Faintly, Xie Nian was actually a little curious what kind of person her children’s father was.

At that time, because Xie Zhizhi had drugged her, she was so focused on resolving her needs that she completely didn’t see how the person looked. She only knew that the muscles on his body felt quite solid.

“Mommy, are we going to buy something to bring over for Granny Zhou? Uncle Derson said that no one would visit their elders empty-handed.”

Xie Jiaojiao looked at Xie Nian, whose eyes were unfocused, and frowned slightly. Her mother was always like this. She liked to drift into a daze on her own, so Uncle Derson was worried about them returning to the country now.

Hearing Xie Jiaojiao’s words, Xie Nian slowly came back to her senses. She gently pinched Xie Jiaojiao’s nose and said, “You little imp, don’t you just want to go to the mall to buy things? Why are you speaking so pompously?”

“Mom, I’m giving you face by giving you a chance to please me. This way, I will be obedient in front of Granny Zhou and Uncle later. Am I right?”

Xie Chenchen stared at the tablet in front of him. Uncle Derson had mentioned that his mother had the habit of staring blankly because she had something hidden in her heart.

Under their strong requests, Xie Nian had told them the truth, and now they had to help Xie Nian seek justice.

“Chenchen, you can also buy a toy later.”

“Thank you, Mommy.”

Xie Nian had always been indulgent towards the two children. As long as it was within reason, she would agree to whatever they liked.

“The biggest shopping mall in Jiangdu is called Turquoise. You guys will get to experience it later.”

The driver took a glance at the rear view mirror and smiled gently. “This Turquoise Mall has been popular for the past few years. Her success will probably go downhill after some time.”

Xie Nian’s interest was piqued. “Uncle, you know so much about this.”

“Isn’t that so? This young master of the Ruan family who appeared out of nowhere had built Turquoise single handedly. He’s swift and decisive in his work and doesn’t get close to women. However, listen to my advice. Don’t provoke this person. I heard that he is extremely ruthless.”

“Is that so? I didn’t expect such a big figure to appear in Jiang Capital suddenly.”

“Exactly. The appearance of this person caught the upper class society of Jiang Capital by surprise. However, no one dared to say no to him. They would shoot at you anytime.”

The corners of Xie Nian’s mouth twitched. This person was really powerful. She wouldn’t dare to provoke someone who carried a machine gun.

Turquoise looked the same as its name. It was a turquoise colored building. When Xie Nian attended classes overseas, this building was praised by the teacher.

“There seems to be a lot of people today.”

Xie Nian looked at the crowd entering and exiting the building. She looked at the two kiddos next to her and reminded them, “The two of you are not to go anywhere alone later. You must stay close to me, do you understand?”

Seeing the two kiddos nod their heads, Xie Nian was a lot more relieved.

Xie Chenchen and Xie Jiaojiao exchanged glances in mid-air. This was a secret that belonged to the two of them. No one else knew about it except them.

As soon as they entered, Xie Nian saw the two huge words “Nian Cheng”. She looked at the two kiddos helplessly. “I was wondering why both of you insisted on buying things. Are you setting a trap for your mother?”

“Of course not, Mommy. It was just a passing thought. Brother had already registered for you online. You must work hard Mommy. Don’t forget we still have to go to Grandma Zhou’s house later.”

Xie Nian sighed helplessly. It was obvious that these two kiddos had planned it beforehand. Now that she thought about it, it was likely that Derson was involved as well. He was indeed someone who held a scalpel, his actions were so precise and straight to the cut.

“Alright, wait for me below the stage obediently. After I’m done, we’ll go to the toy shop.”

“Okay, Mommy. Don’t worry. Brother and I will take good care of ourselves.”

Xie Nian looked at the two of them and put on the mask that Xie Chenchen handed over. They had prepared so well. It seemed like they were sure that she would participate.

She gently rubbed the hair of her two babies before walking up the stage.

“Welcome everyone to the venue of the annual design competition of the Nian Cheng Corporation. After rounds of selection online, we have selected five final designers. The champion of this competition will be appointed the position of the Nian Cheng Corporation’s design director and enjoy all the benefits the company provides.

Xie Nian was the last to go on stage. With her mask on, she looked especially mysterious and she attracted everyone’s attention the moment she went on stage..
