Lu Ning looked at Mo Shiyi: "I already knew about this."

"Miss Lu was raised by the Lu family after all. Now you're competing with your family. Isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

Mo Shiyi was very unhappy. Why did Lu Ning get everything she wanted so easily?

Lu Ning's current life is what she used to dream of, including the man Ji Chenyi.

But now Lu Ning has accomplished all of these.

Why?

Lu Ning looked at Mo Shiyi with a half-smile: "Miss Mo, do you live by the sea? Why are you meddling in other people's business? Since you have so much free time, why don't you take care of your own family? The Mo family has gone bankrupt."

Lu Ning's words were quite disrespectful to Mo Shiyi.

Upon hearing this, Mo Shiyi couldn't hold back any longer.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Wasn't our family's bankruptcy caused by you?"

"I caused this? Miss Mo, have you forgotten that back then, your mother snatched the project from my parents, which is why your Mo family has been struggling for so many years?"

After Lu Ning finished speaking, Mo Shiyi continued, "This is because..."

"Why? No matter what excuse you make, it doesn't change the fact that your mother is a murderer. Do you think people will sympathize with you if you pretend nothing happened?"

Lu Ning's words struck a nerve with Mo Shiyi.

Everyone present looked at Lu Ning upon hearing these words. They hadn't expected that Miss Lu, who had been so low-key just now, would suddenly become so assertive, as if she had become a completely different person.

Just as Mo Shiyi was about to say something, the phone rang.

When Mo Shiyi saw the caller ID on her phone, her expression changed drastically, and she turned away to answer the call.

After Mo Shiyi left, the atmosphere at the scene changed a lot.

Mr. Zhang was the first to speak: "Miss Lu, I've heard about what happened to your family. The price the Mo family is paying now is what they deserve."

The others chimed in, "Yes, who would have thought that Madam Mo would do something so terrifying?"

"Mrs. Mo did much more than this before. She was so arrogant because she had someone backing her up."

"Ahem, don't talk nonsense."

After all, Ji Chiqian was still there; wouldn't this be giving Ji Chiqian no face at all?

Ji Chiqian looked at the people present and said, "My mother has indeed been deceived by Madam Mo all these years, and she has personally severed ties with Madam Mo."

After he publicly clarified the situation, the two people who had just spoken immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The atmosphere changed immediately.

Everyone was discussing what Madam Mo had done in the past, abusing her power and bullying others.

There were also people who were nearly bankrupted by Madam Mo's suppression, and others who were slandered by Madam Mo.

Everyone is now exposing Mrs. Mo's dirty secrets, as if they've been enduring it for a long time.

Hearing the conversation, Lu Ning realized that Madam Mo was far more outrageous than she had imagined.

No wonder no one stood up for Madam Mo after her accident; it turns out she had offended everyone in the past.

Not long after, the general manager of PZ Company appeared; he was a middle-aged foreign man.

Lu Ning had met this person before at Qin Xiang and Lu Wu's engagement party.

Mo Shiyi stood beside the general manager with a smile on her face, as if the little incident that had just happened had never occurred.

Sometimes you have to admire Mo Shiyi's shamelessness.

Lu Ning also saw that the Lu family members had appeared, including Lu Dongyou, who was wearing a suit and standing with Mrs. Chen with a smile on his face.

Lu Dongyou and Mrs. Chen didn't appear earlier, but now that the general manager of PZ Company has appeared, these two have followed suit?

They must have been discussing something together just now.

Lu Ning had some doubts. Could it be that Lu Dongyou had also signed that investment agreement with PZ Company?

However, Lu Dongyou probably doesn't have much money on hand, nor does he have the capital to invest.

The general manager of PZ Company took the stage and gave a eloquent speech, outlining a three-year plan for the company and depicting the overseas prospects of this project.

This statement attracted a lot of attention.

Currently, the domestic market is mainly dominated by Maple Leaf, but the overseas market is still largely untapped.

As the only domestic partner company designated by PZ Company, Lu Dongyou really made a splash, with many people flocking to him wanting to cooperate with the Lu family.

Mrs. Chen was overjoyed to see so many people wanting to cooperate; she couldn't stop smiling.

Everyone thought the cooperation with Lu's Group was going to fall through, but unexpectedly, Lu's Group actually obtained exclusive authorization from PZ Company.

Lu Ning and Ji Chiqian stood by and watched, without showing anything.

However, some people still came up to Ji Chiqian to say hello and inquire about cooperation.

Lu Ning whispered to Ji Chiqian, "I'm going to get something to eat. You can discuss the collaboration with me."

She was a little hungry, after all, she hadn't eaten much for lunch because she was busy with her hair and makeup.

Lu Ning walked to the food section and picked out what she wanted to eat.

Soon, Mrs. Chen and Mo Shiyi came over: "Miss Lu, did you come here to eat to distract yourself because you were too worried?"

Mo Shiyi said sarcastically, "Lu Ning, at a time like this, instead of staying by Ji Chiqian's side, you're hiding on the side eating by yourself. This isn't how a good wife should act."

Lu Ning looked at Mo Shiyi: "You're such a good wife, how come you haven't gotten married yet?"

Mo Shiyi's face instantly darkened.

A hint of mockery flashed in Mrs. Chen's eyes. After all, she looked down on Mo Shiyi now. Who told this woman to go to PZ Company and be in charge of promoting the project?

Mrs. Chen chimed in, "Ms. Lu, PZ Company is a large multinational corporation, not some small company. Don't mislead Chen Yu because of your narrow-minded understanding."

Lu Ning knew that Mrs. Chen was referring to the investment.

She said sarcastically, "Are you so worried about Chen Yu canceling his investment because you feel guilty?"

"Why would I feel guilty? I made this investment for Chen Yu's own good. Besides, it would be easy for her to get her money back. Didn't Mrs. Mo also invest some money before, and now Miss Mo has taken it away too?"

Lu Ning was not surprised by the result.

Since Madam Ji has invested, it's impossible for Madam Mo not to be greedy for high returns.

Mo Shiyi nodded: "PZ Company's investment has a high return and is very safe. Lu Ning, don't spread rumors, otherwise PZ Company won't be so easy to mess with. Ji Chiqian won't be able to protect you then."

“What rumors did I spread? I just think there’s something wrong with Mrs. Chen keeping all this money in this way.”

Lu Ning also knew that she couldn't reveal her suspicion that it was a scam right now.

She wasn't sure if the other party was testing her.

She continued, "Mrs. Chen, you invest without using your own money, yet you scheme to take Chen Yu's money. Do you really think others can't see how strong your possessiveness towards her is?"

“Lu Ning, shut up. What right do you have to say that? It was her father who personally handed Chen Yu over to me. I am her guardian. I have the right to do so.”

Lu Ning said coldly, "At least that person helped Chen Yu get her property back and prevented certain people from succeeding. He probably can't sleep soundly in his dreams, right?"

Mrs. Chen was indeed furious, but with Ji Chiqian backing Lu Ning up, she couldn't do anything to Lu Ning.

Chen Yu also had 24-hour bodyguards watching over her, so she no longer had a chance to make a move.

Mrs. Chen was a little angry: "Do you think Chen Yu's stepmother is any better? She's only after the Chen family's money, and she's no good either. Her identity is fake."

Lu Ning was somewhat surprised: "You mean that the stepmother's identity is fake?"
