Mu Jiu Chen glanced at him indifferently and said casually, "I don't have time to be as idle as you?"
Rong Yin found it amusing. Thinking back to last night, Mu Jiu Chen had done it on purpose. "I was very humiliated last night."
Mu Jiu Chen smirked, "It wasn't me who was humiliated anyway."
He adopted an attitude of detached indifference.
Rong Yin: "..."
Jiang Nuan, seeing the tense atmosphere between them, did not intend to get involved in their dispute. She stood up and said, "You two talk. I need to go to a meeting."
She figured these two pampered young masters would likely not have the patience to wait.
Rong Yin looked at her as she was about to leave. He said reluctantly, "Nuan Nuan, how about we sign the contract tomorrow?"
Jiang Nuan: "Okay."
"Hehe..." Rong Yin grinned, his peach blossom eyes full of smiles. "I'll get to see Nuan Nuan again tomorrow."
Mu Jiu Chen's sharp gaze, filled with a mixture of protectiveness, possessiveness, and a desire to contend, flickered.
Rong Yin looked at his changing handsome face and realized he had let something slip. He chuckled and dragged Li Yan Heng away.
Li Yan Heng turned back and instructed his elder brother, "Big Brother, see you tonight."
Mu Jiu Chen watched their retreating figures thoughtfully. These two were indeed inseparable.
After leaving, Jiang Nuan surprisingly saw Jin Mu Ya at the company.
Jin Mu Ya, who had followed Rong Yin here, was also surprised to see Jiang Nuan.
However, Jiang Nuan did not speak. Jin Mu Ya was seeing Shen Shuo, and did not recognize her in her current appearance.
Jin Mu Ya had seen Jiang Nuan in the news and knew she was her aunt's biological daughter who had been found. She was much prettier in person than in photos.
"Jiang Nuan, why are you here?" Jin Mu Ya's tone was haughty and also curious. Dressed in an all-white suit, she perfectly embodied the demeanor of a female CEO.
Jiang Nuan asked coldly, "Who are you?"
"Oh!" Jin Mu Ya introduced herself, "My name is Jin Mu Ya. I am Aunt Jin Yan's niece, and also your cousin. Do you know who I am now? Grandmother said a few days ago she wanted to meet you, but you had an accident, so it was put on hold."
Jiang Nuan replied indifferently, "Mm! Thank you for her concern." From her mother's words, she knew this family was not easy to deal with.
Jin Mu Ya looked at Jiang Nuan's indifferent attitude, a little surprised. The Jin family was a true wealthy family; anyone who knew them was greeted with smiles, yet Jiang Nuan was so aloof.
"Jiang Nuan, you are Aunt's biological daughter who was switched at birth. You really look like Aunt when she was young." She really resembled Aunt when she was young, beautiful enough to make people jealous.
Her mother had said that Aunt married poorly and would live a life of hardship, and Grandmother would not help her. But within a few years, her uncle became increasingly successful, and Aunt was doted on like a princess. She was still very happy.
Everyone might look down on the Lu family, the foremost aristocratic family, but they all envied Aunt's happiness!
Unlike the Jin family, where Grandmother always held the reins of power, their lives were filled with trivialities.
Jiang Nuan observed the change in her expression and asked blandly, "Miss Jin, is there something you need here?"
"Oh! I'm here for something. Are you working here?" Jin Mu Ya looked at the documents in her hand, assuming she worked there.
Jiang Nuan nodded slightly, "Yes!"
Jin Mu Ya frowned slightly. She wasn't working at her own family's company?
Why was she working somewhere else?
Was she not favored after being found?
Jin Mu Ya's mind raced with all sorts of speculations.
"Have you seen the third young master of the Rong family? I'm here to see him."
As soon as Jin Mu Ya finished speaking, she saw Rong Yin and Li Yan Heng running out.
Jiang Nuan asked them confusedly, "Why are you two running?"
Rong Yin looked at the beautiful and spirited Jiang Nuan with complex eyes, a thousand words stuck in his throat. "Nuan Nuan, Mu Jiu Chen is going to hit me."
Jiang Nuan: "???"
"Sister-in-law, we're leaving. See you tonight." Li Yan Heng and Rong Yin didn't see Jin Mu Ya and quickly departed.
Jiang Nuan shook her head slightly. These two were definitely up to something; they were practically like one person.
Jiang Nuan looked at Jin Mu Ya, who was still standing there, her expressionless face betraying no emotion. "Miss Jin, I have something to attend to. I apologize."
Jin Mu Ya was again surprised by Jiang Nuan's coldness. "Um, Nuan Nuan, I am your cousin after all. Why are you so distant with me?"
People raised in the market simply don't know the rules.
Jiang Nuan stated truthfully, "We weren't close to begin with."
Jin Mu Ya's face paled for a moment, replaced by endless awkwardness. "Jiang Nuan, with your cold personality, Grandmother won't like you. Grandmother likes people who can please her."
Jiang Nuan was unconcerned. "I am not living my life to please her."
After speaking, Jiang Nuan turned and walked towards the conference room.
Jin Mu Ya: "..."
She lived so carefreely.
She remembered Rong Yin didn't even look at her when he left, which made her quite upset. All the daughters of the Jin family were beautiful as flowers, yet Rong Yin hadn't noticed her. She was extremely angry. Jiang Nuan's words were also unpleasant, making her mood even worse. She left the company indignantly.
...
After a two-hour meeting, Jiang Nuan and Mu Jiu Chen left the company together.
In the car, Jiang Nuan received a message from Madam Jiang. It was Saturday, and she was asked to go teach her daughter to play the piano.
She also sent Jiang Nuan an address.
Upon seeing the message, Jiang Nuan told Mu Jiu Chen, "Husband, I'll be at the Jiang residence for two hours. You can take care of your own matters during this time. I'll call you later."
Mu Jiu Chen looked at her deeply. She always handled things with such composure. "Be careful. I've arranged for bodyguards nearby. If anything happens to you, they will help you immediately."
Jiang Nuan's eyes reflected his handsome face, and she smiled, "With your thoughtful arrangements, I'll be fine."
"I'll take you to get ready," Mu Jiu Chen said, taking Jiang Nuan to the underground parking lot. Jiang Nuan's clothes and makeup box for the lesson were all in the car.
...
Half an hour later, Jiang Nuan appeared outside a luxurious detached villa.
She rang the doorbell, and a middle-aged male butler came out. He politely asked Jiang Nuan, "Are you Teacher Shen?"
Jiang Nuan smiled and nodded, "Yes, thank you."
"Teacher Shen, you're too kind. Please follow me."
Jiang Nuan followed him inside. A maid led her to a room on the second floor. Upon entering, she was surprised to see He Cheng Yi there as well.
"Hello, Teacher Shen!" Jiang Le Tian looked at Jiang Nuan with a smile.
"Hello, Miss Shen!" As she walked in, she smelled a hint of intimacy.
"Miss Shen, this is my boyfriend," Jiang Le Tian introduced with a smile.
Jiang Nuan: "..." Madam Jiang actually agreed to them being together.
Number One had told her that He Cheng Yi had not succeeded last night.
What was Madam Jiang trying to do?
"Miss Jiang, let's start the lesson," Jiang Nuan did not want to waste time.
"Okay, let's go to the piano room next door." Jiang Le Tian kissed He Cheng Yi's cheek and said softly, "Cheng Yi, wait for me here."
"Okay!" He Cheng Yi glanced at Jiang Nuan with a smile.
Jiang Nuan nodded slightly and followed Jiang Le Tian to the adjacent room.
As she went into the adjacent room and turned to close the door, she suddenly saw a familiar figure enter the room opposite the piano room.
