Chapter 242: Chapter 242

"Have you heard a saying?"

The young man glanced at Bai Su’s foot on Ying Man’s neck, then withdrew his gaze, asking leisurely.

Ying Man couldn’t kneel down, so she could only straighten her back and meet those fox-like, ink-black eyes, in a moment of daze, blurting out, "What?"

Rong Zhi curled her lips slowly, her voice indifferent, "Self-inflicted ruin, can’t live."

Each word hit Ying Man’s head and heart, just six characters, yet they felt like heavy hammers weighing a thousand pounds, making her whole body tense and bewildered.

Rong Zhi couldn’t be bothered with her, patted the man’s shoulder, signaling he could leave, and turned away from the courtroom without hesitation.

Bai Su lowered his foot, glanced down disdainfully, muttering, "Dirty."

No problem, just the right time to buy a new pair, matching ones with Ziazie.

Struck dumbfounded by the youth and ridiculed by Bai Su, Ying Man couldn’t take the humiliation anymore, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.

The police officers hurriedly approached to drag her away, and it was only then that Rong Xian’an, who had been silent, stood up, his impatience suppressed as he took Ying Man from the officers.

The Beijing People’s Court was instructed to release the trial result of Rong Qichuo’s case in real-time, causing a stir among netizens when they saw the verdict against Rong Qichuo.

First, she seized the Rong Family from her grandfather and father, then sent her own brother to prison; who in the entire Hua Country could do such a thing?

But Rong Zhi just did it.

And at this point, no one dared to say a word against her.

After all, it was the Rong Family that first slandered and framed her; it was Rong Qichuo who first set her up. She’s the victim. No matter from what angle you discuss, everything she did was right; people just couldn’t accept it.

Blood relatives, anyone would have to think carefully.

That noon, RH Group, newly renamed, released the latest update, announcing its cooperation with the Jin Family, officially launching the related project on "Future Nutrition Capsule."

Simultaneously, Shen Group’s president Shen Junze shared it on his personal account immediately and added congratulations.

This change in situation shocked enterprises big and small in Beijing, causing them to energetically check updates on Weibo.

Shen Junze’s sharing made use of a teasing tone, calling Rong Zhi ’Third Young Master,’ followed by congratulations, but the relationship between them was clearly evident in that ’Third Young Master.’

The friendship between the Shen Family and Rong Zhi was a settled fact.

Ying Fan’s face was dark, raising his hand, grabbing a document on the table, and tossing it forward.

The secretary and assistant stood on either side, both got hit, the secretary suffered the most as the hardest part of the file brushed past the face, splitting it open.

Though gasping from the pain, didn’t dare make a sound.

Ying Fan didn’t know who he was scolding, muttering ’useless’ a few times, only catching his breath after a while and leaning back, glaring at the two in front, speaking deeply, "What are you standing there for? Waiting for me to feed you?"

The secretary quickly said no, and with the assistant, bent down to pick up the scattered documents on the ground, then cautiously bade farewell and left.

Ying Fan pressed his knuckles till they cracked.

What’s up with that useless kid from the Shen Family.

At such a crucial moment, to connect with Rong Zhi?!

He nearly snapped his fingers. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by NoveI(F)ire.net

Unable to let decades of effort be destroyed now.

Gradually calming down, Ying Fan frowned, pondering for a long time, reaching for the phone on the table to find a cross-country number, he hesitated before dialing.

But remembering that years of achievements might soon vanish, he clenched his teeth, decisively dialing that number.

The ringing lasted for over ten seconds before someone picked up.

The sound of waves hitting the beach gently, a voice from a man, wicked and casual, piercingly spoke, "Old Man Ying, disturbing dreams late at night, you’d better give me a reasonable explanation."

Ying Fan pursed his lips.

The deafening music almost drowned out the sound of waves, and you say you’re asleep?

His hand clenched on the chair, maintaining his calm, he said, "Young Master Yu, I have something I’d like you to help with..."

Rong Zhi shook hands with the project leader of the Jin Family, Zhu Yuanwu.

The other’s sharp face showed a smile, "Chairman Rong, happy cooperation."

Rong Zhi lightly curled her lips, "Happy cooperation."

Zhu Yuanwu had other things to attend to, politely declined Rong Jin’s invitation for a meal, and agreed on the next meeting time before leaving RH Group.

After signing the contract, Rong Zhi had two days of rest coming up, planning to accompany Rong Jiazze out the next morning, first taking a trip to the Engineering College tonight.

Before leaving work, she received Rong Jin’s WeChat.

Rong Jin: [Third Nephew, I heard from your Second Aunt that Rong Yun was taken away by people from the Securities Regulatory Commission.]

Rong Yun had already been expelled from the company the day before, originally having sent resumes to other companies.

Considering his years of work experience at Rong Family, passing interviews should’ve been easy. But unexpectedly, at several companies hearing his name, they outrightly refused to hire him.

Just this noon, Rong Yun went to another company for an interview, but before he could even warm his seat, people from the Securities Regulatory Commission arrived with police to take him away.

Rong Yun’s wife had no recourse, and Rong Xian’an couldn’t probe for information, so she could only try asking Rong Jin for insight.

Rong Jin didn’t have much affection for Rong Yun but didn’t want it to affect family. Out of familial bond, he decided to ask Rong Zhi about the matter.

After sending the message on WeChat, Rong Jin waited a few seconds before receiving a reply.

Third Nephew: [Financial discrepancies should be investigated. Don’t worry, let the authorities handle it.]

Upon seeing this, Rong Jin felt puzzled, recalling after a moment.

Back when Rong Family encountered trouble, one issue was discrepancies in the Rong Family Finance Department’s reported accounts, considered severe violations. If investigated thoroughly, the whole Rong Family would suffer.

Otherwise, outsiders wouldn’t have claimed Rong Family was failing.

But Rong Yun had clearly covered the missing accounts, nearly emptying his own family funds...

Rong Jin shivered, feeling the shock inside.

Slowly coming to, he held his phone in silence for a long while.

The Securities Regulatory Commission’s call soon reached Rong Zhi’s office. She waved Bai Tingxun out, picked up her coat and while walking said, "Follow the rules, just handle it."

The opposite side was very respectful and responded quickly, "Alright, then I’ll trouble Miss Rong San."

Rong Zhi answered lightly.

Closing the office door, she walked to Bai Tingxun’s workspace where she was just finishing packing, holding a stack of materials. She smiled cheerfully, following behind the young man, pulling out her phone to search for places.

"Third Young Master, what would you like to eat? Hot pot? Spicy soup? Or skewers?" she asked Rong Zhi.

As a reward for promotion and a raise, Miss Bai Tingxun decided to take her beloved boss out for a celebratory meal.

While inviting, she had anticipated rejection, but to her surprise, Rong Zhi hesitated only a few seconds before accepting, only requesting to bring a few more people.

Inviting one is inviting, inviting two is also inviting, Bai Tingxun had no objections.

"Anything," Rong Zhi turned to WeChat to message Bai Su, asking him to bring Jiang Gujun along, and after thinking added, "Hot pot."

Having eaten bland food for so long, it’s time to improve the diet a bit today.
