Chapter 7: Ending the Cooperation

The two little guys pouted. Such an expression was really rare on Xie Chenchen’s face.

Xie Nian was in a good mood. She had promised that they could get whatever they wanted from all the toys in the mall.

The family of three headed straight to the toy area of the mall in light steps, completely ignoring how Xie Zhizhi looked after she was surrounded by everyone.

“Psst, although it feels good, if anything happens to the second daughter of the Xie family in the mall, it will be the mall’s responsibility.”

Chen Hao’s smile froze on his face as he watched the show. He quickly contacted the people in the guardhouse, and took a long time before he was able to calm the crowd down. At this moment, the power in the mall was also turned back on.

Xie Zhizhi sat in the middle of the stage trembling. She didn’t have the demeanor of the daughter of a rich family at all. She looked even worse than the beggar on the street.

“Second Ms. Xie, are you alright?”

Chen Hao asked nervously. The people from the Xie family had always been very difficult to deal with. He really hoped he wouldn’t get involved, or it would be difficult to explain things to his president.

“How could there be nothing wrong? This is your mall’s negligence. I’ll talk to my parents about this matter. Your mall has to bear the main responsibility.”

“Main responsibility? The contract terms are clearly stated and not a single one of them says that the mall is to be held responsible for the other party bringing about its own deaths. However, on the account of you being so pitiful, we will compensate you accordingly.”

These words were scolding at Xie Zhizhi indirectly. Even the final compensation was a humiliation.

Xie Zhizhi looked at the person who came with a sinister expression. When she noticed who it was, her attitude immediately changed drastically.

“President Ruan, I’m Xie Zhizhi from the Xie family. My father often mentions you—”

Ruan Mu didn’t look at Xie Zhizhi. He glanced at Chen Hao coldly and said in a low voice, “Investigate this matter and see who dares to cause trouble here in Turquoise.”

“Yes, President.”

When he saw it just now, he felt that something was wrong. No matter what, the people at the scene would not react so excessively. They had no reason to offend Turquoise for a stranger, unless they were instigated by someone.

Looking at the surrounding crowd, it seemed that there were fewer people than before. Also, the sudden blackout just now was probably planned from the start.

“Lock down the mall. Report to me as soon as you find anyone suspicious, especially a woman in an orange dress.”

There were very few people who dared to cause trouble under his watch, especially a woman. This was the first time Ruan Mu was interested in this woman.

“Chief Ruan, you have to punish this person properly. Don’t let—”

Ruan Mu looked at Xie Zhizhi with disgust. He was especially disgusted when the woman who was in ragged clothes with messy hair and footprints all over her hands was tugging on his shirt. The disgust in his eyes deepened.

Holding back the urge to vomit, Ruan Mu took off his suit and threw it on the ground. His entire body was covered in cold air. Didn’t she know that what he hated the most was getting dirt onto him?

“Chen Hao, deal with it as soon as possible.”

Chen Hao shot a glance at Xie Zhizhi. What a foolish woman. Couldn’t she tell that the president detests her so much?

Xie Zhizhi was feeling happy that Ruan Mu had thrown his clothes to her. Could it be that Ruan Mu was indirectly asking her to cover herself because he saw that the clothes on her were damaged?

With this in mind, Xie Zhizhi looked at Ruan Mu with even more enthusiasm. President Ruan must like her.

Chen Hao shook off the goosebumps on his body violently. This woman should stop being stupid. He had to quickly call for an ambulance. If the daughter of the Xie family were to get into trouble here, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Xie Nian felt a surge of warmth in her heart when she saw the two children picking out presents from the toy area. The softness that belonged to a mother was ruthlessly hit. It had been a long time since she had seen such a scene.

When she first came to the country, although she had Zhou Zheng’s help, it was very difficult for Xie Nian to progress forward most of the time. For example, when the two little babies came suddenly, Xie Nian hid it from them to avoid their worries.

It was also at this moment that Xie Nian bumped into Derson and the others. Although they looked fierce, they were very good to her and her two little babies.

As for Yu Chu, he was usually very out of tune, but he did things without any hesitation. At the same time, he was also Chen Bao’s master.

“Qiao Qiao, I remember that you’re the one in charge of the cooperation with the Nian Cheng Corporation, right?”

“Yes, Sister Nian, I’m pushing the progress.”

“Terminate it for the time being. We’ll continue when the Nian Cheng Corporation comes up with a suitable design plan. Otherwise, we will choose the next partner. I remember that the Ruan Corporation is quite good and they are a new and emerging talent. Thus, they are even more in line with our founding purpose.”

“Noted, Sister Nian..”
