Chapter 293 - Big Trouble

'In my previous life, you often use her as a tool to anger me!'

However, that was all in Ye Qiao's previous life. When she thought about it, she did not blame Madam Du at all. Karma had its way.

Madam Du was not an unreasonable person. As a daughter-in-law, she was impeccable in her conduct. Naturally, she would not feel bad about herself! Of course, it was a different story if she met a blind, overbearing, and unreasonable mother-in-law.

"This girl is too scary! When I think of how well she disguised herself, I still feel numb in my head!" Madam Du said unhappily, "Sigh, the morals of the world are declining day by day. People's hearts are not as pure as last time!"

As soon as she finished speaking, her phone rang.

"Director Du, the Changfeng Group's funds haven't been transferred yet. The construction company is pressing for the funds!" Over the phone, the general ledger accountant said anxiously.

Madam Du frowned. "What did the accountant from Changfeng say?"

"Accountant Zhu kept avoiding. I've been pressing for payment for a few days! It's always 'tomorrow'!"

"Please calm the contractors. I'll ask President Gu to press for payment!" Madam Du said in a low voice and hung up the phone.

Ye Qiao had a feeling that something bad had happened.

"Auntie, is something wrong?" Ye Qiao asked with concern. Madam Du shook her head slightly. She was in a hurry to make a call. Holding her cell phone, she quickly dialed the number.

"President Gu, please help me see what's going on with your company's accountant. Why hasn't the payment for this issue been made yet? The contractor is in a hurry to use it!" Madam Du said politely. Gu Changfeng was her partner in this project.

Ye Qiao understood what she meant when she heard her words.

"Sister Du, forgive me for being blunt, but my company's funding chain is down. I'm afraid we can't continue investing in this project! Sister Du, I'm also helpless..." Gu Changfeng's voice was heard. On the other side, Madam Du was shocked.

"Gu Changfeng, are you trying to withdraw your investment?" she asked frantically.

The word 'withdraw' shocked Ye Qiao.

Seeing Madam Du's gloomy face, she understood how serious this matter was to her.

"Sister Du, I didn't want to, but I had no choice!" Gu Changfeng sighed and said with a helpless tone.

Madam Du's body swayed. Ye Qiao, who was sitting opposite her, subconsciously patted the back of her hand and gave her a look that said, "Don't worry."

"Gu Changfeng! Aren't you forcing me into a dead-end by saying that you want to withdraw your investment? Terminate our project halfway? Ah! What other projects do you lack money for? Can't you give it a rest?" Madam Du asked.

"Sister Du! I think not only do you want to withdraw your investment, but I'm afraid that you have to return the funds that Changfeng invested in the past to us in accordance with the agreement! I won't mind the loss!" Gu Changfeng said again.

Madam Du never expected that Gu Changfeng would ask her to pay for it!

"Gu Changfeng, tell me the truth. What exactly do you want to do?" Madam Du was also a person who had experienced great storms. She felt that this matter was not simple.

"Sister Du! What can I want to do? I only want money now!" Gu Changfeng said in a deep voice. Madam Du was so angry that she directly hung up.

"Auntie, Gu Changfeng wants to withdraw his investment? Is this the project that is being built now?" Ye Qiao asked.

Madam Du nodded heavily. "Qiao Qiao, Auntie, Auntie is in big trouble this time..."

Her face turned pale and she looked like she could not breathe. Ye Qiao hurriedly walked to her side. "Auntie, don't be anxious.. Don't be anxious. Take your time!"
