or not.It's laughable really, this was her mother's property she inherited, yet here she stood at the villa's doorstep, hearing laughter and merriment from within, feeling like a complete stranger."Ji..."Good, you know yourself. When your husband gets back, reward you well~" Li Boche looked at Luo Ningxi meaningfully, his voice carrying a hint of darkness and temptation.

Suddenly, Luo Ningxi thought about his so-called reward. He couldn't help but feel a surge of annoyance. "Get lost!" she retorted, her voice laced with irritation. "Take care of your health. I don't want your rewards."

"I was just saying, I wanted to get you a new bag you'd like. It can't be found in China, and you don't even seem interested. Well, never mind then."

"Hey—"

Lu Ningxi instantly realized he had been tricked, glaring angrily at him, "You dare"

"Okay, okay. I'll buy it for you when I get back. Goodnight, honey."

Good night, honey.

……

In the hospital, Yu Chengnan posted on his WeChat Moments and didn't think much of it afterward.

This is just the first step; as long as they use Luo Ningxi's guilt, there will be many opportunities for them to get along in the future.

However, the moment this thought arose, he suddenly received a call from his assistant—

"Mr. Yu, something is wrong. Several of our business partners have suddenly withdrawn their investments and announced that they will never cooperate with Yu Corporation again."

Yu Chengnan's face darkened suddenly, clenching his phone, "What's the reason"

"Those in charge just said they didn't want to cooperate for now, and they didn't give any reason." The assistant replied tremblingly.

Yu Chengnan was a prominent figure in the business world. Although he lacked the experience of some seasoned veterans, he had still achieved considerable success. He didn't believe these rumors about unwillingness to cooperate; there must be other reasons behind it.

“Contact these companies' heads of departments, I want to talk to them personally!”

Two hours later.

Yu Chengnan met the business partner in person through a video call.

"Mr. Wang, our cooperation was going well, we were about to sign a new contract, and now you're backing out If this gets out, it would likely damage your reputation."

Through the phone screen, Yu Chengnan calmly negotiated with the other party.

However, on the screen, the middle-aged man known as "Wang" didn't look good either. "General Yu," he said, "even if you want to sue me for breach of contract, I have no objection. I was indeed wrong in this matter."

"I'm not trying to blame anyone, but Mr. Wang, your sudden withdrawal of investment requires a suitable explanation that I can understand and accept."

Yu Chengnan shrewdly narrowed his eyes, he definitely wanted to get to the bottom of it, who was behind this

Wang, the general manager, sighed, “Director Yu, have you ever offended Shengshi Group”

Yu Chengnan's expression was stern, "You mean..."

"To be honest with you, Shengshi Group has made it clear that anyone who cooperates with you is against them. You know how things are in the capital today – besides those few big families, Shengshi Group is already the leader. We really can't refuse."

After hanging up the phone, Yu Chengnan's temples throbbed, his veins visibly bulging. He almost smashed the phone to the ground.

Chengshi Group!

Isn't that President Sheng

Could it be because of the charity auction that night

Is he raising the price against himself and taking revenge on himself

I didn't expect President Sheng to be so stingy!

Throughout the entire night, Yu Chengan was dealing with company matters, but the more he dealt with them, the more problems arose behind the scenes. For a time, he was so busy that he was overwhelmed.

After staying up all night, Yu Chengnan was exhausted and his wounds ached faintly.

His brow furrowed tightly. After glancing at the time on his phone, he flipped through his contacts, finally stopping his fingertip on the name Luo Ningxi.

……

On the other side.

Upon waking, Luo Ningxi was dressed and ready to leave when she received a call from Yu Chengnan.

But before she could say anything, Yu Chennan's voice came through the phone.

"Tell everyone in the company to join an online meeting...Ahem..."

"No matter what, the company must keep running. Even if those business partners suddenly break their contracts, I won't let the Yu family collapse under my watch!"

Luo Ningxi was completely confused by these words, but she quickly reacted, "Yu Chennan Hello Did you dial the wrong number"

He wasn't recuperating in the hospital, how did he suddenly start holding a meeting

And hearing the voice seemed very weak...

"Ningxi" After a rustling sound, Yu Chengnan reacted as if he had just realized it, "I don't even know how I called you. I didn't sleep all night yesterday and was a bit dazed."

"Didn't you sleep all night" Luo Ningxi's voice held a hint of concern, "Did something happen to you"

"It's my own fault. Last time I snatched that necklace from you, I offended the CEO of Shengshi Group. Now they're imposing a soft blockade on us and took away my business partners."

"What" Loning Xi's mind flashed back to her meeting with President Sheng that day, "Could there be some misunderstanding I met President Sheng that day, and he didn't seem this narrow-minded..."

"Speaking of which, Yu Chengnan sighed, “Perhaps. It’s a pity that I’m not familiar with President Sheng, otherwise, I could have said something."

Hearing silence from Lu Ningxi on the other end of the phone, Yu Chengnan expressed his guilt, "I'm sorry for suddenly saying these things to you. Are you tired of hearing it"

Yu Chengnan's voice was very weak. Luo Ningxi listened, and finally couldn't help but care, "You still have to pay more attention to your body, don't overwork yourself."

"With your concern, I feel much better." Yu Chengnan's eyes were smiling. "I won't bother you anymore."

He hung up the phone himself, letting out a long sigh.

Lu Ningxi looked at the call log on her phone screen.

She was just going to Shengshi Group, should she ask about Yushu Group

At the heart of it, he was clashing with CEO Sheng because he wanted to film his late mother's belongings.ng."Luo Ningxi nodded, not wanting to continue hitting him.The wealth that the Yu family possesses now is something that an ordinary person wouldn't even be able to accumulate in a lifetime of hard wo...
