When Wen Ran arrived at the factory, the factory director Zhou Mingfu was sending off his suppliers who had just received their payment.
Upon seeing her arrival, a fleeting emotion passed through his eyes. He blocked her at the entrance of the factory, smiling mockingly:
“Ranran, you’re here! We’ve paid off all our debts. You managed to raise fifty million in such a short time and even married the Crown Prince of MS Group. You are truly capable. Unfortunately, he’s impotent. You’re so young, yet you’ll spend your life a widow…”
As Zhou Mingfu spoke, he deliberately glanced towards the factory. In front of the flower bed under the block, Sister Li was talking to a man in a coffee-colored suit. That man was Qin Mu, Mo Xiuchen’s assistant – the one who had just called Wen Ran.
Wen Ran’s slender fingers tightly clutched the strap of her bag, suppressing the resentment raging in her heart. It was this man who had killed her parents and left her older brother unconscious…
And his daughter Zhou Lin, she stole her boyfriend.
One day, she would find the evidence and avenge her parents.
With her lips tightly pressed together, Wen Ran sneered and said, “How could Uncle Zhou listen to rumors just like common folks? They also say that you killed my parents to seize the Wen Family property. Is that true too?” Googlᴇ search Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
“You… Of course not.”
Zhou Mingfu’s face turned pale, then flushed. Catching Qin Mu walking towards them from the corner of his eye, he quickly hid his emotions, forcing a smile and saying insincerely, “Assistant Qin has helped us a lot. You should invite him to your office for some tea.”
“Miss Wen, I have paid off the debts for you. This is what Young Master Mo asked me to give you.”
As Qin Mu emerged from the factory and handed a folder to Wen Ran, he gave Zhou Mingfu a cold glance. The chilling look he gave Zhou Mingfu was like a cold gust of wind that froze him to the spot.
“Assistant Qin, thank you.”
Wen Ran lowered her head to look at the sealed folder and softly expressed her thanks.
Qin Mu raised an eyebrow, his eyes flashing with scrutiny as he observed Wen Ran. Then he left with a simple statement: “Young Master Mo cares a lot about the Wen Family. If you need anything, call me anytime.” He then drove away, leaving a cloud of dust in his wake.
In the afternoon, Wen Ran went to the workshop. She had never managed a factory before, and taking over now meant she had much to familiarize herself with.
Fortunately, she had Sister Li, who had been with her father for five or six years and was now dedicated to helping her in earnest.
Before she knew it, it was time to clock out.
As soon as Wen Ran left the office, Bai Xiaoxiao called, she answered the phone before Bai Xiaoxiao started yelling, “Wen Ran, I told you, I would have helped you raise the money. Why didn’t you believe me? Why did you marry Mo Xiuchen, trading fifty million for a lifetime of widowhood…”
Bai Xiaoxiao had always been Wen Ran’s best friend. They were like sisters. When the Wen Family was in trouble and Wen Ran was helpless, Bai Xiaoxiao had tearfully promised to help her. She had even taken care of the arrangements for her parents’ funeral.
Moved by Bai Xiaoxiao’s kindness, Wen Ran quietly replied after Bai Xiaoxiao’s outburst: “Xiaoxiao, the Wen Family’s problems aren’t just about money. There are many other issues that money can’t solve. My marrying Mo Xiuchen is just a matter of necessity. I’m not at a disadvantage.”
“How can you not be at a disadvantage, Wen Ran? You’re only 22. How long is a lifetime?”
Bai Xiaoxiao’s voice was anxious. Mo Xiuchen’s impotence was a well-known fact in G City. If he were a normal man, it would never have been Wen Ran’s turn, considering how many women were fawning over him.
