"You mean... Are you implying that I should abandon them, Mo? I..." Tang Lingyun stuttered as she looked at her husband in disbelief. "Then what are you going to do Lingyun? The Tang family is done for. I am sure someone will reach out to you soon to audit your accounts too. Do you want to go down with them?" Qin Mo calmly asked, his gaze was still on the view outside the window. "I..." "I am not saying that you should abandon them. Rather, you should issue a statement that you are estranged from…

"I heard that the Tang family’s compound was raided last night. Was it you?" Lily asked while eating the Caesar salad that Zhuo Jingren made for her. It was already Monday, exactly a week after women groups started filing cases against the Tang father and son. Within the week, various criminal cases were filed against the Tang family, prompting the government to perform a thorough investigation on them. As the matter with the Tang family was huge, the government couldn’t be seen to be indifferent…

"I miss you more," Zhuo Jingren said hugging her. How could she still have the heart to carry out her initial plan of ignoring him when he’s so sweet like that? In a way, he had given her his answer in that response. Lily then burrowed her head into his chest, inhaling his scent. "You’re home," Lily uttered before her face bloomed into a beautiful smile. Though, she was a little surprised, she also could not deny the fact that she was indeed happy to see him. She realized that she was becoming…

It was Saturday and Lily decided to catch up on some paperwork that had been piling up. It had been a rather busy week. Last night, Lily ended up not sending another text message to Zhuo Jingren. To her surprise, the latter did not contact her too. Lily didn’t think she would get upset about Zhuo Jingren’s lack of response but she did. Was it reasonable? No. But this would give her a good reason to tease him a little. She knew that Zhuo Jingren was returning soon and she was planning to…

"So, I heard that Qin Fei had an argument with someone from your past?" Yang Lina went straight to the point. She had heard that the woman whom Qin Fei was arguing with was actually her sister, who is now a business tycoon in Europe. Yang Lina knew that Qin Fei only had one sister and her name is Qin Jinghua, Xuan Hui’s ex-fiancé. "Yes," Xuan Hui answered. Xuan Hui’s response earned a few seconds of silence from his mother. "That photo from seven years ago." Yang Lina made a deliberate pause.…

"Xuan Hui! I did not raise you to talk to me this way!" Yang Lina said imposingly as she rose from her seat. "And why are you being so defensive? I merely wanted to have a good talk with her. Can’t I even do that?" "Mother, please... Qin Fei is tired. It’s late and we have-" "Hui, it’s not like you don’t know. Our Yang family is prestigious because of our military background. We have a reputation to uphold. I always knew that nothing good can come from the Tang family. Stupidity also runs in…

"How is that possible? Tang Wei Dong is usually very careful" Xuan Hui frowned. As the heir of the Tang family, Tang Wei Dong would naturally be exposed to the illegal dealings in his family and that included drugs. However, he was usually very careful and his arrest baffled everyone. "I need to go and see your uncle and grandfather," Tang Lingyun said. Tang Lingyun’s brother, Tang Jian, was the Tang family’s current Patriarch. Though Tang Jian was ruthless in business, he had the tendency to spoil…

New York. Meanwhile, Zhuo Jingren was staring at his phone as he read Lily’s text over and over again. It was currently ten in the morning of Friday at New York and he was having an end of the quarter meeting with some of his executives from Zhuo Capital’s branches in South America and the US. It was the time of the year when Zhuo Jingren would be updated of the profits and growth of these overseas branches. However, it seemed that the president was not even listening to the reports made by his…

Lily watched as Xuan Hui carried Qin Fei away with an unfathomable expression on his face. To be honest, Lily did not foresee that Qin Fei would try to stop her after she ended their confrontation. She also definitely didn’t foresee that Qin Fei would lose her balance and fall into the pool in an attempt to stop her. After all, Qin Fei was pregnant and Lily expected her to exercise some caution. However, since the opportunity already presented itself, Lily wasn’t going to be polite to Qin Fei. She…

The people who were gathered around them all froze after hearing what Lily said. Some women even covered their mouths in shock. How could Lily be so blunt? Compared to Lily, these women, comprising actresses and models were all soft inside and lack the strong and tough spirit that Lily possessed. Even though most of these women didn’t have an average background, they still wouldn’t have the guts to be as fearless as Lily. They would avoid public confrontations and choose to scheme in the dark…
