Chapter 256 Crisis 2
Chapter 256 Crisis 2
Now that Bai Ningbing is disabled, no matter how proud she is, she knows that she doesn't have many cards left to play.
She didn't want to be treated coldly by Wu Tao in the future. She couldn't even be a normal person now, and if she suffered emotional abuse at home, it would be worse than death.
This is why Bai Ningbing immediately sought out a private lawyer; she urgently needs to save herself.
Taking revenge on He Qiang would not only make her feel better, but also prove herself to Wu Tao and help him vent his anger.
As long as Wu Tao can forgive her, Bai Ningbing doesn't mind doing something to make him feel better.
It has to be said that Bai Ningbing's actions were correct. If the original owner were still alive, even if Bai Ningbing had crippled legs, seeing her now, the original owner would forgive her.
Unfortunately, the original owner of that heart was filled with love and affection, but Bai Ningbing had already driven him to his death.
Wu Tao is a real monster these days. Rather than "I'd rather the world betray me," he believes in "I'd rather betray the world myself."
Even if it were just a few people ruined, or even hundreds of thousands of people killed, it wouldn't be a big deal for Wu Tao.
Consider that he has a history of tens of thousands of years in the cultivation world, and has personally killed no fewer than 100,000 enemies. Even his soul was bound to the Myriad Soul Banner, which is truly a fate worse than death.
It's just that he couldn't bring the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, otherwise Wu Tao would really love to see his enemy struggling in pain under the banner.
After discussing a plan with her lawyer, Bai Ningbing waited eagerly for Wu Tao to come to the hospital again.
She believed that once the other party heard this news, they would definitely be satisfied with her. Not only would it punish that scumbag He Qiang, but it would also increase her favor with Wu Tao.
Bai Ningbing's idea was good, but Wu Tao hasn't shown up since that day.
Bai Ningbing also developed some inflammation in a short period of time and needs to continue to receive treatment in the hospital.
In order to get Wu Tao to come over, Bai Ningbing also called Wu Tao.
However, Wu Tao said that the company has recently encountered some crises, so he cannot come in the short term.
Bai Ningbing initially thought the other party was just making excuses for her, until she saw Hu Jing at the hospital.
In less than a week, Hu Jing, who used to be well-maintained, looked disheveled and her complexion was extremely unpleasant.
"Mom, what's wrong? Did you and Dad have another fight?"
"No, it's because the company has run into problems recently. Your dad was taken away for investigation because of some tax issues with the company."
"Oh no, how could this be? Where's Wu Tao? Is he alright?"
Upon hearing that her father had been taken away, Bai Ningbing's first thought was to worry about Wu Tao. Perhaps everyone prioritizes their own safety in the most dangerous situations.
Bai Ningbing had long realized, through recent events, that neither her parents nor her sister were her support.
On the contrary, the husband who had always been ignored and hurt by her was the guarantee for her future life.
When Hu Jing heard Bai Ningbing's question, she was a little surprised that she had to ask Wu Tao, but she still explained.
"Xiao Tao is fine. He's at the company dealing with some urgent matters right now. He was worried about you, so he asked me to come and keep you company."
Bai Ningbing breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Wu Tao was alright. The thought that he had taken time out of his busy schedule to arrange for his mother to come to the hospital to be with her warmed her heart.
However, the better Wu Tao did, the more regret she felt.
This would make me look like I was so despicable to have hurt such a kind and righteous husband.
Hu Jing stayed with Bai Ningbing at the hospital. She didn't know why she had agreed to Wu Tao's request so easily today.
It seems that ever since Bai Fugui was taken away yesterday, Wu Tao has become the Bai family's support.
No matter how strong a woman is in normal times, she may choose to rely on a man when a real crisis comes.
Hu Jing stayed with Bai Ningbing at the hospital for a few days. When she returned home, she found that even the old house where she lived had been sealed off.
Hu Jing frantically picked up the phone to call Wu Tao, only to find that she could no longer reach him.
Hu Jing hurriedly took a car to Bai's Enterprise, but before she even got close, she found that there were debt collectors everywhere.
There were construction teams, employees, and many suppliers, all holding banners and blocking the front of the Bai's Enterprises building.
Hu Jing opened the car window and heard the sounds coming from outside.
At this point, Hu Jing finally understood that Bai's Enterprises seemed to be experiencing problems due to several investment projects.
Not only are stocks hitting their daily limit down, but many partners are also terminating their contracts.
Meanwhile, Bai's Enterprises has recently encountered loan problems, and several banks have immediately proposed to initiate asset preservation measures against Bai's Enterprises.
Hu Jing's original idea of coming to Bai's Enterprise to find Wu Tao was instantly extinguished. At this time, Wu Tao was probably already besieged in his office by debt collectors.
Hu Jing hurriedly returned to the hospital by car, and Bai Ningbing was full of surprise when she saw her mother again.
"Mom, didn't you just get back? What happened at home?"
"Ningbing, Bai's Enterprise is surrounded by debt collectors, and the old mansion has also been sealed off. I went to Bai's Enterprise and saw that it was blocked by debt collectors."
Bai Ningbing was shocked. She never expected that after her health deteriorated, her father would be arrested for tax issues, and now the Bai Group seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
Bai Ningbing hurriedly took out her phone to call Wu Tao, but unfortunately, the line was always busy.
"Don't call anymore. I just called and it was the same. I guess either Xiao Tao is being held up, or he turned off his phone."
When Bai Ningbing heard her mother say this, she realized what was going on and put aside her original suspicion that Wu Tao had blocked her.
Hu Jing and Bai Ningbing have never interfered with the company before, and now that this unexpected situation has arisen, there's nothing they can do but quietly wait for further developments.
At night, Hu Jing rarely slept with Bai Ningbing. Apart from comforting each other and saying that everything would be alright, there seemed to be nothing else they could do.
The next day, Hu Jing decided to stay at Bai Ningbing's house for a while.
The old house has been seized, and the other properties owned by the Bai family are likely to be the same. Only Bai Ningbing's house should be safe now.
Hu Jing helped Bai Ningbing complete the discharge procedures, and with the help of the aunt and the driver, Hu Jing took Bai Ningbing back to Bai Ningbing's home.
The two of them were dumbfounded as soon as they returned to the villa entrance.
The white seal affixed to the door left Hu Jing and Bai Ningbing dumbfounded once again.
"What's going on? Why is my house also sealed off?"
Bai Ningbing reluctantly raised her question, but unfortunately no one provided an answer.
At this moment, Hu Jing suddenly had a feeling that the building was about to collapse. Too many things had happened in the Bai family in just one week.
From his daughter's car accident to Bai Fugui's arrest, and then to the group being besieged by creditors.
Hu Jing felt that something was not right, and that there should be a thread connecting these things.
Until Bai Ningbing suddenly spoke:
"Mom, we have to go to the company to find Wu Tao. He's the only one who can help us right now."
Hu Jing suddenly shouted:
"No, Wu Tao, yes, it's him! He did all of this!"
"Mom, what are you talking about? He did everything?"
