That day, she dressed lightly and brought a bowl of dessert to find Mei Shouren. Zhu told me she was at the secretary's office door, sweetly saying, "Ren, do you remember the times we struggled together back then?" I smiled. It seemed that Zhou Mingming wanted to play the emotional card.
At that moment, my phone vibrated. It was a text from Mom. "We have obtained evidence of Mei Shouren's insider trading. What are you planning to do?"
"What about that matter?" I replied firmly, "I want to seek justice for those innocent shareholders."
"Alright, I'll go to the company with your Second Aunt and Third Aunt to pick you up."
The assistant followed me out of the office and asked, "What are we going to do?"
I smiled slightly, "Hunting."
"Hunting what?"
"Hunting wolves."
Nie Corporation.
Mom arrived at the company with Second Aunt and Third Aunt. Third Aunt looked at the desolate company and exclaimed, "It was thriving just a few years ago; how did it suddenly become like this?"
Second Aunt pointed at the antique calligraphy and paintings in Mei Shouren's office and sneered, "Look at those; each one is worth a fortune. Where did the money come from?"
I followed Second Aunt's finger and looked over. Indeed, those items in Mei Shouren's office were not something the Mei Family possessed. I casually picked up an Azure Jade-Handled Double-Handled Vase; its color was rich and texture delicate.
Second Aunt asked me, "Do you remember where this came from?"
I replied solemnly, "Of course I remember. That year, Mei Shouren was involved in a merger and acquisition case, and after it succeeded, someone sent this treasure as a gift."
Mom patted my shoulder and said softly, "We have contacted all the shareholders, and we will definitely seek justice for those innocent shareholders."
Third Aunt finally understood, exclaiming, "Oh, so you are going to..."
Second Aunt quickly covered her mouth and warned, "Keep your voice down."
Zhou Mingming continued to disturb Mei Shouren at the office every day, regardless of how he scolded her. Eventually, Mei Shouren could no longer tolerate it. In front of everyone, he loudly reprimanded, "Sister-in-law has been widowed for many years; she shouldn't frequently visit an adult brother-in-law's office."
Zhou Mingming turned pale and fainted on the spot. After examining her, the doctor shook his head repeatedly and said, "Madam, you have suffered multiple miscarriages which have severely depleted your health; you have developed anemia."
"I'm afraid you can only live for three more months."
I was furious and slapped Mei Shouren, saying, "How can you speak to Sister-in-law like that?"
Mei Shouren's face turned ashen; after a moment of silence, he quietly said, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry."
I urged my mother-in-law to enforce family rules: "Mom, you have always valued family regulations. Now is a crucial time for the company; if the household is not peaceful, it will affect Shouren's career."
My mother-in-law looked extremely displeased and stammered without saying a word.
Mei Shouren suddenly knelt down and said, "Mom, it's all my fault; please punish me."
I handed the ruler to my mother-in-law and watched Zhou Mingming's complex expression, nearly laughing out loud.
Holding the ruler, my mother-in-law hesitated to hit her son but couldn't bear to see Zhou Mingming suffer.
I coldly stated, "Mom, family rules cannot be disregarded."
With gritted teeth, my mother-in-law struck once.
Zhou Mingming's eyes were filled with tears, both heartbroken and conflicted. Meanwhile, I sat nearby enjoying the snacks Zhu had prepared for me, thoroughly entertained by the scene.
The next day, Zhou Mingming was sent by Mei Shouren to a villa in the suburbs for recuperation. On the way back, her car suddenly lost control and plunged off a cliff, resulting in her death.
Zhu remarked, "Madam, she got what she deserved."
I looked at Mei Shouren's expressionless face, my body trembling involuntarily. He is truly ruthless.
