She dialed a number, her voice sweet, "Brother Chuan, I was out shopping and just saw Dad coming out of the Berlin Group. Did he really go to talk to Berlin Jewelry about a collaboration?"
Qin Yuchuan frowned upon hearing this.
"How could that be?" He clearly didn't believe it. "Dad's off today. He never goes out. He should be staying at home right now. Why would he go to Berlin Jewelry? Besides, didn't you say you didn't invite anyone from Berlin Jewelry yesterday?"
Song Ningxue sighed softly, her tone heavy, "Yes, that's why I'm even more curious. When did you get involved with the people at Berlin Jewelry? If you knew them before, why didn't you go and negotiate the contract?"
At this point, she seemed to suddenly realize something, and her expression changed drastically.
Then he stammered, "Brother Chuan, I didn't mean to say anything bad about Dad, it's just that the company is about to be handed over to you, and such an important cooperation should be negotiated by you... After all, Dad is about to retire."
Qin Yuchuan's face was gloomy.
He gripped his phone tightly, his eyes filled with coldness.
The shareholders were already quite critical of his taking over the Qin family business. He was eager to prove himself, but the Qin family lost several collaborations that they had managed to secure because of his turmoil with Song Nuan.
Qin Yuchuan's current position in the Qin family is very awkward.
If Song Nuan won't help him, why won't Qin Guangsheng give him the opportunity to negotiate a cooperation with Berlin Jewelry?
Qin Yuchuan hung up the phone with a cold face.
That night.
Only Song Nuan and Qin Guangsheng were at the dining table.
"Uncle Qin, how did your conversation with President Lin go today?" Song Nuan asked.
Qin Guangsheng smiled and said, "President Lin said that Qin's polishing technology does not yet meet the standards, but if Berlin has a light luxury product line in the future, Qin's will be given priority."
That was the answer I expected.
Song Nuan smiled and said, "As far as I know, the Berlin luxury products are already in preparation, and the design drawings will be completed by the end of this year at the latest. Did Uncle Qin and President Lin exchange contact information?"
"I kept it."
"Then maybe there really will be a chance to cooperate next year." Song Nuan was genuinely happy for Qin Guangsheng.
For some unknown reason, Qin Guangsheng's smile faded, and he said earnestly, "Nuan Nuan, I heard that the people you fired a few days ago went to Song's company to cause trouble?"
Song Nuan gave a faint "hmm".
"Why don't you come back to the Qin family?" Qin Guangsheng solemnly invited. "I have seen all your contributions to the Qin family over the years. Song Zhiren is blind to your worth, so don't suffer there anymore."
Song Nuan was somewhat surprised, not expecting Qin Guangsheng to ask her to return to the Qin family.
She smiled and said, "Uncle Qin, if I go back now, Yu Chuan might cause trouble, right? If my position is higher than his, he definitely won't be happy. If it's lower, it's hard to say whether he'll use his personal grudges for revenge, which wouldn't be good for the company either."
Qin Guangsheng had already considered what she was saying. "It's reasonable for you to be rehired to your original position. Even if Yu Chuan has objections, there's nothing he can say."
Qin Guangsheng really hoped she would come back. "After all, you've already signed a contract with Yu Chuan. You can get a divorce in three months. Whether you're in Song's or not won't affect your shares and inheritance rights."
To be honest, Song Nuan was very tempted.
The time that Song wasted could have been used to do many other things.
But if she returns to the Qin family, will her situation be any better than it is now?
Song Nuan dared not gamble.
Human hearts are fickle.
She smiled slightly, neither saying no nor yes, "The Song Group's shareholders' meeting is in a few days. I'll make plans after the shareholders' meeting makes its resolution."
Qin Guangsheng said no more.
At 10 p.m. sharp, Lu Ziyang appeared on the balcony.
When Song Nuan saw him this time, she was very calm and her heart was not stirred at all.
As the man pushed open the door, he complained, "Luckily you live on the second floor. If it were a few floors higher, I wouldn't be able to climb in."
Song Nuan scoffed, "Is there anything that can stump you?"
Lu raised his eyebrows, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
"The shareholders' meeting is the day after tomorrow. I have bad news and good news. Which would you like to hear first?" Lu Ziyang stepped forward and pulled her into his arms.
Song Nuan: "I don't want to hear any of it."
"Then let's do it."
Lu Ziyang skillfully undressed her, instantly creating a romantic atmosphere in the room.
A silvery sheen appeared between their lips and teeth.
Lu Ziyang was addicted to her scent. When he came tonight, An Szeze, knowing that Song Nuan had returned to the Qin family, mocked him as a simp and said that he should be careful not to end up with nothing after licking her boots.
An Szeze advised him to reveal his identity directly and take Song Nuan away.
He knew, of course, that Li Jingchen's identity could solve all his current predicaments, but Song Nuan didn't like it.
Moreover, he was afraid.
If Song Nuan knew he had been deceiving her all along...
Lu Ziyang dared not think about it; he was utterly resistant to that unknown fear, so he deepened the kiss, wishing he could tear her apart and devour her whole.
Only at times like these could he feel that Song Nuan belonged to him.
Their breathing became heavier.
Lu Ziyang took off his shirt, revealing broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and perfectly defined abs.
Song Nuan smiled and patted it, "You've been practicing well lately."
Lu Ziyang said with a hint of smugness, "Then you have to be prepared at all times, lest you accidentally let another man steal your heart."
Song Nuan clicked her tongue, but she was quite pleased with his approach.
Suddenly, a loud noise came from outside.
Song Nuan heard her own name called.
Where is Song Nuan?
She frowned and decisively pushed the man off her. "Qin Yuchuan is back, and he's coming for me. Go hide on the balcony and don't get caught."
Lu Ziyang was very dissatisfied when the process was interrupted halfway through.
His dark eyes were filled with malice.
At this moment, Qin Yuchuan had already arrived at the door. Finding it locked from the inside, he began pounding on the door and roaring, "Song Nuan, you come out here!"
After Song Nuan finished dressing, she turned around to make sure Lu Ziyang was hidden before slowly opening the door.
"It's so late, what do you want...?"
Before she could finish speaking, a large hand grabbed Song Nuan's neck. She looked at Qin Yuchuan, who had made the move, in horror, the rest of her words stuck in her throat, unable to come out.
Qin Yuchuan restrained himself from strangling her. "You can't stay in the Song family, so you're thinking of going back to the Qin family? What, after fighting Ningxue for the inheritance, you want to fight me for it now?"
Song Nuan's face flushed red, and her breathing became rapid.
She punched and kicked Qin Yuchuan relentlessly, and only after a moment did Qin Yuchuan release her.
Song Nuan took deep breaths of air.
After a moment, she raised her eyes and glared at Qin Yuchuan. "I don't know what you're talking about! I have no intention of going back to the Qin family. Besides, the Song family originally belonged to me. She's an illegitimate daughter; she's the one fighting me for her, isn't she?"
Qin Yuchuan watched her put on an act with a cold smile.
Qin Guangsheng suddenly approached him and asked who the current design department director was.
The former design director was Song Nuan, and we haven't been able to find a replacement since she left.
Qin Yuchuan immediately guessed Qin Guangsheng's intention.
The shock from Song Ningxue's words during the day hadn't completely subsided when Qin Guangsheng revealed that he planned to call Song Nuan back to the Qin family that evening!
How could Qin Yuchuan tolerate this?
He took a deep breath, his eyes cold. "I know you haven't given up on me yet, but it's over between us. Going back to the Qin family won't change anything."
Song Nuan laughed when she heard this; she had no reason to be so persistent about him.
"What if I insist on going back?" Song Nuan, not wanting him to, hooked her arms around his neck. "I can secure many projects for the Qin family, can Song Ningxue?"
Qin Yuchuan's eyes were dark and his face was expressionless.
Only he knows how fast his heart is beating at that moment.
He lowered his eyes, trying to avoid Song Nuan's direct gaze, but inadvertently saw the marks on her chest.
