As soon as Chen Xun stepped into the study, Meng Yingnian asked, "Have you investigated the Zhao family's affairs?"

"Everything has been checked."

Chen Xun hurriedly closed the door, walked forward quickly, and handed over the sorted information with both hands.

While Meng Yingnian was flipping through the book, Chen Xun was giving a brief oral account beside him.

The general situation was similar to what Zhao Lian told Yu Zhi.

The Zhao family was heavily in debt before Zhao Lian's father fell ill, and the company was on the verge of bankruptcy.

After Zhao Lian's father fell ill, Zhao Lian's mother went everywhere to raise money for her husband's medical expenses. She borrowed money from all relatives and friends and sold all the family property that could be sold.

Unfortunately, all the efforts were in vain. Within half a year, Zhao Lian's father became terminally ill and passed away, leaving the orphan and his widowed mother with a mess.

Nowadays, Zhao Lian’s relatives and friends avoid them when they see them, for fear that they will ask them to borrow money again.

In order to pay off her debts, Zhao Lian's mother worked three jobs and lived in a dirty and shabby village in the city. She went from being a wealthy lady who had never done any housework to a person at the bottom of society who had to struggle to make a living.

Zhao Lian also works part-time in addition to attending classes to earn money to help his mother share the debt.

Zhao Lian did intend to play the victim to Yu Zhi, but his current life was indeed not very good.

After Chen Xun finished his narration, Meng Yingnian also went through the information in his hand.

Meng Yingnian put down the information and tapped a line on the paper.

"The Zhao family owes Rongming Bank one million, and it's due next month."

Chen Xun lowered his eyebrows and glanced.

Meng Yingnian didn't say everything, but as the chief secretary, listening carefully is a necessary skill.

Chen Xun immediately understood what Meng Yingnian meant and said slowly, "Rongming has always wanted to get a piece of Huachuang's business in Shanghai."

Rongming is a private bank in Shanghai.

After being acquired by a wealthy foreign businessman a few years ago, it changed its business strategy and focused on lending and foreign exchange as its main businesses. In the past two years, it has emerged as a prominent figure in the banking industry and is now at its peak.

What makes this bank different from its peers is its low loan threshold.

Rongming approves loans for many customers with unhealthy credit limits that other banks cannot approve.

It is said that there are foreign mafia forces behind Rongming.

For those debtors who refuse to pay back their debts, Rong Ming has plenty of ways to make them pay up.

Of course, this sounds too cruel, and whether it is true or not remains to be verified.

Outsiders don’t know Rong Ming’s background, but the Meng family has been in the business world for many years, and their connections are intertwined all over the world. They have long formed a powerful information network, so they naturally know much more about Rong Ming than the outside world.

The mafia does exist, but they don’t engage in the illegal activities depicted in movies and TV dramas.

Rongming has an extremely professional legal team. Customers with unhealthy credit limits will sign an agreement when their loans are approved.

If the debt cannot be repaid when due, Rongming will use legal means to send the debtor abroad to do hard labor until the debt is paid off.

There are also some debt collection methods that are not acceptable.

It’s just that the legal team strictly controls the scale, and the company has never alarmed the higher-ups and has always been a legal and compliant enterprise.

Simply put, he is a ruthless person with a ruthless hand, but he has a bottom line when doing things.

Rongming's focus on Huachuang's business is simply to carry out industrial transformation.

Having accumulated capital by operating in the gray area, the next step is naturally to fully formalize.

Rongming has gradually conveyed its intention to cooperate to Huachuang through multiple media outlets, but Meng Yingnian has never given a clear answer.

After thinking for a moment, Meng Yingnian said, "If you want to get a piece of the pie from Huachuang, you have to see if they have a big enough bowl."

Chen Xun asked, "Mr. Meng, are you trying to put pressure on the Zhao family through Rong Ming?"

Meng Yingnian smiled faintly: "If they want to show their courtesy, then give them a chance."

In addition to dealing with the Zhao family, Meng Yingnian has other plans.

For example, the Yu family.

Shanghai is Yu Zhi's hometown, and Rong Ming is the local tyrant in Shanghai.

After all, Beijing and Shanghai are far apart, and it is inevitable that distant water cannot put out a nearby fire.

If he can use Rong Ming, the local tyrant, for his own benefit, then if the Yu family becomes restless in the future, the situation will not be out of his control.

He has to take precautions against any problems that may arise concerning Yu Zhi.

Chen Xun's vision is far less far-sighted than Meng Yingnian's.

Meng Yingnian thinks ten steps ahead before he takes one step. He is very cunning and his thoughts are difficult to predict.

After pondering Meng Yingnian's meaning for a while, Chen Xun was somewhat confused and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Meng Yingnian glanced at Chen Xun and said calmly, "If you have something to say, just say it."

Chen Xun spoke cautiously, "Mr. Meng, is it necessary to make such a fuss over a mere Zhao Lian? If you want him to move out of Mr. Yu's dormitory, there are plenty of ways..."

Meng Yingnian said firmly, "The Meng family cannot be involved in this matter, and Yu Zhi cannot be implicated."

Chen Xun asked doubtfully: "This..."

Is he afraid that the Zhao family will know who did it and thus offend the Zhao family?

The Zhao family is nothing more than an ant that can be crushed to death with one foot. How can there be a tiger in this world that is afraid of ants?

But Chen Xun didn't dare to say this directly. Although this was the truth, it was also a true usurpation of power.

Meng Yingnian only said one sentence.

"Yu Zhi wants to live a low-key and ordinary life."

Chen Xun suddenly realized.

Then I couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

A wealthy noble like Meng Yingnian is actually willing to be the man behind his wife...

President, don't love me too much!

Meng Yingnian instructed Chen Xun: "Go to Shanghai in person and meet with the person in charge of Rongming."

"I don't want Yu Zhi to have to face Zhao Lian when he returns to the dormitory tomorrow."

This meant that Zhao Lian had to leave before Yu Zhi returned to the dormitory.

Chen Xun didn't dare to neglect it and said seriously, "Okay, Mr. Meng."

"I'll do it right away."

Meng Yingnian said "hmm".

Yu Zhi played with Suo Suo at the zoo until after two o'clock.

Suosuo usually has the habit of taking a nap, and he yawns all the time in the afternoon.

But he wanted to stay with Yu Zhi for a while longer and refused to go back to the yard to take a nap. He forced himself to stay awake and insisted that he was not sleepy at all.

Yu Zhi had no choice but to use the same trick again and said that he was sleepy and wanted to sleep.

Suosuo immediately led Yu Zhi back to his room like a little adult.

"Suo Suo's bed is for my aunt to sleep in."

Suosuo pulled Yu Zhi to lie down, took out her storybook, and told Yu Zhi stories just like her mother told her every night.

Yu Zhikuai was so cute.

As a result, Yu Zhi didn't fall asleep after talking for less than two minutes, but Suo Suo coaxed herself to sleep.

Yu Zhi carried Suosuo to the bed, took off his shoes and socks, covered him with a small quilt, quietly left the room, and returned to the yard where he and Meng Yingnian lived.

When Yu Zhi stepped into the gate, he happened to meet Meng Yingnian coming out. It seemed that he was going to look for him.

Yu Zhi noticed that Meng Yingnian didn't have a cane again, and frowned and scolded him: "You didn't use a cane, and you forgot about it because your legs hurt so much and you couldn't sleep last night?"

Meng Yingnian felt guilty and laughed, "It's only a few steps away. I didn't expect the golf cart to be parked outside the courtyard gate."

Yu Zhi glared at him: "Don't you know how big the yard is? It's already hundreds of steps in just two steps!"

Meng Yingnian didn't dare to argue anymore: "I was wrong, Zhizhi."

Yu Zhi snorted.

Although he was talking fiercely, he went to support Meng Yingnian.

As they walked, he became concerned: "Does your leg still hurt? Why don't you ask Yu Ning to come over and take a look? I'm afraid I didn't treat you well last night."

Meng Yingnian smiled and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore, don't be nervous."

He deliberately changed the subject: "Do you have anything to do this afternoon?"

Yu Zhi shook his head: "No, I originally planned to accompany Suosuo, but when I left, the housekeeper in my sister-in-law's courtyard said that Suosuo would sleep until about five o'clock."

There was a family dinner in the evening, and it was time to go out for the dinner, so it was naturally impossible for me to paint at home.

Meng Yingnian took the opportunity to suggest, "How about we go out for a walk? It's a rare weekend when we're all free."

Yu Zhiwei was stunned: "Where to?"

"It doesn't matter, we can go anywhere. What matters is the two of us."

Meng Yingnian took Yu Zhi's hand and said, "It's been so long since we got the marriage certificate, but we haven't had a date yet, Madam."
