Everything was developing for the better.
Fu Yun thought that since it was her first year in the capital, she had to make it lively. She even asked Wen Wen to plan how to spend the New Year this year.
Wen Wen was very interested in this. She wrote down her plans excitedly every day. When she suddenly remembered one day, she added to her notebook and made sure to do everything she could think of.
Fu Yun was busy for a period of time. Suddenly, she realized that Fang Xue and Chang Zhuyou, who lived here, only appeared once. After that, they did not appear in front of Fu Yun again. She felt that it was strange. This was not their style.
Fu Yun was already prepared for them to appear in front of her from time to time.
However, it was a good thing that they did not appear.
It was not that Fang Xue did not want to look for Fu Yun and the others. It was that she could not even protect herself.
The Chang family's company had been besieged recently. Whenever there was a problem with the company, it would be exposed.
Usually, companies would have these problems. If they were not targeted or not exposed, as long as they did not go overboard, the higher-ups would turn a blind eye.
However, the higher-ups suddenly started a strict investigation. With so many subsidiaries and holding companies in trouble, if they still did not know that they were being targeted, then they were really stupid.
When it rains, it pours. Just as they were busy dealing with it, many projects were snatched away … It was not exactly snatched. It was just that they had prepared for a long time and were confident that they would win the projects. However, in the end, they missed the opportunity.
There were also many big customers and suppliers who terminated their contracts …
The huge Chang family was in a huge crisis.
Chang Zhuyou left early and returned late every day. He looked tired and had dark circles under his eyes. It was obvious that he had not rested well for a long time. In the beginning, he could still insist on coming back every day to see Fang Xue and talk to her. Later on, he came back every two to three days. Later on, he just stayed in the office.
At first, Fang Xue did not take the Chang family's small problems to heart. She thought that it would be solved just like last time.
In Fang Xue's heart, the Chang Clan was an unshakeable giant. They were even more powerful than the Fu Clan. She only had Chang Zhuyou left. She had to have him under her control.
However, he did not expect that the situation this time was more serious than before. It was so serious that he could go bankrupt at any time.
Fang Xue turned off the TV with an ugly expression. She touched her bulging belly. She was already more than seven months pregnant.
She wanted to be the mistress of the Chang family. She couldn't let herself give birth to another daughter without knowing the truth.
However, if the Chang family were to go bankrupt, then all of her plans would be for naught.
It couldn't be. How could an aristocratic family like the Chang family fall just like that? Fang Xue thought a lot of things at that moment. She even thought that the Chang family was setting up a trap to create an atmosphere of imminent bankruptcy so that she would want to retreat and abandon Chang Zhuyou.
Because of this, Chang Zhuyou saw clearly that she despised the poor and loved the rich, and did not love him at all. This made him completely disappointed in her.
If Fang Xue thought to herself, she would never be fooled. She would never give up the identity of Madame Chang that was already in her hands.
The door opened with a click. Chang Zhuyou walked in with a tired face.
He must have not rested well for a few days. The suit he was wearing was wrinkled.
Fang Xue walked over with one hand on her waist and the other hand on her belly. She looked worried when she saw Chang Zhuyou.
"Brother Chang …"
When Chang Zhuyou saw Fang Xue, he hurried over to support her. "Why did you come out?"
"Brother Chang, I was worried about you." Fang Xue followed Chang Zhuyou and walked back slowly. She frowned and said, "You haven't been home for a long time. I couldn't sleep well at night. I dreamed that something happened to you …"
Chang Zhuyou hurriedly said gently, "I'm fine. I'm just a little busy with the company."
Fang Xue sat down on the sofa with his help. "You have to take good care of yourself. The child and I are very worried about you."
Chang Zhuyou rubbed Fang Xueruo's belly and agreed.
Fang Xue held Chang Zhuyou's hand and asked with concern, "Brother Chang, tell me honestly. Is the company in a bad situation …"
"I saw on the news that …"
"Xue 'er, don't worry. This is only temporary. I won't let you and your daughter suffer …"
"I still have some savings. It may not be of much help, but it's still a small token of my appreciation …"
Chang Zhuyou's voice became even gentler. "How can I take your money? Don't worry. It will be over soon."
Fang Xue saw that he was determined not to take it. She frowned and said, "If only I were a good match for you. Then I could help you …"
As Fang Xueruo spoke, tears welled up in her eyes. She bit her lip and said, "Brother Chang, why don't you listen to Uncle and Auntie's arrangement and marry a lady of equal social status?"
"I don't care … as long as you … are fine …" Before Fang Xue could finish her sentence, Chang Zhuyou hugged her with a heartbroken expression.
"Don't talk nonsense. I only want you. Those people are just adding insult to injury. When the Chang family recovers, none of them will be able to escape!"
Anger flashed in Chang Zhuyou's eyes. He had not been having a good time recently. He had been running around looking for partners for the company.
Bad news about the company had spread and caused panic. The company's stock price had fallen continuously, and tens of billions of yuan had disappeared.
Many people who had offended the Chang family and looked down on them had come to step on them.
Chang Zhuyou had not thought much of it before. The business world was like a battlefield. They were not as powerful as the Chang family, so they could only accept it when the Chang family took the cake.
He did not expect that those small companies who had once trembled in fear under the Chang family would dare to step on them. The ants that the Chang Family had once looked down on had been twisted into a rope and bitten the Chang Family until it hurt.
There were also those who had jumped ship when the Chang family was in trouble …
Chang Zhuyou made a mental note of them. When this crisis was over, he would deal with them one by one.
They had probably forgotten the consequences of offending the Chang family.
"When this is over, we will hold a wedding of the century and let the whole world know that you are the woman that I, Chang Zhuyou, cherish."
Fang Xue smiled through her tears. "Of course I believe in you, Brother Chang."
Suddenly, she seemed to have made up her mind. "Brother Chang, let's get married!"
Chang Zhuyou was stunned. He stared blankly at Fang Xue.
Fang Xue held his hand and looked at Chang Zhuyou with bright eyes. "It's okay even if the Chang family can't get over this. I'm willing to suffer with you."
"I love you. Whether we are rich or poor, I want to be with you."
This was the first time in many years that Chang Zhuyou had heard such a straightforward confession from Fang Xue.
His breathing quickened. After a long while, he hugged Fang Xue excitedly. "Did I hear wrongly? Xue 'er, you have finally agreed to marry me! "
