Chapter 46: Years at Sea, Earned a Solitary

hree seconds. Now apologize to me, and maybe I can pretend today never happened."The department manager gasped, in his years at the Li Corporation he'd always been treated with deference. Never had he...A million might be alright, Luo Ningxi thought, selling the fund might help round it up.

Even a million wouldn't be enough! I'd have to sell her whole self and it still wouldn't cover it!

Li Bochen sighed softly, “My hometown is building a house. Two workers fell down, one died and the other was injured. The compensation amount plus the delay in construction time, the debt just rolled bigger and bigger, until it reached ten million.”

Lu Ningxi was dumbfounded, staring at him blankly.

Renovating a house is a happy thing, but to end up like this, it's too unlucky!

"After so many years at sea, how much have you paid back, and how much is still owed" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

"I earn a lot and spend even more, so over the past few years I've just broken even!"

"You—" Luo Ningxi was so exasperated, she didn't know whether to sympathize with him or scold him.

He took advantage of his youth and good looks to make some money to pay off his debts and enjoy the consumerist lifestyle. What will he do when he gets older and can't sell anything, not even his backside

In a fit of anger, Luo Ningxi left Li Botong in the living room and went to sleep in the biggest master bedroom. After thinking about it, she still locked her bedroom door.

Who knows what that nasty duck might do to her in the middle of the night

Li Bochen leaned languidly on the sofa, suddenly hearing a "click" of a door latch, his smile vanished instantly.

Is this little rabbit more afraid of thieves or people

In the bedroom, Luoningxi comfortably lay back on the bed.

The configuration of Shengshi Hotel is great. It has a king-size smart bed with a massage function that simulates multiple postures!

Before going to sleep, Luo Ningxi played with her phone. The phone screen reflected her flushed cheeks. Luo Ningxi couldn't help but be amazed at herself. With her current appearance, she was almost ugly beyond recognition. How could she possibly put on a brave face

In the living room, a faint scent of bath soap mingled with a sharp medicinal aroma, lingering in the air.

Li Bochem kept glancing at the tightly shut bedroom door.

There's always a feeling of unrest, like a fire burning in my lower abdomen.

It's fine that I was once indifferent to worldly pleasures, but ever since I started eating meat and got married, physiological needs occasionally arise. This is the most primal desire of a healthy man. However, when I think about the slap marks on Luo Ningxi's face, my expression gradually darkens.

He had no sleepiness and got up to send a WeChat message to his assistant, "Notify everyone, treat the Luo family well."

Since the Luo family is so disrespectful, there's no need to hold back anymore.

……

As soon as Li Bocen gave the order, the Luo family was thrown into chaos.

All night, Luo Yi and Jiang Jingya sat in the living room, constantly receiving calls from business partners canceling their cooperation, or banks calling to collect debts.

This put even greater financial pressure on the Luo family, who were already struggling.

In just one short night, Luo Yi was utterly exhausted, his entire being seeming to have aged several years.

"Dad! I thought about it all night. The contract is written in black and white, and now Shengshi has broken the contract. We can sue them for breach of contract!" Luo Zhiqin went downstairs and sat beside Jiang Jingya.

Luo Yi saw Luo Zhiqin's anger was inexplicable, and he didn't have a good face. "The liquidated damages are only a few dollars Besides, Shengshi has an entire team of top lawyers worldwide. Lawsuits with them are time-consuming and laborious. The Luo family will be dragged down, and they may not even be able to get the liquidated damages."

Luo Zhiqin gaped, "Then we were just played by Shengshi for nothing"

"Don't you have the face to speak If it weren't for your greed and ambition to be in charge, things wouldn't have turned out like this!"

Luo Yi's reprimand fell, Jiang Jingya hurriedly comforted, "The solution is what people come up with, as long as we find Luo Ningxi to apologize to Mr. Mo, everything can still turn around, honey, please calm down..."

Luo Yi rubbed his aching temples, remained silent. At this moment, Luo Zhiqin's phone rang. After answering, her face turned sinister——

"Dad, Mom, Chengnan said that Loningxi was found! At Shengshi Hotel!"

……

Shengshi Hotel, Loningxi slept very soundly.

Standing before the sink, she saw that most of the swelling on her face had gone down. Only when she occasionally touched the wound did she feel a slight sting.

Li Bochen appeared out of nowhere, leaning lazily against the doorframe and glancing inside. "It's not as bad as I thought," he said.

"This ointment really works." Luo Ningxi looked at Li Bichen through the mirror, her gaze locking with his, and said sincerely, "Thank you."

"What do you want for breakfast I'll have it sent up." Li Boche asked.

"Luo Ningxi waved her hand and said, 'We've already been using the internal super-low discount price. It's a bit embarrassing to ask the hotel staff to help us again. We'll just go down and eat ourselves later. There are also more noodle choices...' "

"Suit yourself."

Luo Ningxi washed her face, applied some ointment, and didn't put on makeup. She went to the free restaurant on the first floor with Li Bochen, looking plain. was already done with her checkup and sitting in the corridor.She saw Luo Zhiqin return, covering her stomach and speaking unhappily, "Zhiqin, didn't you say you would wait for me here Where did you...
