Chapter 99: Meeting
hou Zhi Ran's arms. "Thank you, aunt," she whispered.Zhou Zhiruo patted Guan Xin Yue's back, "Don't worry, you are the daughter-in-law I have always recognized, and I will always be on your side."Guan...Guan Xin Yue had stayed at home, recuperating peacefully for a few days. Hearing that Xing Ran's boss agreed to meet with the potential business partners, Guan Xin Yue curled her lips into a smile.
This time, I finally got to see her.
This company, Xingran, had been a thorn in her side for years. She had sent several people to investigate it before, but they always came back empty-handed. The owner was a mystery, and so was the perfumer. It was as if they were deliberately trying to keep their identities hidden.
She wanted to see for herself what kind of person this mysterious boss was.
……
Two cars stopped successively in front of the hotel entrance.
The doorman hurried over. Shen Jiao Xue was dressed in a fashionable suit and got out of the car, rushing to help Guan Xin Yue who got out from the other side.
Guan Xin Yue's leg injury worsened, and she walked with a limp.
That night, both of them were thrown to the outskirts. Shen Jiaoxue was luckier than Guan Xin Yue; she had no injuries and could walk normally, unlike Guan Xin Yue who was a mess.
Shen Ningran sat in the back of the car, watching the two people. Her clear eyes narrowed slightly.
The car stalled, and Shen Ningran got out of the vehicle.
She wore a sophisticated and stylish suit. Her black fitted blazer cinched at the waist, paired with a solid-color silk blouse. The collar flowed naturally over her chest, and the tailored trousers hugged her long, slender legs.
The doorman had seen many elegant women, but at this moment, he couldn't help but be slightly taken aback. Shen Ningran handed him the car keys and politely said, "Thank you."
The two women walking ahead heard the voice that made them hate it to their bones. Their steps faltered, they turned around and saw Shen Ningran striding into the hotel.
Shen Ningran knew they saw her, but she didn't want to acknowledge them and walked straight in.
"Miss Shen, how could you be here" Guan Xin Yue's gentle voice wanted to stop Shen Ning Ran.
Shen Ningran acted as if she hadn't heard, ignoring him completely.
When she's alone, she can't wait to run her over with a car. But when there are people around, she acts like best friends with her. Shen Ningran really doesn't want to see their insincere and hypocritical behavior.
"Hey, Shen Ningran, can't you hear Xin Yuejie calling you" Shen Jiaoxue stepped forward and reached out to stop Shen Ningran.
You look like you deserve to die for ignoring my princess.
Shen Ningran was truly about to be amused by Shen Jiaoxue's antics. Having been spoiled in the Shen family for so many years, she perversely loved to stay by Guan Xinyue's side as a maid. It was rather amusing when you thought about it.
"Is there anything"
Guan Xinyue limped forward, her eyes cold as she looked at her. However, the expression on her face was unusually kind. "It's nothing, it's just that we seem to run into each other everywhere we go. It feels a bit too coincidental."
Shen Ningran glanced at her coldly.
Of course not a coincidence.
Isn't that what they put all their thought and effort into, to make her come
"Do you mean I'm tracking you"
"Of course, that wasn't what I meant. I was just curious why Ms. Shen suddenly appeared here."
"I don't think I need to report to you where I am," Shen Ningran said coldly, without leaving any room for explanation.
Guanxi Yue twitched the corners of her mouth, her expression unchanged, but her eyes were filled with hatred.
Shen Jiao Xue rolled her eyes, putting all the resentment on display. "Shen Ning Ran, Xin Yue spoke to you politely, and this is how you respond"
Shen Ningran's eyes fell on Shen Jiaoxue, "Otherwise Do I have to coax you like a younger sister"
Then, Shen Jiaoxue wanted to say something more, but Guan Xinyue stopped her. "Alright Jiaoxue, let's go."
She didn't come today to fight with Shen Ningran, but to see Xing Ran's boss.
Before leaving, Shen Jiaoxue glanced at Shen Ningran's attire and sneered, "Think wearing a fancy suit makes you the boss What gives you the right"
Shen Ning blinked her eyes lightly.
Oh, dear. What a coincidence!
Shen Ningran let out a cold smile in her heart. Her phone rang, and she walked aside to answer it. "Hmm... It's nothing, no rush, be careful."
After finishing the call, Shen Ningran hung up. Today she was accompanied by the project manager who was originally in charge of liaising with this business partner, but he was stuck in traffic now. Shen Ningran glanced at the time and, before proceeding, stepped into the elevator.
Shen Jiao Xue supported Guan Xin Yue as they arrived at the agreed upon private room. A few people from the cooperating company were already there. Since someone had notified them beforehand, they weren't surprised by Guan Xin Yue and her arrival. They politely greeted them with a few words.
In the quaint and elegant private room, a decorated screen stood beside it.
Shen Jiao Xue supported Guan Xin Yue to walk behind the screen and waited for someone from Xing Ran's side.
Shen Jiao Xue raised a skeptical eyebrow. "Xinyue Jie, are you sure she's really coming She was so mysterious before, skipping every event and refusing to show her face. Is she some kind of hideous monster That's the only reason I can think of for why she wouldn't want to be seen."
Guan Xin Yue curled her lips into a sarcastic smile. "Does it matter if she's a monster As long as we know who she is and investigate her background, a small company owner like her wouldn't even last a minute against my father."
Shen Jiao Xue laughed happily, "Xin Yue jie is right, nothing deserves to compete with us."
"By the way, I asked you to check on that woman who got out of Ajin's car downstairs from Xingran Building that day. Did you find anything"
Shen Jiao Xue nodded, opened her phone and handed it to Guan Xin Yue earnestly, "Xin Yue jie, I later asked around, someone took a picture of that woman's back, but it was a bit blurry and hard to recognize."
Guan Xinyue took the phone, zooming in and out repeatedly, examining it carefully. She felt like she'd seen it before.
"Do you have a feeling that this person resembles Shen Ningran"
"Shen Ningran"
Shen Jiao Xue sneered, "Xin Yue sister, you think too highly of her. After returning to China, she's been a jobless vagrant the whole time. How could she possibly work at Xing Ran"
Guan Xin Yue's brows deepened a few points, with a hint of coldness in her eyes, "No matter who she is, daring to seduce A Jin, I will have to pull her out."
She's too powerful for me to deal with right now. I can still handle a sly fox like her, though.
"Yes, I'll go back and look for someone else."
After chatting for a while, Shen Jiaxue crossed her arms and said不滿ingly, "Where is that person Won't he come"
Guan Xin Yue also worried, what if she really doesn't come, they would have worked for nothing.
Just then, the slightly ajar door creaked open, and everyone in the private room turned to face the entrance.ngran clenched her hand tightly, hugging Bo Yucheng hard and patting his back. "Okay, Mommy knows. It's alright now. No one will bully you again. Mommy will protect you."If she had the chance, she wou...
