Chapter 164: Ye Jinghuai’s Discovery of Conscience
Chapter 164
The project at Guangming Building is progressing rapidly according to An Nuan's schedule.
The promotion is being spread vigorously across various platforms.
It has attracted the attention of many people.
Tong Zhitong's expression noticeably changes as she watches the news that has become so popular.
She questions An Yankun, "Didn't I ask you to stop An Nuan's project? Now you're putting out so many advertisements and promotions. Are you trying to drive me crazy?"
"An Nuan is not as simple as you think! Besides, An Nuan's father is the chairman of An's Group, An Yanyuan. If An Nuan complains to her dad, who dares to stop her?" Naturally, An Yankun doesn't take the responsibility upon himself and insists that An Nuan is relying on her father's support.
Tong Zhitong is clearly angry, but she doesn't doubt An Yankun's excuse. She coldly says, "Anyway, you have to find a way to control An Nuan. If I don't go along with her, I lose confidence. If I do, I'm wasting my money. I don't want to suffer too much loss because of An Nuan. She doesn't deserve it!"
"Don't worry, I won't let you be in a difficult position," An Yankun says. "I just received firsthand information. An Nuan plans to approach Wen Shan as the spokesperson for Guangming Building."
"Wen Shan?!" Tong Zhitong frowns. "She's going too far."
"I told you, An Nuan is now taking advantage of being An Yanyuan's daughter in the company. She doesn't treat An's money as real money; she only cares about performance. So I think instead of confronting her directly, it's better to take advantage of the situation. If she uses Wen Shan, who is the top star in the entertainment industry, and succeeds, the status of Guangming Building will truly rise. But if she fails and you succeed instead, think about whose business circle would be more valuable?" An Yankun gives his opinion.
"Are you suggesting that I sign Wen Shan before An Nuan makes a move?"
"I can reserve some time for you. I predict that in the next two days, An Nuan will send the people from the advertising and media department to negotiate. You should negotiate before that, and I guarantee that An Nuan won't be able to snatch it away," An Yankun says cunningly.
Tong Zhitong hesitates.
After all, whether this project will be carried out or not is still being decided by Xingyao Group. If they don't proceed, she will have already signed a high-value endorsement, resulting in a pure economic loss. But if they don't sign, it's true that their business value will be inferior to Guangming Building.
Now what she needs to do is to completely overshadow An Nuan in all aspects, making sure that An Nuan doesn't gain any advantage.
"Think it over," An Yankun seems to sense Tong Zhitong's hesitation and chooses to retreat.
Tong Zhitong's eyes narrow.
Since they are both trying to deal with An Nuan, they must strive for perfection.
She firmly declares, "I know what to do. Keep a close eye on An Nuan for me."
"Don't worry," An Yankun replies coldly.
As Tong Zhitong hangs up the phone, she dials another number.
"Miss Tong," the voice on the other end is extremely respectful.
"Help me find out if An's Group intends to cooperate with Wen Shan."
"Yes."
"Let me know immediately if there's any news."
"Yes."
Tong Zhitong naturally didn't trust An Yankun. It wasn't because she thought An Yankun would turn against her and join forces with An Nuan to deal with her, but because she was afraid that An Nuan would play tricks on her.
Having grown up in the business world, she knew all too well how cunning and treacherous people could be in the business arena.
...
An Nuan didn't return until almost 11 p.m.
Three consecutive days of overwhelming work had left An Nuan feeling exhausted.
Just the thought of going back and being bossed around by Ye Jinghuai, that old man, made her seriously consider running away from home.
Home...
What did Ye Jinghuai's home count as?
In the end, she still went back.
Uncle Zhong was still waiting for her at home.
It always felt inexplicably warm.
After having the bird's nest, An Nuan went back to her room.
She pushed open the door.
Sure enough, Ye Jinghuai was lying on the bed again, with the look of waiting for her to serve him.
"Do you need to pee?" An Nuan asked straight away.
She really knew Ye Jinghuai's habits too well.
"No."
"Do you need to wipe your body?"
"No."
"Do you want a massage?"
"No."
"Do you want to scratch an itch?"
"No."
"Did you take your medicine today?" An Nuan frowned.
Did this guy have a change of heart?!
"I did." Ye Jinghuai answered seriously.
After leaving the hospital, the doctor prescribed some antibiotics for him to take every day.
Of course, the meaning of "medicine" for the two of them was definitely different.
An Nuan scrutinized Ye Jinghuai and said, "Tell me, what do you want now?"
Deep down, she didn't believe that Ye Jinghuai could be so kind.
"I want to take a shower." Ye Jinghuai said straightforwardly.
"Ye Jinghuai, you can't say one thing and do another."
"What are you thinking?" Ye Jinghuai was speechless under An Nuan's gaze.
"I'm afraid you took the wrong medicine today."
"Are you looking forward to being bossed around by me every day?" Ye Jinghuai suddenly smiled wickedly. "Tell me, Miss An, when did you start liking me? Now that I'm not bossing you around, do you feel neglected?"
"You're crazy." An Nuan cursed.
He really was that arrogant and sarcastic man.
An Nuan turned around and walked straight into the bathroom.
Ye Jinghuai watched her back and his lips curled up slightly.
He looked at the message from Qin Jiang on his phone, "It's confirmed, Tong Zhitong is indeed intentionally targeting An Nuan."
Ye Jinghuai read the message but didn't reply.
Qin Jiang sent another one, "Whose side are you on?"
The chat message was in a group.
Actually, there were only three people in it.
Ye Jinghuai, Qin Jiang, and Xiao Nanchen.
Xiao Nanchen replied, "Do you even need to ask?"
"I can't figure out Ye Jinghuai's thoughts, so I have to make sure." Qin Jiang's tone was obviously ambiguous.
It was because Ye Jinghuai was still resentful about something that he was willing to give up his life for An Nuan.
"Don't take action for now." Ye Jinghuai typed with one hand. "Just keep an eye on it."
"Are you trying to test someone?" Qin Jiang asked.
Ye Jinghuai didn't offer an explanation.
But he really wanted to know where An Nuan's ability lay!
Ye Jinghuai put down his phone and watched as An Nuan emerged from the bathroom after taking a shower.
Every time she finished showering, her face would be flushed.
And then...
Ye Jinghuai's throat constricted.
An Nuan calmly lay down next to Ye Jinghuai and fell asleep.
Work was exhausting, and sometimes she could fall asleep as soon as she lay down.
Besides, what if Ye Jinghuai did something bizarre in the middle of the night? What would she do then?!
Getting a little more sleep was better.
In the quiet darkness,
Just as An Nuan was about to enter the realm of dreams,
"Do you need my help?"
An Nuan was startled awake by Ye Jinghuai's voice.
