Ning Nanxue raised her eyebrows: "How long?"

"At least two weeks." Jiang Tingchen handed over a report. "He operated through five different offshore companies, trying to conceal it from market regulators. If it weren't for me..."

He stopped talking in time and did not reveal his identity as the prince of Huayun Group.

As night falls, the city lights come on one after another.

Ning Nanxue stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the city that never sleeps.

The lights intertwined into a web, just like the tangled thoughts in her mind.

"They plan to change the board structure before Louis arrives." Jiang Tingchen walked behind her, but did not touch her rashly. "Xu Zhao may have other capital support behind him."

Ning Nanxue turned around, and the moonlight outlined her elegant silhouette.

"I won't give in anymore, for Sui Sui and for myself." She said softly, her tone firm and calm.

Jiang Tingchen took a step forward and held her hand gently but firmly: "I will always stand by you, Xue'er."

There was a reassuring warmth in his palm, and Ning Nanxue silently returned the handshake.

The next morning, in the conference room of Fu Group headquarters.

"Good morning, everyone." Ning Nanxue stood in front of the projection screen, dressed in a neatly tailored white suit. "I'm pleased to announce that Greenlight Technology and I have reached a strategic cooperation agreement. Mr. Louis will personally visit us next week to sign the contract."

She pressed the remote control, and the details of the cooperation and the expected benefits appeared on the screen.

The astonishing numbers instantly made the conference room boil.

"This cooperation is worth over 10 billion yuan and will provide key technical support for Fu's expansion into the Asian new energy market."

The directors chattered among themselves, their excitement evident in their words, while the senior executives eagerly flipped through documents, and discussions erupted one after another.

Only Fu Chen sat upright with his facial muscles tense.

When the meeting was over, Ning Nanxue deliberately slowed down her pace and passed Fu Chen at the door.

"Even in the afterlife, I will never forgive your ruthlessness and betrayal." She whispered and left without looking back.

Fu Chen froze in place, veins bulging on his arms and his breathing becoming rapid.

After a while, he turned and walked towards the elevator and dialed a number.

"Azhao, plan ahead."

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Secretary Chen hurried in, with beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Boss Ning, this is bad. Xu Zhiru has already started contacting key clients under the guise of 'Future CEO's Wife.' She even attended a product development meeting this morning and questioned several key decisions."

"What customer files did she access?" Ning Nanxue asked, tapping her fingers on the table.

"The top ten clients in the Asia-Pacific region include the Sugita Group."

Ning Nanxue and Jiang Tingchen exchanged a glance, their understanding tacitly understood. Sugita Group was an important partner of Greenlight Technology in Asia.

"Tingchen," Ning Nanxue turned to Jiang Tingchen, her tone calm but resolute, "It's time for Louis to visit in advance. I want to strike first before Fu Chen counterattacks."

She picked up the phone and made an international call.

On the other end of the phone was the key person who would decide the fate of the Fu family.

After listening to Ning Nanxue's request, Louis tapped his fingers on the wooden tabletop. "Advance visit?" His slightly hoarse voice came through the microphone. "That's an interesting suggestion."

"The cooperation between Greenlight Technology and Fu Group will change the entire Asian new energy market landscape." Ning Nanxue spoke in a steady tone, concealing her inner urgency. "Our team is fully prepared and welcomes you at any time."

Jiang Tingchen stood behind Ning Nanxue with his hands on her shoulders.

Louis pondered for a moment: "I can adjust the schedule, but there is a condition - I need to visit all of your company's core R&D facilities and production lines."

This request made Ning Nanxue's heart tighten.

The access to the core area is currently still in Fu Chen's hands, which means that she must confront Fu Chen head-on and ask him to accompany her on the tour.

"Of course, Mr. Louis." Her tone remained calm. "I will personally arrange the best tour plan for you."

After hanging up the phone, Ning Nanxue leaned back in her chair and let out a long breath.

Jiang Tingchen poured her a glass of warm water: "The core area requires Fu Chen's authorization."

"I will convene an emergency board meeting." Ning Nanxue took the water cup, and her fingertips accidentally touched Jiang Tingchen. The fleeting touch seemed to carry an electric current. "Let all directors understand the importance of Louis' cooperation in advance, and Fu Chen will not be able to obstruct it."

Ning Nanxue hardly slept for the next two days.

Together with Jiang Tingchen, she carefully prepared a detailed data analysis and business plan. Behind every chart and every number were countless all-nighters of hard work.

"Xue'er, take a break." Jiang Tingchen placed a cup of steaming coffee in front of her and gently stroked the area under her eyes, which were red with fatigue. "You'll collapse if you keep going like this."

Ning Nanxue grasped his wrist. "There are still a few pages of financial forecasts that need to be finalized. If Louis comes to visit, Fu Chen will definitely do everything in his power to stop him."

"I understand." Jiang Tingchen leaned over and gently placed his lips on her forehead. "But you also need to stay in the best condition to face the challenges ahead."

The day before the board meeting, Ning Nanxue walked out of the elevator and heard a familiar smell of perfume coming towards her.

"Mr. Ning, what a coincidence." Xu Zhiru stood at the corner of the corridor. Her light purple suit highlighted her slender waist, and the diamond bracelet on her wrist sparkled brightly under the light.

Ning Nanxue stopped and kept a proper distance: "Miss Xu, is there anything wrong?"

"I heard Louis is coming to visit early for a cooperation project with Green Light Technology." Xu Zhiru played with her ring, her tone gentle but threatening. "Azhao's network of contacts abroad is not simple. Many of his friends are among Green Light Technology's competitors."

Ning Nanxue's breathing remained steady: "Miss Xu is really well-informed."

Xu Zhiru took a step closer, the scent of perfume becoming stronger. "I just want to remind President Ning that some collaborations can't be achieved just by wishful thinking. Azhao has enough resources to make this collaboration go to waste."

Ning Nanxue slightly turned sideways, avoiding Xu Zhiru's deliberate approach: "Really? Then please take a look at what true business tactics are, Miss Xu."

After saying that, she turned and walked towards the conference room, her high heels making a steady and powerful sound on the marble floor.

I heard Xu Zhiru's suppressed breathing behind me, and it was obvious that she was very angry.

Entering the conference room, Secretary Chen came forward and whispered, “Mr. Ning, I just received news that Louis will arrive tomorrow.”

Ning Nanxue nodded, already having made up her mind: "Notify all directors that there will be an emergency meeting tonight. The topic is the Green Light Technology cooperation project."

Secretary Chen left as soon as he was told. Ning Nanxue stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the flashing neon lights of the city. She smoothed the hem of her skirt with both hands, and the chess piece she had been planning for a long time could finally be made.

Fu Chen was talking to several shareholders when he received the meeting notice. When he heard that Louis would arrive the next day, his face suddenly changed, as cold as ice.

He hurriedly said goodbye to the shareholders, quickly walked to an empty corner, and made a phone call.
