Wanqing was stunned.
"That's your problem then." Yun Suiwan raised an eyebrow. "I'll give you three days, or I'll do it for you."
After saying that, she got into the car and left.
There is no room for maneuver.
Yun Wanqing grew angrier the more she thought about it, and finally realized that Yun Suiwan's true purpose was to ruin the marriage that she had worked so hard to get.
"Miss, why did you give her three more days?" Xiao Wu asked in the car, puzzled.
People like Yun Wanqing should be killed outright, without giving her any chance.
Yun Suiwan smiled and said, "Guess how she'll spend these three days?"
Xiao Wu thought for a moment, "They'll definitely try many ways to make a last-ditch effort."
"That's right, she will definitely suffer a lot in these three days."
“She has done so many bad things, how can we not let her suffer a little?”
When Yun Wanqing returned home, she sat blankly on the sofa, looking like a wilted eggplant.
"What's wrong?" Chen Lizhen was very puzzled; she had seemed quite happy when she answered the phone just now.
Yun Wanqing glared at her resentfully, "It's all your fault! What a terrible idea you came up with! Now I'm completely trapped by Yun Suiwan!"
When Chen Lizhen learned the whole story, she was also taken aback.
She never expected that Yun Suiwan would have such a backup plan.
She had to come up with a solution for Yun Wanqing, otherwise this matter would implicate her.
“Why should she interfere in your marriage with Young Master Lin?” Chen Lizhen said. “As long as you hold onto Young Master Lin, no matter what that bitch Yun Suiwan does, she can’t do anything about it.”
"Does she think she can stop Young Master Lin from marrying you? Does she even have the power to stop him?!"
Yun Wanqing thought about it and realized that there was some truth to what she said.
But how can we do that?
Although she and Lin Zhibai talked about marriage, he hasn't touched her yet.
“Then you’d better hurry up,” Chen Lizhen glanced at Yun Wanqing, “You have everything you need, as long as you put in a little effort, I believe Young Master Lin won’t be able to resist.”
"Besides, didn't Young Master Lin say he was going to invest in you? You should hurry up and get this project done. He's already invested all the money, what's there to be afraid of him running away?"
Yun Wanqing smiled. "Mom, after all this time, you've finally come up with two reliable ideas."
Without any hesitation, the two found Mr. Huo immediately.
Yun Wanqing presented the investment contract to Huo's father.
After carefully reviewing the document, Mr. Huo nodded repeatedly in satisfaction. "Excellent! With this cooperation, we won't have to worry about making money for the next 20 years."
“Look how capable Wanqing is,” Chen Lizhen said proudly, raising her chin. “This is just the beginning. Once she becomes Mrs. Lin, she can have as many contracts like this as she wants.”
Mr. Huo nodded repeatedly.
"Dad, what are you waiting for?" Yun Wanqing urged, "Hurry up and sign it!"
Mr. Huo smiled and said, "Signing is no problem, but we still need to go through some procedures. Such a big collaboration requires discussion by the board of directors."
"Why aren't you making money when you can? What are you talking about?" Chen Lizhen snorted in dissatisfaction.
"It's just a formality, it'll be quick."
Mr. Huo immediately instructed his secretary to summon all the board members to the conference room.
Chen Lizhen and her daughter stood in a corner of the corridor. When they saw Huo Beichen arrive, they couldn't help but exchange a worried glance.
"With Huo Beichen around, nothing good is ever going to happen!" Chen Lizhen cursed.
"Then you'd better think of a solution quickly," Yun Wanqing said irritably.
Chen Lizhen led her to the back door of the conference room, and quietly pushed the closed door open a crack to peek inside.
"I disagree!" Sure enough, when everyone had read the contract and given their opinions, Huo Beichen was the first to voice his opposition.
Mr. Huo frowned: "Tell me your reasons."
“We have never cooperated with the Lin family,” Huo Beichen said. “Why would they give us a contract that guarantees a profit? If you were in their shoes, what would you do?”
"You mean there's a trap in this contract?" Mr. Huo asked.
"That's right."
“Beichen, I think you’re overthinking it,” one of the older directors said. “I heard that the second young lady is preparing to marry Young Master Lin. This is Young Master Lin’s betrothal gift to President Huo, and it’s different from a normal cooperation.”
“Yes, this contract is practically a gift,” another director said.
“There’s no such thing as a free lunch,” Huo Beichen retorted. “Besides, betrothal gifts should always be something tangible. This contract only anticipates making money, and who knows what might happen in the end? I think it’s really insincere!”
These statements are all reasonable, and some of the directors nodded in agreement.
Yun Wanqing couldn't take it anymore and suddenly pushed open the door, barking at Huo Beichen: "Huo Beichen, what makes you think that Brother Zhibai isn't sincere with me? Have you ever been married to a rich man? What makes you think this is impractical as a betrothal gift?"
"Just because you failed to marry into a wealthy family yourself, does that mean I can't join one?"
The crowd couldn't help but discuss among themselves, as Yun Wanqing's words were tantamount to slapping Huo Beicheng in the face.
“Beichen,” Mr. Huo said seriously, “do you know what this project means to us?”
"As long as I spread the word that the Lin family is willing to cooperate with us, we can get back many projects that we couldn't get before, and the banks will have the confidence to continue lending to us. Even if the project that Young Master Lin gave us doesn't work out, we have already benefited a lot from it."
"Dad, why are you explaining all this to him! Do you think he can understand?" Yun Wanqing scoffed dismissively.
Huo Beichen's face turned ashen, and he gave a cold laugh: "Don't be too happy yet. Let's wait until he actually signs it before we talk about it."
"Furthermore, public opinion campaigning is a double-edged sword; if it goes too far, only the Huo Group will be harmed."
"Hopefully, someone will be held accountable for this in the future."
After saying that, he got up and left without saying goodbye to anyone.
The board members exchanged glances, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
Mr. Huo's attitude also changed. "Wanqing," he said, "I can sign this contract. Take it over and have Young Master Lin sign it as soon as possible."
