Within two weeks, all of the paperwork for MN Group’s move back to the country was completed. Most of the small problems arising from their move were also dealt with.

Ji Nuan decided to temporarily fix their company’s headquarters in the western city district. She also purchased two office buildings that were thirty-story tall and located near the original business building.

In the past few years, as the company was being established, she had to attend a lot of business gatherings. As a result, Ji Nuan’s alcohol tolerance had risen sharply. Right now, she was no longer the same old trash that collapsed onto the table after one or two drinks. However, she still instinctively disliked drinking.

After returning back to the country, Ji Nuan took a period to nourish her body. She did not drink, nor did she attend any business gatherings. Aside from having a single dinner gathering with all of her long-time employees, all she did was work in the day and returned home at night. She rose early and slept early and arranged a neat structure to her life. Her body condition naturally improved from when she first returned.

By this month, Xia Tian was ready to go into labor. At times, she would hold onto her waist as she struggled to walk. Even so, she refused to rest at all. Ji Nuan decided to arrange an office for her and instructed her to stay in there obediently and read through some company documents. She did not hand her any other work to worry about.

As Ji Nuan had yet to pick a vice-president replacement, she needed to handle a lot of small matters personally.

For example, a property and construction exhibition was being held in Hai City’s exhibition center this Friday. As there were quite some city leaders attending, most of the large property and construction companies were sending their people to attend. Xia Tian was unable to attend such an event, and Ji Nuan naturally had to participate in her stead.

“Boss, I heard that there’ll be a lot of Hai City’s business elite attending this time. Aside from an exhibition, there will also be an auction bidding. The city tourism board has also invited all of the guests to have a two-night trial stay at Hai City’s newly built seaside resort. The invited guest list is rather short, so I won’t be able to follow you there...”

“What two-night trial stay?”

“For the past few years, hasn’t Hai City been expanding its tourism sector? The government and tourism board partnered up with several famous large companies to construct this seaside resort. The resort is about to be open to the public, but before that, they wish to invite all of the business elites as guests. To put it simply, it’s to invite all the outstanding individuals to have a stay and to advertise their resort for free. After all, a place that so many influential figures have visited will definitely be very popular to the public.”

“We’ll head to the exhibition first. As for the invitation for the trial stay, we’ll talk about it later.” Ji Nuan placed the invitation down and gave Xiao Ba another glance: “If you wish to go, why don’t you go in my stead?”

Xiao Ba pursed her lips. “Everyone attending will be of outstanding background. In our company, you and Sister Xia are suitable to attend. Both of you are at least the CEO and vice-president. If a personal assistant like me attends, wouldn’t everyone be rolling their eyes at our MN Group?”

Ji Nuan could not resist a smile at Xiao Ba’s choice of words. She glanced at her. “All of the business elites should know that each day is filled with opportunities. Who would have the spare time to attend such an event?”

“The provincial and city leaders are putting their face on the line. No matter how busy they are, there’ll definitely be people attending, even if it’s only for a while.”

Ji Nuan did not say more. There were still two days to Friday, and there was no point in worrying. As Xiao Ba had said, she would similarly show her face for a short while and call it a day.

“Boss, you have to take this seriously. Previously, Sister Xia chatted about this with me briefly. I’m afraid you’re not fully aware of how much the business circle in Hai City has changed. All of the corporations you are familiar with have either all shutdown or were acquired by other companies. You may meet a lot of unfamiliar people, and you may be less aware of Hai City’s current situation. The government and business world have linked arms and directed their focus onto the thriving property industry. This event definitely has to be taken seriously.”

“All right, all right, all right. I’ll go. I’ll definitely go. I’ll take it seriously, and I definitely won’t skimp on the effort. All right?” Ji Nuan clicked her tongue and tossed the document folder into her arms. “In the future, you should spend less time with Xia Tian. You’ve actually managed to learn the way she nags.”

“Then you’ll have to dress up well. Don’t be too careless...”

Ji Nuan tossed her another glance. Xiao Ba immediately took a large step forward and speedily escaped from the office before Ji Nuan could push her out of the window in annoyance.

...

The unfortunate truth was that on Friday afternoon, Ji Nuan was hauled back home by Xia Tian and Xiao Ba.

Xia Tian had already ordered a gown for Ji Nuan. It was a sky-blue strapless evening gown. The color was clean, vivid, and it matched Ji Nuan’s taste.

However, Ji Nuan could not comprehend why the two were so anxious about an exhibition. They kept reminding her to take things seriously and to dress up well. It was afternoon, and they had already forced her home to try on her gown and do her hair. They even prepared matching shoes.

Ji Nuan deeply suspected that the two were not planning to send her off to an event, but to a blind date.

After being forced to change her clothes, Ji Nuan was pushed onto the stylist chair, and her hair was styled into a simple updo. When she stood up, Xiao Ba immediately cried out from the back, “My god, you’re too beautiful. Most people would struggle to pull off this shade of blue. Your skin is truly too white. Uuu... I truly feel envious and jealous. On you, this color looks stunning! Your beauty drives one to death! To death, I say!”

Xiao Ba stomped her feet in agitation as she spoke. She then turned to Xia Tian with a mischievous glint in her eyes as she giggled.

Ji Nuan glanced at her indifferently: “What exactly are the both of you hiding from me? Isn’t this a simple exhibition?”

“It is an exhibition. But these sorts of exhibition gathering the elite occurs rarely. You’re the backbone of our company and have just entered Forbes’ ranking this year. There are so many people curious about you. Since you’ve returned to the country, and it’s your first time attending such a grand event, you have to protect the face of our company, don’t you think so?” Xia Tian stared at Ji Nuan’s neck as she spoke: “Isn’t there something missing?”

“It does feel lacking in some ways...” Xiao Ba was also staring at Ji Nuan’s neck: “Your collarbone is beautiful. If only there were a charming diamond in the center to compliment it...”

Ji Nuan’s eyelids twitched. Before she could speak, the two had already charged into her bedroom. They spent a long time flipping through her room but still did not manage to find any accessories. Just as Xia Tian began ranting about the lack of jewelry in Ji Nuan’s room, Xiao Ba opened the drawer in the center. A beat later, she declared loudly, “I found it!”

Ji Nuan: “...”
