Chapter 553: Better to have nothing than to have something bad
During the meal, Xiao Muzhen and Xu Miao were chatting almost all the time, and Yan Nan was left aside.
When they were about to leave after dinner, Xu Miao was still a little reluctant to leave, and couldn't help but ask, "Manager Yan, which hotel are you staying at? Why don't I stay there tonight? I can chat with Xiao Sheji again!"
Yan Nan looked at her helplessly, "Designer Xu, shouldn't you consider that we just flew here and need to rest."
A hint of disappointment flashed across Xu Miao's eyes. "Okay, then I'll pick you up at the hotel tomorrow morning!"
After sending the two back to the hotel, Xu Miao left reluctantly.
Yan Nan and Xiao Muzhen turned around and went back to the hotel. While waiting for the elevator, Yan Nan said, "Xiao Sheji, you did a great job tonight. You can tell Xu Sheji about any unimportant things, but anything involving our company's confidential information must be kept confidential."
When Xu Miao was chatting with Xiao Muzhen tonight, he brought up Qingshang several times. Yan Nan was worried at first, but when he saw Xiao Muzhen quickly and calmly change the subject, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If Xiao Muzhen had not harmed Zhao Mingyue so badly, he would definitely have saved himself a lot of worries by having a subordinate like this who was able to read people's expressions.
"Well, Manager Yan, don't worry. I know exactly what to say and what not to say."
After getting out of the elevator, the two returned to their rooms.
After taking a shower, Xiao Muzhen was about to go to bed when Xie Fu called.
"Zhenzhen, I heard a rumor and I don't know whether I should tell you."
"What rumors?"
"I heard... I heard that Huo Yunting and Guo Zhenzhen's engagement seemed to be forced... but I didn't find out the reason."
Xiao Muzhen was silent for a while, then said, "Whether he was forced or not, it has nothing to do with me. It's impossible for me to be with him anymore."
Xie Fu sighed, "I just feel that... maybe he really did it for you when he took action against Guo Zhenzhen this time..."
"If you're in love, you're definitely a love-brained person."
Xie Fu: “…”
Xiao Muzhen didn't want to hear anything about Huo Yunting anymore, so she said, "Don't mention this person in front of me anymore. It's impossible for him and I to be together again. Whether he has his own reasons or not, it has nothing to do with me."
After saying that, Xiao Muzhen hung up the phone.
Throwing her phone aside, she buried her head in the quilt, feeling irritated.
In the next few days, under the leadership of Xu Miao, Xiao Muzhen and Yan Nan visited many fabric factories and garment factories in Nancheng and also made many research reports.
On the last night, after dinner, Xu Miao sent the two of them downstairs to the hotel. He said with some reluctance, "You must come to Nancheng again if you have the chance. I will take you to eat Nancheng's delicious food then."
Yan Nan smiled and said, "Okay, if the company decides to establish a branch in South City, Xiao Sheji and I should be here soon."
"Then it's a deal!"
After Xu Miao left, the two returned to the hotel and began to pack their things. They were flying back to Beijing at around 11pm.
…
Huo family.
Huo Yunting was looking at documents when the phone on the table suddenly rang.
As soon as the call was connected, the voice of his subordinate came over.
"Boss, I've found out what you asked me to investigate. The person who drugged Miss Xiao was Qingshang's manager Yan Nan. He got the poison from Chi Xuan. However, I'm still investigating the source of the poison and haven't found it yet."
Huo Yunting's expression changed as he said in a cold voice, "Keep investigating! Tell me as soon as you have any news!"
After saying that, Huo Yunting immediately hung up the phone and called Xiao Muzhen's cell phone.
However, the call was still displayed. He immediately called Ke Ning into the office and said, "Call Xiao Muzhen immediately!"
Koning called several times before the call was finally connected.
"Secretary Ke, you made so many calls, is there something wrong?"
"I'm Huo Yunting. I have something to tell you. Yan Nan wants to harm you. You'd better be careful of him!"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds. After a burst of rustling sounds, a male voice with a hint of sarcasm came over.
"Mr. Huo, it's too late."
The next second, the call was hung up.
Huo Yunting's face changed drastically and he called back immediately, but the phone was turned off.
"Ke Ning, go check where Xiao Muzhen is right now!"
His voice was trembling because of nervousness.
Ke Ning was startled by his pale face and said quickly, "I'll go right away!"
"Hurry up, she's in danger!"
Thinking that Yan Nan was right next to Xiao Muzhen, Huo Yunting felt a surge of panic in his heart. If anything happened to Xiao Muzhen, he would never forgive himself for leaving Xiao Muzhen with such a dangerous person for so long before he discovered it!
On the other side, in Xiao Muzhen's room.
After Yan Nan turned off his phone, he threw Xiao Muzhen's phone aside and looked down at the unconscious Xiao Muzhen with coldness in his eyes.
He sneered and said slowly, "Xiao Muzhen, you are really lucky. I didn't expect that you can still live well after taking Chi Xuan's poison. If Chi Xuan didn't hate you so much, I would have suspected that she gave me a fake poison!"
He took out the rope he brought with him, tied up Xiao Muzhen, and then stuffed her into the suitcase beside him.
Since the poison couldn't kill Xiao Muzhen, he would throw her into the sea. He didn't believe she could survive!
After putting the suitcase containing Xiao Muzhen in the trunk of the taxi, Yan Nan asked the driver to go to the beach.
On the way, he received a call from Huo Yunting.
"If you dare to do anything to Xiao Muzhen, I will make your family pay the price!"
Yan Nan opened the car window and the cold night wind blew in.
He raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Boss Huo, I think I have done this, so why would I care about those things?"
"Are you sure you want to sacrifice your family's lives for your foolish behavior?"
Yan Nan sneered, "To be honest, I've been tired of being dragged on for a long time. If you are willing to solve this big problem for me, I should probably thank you."
"I've found out you're in South City now. Your plan won't succeed!"
"Hahaha, I also want to know, how can you stop me now that you are in the capital?"
After saying that, Yan Nan hung up the phone and turned off his phone.
An hour later, the taxi stopped at the beach.
After paying the fare, Yan Nan dragged his suitcase towards the beach with a smile on his face.
He was originally going to carry out his plan last night, but he didn't expect that the effect of the medicine was not enough last night and Xiao Muzhen did not faint, so it was delayed until today.
But it doesn't matter, no one can stop his plan anyway.
Ten minutes later, he stopped by the beach and opened his suitcase.
Xiao Muzhen had woken up, and when she saw Yan Nan, a cold look flashed in her eyes.
"Manager Yan, why are you doing this to me?!"
