"President Wu, you, you know him?" Faye Xu asked Mindy Wu, clinging desperately on her final hope.
Mindy Wu nodded and said, "Mr. Chen is an honored guest of my family. What's the matter?"
Faye Xu's face immediately turned pale. She took a few steps back, hurriedly waved her hand and dismissed, "No, nothing."
But at this time, Fade Chen snorted and stated, "President Xu, this isn't what you said just now. You had ramped the barrier, hit a man and assaulted people, oh and verbally abused us. It doesn't look like nothing to me?"
Faye Xu looked quickly at Fade Chen, eager to mend the wrongs. She bowed respectfully and pleaded, "Mr. Chen, it was all a misunderstanding just now. It was my fault. I hope you don't take it to heart and forgive me this once, I will..."
Fade Chen waved his hand in disgust and interrupted coldly, "You want me to spare you this once? If I hadn't showed up, would you have spared these security guards?"
Mindy Wu's brows knitted in a frown. She
asked Fade Chen, "Mr. Chen, what just happened?"
Fade Chen subsequently told Mindy Wu the whole story of Faye Xu and Zion Liu's outrageous behaviors. Faye Xu and Zion Liu's faces turned as white as a sheet.
Additionally, Little Fish who was in Mindy's arms, also intercepted from time to time.
"Mommy, this aunty is a bad person. She scolded me and Brother Superman."
"Also, she wanted to hit me, saying that I am a wild kid."
Suddenly, Mindy Wu's face darkened. She glimpsed at Faye Xu coldly and said, "President Xu, how many times have I told you that my father has retired and is no longer the mayor. It's useless for you to look for us. But you insisted on coming here again and again, and now even did such an unreasonable thing."
"I think, President Xu, you should reflect on yourself now. As for the land approval, I think you should leave the thought aside."
Faye Xu's face turned pale. Her body shook hard and she almost tripped.
Although Mr. Wu had retired, but due to his many years of service as the mayor of Bay City, he still enjoyed a strong connection. Furthermore, he had a son who was a successful businessman in the provincial capital of Long City. Even in retirement, he still had a big influence.
This was the very reason Faye Xu came to him many times, to seek Mr. Wu's help to settle the land issue.
But now, Mindy Wu's words had almost cut off their intention of getting the land approved. After all, with Mr. Wu's status, if he even mentioned this matter slightly, the relevant departments of Bay City would naturally consider the impact, and it would be impossible for Faye Xu's company to get approval for the land.
Faye Xu seemed to have suffered a huge blow from this realization and her face fell blank. She had lost her wits even more so compared to when she was beaten by Fade Chen.
With a pleading face, she almost knelt in front of Mindy Wu and Fade Chen asking for another chance.
It was impossible for Mindy Wu and Fade Chen to forgive such people. So naturally, they turned the couple down coldly and proceeded to leave.
Knowing that there's no chance, Faye Xu collapsed to the ground. Her husband, Zion Liu, still in resentment, picked Faye Xu up and growled, "Dear, get up. Don't beg anymore. At most, we won't build a new factory. With our company's current scale and profit, we will still live well."
