Rong Yan didn't want to hear it.
She had a lot of opinions.
"Pushing me out to save the Rong Group at this time, brother, how can you bear it? I'm your own sister, not your pawn!"
Rong Zhan sneered and said, "Isn't this the trouble you caused? Rong Yan, I've told you before not to mess around, but you wouldn't listen. Now, others have something on you. If you don't generously put on an apology, do you think everyone will let you off the hook?"
"..."
"Do you want to put the Rong Group in a state of utter ruin?"
"..."
"Even if you apologize, Qiao might not be willing to let you off the hook, and who knows what kind of trouble she might cause."
"..."
Rong Yan remained silent.
She was annoyed with Rong Zhan.
Her eyes also held a hint of resentment.
Xia Fan chimed in, "Yan Yan, your brother is right. It's not that you need to be stubborn, but that you need to put on a show. The important thing now is to stabilize the Rong Group. Otherwise, if the stock price keeps falling like this every day, you'll lose even more money in the stock market, which is in the hundreds of millions."
"..."
"This is also a delaying tactic to salvage some goodwill for the Rong Group and gain some sympathy, so that the Rong Group doesn't fall into a period of stagnation."
"..."
"The impact of Kevin and your scandals cannot be recovered in a day or two. This time, your Rong Group has really suffered a major blow."
...
Rong Yan still didn't express her opinion, so Rong Zhan continued.
“Jiang Zhi and Qiao Chu both hold shares in the Rong Group, as does Jiang Chi. If any of them sells their shares, it will have a fatal impact on the Rong Group.”
"..."
"If shareholders follow them and sell off Rong's Group shares, have you thought about the consequences? It would not only be a huge blow, but it could also cause the market to crash, and the cash flow would be fatally affected, making it difficult to save the company!"
Rong Yan looked at her brother and said coldly, "Don't you have shares in JOE? You can reduce your holdings too!"
"If I were to reduce my holdings of JOE stock at this time, it would be exactly what Jiang Zhi and Qiao Chu want. Do you think they're stupid?"
"Brother, you're not capable of handling emergencies. Let Dad come back and deal with it."
“If Dad finds out about the stupid thing you did, he’ll want to punish you first.”
"It's obvious that you misjudged people and brought Kevin, this jinx, into the Rong Group, making a mess of things."
"Rong Yan, are you even being reasonable? I just poached Kevin, and before this incident, when his fame was soaring, what were you saying? Now that this has happened, you're washing your hands of everything!"
The two siblings started arguing again, and in an instant, Xia Fan acted as a peacemaker.
"Everyone, calm down! If the other party knew you were arguing so much, they'd laugh themselves to death. You can't fall into Qiao Chu and Jiang Zhi's trap!"
Rong Zhan said very seriously, "Rong Yan, you decide what to do. I won't say anything more to you. I'll only deal with Kevin's matter. You made this mess, so you have to clean it up yourself."
Rong Yan also roared, "I'll clean it up myself, I didn't ask you to interfere!"
Rong Zhan's face was very ugly, and he left the presidential suite in anger.
...
Xia Fan sighed softly.
He was still with Rong Yan.
He calmly said, "You've angered your brother, who can help you now?"
"Xia Fan, shut up! If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"
"I'll shut up after I've finished my analysis and won't bother you anymore. Asking you to apologize isn't about embarrassing you; it's about survival! How many celebrities who make mistakes and get caught genuinely want to apologize? For the sake of the times, to salvage their image, and to minimize the damage, aren't they willing to bow their heads in public?"
Rong Yan didn't say anything, but glared fiercely at Xia Fan.
Instantly, Xia Fan stopped talking and sat down on the sofa.
When it comes to interests, he doesn't want the Rong Group to go under so quickly.
However, dealing with a carefree woman like Rong Yan is truly a complicated matter.
******
After the statement was taken, Jiang Zhi embraced Qiao Chu.
He kissed her as if no one else was around.
Qiao Chu responded, but she didn't dare to be presumptuous.
This is a police station!
Someone's watching!
...
Qiao Chu tugged at Jiang Zhi's clothes, reminding him to be careful.
Suddenly, one of the police officers coughed a few times.
Jiang Zhi then ended the passionate kiss.
“You can go back now. We’ll let you know when there’s progress in the investigation. With the evidence solid, Wang Xiao has admitted to plagiarism.”
"Thank you, officers. Thank you for your hard work in following up."
"It's what we should do, you're welcome!"
Jiang Zhi, with Qiao Chu in his arms, led the way out of the police station.
Qiao Chu smiled sweetly, and her heart was filled with sweetness too.
Qin Yun and Qiao Nuan followed behind.
They laughed too.
It seems my sister and brother-in-law are quite happy!
This time, Qiao Nuan generously wished them continued happiness.
...
Back at JOE, Qiao Chu asked Qiao Nuan to come to her office.
"These are your design drafts. Now, I'm returning them to you."
Qiao Nuan looked at it and was very surprised!
She looked at Qiao Chu in astonishment.
"Sister...you..."
“I didn’t throw it away. I picked it up after you left. I deliberately provoked you. Actually, your designs are quite good and can be showcased at the new product launch. I asked you to prepare several more series so that you wouldn’t be in such a rush and would have enough time to prepare the remaining works.”
"You've thought this through very well; I misunderstood you."
"It's okay, I'm mentally strong, I can handle it! It was my fault for not telling you about this plan."
"Now, I feel really sorry for you! You would rather be misunderstood by me than defend yourself, and you're still helping me. You're really amazing, and I'm very grateful that you tolerate my willfulness and foolishness."
"Work hard, I believe you can do it! You're not stupid, you're sincere and kind to your friends, it's others who have bad intentions!"
"I am still very grateful to you. Without you, I wouldn't be who I am today!"
"Don't take it to heart. We're family, and we should work together to defeat the bad guys! I'll show you something—it's a surprise!"
Qiao Nuan nodded, and she and Qiao Chu went to the model room.
Here, she saw that the design she had created had been transformed into clothing.
They're all being worn by models.
Qiao Chu smiled and said, "I was afraid there wouldn't be enough time, so I had the clothes made first. Manager Qiao, could you please check again to see if any alterations are needed?"
Qiao Nuan smiled happily, but her nose also felt a little sore, and she was so excited that she almost cried.
Her sister is so thoughtful!
She was truly blind before, and her heart was blind too!
She felt so ashamed of herself for doing so many stupid and wrong things!
As if seeing through Qiao Nuan's thoughts, Qiao Chu hugged her.
"We agreed to start over. So, you need to forget everything from the past. Now, you need to start planning your life anew. This is just a small part; there will definitely be many more precious memories and many more gains to come."
Qiao Nuan also hugged Qiao Chu.
"Thank you, sis! I understand. I will definitely work hard and do my best!"
