The Stepmother’s Counterattack: Raising a Child in a Bygone Era

With the cooperation project with Longchang interrupted, the company gradually lost several more partnerships, and suppliers swarmed to settle accounts. If this continued, the company wasn’t far from bankruptcy.

After making inquiries on all sides, he finally found out that Longchang’s termination of their partnership was actually orchestrated by Mrs. Yan.

This news excited Ren Yan, "President Zhao, President Shen is on good terms with Mrs. Yan. Should we ask President Shen to speak to Mrs. Yan on our behalf?"

Seeing Zhao Dafa deep in thought and not speaking, Ren Yan added, "If it’s inconvenient for you to come forward, you could ask your wife to speak to her. After so many years of sisterhood with President Shen, it wouldn’t make sense not to help out with this small favor."

Zhao Dafa looked at his secretary and asked a soul-searching question, "We haven’t offended Mrs. Yan. Why would she want to cut us off?"

Ren Yan was stunned.

Indeed, why would someone like Mrs. Yan, a lady from a prominent family, have any reason to pick a fight with their small enterprise for no reason?

Ren Yan’s mind raced and suddenly he thought of a possibility, "President Zhao, could it have something to do with your wife?"

Zhao Dafa didn’t reply because he too was uncertain, but he couldn’t help suspicion creeping in that direction.
