Chapter 94: Chapter 94: No Plan is Foolproof

"Bingbing, are you okay?"

In the evening, as Xia Yanbing just got home, Lin Hongzhuang hurried over with a concerned look and asked.

Xia Yanbing was slightly stunned and asked in surprise, "What happened to me?"

"I know everything that happened at the construction site today," Lin Hongzhuang said.

"How did you know?" Xia Yanbing was shocked.

"I went to your company this afternoon. They said there was an incident at the construction site. I went to the site to find you and heard from the people there. I couldn’t reach you on the phone, it really worried me to death."

Xia Yanbing took out her phone and found that it had shut down without her noticing because the battery had died.

She had received a call close to the end of work and went to the police station, probably around the time her phone died, which is why it hadn’t rung all the way home.

"Sister-in-law, are you okay?" Qin Wan’er asked with concern.

Xia Yanbing glared at Lin Hongzhuang, calling her a blabbermouth.

"Don’t worry, I’m fine!"

"I told you long ago not to get involved in all that mess, but you wouldn’t listen. Now you’ve caused trouble, haven’t you?" Xia Yujiang said with a gloomy face.

Xia Yanbing kept silent; Xia Yujiang hadn’t come home for days, yet when something went wrong, instead of being concerned for her wellbeing, his first words were a scolding, making her feel very upset.

"Exactly, I’ve said it before, just sign that stock transfer contract, it would have been great to get that 45% of the shares for free. Why go through the hassle of buying land to build a real estate? So foolish," Dong Jinsu complained.

Xia Yanbing calmly said, "Buying land to build a real estate was the decision of the company’s board."

"If you had just signed, the shares would be yours, and the Xia Group would still belong to our Xia Family. Why look at others’ moods and work for others?" Dong Jinsu said with a stern face.

"The stock transfer contract has already been torn up. I will definitely buy back that 45% of the shares."

"Buy them back? How much money will that take? Wouldn’t it be better to keep the money?" Dong Jinsu said angrily.

Xia Yanbing sighed slightly. Unwilling to argue further, she went straight upstairs.

"Getting more and more out of hand, missing out on a good deal. How did I give birth to such a foolish daughter?" Dong Jinsu said angrily.

Qin Yi gave Qin Wan’er a look, and Qin Wan’er understood immediately. The two slipped back to their room, as countless experiences had taught them that if they didn’t leave now, the argument would surely target them next.

"Brother, tomorrow is Saturday. Will you come with me to visit Brother Dong’s home? Xiaorui keeps talking about you."

Qin Yi nodded slightly.

"Brother, I feel like something’s different about you?"

Qin Yi felt a slight shock in his heart, laughed, and said, "What’s different?"

"I don’t know, just a feeling that you’re not quite like before."

Qin Yi laughed and said, "Maybe it’s because Miss Lan said there’s a chance my leg can be healed, and I feel hopeful now."

"If brother’s leg can be healed, that would be wonderful. Can I meet Miss Lan? I want to thank her."

"Yes, I can arrange a meeting for you another day."

"By the way, how’s your piano learning going lately?"

Qin Wan’er puffed her cheeks, "Even though Sister Yutong says I have talent, I know piano requires skills learned from childhood. Starting now is a bit late, but I’ll work hard."

"Just try your best, don’t push yourself too hard. The main focus should still be on your studies. Is anyone bullying you at school these days?"

"No, Sister Yutong often drives to pick me up from school, so everyone knows I have a great sister. No one dares to bully me," Qin Wan’er said happily.

"That’s good. Do you have enough pocket money?"

"Yes, I haven’t spent the money you gave me last time yet."

"If you need money, just tell me."

"Okay!" Qin Wan’er smiled and nodded, but she knew her brother didn’t have money either, so she had to save her money to buy medicine for her brother.

.....

The next day, Qin Yi went to the Dong Family with Qin Wan’er.

"Big brother, Xiaorui missed you so much. You never visit Xiaorui. Is it because you don’t like Xiaorui anymore?"

Upon seeing Qin Yi, Xiaorui clambered onto his lap, chattering incessantly in a childish voice.

"You little clever thing, you just want big brother to take you flying, don’t you?" Qin Yi teased, pinching her chubby little cheeks.

Xiaorui nodded her little head; she had been eagerly waiting for Qin Yi to come and take her flying every day.

Yan Yutong cleverly took Qin Wan’er to a piano lesson.

Qin Yi then took Xiaorui to a secluded spot and used his powers to make her fly around in circles.

Approaching noon, Liu Zhanyuan called suddenly.

"Mr. Qin, it’s not good, something big happened."

Qin Yi frowned slightly and asked, "What happened?"

"Xia Yujiang ran off with the 210 million you invested in the Xia Group."

"What?" Qin Yi was shocked. "How could this happen? What exactly is going on?"

"Mr. Qin, it’s all my fault. It’s all my fault..."

Qin Yi frowned and said, "Explain what happened first."

"I arranged for someone to create a chance encounter between him and Xia Yujiang. They took him into stock trading. At first, Xia Yujiang made quite a lot, so he started to believe and invested more. Xia Yujiang borrowed high-interest loans to invest, and we indeed tricked him out of more than 100 million."

"Just as we were about to have him repay the debt with equity, I didn’t expect him to suddenly pull out over a billion. I just learned from Shen Zhengwen’s call earlier that he took the 210 million you invested in the Xia Group."

With a frown on his face, Qin Yi pondered. The 210 million he gave to Liu Zhanyuan was handed over to Xia Yanbing through Shen Zhengwen.

It must have been deposited into the company account by Xia Yanbing, which Xia Yujiang directly siphoned off.

Hearing Qin Yi’s long silence, Liu Zhanyuan nervously said, "Mr. Qin, it’s all my fault. I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. Please give me another chance, I’ll figure out a solution..."

"It’s not your fault!" Qin Yi sighed.

No matter how thorough, there’s always a slip-up. They couldn’t foresee Xia Yujiang being so shameless as to take all the company’s money.

Xiaobing, this time the mistake was yours. You trusted your father too much. He’s a shareholder of the company, and there are countless ways he could access the company funds. You had no precaution whatsoever?

"It’s okay. Have Shen Zhengwen press Xia Yujiang to pay back the money. If he doesn’t, let him go to prison, or use his shares to repay the debt. Figure out a way to secure the shares in hand first," Qin Yi said in a stern voice.

Liu Zhanyuan cautiously said, "Mr. Qin, if we do that, it will be very hard on President Xia."

"I’m not really having you push Xia Yujiang to the edge; just have Shen Zhengwen put on a good show for me. Xia Yujiang’s shares are worth only about a hundred million. Find a way for him to repay the debt with equity and write an IOU for the remaining amount."

"Yes, rest assured, Mr. Qin, I’ll get on it right away."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Yi rubbed his temples. Xia Yanbing, you have many good qualities, but you still haven’t seen through what kind of people your family truly are?

The Xia Family are all money-grubbing jackals. If Xia Yanbing doesn’t see it clearly this time, she’s likely to suffer grievances in the future.
