Both of them turned to look at the door at the same time. Mu Xiubai walked in with a cold face, followed by Gu Lanying.
“You don’t think this matter is over just because you’re withdrawing the lawsuit, do you? This is a life, and it’s not even out of danger yet. Once a miscarriage occurs, you’re committing murder, and murder is a much bigger crime than assault.
Your lawyer is outside too. Do you want her to give you a legal talk and tell you how this should be handled?”
After Mu Xiubai finished speaking, Gu Lanying came to her side and took her hand affectionately, just like before.
“Mi Mi, you’re a smart girl. As long as we’re still a family, there’s nothing we can’t solve, don’t you think?”
Ruan Mi frowned, disgusted by Gu Lanying’s touch. She
pulled her hand away, a storm brewing in her eyes.
Looking at Gu Lanying’s hypocritical face reminded her of the two years of bitter medicine she had been drinking, and the fact that she could no longer be a mother.
Ruan Mi: “A family? I’ve never seen a family that poisons their daughter-in-law.
Gu Lanying, your evil deeds make me feel utterly disgusted just thinking about them.”
Gu Lanying was stunned, clearly not expecting her to know.
Ruan Mi sneered and stood up, “If you don’t want others to know, then don’t do it in the first place. If you do too many evil deeds, retribution will come sooner or later.
Since we can’t reach an agreement, then do as you please. I don’t have the extra time to waste with you.”
Seeing Ruan Mi about to leave, Mu Xiubai stepped forward and grabbed her, “Ruan Mi, aren’t you afraid of going to jail?”
Ruan Mi shook off Mu Xiubai’s hand, “Let me go to jail? We’ll see if you have the ability.”
She had Bo Ye; without concrete evidence, who would dare to put her in jail?
Seeing Ruan Mi’s fearlessness, Mu Xiubai immediately realized the key.
But he didn’t believe that an assistant from the Bo Group would have such great power.
He wanted to make Ruan Mi understand the price of going against him.
As a result, the next day’s entertainment news was filled with stories of Mu Group executives assaulting employees and protecting company leaders.
The news swept across the entire Mu Group.
“What’s going on? Didn’t I tell you to warn them not to release any news about Mu Group? Why is this happening?”
Mu Xiubai angrily scattered all the documents on his desk and roared at his assistant.
Assistant: “Mr. Mu, I warned them about the news, but they all say Mu Group offended someone they shouldn’t have.”
“Someone they shouldn’t have offended?”
Mu Xiubai immediately thought of Ruan Mi. Yes, it must have been Ruan Mi who contacted Gu Tianyi.
At this moment, the office door was pushed open, and it was Gu Lanying.
“Xiubai, have you seen the news? We must suppress it as soon as possible. So many eyes are watching; Mu Group’s stock market cannot be affected any further.”
Mu Xiubai regained his composure, gave his assistant a wink, and the assistant quickly left.
Mu Xiubai sat back down, leaning back in his chair, and pinched the bridge of his nose.
“I know, but now Ruan Mi wants to compete with me and wants to get rid of the trending topic. She has to take the initiative.”
Gu Lanying sat down opposite Mu Xiubai, and after thinking for a long time, she finally spoke.
“Xiubai, since Ruan Mi is so unyielding, let’s give in. Doesn’t she want to take that junior employee away?
Let her take her away, satisfy her request first.”
Seeing Mu Xiubai’s impatient expression, she persuaded him again, “Haven’t you figured it out yet? Ruan Mi has some ability now, and she’s different from before.
You can’t control her with the old methods anymore. She has loved you for five years. As long as you lower your stance now, coax her, pamper her, and slowly awaken her love for you, your success is just around the corner.
You should have seen what happened this time. Even the assistant of the president of the Bo Group can have a lot of influence in Haishi. Think about it, if you can make it in the capital,
who will dare to point fingers at you in the future?”
Gu Lanying kept coaxing him, and Mu Xiubai lowered his eyes, his fingers slowly tightening.
Gu Lanying: “Zhou Mei’s child can’t stay any longer. Take this opportunity to send her away and cut ties completely. Women are just tools for you to climb the social ladder.”
Mu Xiubai’s eyes flashed with ruthlessness. Yes, a woman and a child. Even if she saved his life, so what? He had already given enough.
Before they knew it, it was time for Bo Yuan to return to the country.
Ruan Mi personally went to the airport to pick her up, but instead of going home, the two went directly to the largest entertainment club in Haishi.
They also brought Zhang Nan and Zhang Qian.
They drank and danced, completely absorbed in their pleasure.
Looking at the male models serving her on either side, Bo Yuan couldn’t stop smiling.
Handsome faces, drool-worthy bodies.
Ruan Mi was also a little tipsy, and replied with a grin, “Of course, my sister knows you well. Feel free to touch me, I’ve paid for it.”
Zhang Qian had never seen anything like this before. Such a luxurious entertainment club was beyond her means.
Especially with so many handsome men, she was so reserved that she didn’t know where to put her hands.
Zhang Nan, on the other hand, seemed much more at ease. Having grown up abroad, she was used to such places of entertainment.
She sipped her wine slowly.
Glancing at the two who were quite drunk, she shook her head helplessly.
Ruan Mi swayed as she stood up. “You guys continue, I’m going to the restroom.”
Bo Yuan tried to accompany her, but Zhang Nan stopped her.
“One drunkard with another drunkard, how can they possibly come back?”
Zhang Nan said to Zhang Qian, supporting Ruan Mi.
Zhang Qian nodded, “Don’t worry, I’ll watch Miss Bo.”
She helped Ruan Mi to the bathroom door, just as her phone rang at the most inopportune moment.
Ruan Mi was slightly drunk, but still conscious.
Ruan Mi: “Sister Nan, I can manage by myself, you answer the phone!”
“Okay, I’ll stay by the door.”
Zhang Nan stepped back to answer the phone, while Ruan Mi went to the bathroom alone.
Just as she was about to sit on the toilet, she heard rustling sounds.
Ruan Mi felt the voices were somewhat familiar, and pressed her ear against the toilet seat.
“No, I almost miscarried a couple of days ago, and the pregnancy isn’t stable yet.”
“Baby, I’ll be gentle, I promise it’ll be fine.”
“Oh no, you don’t want a son anymore? Be good, listen to me, I’ll come find you when I’m better.”
Ruan Mi instantly sobered up halfway.
This wasn’t Zhou Mei’s voice, but the man’s voice wasn’t Mu Xiubai’s either.
“You lied to me again! You said you’d only stay in the country for a few days, and so much time has passed, and you still haven’t gone back.
Tell me, are you planning to take my son and live happily ever after with someone else?”
The man was clearly angry, and Zhou Mei quickly tried to soothe him gently.
“Are you stupid? Mu Xiubai is so rich, and now he’s convinced this child is his. The Mu family will all belong to our son.
Where else can you find such a good thing?”
The man seemed appeased. “Fine, then give me another 100,000 yuan, but you still won’t let me touch him. I’m so uncomfortable.”
“Here you go, find someone clean. If you get a disease, I won’t want you anymore.”
“Don’t worry.”
The bathroom door opened, and Ruan Mi held her breath.
She only came out when there was no one else in the bathroom.
The child in Zhou Mei’s belly wasn’t Mu Xiubai’s.
