An Moxue was causing a stir in Puda Prefecture, but she disappeared without a trace. At some point, news of her death began to circulate in Puda Prefecture. The news became more and more outrageous, and eventually it was said that the company under her name had changed hands. In the end, the employees in the company were all panicked, and no matter how the manager tried to calm them down, it was to no avail.
When the manager saw her, he was so excited that he wished he could drink two more pitchers of ice-cold beer in the dead of winter.
The manager said somewhat awkwardly, "Ms. Jiduo, you see, if you don't show up, it will be difficult to appease the people in the company."
An Moxue said nonchalantly, "It's okay, I'll go to the company tomorrow. They want me to show my face so much, I'll grant their wish."
"But what about your safety?" the manager hesitated.
"It's alright, how's your arm?"
"Much better," the manager said somewhat embarrassedly. "Thank you for your concern."
"Don't overthink it, just focus on your work. I appreciate all your hard work, and your year-end bonus will prove it."
After hearing her words, the manager's anxiety, which had lasted for many days, finally subsided, and he left the manor with a joyful expression.
The next day, An Moxue arrived at her company gate with a large convoy of cars as escort.
Once inside the company, she could clearly sense the restlessness of the employees. She didn't say anything to reprimand them, but simply smiled at them in a friendly manner.
After she left, the employees gasped in quiet surprise.
The manager followed behind her, his good mood visibly obvious and impossible to hide.
Upon entering the office, the manager smiled and said to An Moxue, "It really takes Miss Jiduo's personal intervention!"
No sooner had she finished speaking than An Moxue said, "Lie down!" At the same time, a "bang" was heard as a bullet struck the wall behind An Moxue, who had just been standing there.
The manager turned pale with fright, lay on the ground, and looked at An Moxue. An Moxue shouted outside, "There's a sniper!" At the same time, there was a series of hurried footsteps outside, some going in and some going out.
The curtains were drawn, blocking the view from outside. An Moxue sat down in a chair. The manager had already been helped up and sat down by the guards. He said with a wry smile, "I'm still too timid. I need to practice more. I really can't compare to Miss Jiduo."
An Moxue could tell that he was alright, since he was still able to make fun of himself even though his face was a little pale.
The guard who had been checking outside returned and reported, "Miss Giddens, when we chased after them, they had already retreated. We only saw their backs. A small team has already given chase."
An Moxue waved her hand, and everyone left.
At this point, everyone in the company knew that Miss Jido had been assassinated in the office. They were all worried for her and praying that she would be safe. They didn't want to lose such a good, high-paying job, especially since the boss wasn't exploiting them.
At noon, she appeared in the staff canteen, held a brief meeting to reassure everyone, and then left unhurriedly after lunch.
Seeing their calm and composed boss, the employees' anxious hearts were soothed once again, and some even felt that they should work hard to repay their boss.
In the afternoon, just as An Moxue arrived home, Karl came to the manor to find her, so eagerly that he didn't even make a phone call beforehand to arrange it.
"Karl, this isn't like you! Why did you come in such a hurry? Just say what's on your mind."
"I can't wait. It's not easy to see you these days. I came here to try my luck, but I didn't expect to find you here."
He took a sip of his black tea and said to An Moxue, "Jiduo, what you said before about our two families' cooperation, does it still stand?"
An Moxue readily agreed, "Of course! Even with my constant assassinations, can your elders rest assured?"
Carl said with a wry smile, "Times have changed. They didn't have the best option but you, so they had no choice but to agree."
"Okay, have your team bring the documents to the manor tomorrow so we can discuss the details, how about that?"
Carl asked, somewhat surprised, "So fast! Don't you need to prepare?"
"No need. When I told you about this, I already instructed the company to make preparations. I think that cooperation between our two families will give you more credibility in front of your family. It's a win-win situation, and it's also a way for me to repay you for all the help you've given me before."
Karl smiled broadly when he heard her say that. "Giddy, I've always felt happy to know you."
An Moxue replied with a smile, "Me too, and I'm very lucky, aren't I!"
Karl stood up and said, "Giddy, I won't stay any longer. Go back and prepare. See you tomorrow morning."
“Okay.” An Moxue escorted him all the way to the front gate and watched the car leave. Before she even entered the house, she saw several cars parked at the castle gate.
Sofia ran over after getting off the bus and gave him a warm hug, followed by Kachusa, Saiya, and Masa.
The men were clearly very excited when they saw her.
As they walked into the house, the group looked her over. "Jido, are you alright?"
"It's okay, look." She twirled around in front of them.
Seeing An Moxue's lively personality, the group felt relieved.
Sofia said, "We heard that you were assassinated by a sniper at your company at noon. We originally wanted to go to your company, but then we thought it wouldn't be appropriate, so we came here instead. How do you feel about the big surprise waiting for you when you show up?"
An Moxue looked relaxed and even joked, "Not bad, not bad, excellent!"
“He’s a man who’s seen it all; he’s extraordinary,” Saiya said.
Several people sat in a corner of the sofa, and the servants brought tea and snacks.
An Moxue looked at the group and asked, "You've come at this hour, haven't you eaten yet?"
Several people nodded honestly, and Sophia said, "We're just planning to get dinner here."
An Moxue summoned the servants and instructed them to prepare dinner to entertain them.
Sofia asked, "Giddy, where have you been all this time? I haven't seen you anywhere."
An Moxue replied, "I've returned to Mongolia."
Katyusha asked, "Isn't it almost New Year's? Why are you back?"
"The assassins have all gone to Mongolia. There's no other way but to come back early to check on things, in case something unexpected happens here and the staff can't handle it."
Saiyan said, "You live such a thrilling and exciting life, something that us mortals can't even imagine."
An Moxue joked, "Why don't you stay for two days and experience it? Maybe you'll meet her tonight."
Saiya shook her head: "Forget it! My heart is too fragile!" Good days aren't lived like this. She was just an ordinary person, and the assassination attempt only existed in stories she had heard.
An Moxue didn't want to talk about this anymore, so she asked, "How's business? When will I break even?"
Sofia said, "The mall is open and doing well, with more people than expected."
After listening to Sofia's description of the shopping mall, she asked about the restaurant: "Katyusha, how's our restaurant?"
Katyusha said smugly, "It's hard to find a seat."
She then looked at Martha, who said, "Everything is fine at the branch office. I've only been back for three days."
