The Zhang Family on the Brink of Collapse

Peng Huijing, who had been sobbing from grievance, suddenly froze. The blood in her veins seemed to freeze as well. She had no idea how much of her actions Grandpa Zhang knew, so she could only brace herself and say, "I have never asked anyone for help, nor have I ever used Zhang family's power."

"Really?" Grandpa Zhang's fingers bent slightly, tapping lightly on the armrest of the sofa.

Although Peng Huijing felt so embarrassed she couldn't even lift her head, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. These things, though not trivial, weren't enormous either. If Grandpa Zhang chose to press her on it, it wouldn't have much impact on her.

"Dad, I admit that their promotions definitely had something to do with the Zhang family, but I never asked them for anything. Not even after the fact did I give them any benefits," Peng Huijing said with a tone full of grievance.
