Chapter 111: Desperate Mrs. Xiao

At this moment, Old Lady Xiao felt as if she had been struck by lightning!

How could this happen?

Just a Ye Chen, yet he possessed such immense power? Even the Wang family had severed ties with her Xiao family?

The thought alone made her heart ache painfully.

She desperately wanted to plead with Wang Zhenggang not to abandon the Xiao family at this critical moment, but he completely ignored her. After announcing the engagement cancellation, he swaggered out with Wang Yunfei.

Xiao Weiwei broke down in tears!

She had devoted years to Wang Yunfei, giving him everything, even carrying his child, and now, everything had vanished into thin air.

This was why she harbored a deep-seated hatred for her grandmother.

Her father, Xiao Changqian, was also extremely frustrated. He had sided with the old lady against his brother’s family, yet it seemed he had gained nothing.

More importantly, his son was injured and captured, and his daughter had been abandoned by her fiancé’s family. It was truly a case of losing both the wife and the soldiers.

He somewhat resentfully said to Old Lady Xiao, “Mom, I usually listen to you, but with this situation, our family has suffered too much loss!”

At this moment, Old Lady Xiao tried to stabilize their emotions and said, “Don’t panic! Why the rush? We can just pay to have Hai Long released. As for Weiwei’s marriage, what do we have to fear? There are plenty of good women who don’t worry about marrying. Our Weiwei is beautiful; I don’t know how many wealthy young masters would line up to pursue her!”

As she spoke, the old lady added, “Don’t forget, we still have the contract with the Dihao Group! This is our Xiao family’s chance to turn things around! If we win this battle, will we still need to rely on the Wang family in the future? Will we still need to depend on the wealthy? We are the wealthy ourselves!”

Xiao Changqian quickly asked, “Mom, the Dihao Group project was previously handled by that dead girl Xiao Churan. Now that she has been kicked out of the Xiao Group, shouldn’t this project and the director position be reassigned?”

“Reassign! Of course, it needs to be reassigned!” The old lady immediately replied, “Don’t worry, I will give this position to Hai Long! Once he is out, he will be the director of the Xiao Group, fully responsible for the cooperation between the Xiao Group and the Dihao Group!”

Xiao Changqian felt a surge of joy; he finally found some comfort.

With such a significant loss, it would indeed be unreasonable for the old lady not to compensate him a bit. Since this project was given to his son, his son would still have a chance to turn things around in the future.

At this moment, Old Lady Xiao instructed, “The cooperation with the Dihao Group must not have any mistakes. When the time comes, let Hai Long fully engage with them. We must successfully complete this project beautifully and even obtain more projects from the Dihao Group!”

Xiao Changqian immediately said, “Mom, rest assured, I will make sure Hai Long gives it his all!”

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

Following that, a man in a suit walked into the courtyard of the Xiao family mansion.

“Excuse me, is Old Lady Xiao home?”

Old Lady Xiao went out to greet him and asked, “I am, who are you?”

The man replied, “Hello, I am the chief lawyer of the Dihao Group.”

Upon hearing he was from the Dihao Group, Old Lady Xiao hurriedly welcomed him, saying, “Oh my! So it’s the chief lawyer of the Dihao Group! Please come in! Please come in!”

“No need.” The man said coldly, “I am here to personally deliver a lawyer’s letter to you.”

“A lawyer’s letter?” Old Lady Xiao asked in surprise, “What kind of lawyer’s letter?”

The man replied, “It’s a termination letter. The Dihao Group has decided to terminate all cooperation with the Xiao family after negotiation, and we will never cooperate with the Xiao family in any form or meaning in the future. Please complete the termination procedures at the Dihao Group within three days of receiving this letter.”

“What?!”

This was like a bolt from the blue for both the old lady and Xiao Changqian!

Just a moment ago, they were saying that the Xiao family’s chance to turn things around relied on the Dihao Group, and now the Dihao Group was here to terminate the contract? And they would never cooperate with the Xiao family again?

This…

This was a complete ban on the Xiao family!

The old lady trembled and asked, “Lawyer, what is going on? Why is this happening? Wasn’t our cooperation going well?”

The lawyer replied coldly, “Our cooperation with Ms. Xiao Churan was good, but we heard that Ms. Xiao Churan has left your Xiao Group. So, sorry, we do not wish to cooperate with you people.”

Only then did Old Lady Xiao realize it was because of Xiao Churan!

She was instantly filled with rage!

Why!

Why must everything revolve around that useless granddaughter?

She was a good-for-nothing! She had married a good-for-nothing!

The Xiao family is under my control, Old Lady Xiao! You should give me face! Why give her face? Why only look at her face?!?!

Old Lady Xiao, somewhat enraged, shouted, “You Dihao Group are considered a reputable company! Just like that, you unilaterally terminate our contract? Don’t you fear that we will sue you in court? Don’t you fear that this matter will affect the reputation of the Dihao Group once it spreads?!”

The lawyer smiled indifferently and said, “Old Lady Xiao, haven’t you read the contract before? For all external cooperation, the Dihao Group has the right to unilaterally terminate the cooperation. This is the privilege of the first party. Haven’t you heard that in construction, the first party is the boss?”

He continued, “Even if the whole of Jinling, or even the entire country, knows that we have terminated our cooperation with you, so what? We are acting reasonably and legally! Moreover, I’m not trying to scare you, Old Lady Xiao, but the Dihao Group has a huge reputation nationwide. Companies we blacklist generally do not dare to cooperate with others, so your Xiao Group should just fend for itself in the future!”

“You… you…” Old Lady Xiao was indeed frightened by these words!

Being blacklisted by the Dihao Group! How would they survive in the future?!

Wasn’t the future of the Xiao Group doomed?!

If a construction company has no one willing to cooperate with it, its only fate is!

Bankruptcy!

No! This can’t happen!

At this moment, the old lady was already hysterical!

The Xiao Group belongs to me!

The Xiao Group should thrive, making me a respected figure! Allowing me to enjoy endless wealth and glory!

It cannot go bankrupt! It absolutely cannot go bankrupt!!!

Thinking of this, the old lady suddenly burst into tears, pleading, “Lawyer, I beg you, for the sake of my old age, please speak to your President Wang Dongxue. I beg you, our Xiao Group’s everything relies on cooperation with your company. At this time, your company cannot abandon us!”

The lawyer sneered, “Sorry, Old Lady, the decision to terminate cooperation and blacklist you was made by our President Wang. Our President Wang also said that someone like you, who is shameless and ungrateful, does not deserve to cooperate with us!”

After saying this, he dropped the termination letter and turned to leave!

Old Lady Xiao, overwhelmed with anger, spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground, unconscious!
