Sugar And Spice: The CEO’s Feisty Wife Chapter 346
Advertisement
Feng Xinying's movie was going full house for almost a week. People were going crazy about the whole drama. The historical setting was extremely interesting and the buzz was that the movie was going to get nominated for many awards. Lu Dao was extremely happy. It had been more than a month now and although the movie was being pulled down from many theaters, just according to Xie Yuansheng's wishes, the movie continued to play in the theaters of The Golden City.
Feng Xinying had started going to the office on a regular basis. She was seeing all the projects on a personal basis everyday and employees had become very cautious. Feng Xinying's talent and sharpness was beyond comprehension. It was impossible for anyone to go undetected if there was even the slightest of issues from their side. She was a perfectionist and according to some, she was far more intelligent than her father.
While she was working non-stop in her company, Xie Shengjun had been taking care of the Crocodile Organization and Keira's pregnancy as growing. She was six months pregnant now and she was not allowed to travel anywhere by Xie Shengjun.

The man on the headphones had been trying to catch one conversation that he could use against Feng Xinying or take advantage of the same in order to tell it to the boss, but he wasn't able to get anything except silence. It was because everyday, only Xie Yuansheng was there on the bed, lying quietly, while Feng Xinying used to go to the office and during the evening when she would come back, the head of the security would give her the ant-kind looking bug to hit it with a hammer. Over the past few days, it had become a ritual.

He was getting frustrated.

The days were getting chilly and on one such day, a call came to Feng Xinying. It was Jiao Long and she was panicky, "Ying'er, two of our ships have become targets of the pirates. While they were crossing the Pacific Ocean, just near South Africa, the pirates attacked them. Those pirates were equipped with modern ammunition and they attacked our ships." Saying that Jiao Long started crying.
"Oh! Auntie, this is very unfortunate. Can I help you in any way? Were the ships insured?" she asked.
"The ships were insured at ninety million dollars. We hope to get that insurance and cover the losses," she cried.
"Okay… that would be nice auntie…" she replied. "Let me know if you need any help…"
"Yes, Ying'er…" said Jiao Long. "I won't be able to meet you for a few days and if there is a board meeting, I won't be able to attend those too."
"Sure auntie. Please don't worry and take care of that issue first," replied Feng Xinying assuring her.
Both Jiao Long and Shu Jing Min were too shocked when they heard the news that their ships had been attacked by pirates and were sunk with the entire cargo in the deep sea. It was simply unbelievable. Even though they would get the insurance money, it was a matter of trust. Their business would get affected because other businesses would think twice before sending their cargo with their shipping company.
The investigation was carried out and the insurance money was about to be handed over, when a shocking fact came out. The owners sank the ships on purpose in order to collect ninety million insurance payout.
Shu Jing Min vehemently denied this criminal charge. He said that they had been in business for so long. Why would he even get into something like that? His company had been successfully running the operations from over thirty years and why would they jeopardize their own image in such a ghastly manner?

However, there was a very concrete evidence. A few days back, the so-called pirates were no one other than the coast guards. They were bribed to pose as security contractors. As security contractors, they boarded the ship and somehow sneaked in the fuel purifier rooms of both the ships and planted explosive devices there. When the ships started sailing, nothing happened. The bombs were on a timer and had to explode after two days when they were near the South Africa coast. As soon as they touched the water near South Africa, the bombs exploded. The blast started a fire that spread to the engine room and then eventually all over the ship.
Once the ship was on fire, these so-called security guards exited the ship. A navy ship was sent to assess the scene, but the ships were declared to be sunk.
The actions of these guards were caught on the camera, however, the guards themselves were nowhere to be found. The police launched a massive manhunt to catch those assailants. They were eventually caught within a week's time. When they were caught, they revealed that it was Shu Jing Min who had bribed them to sink his ships.
Shu Jing Min was extremely furious. He vehemently denied charges that he had done anything regarding this but the evidence was so strong that he couldn't refute. He employed lawyers also, but they couldn't help much.
The insurance money couldn't be paid to him. So in the end, not only two of his ships had disappeared somewhere deep inside the ocean, he didn't even get his insurance money.
It was a huge jolt for him. A few days later a much larger shock was awaiting him. He was asked by the government to stop operating all shipping business.
Jiao Long and Shu Jing Min were deeply shocked. The only person who could actually help them out of this mess was Feng Xinying. They went to meet her.
She was wiping Xie Yuansheng's forehead with lavender wet-wipe. His wound had completely healed. There was a smile on her face as she looked tenderly at him. Suddenly there was a knock on the door and she turned to look who had come. Her smile became broader, "Auntie! How are you?" she asked with a lot of affection.
"Feng Xinying, we are in a mess regarding this shipping cargo!" said Shu Jing Min in a sad voice.
"Oh! What happened?" she asked with politeness and concern. She held Jiao Long's hand and made her sit on the sofa.
Shu Jing Min narrated the entire story to her without leaving details. "You have to help us out."
"How can I help you uncle?" she asked.
