At this time, Xiao Mu, who was standing at the side, walked between Xiao Yue and Yueqian and advised, "Yueqian, I believe that the more Xiao Yue can handle this matter. His performance over the past year has already proved his strength. I believe that he will not let our Xiao Clan's reputation be damaged. You can go back first. Xiao Yue and I will handle this matter well."

Yue Qian stared at Xiao Mu in astonishment. She did not expect that Xiao Mu, who had been helping her, would actually lean towards Xiao Yue, and she did not hesitate to stand on Xiao Yue's side.

"Could it be that you also allowed him to make such nonsense?" Yue Qian said angrily to Xiao Mu, "Did you just watch as Xiao Yue crippled the rules of the Xiao Clan?"

Xiao Mu sighed softly. "Yueqian, stop being stubborn. Look at everyone. If Xiao Yue doesn't do well, do you think these shareholders and the people from the Xiao Family will be willing to listen to him? Also, do you think I'm the kind of person who doesn't know right from wrong?"

Only then did Yue Qian turn her head and carefully observe those people. She found that in the eyes of these people, aside from ridicule and disdain, no one supported her at all.

Xiao Yue felt that it was time for Mrs. Xiao to go back and rest. "Mrs. Xiao, "There are many things that you don't know. My reform of the Xiao family is not just about those family rules. So you don't have to insist on it anymore. It's meaningless. You don't have to be a lobbyist for Zuo Yi anymore. I don't want to end up thinking about it. You still want to put on a reputation for yourself for a penniless person. Do you understand me?"

Yue Qian sighed in her heart about her son's methods. When she thought that he had done nothing, he had actually completely changed the entire Xiao Clan.

'"That's enough," Yue Qian smiled bitterly. "I understand. You've actually done a lot, but you're not willing to tell me. You're hiding it from me, making me think that you didn't do anything, right?"

"Don't you watch the news on the news website every day?" Nie Yin couldn't help but ask, "Just because we didn't say it doesn't mean you can't understand it yourself, right?"

'"That's what I meant," Xiao Bo said. "Don't think that we have to revolve around you. We should report everything to you. This era is over. We only listen to Xiao Yue now."

"Madam Xiao, don't be deceived by Zuo Qian's father and daughter. Their company isn't as good as they say it is." Xiao Yuan also walked closer to Yueqian and said a few steps.

"Do you understand now?" Xiao Yue made a gesture of invitation. '"Madam Xiao, I, Xiao Yue, will not do anything wrong to the Xiao Clan. If you still want to question me in the future, please find out the truth before coming back. Finally, I will make it clear that I will definitely cancel this engagement. You should go back to your room and rest now."

Xiao Yue looked at the butler standing at the side and said, "Gu Hong, send Madam back to rest."

"Yes," Gu Hong immediately walked over to Yue Qian and bowed slightly. "Madam, please."

Yue Qian was very unwilling, but she knew that she had already lost. Everyone standing in the living room right now would not speak up for her. They would only surround Xiao Yue.

Just as Mrs. Xiao was about to step out of the living room door, Xiao Yue said coldly, "Mrs. Xiao, isn't this what you expect me to be like now? I'm as you wish, you should be happy."

Yue Qian did not say anything else and silently left the banquet hall.

This was the first time that Xiao Yue had truly defeated his mother. However, Xiao Yue looked at Yue Qian's figure far away without any joy of victory in his heart. Instead, he felt infinite loneliness.

Xiao Yue closed his eyes forcefully and took a deep breath before opening his eyes again. He smiled at the shareholders and the elders of the Xiao Clan.

Xiao Mu, who was standing at the side, saw all of this in his eyes. He understood that Xiao Yue did not hate his mother as much as he said. It was only because she had killed Su Nuo that Xiao Yue refused to forgive his mother.

After the New Year banquet, Xiao Mu originally wanted to leave Xiao Yue to have a good talk with him, but Xiao Yue still refused to stay at the Xiao Clan and chose to return to the co-operation team.

"Uncle, I won't come back until the plan is over. When this is over and I can accept it, I will naturally come back." Xiao Yue could only express his truest thoughts towards Xiao Mu, who had always wanted to stay behind. '"I still can't forgive Mrs. Xiao. As long as I think about Su Nuo being forced to jump over a cliff that day and still haven't found her body, my heart can't be calm."

Xiao Mu only hoped that Xiao Yue could get out of the pain of losing Su Nuo as soon as possible. "I know that you've always been very sad. I don't want to force you to do anything. If you can let go of these grudges one day, then come back to the Xiao Clan. Uncle, I can't guard the Xiao Clan for you for the rest of my life."

Xiao Yue nodded, "Uncle, I know that I am willful, I will definitely compensate you in the future."

Xiao Mu couldn't help but sigh as he said, "Uncle doesn't need any compensation from you. Uncle wishes to see you happy. Uncle is also responsible for Su Nuo's incident. I've caused you to lose your beloved girl. Uncle, I'm sorry. I promised to help you, but I didn't."

"Uncle, you don't have to blame yourself. It wasn't your fault either," Xiao Yue looked at Xiao Mu warmly. "Give me a little more time and I will definitely come back."

Xiao Mu nodded.

In the months after the New Year banquet, shareholders secretly used their power to manipulate the stock market, continuously suppressing the shares of the Zuo Shipping Company, causing the shares of the Zuo Shipping Company to fall all the way. After several consecutive days of falling limits, trading finally came to a halt.

The elders of the various branches of the Xiao Clan continued to reduce their cooperation with the Zuo Clan and turned to cooperate with the Zhen Clan. This caused the Zuo Clan's shipping business to shrink continuously, to the point where there was practically no place for them to stand. All of this took less than half a year.

Xiao Yue felt that it was time to ask Zuo Qian about canceling the engagement again, so he once again stepped into the Zuo Clan's gate, but this time he was no longer as humble as he was when he last met.

Xiao Yue came to the Zuo Clan as a winner. He really wanted to know what Zuo Qian was thinking.

'"Mr. Zuo Qian, I'm sorry to disturb you again," Xiao Yue saw Zuo Qian looking at him with hatred as soon as he entered. "I hope you don't mind."

"Do you mind?" Zuo Qian knew that Xiao Yue was playing tricks on him, so he wanted to cancel the engagement. "Why would I mind? You're my daughter's fiance, so why would I mind if you came?"

'"I think you must know my purpose," Xiao Yue said straightforwardly, not wanting to circle around Zuo Gan too much. "I'm still here for the last time. I want to know if you've changed your mind and are willing to cancel the engagement between me and Zuo Yi."
