The old man heard this and smiled a wickedly cunning smile.
He knew Nuan Nuan was unwilling, but he was old now, with children and grandchildren all around. He truly didn't want to suffer anymore.
In the cold winter, he could sleep until he woke up naturally.
In the summer, he'd go fishing by the sea. He had suffered his whole life, failing his wife his entire life. The rest of his days, he wanted to live for himself.
During this time, he thought of Wen Jun more and more.
If not for Yang Tiancheng's schemes, he would have had a happy family.
"Good, good, good. I entrust the company to you to manage, Grandpa has a hundred percent confidence. If you want to use cutting-edge technology for management, then do as you wish. Just, there are many old employees who have worked with Grandpa their whole lives; we can't let them starve."
His group could still support this large group of people.
Jiang Nuan nodded, understanding that Grandpa had suffered for more than half his life.
"Don't worry, Grandpa, I've only adjusted their positions to make their work easier, and it makes things easier for me too."
The old man nodded with great satisfaction.
His granddaughter was more outstanding than his three grandsons. Everything she did stirred immense waves in his heart, like her medical skills, and her astonishing cutting-edge technological methods.
On the cutting-edge technology charts, she could directly surf and dominate the rankings.
The old man breathed a sigh of relief, his smile even brighter than before.
Jiang Nuan lowered her eyes silently. She just wanted to be a lazy fish; why did she have to take this position?
Fine, professional work should be managed by professional people. She could handle it.
After the matters were settled, the old man called his old friends to share the good news, saying he had handed over the company matters to his granddaughter and could start playing from tomorrow.
The old man was happy.
Jiang Nuan was dejected, her posture a little unsteady as she walked.
The old man looked at his granddaughter's heavy back with relief, smiling so widely his mouth couldn't close. This girl, the more idle she was, the lazier she became.
When she started moving, she gained momentum.
Jiang Nuan had no spirit and went back to lie on her bed to spend her last moments of leisure.
...
At the Shui Guang Club!
In the private room!
The atmosphere was elegant, the music comfortable.
Number One and Mu Jiu Chen sat facing each other. Mu Jiu Chen's composure was awe-inspiring.
Number One looked at his serious expression and smiled slightly, pursing his lips. "What's wrong? Your complexion is so bad?"
After speaking, he picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip, smiling at Mu Jiu Chen opposite him.
Mu Jiu Chen looked at him, his smiling eyes revealing no suspicion. He had always suspected Number One had issues, and indeed, he did.
A cold light flashed in his eyes. "You're asking me? I'm asking you. Didn't you say you would monitor Han Yifan's every move? When he arrived in Modu, your people didn't discover him."
Number One's gaze flickered, gradually becoming as deep as the sea. He smiled meaningfully. "Didn't your people also not discover his departure?"
Mu Jiu Chen: "..."
"Didn't you say he had no problems?" Mu Jiu Chen asked angrily.
Number One suddenly lowered his eyes, his gaze growing cold. "I... I never believed he had problems. He was a genius since childhood. In my heart, I couldn't believe he would do these things. Mu Jiu Chen, he has dissociative identity disorder. The other personality is very bad, but the other one is very kind."
"Kind?" Mu Jiu Chen's tone was mocking. His gaze sharply scrutinized him. "If he's kind, why would he target Nuan Nuan? You know very well what his arrival will bring to Nuan Nuan."
Mu Jiu Chen showed him the information on his phone. "C.H. Bio Company belongs to Han Yifan. Han Yifan first used Mu Yichen and Mu Yunfeng. After being investigated, he changed the legal representative to He Mingrun, constantly diverting our attention. You've known these things for a long time. You asked Meng Yuan to help you investigate C.H. matters just to cover your tracks and hide Han Yifan's crimes."
"You asked Nuan Nuan and Nan Zhou to withdraw from Dark Emperor not out of selfishness, but out of fear of your affairs being exposed. Perhaps the阁下 has problems, but you have even bigger problems."
Mu Jiu Chen's tone was sharp. The moment he saw the contents of the document, he knew Number One had lied to Nuan Nuan about many things.
He had directly kicked Nuan Nuan and Nan Zhou out of Dark Night.
Nuan Nuan and Nan Zhou had always been persistent and would not easily let go of the truth.
The cause and effect of this matter, upon careful consideration, was chilling.
Number One's expression gradually turned grim. He looked at Mu Jiu Chen and said very seriously, "Mu Jiu Chen, you can doubt anything about me, but you absolutely cannot doubt my feelings for Nuan Nuan. No, my friendship."
"Feelings?" Mu Jiu Chen's dark eyes narrowed slightly. A fierce light fell on Number One's handsome face, making him appear even colder. Was this considered accidentally revealing something in a moment of urgency?
Number One looked at Mu Jiu Chen's confused gaze and smiled, his expression somewhat pained. "Mu Jiu Chen, it is your good fortune to have Nuan Nuan. But Jiang Nuan is so beautiful. Every man who sees her is moved by her. Her eyes, her smile, can make one think of beautiful things and feel that life is worth living."
As he spoke, Number One's expression gradually softened. A hint of recollection from years ago flashed in his eyes. "The first time I saw her was in October six years ago. It was snowing heavily abroad, and it was very cold. Many people were unwilling to come out. After I posted a mission, she immediately accepted it. When I met her, she was only 19 years old, at her most beautiful age. But for the milk powder money for her three children, she studied by day, worked in the afternoon, and hunted at night. I asked her why she accepted the mission in such cold weather."
"Do you know how she answered me?"
Mu Jiu Chen clenched his fists, only looking at him without speaking.
Number One smiled. "She said, it's just snowing, not swords falling. Even if swords were falling from the sky, she would still be struggling to survive."
"At that time, her eyes were filled with hatred. She was very cold and never willing to say more than a few words to anyone, yet she still attracted men's attention."
"Initially, I didn't know she was earning money for her children's milk powder. She requested daily payment. Later, I checked her account and discovered she was continuously stocking up on milk powder, children's clothes, and daily necessities. That's when I knew she had children."
"Later, she got better and better, so I gave her a partner, which was Nan Zhou. After they collaborated, they were a perfect match in every mission. Jiang Nuan became an irreplaceable presence in Dark Night. She was excellent in every aspect; this is the talent we need."
"You don't know any of this. This time, it was because I discovered the阁下 had problems that I let them leave."
Number One's tone became agitated. "I understand her personality; in front of you, she always reports good news and hides bad news. On the day I asked her to withdraw, she received an order from the阁下 to be stationed overseas for three years. Do you think she would ever return if she went?"
"If she hadn't been forced to withdraw then, she would have had to go, and you would have lost her forever. This was a dead end from the start!"
Mu Jiu Chen was shocked. When he captured Mu Yichen, he heard Nuan Nuan mention it, but at that time, Nuan Nuan had already withdrawn, so he didn't pay much attention. Mu Jiu Chen's heart ached fiercely. He asked calmly, "What exactly are the阁下's problems?"
