Chapter Index

    At seven o’clock in the evening, Tang Ruoxue left the hospital.

    She got into the car and prepared to go back to the Tang family villa with her bodyguards, but thinking about her mother Lin Qiuling coming back tonight, her mood became bad again.

    In the end, Tang Ruoxue returned directly to Ruoxue Group.

    Naturally, there are many people working overtime at Nuoda Group at this time, but the president’s office is indescribably deserted.

    “Gao Jing, mocha, less sugar…” Tang Ruoxue turned on the headlights, walked to the chair and sat down, picked up the cup and shouted to Gao Jing to make coffee.

    As soon as she said those words, she suddenly remembered that Gao Jing had been fired by her that morning.

    Tang Ruoxue felt melancholy for a while. She stood up and made a cup of coffee. Then she sat in her chair and slowly turned so that she faced the floor-to-ceiling windows with bright lights.

    Today’s experience gave her a huge shock, and the words of Yuan Qingyi and Song Hongyan made her start to face herself fully.

    She and Ye Fan’s relationship has been ups and downs, and they have experienced many lives and deaths. It stands to reason that the two of them should be getting closer.

    But every time something happened, Ye Fan’s feelings for her not only did not heat up, but instead became less and less like sand in the palm of his hand, becoming more and more difficult to hold.

    Tang Ruoxue never felt that the problem was with her. She had always been the most truthful and sincere towards Mark, but why did she end up with bruises all over her body?

    “Duk duk duk -” Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door. Tang Ruoxue turned her head and saw Qin Shijie in a suit walking towards him.

    Dusty but full of energy.

    Tang Ruoxue forced out a smile: “Lawyer Qin, thank you for your hard work. Have you settled the matter in Ma Kingdom?”

    “Done.”

    Qin Shijie smiled and put a few documents in front of Tang Ruoxue: “Several infringement disputes are not difficult in the first place, but local protectionism in Malaysia is too strong, so we have been struggling.”

    “This time, I used Master Ye’s banner to say hello to Yuan Huihuang, who happened to be on a mission to the Kingdom of Ma, and the matter was resolved instantly.”

    “Stop the infringement, compensate for the losses, and cooperate with the agency. Things that may not have been settled in three years can be settled in one week.”

    “I am also a dead horse and a living doctor. I didn’t expect Yuan Huihuang to have such a good relationship with Mr. Ye that he would personally put pressure on him.”

    He informed Tang Ruoxue of all the results of this business trip.

    Tang Ruoxue was slightly startled, thinking that she could stand alone long ago, but she didn’t expect that she still couldn’t do without Mark’s protection.

    She took a sip of coffee and said, “Thank you for your hard work.”

    “It’s my job.”

    Qin Shijie remembered something and took out another piece of information from his briefcase: “Mr. Tang, this is Gao Jing’s resignation letter.”

    “She didn’t want to see you embarrassed, so she asked me to help give you the resignation letter. She resigned voluntarily without compensation.”

    He carefully placed the resignation letter in front of Tang Ruoxue: “She thanked you for taking care of you these days, and asked me to say sorry to you.”

    “She shouldn’t break the contract without giving you face.”

    He paraphrased Gao Jing’s words: “At least she should call you out and tell you that there is a problem with Emgrand Bank.”

    Tang Ruoxue paused for a moment, then looked at the resignation letter and smiled bitterly: “Lawyer Qin, was I wrong?”

    “I found some information about Emgrand Bank through my friends at Interpol.”

    Qin Shijie did not directly respond to Tang Ruoxue’s question, but just told what he learned: “It is the largest joint-stock bank in New Zealand, but it is also the largest underground bank in Southeast Asia.”

    “Many rich people or fraudsters on the most wanted list use it to transfer funds.”

    “It also has something to do with your Tang Sect.”

    “Eighty percent of the Tang Sect’s overseas funds enter and leave China through it…” Qin Shijie said softly: “Emgrand Bank is indeed not a reliable collaborator.”

    “I also studied the contract Duanmuqing gave you. There is no problem with the interest period, but there are hidden dangers in the Yundingshan mortgage.”

    “Once the account linked to you by Emgrand Bank does not receive interest from you for two consecutive months, Emgrand Bank has the right to confiscate Yundingshan.”

    Although the signed and sealed contract was torn up by Gao Jing, Ruoxue Group still has the electronic version of the contract from Emgrand Bank.

    Tang Ruoxue frowned slightly: “What’s the problem?

    Afraid I can’t pay the interest?

    With 200 million a month, Ruoxue Group can squeeze out no matter what.”

    “Of course I believe Ruoxue Group can come up with this money.”

    Qin Shijie showed a gentle smile and reminded Tang Ruoxue of the trap contained in it: “What if the docking account of Dihao Bank refuses to accept your money?

    Or what if something went wrong and was seized, resulting in the inability to transfer the interest?”

    “Maybe Emgrand Bank will report this account for money laundering and let Interpol freeze the investigation for three to five months.”

    “How will you repay the money then?”

    “Even if you find that you can’t repay the loan and fly to a new country with cash, there are countless ways to delay you for two months.”

    “The terms of the contract do not say that Emgrand Bank is responsible for this situation. They only say that you failed to transfer the money to the designated account on time.”

    “So this contract is a hole dug by Duanmuqing to swallow Yunding Mountain.”

    “This method is just like campus loans. When female college students want to repay the loan, the other party turns off the phone and cuts off contact, making them unable to repay the loan on time and causing it to be overdue.”

    “Then interest compounded and the debt became astronomical.”

    “It’s a rogue technique, but it’s very practical.”

    “And Emgrand Bank has a first-class team of rogue lawyers. Even international criminal detectives can’t do anything to them.”

    “If we go to court with it, whether it’s in New Zealand or China, we will lose more than we win.”

    He looked at Tang Ruoxue and sighed softly: “So you should thank Gao Jing for tearing up the contract.”

    Tang Ruoxue’s eyelids twitched, and there was a flash of guilt in her eyes: “It seems that I was too anxious to get 10 billion.”

    “I’m sorry for Gao Jing, I shouldn’t have misunderstood her for standing up for Mark.”

    “I’ll go find her tomorrow. I’ll apologize to her in person and invite her back with double my salary.”

    She made up her mind to obtain Gao Jing’s forgiveness.

    “Mr. Tang, don’t go looking for Gao Jing. She has been invited away by the Hongyan Group.”

    “Something happened to Song Hongyan and the Longdu Pharmaceutical Factory was burned down. Lin Baishun couldn’t handle it alone, so Ye Fan asked her to prepare a new factory for Hongyan Baiyao.”

    Qin Shijie said hesitantly: “She will take office this afternoon, so Mr. Tang should not look for her again.”

    “What?

    Did she go to the Hongyan Group?”

    Tang Ruoxue’s eyes turned cold, and she was about to get angry, but suddenly she thought that Gao Jing’s departure was her fault, and it would be too harsh to blame herself.

    “Has she wanted to go to the Hongyan Group for a long time?

    Otherwise, how could he run so fast?”

    She leaned on the swivel chair and looked ahead. There were thousands of lights, but none of them belonged to her, Tang Ruoxue.

    “Gao Jing has always been loyal to you. Before you fired her, you and Ruoxue Group were everything to her.”

    Qin Shijie said frankly: “You drove her out. She was wronged and lonely. It was Mark who comforted her and entrusted her with important tasks.”

    “Ye Fan has helped Gao Jing a lot before, and now he wants Gao Jing to help build the factory. How can Gao Jing not return the favor?”

    “Of course, the most important thing is that nails driven into the wall will not be fine after being pulled out.”

    “Gao Jing is Gao Jing. She is not Ye Fan. She can’t be slapped and then come back to work.”

    “Although she is just a secretary, she still needs to be respected.”

    “Ye Fan tolerates you and protects you time and time again, just because he loves you so much…” Qin Shijie’s voice was neither soft nor heavy, but it hit Tang Ruoxue’s heart like bullets.

    Gao Jing could not reconcile with herself even after receiving a slap. She had hurt Ye Fan so many times, but Ye Fan never complained or regretted.

    Then, she looked at Qin Shijie who was about to speak but hesitated: “Lawyer Qin, do you want to leave too?”

    “Mr. Tang, I’m sorry. Regarding Emgrand Bank, I feel ashamed that I couldn’t give you absolute trust and made you almost sign a trap contract.”

    Qin Shijie looked apologetic: “My professionalism has been questioned by you. If I stay, there will only be estrangement. Let’s get together and part ways.”

    “This is my resignation letter.”

    “Mr. Tang, goodbye!”

    He bowed to Tang Ruoxue, then turned and left the office… Tang Ruoxue was the only one left in Nuo Da’s office.

    “Bang -” outside the window, a bunch of fireworks soared into the sky, rising slowly in the darkness, and then reached the highest point with a loud bang.

    Fireworks exploded.

    It was colorful and extremely bright, but there was an indescribable loneliness and coldness… Tang Ruoxue didn’t say anything, she just picked up the coffee and took a sip. As she drank, she found that she had already burst into tears in the glass.

    Alone and alone, nothing more than that…
