“She deserved it. Who asked her to look down on others. No wonder she dared to bring her lawyers here to demand to terminate the contract. She didn’t even get to the bottom of our studio’s background before coming here to bully others.”

Xiao Ba spat in contempt toward the door. When she turned back, she saw Ji Nuan standing there, looking deep in thought.

“Boss Nuan, will we really be getting two hundred million dollars’ worth of investment?” Xiao Ba’s eyes were filled with anticipation. She ran back, as though wanting to latch onto Ji Nuan’s big thigh and pressed closed to Ji Nuan’s side.

Ji Nuan was silent for a moment before saying, “Go call the police and let them bring Supervisor Xu away. She is suspected of misappropriating our company’s funds. If there are any other possible crimes, they need to be carefully investigated as well, but hand her over to the police first.”

Xiao Ba was in shock for a moment. She then asked at a volume only Ji Nuan could hear, “A few days ago, when you had me privately investigate Supervisor Xu’s situation, could it be that you had already suspected her?”

Ji Nuan threw her a heavy glance. “With your reaction speed, you wouldn’t understand what has happened even if the company has already been sold. Why are you pretending to be smart with me right now? I asked you to call the police, hurry up with it.”

“Oh.” Xiao Ba looked at her, feeling wronged. Her fingers still moved quickly as she dialed the number for the nearest police station.

Two hours later.

After she had signed a contract worth two hundred million US dollars with CE International Investment Agency, this initially small and unknown studio under Ji Nuan’s name became Hai Cheng’s most wealthy ‘small’ studio.

In less than an hour, the phone on Ji Nuan’s desk almost exploded from the number of calls they received.

Most of them were phone calls from prior investors expressing their concern. They mentioned that they wanted to arrange a time to meet Ji Nuan and discuss increasing the investment amount personally. Some even expressed their sincerity over the phone, saying they had always found Han Tianyuan unreliable and that they had been looking forward to cooperating with Ji Nuan ever since she took over, etc.

After receiving too many phone calls, she finally had some time to rest. Ji Nuan was about to pour herself some water when the phone in her pocket began to ring.

When she took it out, she saw that it was a call from Mo Jingshen.

Earlier on, she had been worried that he would be busy and did not contact him. Now, he was actually taking the initiative to call her.

She returned to her desk and sat down. After picking up the call, she immediately said, “You suddenly sent two representatives from CE Investment Agency to sign a contract with me. Why didn’t you mention it to me beforehand? Smashing people with money without warning, you almost scared me to death, all right?”

“Your little heart is too poor at receiving shocks. It’s just an investment contract.” The man’s voice came from the phone; his tone husky and sexy.

Ji Nuan really could not hold it in. She complained about all the earlier phone calls she had received, as well as the disgusting, materialistic lips of those people.

She then said: “The most important point is that all the investors who initially intended to withdraw their investments are all now fighting to maintain it. All I have is a small studio. If things continue like this, the amount of money being pumped in will be enough for me to set up a company with shareholders.”

Mo Jingshen chuckled lightly. “Mrs. Mo has great ambition. The road ahead is long. I have to lend you a helping hand somehow.”

“…” Boss Mo, this is not just a helping hand, ah.

Since the contract was already signed, Ji Nuan did not have the mood to be pampered. She directly said, “It’s just that, I suddenly feel slightly pressured.”

“Have pressure is a good thing. It means that Mrs. Mo hasn’t lost her direction yet,” Mo Jingshen said softly. “You should be aware of it; the reason I had CE’s people head there rather showing up myself personally, as well as having you sign the contract, means that sum of money invested isn’t meant to sit there for nothing.”

“Of course, I know.” Ji Nuan held her chin as she leaned on the desk. She pressed the phone against her ear. Her voice was clear and gentle in a way that one would not get sick of it. “So, from the surface, it seems like I’ve obtained a large sum of investment. But what actually happened was that I suddenly gained a debt of two hundred million. Furthermore, with the contract given to me by CE, I also had to sign a condition of doubling their profits within five years or the money will be taken back.”

Mo Jingshen calmly said, “It’s good that you know.”

Ji Nuan held her forehead…

Inside the studio, the people were celebrating the arrival of this significant investment. Only she alone was aware of the enormous debt she was now shouldering, and the debtor was actually her own husband.

The methods Mo Jingshen used without batting a single eyelid; his every step, was such that she could not say no.

The work was handled professionally, and the contract was also signed by CE’s representative; it was not made out to be like a child’s play.

In this way, Mo Jingshen had actually respected her initial wishes. He did not interfere, nor did he get involved. This sum of money was not given for free.

Hearing the sounds of the little woman collapsing on the table as she sighed loudly, Mo Jingshen chuckled softly and said, “Previously, weren’t you very confident in the country’s property industry prospects?”

“Of course, I’m still confident about it. But the pressure is suddenly so big. This is no longer a small case worth a few tens of millions…”

“It’s just doubling it within five years, what’s wrong? You don’t have the guts to take it on?”

“I’ve already signed it! I have to have the guts, ah!”

Mo Jingshen lightly chuckled. “All right, head home soon. I’ll pick you up at the Yu Garden before six.”

After work hours, Ji Nuan drove back to the Yu Garden as promised.

After alighting from the car, she was deep in thought about work as she walked into the Yu Garden. After opening the door, she did not look back as she closed it. She threw her bag onto the table, changed her shoes, walked into the living room, and removed her coat.

The Yu Garden was large. The living room on the first floor had more than 200 square feet of space. Adding on the kitchen space and the guest rooms, it had an area of at least 400 square feet.

Yet at this moment, right here, Ji Nuan felt the room was suddenly too empty and silent.

At this time, Auntie Chen, who was usually very warm, actually did not come out to greet her? Where were the helpers who moved about on the first floor?

Perhaps using the word empty was not too suitable.

But it was unusually silent.

Ji Nuan raised her eyes to scan the large living room in front of her. She felt that things were amiss.

Earlier on, when she entered through the door, she had already felt that something was strange.

When she was driving back, she saw, not far away from the Yu Garden’s gate, what seemed to be a black jeep parked there. That model of car had never appeared around this area before. The car plate number was also unfamiliar to her. However, she did not take that into much consideration.

Recalling it now, she abruptly raised her eyes to look at her surroundings. She took a step back instinctually, and the moment she felt danger approaching, she bent to pick up the bag on the ground and ran out without changing her shoes.

Yet, at that instant, two unfamiliar men hiding in the corner suddenly rushed out. It was as though they were hunters waiting to ambush their prey; the instant the moment was right, they revealed their teeth. Just as Ji Nuan had quickly opened the door and was about to scream for help, they dragged her back.

“You… what are you doing! Uu…”
