After divorcing the mute girl, President Gu knelt down and begged for reconciliation.

Chapter 121 Eyes Shining
Half an hour later, Madam Gu finally arrived. Sitting next to Liu Qin was Song Chaochao, who had been impatiently waiting for her. Upon seeing her arrive, Song Chaochao quickly stood up, her eyes crinkling with a smile, and called out to her.

"mother-in-law."

The moment those three words were uttered, Madam Gu's expression instantly darkened.

She glanced at it indifferently and didn't respond. Just then, the maid brought in the tea.

Madam Gu took a sip of tea first: "Is there something you need?"

Liu Qin knew that the woman in front of her was giving her a hard time, and she felt angry, but she could only suppress it.

After all, one still needs to make money, so one has to be humble.

Song Chaochao was still young and proud. From the moment she stepped through the door, she was annoyed by the old woman in front of her. She felt that coming to the Gu family to ask for money was the stupidest decision she had ever made!

Is it too late to leave now?

Liu Qin gave her a docile look and started chatting with Madam Gu about everyday things. After all, both of them were old foxes who had been around for a long time and were also playing the game of Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio.

“Mother-in-law, I am indeed in trouble this time. Over the years, you and father-in-law have always taken good care of the Song family, and the Song family is grateful to you.”

Demanding that she be removed along with the flattering hat, Madam Gu wanted to roll her eyes at Liu Qin in front of her. Sure enough, the Song family doesn't come here unless they have a reason. They're shameless.

Madam Gu put the teacup back, her smile forced: "Since you know the Gu family has been taking care of you, what else is there to be dissatisfied about?"

She was in a superior position, so naturally she adopted the demeanor of one, as if she could crush Liu Qin at any moment.

Liu Qin smiled and didn't feel offended at all. Instead, she continued, "Recently, the Song family has been experiencing some cash flow difficulties, so I would like to ask my mother-in-law for help. We are indeed short of funds right now, but as soon as the situation improves, I will definitely repay you double."

She started making empty promises again. Song Chaochao was astonished. Could she really exaggerate like that?

The company is now in a terrible predicament and needs someone to lend a hand, so even if we are treated coldly, we can only endure it.

Madam Gu sneered, "The Gu family has already helped the Song family enough. In the past few years, we haven't received a single penny of the benefits you gained from selling your daughter. Why are you trying to extort money from us now?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Qin coughed lightly, maintaining her shamelessness throughout.

“Mother-in-law, you can’t say that,” Liu Qin continued. “How can this be considered extortion? Our two families are practically family. When you’re family, you don’t speak like family. It’s just helping each other out. How can you use the word ‘extortion’? It should be called helping.”

Madam Gu was furious when she saw Liu Qin able to turn white into black and black into white.

Then I thought of Song Jin'an again. It's true what they say, birds of a feather flock together; everyone in them is so annoying.

She sneered, "Don't you know whether we're family or not?"

"Or have you forgotten how you got Song Jin'an into my son's bed after all these years?"

Madam Gu spoke first, saying that this was a shameful matter between the two families. Liu Qin, on the other hand, felt a lump in her throat, as if she couldn't win the argument with the woman in front of her. She had been indulging in the gentle embrace of the young man for the past few years, and her tongue had become less eloquent.

“Mother-in-law, you can’t say that. No matter what, Song Jin’an has given birth to a child for the Gu family.”

At this point, Madam Gu gave another cold laugh: "A mere maidservant, who cares? Would you want her if I gave her to you?"

These words left Liu Qin speechless. She wondered how this woman in front of her could be so powerful.

Liu Qin took a heavy breath and continued, "Mother-in-law, are you really unwilling to help with this?"

"I don't have any money to lend." Madam Gu smiled, then turned her gaze to Song Chaochao, who was sitting silently to the side, and began to speak sarcastically: "Don't you have a daughter?" "If you do the same thing again and send her to the bed of a rich young master in Haicheng, I think it will definitely help the Song family get through this crisis."

Upon hearing this, Liu Qin clenched her fists, her eyes sharpened, and the pretentious smile on her face vanished completely.

"Mrs. Gu, aren't you going too far?"

Madam Gu was stunned for two or three seconds by Liu Qin's words. Who was bullying whom?

She sneered, "Liu Qin, I've given you face, so don't be shameless. You should know in your heart who's been shameless from beginning to end, what I mean by bullying someone."

"I only have one thing to say: if you don't have the money, you can choose to sell your daughter again."

Feeling offended, Song Chaochao suddenly stood up from the sofa, her elegant demeanor completely vanishing.

"You're being far too harsh. What do you mean my mother sold her daughter?"

She was aggressive, never considering Song Jin'an a member of the Gu family: "She's an illegitimate child, not my mother's daughter!"

"Mom, let's go! We don't want this old hag's money!"

After finishing her sentence, Song Chaochao grabbed Liu Qin's phone and walked out.

Liu Qin didn't want to stay there any longer, so she left. The mother and daughter were left feeling humiliated. Madam Gu watched them leave and snorted coldly, "Even less well-mannered than Song Jin'an."

She sat there and took another sip of tea. A few minutes later, she took out her phone and made a call. She hung up after the call ended, feeling a little better.

Since this mother and daughter are so arrogant, then don't blame her for making it impossible for the Song family to get any loans from the banks in Haicheng with just one phone call.

After Liu Qin and her daughter got into the car, they were so angry they were practically grinding their teeth. Song Chaochao, in particular, was furious: "Mom, that old woman's words were so awful!"

If I had known she was so difficult to deal with, I wouldn't have bothered with this jerk.

Liu Qin, on the other hand, remained calm: "I didn't get the money, and I suffered for nothing."

Although he appeared calm on the surface, he was seething with hatred inside.

Song Chaochao said impatiently, "Then what do we do now? Are we just going to wait for a bank loan?"

"This is the only way now."

Song Chaochao sneered: "Song Jin'an is really useless. She's been married into the Gu family for several years and still hasn't satisfied her mother-in-law. Her belly is also disappointing, only carrying a daughter. If she had given birth to a son, we wouldn't be in such a passive position today."

Liu Qin remained silent, pondering what to do.

“I know what to do.” Song Chaochao suddenly spoke up, her eyes sparkling: “Mom, hasn’t that old hag from the Gu family always wanted Song Jin’an to divorce Gu Xijue and remarry?”

Song Chaochao also knew that Madam Gu had been looking for a suitable young lady from a wealthy family to marry Gu Xijue.

“We’ll force Song Jin’an to divorce Gu Xijue. You call that old hag and discuss it with her. Once we get the divorce certificate, the Gu family will have to give us 2 billion. I think 2 billion for a divorce certificate isn’t a losing proposition for the Gu family.”

The Gu family's assets are worth thousands of times more than two billion.

“No way.” Liu Qin was unmoved by the suggestion, her eyes flashing with a shrewd light: “Twenty billion is a limited amount of money, but if we cling to the Gu family’s coattails, as long as Song Jin’an doesn’t get a divorce, the Song family will have unlimited money.”
