Yun Shishi, meanwhile, was rather astonished to hear such startling news, but the appalled expression on the lady’s face told her that what her son had said must be pretty much true. The puzzled her did not know where the lad got that insider information from, though.
The boy coldly commented, “Aren’t you so clingy toward my father because you’re hoping that he, for the sake of your past friendship, will help the Rong Group tide over this crisis using the Mu Group’s resources?”
“Nonsense!” The guilt-ridden missy tried to refute his words. “I don’t have such thoughts in mind! What nonsense are you spewing?!”
An elegant smile graced his face as he spoke mockingly, “You know it yourself whether I’m spewing nonsense or not. It doesn’t matter to me whether you’re exposed or not. All I’m concerned about is: What right do you, a soon-to-be pauper, have to laugh at my mother’s so-called ‘commoner’ status?”
“You’re being ridiculous!” Looking all livid, Rong Xuan spat, “The Rong Group isn’t a house of cards as you described!”
“Oh? Then, let’s wait and see.”
The Rong Group isn’t a house of cards as I described?
All I need is to resort to a little trick and pressure, and that company will face bankruptcy in no less than two months!
She and her family will end up as paupers and laughingstocks when that time comes.
They will, of course, also no longer be able to survive in Italy, though there’s also no chance for the debt-ridden family to flee the country.
They will end up as nothing but a joke!
Last night, while in the study, he had tasked his trusty subordinate, Agent Lin, to investigate the Rong Group. The results he received, however, made him frown.
Trust her to keep up with appearances by behaving as if she’s a lofty and haughty rich missy when her family is already on the edge of downfall.
Either way, I won’t let her off so easily!
He, thus, pulled a little, dirty trick on her by instructing Li Hanlin to make a call to Italy’s Embassy of the Republic of China. The removal of Liang Qingyi, Rong Xuan’s mother, from her post would be processed urgently within two days, and the official notice of her dismissal would be released three days later.
Once her mother was removed from her position, the young missy’s political career would also soon come to an end.
The nerve she’s got to bully my mother.
Just she waits! I’ll make sure she and her family end up bankrupt!
Let’s see if she can still act so smugly when that time comes.
Like the evil, little gentleman he was, he flashed her a gracious smile and said magnanimously, “Still, if you apologize to my mother now, I may consider sparing the Rong Group.”
“How absurd!” Rong Xuan laughed it off, not at all believing that a child would have such capability to do that.
Besides, there was no way that she would eat the humble pie and apologize to the actress. Her self-esteem would not permit her to do so, much less her pride!
“Hmph, then you’re just asking for trouble.” He then turned around and, in fluent English, ordered the driver, “Throw this woman out of the car.”
The woman, who understood what he said right away, screeched, “I dare you to!”
“You don’t think I dare to do it? Pity, for I’m a man of my words!”
The driver immediately hit the brake, then he alighted to go pull Rong Xuan out of the car. Her struggles were useless against the male driver, and she was dragged off the car in no time.
Caught off guard, she fell to the ground like a heap of mess, while the driver headed back to his seat and closed the door. By the time she lifted her head, the car was already driving off with Youyou elegantly waving his hand at her from an opened window.
