Chapter 111
Old Mrs. Xiao felt as if she had been struck by lightning!
How could it be like this?
A mere Ye Chen—how could he have such great power? To the point that even the Wang family had broken ties with her Xiao family?
At the thought of this, her heart throbbed with pain.
She desperately wanted to beg Wang Zhenggang not to abandon the Xiao family at this time, but the other party ignored her completely. After stating he was calling off the engagement, he swaggered away with Wang Yunfei.
Xiao Weiwei broke down in tears!
She had clung to Wang Yunfei for several years and given him everything, even carrying his child, and now, everything had vanished into thin air.
Therefore, she harbored a deep, bone-searing hatred for her grandmother in her heart.
Her father, Xiao Changqian, was also very depressed. He had followed the old lady to go against his younger brother's family, yet he seemed to have gained nothing at all.
More importantly, his son was injured and arrested, and his daughter had been abandoned by her fiancé's family; this was truly a case of losing the battle and the bride.
He complained to Old Mrs. Xiao, "Mom, I usually listen to you in everything, but at this point, my family has suffered too great a loss!"
Old Mrs. Xiao tried to stabilize their emotions at this moment and said, "Don't panic! What are you rushing for? Just spend some money to bail Hailong out. As for Weiwei's marriage, what is there to fear? A good girl doesn't worry about finding a husband; our Weiwei is beautiful, and there's no telling how many wealthy young masters will line up to pursue her!"
As she spoke, the old lady added, "Don't forget, we still have the contract with the Emgrand Group in our hands! This is the battle for our Xiao family's comeback! If we win this battle, will our Xiao family still need to rely on the Wang family in the future? Do we still need to attach ourselves to a wealthy family? We will be a wealthy family ourselves!"
Xiao Changqian asked hurriedly, "Mom, the Emgrand Group project was always managed by that dead girl Xiao Churan. Now that she has been kicked out of the Xiao Group, shouldn't this project and the director's position be given to someone else?"
"Change it! Of course, we must change it!" The old lady blurted out immediately, "Don't worry, I will save this position for Hailong! Once Hailong is out, he will be the director of the Xiao Group, fully responsible for the cooperation between the Xiao Group and the Emgrand Group!"
Xiao Changqian felt a surge of joy; he finally found some comfort.
With such a huge loss, it would be unreasonable if the old lady didn't compensate him a little. Since this project was given to his son, his son would still have a chance to make a comeback in the future.
Old Mrs. Xiao instructed, "The cooperation with the Emgrand Group must not have any mistakes. When the time comes, let Hailong go all out to handle the connection. We must complete this project beautifully and even obtain more projects from the Emgrand Group!"
Xiao Changqian said immediately, "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely make Hailong go all out!"
Just as they were talking, someone knocked on the door.
Immediately after, a man in a suit walked into the courtyard of the Xiao family mansion.
"Excuse me, is Old Mrs. Xiao at home?"
Old Mrs. Xiao went out to greet him and asked, "I am. Who are you?"
The other party said, "Hello, I am the chief lawyer of the Emgrand Group."
Upon hearing that it was someone from the Emgrand Group, Old Mrs. Xiao hurriedly and enthusiastically said, "Oh my, oh my! So it's a great lawyer from the Emgrand Group! Please come in! Please come in!"
"No need." The other party said in a cold tone, "I came here to deliver a lawyer's letter to you in person."
"A lawyer's letter?" Old Mrs. Xiao asked in surprise, "What kind of lawyer's letter?"
The other party said, "A letter of termination. After consultation, our Emgrand Group has decided to terminate all cooperation with the Xiao family, and we will never have any form or sense of cooperation with the Xiao family in the future. Please go to the Emgrand Group to complete the termination procedures within three days of receiving this letter."
"What?!"
For the old lady and Xiao Changqian, this was simply a bolt from the blue!
They had just said that the Xiao family's reliance for a comeback was the Emgrand Group, and now the Emgrand Group was coming to terminate the contract? And they would never cooperate with the Xiao family again?
This...
This was meant to blacklist the Xiao family!
The old lady asked tremblingly, "Lawyer, may I ask what is going on? Why is it like this? Weren't we cooperating just fine?"
The lawyer said coldly, "Our cooperation with Ms. Xiao Churan was very good, but I heard that Ms. Xiao Churan has already left your Xiao Group. In that case, I'm sorry, but we don't want to cooperate with people like you."
Old Mrs. Xiao finally understood—it was Xiao Churan!
She was instantly furious!
Why!
Why did everyone have to revolve around that unpromising granddaughter?
She was just a loser! She herself had even married a loser!
The Xiao family is run by me, Old Mrs. Xiao; you should be giving me face! Why give her face? Why only look at her face!?!
Old Mrs. Xiao was somewhat angry and blurted out, "Your Emgrand Group is considered a big company with a reputation! To unilaterally terminate our contract so casually, aren't you afraid that we will go to court to sue you? Aren't you afraid that after this matter gets out, it will affect the reputation of your Emgrand Group?!"
The lawyer smiled indifferently and said, "Old Mrs. Xiao, haven't you read the contract before? For all our external cooperation at the Emgrand Group, we have the right to unilaterally stop the cooperation. This is the privilege of the party of the first part. Haven't you heard that in construction, the party of the first part is the boss?"
As he spoke, the lawyer added, "So what if the whole of Jin Ling, or even the whole country, knows that we have terminated our cooperation with you? We are acting reasonably, fairly, and legally! And I'm not trying to scare you, Old Mrs. Xiao, but our Emgrand Group has a huge reputation nationwide. Companies we blacklist generally don't dare to cooperate with others, so your Xiao Group should just pray for its own luck in the future!"
"You... you..." Old Mrs. Xiao was indeed frightened by these words!
Blacklisted by the Emgrand Group! How could they survive in the future?!
Wouldn't the future of the Xiao Group be finished?!
If a construction company had no one willing to cooperate with it, there was only one outcome!
Bankruptcy!
No! This cannot be!
The old lady was already hysterical!
The Xiao Group is mine!
The Xiao Group should be flourishing, making me an object of respect for everyone! Letting me enjoy endless glory and wealth!
It cannot go bankrupt! It absolutely cannot go bankrupt!!!
Thinking of this, the old lady burst into tears and begged, "Lawyer, I beg you, for the sake of my old age, please speak to your President Wang Dongxue and plead for us. Everything the Xiao Group has is pinned on the cooperation with your company. At a time like this, your company cannot abandon us!"
The lawyer sneered, "I'm sorry, old lady. The decision not to cooperate with you and to blacklist you was made by our President Wang. Our President Wang also said that an old thing like you, who does not behave with dignity and is utterly shameless, is not worthy of cooperating with us!"
After finishing, he dropped the termination letter and turned to leave!
Old Mrs. Xiao was so angry that she spat out a large mouthful of blood and immediately collapsed to the ground, unconscious!
