The next morning, Wen Ning and Qiao Hua were still in bed when they heard a knock at the door.

  Qiao Miao Xia was woken up by the noise, while Wen Ning was still fast asleep.

  Qiao Miao Xias apartment had only one bed, and last night two people squeezed together chatting until very late.

  Looking at Wen Ning sleeping soundly beside her, Qiao Xia muttered to herself in her heart, how did she get through all these years?

  The knocking sound continued, and Qiao Muxia got up to open the door.

  Gu Bei stood outside the door, holding big and small bags, as well as a hot breakfast.

  "Ill give some medicine to Little Ning."

  "She hasnt gotten up yet, come in and sit down first."

  "Good."

  Wen Ning used to read books with Gu Bei Ci often visiting her, so she was also familiar with Qiao Miao Xia.

  Qiao Mu Xia washed up and changed her clothes before coming out. She casually asked, "Dr. Gu, do you know where Ning Meng has been all these years?"

  Gu Bei didnt know, although he wanted to know, but every time he saw the sadness hidden in Wen Nings eyes, he didnt want to uncover her scars.

  "Did Xiaoning say something to you?"

  Qiao Mu said vaguely, "Ning Meng said shes pregnant, and the child is Shen Sihans. As for the rest, she didnt want to say."

  Gu Bei Ci looked towards the bedroom direction and fell silent for a few seconds, then lowered his voice and asked, "Xiao Nings mental state and physical condition are not optimistic. This child shouldnt have been kept, but she is now her only spiritual pillar. Im afraid that if the child is gone, Xiao Ning will also collapse. So, weve been using medicine to regulate her condition. Miss Qiao, please take care of her for a month, and next month Ill take her away to M country."

  Qiao Miao Xia was taken aback and nodded, "Dont worry, Doctor Gu. Since Ning Meng took good care of me before, I will definitely take good care of her."

  Just then, the bedroom door opened and Wen Ning rushed out barefoot from inside, still holding the phone in her hand.

  "Uncle Li, wait for me, Ill be right there."

  She hastily walked towards the door to change her shoes, and Gu Bei asked, "Whats wrong? Where are you going, Xiao Ning?"

  "The company has run into trouble, Uncle Li called me and said that several of Manrous suppliers came to the door demanding debt repayment with a very tough attitude."

  The thing Wen Ning was most worried about still happened, and this was undoubtedly adding insult to injury for Man Rou.

  "What a coincidence!"

  Just lost a big order yesterday, and today I was blocked at the door asking for debt, its too coincidental.

  ……

  Wen Ning and the three of them rushed to Man Rou, where over a dozen workers were standing at the entrance watching. The ground was in disarray, the windows on the workshop were smashed, and several fierce-looking men were using iron chains to lock the workshop door. Li Xinhao stepped forward to block their way, but was pushed aside.

  "Wen Ning went up and questioned them, Who are you people? What right do you have to lock our door?"

  The man looked at her with a hint of amusement in his eyes, "So youre the new boss here? Weve come to collect debts on behalf of the Shen Corporation."

  "Wen Ning was shocked: What Shen family? We dont owe the Shen family any money."

  The man smiled and said, "You dont know yet. Yesterday, Shen Corporation has acquired Youfu, Laifa, and Jianye, the three companies debts are now all transferred to our Shen Corporation. In total, you owe us 3 million yuan in goods, hurry up and pay back!"

  Wen Nings face turned red with anger, and he stepped forward to reason with Gu Bei, "If you want debt, then ask for it, whats the point of smashing things?"

  That group of people were originally a bunch of rascals, and they didnt put Gu Bei Ci in their eyes at all. The newcomer pushed Gu Bei Ci away with one hand and reached out to Wen Ning. Wen Ning turned around to avoid him.

  The mans eyes were fixed on Wen Ni, "Mr. Shen has one more thing to say to Miss Wen. If Miss Wen can go to the hospital and apologize to Ms. Jiang, this debt will be written off."

  "This is outrageous!" Qiao Muxia angrily said, waving her fist and wanting to hit someone, but was held back by someone beside her.

  "Go back and tell Shen Si Han that if he wants me to kneel down and apologize, the door is not even open!"

  A sudden siren sounded from a distance, and the group of people heard it and left after throwing down a sentence.

  "Give you one days time, if tomorrow at 12 oclock you cant produce the money, well directly demolish this place!"

  The debt collector just left and they finally breathed a sigh of relief, but then Li Xinhou wanted to calm down the workers and send them home first, all the workers panicked and demanded to settle their wages before leaving.

  Wen Ning had just persuaded him for a couple of sentences when the worker suddenly became anxious and started pushing, almost knocking him to the ground.

  The little money he had left was not enough, so Gu Bei Ci took out 500,000 yuan to deal with the emergency first.

  "Lemon, why dont you go out of town for a while to avoid trouble?" Qiao Muxia advised.

  Li Xinhou also chimed in, "Right, Miss, you go out and avoid this for now. Leave it to me, at worst well end up in court, the company can go bankrupt, but you mustnt get into trouble."

  Wen Ning couldnt bear to implicate Man Rou, this was the Wen familys last foothold, she absolutely couldnt drag Man Rou down with her.

  "Theres still one day left, I must be able to scrape together the money. Ill go find Xie Beiping."

  Wen Ning didnt say a word and stopped a car to leave the factory.

  Gu Bei bid farewell and mounted his horse to return home.

  Three million, if it were any other time, wouldnt be a problem for him. But now, all his personal funds had been invested in the preparation of the research lab, and he couldnt even think about getting them back. After some thought, he decided that going home to get the money would be faster.

  ……

  Wen Ning arrived at Xies house, and all three members of the Xie family were at home.

  "Ive done what you told me to do, now give me 50 million."

  Xie Wanwan burst out laughing, "What five million? Who agreed to give you five million?"

  Then immediately changed to a vicious expression, "Still dare to come and ask for money? Do you believe Ill let someone kill the wild species in your belly?"

  Wen Nings hands were shaking as she looked at Xie Beiping, "Are you sure you wont give it to me? If you dont give it to me, Ill go ask Shen Junhuang for it!"

  Bei Pings face changed color, "What did you say?"

  Wen Ning: "Dont think I dont know, you and Shen Junhao colluded, colluding in bribery to get the Beihai Bay project."

  This information was found by Wen Ning from Xie Beipings safe deposit box materials.

  Xie Beiping could no longer sit still, and jumped up from his chair, "Dont talk nonsense."

  He denied it with his mouth, but the flustered expression on his face had already confessed.

  "I have evidence of your bribery in my hands, you say I take this to find Shen Junhuang, will Shen Junhuang give me 50 million?" Wen Ning said calmly.

  Xie Beiping had not yet realized that the safe had been opened, his first reaction was that Wen Ning had obtained evidence from Shen Cihan. This made him even more fearful.

  Xie Beiping looked at Wen Ning with even more disgust, this little scoundrel, only knew how to elbow his way out.

  Its not easy to get money.

  Xie Beiping quickly thought of a countermeasure, "Hand over the evidence, otherwise, Ill make public the video of your mothers infidelity back then, and let her not rest in peace even in her coffin."

  Xie Beipings despicable and shameless behavior has once again refreshed Wen Nings understanding.

  "Whos better at stealing people than you, Xie Beiping? Xie Wenyue is only two months younger than me. You slept with another woman just after marrying my mom, what right do you have to scold me?"

  Xie Beiping was so angry that she stomped her foot and slapped Wen Nings face with a loud slap.

  "You think your mother is willing to leave home with a clear conscience? That cheap woman has stolen from more than one person, and I caught her red-handed!"
