Chapter 24 Bullying, Is It

Jiang Nuan and Meng Yuan exchanged glances: "..."

What did they just hear?

Lin Su, with a cheerful smile and a voice as gentle as flowing water, said: "Miss Jiang is very beautiful, and her work should also be outstanding, right?" Each word softly tugged at the hearts of the men around them.

However, in her heart, she thought differently. With this face, entering the entertainment industry would mean reaching the pinnacle of success from the very beginning. Why would Old Fox Jiang Shuo send her to her side?

Jiang Nuan: "..." Outstanding, my ass. She's clearly a little white lotus looking for trouble.

No, she just came for dinner, how did she end up also getting a job?

Or rather, does she look easy to talk to?

No, I have my pride.

"Nuan Nuan, you only graduated from high school. Being Lin Teacher's assistant is already very fortunate. What are you still hesitating for? Hurry up and thank Teacher Lin." Jiang Qing put on a show of concern for Jiang Nuan.

In reality, she was telling everyone that Jiang Nuan hadn't even attended university.

Jiang Nuan looked at her with amusement: "If you like it so much, why don't you go?"

Jiang Qing smiled: "Aren't I supposed to help Dad manage the company?"

"So, is Dad biased? Letting my sister manage the company, and sending me to be someone else's assistant?" Jiang Nuan had a temper from birth. It was only because she didn't want to upset Grandma that she endured it before.

Jiang Shuo and Jiang Qing's faces turned pale.

A faint cold glint flickered in Jiang Shuo's eyes. Why wasn't this brat as obedient as she was when she was little?

Lin Su's expression also turned unpleasant. She had already agreed, and this woman was still so ungrateful.

"Wait." Meng Yuan couldn't stand it any longer.

"Chairman Jiang, aren't you bullying someone?"

Meng Yuan slammed her wine glass onto the table, her words sharp and stern, "Everyone in Jinshi knows what Jiang Qing, your wife, and Shen Yao did to Nuan Nuan six years ago. Are you selling Nuan Nuan off?"

Meng Yuan had a sharp tongue and spoke directly, saying what was on her mind.

Facing someone like Jiang Shuo, she wouldn't hold back.

Jiang Qing's face was ugly. It had been over a month since that incident. Shen Yao had been sentenced because of Grandma's affairs, and her own troubles were almost forgotten. How dare this woman bring it up in front of so many people.

"Our family matters are none of your business as an outsider." Jiang Qing warned Meng Yuan with her eyes.

Was Meng Yuan the type to be threatened by a warning glance?

"Miss Jiang, allow me to remind you, Jiang Nuan's name doesn't seem to be on your family's household registration. The year after Jiang Nuan left, your family removed her from the household registry. It took her all her might to get her own household registration."

Jiang Shuo and Jiang Qing's expressions turned even uglier.

Jiang Nuan looked at their pale faces, her striking peach blossom eyes held a casual, alluring, and somewhat cynical playfulness.

A faint smile on her face made her look even more harmless.

The atmosphere instantly turned bizarre. Everyone looked at the displeased expressions on Jiang Shuo and Jiang Qing's faces and whispered amongst themselves.

"What's wrong, everyone?" The voice, at first glance, was pleasant but carried a chill.

He Mingrun stood under a crystal chandelier not far away. On his handsome face, his expression was fleeting, but his clear, deep eyes and the nobility emanating from his bones made him seem completely unapproachable.

"Hello, Mr. He!"

Everyone greeted him respectfully.

He Mingrun looked at everyone apologetically, "Everyone, I apologize. I had something to attend to just now and arrived late."

He had already found Vicky, and this banquet held little significance for him. However, since everyone was here, he would ensure a pleasant gathering.

"Brother Mingrun, Chairman Jiang was introducing an assistant to me. You know, my previous assistant resigned." Lin Su said to He Mingrun with a smile.

"What? Is someone daring to snatch an assistant from me, Mu Jiuchen?" A deep, pleasant voice came from behind the crowd.
