Lin Meixia took advantage of these days to sort out all her assets and found that even after confiscating her secret stash of money, she was still short a lot of money to cover the shortfall. So she launched a loan campaign to her family.
Unfortunately, her family was like a mythical creature that only takes in money and never gives it back. She couldn't borrow a single grain of rice, let alone money, and was even verbally abused by her sister-in-law, who had once fawned over her.
It turned out that her brothers' children all held considerable positions in the Xie family thanks to her influence. The Lin family also thought that their sister-in-law had secured power and enjoyed a long period of glory and pride in their hometown.
However, at the engagement banquet a few days ago, the Lin family members present witnessed a dramatic scene.
Zhao Zhixuan, a capable man in everyone's eyes, performed such a brainless scene that everyone was terrified that the Xie family would harm the Lin family's children.
But what did Lin Meixia say? She told them not to worry, that she was there to protect them, and that Lao Xie wouldn't do anything to them.
At that time, everyone thought that the old Xie she mentioned could only be a girl from the Lin family, even her own daughter had to take a backseat, and they were naturally very proud of themselves.
However, what happened next was completely different from what they had expected. Only after the Lin family members were successively expelled from the Xie family did they realize that Lin Meixia was nothing compared to Xie Ming.
The Lin family certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to ask Lin Meixia to intervene again. They had taken so many benefits; what if she investigated and made them give them back?
It's just a job, right? These days, as long as they don't pay the money back, they're all rich. They can just find any job to save face.
Therefore, the Lin family tacitly avoided contacting Lin Meixia and her son, but they never expected that the actual situation would be even worse than they had imagined.
Lin Meixia actually came limping over to borrow money, and the Lin family immediately realized she had been taught a lesson. They unanimously decided to scold her away first. As for the money, that good-for-nothing was better off not getting any!
Lin Meixia was furious that she couldn't get any money from her family. Her family used to be just peasants from the countryside, and they were so poor that they would have been grateful if they hadn't even been a burden to her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have had to beg Xie Ming for help back then.
Despite her family's lack of success, she never forgot to support them after she became wealthy.
She bought all the houses her brothers owned in the city. And she took care of all her nephews and nieces who are now in college or working!
Not to mention the businesses her older brother and sister-in-law, and younger brother and sister-in-law run now. Thinking of their past heartfelt friendship makes Lin Meixia want to vomit blood.
She was so angry that she didn't think about what Zhao Zhixuan had given her after taking over the Xie family in her previous life; otherwise, she would have slapped herself a few times.
Unable to get help from her family, Lin Meixia could only turn her attention back to her son. After much deliberation, she called Zhao Zhixuan to test the waters.
"Hey! What's your son doing?" Lin Meixia steadied herself and asked, pretending to be calm.
"I'm at work!" Zhao Zhixuan was in a good mood, having just finished discussing with an online hacker how to scam Xie Ming.
"Have you made any progress with Xie Ming?" Hearing the joy in her son's voice, Lin Meixia thought that there was some progress on Zhao Zhixuan's side, and her heart relaxed a little.
"Hmm! A little. What did Mom want to see me about?"
"It's alright. You've been at the company a lot these days and haven't been home much. I was worried you might have forgotten your follow-up appointment!"
"I only have superficial wounds, I'm fine now!"
Zhao Zhixuan, relying on his youth, was discharged from the hospital after only two days and spent most of his time at the company during that time.
After a long, loving conversation on the phone, Lin Meixia also managed to get a pretty good idea of her son's assets. Having achieved her goal, she quickly hung up the phone.
Thinking that there were still more than half a month before it was time to repay Xie Ming's money and assets, Lin Meixia calmed down and decided to rest her foot injury in the hospital before asking her son for help.
She had no idea that her future daughter-in-law was gradually emptying out all the valuables in her house.
Two more days passed, and Zhao Zhixuan arranged everything before realizing that he had been so busy dealing with the Xie family that he had been staying at the company for the past few days, and hadn't seen his Bai Yueguang much except for phone calls.
So he decided to go see his beloved and the baby in her belly. But he didn't forget his mother at the hospital and decided to bring her home with him.
Meanwhile, Miss Bai Yueguang, who received Zhao Zhixuan's call in her large apartment, quickly packed her last bag, put her phone on the sofa, and went out with her pregnant belly. Before leaving, she didn't forget to leave a note on the refrigerator saying she was going to the supermarket to buy things.
She took out her new phone, hailed a car, and took a deep breath of fresh air, sighing that she was finally free.
Zhao Zhixuan left the hospital with his men, trying to call Bai Yueguang on the way, but no one answered. Feeling a little anxious, he sped up his drive.
Lin Meixia was also very dissatisfied with that little vixen. During her hospitalization, she didn't even bother to visit. She even claimed to have an upset stomach. What could possibly be wrong with her stomach? It's just being pregnant!
Back in the penthouse, Zhao Zhixuan saw his phone ringing on the sofa as soon as he entered, thinking he must have forgotten it when he went out. He called out to everyone, but no one answered.
Lin Meixia first saw the note on the refrigerator and told her son, rather irritably, that the person had gone to the supermarket and that he shouldn't worry.
Her foot hadn't fully recovered; although she could walk, she couldn't stand for long periods. Seeing that her future daughter-in-law still knew to go out to buy groceries, she felt a little more at ease.
The mother and son lay comfortably on the sofa without anyone suggesting they go out to pick up the guests. They even sat in the living room chatting about repaying the money.
Time passed slowly, and as it approached lunchtime, Zhao Zhixuan sensed something was wrong. He didn't think much of it, assuming that something had happened to the person outside.
Lin Meixia was different; she had originally planned to rob her son's house. So when her future daughter-in-law disappeared, she had to think twice.
