Chapter 264: Brilliant Life, Nothing Can Replace It 39
Time heals everything.
However, many times, as time goes by, the problem will not be solved automatically, but will only get worse.
Gentle and Reasonable Parents
Strict but caring sisters
Interesting and warm-hearted friend
Leng Nuan never let down her guard because of all these seemingly smooth and warm plots. Maybe no one noticed these little changes, but she was still keenly aware of everyone's subtle changes.
Especially the core person around whom this world revolves. A person's change can be slow or instantaneous.
"Xiao Nuan, the public banquet will be held soon. You should take advantage of the time to practice etiquette and don't lose face for the Qin family."
This is something Lu Bohan has mentioned many times in the past two days. Qin Shuangjiang looked at her mother, whose face gradually lost its gentleness and became stern, and had a bad feeling in her heart. But she just comforted herself, maybe she was so nervous because she cared too much.
"Mom, Leng Nuan has learned well, and nothing will go wrong. Don't worry." Qin Shuangjiang said this not to defend her lover, but because Leng Nuan really had nothing to learn.
"I'm sorry, it's Mom who's nervous. Xiao Nuan wasn't scared, was she?" Lu Bohan seemed to be suddenly enlightened. She looked at Leng Nuan with guilt in her eyes. She didn't know why she was so worried and picky recently. Even her teacher said that this child is very capable. Others learn, but she just copies and pastes the original action.
"No, Mom, don't worry, I will never give it to you and embarrass the Qin family."
"Xiao Nuan, it's good to be confident, but don't be too complacent. You should learn more from Xiao Shuang. Her performance at her coming-of-age ceremony was worthy of being a role model."
"Dad, why are you dragging me into this?" Qin Shuangjiang was shocked to hear that she was suddenly compared to him. She almost blurted out a remedy: "Leng Nuan will do better than me, and she has learned a lot in the company recently. She can already help me share some of the work."
“Okay, okay, Dad won’t say anymore. My children are all excellent.” Qin Haoyue praised with a smile, rounding off the conversation. The table was filled with joy again.
Leng Nuan was chewing on bread with her head slightly lowered. Her soft long hair half covered her face, which made Qin Shuangjiang unable to see her expression and wonder what she was thinking.
"Leng Nuan, maybe mom and dad just care too much about this banquet, don't think too much about it." While walking towards the door, Qin Shuangjiang held Leng Nuan's hand and explained anxiously.
"Yeah, it's okay, I know."
Qin Shuangjiang couldn't be sure if Leng Nuan really didn't care. Most of the time, she could see what Leng Nuan was thinking, but sometimes, she seemed to have never understood her on this clean and harmless face.
But no matter whether what Leng Nuan said was true or not, Qin Shuangjiang couldn't really feel at ease at this moment. Because, as a role model of "other people's children" for many years, she lost one friendship after another in such comparisons. And the person in front of her couldn't even accept the thought of losing her.
Leng Nuan could feel that the people around her were uneasy, although she didn't know why. She looked at the two of them still holding hands, and sighed helplessly in her heart, oh, where is the tough, decisive and brave female supporting role? Why is she becoming more and more sentimental every day?
"I'm really fine. Let's go, or we'll be late." Leng Nuan held their hands, exerted a little force, and pulled her towards the door.
The uneasiness in her heart was instantly replaced by a feeling of joy. While Qin Shuangjiang was happy, she suddenly realized that although Leng Nuan looked small, his hands were extremely strong. The force that pulled her forward made her feel unable to break free. Perhaps it was because she had taken the initiative to hold her hand before, so she didn't notice it.
Perhaps because the stone in her heart was pressed down, Qin Shuangjiang's mind began to think about random things. On the way to work, she still looked like she was doing her daily office work, but her mind was no longer on work. Suddenly, such an idea flashed through her mind.
Maybe, maybe if she moved out, she could avoid this problem.
Wait, since they are all going to move out, why not take Leng Nuan with them? Qin Shuangjiang turned her head to look at Leng Nuan who was also reading documents in the car, and then thought about Leng Nuan's tolerance for her. She made an estimate in her mind - it seems feasible!
For an office worker, there is always work to do as long as you want to work, even if you don't know where it comes from.
When Qin Shuangjiang went out for a meeting, Leng Nuan knew that she would not have to come back this morning. She picked up a project contract, and as soon as Qin Shuangjiang left, she followed him out the door and came to the office building of the board of directors on the top floor of the company.
She stood in front of the CFO's office, took a deep breath, and her calm expression turned into a simple one, and she rang the doorbell in a well-behaved manner.
"Second uncle, I hope I didn't disturb you." As the door opened, Leng Nuan stood outside the door, leaned his head inside and asked timidly.
"How can it be a bother? You can come to see Second Uncle, which shows your trust in him." Qin Haoming sat at his desk and waved at her cheerfully. "Silly child, what are you still standing there for? Come in."
"Hey, okay, there are some parts of this contract that I don't quite understand, so I want to ask you for your advice."
Leng Nuan handed the document to Qin Haoming with both hands, complaining at the same time: "Qin Shuangjiang has added a lot of work to me recently. I don't know anything to begin with, and I haven't fully understood the previous ones yet, and she's giving me new ones. She's just deliberately finding fault."
"This morning, my parents scolded me. They said I was inferior to her in everything." When she said this, Leng Nuan's voice was obviously choked, as if she would cry if she said a few more words.
"Xiao Nuan, don't think too much. There are no parents who don't love their children." Qin Haoming looked like an elder trying to comfort him, but he was actually secretly happy. When he saw the contract with a new supply chain that Leng Nuan handed over, Qin Haoming cursed again in his heart.
Is there something wrong with Qin Shuangjiang's brain? She gave such a big and lucrative job to this idiot! She knows nothing! She can't even make money. No, are you really so noble that you want to teach her a lesson and return the huge property of the Qin family to her?
This contract made Qin Haoming alert. Although he was the company's financial director, the company had a clear rule that the general manager had 100% power to appoint personnel. This was the rule set when Qin Haoyue and the Xue family were fighting. Therefore, if Leng Nuan revealed her identity and got shares, it would not be impossible for her to take his place. Even if they couldn't trip him up now, who knows in the future.
"Oh, this contract is indeed a bit complicated. Shuangjiang is really ignorant." Qin Haoming put the contract aside and advised in a deep tone: "You were born to enjoy life. If it weren't for her, you wouldn't have to work so hard to learn these things."
"That's right. I really envy Miss Xue. She doesn't have to do anything. She just goes shopping with her sisters, drinks afternoon tea, and watches operas every day."
Hearing her mention the Xue family, Qin Haoming's eyes lit up, and he struck while the iron was hot: "You, spend less time on work and spend more time with the Xue family. Outsiders are always outsiders, and now your parents and I are watching, but Qin Shuangjiang dares to treat you like this. Don't blame Second Uncle for speaking harshly. What if she becomes the only one in the company a hundred years later, and you will be nothing by then."
"No, it's not that serious. Our family has so much money, and I'm not greedy. Just give me some, and it will be enough for me to live a life of luxury. I have 100 million in pocket money every month now." Leng Nuan said, proudly holding up a finger.
"What's that little money? You've seen too few good things. You've suffered this loss." Humph, useless coward, you don't want overwhelming wealth, why do you want 100 million. Seeing Leng Nuan still talking so proudly, Qin Haoming tried hard not to roll his eyes in contempt.
"What's your mere one million? You can't even afford a toilet in the capital." Although he tried to hold back his eyes, Qin Haoming still couldn't help but complain.
"Do you know how much Qin Shuangjiang is worth now?"
"Ah? I haven't thought about it." Leng Nuan answered blankly.
"..."
"Even if you count the smaller ones, it will still start at several billion. Ten billion in the future is only a matter of time, and all of this originally belonged to you." Qin Haoming originally wanted to use this to provoke Leng Nuan, but as soon as he finished speaking, he became envious and jealous. Isn't it just a good rebirth!
Forget it, at least he achieved his goal. He watched Leng Nuan's expression change from dull to angry when he found out he was deceived, and knew that he had acted correctly.
He said, how could anyone really be indifferent to such a huge fortune. Only Qin Shuangjiang, that weirdo, could do such a thing.
"Uncle, what should I do? Oh, I can tell my parents. They are the ones with the most power in the company now. They won't ignore me..."
"Idiot!" Qin Haoming shouted in a hurry. Seeing Leng Nuan's red eyes, he quickly explained, "Ah, no, what Second Uncle meant is that your parents are kind and compassionate. Even if Qin Shuangjiang did something wrong, after all, they have been by their side for so many years, and they trust her quite a lot. Your words are groundless, and she can easily use them against you."
"What Second Uncle said makes sense. So what should I do now?"
"You are like this..."
When Leng Nuan returned to the office, he unexpectedly found that Qin Shuangjiang had returned at this time.
"Where have you been?"
"What's wrong with your eyes?"
"Did someone bully you?"
Seeing the person coming back, Qin Shuangjiang was happy to go to greet him. However, when he got closer, he discovered something incredible and the expression on his face immediately turned cold as ice.
"Ah, no, my eyes are a little itchy, I rubbed them."
Qin Shuangjiang stood in front of her, bent his knees, held her face, and looked at her carefully, only then did he confirm that she did not look like she was crying.
"Well, the seasons are changing, be careful." Qin Shuangjiang loosened his grip somewhat unnaturally after realizing that their posture was a bit ambiguous. "Where did you go just now?"
"There are some things I don't quite understand, so I'll go ask Secretary Yin." Leng Nuan shook the contract in his hand.
Well, she did say that if there was anything you didn't understand at work, you could go to Secretary Yin if she wasn't there. Qin Shuangjiang was about to go back to work, but she found Leng Nuan looking at her intently, which made her heart beat faster.
"What? What's wrong?"
"Ah, nothing, I just think you are so great at managing this big company." Leng Nuan's eyes were shining and full of admiration.
Hey, she's praising her! Qin Shuangjiang tried hard to control her excitement and answered stutteringly, "It's okay, thanks to the help and efforts of my parents and everyone else. It's not just me, me, who has made this possible."
"Thank you for your hard work. Our family depends on you."
Qin Shuangjiang didn't hear the hidden meaning in her words. At this moment, her mind was filled with the three words "our home, our home"!
"Can I leave work early today?"
"Sure!" Wait, is this what he's praising her for? His excitement instantly cooled down. "What are you skipping work for?"
"I have to go to my dad's place today, please~" Leng Nuan moved closer to her, holding the contract in his left hand, and pulling her sleeve with his right fingers, shaking it gently.
Sure, there's nothing she can't give!
Leng Nuan said that she didn't lie to her, she just went to the company and came to this restaurant again. At this time, Xue Chenjing, who was sitting opposite her, seemed to be in a good mood today, not the fake smile he usually put on.
"It's really not easy to ask you out. I thought you were going to stand me up again."
"Mr. Xue, you're joking. They say there's no such thing as a third time. If it happens again, it will really be my fault."
"It's too formal to call you Mr. Xue. We are friends now, right?"
"you're right."
Xue Chenjing looked expectantly at the shy girl opposite him, and said in a clear and melodious voice, "Xue Chenjing, which set meal do you want to order?"
"..." Although he was speechless for a moment, Xue Chenjing soon became happy. Interesting, this was the first time he met such a pure and straightforward girl. Don't say it, this is quite unique.
What he didn't know was that the girl, who was looking at the menu seriously at this moment, had already made a decision in her mind that would affect everyone.
"System, turn off this monitoring prompt." Leng Nuan pointed to the progress barcode that looked like the PK value in his mind.
