She did not want to owe anything to Dongfang Mu.

Although she was nominally his assistant, in reality, they had an equal partnership.

However, if she was in debt to him, both monetarily and in gratitude, the balance would be upset, making her feel inferior when she saw him.

But, she really did not have any money to spare, and she did not have anything to sell like Qiao Haidong and Jiang Huiru.

It was not something she could ask her grandma for money over.

As she sat on her bed in the bedroom, thinking hard about possible solutions, her phone rang.

It was Dongfang Mu who was calling.

Qiao Yin answered the call: “Young Master Mu.”

“Qiao Yin, you don’t have to return the twenty million to me.”

“What are you saying, Young Master Mu? Of course, this money has to be returned. I appreciate your generous help, but please don’t do this again, consult me before helping me next time.”

“Are you angry?”

“No, it’s getting late, Young Master Mu. You’ve had quite some wine at noon. You should get some rest!”

“Qiao Yin!”

“Do you need anything else?”

“I want to apologize for my mother’s visit to you today. I didn’t know she was going to see you again; she misunderstood our relationship. I will make it clear to her.”

“Thank you, Young Master Mu.”

“Why…why are you suddenly being so polite to me?”

“I’ve always been polite to you.”

After saying this, Qiao Yin hung up.

She knew she had been unusually cold during their conversation because she was really upset.

Dongfang Mu had taken it upon himself to give Qiao Haidong twenty million, raising Qiao Haidong’s hopes and further inflating his greed.

It would lead to endless trouble in the future!

While Qiao Yin was preoccupied with watching out for Qiao Haidong, she hadn’t expected a problem to arise from Dongfang Mu.

If she didn’t return this money, she would owe him a favor. If she returned it, she felt extremely unwilling, as the money had already ended up in Qiao Haidong’s pocket!

Previously, she had often resented Lu Lingche for his stinginess.

But it wasn’t until today that she realized a man being overly generous wasn’t necessarily a good thing either.

Luckily, Lu Lingche was stingy, so except for the twenty million bride price, Qiao Haidong couldn’t get a penny from him. Otherwise, she didn’t know how much she would end up owing Lu Lingche!

Qiao Haidong also knew that he couldn’t get any money out of Lu Lingche, so he had given up on trying to get money from him.

Qiao Yin sat blankly, suddenly remembering Qiao Haidong mentioning that Lu Lingche was going to marry Lan Yuyi next Saturday, and they were going to hold a wedding.

Their first wedding hadn’t finished due to her intervention.

She wondered what their new wedding would be like.

This time, she had no reason to go anymore.

While she was still struggling in the mire of life, he was about to marry another woman, embarking on a completely new phase of life.

He must be very happy now, right?

Shengling Corporation.

It was ten o’clock in the evening, but Lu Lingche was still working at the corporation’s office.

He didn’t feel happy at all right now.

Because Wanann Finance, which he had considered a sure thing, had been taken over by the Eastern Empire.

Lu Mingzhen, with anger written all over his face, said, “What the hell can you do? You’ve lost another project! If your older brother was still here, we would never have lost this project, let alone to the Eastern Empire!”

However, Lu Lingche’s expression remained calm. In an indifferent tone, he said, “If we’ve lost this one, we can find another financial company to invest in.”

“Of course, we can invest in another company, but the takeover of Wanann Finance is a huge blow to our reputation! It’s no longer about the project. This is a new round of competition between our corporation and the Eastern Empire, and we’ve lost again!”

“I’ll win it back.”

“Do you think I’ll trust you again? Do you think the members of the Board of Directors will trust you again?! All the work you’ve done so far has benefited Dongfang Mu! The members of the board think you’re not even up to Dongfang Mu’s par, a playboy! They’re asking for your resignation!”
