Deeply in Love: The Two-Faced CEO is Too Clingy

Chapter 391 Unable to Bear the Loss

Chapter 391 Unable to Bear the Stigma

Xue Ruowei shook her head: "I don't know either."

“We definitely have to go back, but,” Zhang Qi’er stood up from the stroller, looking indignant, “but we can’t just go back as soon as they ask. We have to give them a cold shoulder and make them come back a few more times and beg a few more times before they reluctantly go back with us.”

When Zhou Xinyu entered the office, he saw his parents sitting on the sofa with worried expressions, waiting for him.

"Xinyu, you're finally back." When Zhou's mother saw him, she quickly stood up from the sofa, rushed over and grabbed his hand.

"Hmm," Zhou Xinyu replied casually. "What did you find out?"

Still sitting on the sofa, Mr. Zhou sighed deeply: "We've found out."

"Who did it?" Zhou Xinyu asked, knowing the answer already.

Mr. Zhou glared at Mrs. Zhou and said angrily, "Ask your mother."

"Mom, is this any of your business?"

"This..." Zhou's mother hesitated to speak, "This incident at the company was orchestrated by Young Master Ye, probably to vent Ruowei's anger."

"Ah Ye did this?" Zhou Xinyu feigned shock. "Could there be a mistake? Ah Ye and I have been friends for many years, as close as brothers. Even if Ruowei suffered some grievances in our family, he wouldn't treat us like this."

"It's been investigated and confirmed that it was indeed the work of Xingye Group." She never expected that Yan Ye would actually target them. The reason she dared to look down on Xue Ruowei back then was because she thought he would give Xin Yu's sake and not touch the Zhou family. She really didn't expect this.

Zhou's mother deeply regretted her actions. If she had known that Xue Ruowei held such a high place in Yan Ye's heart, she would have cherished Xue Ruowei and never dared to look down on her or give her the cold shoulder.

"Xinyu, it's all Mom's fault. Mom was confused. I'm sorry to you, sorry to Ruowei, sorry to our Zhou family. The Zhou Group finally gained a foothold in S City... Waaah, it's all my fault."

Zhou's mother was filled with self-reproach and wanted to raise her hand to slap herself, but Zhou Xinyu stopped her: "Mom, don't do this. I'll go and have a good talk with A-Ye. Considering our many years of friendship, I think he will stop and let us go."

Zhou's mother had been waiting for these words. Holding his hand tightly, she said with tears in her eyes, "Xinyu, whether our Zhou Group can survive depends entirely on you. Tell Young Master Ye that I know I was wrong and that I will never dare to look down on Ruowei again. You must beg him to spare our lives."

Although the Zhou Group has some strength, it is far inferior to the financially powerful Xingye Group.

If Xingye Group were to stomp its foot, the international financial system would be thrown into turmoil. If Yan Ye refuses to back down, it is estimated that within two days, their Zhou Group will disappear from this city forever.

Zhou Xinyu patted his mother's hand and comforted her, "Mom, don't worry, I will do my best. I'll go to Xingye Pavilion to find Aye right now."

After finishing his sentence, Zhou Xinyu turned and left the office.

The stock price of Zhou's Group continued to fall, and Zhou's parents were extremely anxious. They dared not call Zhou Xinyu to ask him anything. They were so worried that they lost their appetite and skipped lunch, staring intently at the stock price on their computer screen in their office.

Two hours later, Zhou Xinyu called to tell them that Yan Ye was very angry, and no matter how much he begged, it was no use. Yan Ye even said he would break off all ties with him.

"What can we do?" Upon hearing this, Zhou's mother slumped into a chair, feeling as if all her strength had been drained away, utterly desperate.

"It's all your fault. If you had been nicer to Ruowei and hadn't conspired with Lu Zhilei to frame Xinyu, would Ruowei have run back to Xingye Pavilion and refused to come back? If it weren't for that, Young Master Ye wouldn't have touched our Zhou Group at all." Zhou's father roared angrily at Zhou's mother.

“I already know I was wrong…” Zhou’s mother burst into tears.

"Get up." Mr. Zhou suddenly pulled his sobbing mother up from her chair.

"What are you doing?" Zhou's mother asked, her eyes filled with tears.

"What do you want me to do? Of course, I want to go to Xingye Pavilion to apologize and beg Ruowei for forgiveness."

Begging for forgiveness?

"What? You can't bear to lose face? Let me tell you, if the Zhou Group goes under like this, I'll never forgive you."

"Will begging Ruowei for forgiveness save the Zhou Group?"

Mr. Zhou said irritably, "I don't know, but this is the only way."

The two rushed to the Starry Night Pavilion, but were turned away at the door. No matter what they said, the guards at the door would not allow them to enter.

"Xinyu should still be inside. Let's call Xinyu."

As Zhou's mother was about to dial Zhou Xinyu's number, Zhou's father said, "If you're going to call, call Ruowei. Young Master Ye has already said he's breaking off all ties with Xinyu. Maybe Xinyu has already been kicked out. What's the point of calling him?"

Zhou's mother was conflicted.

Xue Ruowei was forced to leave by her. She was really reluctant to beg her, and she was also afraid of being harassed by her.

"What? You really can't bear to lose face?" Mr. Zhou was so angry he wanted to pinch her. "Is your face more important, or is our Zhou Group more important?"

Zhou's mother handed the phone to Zhou's father: "Honey, I'm worried about Ruowei. Why don't you ask her for help?"

"..." Zhou's father was furious and slapped Zhou's mother.

Caught off guard, Zhou's mother was knocked to the side, her face burning.

Covering her swollen and red face, she stared in astonishment at the man before her, choking back tears as she said, "You hit me, you actually hit me..."

"If you hadn't been so reckless, would this have happened? It's come to this point, and you still aren't trying to salvage it. What are you thinking? I'm asking you, the Zhou Group is almost finished, what are you still thinking about? How long do you intend to keep acting recklessly?"

After finishing speaking, Mr. Zhou raised his hand to hit Mrs. Zhou again, but Mrs. Zhou hurriedly raised her arm to cover her face: "I'll hit you, I'll call Ruowei right now."

When Zhou's father heard her say that, he glared at her, snorted coldly, and then lowered his hand.

Zhou's mother started calling Xue Ruowei, but Xue Ruowei didn't answer. After calling five or six times, Xue Ruowei finally answered.

"Ruowei, you should have let them worry a little longer." Zhang Qier was very dissatisfied that Xue Ruowei agreed to let Zhou's parents in so quickly.

Xue Ruowei sighed softly: "After all, they are Xinyu's parents and Xiaoyan's grandparents. Even if they are not good to me, I cannot be too disrespectful to them."

Zhang Qier rolled her eyes: "Ruowei, you're like a completely different person. Yesterday you were yelling about getting a divorce and refused to go back. Do you know how much I admired you back then? How come you've given in the blink of an eye?"

"..." Xue Ruowei didn't know how to answer her. When she woke up this morning, she was still determined not to go back. Even when Yue Yirou asked her if she was willing to go back, she still felt that she would not go back with them. But after seeing the phone call from Zhou's mother, her heart began to waver.

"That's because Ruowei loves Xinyu and wants to give Xiaoyan a complete family," Yue Yirou answered for Xue Ruowei.
