Jian Jianan was stunned. “What!?”Jian Jianan’s expression infuriated Gu Mocheng further, fuelling the flames of anger in him. “Since you don’t love me, why did you pursue me in the first place? For the Jian Family? Or to fulfill the wishes of your deceased mother?”“I…..”At that moment, a few leaves cascaded from the tree, temporarily obstructing Jian Jianan’s view, so she could not see Gu Mocheng’s expressions as he asked her these questions.When she was able to see his face clearly, his
She never expected for everything to just exist on the surface. The fact was that Qi Xiuli was a woman of great ambition. Other than just becoming the wife of Jian Ansheng, just like Xiao Yihan, she also aimed to seize the Jian Family’s possession!Jian Jianan was overwhelmed with animosity, but still smiled on the surface. “What are you talking about, Aunty? You worked so hard for our family, how could I blame you?”Qi Xiuli feigned sentiment, and even managed to squeeze a few crocodile tear
“Nannan, company matters are complicated. It’s not as simple as dealing with your relationship with your classmates. Mr. Victor was disappointed with us because of you. Do you think he would want to cooperate with you?”Jian Ansheng glanced at Qi Xiuli with dissatisfaction. He then patted Jian Jianan’s shoulder and spoke with his deep voice. “Nannan, Mr. Victor’s matter is none of your fault. Even if we don’t cooperate with Mr. Victor, we, the North-South Pharmaceutical will not falter! You sho
Qi Xiuli’s aged face was flush with confusion. ‘Jiannan used to hate dealing with company matters. Why was she so proactive now?’ Jian Jianan used to be just a hot-headed airhead who never thought her words through,’ she thoughtAs she saw how confident Jian Jianan was, she sneered silently. ‘So what if she’s taking initiative? There’s no way Jian Jianan can convince Mr. Victor to cooperate with them in only two days!’ Qi Xiuli thought.“Aiya, how could I not believe in you? I was just worried
Seeing Mr. Victor’s raised eyebrows, she immediately spoke up “No, but I can learn!” “Sit! If you can beat me at chess, I will give you a chance to discuss the collaboration deal with me!”“Thank you very much!”Jian Jianan sat politely in the chair opposite Mr. Victor. Looking at the chess pieces on the table, she felt instantly doomed. Her grandfather liked to play chess too. He once wanted to teach her, but she was completely uninterested. She ran away faster than anyone ever could every tim
“I have lost. I am thankful to Mr. Victor for giving me a chance to learn chess from you. I will never forget what happened today for the rest of my life!”Jian Jianan’s demeanor was still respectful and polite. She did not show either despair or indignance at her loss.In the process of chess-playing, Mr. Victor gathered that Jian Jianan was composed, calm and focused. He could not relate her to the rumors of the unruly, obstinate girl who committed suicide and broke off an engagement with her
When Jian Ansheng heard the fact that Jian Jianan had successfully obtained the collaboration contract with Mr. Victor, he could not stop smiling the whole night. His facial expressions ranged from excitement, happiness, and also a deep sense of pride. “You are my daughter - like quiet and unassuming firecrackers, once ignited, you surprise everyone by burning bright! Nannan, seeing you progress, your father is so glad and relieved!”Jian Ansheng had been depressed and worried about the collabor
Even though North-South Pharmaceutical was recently pushed to the edge of public opinion, Jian Ansheng still managed to invite many powerful and renowned people with his wide connections. Jian Jianan used to hate attending these cocktail receptions in her past life. She thought them boring and uninteresting. Now, for the sake of the company, her father, and also herself, she was determined to spend a greater effort in accustoming herself to these social events.Qi Xiuli held Jian Ansheng’s arm a
