After a wealthy woman went bankrupt, her live-in husband became her sugar daddy.

Chapter 315 Deal with it carefully

Jiang Yichen snorted: "Don't think like that. We're husband and wife. We've been through so much together. Your problems are my problems. I'll protect you and make sure you don't get hurt at all."

I looked up at him and saw his serious expression. My heart warmed, and I couldn't help but kiss him: "Okay, let's do it together, who's afraid of who!"

Suddenly, his eyes turned sinister, and he said seriously, "Su Ming wants to cause trouble, we can't just sit here and wait to die. First, find those people in the Fan family who have been suppressed by Su Ming and are resentful, give them some benefits, and make them work for us to leak information."

"Make sure you take a few capable bodyguards with you when you go out. If Su Ming dares to make a move, we'll turn the tables and set a trap to lure him in. We'll also send people to investigate his business partners, find conflicts to add fuel to the fire, and make them fight amongst themselves."

“If he tries anything bad in business, we’ll team up with our competitors to suppress him. As for the Fan family, we’ll play it by ear and watch out for them stabbing us in the back.” With that, Jiang Yichen narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered, “If Su Ming dares to mess with you, I’ll make him pay a heavy price. However…” He changed the subject, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes, “I’m afraid Su Ming might have some other tricks up his sleeve that we don’t know about. We’ll have to be careful what we do next…”

“You’re right, Su Ming is no easy opponent.” I leaned on Jiang Yichen’s shoulder and whispered, “We can’t just sit here and wait to be killed; we have to take the initiative.”

Jiang Yichen patted my back gently, his tone firm: "Don't worry, with me here, Su Ming won't cause any trouble. However, we need to find out his background first, especially his relationship with the Fan family."

I nodded, my mind racing. "Sisi's side is already investigating, but Su Ming's background is too complicated, so they probably won't be able to find out much in a short time."

"Although the Fan family has kept a low profile in recent years, there must be a lot of internal conflicts. Especially after the death of Old Master Fan, the struggle between Fan Shuiguang and Su Ming has become fierce. We can use this to find a breakthrough."

"You mean... to sow discord?" I looked up at him hesitantly.

“Not entirely.” Jiang Yichen shook his head. “The Fan family was already divided, and we were just going with the flow. If we can find those in the Fan family who were suppressed by Su Ming and give them some support, we might be able to extract more useful information from them.”

I was silent for a moment, then realized Jiang Yichen's words made sense. "Okay, let's do it that way. But we need to be careful not to let Su Ming notice our actions."

"Don't worry, I'll arrange for someone to do it secretly." Jiang Yichen smiled, a hint of confidence in his eyes. "As for you, make sure to bring bodyguards when you go out recently, so that Su Ming doesn't have any opportunity to take advantage of you."

"I know." I nodded, but I still felt uneasy.

A few days later, Jiang Yichen's subordinates reported that many people within the Fan family were indeed dissatisfied with Su Ming, especially the long-time employees who had been highly valued by Old Master Fan. Some of them had lost their positions in the company due to Su Ming's suppression, and some had even been forced to resign.

“These people hate Su Ming to the core. If we can give them some support, they will definitely be willing to help us.” Jiang Yichen sat on the sofa, holding a list in his hand, his tone tinged with excitement.

I took the list and quickly glanced through it, noticing several familiar names. "These people... I remember they used to be high-ranking members of the Fan family. How did they end up like this?"

“After Su Ming took office, he began to purge Old Master Fan’s old subordinates.” Jiang Yichen sneered. “He not only suppressed these people, but also tried to take over their shares. These people had long hated him to the bone.”

I frowned, a mix of emotions swirling in my mind. "So how should we contact them? Wouldn't it be too risky to just walk right up to them?"

“We don’t need to get involved ourselves.” Jiang Yichen shook his head. “I’ve already arranged for someone to contact them. As long as we offer them some benefits, they will definitely be willing to cooperate.”

"Okay, then let's do it your way." I nodded, feeling a little more relaxed.

However, things didn't go as smoothly as we had imagined. Just as we were preparing to take action, Su Ming suddenly made his move.

That morning, I had just arrived at the office when I received a call from Xiaotian. "Sister Mo, something's happened! Fan Shuiguang's company has been exposed for financial fraud, its stock price has plummeted, and its cash flow has dried up!"

"What?!" I jumped to my feet, a wave of panic washing over me. "How could this happen?"

"I don't know, but the news has already spread." Little Sweetie's voice carried a hint of anxiety. "Now everyone is selling off Fan Shuiguang's stock. Her company probably won't last much longer."

I took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down. "Don't panic, we need to figure out what's going on."

"Fan Shuiguang sent me a message, but last time he gave me a list of a few 'stupid' sponsors. I gave him those lists before, how's the investigation going?"

"I'll send it to you in a bit. There's a lot of information here, and it's quite long. I can't explain it all in a short time."

Within two minutes, I received a message from Xu Sisi, but it was clear that these were not enough to support our future company goals.

I immediately contacted Jiang Yichen. After listening, he remained silent for a moment, then said coldly, "This must have been done by Su Ming. He's been eyeing Fan Shuiguang's company for a long time, and now he's finally made his move."

"What do we do then?" I asked in a low voice, feeling somewhat uneasy.

"Let's wait and see. Since Su Ming dared to do this, he must have made thorough preparations. We need to be careful and not give him any leverage."

Here, I met with Fan Shuiguang again. I gently rubbed my fingers on the rim of my teacup, trying to relax a little. The steam rose up, blurring Fan Shuiguang's face across from me, as if draping a veil over our tense atmosphere.

The aroma of tea wafted around us, but it couldn't mask the tension between us, like a taut string that would snap at the slightest touch.

Fan Shuiguang suddenly said, her voice as sharp as a knife chilled to the bone: "Su Ming... your investigation is quite good."

My fingers froze, spilling tea onto the table and instantly soaking my sleeve. I quickly looked up, staring sharply at her: "Actually..."

"He is my father's illegitimate son, my half-brother."

Fan Shuiguang spoke calmly, but I could tell she was suppressing her anger. "Twenty years ago, my father abandoned Su Ming's sister in an orphanage to cover up this shameful affair."

Upon hearing this, my pupils contracted sharply, and the image of Su Ming's sinister eyes immediately flashed into my mind.
