This was all related to Qiao Weiyang!

Why was she everywhere? Why was she always causing trouble for her?!

However, Anderson did not give her a chance to think too much about it. He directly got someone to inform Old Master Zheng to ask for money.

It was too late for Zheng Mengwei to stop him.

When Old Master Zheng received the call, he did not expect such a thing to happen.

He had told Zheng Mengwei to stop caring about this fake red diamond and not fall deeper and deeper.

In the current situation, it was really difficult for him to accept that he had to compensate so much money.

The butler reminded him, “Old Master, I heard that Mr. Anderson has some connections with the Lu family. Why don’t you ask the Lu family to help make peace? Let’s just try to avoid the penalty…”

When Old Master Zheng heard that, he immediately went to the Lu family’s mansion.

Hearing that Old Master Zheng was here, Su Bei, who was pouring tea for Lu Heting, paused. “What is Old Master Zheng doing here?”

“Let him in,” Lu Heting said calmly.

Old Master Zheng walked in and saw that Lu Heting’s and Su Bei’s expressions were a little calm. He immediately realized his rudeness. It was just that the matter was too important and the loss of money was too heavy, so he immediately went along with the butler’s suggestion.

But in fact, the Zheng family had already offended the Lu family, no?

He immediately did not know whether to stand or sit.

Su Bei greeted, “Old Master Zheng? Please take a seat.”

Since he was already here, it was not convenient for him to leave immediately. Old Master Zheng sat down.

Su Bei poured him a cup of tea and slowly said, “I really didn’t expect you to come personally. Previously, when something happened to our family, Mengwei said that the Zheng family was also embroiled in a lot of matters and was short of funds. I was thinking of paying a visit to the Zheng family.”

Old Master Zheng felt like he was in an uncomfortable situation because of Su Bei’s words.

Back then, when something happened to Su Group, that was not only Zheng Mengwei’s att.i.tude but also Old Master Zheng’s.

The friends and companies who were on good terms with the Su and Lu families tried their best to help. Although it was a drop in the bucket, it was still a show of their friends.h.i.+p.

Old Master Zheng and Zheng Mengwei thought that Su Zhuoqian would not be able to get up that time, so their att.i.tudes could not help but be cold.

Now, he really couldn’t bring himself to ask Lu Heting and Su Bei for help.

Seeing that he was silent, Su Bei asked curiously, “Old Master, why are you here today?”

“Well…” Old Master Zheng braced himself and told her what had happened.

When Su Bei heard this, she said in surprise, “Really? However, Mr. Anderson is also a friend of ours. I’m afraid he must be really angry after encountering such an incident. Besides, that’s what the contract says. Old Master, this isn’t appropriate, right? It’d be fine if it were a small matter, but it’s such a big matter. Even if I talk to him, he might not listen to me.”

How could Old Master Zheng not understand her evasion?

Forget it. Their att.i.tude back then had made Su Bei give up on them. Now, it was even more difficult to ask them for help.

The long-standing relations.h.i.+p between these two families would probably be cut off here.

In fact, in Su Bei’s heart, the relations.h.i.+p between the two families had long been severed when Su Group was in trouble.

Old Master Zheng stood up. Su Bei said, “Old Master, aren’t you going to sit a little longer?”

“I’m still busy resolving this matter, so I need to leave.”

“I’m really sorry that I can’t help out. If you need anything else in the future, just let me know, Old Master.” Su Bei returned what they had said back then.

Old Master Zheng left in a hurry.

Looking at his figure, Su Bei spread her hands. Lu Heting looked at her dotingly. “Oh, you.”

“I didn’t expect him that I could repeat those words exactly. He left so quickly, but I still have a lot to say.”

“Why don’t I get someone to bring him back so that you can play with him again?” After saying that, Lu Heting got someone to chase after Old Master Zheng.

“Alright, forget it. That old man isn’t in good health. If he falls sick again because of me, I won’t be able to bear the consequences. Let’s leave it at that. Anyway, my anger has almost subsided.”

Lu Heting laughed. “Come and drink tea with me.”

Su Bei walked over smoothly.

Zheng Mengwei’s matter had not been resolved, so she had no choice but to compensate according to the contract.

This made the Zheng family’s financial situation worse.

The outside world also knew that Zheng Mengwei had a fake red diamond.

It was fine if it was fake. Who in the jewelry business hadn’t bought fakes a few times and suffered?

However, it was fake and was even displayed as if it was real. This made Zheng Mengwei’s character and credibility widely questioned.

Many people even suspected: [In that case, is it possible that the products I bought from the Zheng family’s jewelry brand are fake?]

[That’s right. If she dares to deceive a big jewelry dealer like Anderson, won’t small customers like us be fooled by her?]

[It’s too scary. Who would dare to buy their jewelry in the future?]

[Let’s not talk about the future. I want to check the jewelry I bought previously to see if they’re real. All my money is hard-earned. I don’t want to be a fool.]

For a moment, the Zheng family’s jewelry industry suffered a huge blow.

Many things that were originally booked were asked to be returned.

Some of the things that were sold earlier had also been asked to be tested, causing the Zheng family’s employees to be too busy with these things. They did not have time to venture into new businesses at all. Moreover, there were no new businesses at all.

The Zheng family’s situation became critical. The only family they were on good terms with was the Su family.

However, when something happened to the Su family, the news of them standing by and doing nothing spread. Many people had a new understanding of their character and did not want to interact with their families anymore.

Even if some people wanted to help on account of their old friends.h.i.+p, they all dismissed the idea when they thought about how they did not want to offend Su Group.

The decline of the Zheng family was imminent.

Su Bei did not even mention these things to Su Zhuoqian and Qiao Weiyang.

Some people were not worthy of being brought up.

Qiao Weiyang had something to do at Su Group. Before she got close, the higher-ups stood up and greeted her warmly, calling her Young Madam affectionately.

She nodded in greeting and walked in.

Zhou Lang came over to welcome her. She couldn’t help but find it strange. “What’s wrong with everyone today? Why is everyone so enthusiastic?”

“Young Madam, you don’t know about the Zheng family yet, right? Zheng Mengwei’s red diamond has been proven to be fake. She received a deposit from someone and was asked to pay ten times the amount! This eldest daughter of the Zheng family is really too much. In the past, she was quite talented and did things steadily. Now, she’s getting more and more reckless.”
