“It’s impossible for me. But, it’s possible for you! Your family, the Ji…” Liu Menghan knew that she had misspoken and looked to the side. Ji Liunian only smiled. “If our family doesn’t survive this time, I’m afraid…”

Exactly… The company was in jeopardy, and her mother was lying in the hospital. If her father failed—or if she gave up the marriage to the Yu family—she would lose everything. The Ji family would also owe a huge debt and it would be difficult for them to make a comeback!

“How’s Aunt An?”

“Still the same.” Although she survived the car accident, she had been in a coma since then.

“Don’t worry too much.” Liu Menghan did not know what to say. Suddenly, she realized the reason Ji Liunian did not complain when the Yu family treated her like this. However, seeing her in her prime and wasting it in the hands of someone like Yu Yichen, she felt that it was a tremendous loss.

“Well, actually, I’ve thought about it a long time ago. If Dad can get through this difficult time, our family will have a chance to turn things around. We don’t have to rely on the Yu family anymore. After a while, I’ll ask Yu Yichen for a divorce.” She was probably the only one who would think about divorce before getting married. She even sighed. “Actually, it’s good that Yu Yichen treats me this way. At least…”

At least, it would not be too painful.

The two of them did not talk for long before they walked into the office. The senior management accompanied Ling Yichuan on his “inspection” of the company. When they were done, they proceeded to the conference room. The moment Ling Yichuan sat down, the CEO nodded and bowed. “Mr. Ling, do you think…”

“To know how well a company operates, the first thing is to look at the finances.” Ling Yichuan’s voice was calm. “Where’s the finance department? I have questions.”

The CEO’s forehead was covered in sweat. He knew that Ling Yichuan was not here for a sightseeing trip. It turned out that he was here to review the books! Now, he had no choice but to comply. He immediately summoned Wang Shibo from the finance department. In order to make Mr. Ling happy, he even summoned the assistant manager—Gao Youyi—as well.

Gao Youyi sashayed to Ling Yichuan, clad in a dress and high heels. Wang Shibo was not stupid; he knew Ling Yichuan’s preferences. He deliberately let Gao Youyi stand in front of him. Her voice was so cloying that it was unbearable. “Mr. Ling…”

Ling Yichuan did not even raise his head. He flipped through the report with one hand and tapped the table with the other leisurely. When he heard her voice, he remained unaffected as his fingers maintained the rhythm. He only said, “Tell me about your company’s recent involvement in the bridge construction project.”

Gao Youyi’s smile immediately froze on her face. Although she was usually eloquent, her eloquence was only in knowing how to brown-nose and please the senior management. She had long stopped following up on such trivial projects.

“What? You don’t know? If you can’t even do such a small thing, why are you working here?! Get whoever is the one following up on the project here now!”

That person was none other than Ji Liunian!
