Jiang Nuan was discharged from the hospital after three days and returned home to recuperate.
Jin Yan did not want her to return to Mu Jiuchen’s place. His home had no servants, so she brought her daughter back to care for her herself.
Since her return, Jiang Nuan had been strictly managed by her mother. For these past few days, she had been lying in bed sleeping.
When she occasionally got up to walk around, she would be met with her mother's displeased glances.
Jiang Nuan could only obediently go back to bed.
Jin Yan came in with a glass of water.
Jiang Nuan quickly sat up, "Mom, there's water in the room. I can drink it myself. You don't need to bring it to me."
"Sigh! I feel uneasy if I don't see you. I'm just using the excuse of bringing you water to see what you're doing. I'm afraid you'll get up and work."
Jiang Nuan smiled and said, "Mom, my wound is almost healed."
"Even if it's almost healed, you still need to rest. That gunshot almost took your life," Jin Yan said, still recalling the incident with lingering fear.
"Mom, I just heard someone arrive downstairs. Who is it?" She thought she heard someone coming to seek medical treatment.
Jin Yan handed her the water, "Sigh! Ever since your identity as Vicky was exposed, people coming to seek medical treatment have been flocking to our doorstep. But your health is the most important. I am just a mother, I can only manage my own daughter; I can't manage others. I refused them and sent them away."
Jiang Nuan didn't say anything more. This time, she had truly frightened her mother.
Let alone her mother, even she herself was scared. She thought she wouldn't survive, but at the last moment of her life, a turning point appeared.
Jiang Nuan drank the water and handed the cup back, "Where is Mu Jiuchen?"
Jin Yan shook her head, "I don't know where he went."
Jiang Nuan frowned. He had left in the morning, why hadn't he returned yet?
The Jin Family!
Mu Jiuchen entered with a group of bodyguards, his presence imposing.
Jin Tong and Song Yanqing were both present.
Song Yanqing was also surprised to see Mu Jiuchen personally arrive.
He was still dressed in a black suit, which made his posture appear tall and straight. His hair had grown considerably longer, and the dark ink-black hair made his features even sharper and more profound, exuding greater charm.
"Ninth Master, are you here for me?" Song Yanqing walked over with a smile. In just a few days, the Jin family was thriving.
He had seen how well the Jin family was doing, hadn't he?
Xiao Fan stepped forward, blocking Song Yanqing, and said in a deep voice, "Miss Song, please stay three meters away from our master. Otherwise, do not blame us for being impolite. Our master says you reek, and he fears being offended by the smell."
Song Yanqing looked at Mu Jiuchen indignantly, "You..."
Mu Jiuchen, however, looked at Jin Tong, took the documents from a bodyguard, and threw them beside Jin Tong, "Are you going to declare bankruptcy yourself, or shall I declare it for you?"
Jin Tong's eyes widened as she looked at him, "Mu Jiuchen, what are you doing?"
Mu Jiuchen's icy gaze was filled with immense rage, "You bribed Chairman Zhang of Jianda Group to tamper with Nuan Nuan's shares. Did you think that because Nuan Nuan is not managing the company, you could do as you pleased?"
"Ah..." Jin Tong was startled. How did Mu Jiuchen know?
After learning that Jianda Group was managed by Jiang Nuan, she felt intensely jealous. Coincidentally, she knew Chairman Zhang, and their ideas clicked. Taking advantage of her illness, they aimed for her life.
She intended to remove Jiang Nuan as CEO, and together with Chairman Zhang, they would swallow Jianda Group.
This matter had only been finalized that morning. She hadn't even had an hour to celebrate before Mu Jiuchen arrived at her doorstep.
It was truly unexpected.
Mu Jiuchen continued, "Nuan Nuan had already discovered that Chairman Zhang had problems and was waiting for him to fall into the trap. However, your appearance gave him an opportunity, and he truly fell into the trap. Chairman Zhang has already been arrested, and you are next."
Jin Tong was utterly shocked.
"You're saying this was a trap?" How could Jiang Nuan have such schemes?
Mu Jiuchen's eyes showed an increasing murderous intent. The cold aura emanating from his body made Jin Tong and Song Yanqing feel terrified.
He did not deliberately conceal the arrogance and nobility in his eyes, preventing Jin Tong from meeting his ink-black gaze.
"That's right. All of this was meticulously planned by Nuan Nuan beforehand. Chairman Zhang saw that the chairman of Jianda Group had no close family.
But he didn't expect a granddaughter to suddenly appear. This granddaughter was Nuan Nuan. As soon as she took over, she stabilized the company's performance, causing his plan to be delayed."
"Even after you and your mother did those despicable and shameless things at the banquet, we did not hold grudges and allowed you to act recklessly."
"If you are not grateful, you still resort to these dirty tactics behind our backs to seize Nuan Nuan's company. Are you too confident, or are you dreaming?"
"Ah... I didn't. I was just tempted by Chairman Zhang's offer. You know my current situation; if I don't cooperate, my company won't be able to survive. Since you turned a blind eye last time, why not turn a blind eye this time as well? We are family, after all."
Jin Tong became increasingly presumptuous.
Mu Jiuchen let out a cold smile, "I have never seen such despicable and shameless people like you."
Mu Jiuchen looked at Xiao Fan, "Let the police in and take them away. As for their family's loans, let the court decide."
For people like them, the most painful thing was to lose everything they owned.
"Ah..." Jin Tong was in a panic. This moment had arrived without any warning.
Song Yanqing faltered for a moment, then also realized what was happening.
She looked at Mu Jiuchen with fervent pleading, "Ninth Master, it's all our fault. Please be merciful. Nuan Nuan and I are cousins!"
The Jin family was finished. She would never be able to live such a comfortable life again.
She did not want to be reduced to a beggar.
Everything was developing according to their expectations, so how could something like this happen?
Anger flickered across Mu Jiuchen's handsome face, "If Nuan Nuan knew about your dirty thoughts, do you think I would let you off? In Modu, there will no longer be a place for you to stay."
Song Yanqing stared disbelievingly at his captivating handsome face. He intended to utterly destroy her.
Between men and women, these were normal occurrences.
Why did it become so serious with Mu Jiuchen?
Song Yanqing knew the reason but dared not admit it in her heart.
After the law enforcement officers entered, they took away Jin Tong and her daughter for investigation.
As Jin Tong was being escorted into the enforcement vehicle, she looked at Mu Jiuchen standing ramrod straight by the roadside and finally regretted all her actions.
However, it was too late!
The Jin family's end had come at her hands.
News of the Jin family's bankruptcy and the freezing of their assets quickly spread online.
Lu Family, first floor!
The old madam was watching the news. Jiang Nuan and Jin Yan were both present.
Suddenly seeing the news about the Jin family, everyone was surprised.
The atmosphere in the hall was eerily quiet.
Jiang Nuan looked at the stunned old madam, the shock on her face gradually cracking.
She also hadn't expected Jin Tong to do such a thing. Recently, her company matters had been handled by Mu Jiuchen.
It seemed Mu Jiuchen had gone out today to deal with this matter.
Jin Yan suddenly shouted angrily, "If you can't manage them, just stay here and enjoy your retirement."
The old madam, startled by her shout, felt a surge of breathlessness, "You just stood by and watched..."
"Stood by and watched her go to jail, what of it? She stole my daughter's company, and you expect me to tolerate her? She's not even human, old madam, do you think she's human?" Jin Yan asked, glancing at her sideways.
