Xie Zhanan moved to stand in front of Xie Nian, feeling a little conflicted. He had given a portion of Jiang Wanning’s drafts to Xie Zhizhi and asked her to imitate and modify it into a different design. If one didn’t know Jiang Wanning well enough, they wouldn’t be able to tell.
“Since Father is unwilling, let’s forget it. Aunt Wang, please send the guest out.”
Seeing that Xie Nian was about to disappear from his sight, Xie Zhanan shouted anxiously, “Sure, but I want both your brother and your shares.”
Xie Nian’s expression was cold. Although she had expected this outcome, she didn’t expect that after six years, her already hard heart would still be moved.
Although the value of her mother’s drafts was no longer as high as when she was alive, it was still the only thing her mother left behind before she passed away. Yet, it could not compare to the shares of the Nian Cheng Corporation.
It was really ridiculous and pitiful. Fortunately, her mother could not see Xie Zhanan’s true face.
“Sure, let’s meet in two days then. You give me the drafts and I’ll give you the shares. You can choose where to meet when the time comes.”
Just after Xie Zhanan and the others left, Xie Cheng rushed over from the outside.
He looked Xie Nian up and down and saw that she was not injured at all. He then heaved a sigh of relief.
“What’s wrong? What did you hear?”
“Xie Zhanan had barely arrived at the Jiang Family Courtyard and the rumors were already spreading like wildfire in Jiang Capital.”
“It seems like Nian Cheng Corporation is still a popular company in the eyes of those people. So many people are eyeing the shares.”
Looking at the cold Xie Nian, Xie Cheng swallowed his saliva and asked slowly, “Are you going to reel in the net?”
He didn’t know how Xie Zhanan had provoked Xie Nian, but this was the first time he had seen Xie Nian reveal her emotions. It actually felt like Mother was the one standing in front of him.
He kept feeling like he should submit.
“Father, what did you say? Why are you giving them the drafts? That concerns whether I can hold on to my position as the design director in the future. What kind of spell did Xie Nian use to bewitch you?”
“What do you know? If we have the shares, even if we don’t have these positions, we will still have some say in Nian Cheng Corporation.”
Xie Zhizhi’s face was red with anger. Her entire body was trembling as she shouted, “You didn’t even consider my feelings at all. I need the position of the design director. I need those drafts.
You are a selfish person who only cares about your own interests. Without these positions, so what if you have shares? The Nian Cheng Corporation would still not belong to the Xie Family. “
Pa!
Xie Zhizhi’s face turned to the other side due to the inertia. It was burning with pain and her tears fell uncontrollably. She didn’t expect Xie Zhanan to actually hit her.
“Zhizhi, your father must be feeling upset too. He’s just angry at that thoughtless Xie Nian. He’s not targeting you on purpose. Don’t take it to heart.”
Xia Chu was also frightened by Xie Zhanan’s behavior. He had used all his strength in the slap. Xie Zhizhi’s face swelled visibly.
“Get lost. Don’t touch me. You’re on his side. Stop the car. I want to go down.”
The chauffeur was trembling with fear. Ever since he became the chauffeur of the Xie family, not only did he get little money from his work, he had to suffer from the anger of these young ladies and young masters all day long. He was also unlucky to be on duty today.
Seeing that Xie Zhizhi didn’t understand his good intentions, Xie Zhanan shouted angrily, “Tell her to get lost and don’t come back again. I, Xie Zhanan, don’t lack such a daughter.”
Xia Chu quickly patted Xie Zhanan’s back and helped him calm down. She gave Xie Zhizhi a look, indicating for her to go out and lie low for a while. She could come back in a few days after Xie Zhanan’s anger dissipated.
“Xie Zhanan, I know that you’re angry, but don’t hit our child. Our child wants to make a name for herself too. Isn’t this a good thing? You have to give our child a chance.”
Xie Zhanan understood Xia Chu’s words. “See if you have money on you. If not, let me know. You can come back after playing outside for a few days.”
“Alright, I’ll arrange it.”
This scene naturally fell into Xie Nian’s eyes. She liked watching dogfights the most.
Xie Zhizhi was good at everything, except that she didn’t know herself well. She was also the one who started proclaiming herself as the bluestocking in Jiang Capital.
Xie Nian looked towards the place where Xie Zhizhi went and smiled. Since the prey had fallen into the hunter’s trap, it shouldn’t blame the hunter for being ruthless..
