Bailing was crying while trying to help General Ye up.
General Ye looked up at Bailing's face and said, "I beg you, leave Ju Zisheng. It's for my sake, yours, and Ju Zisheng's as well."
Hearing General Ye say this, Bailing felt weak all over. With a thud, she slumped to the ground.
She didn't know what to do, think, or say. She only knew that maybe her relationship with Ju Zisheng had come to an end.
"I'm begging you, Bailing. I, Ye Shengshi, have never begged anyone in my life. I only hope you can agree to me."
Bailing's eyes were blank, and her tears flowed uncontrollably like a stream. After a long silence, she said that sentence in a daze.
"Okay, I promise you."
At this moment, General Ye lowered his head, and a strange smile flashed across his face, but it disappeared in an instant.
"Okay, General Ye. I promise you. Isn't that okay?" Bailing said while crying.
General Ye showed a relieved smile. He said to Bailing, "Thank you! On behalf of the whole company, thank you!"
Facing General Ye's gratitude, Bailing couldn't say a word. She just stared blankly at him, or perhaps she was just in a daze with empty eyes.
"If Ju Zisheng wants to confess his love to you, you must reject him, okay?"
Hearing this, Bailing's tears couldn't stop anymore. She remembered Ju Zisheng's promise to her in the past. He said that one day he must give her a formal status and propose to her properly. This was what Bailing had been dreaming of. But now, General Ye actually said that she should give it up, give up what she loved the most, what she wanted the most, and the confession she had waited so long for.
She was in a dilemma. She didn't know if it was right or wrong to do so. But General Ye's appearance made her feel a bit reluctant.
"Bailing, you have to promise me. If you don't, I..." General Ye said as he bent down. "If you don't promise, I'll kowtow to you!" Then he started to kowtow to Bailing.
Bailing, a young girl, couldn't bear this. She quickly said, "I promise, General Ye. I promise you everything. But you have to promise me one thing. You have to support Ju Zisheng well and let him make a name for himself one day and become the most shining star in this circle."
"Is that okay?" Bailing asked with a trembling voice. At this time, she couldn't cry anymore. She just looked a bit dazed.
"Don't worry. I will definitely support him well. I will train him to be the most dazzling superstar!" General Ye promised Bailing.
"Okay, General Ye. I hope you won't go back on your word!" Bailing said as she helped General Ye up.
The atmosphere in the room returned to the initial state. The two sat for a while longer and chatted about some random things. Bailing said, "General Ye, if there's nothing else, I'll go out first."
"Yeah. Remember what I told you today. You must do it, and don't tell anyone." General Ye admonished repeatedly.
"Okay." Bailing replied and then went out.
After that, things were just as Ju Zisheng had said.
Hearing this, Meng Nianchu was so angry with General Ye that she gritted her teeth. She didn't expect that he would make Bailing do such a thing. As the saying goes, it's better to tear down ten temples than to break up one marriage. Meng Nianchu cursed in her heart: She wondered what this old man was thinking. He actually wanted to destroy the relationship between Bailing and Ju Zisheng. It's really something he could do!
Seeing Meng Nianchu's emotional fluctuations, Bailing was afraid of disturbing the baby in her belly. She quickly comforted her and said, "Sister, don't be angry anymore. I understand this matter clearly. I've already made up my mind. Although it's very painful, it's for Sheng's future. That's why I made such a decision."
Meng Nianchu calmed down her mood. With tears in her eyes, she looked at Bailing and said, "Sister, you've really suffered a lot!"
Just then, Bailing suddenly received an email. Seeing the change in Bailing's expression, Meng Nianchu knew that this must be an important message. So she asked Bailing to show her the email. Bailing couldn't refuse her, so she told Meng Nianchu the content of the email.
The content of the email was: Bring cash to the old factory in the suburbs at noon tomorrow. See you there.
Seeing the email, Meng Nianchu was shocked. She quickly asked, "Sister, what's going on? Have you... offended someone?"
"Alas, this is the reason why I came to borrow money from you." Bailing sighed and said.
After the breakup that day, someone started to send her secretly taken photos and told her to pay to avoid trouble.
Bailing had no choice but to agree. Who knew that the other party suddenly raised the price from eight million to twelve million. This made Bailing a bit overwhelmed, so she came to borrow money from Meng Nianchu.
"Sister, you..." Meng Nianchu sighed. "You're so stupid! How could you believe such a thing? Oh my god!"
Meng Nianchu was very worried about Bailing. So she continued, "Sister, is it safe for you to go alone? How about I ask some people to accompany you? Mu Junze has a lot of subordinates. If not, I'll ask Tracy to go with you..."
"No need, sister," Bailing interrupted Meng Nianchu's words and forced a smile. "I appreciate your kindness. Thank you so much, sister!"
Seeing Bailing decline like this, Meng Nianchu didn't say anything more. She could only continue to comfort her.
After a while, Meng Nianchu opened her wallet and took out the black card Mu Junze gave her. The credit limit was unlimited.
"I'll transfer five million to you now." Meng Nianchu said as she operated on the mobile banking. Then she called the bank's customer service hotline and got the money transferred through the VIP channel as soon as possible. It didn't take long for the five million to arrive in Bailing's card.
The next thing was for Bailing to change all the twelve million into cash and then drive to deliver it to them.
The two ate for a while longer and chatted for a while. Then they ended tonight's gathering in a hurry.
Early the next morning, Bailing went to the bank to withdraw money. Boxes and boxes of money filled a small truck. Everyone present opened their mouths in surprise. Bailing exchanged all the twelve million and then drove to the old factory in the suburbs.
Zhang Hang and his men had been waiting at the old factory for a long time. When he saw Bailing coming, he quickly greeted his subordinates and ambushed.
And he himself, wearing a mask, received Bailing.
"Yo, Miss Bailing, you've finally come."
"Cut the crap. I've brought the money. Where are the photos? Give me the negatives. Let's call it quits. Don't play any tricks." Bailing said coldly.
Zhang Hang stroked his chin and said, "Well, that's for sure. But..." Actually, Zhang Hang had already decided that after returning the photos to Bailing, he would take the twelve million and successfully complete the plan.
But when he saw Bailing in person, he was irresistibly attracted by her beauty. He didn't expect that Bailing was actually so beautiful!
"But what?" Bailing asked.
Zhang Hang didn't answer. He just grinned obscenely.
