Zhao Yaqin tightly grasped Qiao Ruyi's hand, knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, attracting a lot of attention.

Before Qiao Ruyi could figure out the situation, she heard the woman kneeling on the ground crying and saying "Xu family". She roughly guessed who the person kneeling in front of her was.

She was in her forties or fifties, and was still a wealthy lady. Now she had to put aside her dignity and kneel down to him in public. Qiao Ruyi felt a little embarrassed.

"Mrs. Xu, please get up first. Let's find a place to talk."

Qiao Ruyi was about to pull Zhao Yaqin up, but she couldn't get up. She grabbed Qiao Ruyi's hand and cried, "Mrs. Ling, my son has been punished for his wrongdoings. Can you please not kill our Xu family completely, considering that both of his hands are crippled?"

Kill them all?

Qiao Ruyi knew that Ling Che had used some tricks to make it difficult for the Xu family's company to operate, but it shouldn't be serious enough to use the word "annihilation".

She also asked Ling Che about the Xu family's affairs. Ling Che's words "exchange his father's company for a lesson for the Xu family" were still ringing in her ears. She could not change Ling Che's decision. Besides, she could not help but care about what Xu Heng had done to her, so the punishment Xu Heng received was what he deserved.

But Xu Heng is Xu Heng, and his mother is his mother.

It is indeed unacceptable to make an elder kneel in front of you in such a public place.

"Mrs. Xu, I'm sorry, I can't make a decision about your company. You should get up first."

Qiao Ruyi was about to help Zhao Yaqin up as she spoke. Zhao Yaqin looked up with a determined look on her face. "If Madam Ling doesn't let me go, I'll lose my dignity. I'll kneel here. When you agree to let our Xu family go, I'll get up."

The son she raised became disabled, the company she had run for decades was about to go bankrupt, and her husband, with whom she had been supporting for decades, fell ill.

Zhao Yaqin can no longer care about anything else. All the pressure of the Xu family is now on her shoulders as a woman, and she has no other choice.

She was certain that Qiao Ruyi, as Mrs. Ling, would not put herself in such an occasion that would damage her image. As long as Qiao Ruyi agreed to ask Mr. Ling to let go of Xu Technology, the purpose of her kneeling today would be achieved.

As long as Xu Technology can survive, the humiliation she suffered today will be nothing.

Many eyes have been looking over here, accompanied by whispers.

Zhao Yaqin refused to get up and held Qiao Ruyi tightly for fear that she would leave.

Qiao Ruyi said helplessly, "Mrs. Xu, if you'd like, we can find a quiet place to talk. Your actions will not benefit your Xu family at all."

Several people who were watching the fun had already started taking out their mobile phones to take pictures. If the pictures were to get out, it would undoubtedly provide topics of discussion for both companies.

"I don't care about what's good or bad anymore." Zhao Yazhi's hand gripped tighter. "You are Mr. Ling's wife, your words must be effective. As long as you plead for our Xu family in front of Mr. Ling, our Xu family can still be saved. Mrs. Ling, can't you help me with this little favor?"

Qiao Ruyi took a deep breath, frowned, squatted down and looked at Zhao Yazhi at eye level. She looked at Zhao Yaqin's red eyes from crying, and a trace of pity flashed through her heart.

She said calmly, "Mrs. Xu, this is no small favor. This is your son's fault, and I can't forgive him. I hope you understand. But I will try to talk to Ling Che about your company's affairs and see if there is a better solution."

Qiao Ruyi wasn't sure whether Ling Che was willing to listen to her, but since Mrs. Xu was willing to kneel down for her son and the company, she was willing to give it a try.

Perhaps the other party is really at the point of desperation, so he chooses to kneel down.

Tears welled up in Zhao Yaqin's eyes as she looked straight at the beautiful but cold-blooded woman in front of her.

Ye Ke's words were indeed correct. This woman named Qiao Ruyi was indeed not a generous person. After all, she was still politely refusing to help. She said that she would give it a try, but in fact, she was just looking for an excuse.

This woman is determined to drive the entire Xu family to death!

She raised her hand and slapped Qiao Ruyi in the face, saying angrily, "You woman are so cruel! I'm so old and I've knelt down to beg you, but you don't have any sympathy at all. You're only happy to watch our Xu family go bankrupt, right?"

There was a burning pain on her face, and Qiao Ruyi was stunned by the sudden slap.

The woman who was crying and begging her just a second ago now looked at her like an enemy.

The two people who had just gotten off the elevator in the lobby happened to see this scene and stood there without moving.

Li Ru held the documents in her hand and said in a low voice, "Guan Mei... Sister Ruyi seems to be in trouble..."

Guan Mei glanced towards Qiao Ruyi, then quickly looked away. "It has nothing to do with us. I still have to go to the LS Group for a meeting."

When passing by here, both of them subconsciously looked over here.

This glance happened to be caught by Qiao Ruyi.

Zhao Yaqin pointed at her face and gnashed her teeth, "How could my son possibly fall for a woman as vicious as you! Maybe you seduced him and deliberately used such despicable tactics to play this trick on the Ling Group CEO in order to bring down our Xu family! Don't even mention that my son didn't even touch you. Even if he stripped you naked, you would have deserved it!"

"Snapped!"

A loud slap.

Zhao Yazhi covered her face which had just been hit and looked at the woman in front of her with disbelief.

Qiao Ruyi stood up from the ground and looked down at Zhao Yaqin coldly. "Mrs. Xu, I originally had a soft spot for you and wanted to help you recover some of the losses of your Xu Technology. But now I see that you are just like your son. Like son, like mother. You are not worthy of me saying a good word for you."

"Qiao Ruyi!"

After kneeling in public and being slapped, Zhao Yaqin no longer cared about her dignity. Her chest was burning with rage. She stood up from the ground and cursed at Qiao Ruyi like a shrew who had lost her mind, "You vicious woman! You are so cruel!"

She shouted to the onlookers, "Everyone, come and see this vicious woman with a ruthless heart! She seduced my son and caused the nerves in both of his hands to be severed, leaving him with a lifelong disability. She also caused my husband to become bedridden. Even our company is on the verge of bankruptcy because of this woman!"

"Look at her face that has destroyed our family!"

More and more people gathered around, and many of them began to point fingers at the two of them.

"Mrs. Xu."

Qiao Ruyi called her coldly.

She didn't seem to take Zhao Yaqin's words to heart, with a cold smile on her lips, "If you have time to curse like a shrew, you might as well go burn a few more incense sticks for your son and your Xu family, and pray that your family can have a hot meal in the future."

After saying that, she looked at the security guard in the lobby with a cold face, "Drag him out! He's disturbing public order and is not allowed to enter this building again."
