When Xie Nian returned after a phone call, Xie Chenchen had fallen asleep on the table, revealing the side view of his fair face. His features resembled Ruan Mu very much.

However, Ruan Xuantong did resemble Ruan Mu.

She laughed at herself. Ruan Mu was not hers. Who he was hanging out with had nothing to do with her. Besides, the father of her two children was just a dead hustler.

“Sister Nian, you’re finally back. If you hadn’t come back, Qing Yu would have been in chaos.”

Qiao Qiao was dressed up in a professional manner. She was capable and experienced in her work and was one of Xie Nian’s most capable subordinates. However, her baby voice was also one of her unique characteristics.

“Qiao Qiao, if you want to rest, just say it. You beating around the bush like this will make me feel embarrassed.”

Sister Nian, if you really feel embarrassed, at least blush. With such a calm expression, anyone who saw it would doubt the truthfulness of your words.

“Don’t follow up on the matters concerning Nian Cheng Corporation for the time being.”

“Sister Nian, are we terminating the contract? In that case, we will have to pay a huge sum of compensation for the breach of contract. It might exceed the budget.”

“Why should we terminate the contract? I just want to push back all the matters regarding our future collaboration. We’ll see how things go from there.”

Could it be that Sister Nian had heard something? Otherwise, why would she have postponed it at such a critical moment? Things might not be under their control anymore.

“Yes, Sister Nian.” Qiao Qiao handed a document to Xie Nian and said slowly, “Sister Nian, this is a proposal for collaboration from the Shen family. We have yet to give them an answer. What do you intend to—”

Xie Nian frowned slightly. These people from the Shen family were really bold. They actually dared to skirt the rules when some things were clearly prohibited. Although they could earn a lot of money, they had to be able to live to spend it.

“Reject the Shen family’s collaboration proposal. Qing Yu doesn’t need to skirt such rules.”

“Alright, Sister Nian. There’s a meeting at 10am later. The various departments will be giving a report of their work.”

Xie Nian nodded and looked at the message on her phone: “It’s done.”

Her lips curled into a smile. Xie Zhizhi, you have to hang in there. Otherwise, it won’t be fun anymore.

“President Ruan, this place was modified according to your request. The facilities in every room are very complete, there’s nothing—”

The hotel manager was covered in sweat. The Eldest Missy was in charge of the Ruan family’s business. Young Master Ruan usually wouldn’t come here for inspection. He didn’t expect Young Master Ruan to come personally this month.

Young Master Ruan was not an easy-going person. He just hoped that nothing bad would happen today, or they would all suffer.

“Help! Help! Get away from me! Oh, go away! Don’t touch me!”

A woman’s sharp voice came from the room beside them. The door that was about to open suddenly closed. The woman was in despair.

She was so close to being saved. Looking at the closed door, a drop of crystal-clear tear fell from the woman’s eyes. If only she hadn’t run out alone, she wouldn’t have encountered such a thing.

“Ruan, President Ruan, this, this is…”

The cold aura on Ruan Mu’s body became heavier and heavier. The surrounding temperature plummeted, and the group of people behind him broke out in cold sweat as they tried their best to reduce their presence.

“Hurry up and open the door. Are you going to wait until something happens before entering? When that happens will you guys be able to bear the responsibility, or will President Ruan have to bear the responsibility for you guys?”

Chen Hao berated them. All of them were so foolish. This was a great opportunity for them to display their capabilities, yet they didn’t know how to grasp it.

The moment they opened the door, they were greeted with the sight of a messy room. It was very different from the room they had seen just now. The spacious bed was even messier, and the mattress was hanging in mid-air, looking precarious.

“Save me.”

The woman sensed that someone had entered and reached out for help.

“Who are you people? Scram immediately! You disturbed me while I was having a good time. I will make you suffer the consequences!”

The man did not turn around as he was focused on his actions. His broad body blocked everyone’s vision, making it impossible to see the woman’s appearance.

“This is the young master of the Ruan family of Jiang Capital. This place is run by the Ruan family. Do you think he has the right to manage this situation?”

When the man heard this, he stopped what he was doing and said with a fawning expression, “So this is the young master of the Ruan family. Isn’t this a friendly fire? We’re all on the same side..”
