Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!-Chapter 550 No One Will Forgive a Traitor
Xu Yang took the opportunity to ask, "What’s the matter?"
It was expected that Wang Xiaocong would have something to discuss.
Otherwise, Wang Xiaocong wouldn’t bother calling just for fun.
Wang Xiaocong said, "You must have heard of the Splendor Night, right?"
Xu Yang shook his head and said, "No, what is it for?"
Wang Xiaocong explained, "It’s a charity gala. Many business moguls and popular celebrities from the film and television industry will attend. There will be a charity auction, and it’s also a platform for expanding one’s social network. Of course, it’s also a platform for many people to show off."
Xu Yang asked, "Then what?"
Wang Xiaocong said, "Of course, it’s to invite you to attend. You’re now a rising star in the business world and a potential candidate for the position of the wealthiest person. Moreover, you’ve invested in two movies and are also a shareholder of Wan Da Film and Television, so you count as part of the film industry. From any angle, you can’t miss this event!"
Xu Yang asked, "When and where will it be held?"
Wang Xiaocong replied, "It will be held on the first of next month on Riyue Island."
Xu Yang thought for a moment and said, "Alright, I’ll take my wife to attend."
He had previously attended charity gatherings held by the heirs of wealthy families and prestigious clans in the provincial city.
He had never attended the kind of charity gala that Wang Xiaocong mentioned, and thought it would be good to experience it with his wife.
As his worth increased, such events would likely become common for him.
Wang Xiaocong said, "Great, we’ll attend together then!"

...
Capital city.
Bai Family Group.
Bai Kunyu came to the office in high spirits.
He was still unaware that Shen Pingkang had been released and Chen Wenbin had left.
Just as he was about to give an order to Chen Wenbin over the phone, his own phone started ringing first.
Bai Kunyu glanced at the caller ID and saw it was a local, unfamiliar phone number.
Frowning, he still chose to answer.
Immediately, a sweet female voice came through, "Hello, may I speak to Mr. Bai Kunyu?"
Bai Kunyu said, "Yes, that’s me. Who is this?"
The woman said, "Hello Mr. Bai, I’m a customer service representative from the Bank of Commerce. The collateral for a loan you have with our bank is suspected of multiple mortgaging, which constitutes an illegal loan. Please repay the loan within twenty-four hours. If you have any questions, you may call our customer service line. Thank you for your cooperation.
Goodbye!"
With that, the call was ended.
Bai Kunyu stood frozen, his face full of confusion.
When had he taken out a mortgage loan?
And a loan involving collateral that was mortgaged multiple times at that.
There was simply no such thing.
He didn’t need to take out a mortgage loan to borrow money.
Only if there was an immediate need for a large amount of cash in a short period would a mortgage loan be necessary.
Otherwise, with the Bai Family’s credit, borrowing a few tens of billions from the bank didn’t require any collateral.
What on earth was going on?
Before he could figure it out, his phone rang again.
After picking up, the person on the other end was from another bank, saying something similar to what the previous caller had said.
They stated that his multiple mortgaged loans at the bank were illegal and demanded repayment within twenty-four hours.
After the call, they hung up abruptly.
Although Bai Kunyu couldn’t make sense of the situation, he knew something was wrong.
He quickly called out towards the door, "Someone come."
After a shout, the phone rang once more.
He didn’t pick up but pressed mute instead.
Because he knew, it was likely another call from the banks.
Soon his third assistant immediately walked in.
Bai Kunyu spoke in a deep voice, "Check our assets and liabilities right away, especially to find out who has taken out illegal loans from the bank through multiple mortgage frauds!"
"Yes," the third assistant responded and immediately set about the task.
Bai Kunyu had many assets in his name, and sorting them out was somewhat troublesome.
But his subordinates were all elite and efficient, so the investigation proceeded quickly.
In half an hour, the third assistant obtained the results and was shocked.
Because the results showed that the number of assets under Bai Kunyu’s name had increased substantially.
Logically, this should be good news, who would complain about having more assets?
But these were all distressed assets.
Rather than enjoying the benefits of the assets, Bai Kunyu instead found himself saddled with a debt of eighty billion!
The third assistant didn’t dare delay and immediately ran to Bai Kunyu’s office to report the situation.
When Bai Kunyu heard the news, he was also astonished.
As he looked over the names of those assets, his face immediately darkened.
These assets were the river salvage, the restructuring of Jiang City’s old district, and Pioneer Culture.
Now, he finally understood what was going on.
He immediately dialed Chen Wenbin’s phone number.
But Chen Wenbin’s mobile phone was already switched off.
He didn’t know that Chen Wenbin and his wife and child were already on a plane heading for the beautiful country.
Bai Kunyu could only dial the landline of the team’s temporary office.
Soon, the call was connected.
Before the other person could speak, Bai Kunyu began to demand, "Chen Wenbin, what the hell is going on? Why is your mobile phone switched off? Don’t you know that your phone should be available twenty-four hours a day?"
A voice came through the phone, "Young Master Bai, Chen Wenbin has already left, and I am currently leading the team."
Bai Kunyu recognized it as Shen Pingkang’s voice and was momentarily stunned, "Shen Pingkang, you’re out?"
After speaking, he quickly figured out what was happening.
Shen Pingkang had been set up by Xu Yang and ended up in jail; he hadn’t rescued Shen Pingkang, so for Shen Pingkang to be out, it could only mean he had reached some sort of agreement with Xu Yang.

Only then could Shen Pingkang be free.
Plainly put, Shen Pingkang had betrayed him.
But he really didn’t understand how Shen Pingkang could betray him.
Was it just because he hadn’t rescued him?
Little did Bai Kunyu know, the conflict between Shen Pingkang and Chen Wenbin had escalated to a life-or-death situation, and if it weren’t for Xu Yang, Shen Pingkang would already be dead!
After a moment of silence, Bai Kunyu said sternly, "Shen Pingkang, you should be clear about how I’ve treated you. Have I ever treated you unfairly while you’ve worked for me?"
Shen Pingkang replied, "No."
Bai Kunyu continued, "That’s good to hear. I don’t care what benefits Xu Yang has offered you, I just want to say that whatever he’s giving you, I can give it to you too. As long as you come back to me, I will still value you just as I did before!"
Shen Pingkang’s face showed bitterness, "I’m sorry, Young Master Bai, but I can’t turn back now."
Bai Kunyu frowned, "Why can’t you? I’ve already said I won’t hold you accountable, and will continue to use you just as before!"
Shen Pingkang said, "Young Master Bai, I understand your character. You can’t possibly forgive me. No one would ever forgive a betrayer."
After saying this, Shen Pingkang hung up the phone.
"Bastard!"
Furious, Bai Kunyu’s face turned steely blue, and he smashed a vase in his office worth over a million.
He truly didn’t intend to forgive Shen Pingkang. His claim that he wouldn’t pursue Shen Pingkang’s responsibility and would continue to rely on him as before was just to stabilize Shen Pingkang and minimize losses, to extricate himself from this situation and to settle the score with Shen Pingkang afterwards.
It could be said that from the moment Shen Pingkang betrayed him, Shen Pingkang was finished.
Shen Pingkang was right, no one forgives a betrayer.
Just then, the door to the office was pushed open and several police officers walked in.
