Chapter 550 You Still Have Me
"Mu-Cheng, Mu-Cheng, don''t..." Han Li was still yelling into the phone but there was no response. All
she got was the dead tone of the phone.
"This stupid little girl, she will be the death of me! Fine! Get lost then! All of you can go! Daughters
really don''t side the family anymore after they grow up!"
Han Li''s face was all red from anger.
She thought that once Qiu Mu-Cheng heard that her mother had been bullied by Ye Fan, she would
definitely scold Ye Fan angrily as well.
But Qiu Mu-Cheng didn''t believe her and even spoke up for Ye Fan. And now they wanted to move
out?
What was this husband and wife up to?
Were they ganging up to rebel against her?
Han Li was so angry that smoke wasing out from her nostrils.
But she could hardly me anyone else.
She was getting her just desserts.
Han Li was the one who had been yelling at Ye Fan non-stop for three years and Ye Fan had never
Now that Han Li was suddenly saying that Ye Fan wanted to beat her up, there was no way Qiu Mu-
Cheng would believe that.
But Qiu Mu-Cheng really wasn''t in the mood to bother about this right now.
Qiu Mu-Cheng was now in a safety helmet at one of the worksites belonging to Mufan Real Estate and
trying to understand the situation with Su Qian and some others.
"Miss Qiu, it''s really impossible for us to continue working. Someonees every two to three days to
make trouble, and today, a few drunkards beat up my workers. Miss Qiu, yourpany must have
offended someone, right? If it''s just one time, it''s not so bad. But it''s happened so many times now! We
really don''t dare to continue the work. Today we might have been slightly injured, but someone might
lose their life tomorrow!" pleaded the contractor as he clutched his freshly bandaged wounds.
"Mr Sun, the project is only halfway through, so how could you just quit? Who would be able to pick up
the pieces? The other party is also hurrying us. If the work here is dyed, then it''s hard for our
best to persuade the contractor.
Su Qian had called her in the morning to tell her that someone was making trouble at the worksite.
Qiu Mu-Cheng immediately rushed over.
But damage had already been done.
The contractor was already too frightened to keep working with Mufan Real Estate.
Mufan Real Estate didn''t have many workers of their own and needed to work with other contractors to
If this contractor left, then there would be several other projects that would be dyed.
"Miss Qiu, I''m really sorry, I really am. But this is not a matter of money. I think you''d better quickly find
someone else.” The contractor shook his head and left with his workers.
He didn''t even want the money for the past few days of work.
It was clear that they had really been badly frightened.
"Mu-Cheng, it''s hard to me them. After all, someone keeps making trouble every other day and they
even got hurt today. Many of them are the sole breadwinner of their families, so they''d rather earn less
than to take such a risky job," said Su Qian.
Qiu Mu-Cheng didn''t reply and just frowned. After a long time, she asked Su
Qian, "Qianqian, have you checked on who were the ones who came to make trouble today?"
Su Qian shook her head. "The police said that it was just a bunch of drunkards who happened to enter
our worksite and didn''t do this on purpose."
"Tsk," Qiu Mu-Cheng scoffed self-deprecatingly. "So it''s yet another coincidence?"
"In less than a month, more than ten simr incidents have urred. We''ve lost so many contractors
already, and each time, it turns out to be a coincidence? Qianqian, would you believe that?"
Qiu Mu-Cheng''s words were cold and her beautiful face was covered with mocking and self-
deprecation.
Su Qian fell silent.
She and Qiu Mu-Cheng both knew who was behind this.
But what could they do about it?
The Qiu family was now tied to Shuntian Group, and Qiushui Logistics was still backed by Hongqi
Group.
The Qiu family wasn''t powerful, but Shuntian Industries and Hongqi Group were.
Hongqi Group''s main line of business wasn''t in real estate, so they didn''t sh head on with Mufan
Real Estate.
But Shuntian Industries was in real estate from the very beginning.
On top of that, Qiu Mu-Qi had been making things worse, and there was that conflict over that piece of
enemies.
"Shuntian Industries has a powerful backer, and they had already reached an agreement with the
authorities from the day they stepped into Yunzhou. As long as they don''t go overboard, the authorities
aren''t going to offend a powerful corporation for the sake of our tinypany. So Mu-Cheng, I don''t
think it''s possible to resolve this through the proper channels."
"Tell you what, I''ll go back and talk to my dad and see if he can talk to Shuntian Industries. We can

even pay them some money, as long as they let us off and stop attacking Mufan Real Estate," said Su
Qian with a sigh.
But it was obvious from her tone of voice that Su Qian wasn''t confident that this method would work
either.
"No need."
Su Qian was surprised that Qiu Mu-Cheng turned her down.
"Mu-Cheng, what do you intend to do? If we don''t resolve our issue with Shuntian Group, we can''t even
continue doing business," said Su Qian worriedly.
Qiu Mu-Chengughed bitterly. "They''ve been using all these underhanded means so that I would give
in and give them that piece ofnd, right? Fine, I lose. I''m just a weak woman and I can''t fight them.
They''ve won and I''m willing to give them that piece ofnd. Qianqian, give Qiu Mu-Qi a call. Tell them
toe with the contract at noontime and I''ll let them have thend."
After many days of holding her ground, Qiu Mu-Cheng finally caved in.
Her eyes were red but she continued to smile sadly.
"Mu-Cheng, are you nuts? Are you really going to sell thend at a low price to them? We''ll lose $200
million this way. Even though this money was a loan from the bank, we still have to pay the bank back!"
Su Qian tried to persuade her otherwise.
Qiu Mu-Cheng continued to smile and her eyes were filled with disappointment and sadness.
"What else can I do? Qianqian, do we still have another option besides giving in? They''re a billion
dor corporation with a huge backer. They''ve already reached an agreement with the authorities and
they have people in Yunzhou and even Jianghai to help them with the legal side of things. Our
"There''s no way we canpete with them. We lose in terms of our background, our connections and
our finances. What else can we use topete with them? Our husbands?" Qiu Mu-Chengughed
sadly and sounded so dejected.
Qiu Mu-Cheng finally realized that life could be so tough and cruel.
"When an ant meets an elephant, there''s nothing else it can do but to give in." Her sadughter
echoed.
But the biting wind made the yellow leaves at her feet fly up.
"No, you still have me.”
Huuu...
The cold wind swept past as a low voice suddenly rang out.
