Chapter 208 Protecting Ruoxi is my duty



Seeing her mother apologize, Lin Ruoxi quickly said, "Mom, you don't need to apologize. I didn't mean to blame you."

"Thanks to Ye Chen for arriving in time, he saved me this time."

"Otherwise, I would be in danger now, and I might not be able to come back."

Qin Xiulian heard that it was Ye Chen who saved her daughter.

This did make her a little embarrassed, and her expression didn't look very good.

Zhang Qiang, whom she had always trusted, almost ruined her daughter.

Ironically, it was the person he was prejudiced against who saved his daughter.

"Alright, alright, everyone's alright, that's all that matters."

Seeing his wife in an awkward situation, Lin Sanguo helped her out.

"Ruoxi, let's go home first. We can talk about it there."

Lin Sanguo said to Lin Ruoxi, then looked at Ye Chen.

"Ye Chen, thank you so much for today."

"Uncle, you flatter me. Ruoxi is my girlfriend, and protecting her is my duty."

Qin Xiulian frowned upon hearing Ye Chen's words, and immediately became somewhat displeased.

"Ruoxi, Three Kingdoms, let's go home now."

Despite Ye Chen saving her daughter, Qin Xiulian did not believe that Ye Chen was suitable for her daughter.

At worst, I'll just give them some money as a token of my gratitude.

At this moment, Qin Xiulian's impression of Ye Chen had not changed.

In her eyes, Ye Chen was still the same useless person.

A few minutes later, Ye Chen watched Lin Ruoxi and her family leave.

Ye Chen then left by car, and returned to his residence half an hour later.

The matter concerning Zhang Daguo and his son has been resolved.

Ye Chen believed that it wouldn't be long before the Zhang Group faced similar problems and became history.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Ye Chen entered a meditative state to cultivate the "Yin Yang Bible".

Hong Sihai, of Sihai Group, is listening to his subordinates report on their work.

"Fourth Master, we have obtained full evidence of the Zhang Group's crimes. What's the next step?" the man asked Hong Sihai.

"Die!" Hong Sihai said expressionlessly.

"Yes, Fourth Master, I'll take care of it right away," the man nodded and said.

Half an hour later, as Sihai Group submitted evidence of Zhang's Group's crimes to the relevant departments, multiple departments launched a joint operation.

The assets of the Zhang Group have been seized, and relevant personnel have been detained.

For a time, the Zhang Group was in complete chaos.

Companies that had cooperation or connections with the Zhang Group issued statements condemning it and simultaneously blacklisted the Zhang Group.

Ultimately, the Zhang Group went bankrupt under legal sanctions.

Lin Ruoxi and her family were very surprised when they learned the news.

"I never imagined that such a large Zhang Group could go bankrupt and collapse so easily."

Qin Xiulian said with a surprised tone.

The Zhang Group was doing well this morning, but announced its bankruptcy this afternoon.

The whole process only took a few hours.

"Evidence of the Zhang Group's crimes has been exposed, prompting a joint enforcement action by multiple departments."

"It's not surprising that the Zhang Group has ended up like this; it's normal."

Lin Sanguo said in a deep voice, a complex expression flashing across his face.

"It's a good thing Ruoxi didn't end up with Zhang Qiang, otherwise she would have been doomed."

Lin Sanguo wanted to express his relief, but Qin Xiulian was immediately displeased upon hearing this.

"Lin Sanguo, stop being sarcastic."

“I admit I misjudged Zhang Qiang. I’ve realized my mistake. What more do you want?”

"Do we really have to keep harping on this issue?"

"Xiulian, that's not what I meant."

"Why would I be sarcastic or mean to you? Don't misunderstand," Lin Sanguo quickly explained.

“Mom, Dad didn’t mean that,” Lin Ruoxi said.

Qin Xiulian snorted, "I think that's exactly what your father meant."

Lin Sanguo was immediately helpless and could only obediently shut up.

Lin Ruoxi thought for a moment and said, "Mom, we owe it all to Ye Chen this time."

"If Ye Chen hadn't saved me, I would be dead by now."

"So I'd like to invite Ye Chen over for dinner, is that alright?"

Qin Xiulian frowned, her expression showing displeasure.

"We made it clear beforehand that inviting him to our home for dinner was just a way of expressing our gratitude."

"But I still don't support you being with him."

“My opinion of him will not change at all, so don’t get your hopes up.”

Hearing her mother say this, Lin Ruoxi felt helpless. "Mom, why are you like this? Do you have to be prejudiced against him?"

“It’s not that I’m prejudiced against him, it’s just the truth.”

"In today's society, we value marriage between people of similar social standing," Qin Xiulian said firmly.

"Money, status, background, connections, etc., these things are all very important."

"Especially for a woman, you understand?"

"I don't care about any of that, as long as I love him."

"Besides, Ye Chen is not as useless as you say; he is also very outstanding."

Lin Ruoxi said, her eyes becoming very determined.

Seeing her daughter so determined, Qin Xiulian was truly disappointed in her.

"Mom, material things are important, but character is more important."

"Take Zhang Qiang for example, isn't that kind of insidious and despicable person even more terrifying?"

"Alright, alright, let's all keep quiet."

"Ruoxi, didn't you say you were inviting Ye Chen over for dinner? Why don't you give him a call?"

"Xiulian, you must be tired too. Why don't you go back to your room and rest?"

At this moment, Lin Sanguo quickly stepped in to smooth things over.

"Dad, Mom, I'm going back to my room first." Lin Ruoxi said and went back to her room.

"Lin Sanguo, whose side are you really on?"

Qin Xiulian glared angrily at her husband.
