Xiao Xiao saw An Ran in such a state and didn’t ask any more questions. Instead, she chatted with her about other things until their phones were about to run out of battery and they finally hung up the call.
An Ran thought the issue with Chen Shanshan was over after that, but to her surprise, in less than two days, Chen Wanli visited their ho again. This ti not only Chen Wanli and his wife, but Chen Shanshan herself also ca.
In the living room, An Ran looked at Chen Shanshan, who was sobbing like a pear blossom bathed in rain, and Chen Wanli, whose face was full of sorrow. She turned to Mu Xingfeng in confusion.
Mu Xingfeng was still as cold and elegant as ever, his long legs crossed in front of him, one hand resting on the back of the sofa behind An Ran, and the other gently pinching An Ran’s small hand. His whole deanor was lazy and casual.
He didn’t even raise his eyelids to look at the delicate beauty in front of him.
Chen Wanli looked at Mu Xingfeng in front of him, feeling hundreds of regrets in his heart. Back then, he had the audacity to threaten this man, even thinking he could go all out if things ca to the worst. Little did he know, in just two days, his company’s funds had already run dry.
And more importantly, at yesterday’s bidding eting, the land in the West Suburb was also taken by the Mu Group.
It should be noted that this piece of land was crucial for Yang Wanli. His confidence that day mostly stemd from the expectation of securing that land.
The company Chen Wanli ran was only a subsidiary of the Wanfeng Group, but due to his relationship with President Chen Wanfeng, it always held a significant position. Particularly, those older shareholders often gave him so respect.
But Chen Wanli was not satisfied with that. Chen Wanfeng was twelve years older than him and had overworked himself in his early years, leading to failing health. Now in his fifties, managing the company was becoming increasingly difficult for him. On the other hand, Chen Yankun was still young, making this mont a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity for Chen Wanli.
Half a year ago, he began his maneuvers. Securing the land in the West Suburb was his first step in infiltrating the parent company.
However, he never imagined that the Mu Group would be present at yesterday’s bidding eting, with none other than the Mu Family President, Mu Wanxin, attending in person.
In the Imperial City, any plot of land desired by the Mu Group was unattainable to others. Their financial prowess was astonishing, and no one wanted to offend the great Mu Family, given their standing in the Imperial City.
In recent years, the Mu Family’s business interests had shifted from traditional comrce and real estate to software developnt and electronic products. Moreover, there hadn’t been any information indicating the Mu Group would participate in the bidding. Thus, the only explanation was that the Mu Group targeted this specifically.
And the target, without a doubt, was him, Chen Wanli.
Seeing his company on the brink of bankruptcy, with no imdiate support from the parent company, Yang Wanli had no choice but to bring his daughter to plead with Mu Xingfeng, hoping for rcy.
"Brother Mu, Shanshan truly knows she was wrong. Please, Brother Mu, don’t make Shanshan leave the Imperial City, leave her father and mother. I promise, from now on, wherever Miss An appears, I will never show up."
Chen Shanshan tearfully pleaded, looking pitifully into Mu Xingfeng’s eyes. If An Ran could ignore the flash of hatred in her eyes when she first saw her, An Ran might have been moved by her sincerity.
Xue ihua’s heart broke listening to her daughter. Her daughter didn’t want to leave them, and how could they bear to leave her? It was all that woman’s fault. Who knows what kind of witchcraft that woman cast on Young Master Mu to make him go to such lengths for her.
