After Miss Lu became the only one to enjoy the limelight, her six brothers knelt down and begged for

When Lu Ning heard the news, she fell silent.

The joy I felt just now was instantly dampened.

Chen Guoguo quickly said, "But this has nothing to do with Lu Ning. It's clearly Madam Mo who is malicious and took advantage of her best friend. Now she's trying to use this kind of trick again. It's so outrageous."

Chen Yu nodded: "That's how the Mo family is. They really enjoy doing this kind of thing. But unfortunately, Madam Mo was lucky and has always been best friends with Madam Ji. They have a very good relationship."

Lu Ning looked at Chen Yu: "So that's why the Mo family has had such a smooth life all these years?"

"Isn't that right? But what can you do when Mrs. Mo is just lucky?"

After hearing Chen Yu's words, Lu Ning frowned and said, "Do you think Madam Mo might try to harm Aunt Ji for her own selfish gain?"

"You know what, the Mo family is really capable of doing something like this. But the Ji family is the Mo family's only support, so they probably wouldn't do something so stupid. The eldest brother of the Ji family is no pushover."

Madam Ji also had a smart and capable son, who also had family support.

If Madam Mo were that stupid, she wouldn't have been Madam Ji's best friend for so many years.

Lu Ning breathed a sigh of relief: "What you said makes sense. I was overthinking it."

Madam Mo's only lifeline right now is the Ji family.

"Lu Ning, what do you plan to do?"

"We will do what needs to be done. I will not stop. We will make the truth pay the price."

Lu Ning lay on the bed. Things had already come to this point, and she wouldn't back down easily.

Even if this makes Aunt Ji dislike me, hate me, or even forbid me from being with Ji Chiqian.

She was determined to continue on her path and avenge her parents.

Lu Ning closed her eyes and fell asleep soon after.

She received a message from Ji Chiqian after she woke up in the morning: "Do you have class this morning?"

After seeing this message, Lu Ning's mood inexplicably became much happier.

She replied quickly: "I have class."

After replying to the message, Lu Ning tossed her phone aside and hurriedly ran over to wash up.

When she came back after washing up, she picked up her phone and glanced at it, but he hadn't replied to anything.

What does it mean?

Lu Ning thought for a moment and then replied, "I don't have class this afternoon."

Lu Ning regretted replying as soon as she did, and quickly clicked to recall, thinking that he probably hadn't seen it.

But the next second Ji Chiqian sent a message: "Go to Maple Leaf Company for a meeting this afternoon."

When Lu Ning saw his reply, she felt that she had just said something unnecessary.

She glanced at it and decisively didn't reply.

After Lu Ning and Chen Guoguo walked into the classroom together, she received a message from Ji Chiqian.

She deliberately glanced around, then casually checked her phone, only to see he had replied with a "?".

Lu Ning glanced at it; what kind of reply was this?

Chen Guoguo leaned closer: "What's wrong? You look so conflicted?"

"nothing."

Lu Ning turned off her phone and started reading, but didn't reply to Ji Chiqian's message.

The man on the other end stared at his phone, waiting for a long time without receiving any reply.

Ji Chiqian narrowed his eyes slightly, his slender fingers holding his phone, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

The secretary beside him tentatively spoke up: "Mr. Ji, there's an international conference this afternoon..."

"I have a meeting this morning, and this afternoon I have a meeting at Maple Leaf Company."

Ji Chiqian put down his phone. Although Lu Ning didn't reply, he knew she would definitely go to Maple Leaf Company that afternoon.

He tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep, his mind filled with thoughts of her.

At this moment, Gu Zifeng walked in and asked his secretary to leave the office.

Ji Chiqian looked up: "Is something the matter?"

"I heard your mother is sick? Apparently, she's been diagnosed with some incurable disease?"

Ji Chiqian looked up and glanced at him: "Are you stupid just because others are stupid?"

"I told you, if you were really that sick, would you even be able to come to work today? Rumors can be deadly."

Gu Zifeng sat down in the back and continued, "That's probably related to the Mo family again, but if you really make a move, you might make Aunt Ji sick."

"So you're telling me to swallow this insult?"

"That's not true, but you don't need to personally bankrupt the Mo family. Once Madam Mo is arrested and the Mo family's past actions are exposed, they will naturally perish. That way, you'll have given Aunt Ji a satisfactory explanation."

If Ji Chiqian were to take action against the Mo family now, not only would Madam Ji lose face, but she would also be furious.

Ji Chiqian's expression remained unpleasant: "I've tolerated the Mo family for so long only because they can stay with my mother. But the Mo family is wicked, and I don't want them to stay by my mother's side."

“I know, but when your father had that accident, your mother suffered from depression, and it was Mrs. Mo who stayed by her side all these years to help her through it. Although Mrs. Mo’s intentions were impure, your mother was really good to her and had feelings for her.”

Ji Chiqian looked over: "Did your mother send you here as a mediator?"

Gu Zifeng touched his nose: "What my mom said makes sense. What you're doing will really upset Aunt Ji. Didn't you plan to make Aunt Ji see clearly how the Mo family is using you? Take it slow, Aunt Ji will definitely see it clearly."

Ji Chiqian gripped the document tightly in his hand, his eyes filled with reluctance.

Gu Zifeng stepped forward, grabbed the document, and tore it up: "Making the Mo family disappear and go bankrupt is not what you should be doing now. Expose the truth of what happened back then, make the Mo family pay the price, and make Xiao Ningmeng be able to forgive and forget and be with you."

By then, the Mo family won't even need Ji Chiqian to lift a finger; they'll go bankrupt on their own.

Ji Chiqian loosened his tie and looked at Gu Zifeng: "Have you found Qin Xiang?"

"We have a lead, but we're still looking. I have to say, that woman is quite good at hiding; she actually went to a club to hide. A pregnant woman living a very successful life there. If it weren't for those rich kids from the business school seeing her, we wouldn't have any news at all."

But once a clue is found, it means you're not far from finding the person.

Ji Chiqian thought for a moment: "As long as we catch Qin Xiang, we can make arrangements. We must make sure my mother sees clearly what happened back then, that it was deliberately arranged by the Mo family."

Only in this way will his mother give up.

Gu Zifeng breathed a sigh of relief and patted Ji Chiqian on the shoulder: "That's right. You should spend more time on Xiao Ningmeng instead."

Ji Chiqian glanced at his phone and nodded: "You're right."

In the afternoon, at Maple Leaf Company.

Lu Ning walked in with her shoulder bag on her back; in fact, she hadn't been here for quite some time.

She and her team had already completed the core system. There were some minor issues, but she could handle them remotely using her computer, so there was no need for her to go to the company.

But when Lu Ning walked into the company, she still felt a sense of warmth.

Without Maple Leaf Company, she wouldn't be where she is today.

Once Maple Leaf goes public, she will be completely financially independent.

After entering the office area, Lu Ning greeted her colleagues. She hadn't seen them for a long time, and they usually communicated in the work group.

During the meeting, Lu Ning saw Ji Chiqian and Gu Zifeng walk into the conference room together.

She noticed the man's gaze and instinctively avoided his eyes.

Ji Chiqian noticed her subtle evasive movements and quickly looked away.

After Gu Zifeng sat down, someone spoke up: "President Gu, I heard that Lu's Company is on the verge of bankruptcy. Should we teach them a lesson?"

Upon hearing the news about the Lu family, Lu Ning looked up.

Is Lu's Company going bankrupt?
