Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Xie Nian thought of her mother’s appearance in her dream and a lump came into her throat. At that time, she was seven, and was still the beloved eldest daughter of the Xie family in Jiang Capital. Although they seldom saw Xie Zhanan during that period, it was as if that person had never existed.

Why did her mother say that Xie Nian and Xie Cheng were nicknames? Were they not called this way from the start?

Was there something she had forgotten?

“Sister Nian, the people from Nian Cheng Corporation hope that we can sit down and have a good talk.”

“Yes.”

The corners of Xie Nian’s eyes were red as she replied softly. It seemed like someone had taken action.

“They’ve set the time to be at three in the afternoon. It’s two o’clock now. We—”

“Then let’s go. It won’t be good if people see that we don’t respect our partners.”

Xie Nian tidied her clothes. She exuded an imposing aura. In her daze, Qiao Qiao thought that she had seen the former Madam Jiang.

“Eldest Ms. Xie, this is not a place where you should come.”

Xie Nian looked at the person who spoke. It was her mother’s most trusted subordinate, Zeng Tianrui. However, this person was the most ruthless after her mother passed away.

“Uncle Zeng, aren’t you people from Nian Cheng Corporation the ones waiting for us to come?” Xie Nian sat down in a seat as she pleased and tidied up her clothes. She said unhurriedly, “Aren’t I here now?”

“You’re Qing Yu’s—”

Qiao Qiao made the introduction at the perfect time. “This is our vice-president, Xie Nian.

You’re actually Qing Yu’s vice-president? Is this all your doing?”

An old man with white hair stood up shakily. Someone immediately went up to support him.

“Hey, Uncle Yuan, you made it sound like I’m in the wrong. I just wanted to take back all of my mother’s drafts. Is that wrong of me? I uploaded them happily after getting them back. Is that wrong of me?”

“This, this, this, there’s nothing wrong with it. But what do you mean by returning Nian Cheng Corporation’s design blueprint over and over again? Aren’t you just trying to embarrass us?”

Xie Nian sneered in her heart. They had really thought too highly of themselves. Why would she have to make a move against them? Even without her, the corporation’s situation would make them suffer. Wouldn’t it be better to let them see the company that they had protected with all their hearts collapse?

“Uncle Yuan, why would you say that? From the moment I accepted the project on Qing Yu’s end, it has always been my subordinates making the decisions. All I saw was the final result.

I thought that since this was a place that I used to have feelings for, I asked them to be more flexible. Who knew that this was actually the President’s decision? We are all just employees. We don’t have that much authority. “

There was a mix of truth and falsehood in Xie Nian’s words, but who would care?

“Then this is how you treat your mother’s blood, sweat and tears? Aren’t you afraid that your mother will come into your dreams to curse you when you’re sleeping in the middle of the night?”

Xie Nian’s smile did not reach her eyes. If one looked closely, they would discover that her eyes were already filled with coldness.

“If all of you don’t care, why should I? As the saying goes, if you don’t do anything wrong, you’re not afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. I, Xie Nian, did not do anything that goes against my conscience. What’s there to be afraid of?”

Xie Nian’s words were a slap in the face. Which of the people sitting here had a clear conscience? Just based on Jiang Wanning’s matter, everyone present here was probably more ruthless than one another.

“Haha, Niannian, I didn’t expect that the young lady from back then had grown into a big lady now. Your Brother Gu Pan has been missing you for a long time. When are you going to meet your Brother Gu Pan?”

“Uncle Gu, didn’t Brother Gu Pan get addicted to that thing? Is it easy to treat? I know a few good doctors who are all experts. Look…”

The man slammed his hand on the table loudly and looked at Xie Nian with anger in his eyes.

“Who do you think you are? You are too dirty to be with Gu Pan, yet you still dare to say such things. You only have parents to give birth to you, but no parents to raise you. You must have a death wish.”

Xie Nian seemed like she hadn’t heard him. She looked at her fingers and a ring on her finger made a silver glow.

“Why? I’m right, aren’t I? That mother of yours is also cheap. I should have—”

Before the man could finish, he fell to the ground with a thud. There was faint blood flowing from his head. Everyone was shocked. They looked at Xie Nian’s slightly raised hand and they all slumped back down onto their seats..
