In the afternoon, Mrs. Xu said goodbye to them, happy and smiling.

Ji Mengran stood in the street, looking at Ji Nuan, who turned around and glanced at her with a cold look. Ji Mengran’s face whitened with anger.

Mrs. Xu didn’t say a word to Ji Mengran before leaving but held Ji Nuan’s hand and chatted with her. From what they talked about, it could be seen that Mrs. Xu would invest her money in MN Group.

“Ji Nuan, where did you learn this bewitching skill? How did Mrs. Xu get bewitched by you with a few words?” Ji Mengran asked angrily.

Ji Nuan walked to the roadside to hail a taxi, saying coldly, “In fact, in the beginning, Mrs. Xu wanted to help you to develop the studio. Can’t you tell that she had a good impression on you when you were a kid? MN Group does not lack money, so she planned to help you.”

Ji Mengran froze. Mrs. Xu was nice to her at first, but then she was...

“But you’re too stupid. You know how important this investment is to you, but you didn’t even do your ‘homework.’ You don’t even know what Mrs. Xu likes.” Ji Nuan smiled. “She was very close to her husband, who was killed in a major case that shocked the whole antique circle a few years ago, so Mrs. Xu is particularly averse to antique paintings, calligraphy, and similar things. She managed the investment company by herself for many years. Do you think she would lack a watch? It’s pointless and cheesy for you to give her something like this, which will only make her unhappy.”

“Besides...” Ji Nuan glance at Ji Mengran’s outfits. “Although I know you are not short of money now, after all, you have Sheng Yihan as your sugar daddy, but you really don’t have to be dressed like today. What’s the point for you to wear so extravagantly to see Mrs. Xu? She wanted to help you because your studio really needs the money right now, but you kept showing her how rich you are and wasting her last compassion for you.”

Hearing her words, Ji Mengran glared at Ji Nuan and shouted angrily, “What makes you so sure what Mrs. Xu was thinking?”

Ji Nuan smiled and tilted her head, but her eyes were cold. “Of course, I don’t know what she was thinking, but after all this time, I learned that if you want to please someone, you got to cater to their pleasure. Send a gift, who can’t? Didn’t you see I sent her gifts too?”

“You mean the two pieces of trash you gave her?” Ji Mengran sneered.

“Trash?” Ji Nuan coldly glanced at her. “It’s not up to you whether they are trash or not. You really didn’t do any ‘homework,’ did you? Not only did you know nothing about Mrs. Xu, but you also knew nothing about her preferences. Don’t you know Mrs. Xu is childless? She has always been very fond of children, so she often does charity to support some children with difficult lives. Charity is her favorite cause, and MN Group has been doing charity in recent years as she did. We shared a common interest, which is why you couldn’t cut in.”

Ji Mengran clenched her hands until her fingers turned purple. She managed to calm herself down from swearing in the street.

Ji Nuan said, “And, the point is that Mrs. Xu believed in Buddhism. She often worshiped the Buddha at home. There is even a specially built Buddhist hall in her home, which shows how pious she is. None of these things I sent were valuable. They didn’t even add up to fifty yuan, much cheaper than your million-yuan watch, but I just managed to please her with less than fifty yuan. What, are you unreconciled?”

With that, without looking at Ji Mengran’s incredulous look, Ji Nuan pulled open the door of the taxi parked in front of her, got in, and left. Just as the poem went, ‘Gently, I flicked my sleeves. Not even a wisp of cloud would I bring away.’

Ji Mengran stood dumbstruck.

A few days later, MN Group received a new document from the government.

After all, the real estate industry was connected with many government agencies, including the construction bureau and other agencies. MN Group was relatively free when it was abroad, but now that it had moved its headquarters back to China and just returned, they had to obey the government’s instructions, building the buildings the government wanted them to build, and participating in the projects the government wanted them to participate.

Ji Nuan looked at the newly issued document, lost in thought.

Needless to say, the Shine Group was a very influential enterprise both in the US and Hai City. Although MN Group was developing very well, it was no match for the Shine Group. To her surprise, the government actually asked MN Group and Shine Group to jointly rebuild Hai City Stadium iinto the largest provincial-level stadium in China.

In fact, it was easy to understand the government’s intentions. They couldn’t control Shine Group nor MN Group, so if the government wanted to get the upper hand over the two companies, they needed to work out a way to let them check and balance each other.

And this was a good chance for checks and balances.

But the government officials didn’t know, even if the Shine Group had grown so powerfully that no power could control it, Ji Nuan had no interest in competing with it. She just wanted to stay away from Shine Group as far as possible and develop her own company well.

But the government officials didn’t think this way. They certainly didn’t want any company to become even more influential than the government.

Especially the Mo family and the Shine Group. Mo Jingshen stamping his feet casually would make all the coastal cities around shake. The government feared his power and longed to contain him, but dared not do it blatantly, so they targeted the MN Group and used it as a tool.

Ji Nuan knew the government’s intentions, but if she wanted MN Group to gain a firm foothold in Hai City, she couldn’t refuse it.

Xia Tian had been home to prepare for labor, so she didn’t come to the company these days. Seeing Ji Nuan remain silent and deadpan after reading the released document, Xiao Ba approached her cautiously, wondering what she was going to do.

But Ji Nuan remained expressionless. Xiao Ba couldn’t tell whether she was angry or what, but judging by the way she threw the document on her desk, she knew Ji Nuan was in a bad mood.

It might be fine being used as a gun by the government. MN Group was not afraid of any other companies anyway.

But the other party was Shine Group, which was the last company Ji Nuan wanted to cooperate with.

Even if Mo Jingshen didn’t handle this project in person, she would meet him anyways, who was the Shine Group’s boss.
