The afternoon sun was a bit dazzling. Outside the Ning Group building, people were coming and going.
"Jiang Tingchen, let go! This is Ning's and my business, you don't have to interfere!" Ning Nanxue tried hard to shake off his hand, with anger in her voice.
Jiang Tingchen grabbed her arm, his face tense, his voice low but every word clear.
"Don't you want me to care? Ning Nanxue, what's going on with the Fu family? And that guy Fu Chen, do you want to fall flat on your face again?"
"I know my limits when it comes to business!" Ning Nanxue twisted her wrist.
"Property? Your proper propriety is pushing yourself into a fire pit?" Jiang Tingchen's voice rose. Several Ning's employees nearby looked over, lowered their heads, and quickly walked away. "I'm putting this out there. Don't even think about getting out of that mess at Fu's!"
He shook off Ning Nanxue and strode towards the car on the side of the road. The car door slammed shut and the black car disappeared in a flash.
Ning Nanxue swayed and finally managed to stand firm by leaning against the stone pillar next to her.
She looked in the direction the car drove away, then slowly sat down on the steps, hugged her knees, and lowered her head. Her shoulders trembled.
On the corner, a man in a baseball cap put away his phone, grinned, and slipped into the crowd before making a call: "Ms. Su, two people were arguing fiercely downstairs at Ning's. Jiang Tingchen drove away, and Ning Nanxue was sitting on the steps alone, wiping her tears."
On the other end of the phone, Su Yao was drawing her eyebrows and eyes in front of the mirror. After hearing the report, she paused with the eyebrow pencil in her hand and curved the corners of her mouth: "Okay, I see. Keep an eye on her and tell me if there is any movement."
After hanging up the phone, Su Yao looked at herself in the mirror. Haha, Jiang Tingchen really had a quarrel with Ning Nanxue?
It’s still about Fu Chen, this is so interesting.
Men, no matter how nice they say, when it comes to their own business and face, won’t they still turn against each other?
Ning Nanxue actually has contact with Xu Zhiru. It would be strange if Jiang Tingchen was happy about it.
"My good sister has been wronged, I have to go and 'show some concern'." Su Yao blinked at the mirror, took out a new skirt of the season from the closet, and took out a shiny necklace from the jewelry box.
Not long after, Su Yao arrived outside Ning Nanxue's office carrying a branded paper bag.
"Is Nanxue in there? I heard she wasn't feeling well, so I came to see her." Su Yao's voice was sickeningly sweet, and her face was full of "worry".
The secretary paused, a bit embarrassed, "Ms. Su, President Ning... doesn't feel like seeing anyone today. She said she wants to be alone for a while."
"Oh, I just need someone to accompany me because I'm in a bad mood." Su Yao took the secretary's hand and said, "What's our relationship? How can I not come at this time? Don't worry, I'll just persuade her."
She didn't wait for the secretary to speak and pushed the door open and went in.
Ning Nanxue stood by the window with her back to the door, her shoulders looking a little slumped. When she heard the door open, she turned around. Her face was pale and her eyes were red, as if she had just cried.
"Miss Ning, what's wrong with you?" Su Yao walked over and grabbed Ning Nanxue's hand, her face full of "heartache". "When I first came here, I heard them say that you and Mr. Jiang... had a quarrel?"
Ning Nanxue didn't pull her hand away. She lowered her head and said in a hoarse voice, "Nothing, just a small matter. Are you here to see the joke?"
"Isn't this a small matter?" Su Yao raised her voice a little, then lowered it and moved closer. "Boss Jiang is really something. Can't you say it in private? You have to embarrass yourself downstairs in the company. Don't take it too seriously. Men are like that sometimes. They speak aggressively."
"We are all women, so of course I won't laugh at your joke at this time."
She pushed Ning Nanxue to sit on the sofa and put the paper bag on the table: "Here, I brought you something. You seem tired lately. Don't always look so sad. It doesn't look good."
Ning Nanxue glanced at the bag and said in a flat voice: "Thank you, Su Yao, it's thoughtful of you."
"Why are you so polite to me?" Su Yao sighed and asked casually, "Seriously, what are you two doing this for? Why did I hear it was...about Fu's business?"
Ning Nanxue picked up the cup and took a sip of water, running her fingers along it. After a while, she said sullenly, "Well, Ning's needs some cash flow. I think, as a business, if the conditions are right, it's not impossible."
"Mr. Jiang doesn't agree?" Su Yao asked quickly, her eyes shining.
Ning Nanxue pulled the corner of her mouth, as if giving a bitter smile: "He said that Fu Chen is unreliable, and the Fu Group is a trap, and I'm asking for trouble. He also said... if I really cooperate with the Fu Group, he... he will ignore me."
As she spoke, her voice became a little tearful, and she expressed how aggrieved she felt.
Su Yao was delighted, but she looked like she was defending someone: "Boss Jiang is too... too unreasonable. Business has its own rules. How can he use personal feelings to make things worse? Besides, Fu's is an old brand. A lean camel is bigger than a horse. If you can help, it might be a good thing for Ning's."
She paused, looked at Ning Nanxue's expression, and continued to fan the flames: "Besides, Fu Chen... he's quite pitiful right now, isn't he? I heard that Xu Zhiru has caused him a lot of trouble. He's in a difficult situation right now. If Ning's helps him, how can he not remember your kindness?"
Ning Nanxue didn't say anything, just looked down at her hands, looking extremely conflicted.
Su Yao saw that the drama was almost over and stood up: "Okay, Nanxue, don't be too upset. Mr. Jiang might have said that because he was angry. It will be fine in two days. You take a good rest, I will come to see you next time."
"Well, thank you for your help, Su Yao. I didn't expect that it would be you who would come to comfort me at this time." Ning Nanxue raised her head and forced a smile.
As soon as the people left, the grievance and confusion on Ning Nanxue's face immediately disappeared, and her eyes became very clear.
She took out her phone and sent a message to Jiang Tingchen: "Hooked."
Fu Chen was having a headache because of the money issue.
The bank is urging us to pay back the money every day, and several projects are waiting to be completed, and shareholders are becoming increasingly dissatisfied.
Su Yao did give in, but the conditions were simply taking advantage of the situation.
Just as I was getting annoyed, my secretary called me. Her voice was filled with an unconcealable amusement, and she even tried to take credit for it. "Boss Fu, the news of Boss Ning and Boss Jiang's quarrel has spread throughout the company. There are even photos of them circulating online."
Fu Chen tightened his grip on the phone and frowned, "What's going on?"
"It seems to be because of the relationship between Miss Ning and Miss Xu," the secretary said with increasing excitement. "Mr. Fu, this is a good opportunity. You..."
Fu Chen interrupted her: "I know." He hung up the phone, feeling a little confused.
Ning Nanxue and Jiang Tingchen had a quarrel, and Jiang Tingchen disagreed... Then isn't Ning Nanxue alone now?
He tapped his fingers on the table, picked up another phone and dialed Ning Nanxue's number.
