"If the old lady has heard some rumors outside, please do not take them seriously. Shu Xia and our relationship are very good; our family just had some misunderstandings," Lin Bin said hurriedly.

The things done a few days ago were too thoughtless and caused such a stir in Jing City; it was no wonder Qiao the old lady would question them.

Their impression of them was even extremely poor.

However, it seemed the old lady had a very good impression of Shu Xia?

That made things easy!

Lin Guanda's head was covered in a layer of sweat from nervousness, and it was hard to maintain his composure under Qiao the old lady's sharp gaze. Fortunately, Lin Bin reacted quickly, "Yes, those messy rumors outside are mostly fake; even some small matters get blown out of proportion by the media."

Steward Qin, standing to the side, could see that the old lady did not want to waste any more breath on these two people.

He stepped forward and said, "Is the old lady tired? Let me help the old lady upstairs to rest."

Qiao the old lady nodded, "Mm."

Seeing Qiao the old lady stand up and clearly not wanting to talk to them more, Lin Guanda said urgently, "We came today actually with another request. We hope the Qiao Family can, for the sake of Shu Xia being with Qiao, help our Lin Family out. Our Lin Family's company has recently encountered some small problems; as long as Qiao helps a little, our problems will be easily solved."

"If the Qiao Family helps us, that would make you our family's benefactors. Whatever the Qiao Family asks us to do in the future, we will agree to it," Lin Bin followed up with a promise.

Qiao the old lady looked at the two people as if she were looking at a joke.

Being so self-righteous, what did they take Xia Xia for? They must have treated Xia Xia even worse than she had imagined before!

If they really treated Xia Xia well, would they still be calling her by her full name, Shu Xia, right now? They would have long since changed Xia Xia's surname.

"Steward Qin, have someone throw them out. Give the order: since the people from the Lin Family came to disturb my rest today, from now on, no one in the Qiao Family is allowed to have any cooperation with the Lin Family!" Qiao the old lady gave the order to Steward Qin.

Steward Qin immediately gave a look to the people nearby.

Several people immediately stepped forward, all with cold expressions, "Please..."

Lin Guanda and Lin Bin, father and son, were both somewhat bewildered.

What was going on?

Seeing that the two did not know where they had gone wrong, Steward Qin sneered, "Get out, quickly."

No matter how bewildered Lin Guanda and Lin Bin were, or how good they were at flowery speech and twisting the truth, there was no room for it now; several servants stepped forward to drive the two away.

And it was only after they were driven out that the two realized what had happened.

Had they just offended Qiao the old lady?

Could it be that Qiao the old lady did not like Shu Xia? That was why she did not value them?

If Qiao the old lady's words just now were spread, it would be a complete disaster for their family.

"What should we do now? How could we have offended Qiao the old lady?" The more Lin Guanda thought about it, the more his scalp tingled.

The people they had offended recently were one more formidable than the last.

Lin Bin's face was also incomparably pale, his hands clenched into Boxing, his lips pressed tight, "Dad, our family might be beyond saving!"

Now it seemed that doing anything was futile, and the more they tried to find a way to salvage the situation, the more uncontrollable it became.

"No, the company cannot go bankrupt! My hard work of many years cannot just disappear like this. Go find Qiao Muting! Go find Qiao Muting right now! While Qiao Muting hasn't grown tired of Shu Xia yet, go find him!" Lin Guanda was in a state of near-madness.

Lin Bin took a deep breath, "Qiao Muting might be even harder to deal with. If we go to him, we might invite even bigger trouble!"

"I can't worry about that much anymore; he is my last option! We must try. Let's go, right now!" Lin Guanda immediately got into the car and told the driver to drive to Qiao Group.
