Chapter 16: Apologies

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Ning Shi instantly panicked.

If his cooperation with the Fu family was terminated, he would not be far from bankruptcy.

Fu Ze unexpectedly liked Ning Xiang so much.

He liked her so much that he was willing to lose tens of billions for her.

Although tens of billions were nothing to the Fu family, it was still money. How could someone throw it away just like that?

In the past, Ning Shi looked down on Ning Xiang and thought that she was worthless. Now, it seemed that he had to treat her differently.

Ning Shi knew that Ning Xiang had always yearned for kinship. After she came from the countryside, she was relatively distant, but she was still quite obedient most of the time. She was probably still the same now.

It was just a trick to get her family to pay attention to her.

Otherwise, why else would Ning Xiang keep making trouble for the Ning family and not others?

Ning Shi believed that as long as he treated Ning Xiang a little better, Ning Xiang would definitely be grateful and throw herself at him again.

Since that was the case…

Ning Shi raised his eyes and glanced at Ning Xiang. His thoughts turned a few times. He suppressed his anger and shock and forced a smile.

“Xiangxiang, there might be a misunderstanding in this matter. It’s my fault for criticizing you before I got to know the full picture. I apologize.”

As Ning Shi spoke, he observed Ning Xiang’s expression.

However, he had a bad feeling because Ning Xiang didn’t show any change in expression even after he humbled himself.

Ning Xiang lifted a strand of hair and twirled it around her fingertip. She said indifferently, “Your apology is meaningless to me. They’re just empty words without actual action. How can I believe that you really want to apologize?”

She looked at Ning Shi with a clear gaze. “It’s better to do more than just talk. You’re not getting any younger. Do you still need me to teach you how to do it?”

Ning Shi felt humiliated.

That fortune-teller was right. Ning Xiang was the jinx of the Ning family.

For the sake of his career, Ning Shi could only lower his head at this moment and say ingratiatingly, “What you said makes sense. How about this?” He looked at Fu Ze. “President Fu, if you take back what you said and continue with the partnership, I’m willing to give up three percent to the Fu family’s project.”

Three points meant a profit of about 30 billion.

Before today, Ning Shi was still trying to pull strings to get some information from Fu Ze.

It was already a huge concession for Ning Shi to give up this profit.

Looking at the resentment in Ning Shi’s eyes, Ning Xiang chuckled. “That’s all? I don’t think you’re sincere enough.”

Ning Shi had trouble suppressing his anger, but he gritted his teeth and said, “Ning Xiang, I advise you not to go too far!”

Ning Xiang added, “How about five percent then?”

“Five points is equivalent to 50 billion. Why don’t you go rob someone!” Ning Lian shouted in disbelief.

Ning Xiang was unmoved. She looked at Ning Shi with pity and contempt. “No way. You can’t even bear to part with 50 billion? I had no idea how cheap you are.” After a pause, she said meaningfully, “The projects you cooperated with my husband earned more than 50 billion. Think about it carefully.”

This was already a clear threat, but Ning Shi knew that what Ning Xiang said was the truth.

Ning Zhuo grabbed Ning Shi’s arm unhappily. “Dad, let’s go. I doubt that without the Fu family’s cooperation, the Ning family will really be finished!”

Ning Shi also wanted to leave. He had never suffered such humiliation in his life, but Ning Shi could not afford to anger Fu Ze.

He slowly brushed Ning Zhuo’s hand off his arm. Ning Shi stared at Ning Xiang and said word by word, “Okay, I agree.”

Ning Zhuo was shocked. “Dad, you’ve gone senile!”

Ning Shi happened to have nowhere to vent his anger, so he fiercely vented his anger on Ning Zhuo and knocked his head hard.

“Little bastard, you still have the cheek to say that! Isn’t this all because of you?!” Under Ning Zhuo’s aggrieved gaze, Ning Shi pointed at Fu Ze. “Apologize to President Fu this instant!”

Fu Ze smiled faintly. “There’s no need. The Second Young Master of the Ning family has nothing to do with me. The person he apologized to should be my wife.” He paused and reluctantly gave Ning Lian a look. “Miss Ning, don’t you think so?”

Ning Shi understood what Fu Ze meant.

Ning Zhuo’s apology was far from enough. He actually wanted Ning Lian to apologize to this b*tch!

With tears in her eyes, Ning Lian looked at Ning Shi reluctantly and pitifully.

Ning Shi avoided her gaze and said with a pale face, “Then just as President Fu said, Ning Lian and Ning Zhuo, apologize to Ning Xiang.”

Ning Zhuo wanted to say something more, but he was stopped by Ning Shi’s intent gaze.

The two of them apologized reluctantly. Ning Shi sighed and suppressed his resentment towards Ning Xiang before putting on a kind face and said, “Is this enough?”
