Zhou Manbai brought her aching body back to the Zhou residence. In the dark of the night, the house that was originally brightly lit and quiet was now bustling with activity. Everyone was moving the furniture and electrical appliances away from the house as they walked past her at a rapid pace.

Zhou Manbai grabbed one of them. “What are you doing! Where are you taking the things!”

“Madam Zhou, the Zhou family’s company underwent bankrupt liquidation a few days ago. The property has been pledged to the bank. It’s useless for you to come back here. Find a place to stay.”

Zhou Manbai’s mind went blank. Her body swayed unsteadily. “Impossible!”

“The people from the bank are here. Mr. Zhou has been detained because of the illegal operation of the company. Go and have a look. It’s of no use to be standing here.”

Zhou Manbai felt as if the world was collapsing.

Wen Yanqing’s words flashed through her mind. “It’s not like there’s no way to save the Zhou family. Go to the police station and confess that you hired a hitman. Can you do it?”

Zhou Manbai shook her head frantically. No, no! She could not turn herself in!

Once she turned herself in, her extravagant life would be finished! She would have no money, no wealth!

She didn’t want to go to jail, and she didn’t want to apologize. Zhou Manbai ran away like a madman, looking pathetic and ugly in the night.

Zhou Manbai was penniless. She dragged her tired legs and banged on the Wen family’s door in the middle of the night.

Her crazed actions woke the owner of the house.

A servant came out and informed Wen Rendong upon seeing Zhou Manbai.

Wen Rendong put on a coat and came out to see Zhou Manbai in a sorry state. He was extremely surprised.

“Wen Rendong, tell Wen Yanqing to stop, tell him to stop!” Zhou Manbai grabbed Wen Rendong’s hand and said, “Are you going to watch him drive me to my grave? Get him to stop!”

Wen Rendong had already heard that Shengfang was preparing to acquire the Zhou family’s enterprise. He frowned and looked at Zhou Manbai, who was filthy and looked like a lunatic. “What did you do to provoke him again? Yanqing has a good temper. If it wasn’t for you being aggressive, he wouldn’t even be willing to give you a look.”

What did she do? She drugged him, she tried to bite him back and make him lose the love of his life. She was so ruthless that he wanted him to die!

“What did I do?” Zhou Manbai gritted her teeth. “Why don’t you ask what your son has done? You’ve been biased towards him from the beginning. I’m nothing in your eyes!”

“He’s my son. Shouldn’t I be biased towards him?” Wen Rendong distanced himself from her. He was really afraid that she would suddenly go off her rocker and hurt someone. “Yanqing is open and aboveboard. Don’t frame him. I didn’t bother about the dirty tricks you used while in the Wen family, but it doesn’t mean that I wasn’t aware of them.”

“I’ll kneel down and kowtow to you.” Zhou Manbai went all out.

“Fine, I’ll call him for you.”

After all, they had once been husband and wife. Back then, Wen Yanqing was the one who had requested for the divorce. Otherwise, he might not have let Zhou Manbai leave.

The call went through and he pressed the speaker button. “What’s going on with Zhou Manbai? She came to me and asked for you to stop. She’s begging you.”

“Beg me? What did she say in my office?” Wen Yanqing was woken up from his sleep. His voice was low and not as gentle as it was during the day. “Isn’t she not dead yet? Can’t she take this?”

“Wen Yanqing!!” Zhou Manbai roared.

“Shh, I’ll be angry if you wake Tangtang.”

Wen Rendong looked at the phone that had been hung up. He knew that Fang Xin’s son had not let go, so he refused to get close to his father as well.

“Please leave.” Wen Rendong thought of Fang Xin and felt that there was no need to pity Zhou Manbai. “If you had known this would happen, you wouldn’t have done so. You will have to pay back your debt sooner or later..”
