"Of course, of course. Neither Shen Guodong nor Zhou Mingzhang are good people. There's no need to compare them. Why do you have to pick a general from a group of cripples?"

Li Siwei shook her head and felt that her previous comparison was meaningless.

Because whether it's Chi Manning or He Yushan, they are just pitiful people who met the wrong people...

"But, I still think it's unreliable to use one man to heal the damage caused by another man. Your eldest sister's decision back then... well, it was still a bit too hasty..."

Although it may seem like she is wise after the event and is talking without any concern, that's how she feels.

"What you just said is actually what my mother said."

Chi Yuheng curled his lips, looking at the girl beside him with a smile in his eyes. "My mother also thinks that my sister's attempt to escape Jingbei by marrying Zhou Mingzhang and stop the rumors is a very unacceptable method. Unfortunately, my sister has a strong personality and can't stand being laughed at the most, let alone being used as a topic of conversation for people to have fun after dinner."

"So, when she encountered Zhou Mingzhang's passionate pursuit, she agreed without much consideration and became his girlfriend. In a very short time, she also accepted Zhou Mingzhang's proposal and resolutely married him in Haicheng..."

"She's not getting married..."

Li Siwei pursed her lips, "She's proving it!"

“It’s really proving it.”

Chi Yuheng nodded. "My sister wanted to use this method to stop the rumors and gossip in Jingbei and prove that she, Chi Manning, is not an unwanted tomboy. Even without relying on family marriage, she can find someone who truly loves and cares for her."

"Unfortunately……"

"She lost the bet..." Li Siwei said softly.

"Yes, I lost, and lost miserably."

Chi Yuheng unconsciously drew circles on the rim of the cup with his fingertips. "After being pressured by the mistress and falling and giving birth to Zhou Chengfeng prematurely, my sister actually thought very firmly about getting a divorce."

"However, by then, she had already given birth to two sons for Zhou Mingzhang, and she would often return home to ask for resources and business for Zhou Mingzhang and the Zhouzheng Group..."

"And the man she had once run away from for marriage has returned home in glory with his wife and children."

"Whether it's Guoyu Group, He Yushan, who is in a free relationship with Shen Guodong, or even Shen Jinxing, each of them is a thorn in my sister's heart."

"She wouldn't allow herself to be put in this embarrassing situation of being cheated on and forced into divorce when her partner was at the peak of his career. She also didn't want to be talked about and laughed at by others."

"So, even though her whole family supported her divorce, she still decided to give Zhou Mingzhang another chance, just like she was determined to marry in Haicheng in the first place."

Li Siwei: “…”

After hearing this, Li Siwei actually didn't know how to comment.

All I can say is that Chi Manning is an adult. Except for the time when Shen Guodong used her as a shield and didn't have the courage to escape, every decision she made afterwards was made by herself.

If that's the case, then she should bear the consequences of these decisions.

Just...respect the fate of others.

"Then this time you use the Ding family to let the Zhou family..."

Li Siwei tilted her head, her eyes showing clear meaning.

"Well, I just hope my sister can take this opportunity to see Zhou Mingzhang's true face and stop wasting her time in this muddle-headed way." Chi Yuheng admitted generously.

He smiled, "Besides, ever since Shen Guodong married Zhao Lingzi and brought his illegitimate daughter into the family, which pissed off Old Master Shen to death and even made Old Madam Shen retreat to a Taoist temple, Shen Guodong himself has become a joke."

"Now, even if my sister and Zhou Mingzhang divorce, with the Shen family's precious treasures before her, no one will talk about her anymore. Perhaps... she can let go of her worries and take this step."

"I hope that this time she can make a decision that she won't regret..." Li Siwei's lips curled up, and her tone was sincere.

But then she thought of something and said, "What about Brother Yunqi? The Zhou family is gone, so what about him..."

"If it doesn't break, it won't stand."

Chi Yuheng's eyes were deep. "Zhou Chengfeng was born prematurely, and my sister has always felt guilty about him. Later, in order to cope with the failure of her marriage, she focused almost all her attention on him, spoiling him into a good-for-nothing who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun."

"But Yunqi was born as the next generation leader of the Zhou family, personally raised by Old Master Zhou. Whether it's his knowledge, vision, cognition, or ability to manage subordinates, he far surpasses his useless father by a mile."

"So, I'm not worried about Yunqi... On the contrary, I think this crisis of the Zhou family may be an opportunity for him, a perfect chance to complete the transition of power in the Zhou family."

Seeing some confusion in the girl's eyes, he continued, "Do you know Yunqi's second and third uncles?"

"I know." Li Siwei nodded.

I remember hearing my father and mother say that the second and third sons of the Zhou family were brothers from the same mother as Zhou Mingzhang, so from the beginning, Grandpa Zhou wanted to let his three sons compete fairly.

Whoever is more capable will take over the Zhou family.

Although Zhou Mingzhang is the eldest son of the Zhou family, he is just a boss with no real ability or skills compared to his two younger brothers.

He should have had no hope of inheriting the family business, but he was lucky enough to marry Chi Manning.

As the eldest daughter of the Chi family in northern Beijing, she has been influenced by her family since childhood. Her talent and skills in business are probably her least noteworthy abilities.

So with the help of Chi Manning, Zhou Mingzhang finally defeated the two brothers and took over the company and family power from Mr. Zhou.

However, despite the reception, Zhou Mingzhang's two good brothers were not convinced.

In the early years, because Mr. Zhou was still alive and Chi Manning would also be involved in the company's affairs, the second and third sons of the Zhou family did not dare to act rashly after several consecutive failures in their attempts to sabotage the company.

But with the passing of Mr. Zhou, Zhou Mingzhang took over the power and was unwilling to let Chi Manning interfere in the affairs of Zhouzheng Group. The second and third masters of the Zhou family could no longer hold back their thoughts and began to stir...

"Zhou Lao Er and Zhou Lao San have always been dissatisfied with Zhou Mingzhang, a loser, being in power."

Chi Yuheng said slowly, "In the early years, it was Old Man Zhou and my sister who helped Zhou Mingzhang keep him under control. Now Old Man Zhou has passed away for many years. If my sister breaks off all ties with Zhou Mingzhang again..."

"Tell me, will those two be willing to be stepped on forever?"

Understanding the meaning of his words, Li Siwei raised her eyebrows.

"You mean, those two families will also take the opportunity to seize power?"

"While you are sick, I will kill you."

Chi Yuheng smiled, "If I were them, I wouldn't want to miss this great opportunity."

"Then isn't it Brother Yunqi?" Li Siwei frowned.

"Don't worry, Yunqi has been on guard against his two uncles for a long time."

Chi Yuheng's eyes showed satisfaction. "I guess he has collected most of the evidence he should have collected over the years. He didn't take action probably because of Zhou Mingzhang and the lack of a suitable opportunity."

Li Siwei: "Now is the time."

"Yes, the time has come..."
