Chapter 288 My Face Hurts So Much

"Chairman, please rest assured, I've sent people to keep an eye on her. However, Miss seems to be investigating as well. She appears to have connections with the intelligence bureau. Furthermore, I've found out that Miss has been a very famous bounty hunter in recent years. She's also taken on many jobs to support a family of four."

"Oh!" Jiang Beichen said, very happy and also heartbroken, "Nuannuan inherited my genes. She's very capable."

"But it's very dangerous. She's not allowed to do such dangerous things anymore."

Jiang Wei nodded slightly and said, "Chairman, although you say that, the children have grown up and don't listen to us anymore."

Jiang Beichen understood the meaning of these words and nodded, "That's right, you're absolutely right. Everyone has different ideas."

"Jiang Wei, let's have some tea. We can think about those things after tea." Jiang Beichen looked at the blooming garden, in a very good mood.

Jiang Wei also smiled. This old man was genuinely fond of tea.

At Mu Jiuchen's home, Sheng Huan entered with documents and saw Li Qing Shuo reading on the first floor. The man was wearing light gray homewear, his hair casually falling on his forehead. He looked like a university student who had just graduated, full of vigor.

Sheng Huan walked over with a happy heart and looked at Li Qing Shuo, "President, Miss Y.X., a jewelry designer returning from abroad, sent an email saying she's feeling unwell. The company has allowed her to sketch at home."

"Her works are very popular abroad. After returning to China, she was prioritized for recruitment by our company. She is already preparing the designs for the autumn and winter collections this year."

"Miss Y.X. said she can submit the drafts next week."

Li Qing Shuo nodded and said, "Alright. Coordinate with her properly. If there are any issues, please consult at any time. The design drafts must be strictly reviewed."

"President, I've already communicated with Miss Y.X. She seems like a very easy-to-talk-to person. As long as we have needs, she will cooperate immediately."

"Mm! Put the documents down. You can leave work for today." Li Qing Shuo's tone was indifferent, and he didn't look at Sheng Huan.

Sheng Huan felt a little sad. He never gave her more than a glance.

If he lived alone, she might have had the chance to stay and take care of him. But living in Jiuye's house, she didn't have that opportunity.

After putting down the documents, she poured Li Qing Shuo another cup of tea before leaving.

Li Qing Shuo looked at the pile of documents, not in a good mood.

He really wanted to see Yun Xia. This thought had been lingering.

He glanced at the time. It was already this late. Why hadn't Mu Jiuchen returned yet?

He instructed the servants to prepare dinner for him. His body couldn't be left hungry now.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Jiang Nuan had also finished her dinner. Rong Yin had barely eaten, mostly watching Jiang Nuan eat.

He discovered that Jiang Nuan looked beautiful even while eating.

"Nuannuan, heaven is simply too biased, gathering all the good things onto you."

"Nuannuan, look at your face. You could clearly rely on your looks, but you insist on relying on talent! You truly surprise me."

Jiang Nuan elegantly wiped the corner of her mouth. Looking at Rong Yin, who was showering her with compliments, her voice was calm and unhurried, "Alright, you've been flattering me all evening, you must be tired too. Bring out the contract. Once the contract is signed, you can do whatever you want when you go home. You can grin from ear to ear, and no one will say anything about you."

Rong Yin was indeed very happy, but being called out by Jiang Nuan like that, he smiled awkwardly.

"Nuannuan, I heard you like money very much. In the near future, you'll have a lot of money. Aren't you happy?"

Jiang Nuan: "..." Damn! Which eye of yours saw that I like money?!

She did like money, but it was a secret preference that she never spoke of or revealed in public.

Rong Yin smiled and brought out the contract he had prepared in advance.

His peach blossom eyes flicked up, and he said excitedly with a smile, "Nuannuan, all the terms are written in the contract. They are all the best for you. You must read it carefully."

Jiang Nuan glanced at him and said, "As long as the words 'fifty-fifty split' are clearly written, that's enough. Then you'll act according to the contract, and I'll give you the formula according to the contract."

"Yes, yes, yes. Everything according to the contract." Rong Yin still looked at her with a smile.

Jiang Nuan lowered her head and carefully read the contents of the contract. She couldn't be careless. Rong Yin was a formidable person. Although he smiled, and appeared like a demon in front of others, his ruthlessness behind the scenes was not something ordinary people could compare to.

After reading carefully for 20 minutes, Rong Yin's interest waned. But seeing Jiang Nuan read the contract three times so diligently, he was a little surprised.

Was this still the genius Jiang Nuan he knew?

Reading a contract three times.

And it took 20 minutes!

Aren't geniuses supposed to read at a glance?

Look at her imposing aura of two meters eighty. She's truly impressive!

Jiang Nuan looked at Rong Yin, who looked sleepy and uncomfortable, and said, "A total of 6,800 characters, and there are three incorrect characters. Rong Yin, you're too unprofessional."

Rong Yin: "..." Damn, what kind of existence is this?

They say wise women are gold, elegant women are diamonds, smart women are treasures, and lovely women are famous paintings. According to his research, Jiang Nuan possessed all these qualities.

"Where... where is it wrong?" he asked guiltily.

Jiang Nuan: "Look here, the 'xiào' in 'yàoxiào' (medicine effect) has become the 'xiào' in 'xuéxiào' (school). And look here, the 'fāng' in 'yàofāng' (prescription) has become 'Fāng' from 'Xiǎo Fāng'."

"And look here, this contract, even the page numbers are wrong. This page 3 has two page 3s?" Jiang Nuan pointed out the errors one by one.

Rong Yin's expression was very ugly at this moment. Like this, he was destined to not sign the contract tonight.

"And here."

Rong Yin looked at Jiang Nuan nervously again. Still more?

Jiang Nuan said, "The most important thing, the fifty-fifty split, you wrote it as a seventy-five split. Therefore, I don't mind if I get seven and you get five. The contract is in triplicate. Two copies are correct, and only this one is problematic. And it happens to be the one you want me to sign."

Rong Yin, who had just doubted Jiang Nuan's intelligence: "..." Oh my god, my face really hurts!

"Nuannuan, wait for me here for a moment, please don't leave. I promise to bring a complete copy back within 10 minutes." Rong Yin picked up the other two correct contracts and ran out the door.

Jiang Nuan shook her head slightly. Fortunately, she was careful.

She looked at the menu on the table, ordered several nutritious dishes, and then handed them to the waiter to have them delivered as takeout to Meng Yuan and Jiang Xingyu.

She confirmed the taste. It was really, really good!

Seven minutes later, Rong Yin returned like a gust of wind. Looking at Jiang Nuan, he said apologetically, "Nuannuan, this time I promise, even the punctuation marks are correct."

Jiang Nuan nodded, took it, and carefully read it again. It was indeed correct.

She took out a pen and carefully signed her name, Jiang Nuan.

Rong Yin looked at those delicate handwriting characters, and finally, a proud smile appeared on his face.

"Nuannuan, let's take a photo together to commemorate this signing." Rong Yin walked to Jiang Nuan's side, and they took a few photos together.
