h4Chapter 1119: Chapter 1119: Desperate Path (Additional Update)/h4

    Shang Kaiwen returned to the hotel, the more she thought about it, the more something felt off, her head was throbbing painfully. Bai Xiao’s actions today were unusually difficult to predict, and she was somewhat stunned, resulting in the situation turning out this way.

    Now the Shang Family was in jeopardy. Bai Jingshan was ruthless, not only refusing to sign a contract with the Shang Family but also spreading the word that the Bai family was fully acquiring the Shang family.

    Not only Bai Jingshan, but Jiang Shaoqing had also announced aprehensive blockade of the Shang family and began an acquisition targeting them.

    With these two announcementsbined, it seemed they were determined to ruin the Shang familypletely.

    Who would still be willing to cooperate with the Shang family?

    Does anyone want to provoke the Bai family’s oppression and drag their own family into it?

    Or is there anyone brave enough to offend Jiang Shaoqing and the Jiang Family!

    Last night, she had that dream, and when she woke up this morning, she was quite pleased. In the dream, Bai Xiao waspletelypliant with her, probably because she had some hold over her. As long as she had leverage over Bai Xiao, Bai Xiao would only be able to be used by her in the future. Surely, Bai Jingshan would also be hers to control, and she could decide Bai Xiao’s fate at her whim.

    So she went confidently, fully expecting that Bai Xiao would be scared and immediately follow her, leading the Shang family to reach the pinnacle of life.

    But who knew things would bepletely different.

    Now back in the hotel room, the more she thought about it, the more wrong it felt.

    Bai Xiao was not afraid at all; she didn’t know what Bai Xiao’s trump card was, but being hit like this by Bai Xiao, Shang Kaiwen felt she couldn’t figure something out. It was all the fault of her dream, which always made no sense whatsoever. She had been dreaming like this for over a year, and finally, she dreamed that Bai Xiao had some unique ability others didn’t have. In the dream, many people flocked to her for treatment.

    Those old, frail, wealthy people, pushed in wheelchairs by others or flown in by private nes to see Bai Xiao, and then all these people left, lively and energetic. What happened to themter, she really didn’t know. She just knew that those people’s white hair turned ck. Isn’t this enough to prove Bai Xiao’s skill for Eternal Youth?

    But Bai Xiao wasn’t afraid at all.

    What was going on?

    Shang Kaiwen felt she hadn’t uncovered the mystery.

    Now Bai Xiao had yed her again, and today many peopleughed at her.

    Now, given Bai Xiao’s connections and reputation, including her notoriety, who would stand by her?

    She made a big mistake today, got too arrogant.

    Shang Kaiwen’s phone rang.

    "Hello, Dad!"

    "Kaiwen,e back, there’s trouble at home. Themercial and tax authorities are auditing us now, ourpany has issues, and as thepany’s person-in-charge and legal representative, you need toe back immediately," Shang Feng said anxiously, with Shang Family now almost facing bankruptcy.

    Almost everypany was under scrutiny. Even if there were no issues, problems would still arise, without needing any set-up or false charges against us. Suchpanies likely have engaged in some shady dealings, more or less to some extent, like tax evasion or dodging, deceiving others. Walking the gray edge means greasing palms, everyone stays peaceful.

    But now, someone was going to conduct a full examination, surely they couldn’t hide anything, and they would uncover something for sure.

    "Dad, I’ll call Wang Ruo’an immediately, only the Wang Family can save us now."

    Shang Kaiwen’s head was throbbing even more; she kept massaging her temples, so much pain that she felt like cracking open her skull for a look, thinking maybe she had been too stressed these past few days.

    "Yes, yes, call Wang Ruo’an. If it doesn’t work, marry Xiaowang as soon as possible. As long as you marry, you be the Wang family’s daughter-inw. By then, the Wang family can’t not save the Shang family. I know, Wang Ruo’an’s uncle’spany is a Fortune 500 enterprise.

    Coborating with our Shang Group, reviving it wouldn’t take long at all."

    Shang Feng was willing to trade a daughter for the Shang family’s safety, even willing to sacrifice his wife.

    The Shang family couldn’t fall in his hands.

    "Dad, the Wang Family won’t agree to a marriage alliance with us. You forgot about the matter with the Yu Family some time ago. Although Wang Ruo’an eventually escaped from that matter! But because of that, Wang Ruo’an is now watched over by his father, he can’t act freely. Inspector Wang won’t agree to us being together," Shang Kaiwen thought.

    But Inspector Wang wasn’t like others, not hot-headed to get tied with Shang Kaiwen.

    Even if Wang Ruo’an liked her, he wouldn’t forsake his power for beauty.

    She wanted the power.

    Inspector Wang might really strip Wang Ruo’an of his session rights for her sake, as he was stubborn and conservative, sticking to old ways, what to do?

    Even before marriage, Wang Ruo’an almost caused major trouble for her, in Inspector Wang’s eyes, she was a femme fatale.

    "Say no more, you’re so smart, Kaiwen, only the family can rely on you now. Dad promises, as long as you help the family get through this crisis, I’ll hand over the Shang family to you, anyway, you’re the legal representative of thepany, and I’ll transfer all actual powers to you.

    Dad is old, your brother went too early, now the family relies on you. I don’t want Kaihua, Kaijue to take over thepany. Your second uncle’s two sons are eager, wishing to bring us down now.

    If you can’t hold your ground, the position will really change,"

    Shang Feng knew what meant most to Shang Kaiwen, seemingly using a motivational tactic.

    The Wang family was their hope.

    Shang Kaiwen rubbed her forehead, "Dad, I understand, wait for my news, I’ll book a ticket home today."

    Hanging up the phone, Shang Kaiwen felt dejected inside.

    Could it be the end of the road!

    If not so, why would Shang Feng agree to hand over the position? If it weren’t for father’s continuous bad decisions, maybe things wouldn’t be that troublesome, it was her overestimating Bai Jingshan, never expecting Bai Jingshan to be Bai Xiao’s father.

    A miscalction.

    Now the Bai Family, Jiang Family were against them, to stand firm, they must find an ally.

    Wang Ruo’an seems to be the best choice.

    She naturally knew Wang Ruo’an’s feelings for her, this man was someone she could have by her side with a wave.

    Even though Inspector Wang conducted himself with firmness and righteousness, Wang Ruo’an followed her every word, but his strongest support was his uncle, Qu Zhaotian.

    Qu Zhaotian had fully supported Wang Ruo’an in establishing the Wang Group, and it was Qu Zhaotian who helped Wang Ruo’an stabilize step by step, which made Wang Group what it is today, Qu Zhaotian yed a crucial role.

    Especially, Qu Zhaotian’s own family business was run sessfully, not inferior to Wang Group, their joint force was Wang Ruo’an’s capital.

    Since Qu Zhaotian had no child, only this nephew from his sister, he could be said to be the sessor of both families, having all expectations.

    She hadn’t agreed to Wang Ruo’an because there was always a lingering thought.

    That obsession was apparently unwilling to die.

    Perhaps it’s truly time to end it.
