Ten Goddesses Insist to Marry Me

Wang Qin saw Xu Chuan's anxious expression and hurriedly asked, "What happened?"

"It's about the Ministry of Commerce. They've stopped approving many of our items. If we can't deliver on time, we can't afford the penalty for breach of contract."

Xu Chuan opened the contacts on his phone, found a number for Jiang City's Ministry of Commerce, and immediately dialed it.

He turned on speakerphone, placed the phone on the desk, and continued to use the computer's chat tool to inquire with the company's key managers.

To see what exactly had happened.

"Hello."

A middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the line.

"Mr. Liu, this is Xu Chuan." Xu Chuan quickly picked up the phone and said with a smile, "I heard that your ministry has suddenly stopped approvals, and I wanted to ask what happened?"

"Stopped approvals? Who told you that? Our approval process is still ongoing, but we have to carefully review the documents due to inspections from above, so it's just slow."

Mr. Liu across the line explained calmly, "I'm busy, so I need to hang up now."

With that said, the caller hung up.

"This..."

Xu Chuan then called his assistant, "I just asked, they said there's an inspection from above, and the process is slow."

"Director Xu! That's not the case. I've just learned that only our group's approvals are very slow. All the other companies are operating normally."

The assistant continued, "Not only that, I've just received news that the documents that had been approved for us have all been taken back, saying they need to be investigated again."

Xu Chuan and Wang Qin looked at each other, clearly targeted at their company.

What the hell happened?

Xu Chuan hung up the phone with a gloomy face. If the Ministry of Commerce was sabotaging them, that blow would be much bigger than the one from the Song Family.

Facing the commercial threat from the Song Family, they at least had some room to fight back, or they could cling to other families for support.

Thinking of other families, Xu Chuan immediately focused on the contract in front of him.

Zhou Family!

Now, anyway, the Xu Family and the Zhou Family were business partners, so having them step in definitely could.

Xu Chuan found the reserved number on the document and dialed it immediately.

"Hello, you've reached me."

A middle-aged man's voice came through.

"Mr. Wang? This is Xu Chuan. I just signed a contract with you for three hundred million..."

"Stop!"

Wang Hai interrupted Xu Chuan, "Mr. Xu, I am very particular about wording. Please mind how you phrase things. The contract was signed with Miss Xu Ruoying."

"But Xu Ruoying is my daughter," said Xu Chuan, his face turning somewhat pale.

"But you are not Xu Ruoying. The contract clearly states that my contracting party is Miss Xu Ruoying individually. For any matters concerning the contract, please have her contact me."

Wang Hai took the initiative to hang up after finishing his piece.

Xu Chuan and Wang Qin were both stunned.

Meaning, without Xu Ruoying, the three hundred million contract is just a pile of scrap paper.

"Husband... could it be, could it be that someone from the Zhou Family got angry and pressured the Ministry of Commerce?"

Wang Qin's face also looked abnormal.

"No! Zhou Tian may be powerful, but he definitely can't influence the Ministry of Commerce, or else their group's financial resources would have long been the first in Jiang City."

Xu Chuan was getting agitated, grabbing his hair and pacing back and forth.

"What do we do now? If the funds can't flow and we can't pay employee salaries, we'll end up going bankrupt."

Wang Qin was shivering with fright; she couldn't stand a life of poverty.

"Get someone to find Xiao Ying immediately!" Xu Chuan said sternly.

...

Feng Lin and Lan He chatted for a bit more and then prepared to leave.

Lan Rou hurried out from a distant villa to serve as Feng Lin's driver.

Driving Feng Lin was secondary, she mainly wanted to play with Niu Niu.

Speaking of which, Xu Ruoying's personality has always been very stubborn since she was little, not even begging for mercy when pinned to the ground and beaten.

Having gone to school together for so long, and even living in the same villa complex.

This was the first time, she saw her buckle under pressure.

Lan Rou rather enjoyed this feeling.

Feng Lin sat in the passenger seat again, propping his chin with one hand, originally intending to ask why Lan Rou wanted to join the Secret Corps.

Thinking it over, I decided to let it be, as I had only known Lan Rou for a day.

Asking such personal questions now didn't seem appropriate.

"Feng Lin, what did you and grandpa talk about? It's been a long time since I've seen grandpa so happy," Lan Rou asked with a smile.

"Just some trivial family matters. My old man is a good friend of your grandpa," Feng Lin replied.

He didn't tell her the whole truth; if they really decided to get married in the future, he could tell her then.

Having returned to the front of their home, Feng Lin got out of the car first and invited Lan Rou, "Why not come in for a chat?"

"I... I'm afraid of angering Xu Ruoying," she said, her head bowed and looking aggrieved.

"Get out! What's there to fear? If she dare curse at you again, I'll take care of her!"

Feng Lin took the initiative to open the car door.

"Okay."

Lan Rou nodded her head and got out of the car following him.

They returned to their room and saw that Tang Hong from across the hall hadn't come back yet.

Feng Lin entered the room first and found Xu Ruoying watching TV.

Upon seeing Feng Lin bringing Lan Rou back with him,

Xu Ruoying stood up, fuming. Her original plan was to take advantage of Feng Lin's absence to have Zhou Ziying bring their marriage certificate over.

But remembering how the Xu family must have all been watching Zhou Ziying, she gave up on that idea.

"Sit down," Feng Lin said, turning back and smiling at Lan Rou.

Lan Rou, with her hands in front of her, stood demurely in front of Xu Ruoying, "If there's been any misunderstanding between us in the past, I apologize."

While speaking, she didn't forget to wink at Xu Ruoying, flashing a mocking smile.

"You… playing the fool, huh!" Xu Ruoying cursed fiercely.

"Xu Ruoying! Do you think I won't teach you a lesson?" Feng Lin stepped forward and pointed at Xu Ruoying.

"What? You dare to hit me? Come on! Hit me in the face!"

Xu Ruoying stuck her face forward, pointing at her cheek and challenging him.

Slap!

Feng Lin dealt a slap.

Xu Ruoying's face immediately flushed red, she covered her buttocks, full of shame and rage, "You... you dare..."

"Nice elasticity, huh?" Feng Lin remarked with a smile.

"You! Stinking Feng Lin, I'm going to fight you!"

Xu Ruoying pounced on him angrily, crashing into Feng Lin and pinning him to the sofa.

"What are you doing? Stop messing around, let go!"

Lan Rou stood behind Xu Ruoying and gave her buttocks a hard twist.

"Ah!"

Xu Ruoying suddenly yelped in pain, climbed off of Feng Lin, and was about to grab Lan Rou's hair, "You dare to pinch me?"

"Who pinched you?" Lan Rou asked with an innocent face.

"Where did she pinch you?"

Feng Lin grabbed Xu Ruoying's shoulders, restraining her on the sofa.

"If you don't like me just say so, why frame me? Where did I pinch you? Show Feng Lin."

Lan Rou wiped her eyes, looking pitiful.

"I..."

How could Xu Ruoying possibly let Feng Lin look there?

But with her character, she was never one to fake tears like Lan Rou.

Feeling more and more wronged, she quickly ran out.

"Xu Ruoying!" Feng Lin immediately gave chase.

Lan Rou pushed her glasses up a bit with a smile and followed them out.

Xu Ruoying couldn't run faster than Feng Lin; after just a hundred meters or so, Feng Lin caught her arm.

"Let go of me! Go play with your gentle big sister!"

Xu Ruoying's face was ice-cold as she struggled violently with her arm.
