"Wherever there are people, there are disputes. Although Hengxing is just a small company, the internal struggles are no less than those of a big family. When you meet someone who is against you, don't rush to tear your face off."

"Everyone has weaknesses and soft spots. What you need to do is to accurately find the enemy's weaknesses and kill them with one strike. There is no need to rush to the front in everything. On the battlefield, generals are deployed in the rear, and those who rush to the front will almost always become cannon fodder."

"Mom, I understand what you said. I'm not as useless as you think, okay?"

Yan Jing turned her head and glanced at him, a faint smile on her face, "When you become a parent in the future, you will understand how I feel now."

These words inevitably made Ning Yuan think of the "bastard" in Zhuang Xueqi's belly, and he suddenly felt depressed.

This damn woman actually dared to cheat on him.

…

The Zhong family.

Zhong Jiyuan looked at Zhong Qing with a smile, "Qingqing, at the shareholders' meeting next month, the fate of Third Uncle will depend entirely on you."

Zhong Qing nodded politely, "Uncle San, please rest assured. I will fully support you in taking over as the new chairman of the pharmaceutical factory."

"With your words, Uncle San is relieved. By the way, your father has been abroad for treatment for so long, has his health improved?"

Zhong Qing shook her head. "I talked to Mom on the phone a few days ago. She said that the hope of recovery was slim. I persuaded her to come back, but she refused to do so and wanted to find another doctor to try again."

Zhong Jiyuan showed regret on his face, but he couldn't hide the smile in his eyes.

The First Pharmaceutical Factory was co-founded by Mr. Zhong and the provincial government when he was still alive, and he held 49% of the shares.

Before the old man died, he distributed his shares among his three sons.

As the eldest son, Zhong Jiping received the largest share, 15%.

As for the rest, Old Mrs. Zhong got 10%, the second son Zhong Jize and the third son Zhong Jiyuan each got 12%.

Zhong Jize is a compulsive gambler and has lost most of his fortune over the years. Now he has only 5% of his 12% stake.

When Zhong Jiping got into trouble, the third brother, Zhong Jiyuan, held the most shares among the three brothers.

But compared with the provincial government which holds the largest stake, Zhong Jiyuan's 12% stake is far from enough to take the position of chairman.

Unless Zhong Qing is willing to fully support Zhong Jiyuan with the 27% stake he holds on behalf of others.

Although the provincial government holds a large number of shares, they are jointly controlled by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, China Investment Corporation and Sinopharm. The three parties operate independently and fight openly and secretly, which gives Zhong Jiyuan an opportunity.

Therefore, compared with Zhong Qing, Zhong Jiyuan does not want Zhong Jiping to recover even more.

As soon as Zhong Jiping came back, he had nothing to do.

Zhong Qing took a sip of tea and said to Zhong Jiyuan, "Third Uncle, my dad won't be back for a while. You and Second Uncle will have to comfort Grandma."

"Qingqing, don't worry, I will talk to your grandma."

Old Mrs. Zhong is in poor health and has been recuperating outside the city for many years.

After Zhong Jiping got into trouble, everyone in the family was worried that the old lady couldn't bear it, so they kept the truth from her.

But she could hide it for a while, not forever. Old Mrs. Zhong eventually found out that the eldest son had become a disabled person.

After coming back, she made a fuss several times and insisted that Zhong Qing call Chu Yuqing, but Zhong Qing always evaded the question with various excuses.

This is not a solution. The truth will eventually come to light.

After seeing Zhong Jiyuan off, Zhong Qing drove away from home alone and got on the national highway.

…

Chu Yuqing walked into the reception room under the guidance of the caregiver.

Seeing Zhong Qing on the other side of the iron bars, she immediately rushed over in ecstasy and talked to Zhong Qing through the iron bars.

"Qingqing, you're finally here, can you take me out? Please take me out!"

Looking at Chu Yuqing's right eye covered with thick gauze, Zhong Qing was slightly surprised.

"What happened to your eyes?"

The caregiver explained: "When Mr. Zhang was ill, he accidentally poked Ms. Liu's right eye with his chopsticks."

In order to erase all traces, Chu Yuqing and Zhong Jiping used pseudonyms when they registered for admission to the hospital.

Zhong Qing nodded, "Then can she still see with her right eye?"

The nurse shook her head.

Zhong Qing looked at Chu Yuqing and smiled, "It seems that even Dad thinks you are blind."

Chu Yuqing cried and begged her, "Qingqing, I was wrong. I know I was wrong. Can you forgive me? Please let me out. I will do anything as long as you can let me out."

Seeing Chu Yuqing's body covered with wounds of varying sizes, one can imagine how much suffering she is going through in here.

In other words, Zhong Jiping is unable to move now, otherwise, Chu Yuqing would have become a corpse long ago.

"You can do anything?"

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

Chu Yuqing nodded desperately.

"Okay, then go and die. When you die, I will definitely take you back and give you a grand funeral."

Chu Yuqing was stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage, cursing with the most vicious words. After she finished cursing and saw that Zhong Qing didn't react, she apologized tearfully and even knelt down to beg.

Like a schizophrenia.

Zhong Qing watched the other person's performance without changing her expression. "Don't even think about getting out. I can't let a tiger go back to the mountain. However, I can arrange for you to be in another ward."

These words undoubtedly gave Chu Yuqing hope, "Qingqing, you don't hate me that much, right? Then can you let me go?"

Zhong Qing opened the letter in her hand and said, "Just copy it in your own handwriting."

After seeing the contents of the letter, Chu Yuqing's face was instantly filled with anger and fear.

"What do you want to do?!"

"I won't do anything to you. I just wrote this letter for grandma. You must hate her a lot. If she had been willing to help you back then, you wouldn't have lost the baby in your belly."

"Now, I'll give you a chance for revenge. She indirectly killed your two children. You made her lose a son. That's fair, isn't it?"

Chu Yuqing stared at her blankly and didn't say anything for a long time.

Does she hate the old lady? Of course.

He knew that she was pregnant and watched her son commit domestic violence without doing anything. In order to save Zhong Jiping's face, he even sent all the servants away, leaving her no chance to ask for help.

"I can write, but you have to let me out of here."

Chu Yuqing tried to negotiate terms.

Zhong Qing raised her eyebrows. "How difficult do you think it would be for me to find someone who can imitate your handwriting?"

Chu Yuqing's face was gloomy. "We are mother and daughter after all. Do you have to kill me? You can't blame me entirely. If I hadn't given birth to you, your father wouldn't have treated me like that."

"It's you who can't judge people well, it's you who is fickle, what does it have to do with me? Why should I pay for your failures and mistakes?"

Seeing that there was no hope of leaving, Chu Yuqing had no choice but to write a "suicide note" as Zhong Qing said.

Zhong Qing took the letter and prepared to leave, but Chu Yuqing suddenly called her, "Qingqing, can you come to see me more often?"

Zhong Qing stopped and turned around, "I won't come again."

"Yan Yi and I have already set a wedding date. Yin Yin won the runner-up in the piano competition, and Xiao Min got first place in the midterm exam. Every day when you and dad are not around, we are extremely happy."

Looking at her resolute back, Chu Yuqing fell to the ground and burst into tears.

It was already 11 o'clock in the evening when we returned to the Zhong family.

Zhong Qing first went to the third floor to check on Zhong Yin and Zhong Min's sleeping conditions, then returned to the study on the second floor, picked up the phone on the desk and dialed. (End of this chapter)
