My mother-in-law is remarrying and wants my family's assets as dowry. Die!

Mr. Zhu, an elderly man, spoke in an icy tone: "Li Dong, you want to raise the price on the spot? Do you know what price you'll pay for such greed? I'll provide you with targets, intelligence, and plans. A reward of 5000 million is enough for you to live a carefree life. You can't be too greedy!"

Li Dong sneered, unmoved: "President Zhu, don't get so agitated. I'm not greedy. I've learned about the value of Fengshu Technology's shares these past few days. Those 30% stakes are worth at least 600 million, but I only want 100 million. President Zhou, you should also consider this. I'm the most crucial part of the whole plan; my sacrifice is significant!"

"What sacrifice can a mere duck like you make?" President Zhu retorted angrily.

"How could I not have made sacrifices?" Li Dong's tone turned aggrieved. "I spend every day with an old woman who can't hide her age no matter how much perfume she wears, and I have to spend at least three months with her, and I have to find ways to make her happy every day. You tell me I haven't made sacrifices?"

"But that's what you used to do!" President Zhu clearly disagreed.

"President Zhu, if you don't agree, then I'll have no choice but to terminate our cooperation!" Li Dong issued his ultimatum.

"Fine!" President Zhu was amused and annoyed. "You're thinking of taking all 30% of the shares for yourself? Don't you even take a good look at yourself? What use would Fengshu Technology be to you? It's worthless. Do you even have a business mind or business acumen?"

"President Zhu, I certainly don't have any business acumen or talent, but I'm full of cunning. I can sell my shares to other big bosses who want them. Fengshu Technology has a lot of advanced technology!" Li Dong retorted without backing down.

After a full three minutes of silence, President Zhu spoke again: "One hundred million it is, but if you dare to raise the price again, I'll take your life!"

After Mr. Zhu finished speaking, he ended the call.

A smug smile appeared on Li Dong's face. After this job, I'll be a billionaire!

night.

When Lin Jun returned home, he saw that his wife, Yu He, had prepared a sumptuous dinner.

He noticed a hint of apology in the smile on his wife's face.

He felt his heart skip a beat, and a sense of powerlessness washed over him, as if his soul had been emptied out in an instant.

Lin Jun knows his wife very well; she's determined to continue siding with her mother!

Lin Jun barely managed to stand by supporting himself on the table with his hands!

He really couldn't understand his wife anymore. He had already shown her all the evidence that Li Dong was a fraud, but why was she still siding with her mother?

Has she really lost her mind?

Disappointed!

Endless disappointment, like waves crashing against Lin Jun's already utterly despondent heart, relentlessly battered him.

And he had never wanted to leave this house like this before!

Yu He tried to keep a smile as she walked over: "Honey, let's have dinner together!"

Lin Jun didn't answer Yu He directly, but instead asked, "Why?"

Yu He bit her lip tightly and remained silent.

Lin Jun suddenly grabbed her shoulders tightly with both hands and angrily questioned, "Why? I've done everything I could. I've proven to you that Li Dong is a liar, a conman who preys on rich women, so why are you still supporting their unreasonable demands?"

Yu He's body was shaken violently, and her hair was disheveled.

"You've really disappointed me!" Lin Jun's voice was filled with deep disappointment. "Is it impossible for me to win you back no matter what I do?"

After Lin Jun finished speaking, he released Yu He, who staggered back several steps and almost fell to the ground.

She struggled to steady herself, large tears welling in her eyes.

Lin Jun stared intently at her, wanting to know why she couldn't stand on his side.

Yu He cried and tried to throw herself into Lin Jun's arms, but Lin Jun dodged her.

Yu He turned to Lin Jun in disappointment and cried, "Husband, I'm so sorry. I know Li Dong is a liar. I wanted to talk to Mom about it, but I never expected that she was pregnant with Li Dong's child. Mom is an older mother, and she can't take any stress. Otherwise, it could very well be a tragedy for both of them. I can't lose Mom..."

Lin Jun felt a sudden dizziness; how could this be!

"Honey, I know you're very disappointed in me, but I've already explained things to Mom and Li Dong. I'm just transferring the shares to Mom's name!" Yu He's tone gradually became firm. "They assured me they would absolutely not interfere with the company's operations and management, they'd only take dividends and wouldn't do anything else! Honey, please believe me this once. Mom won't lie to me. She said she just wants to give the baby in my belly a certain future!"

Lin Jun shook his head and sighed, "Xiao He, how could you be so foolish? Under normal circumstances, I could believe their promises, but what credibility can a liar's promise have? Besides, human desires keep expanding step by step. Furthermore, you said your mother is pregnant, have you really confirmed it?"

"I..." Yu He suddenly realized that she really hadn't confirmed it.

She trembled as she took out her phone and dialed her mother's number.

"Mom, are you really pregnant?" Yu He asked as soon as the call connected.

"Of course I'm pregnant, Mom. Why would I lie to you about this? Did your husband say something to you that made you waver again? Silly daughter, you should be firm! If you keep wavering like this, you will eventually lose everything. You will lose not only your husband but also your mother!" Yu Qingqiu shouted.

"Mom, I need to see your pregnancy test results. I'll go to the hospital with you for the check-up tomorrow!" Yu He said and then ended the call.

Then she looked at her husband: "Honey, if Mom dares to lie and say I'm not pregnant, I'll stand firmly by your side! And from now on, neither my mom nor Li Dong will get a single penny from us!"

Lin Jun then walked up to Yu He and pulled her into his arms: "Wife, I hope you can cherish our relationship of so many years. We already have our own little family, and we can't kill the goose that lays the golden eggs to satisfy all your mother's unreasonable demands! If your mother really wants to give her unborn child a safe haven, I can promise her that if she really gets pregnant and successfully delivers the child, I can cover all the expenses for the child's upbringing, including the costs of marriage and childbirth, okay?"

Yu He burst into tears.

No matter what, she was deeply moved that her husband had truly been devoted to her.

"In addition to the villa worth 800 million that I was willing to give to your mother as a bride price, I will give her another 1000 million as a bride price. How about that?" Lin Jun further increased the offer.
