“Why are you shouting! What if you harm my son! Do you know how serious the consequences can be! I didn’t do anything! Why should I be afraid!” Ding Xiang said agitatedly.

The real reason why Ding Xiang wanted to have this child was because she had always wanted a son. Ding Xiang’s first child was a girl and this made the Ding family very dissatisfied with her. The family members did not treat her first daughter kindly and her status in the family had become worse off.

For her prenatal checkup, Ding Xiang begged Qian’e to bring her to Xia Fang for a consultation. There were so many doctors around, but she only trusted Xia Fang. Since it was Qian’e who made the introduction, Xia Fang revealed the baby’s gender to Ding Xiang. From then on, Ding Xiang took extra care of herself and became very finicky and fussy. The entire Ding family’s hopes and dreams now rested on her unborn child.

“l must have been blind to agree to bring you to Aunt’s place for a prenatal checkup back then!” Qian’e said angrily.

“Enough! Talk nicely!” Qiao Mei grabbed Qian’e by the hand and whispered,

“Control your emotions. Don’t let her have a chance to faint here.”

Qian’e suppressed her anger and nodded. She gritted her teeth and said, “So many things have happened to the popcorn business. Now that Qiao Mei is back, you should give us an explanation.”

“It’s inevitable that one will face both profits and losses when doing business. You can’t reprimand us for making a loss after Zhao Fei and I took over the business. We’ve done our best over the years! We have never slacked off at all!” Ding Xiang complained.

Qiao Mei did not pay any attention to Ding Xiang and only stared at Zhao Fei. They had been business partners for many years and had worked hard together since before the factory was built. Qiao Mei had also helped him a lot with his problems in the Zhao family village. When Zhao Fei got married, it was Li Gui who gave him the money for the wedding. Qiao Mei did not believe that Zhao Fei would remain indifferent after having gone through all this with them.

“Zhao Fei, is everything your wife said true?” Qiao Mei asked.

She was giving Zhao Fei a chance to come clean. As long as Zhao Fei told them the whole story, Qiao Mei was willing to forgive them this time. After all, to Qiao Mei, this was only a part of the factory’s business. It did not matter to her who took charge of the popcorn business. However, it meant everything to Zhao Fei’s family.

Zhao Fei’s expression was dark and hard to read. Just as he was about to come clean and tell Qiao Mei the truth, Ding Xiang immediately stood up and said, “l have the final say in our family! Zhao Fei listens to me! Sister Qiao, we treat the factory like our own house! In the two years that you were not around, we did our best for you. What did we do vÆong?”

Qian’e could not stand Ding Xiangs nonsense anymore. She stood up, pointed at both Ding Xiang and Zhao Fei and roared, “What do you mean by you did your best! It’s obvious that you’re scheming to destroy the factory! Your relatives sold inferior products in private and passed them off as the factory’s products! Otherwise, would we have lost so much money and have to close down several shops!’

Qiao Mei sighed in disappointment and said, “Tell me about all this.”

Before Qiao Mei headed overseas, she had left behind two years’ worth of corn seeds in the warehouse. These corn seeds were handed over to her own team for safekeeping in the warehouse. She had also personally chosen the piece of land to grow the corn. She even reached an agreement with the relevant companies to ensure a constant supply of butter to the factory. It was only after everything was settled that Qiao Mei felt at ease to leave the capital and head to Country M.

However, half a year after Qiao Mei left, a large group of people suddenly came to the factory. They stood at the main entrance with copies of food poisoning diagnosis reports from the hospital and scolded the factory for producing “poison”!

Apparently, there were many people who had food poisoning after eating the popcorn produced by the factory. Among the victims, there were not only adults but also children! Some children even almost died! If not for the fact that Qiao Mei had left behind a lot of medicinal wine, some of the victims might have died.

Qian’e had wanted to tell Qiao Mei about this matter and ask her to come back and make a decision. However, Li Gui was worried that it would be too tedious for Qiao Mei to fly back from overseas. Moreover, she did not want Qiao Mei to worry about such an exhausting issue, so they did not inform her at the first instance.

Given that it was a matter of life and death, Qian’e did not have the time to do a full investigation. She compensated 3,000 dollars to each adult and 5,000 dollars to each child who got food poisoning after eating the popcorn.

Furthermore, the factory undertook to cover the medical expenses for the children if any of them had any further discomfort within one year after the diagnosis..
