Chapter 163 An Awkward Day, in front of Zhou Ya

Zhou Ya saw the scene inside the office and froze slightly, but she immediately reacted.

"Miss Su, what are you…"

Zhou Ya's tone was full of mockery, and at this moment, Su Qiaoer just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. It was humiliation; for her, it was absolute humiliation.

After all, the most embarrassing moment of her life was seen by her ex-husband's current wife. For her, this was an utter disgrace.

"Su Qiaoer, I think we have nothing left to say. You had better leave quickly."

When Zheng Jie spoke, his tone was full of indifference.

To him, the current fate of the Su Family was exactly what he had foreseen, so how could he possibly soften his heart?

Upon hearing this, Su Qiaoer suddenly looked up. At this moment, her face was covered in tear stains, and her eyes were red and swollen.

Leave?

No, she couldn't leave. If she left, there would truly be no turning point for this matter.

"Zheng Jie, I beg you, let us off. Please return the money to us, okay?"

Although she knew that being so groveling was shameful, she couldn't care about that anymore. That was over two billion! Without it, she didn't know how she would explain it to her family; perhaps her parents would be angered to death.

"I have already told you, I have no way to help with this matter. Foreign countries have their own regulations. You violated their rules, so they are sanctioning you according to their own laws. This is a very normal thing, isn't it? I am just a businessman; there are many things I cannot make decisions about."

These words were mere high-sounding lies. Everyone knew this must have been his doing, but he simply refused to admit it, using these grand-sounding clichés to respond, leaving them with nothing to say.

Su Qiaoer's face was unsightly. She wanted to say something, but couldn't get anything out. After all, she wasn't him and had no way to make decisions on his behalf.

Therefore, in this situation, Su Qiaoer had no choice but to leave. Watching her retreating figure, Zhou Ya looked at Zheng Jie in front of her.

"Something happened?"

"Their money was intercepted abroad and has already been confiscated by the local government. Now, apart from a few million domestically, they don't have any funds left, unless they are willing to sell off the assets under their names. However, they probably don't have many assets left under their names. I estimate only that Villa is still worth some money; the rest probably wouldn't even sell if they were discounted."

In fact, for the current Su Family, they definitely wouldn't be unable to survive. Although the Su Group had been reorganized by Zheng Jie into a rent-collecting company, the entire group currently had an annual income of over 100 million.

It's just that the Su Family's shares in the Su Group were too low, probably less than two percent. So for them, the annual dividends were only a few hundred thousand, close to a million.

For ordinary people, this is of course an astronomical figure. After all, looking across the whole country, how many people can achieve an annual income of one million? But for their luxurious lifestyle, this one million is simply not enough.

Moreover, this circle is very realistic. If you don't have enough funds to live the same life as others, why would they include you? When you are successful, there are good people all around, and everyone calls you brother, or at least a friend. But when you fall, you will find that even if you take the initiative to visit, people won't even want to see you. It is very realistic.

"I heard that Miss Su is a person who values face very much. I was even here, and she was still able to kneel down and beg you. It seems she is indeed desperate."

Zhou Ya understood this matter. Barring any surprises, it should be Zheng Jie's doing, because even if those abroad had some ideas, they wouldn't have acted so quickly.

It was probably confiscated as soon as it was transferred out; it was very likely that they were being watched.

The foreign personnel didn't have the ability to predict the future, so how could they have acted so decisively?

It was obvious that someone had arranged it, and that person must be Zheng Jie. However, as a smart person, she knew what should be said and what shouldn't. In any case, she knew how Su Qiaoer had treated Zheng Jie in the past, so now that Zheng Jie had the upper hand, it was normal for him to take revenge.

"So let's just watch the show from now on. Let's go, now that things are settled, I'll accompany you to the Zhou Family."

Today, the two of them needed to visit the Zhou Family, mainly to discuss some wedding matters. After all, the wedding date was approaching. Although the preparatory work had been mostly arranged by a professional team, there were still some detailed issues that needed to be confirmed with the Zhou Family, such as their guests and the relationships between these guests.

Human relationships must be the most complex thing in this world, bar none. It's possible that two people have mutual friends, but those two people happen to be mortal enemies. In such a situation, it is certainly impossible to seat them together at the wedding, otherwise, those two would likely start fighting, and this aspect needed to be communicated with the Zhou Family.

Zheng Jie understood the situation of the guests on his side, while the Zhou Family certainly knew the situation of the guests on their side better.

"Let's go, Grandfather and the others are already waiting for us at home."

During this period, the development of the Zhou Family had been quite smooth. Although no projects were given directly, in case studies, the Zhou Family had actually obtained quite good resources with the help of the Zheng Group. To give a simplest example, the Zhou Family had already begun preparing their own car company.

Moreover, this car company focused on new energy, so their batteries would certainly come from the Zheng Group. Compared with other companies, their prices would definitely be lower, which was an advantage for them.

This was the meaning of so-called marriage alliance. Zhou Ya also had shares in this car company, amounting to 17%. Who were these 17% of shares given because of? That was self-evident.

Therefore, Zhou Ya was quite satisfied with marrying Zheng Jie. After all, if not for this, she definitely wouldn't have been able to get these 17% of shares. Although her family pampered her, pampering and valuing were two different things.

Don't forget that even Zhou Ya's brother hadn't received shares in this company, yet she had them. The reason for all this was entirely because of her future husband; if not for this relationship, she probably wouldn't have been able to get the shares now.

As the two of them left, on the other side, Su Qiaoer was driving, aimlessly wandering on the road.

At this moment, she didn't know where she should go. Go back home? But if she went back home and saw her parents, what should she say? If they asked about the money, how should she answer?

Moreover, Su Qiaoer knew that this matter simply couldn't be hidden, because her family was about to go abroad soon. Once they went abroad and discovered that there was no money in the two funds, and even the cryptocurrency was gone, her family would definitely explode.

Therefore, in this situation, she definitely needed to tell her family. With this thought in mind, Su Qiaoer could only bite the bullet, drive the car, and head towards home. After about 20 minutes, Su Qiaoer arrived home.

The location of the Su Family's Villa was actually quite good. When their family bought this Villa, they spent a total of 700 million. But the key problem was that even if it had this value, it had to be sold. If it couldn't be sold, it was equivalent to this Villa being worthless.

Over these years, the global economic situation had not been very good. Moreover, for most wealthy people, those who wanted to buy a Villa had already bought one. Now, the demand for Villas was really not that great. And there were quite a few now; not to mention, if people wanted to buy one, why wouldn't they buy a new one instead of a second-hand one?

So in this situation, the assets that the Su Family could actually sell were not particularly many. At most, the remaining things that could be sold would only bring in a little money, but this was their last way to get cash.

Pushing open the door to the house, at this moment, Su Qiaoer saw her parents sitting in the living room. They didn't know about the money yet and were sitting in the living room looking at their phones.

Seeing Su Qiaoer return, the Su Parents asked subconsciously.

"Su Qiaoer, has the news from abroad come through? How is the situation with the money?"
