Lin Ruoxi put down her phone, her brows furrowed.
A hint of heaviness appeared on her delicate face, and her beautiful eyes gazed out the window.
"The Zhang Group wants to lift its suppression of the Lin Group."
Lin Ruoxi murmured softly, her heart heavy with sorrow rather than joy.
When Zhang Qiang first came to her, his attitude was very tough.
It's impossible to lift the oppression unless she becomes his woman.
Later, Lin Ruoxi even went to the Zhang Group in person to find Zhang Daguo.
However, Zhang Daguo also demanded that she be with his son.
Less than a day later, the Zhang Group was about to lift its pressure on the Lin Group.
Lin Ruoxi was so cautious because she couldn't understand it.
"Knock knock knock!" A knock came at the door.
Yang Hong pushed open the door and walked in. "President Lin, what can I do for you?"
"How's the situation down there?" Lin Ruoxi asked.
Yang Hong looked grave and shook her head, saying, "The situation is still not very optimistic."
"All business projects involving the Zhang Group have been suspended."
"Even the Sihai Group's department stores were affected as a result."
"If the Zhang Group continues to suppress us, we will be unable to complete the renovation of the Sihai Group shopping mall on time, and the situation will be dire."
Upon hearing Yang Hong's report, Lin Ruoxi's expression grew even more somber, a sense of unease creeping into her heart, and her breathing became noticeably rapid.
"If we are unable to complete the project on schedule, we will face breach of contract compensation."
Yang Hong said, looking at Lin Ruoxi with a heavy expression.
"Breach of contract compensation is one thing, but the company's reputation will be damaged."
“This problem is even more serious,” Lin Ruoxi said with a grave expression.
Yang Hong fell silent as she listened.
Lin Ruoxi bit her lip, thinking of the phone call her mother had just given her.
Although Lin Ruoxi didn't know why Zhang Daguo and his son had changed their attitude.
But she felt she still had to go and see what the other party wanted.
Of course, there's one thing Lin Ruoxi will absolutely not budge on.
It's impossible for her to be with Zhang Qiang. Her love belongs only to Ye Chen.
"I understand, you can go out now," Lin Ruoxi said.
“Okay, Mr. Lin.” Yang Hong nodded, then turned and left.
At the same time, Qin Xiulian and Lin Sanguo just left their house and took a car to go there.
Qin Xiulian had a happy smile on her face.
"I always said Zhang Qiang was just putting on an act."
“How could he possibly bear to harm Ruoxi?” Qin Xiulian said with a smile.
"Look, it hasn't even been a day since the crackdown started."
"Zhang Qiang called and said he would stop suppressing them and wanted to settle."
"Ruoxi really needs to be talked to."
"Why give up such a good-for-nothing as Zhang Qiang as a son-in-law?"
In Qin Xiulian's eyes, Ye Chen was utterly useless and only wanted to live off her daughter.
"Ye Chen is a real scoundrel."
"Tell me, he's a grown man with hands and feet, can't he earn his own money?"
"They insist on resorting to these underhanded methods and living off their wives."
Half an hour later, Qin Xiulian and Lin Sanguo got out of the car.
The two looked around and realized that the agreed meeting place was in the suburbs.
"Xiulian, why would Zhang Qiang arrange to meet here? There's no one here."
Lin Sanguo said in a deep voice, his brows furrowing.
Qin Xiulian, however, didn't seem to care and smiled. "Rich people like this."
"Those wealthy people also like to go to the countryside to experience life."
"I think it's a good idea to meet here."
"Look, there are mountains, water, and wind. This place is wonderful, and the scenery is beautiful."
Qin Xiulian was completely unaware of the impending danger.
Qin Xiulian is now filled with the joy of reconciliation and has no time to think about anything else.
"Alright, alright, stop being so paranoid."
"Do you think Zhang Qiang would lie to us? Let's go, let's not keep them waiting."
At this moment, Zhang Daguo and Zhang Qiang were sitting on stone benches in the pavilion.
Behind the two stood several helpers they had brought.
"We don't have much time left. This plan must succeed, or we're finished."
Zhang Daguo said with a heavy expression.
"Don't worry, Dad, Ruoxi's parents trust me completely," Zhang Qiang said.
Zhang Daguo nodded and continued to wait.
About ten minutes later, Qin Xiulian and Lin Sanguo appeared in the pavilion.
Upon seeing the two appear, Zhang Qiang immediately stepped forward to greet them.
"Uncle and Aunt, you've arrived."
Zhang Qiang smiled and said warmly, "Uncle and Aunt, come, come, please have a seat."
"Uncle and Auntie, this is my dad."
"Dad, these are Ruoxi's parents."
"Hello, Chairman Zhang," Qin Xiulian said.
"Xiaoqiang often tells me how great you all are."
"Seeing it today, it is indeed so," Zhang Daguo said with a feigned insincerity.
"Ruoxi is exceptionally talented and incredibly intelligent."
"Xiaoqiang often talks about how outstanding Ruoxi is in front of me, and I think that's absolutely true."
Qin Xiulian smiled brightly when she heard Zhang Daguo's words.
"Chairman Zhang, you flatter me. You are the truly outstanding ones."
"The Zhang Group is a large and powerful family business, and Chairman Zhang is the one who is truly talented."
"Zhang Qiang is a very good person; like father, like son."
"We have all seen the support that the Zhang Group has given to the Lin Group."
"Thank you very much, Chairman Zhang, and of course, thank you Zhang Qiang as well."
"Auntie, you're too kind. My feelings for Ruoxi are genuine."
"There are no disadvantages to Ruoxi being with me; this is a win-win situation."
