While the three were talking, Xiang Zheng took the initiative to contact Song Yuzhu and said that he would return to Jinxiu Tiancheng in the evening. Song Yuzhu's eyes flashed with joy, and she said to Xiang Zheng repeatedly:

"Okay, I'll wait for you over there. I'll wait for you no matter how late it is."

After Song Yuzhu left, Xu Ning said to Song Yanshu:

"Jiang Xiaoyu's overseas agreement was originally a fake contract. I can find a way to deal with it, but it will take some time.

As for the money that the second wife earned from Wanxiang Group, I can't do anything about it. You have to deal with it yourselves."

After hearing this, Song Yanshu asked Xu Ning with a serious face,

"Since Jiang Xiaoyu has revealed this agreement, I think she must have taken precautions. It won't be easy to destroy it.

Ning'er, will it affect you if you do this? If the risk is too great, forget it.

Xu Ning smiled and shook his head, "Don't worry, I won't make any promises without any assurance.

Fortunately, she showed the agreement and sent the recording to Xiang Zheng, otherwise it would be difficult to catch her."

That night, when Xiang Zheng returned to Jinxiu Tiancheng, Song Yuzhu was waiting in the hall with an anxious look on his face, thinking of several possible solutions.

Seeing Xiang Zheng carrying his bag home, Song Yuzhu quickly stepped forward and took his bag.

"You're back? Are you hungry now? Should I ask Aunt Li to make some midnight snack?"

Xiang Zheng changed his shoes and shook his head at Song Yuzhu.

"I'm not hungry. Let's go to the study and talk."

Song Yuzhu entered the study room nervously and confessed to Xiang Zheng:

"Brother Zheng, I know you're in a bad mood because you think I'm using despicable means to force you just to be with you.

I admit that when the Xiang family got into trouble and Aunt Lu forced you to break up with Xu Ning, I forced you to break up in exchange for benefits. I did seem to be taking advantage of the situation, but I really didn't know that Jiang Xiaoyu was the one who deliberately plotted behind the Xiang family's misfortune.

If you're unhappy and want to get angry at me, or if you don't want to consider getting married for the time being, I accept that. But please give me a chance and don't fall for other people's schemes to sow discord between us, causing both the Song and Xiang families to suffer, okay?"

After Song Yuzhu said this, she saw Xiang Zheng sitting in silence with a stern face. She simply played the recording to Xiang Zheng and produced the evidence that Jiang Xiaoyu and Song Muqi were blaming the first wife and colluding with overseas forces to short the Xiang family.

"That vicious woman Jiang Xiaoyu, I used to treat her like a relative and told her everything. I never thought that after I told her on the phone that you are a rare and infatuated young man in Jincheng, with a good appearance and a good personality, she would start to take notice of you.

Brother Zheng, you know that Second Grandpa and the First House are not on good terms with each other. In order to compete for power with my uncle, he secretly encouraged me to cooperate with him. As a result, he asked me for help while he plotted against the First House with Jiang Xiaoyu. Jiang Xiaoyu kept threatening me with this matter.

Brother Zheng, when the Xiang family got into trouble, I sincerely wanted to help you.

Also, when Wanxiang Group got into trouble, my grandfather and the others had no idea that the second branch was involved. They were completely kept in the dark.

Grandpa and my uncle transferred funds to Wanxiang Group not to take care of my children's personal feelings, but to take advantage of the personal relationship between our two families. They have no intention of taking advantage of your misfortune and forcing you to marry me. Please don't misunderstand me.

Xiang Zheng listened to the recording and Song Yuzhu's explanation, but he still felt a little upset.

"Yuzhu, you asked me not to misunderstand you and to give you a chance, but have you ever thought about how unfair this is to me?

Xu Ning and I have been in love for seven years, seven whole years. Just because you like me, the Xiang family becomes a sheep on the chopping board, and I become a pawn in the calculations of the second branch of the Song family and the Jiang family. In order to prevent the Xiang family from going bankrupt, I have to sell myself?

If this happened to you, would you be able to swallow this?"

When Xiang Zheng said this, he thought of Madam Xiang in the ward, desperately pulling out the IV tube and oxygen tube, and said with a determined look:

"Xiang Zheng, you want to marry Xu Ning only after I die!"

Madam Xiang threatened to commit suicide, and Xiang Yuankui trembled and pointed at Xiang Zheng's nose and cursed:

"Son, your grandfather worked hard all his life and finally accumulated this little bit of property. Was it easy for Wanxiang Group to get to where it is today?

Now that we're on the verge of bankruptcy, are you really indifferent? Do you want me and your mother to die with regrets?"

Thinking of those days when he was criticized by thousands of people, and after being with Song Yuzhu, he was also mocked from time to time, Xiang Zheng felt very aggrieved.

"Don't worry, every wrong has its perpetrator, and I know what I should do.

But, Yuzhu, I want to calm down now. If you feel unhappy, we can cancel the engagement.

As for the excuse for breaking off the engagement, I'll just say that I've let you down by finding a new lover. I won't let you or the Song family lose face."

Xiang Zheng said this, looking at the decoration style of the room, thinking of his original intention of decorating the house, he didn't want to stay any longer,

"Rest now, I still have things to deal with."

Xiang Zheng was about to leave when he was stopped by Song Yuzhu.

"I know you don't want to see me. You don't have to leave. I should be the one leaving."

After saying this, Song Yuzhu grabbed her bag and left quickly. She wandered aimlessly on the street for a few rounds and finally went to the bar to get drunk.

Xiang Zheng and Song Yuzhu went out one after another. He drove to the company again, leaned on the sofa, closed his eyes and stared blankly.

Not long after, a friend called Xiang Zheng and asked him to go to Ye Weiyang to play cards.

Xiang Zheng went to Ye Weiyang and played with his friends until three in the morning. The next day, Xiang Zheng successfully made the headlines in the entertainment section.

Song Yuzhu was drinking alone in the bar and wanted to find someone to talk to, so she called Xu Yuanyuan over.

Song Yuzhu hugged Xu Yuanyuan and cried and laughed, looking as miserable as she could be.

"Yuanyuan, Xiang Zheng doesn't want me anymore, what should I do? What should I do?

A forced melon is not sweet, and it is useless to snatch something that does not belong to you!"

Xu Yuanyuan was confused, not knowing what the conflict between her and Xiang Zheng was. She smiled awkwardly to comfort Song Yuzhu.

"Yuzhu, if there's any misunderstanding, just talk to Xiang Zheng.

Xiang Zheng is a reasonable person. He cares about you very much and will not abandon you."

Song Yuzhu cried even more miserably, hugging Xu Yuanyuan and sobbing.

"He doesn't want me anymore. He doesn't care about me. He and I weren't together by choice in the first place. What do you think I should do?"

When Song Yuzhu said this, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Yuanyuan, can you give me some advice on how to make him change his mind?

He was so distant to me at first, and you gave me a lot of advice. Can you help me again?"

After hearing this, Xu Yuanyuan pulled her hair with both hands.

"Yuzhu, I don't even have a fiancé myself, and you're asking me, an outsider, to guide an expert. Isn't that just nonsense?"

Song Yuzhu drank the wine while crying and laughing.

“You’ve never eaten pork, but you’ve seen a pig run, haven’t you?

When you helped me snatch Xiang Zheng, your ideas were pretty good, couldn't you come up with another idea for me?"

Xu Yuanyuan, "...Yuzhu, I'm at the end of my rope!

Let's go back. Maybe if you go back and have some sleep, Xiang Zheng will come to see you tomorrow."

When I suggested you to snatch Xiang Zheng, my brother slapped me in the face. My face still hurts when I think about it now!
