The butler appeared at the right time and led the three people to the study.
After entering the study, I closed the door and cut myself off from the outside world.
Mr. Jiang sat down at the main seat and pointed to the chair opposite him: "Sit down. Tell me, what exactly happened?"
Jiang Tingchen spoke first and briefly explained how Fu Chen and Su Yao proposed to merge Ning's company at the board meeting and wanted to kick Ning Nanxue out completely.
After listening to this, Mr. Jiang looked at Ning Nanxue and said, "Girl, what do you think? Are we just going to let them tear down the Ning family's hard work?"
Ning Nanxue met the old man's gaze and said firmly, "Of course not. Both the Ning and Fu companies are what I left for Sui Sui. No one can take them away easily."
"Okay." Old Master Jiang nodded. "That's good. Tingchen, you know how many shares Hua Yun has in the Ning Group, right?"
"I know, Grandpa," Jiang Tingchen replied, "Fu Chen wants to forcibly annex us, and he can't get around us."
"That's good." Old Master Jiang picked up the teacup beside him. "If Fu Chen wants to shuffle the cards, he has to see if our Jiang family agrees. Yaoyao has gone too far now. Don't blame the Jiang family for being ruthless."
Old Master Jiang’s words, “Yaoyao has gone too far now, don’t blame the Jiang family for being ruthless,” set the tone for the matter.
Ning Nanxue and Jiang Tingchen came out of the Jiang family's old house, and the air in the car was much lighter.
"Huh," Ning Nanxue leaned back in her chair, "I was really afraid that Grandpa would say that he wanted us to show mercy for the sake of the Su family's past."
Jiang Tingchen started the car, his voice tinged with laughter: "Grandpa is a businessman. How could he tolerate the Su family's plan to target the Jiang family this time? Besides, he really admires you now."
He turned the steering wheel: "I was planning to move Su Yao, now that grandpa has spoken, our 'surprise' can be given more confidently."
Ning Nanxue asked: "What exactly is the surprise you mentioned?"
"You'll know when you get there." Jiang Tingchen kept it a secret. "Although the Ning Group has been merged in name, its businesses are still independent. When you go back to deal with the Ning Group's affairs, Fu Chen and Su Yao won't be able to say a word."
"Do they dare to say it?" Ning Nanxue snorted, "I want to see what kind of trouble Fu Chen and Su Yao have caused to the Ning family. As for Secretary Chen, I don't know how Fu Chen will embarrass him."
"Fu Chen is a vindictive person. Secretary Chen is your man, so he's bound to suffer some grievances. But Secretary Chen is a smart man and should be able to handle it." Jiang Tingchen comforted her.
That afternoon, at the Fu Group headquarters building.
Ning Nanxue and Jiang Tingchen walked into the hall side by side. The eyes of several receptionists at the front desk widened instantly. One of them hurriedly picked up the phone, lowered his voice, and secretly informed someone without knowing who.
Many employees passing by recognized Ning Nanxue, and whispers arose one after another.
"Isn't that President Ning? Why is she here?"
"That's Jiang Tingchen next to him, right? The two of them..."
Ning Nanxue ignored these voices and walked straight towards the elevator.
Jiang Tingchen stood beside her, like a barrier, blocking out those inquiring gazes.
As soon as the elevator door opened, before I took a few steps, I saw a familiar figure.
Secretary Chen was pushing a creaking cart piled high with discarded documents and empty cardboard boxes. Beads of sweat were oozing from his forehead, and his usually straight suit was now wrinkled, revealing an indescribable sense of desolation.
Seeing Ning Nanxue and Jiang Tingchen, Secretary Chen was also stunned and stopped what he was doing.
He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just pushed his glasses and nodded. There was a bit of embarrassment in his eyes, but his back was still straight.
"Secretary Chen." Ning Nanxue spoke first, her voice calm.
"Mr. Ning, Mr. Jiang." Secretary Chen pointed at the things in front of him as if crying. "You... are here." He pointed at the miscellaneous items in the car. "Mr. Fu said these are all office waste and asked me to deal with them."
Jiang Tingchen frowned unconsciously.
This is not dealing with office waste at all, this is clearly intentional abuse of people.
Fu Chen's methods are still so shameful.
Ning Nanxue took two steps closer and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Fu Chen has caused you a lot of trouble during this period, right?"
Secretary Chen smiled bitterly.
"Fortunately, President Fu... is also very busy." He paused and lowered his voice, "President Ning, are you looking for Fu Chen and Su Yao? They are in the chairman's meeting room on the top floor, and they seem to be holding a board meeting."
"We're going to find them." Ning Nanxue said, "Don't throw these things away. Let him deal with them himself. You just report to the HR department of Ning Group and take a week off. We'll go upstairs."
"Boss Ning," Secretary Chen immediately threw away what he was holding and called her back, his voice almost inaudible. "Su Yao has been very active in the company recently and has won over many people. You... need to be more careful."
"I understand. Thank you, Secretary Chen." Ning Nanxue nodded to him.
The two continued to walk in. Jiang Tingchen whispered, "Fu Chen is taking out all his anger on Secretary Chen."
"That's all he can do." Ning Nanxue didn't care. "Let's go and meet them and see what they're up to."
Outside the chairman's meeting room, a young female secretary was bewildered when she saw Ning Nanxue and Jiang Tingchen. She even stuttered, "Ms. Ning? Mr. Jiang? Do you... have an appointment?"
Ning Nanxue didn't even look at her, but reached out and pushed open the heavy double doors of the conference room.
There was a soft "bang" sound, and everyone in the conference room looked over at once.
The long conference table was full of people, but the main seat was empty. Su Yao was sitting next to the main seat, facing a document, explaining something in high spirits. It seemed that she was discussing a new project plan with the directors.
She was wearing a well-tailored professional suit and had exquisite makeup, and she really had the style of a strong woman.
The door was pushed open and Su Yao stopped talking.
She looked up at the door, and when she saw that the people coming were Ning Nanxue and Jiang Tingchen, the confident expression on her face froze for a moment, but she quickly put on a professional smile again, but that smile seemed a little shaky no matter how she looked at it.
"Oh, Nanxue, Tingchen, why are you here? You didn't even tell me in advance so that I could send someone to pick you up." Su Yao stood up, pretending to be relaxed and familiar in her tone, but her eyes darted between Ning Nanxue and Jiang Tingchen with a hint of imperceptible vigilance.
The other directors in the conference room also looked at each other in confusion. For a moment, the huge conference room was eerily quiet.
Among these people, many were former directors of the Ning Group, as well as people from the Fu Group. Their expressions varied, ranging from surprise to inquiry, and some were just looking to watch the fun.
