Chapter: 333

Xiao Changkun shook his head and sighed, "In the past, Mei Ping was a big shot in Jinling real estate, with money and power. He didn't know who he had offended, and it ended like this."

"He's that kind of person, bankruptcy is just what they deserve." Xiao Huren's face turned cold and unemotional, showing no sympathy for the scheming wolf.

Ma Ran lamented, "So, it's true that starting one's own business is very risky? There's a possibility that you won't make money and might even lose your life!"

After saying that, she looked at Xiao Huren, speaking decisively, "That's why I don't want you to start any studios! The risk is too great! As I said, go back to the Xiao family group, grandma has already agreed to let you be the managing director. After you return, you can take home a million-dollar annual salary, which is much better than starting your own business."

Leaf Chen pretended not to know, exclaiming in surprise, "Is that so? It's so pitiful!"

Xiao Changkun shook his head and sighed, "In the past, Mei Ping was a big shot in Jinling real estate, with money and power. He didn't know who he had offended, and it ended like this."

As I said, go back to the Xiao family group, grandma has already agreed to let you be the managing director. After you return, you can take home a million-dollar annual salary, which is much better than starting your own business.

Mother always advises me to go back to the Xiao family group, but I'm really puzzled and asked, "Mom, what did Grandma feed me that kind of magic potion? Why do you want me to go back to the Xiao family group?"

Ma Ran also got anxious and said, "The Xiao family group has a million-dollar annual salary waiting for you! Isn't that stronger than starting your own business? What if you start your own business and lose money? How will my dad take care of us then?"

I spoke firmly and said, "Mom, don't say another word. I absolutely won't go back to the Xiao family group, even if I have to beg on the streets! I won't fight for a meal, but I'll fight for my dignity!"

Ma Ran looked at me with a mixture of anger and disappointment, scolding, "You're fighting for your dignity? What's the use of that without any money?"

Ma Ran finished speaking, wiping away her tears, saying in a pitiful tone, "The Xiao family company is on the verge of bankruptcy now. If it really goes bankrupt, I won't even have an inheritance to rely on! You know we're relying on this pension for our old age! And besides, even if Grandma doesn't accept Dad, Dad still has some shares in the Xiao family group. If you don't go back, that dividend will be lost too! We'll be left with nothing after we retire. What will we do then?"

I blurted out, "Mom, this is because the Xiao family is running their business poorly! If they really go bankrupt, it's only natural!"

Ma Ran was taken aback and immediately got anxious, saying, "How can you talk like that? We've been suffering for so many years in the Xiao family, bearing with them patiently. Now look at the situation - we've worked hard all these years and achieved nothing! You're always considering my feelings, but I want to consider yours too! Can't you support me just once?"

Ma Ran realized she was wronged and couldn't argue with me any further. She sat down on the couch, covering her face and crying uncontrollably, muttering, "Oh, how unlucky am I! I've spent my whole life sacrificing for my daughter's future, hoping she'll marry well and become a respected person. But now? You're not listening to me anymore, and this family has lost all its dignity... What's the point of living then?"

I saw Mom starting to make a scene and trying to guilt-trip me, so I also got anxious and said, "Mom, don't do that! Can't you leave Leaf Chen alone? Leaf Chen is already making progress now. After a while, when that house is renovated, you can move in. Isn't that asking for Leaf Chen's good fortune?"

Ma Ran cried and said, "What's the point of moving in? Moving in won't change anything. I'll just be worried sick, afraid that the Wang family will suddenly react and chase us out again?"

Xiao Churan let out a sigh and said, "If you insist on crying and making a scene, then I have no choice but to consider renting an apartment outside with Leaf Chen and moving out."

"You...," Ma Ran heard this and suddenly felt anxious, stood up and said, "Are you trying to separate us?"

Xiao Churan nodded, saying, "We've been married for many years now. It's time for us to move out and live separately."

"No way!" Ma Ran immediately blurted out, "Absolutely not!"

Xiao Churan spoke seriously, "Mom, if you insist on pushing me towards the Xiao family group, then I'll consider moving out with Leaf Chen; but if you don't mention the Xiao family group, then I won't move out. The choice is yours."

Ma Ran stared at Xiao Churan's eyes and knew that her daughter was not joking around. Suddenly she realized that she had gone too far. JrNovels.com
