Chapter Twenty-Three: The Trouble of Ignorance

"I just want you to understand how unwilling I lived in my last life, and I didn't even have time to confess, so I lost the opportunity to be with the person I liked."

"This time as a freshman, I originally thought that God had mercy on me, but I didn't want it to just want me to recognize the thing of 'fate'."

Nuan Nuan was lying on the bed, and before going to bed, she couldn't help but think of what Jiang Mulan said when she sent her downstairs. She got up, walked to the living room and picked up the folder that Jiang Mulan handed her, and after opening it and seeing the things inside, she was stunned.

"This ......" Nuan Nuan frowned, why is her name written on this equity transfer document?

If she didn't figure things out, she probably didn't have to sleep tonight, so Nuan Nuan had no choice but to make a phone call to Jiang Mulan, this cliff was the first time she took the initiative to call Jiang Mulan.

It seemed to be waiting for her phone over there, and it was quickly connected, and Jiang Mulan's voice with a smile came: "Nuan Nuan, I haven't slept yet!" ”

"What do you mean by what you gave me?" Nuan Nuan asked bluntly.

"I took your 10 million earlier in exchange for 5% of the original shares of Changqi Investment Company, and then the money from the dividend at the end of the year gave you to continue to exchange some shares, and now you have 50 million shares worth of shares, and when the company goes public this year, the value of these shares you own will double again. Nuan Nuan, you are now a veritable little rich woman! ”

In two years, 10 million has increased in value to 50 million, a fivefold increase, which is simply pie in the sky, or meat filling!

But......

"Raw shares? Changsaki is your company? Nuan Nuan keenly captured the doubts in Jiang Mulan's words.

"Heh, it's really the person I like." A low chuckle came from the other end of the phone.

Nuan Nuan suddenly felt that the document in her hand was a hot potato, but if this was the original share, she couldn't transfer it casually, and she had to get the consent of other major shareholders, so ...... Sold to other shareholders, will this affect Jiang Mulan's status in the company?

"Does Nuan Nuan want to transfer these shares out of the company again?" Nuan Nuan's momentary silence made Jiang Mulan quickly know what she was thinking.

Nuan Nuan was a little embarrassed by the other party's debunking of her thoughts, and she didn't know how to respond. It was even more silent.

"Nuan Nuan, you don't have to draw a line with me like this, as long as your mind remains the same, I won't force you, and why don't you have to get along with money? You don't have to think you're going to be too happy to do this, just like I'm atoning for the past. ”

"Okay, I'll take this thing, like you said, there's no need to get along with money." Nuan Nuan specially only mentions money. In fact, this is quite hurtful, but she can't and can't give Jiang Mulan the affection she wants, it's better not to give the other party any hope from the beginning, and there will be no disappointment if there is no hope.

There was a moment of silence on the phone, and then it rang softly: "Good night, rest early." ”

"Good night." Nuan Nuan hung up the phone.

After flipping through the documents in her hand, Nuan Nuan went back to the bedroom to sleep.

After class the next day, Nuan Nuan met Jin Ming by coincidence, and Jin Ming asked Zhuang Yan again. Nuan Nuan remembered that she hadn't contacted Zhuang Yan yet, and sent Jin Ming away, and she called Liu Jing.

"Why does the eldest lady have time to call me?" Liu Jing said half-jokingly.

"Is Zhuang Yan busy now?" Nuan Nuan has Zhuang Yan's phone, but Zhuang Yan seems to be filming with a crew recently. So in order not to disturb Zhuang Yan, Nuan Nuan called Liu Da's agent.

"Is there anything important about you? If it's important, I'll ask Zhuang Yan to call you back. ”

"It's not a big deal, you tell Zhuang Yan, her family can't contact her. I found me and asked her to contact the family when she was free, so that they would not think that something had happened to her. ”

"Warm, warm. You didn't give her her new contact number to her so-called family members, did you? Liu Jing's tone suddenly straightened and asked.

"No, what's wrong?" Hearing the word "so-called", Nuan Nuan felt that this was unusual.

"It's all the best things done by some superb people, let Zhuang Yan tell you about it himself in the future."

"Brother Liu, when did you learn to sell guanzi...... as he was talking, seeing Jiang Mulan appear in front of him, Nuan Nuan didn't tease Liu Jing anymore, "Okay, you get busy first, I'll hang up!" ”

"Nuan Nuan, I feel like you're busier than me!" Jiang Mulan smiled and looked at Nuan Nuan.

Nuan Nuan put away her mobile phone, looked back at Jiang Mulan, and said, "This should be said to me, how can you, a big boss, be more free than a student of mine?" Haven't you quit your job as a school lecturer, why do you still have this spare time to run to school every day? ”

"To see you, of course." Jiang Mulan took a sentence half-jokingly and half-seriously.

Nuan Nuan glanced at Jiang Mulan and did not speak.

"Do you want to go to the company to see, anyway, you also own eight percent of the major shareholder, and you will always know where the location of the company is." Jiang Mulan suggested.

Thinking that she was fine, Nuan Nuan agreed.

Got into Jiang Mulan's car and went to Changqi Investment Company, the company's office is in an office building, occupying only one floor, the scale is not large, there are only about 20 people in it, but the company's total assets are not small.

"Mr. Jiang!"

"Mr. Jiang!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Jiang Mulan walked into the office with Nuan Nuan, everyone who saw Jiang Mulan said hello, and a young man in his twenties walked over quickly, came to Jiang Mulan, and said softly: "Mr. Jiang, Ansley is here." ”

"Well," Jiang Mulan nodded, seeing that his assistant was vaguely looking at Nuan Nuan beside him, he introduced directly, "This is the major shareholder of our company next to me." Nuan Nuan, Xu Lin is my most effective assistant, and he helps me deal with some small things in the company. ”

Hearing Jiang Mulan's introduction, Xu Lin's eyes flashed and said, "Miss Shareholder, welcome to you!" ”

Nuan Nuan looked at Xu Lin and smiled slightly, "My surname is Ouyang." ”

Jiang Mulan glanced at Xu Lin, who was looking at Nuan Nuan with strange eyes, and walked towards the innermost office with Nuan Nuan, the door of the president's office was not closed, and when she walked to the door, she saw a man standing in front of a wall looking at the painting.

The man was dressed in a modest suit, his figure was slender and straight, and he was holding a glass of red wine and wore a jeweled ring on his hand, and the blood-red gems lined the skin on his hands even fairer. You can't see the front of the man, but you can guess that this is a handsome man without looking at the front.

Hearing the footsteps, the man turned his head unhurriedly. When he saw Jiang Mulan still bringing a girl in, he squinted slightly, and a light flashed in his eyes.

"Hey, beautiful young lady, I finally got to see a real person!" Ainsley's voice is very magnetic, the kind of voice that a mature man has, and even if he is speaking ordinary words, it gives people the illusion that he is talking about love. Putting on that face with a perfect contour of East and West is simply ...... Seductive sin!

Nuan Nuan has a high resistance to beautiful men, and the men around her are not bad. She was just surprised by what the man said.

And when Jiang Mulan heard Ainsley's fancy words, her face was obviously darkened by three points, this abusive stallion everywhere! If it weren't for the mutual penetration and the honeymoon period of cooperation, he would have driven people out of the city as soon as possible.

"Jiang Shao, don't you want to introduce this lovely beauty to me?" Ainsley raised his wine glass towards Jiang Mulan, with a gentle smile on his lips.

"Ouyang Nuannuan," Jiang Mulan only mentioned Nuan Nuan's name, and then introduced Nuan Nuan. "Nuan Nuan, he's Ansley? Howard, a playboy who grew up on Wall Street! Although it is an introduction, there is a very obvious reminder in it. Remind Nuan Nuan not to be deceived by Ainsley's appearance.

"Oh, no, Jiang Shao, you can't slander my reputation like this in front of beautiful women."

Jiang Mulan squinted at Ainsley. Said disdainfully: "What other reputation do you have?" The whole circle of people knows what kind of person you are, and you can only deceive people who don't know you. Don't make a warm idea, otherwise I won't let you carry out your business in the mainland! ”

Ainsley is very well cultivated. didn't get angry at all about this, but straightened his expression and looked at Nuan Nuan and said: "I never knew that the other major shareholder of Ludao Company would be such a young girl like you, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Well, I have to make a statement, I'm not a playboy, don't be misled by Jiang Shao's words. ”

Nuan Nuan smiled lightly, and said lightly: "You speak Mandarin so well." ”

Two years ago, she heard the name Ainsley at the Zhong family, and at that time it seemed that she had attracted Ainsley's attention because she had bought a few stocks that were not in good shape on the surface but would rise sharply in the future, and she was also traced to the IP address of the Zhong family on the Internet.

I never thought that one day she would meet this person who is very famous in the investment bank, and it seems that they are all major shareholders of Changqi Company.

"My mother is Chinese, and I myself love ancient Chinese culture." Ainsley explained with a smile.

"The company will be officially listed tomorrow, what are you going to do now?" Jiang Mulan interjected and came in, not wanting Ainsley and Nuan Nuan to chat like no one else.

"Well, I'm idle, let's take a look. If I hadn't come, how would I have seen the hero of this sketch? Ainsley said, winking at Nuan Nuan a little playfully.

Nuan Nuan looked at the hanging painting on the wall, walked a few steps closer, didn't pay much attention to it just now, but now she found that the person on the painting was very similar to her, but there was a little less charm. A more artistic name is written in the lower corner of the painting, and after careful identification, it can be seen that it is the three words "Jiang Mulan".

"It's lunchtime, why don't you two join me for dinner?" Ainsley raised his hand and looked at his watch, then invited the two of them.

"If you don't mind eating Sichuan food, I don't care." Jiang Mulan knew that this guy never touched those spicy foods, but she still said something like this, making it clear that she didn't want to have lunch with Ainsley.

Seeing Ainsley's view, Nuan Nuan also said: "I prefer delicious Chinese food to half-cooked Western food." ”

"Oh, what a pity, it looks like I'm going to have to find another beautiful woman to have lunch with." Ainsley said regret, but there was no regret in his expression.

"You can go!" Jiang Mulan was a little dissatisfied with Ainsley, who talked so much nonsense.

Ainsley slowly put down his wine glass and said, "Jiang Shao, you must be humble and polite to a man to be a real gentleman!" ”

"This gentleman is a mask that you gringos have come up to cover up your hypocrisy, okay, don't talk to me, hurry up and get out of the way!"

Ansley shook his head, with a tolerant and helpless expression, he took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Nuan Nuan, and said with a smile: "You are always welcome to come to me." With that, Jiang Mulan walked out of the office in a dashing manner under Jiang Mulan's fierce glare.

Nuan Nuan looked at the gold-plated business card in her hand. Secretly muttered "local tyrant", looked up and saw Jiang Mulan looking at the business card in her hand unhappily, she put the business card into her bag with the same face, and said when she saw Jiang Mulan's face darkened: "Anyway, it's the first such gorgeous business card I received, even if I don't use it, it's better to keep it as a souvenir." ”

"I can give you my business card," Jiang Mulan felt that this was not enough, and then added, "Diamond-encrusted." ”

What a tyrant than a local tyrant! Nuan Nuan pursed the corners of her mouth and said, "What am I doing with this diamond-encrusted business card?" The cost is too high, and it is not cost-effective to sell it. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Are you going to sell Ainsley's business card? Jiang Mulan's expression was strange for a moment, and then the clouds turned clear.

"It should sell for a good price." The corners of Nuan's mouth are raised.

Jiang Mulan chuckled, her mood was extremely happy, looking at Nuan Nuan's beautiful face with a smile, she sighed in her heart, how could she be willing to let go when she was so cute in every aspect? It's a knot that you can't untie for a lifetime.

"Don't rush to sell it yet, if you are short of money one day, take this business card and go to Ainsley to borrow a maximum of $100 million in liquidity. The interest rate is half lower than that of the bank. Jiang Mulan calculated the value of this business card for Nuan Nuan.

Nuan Nuan's eyes widened, and she was amazed by the abundant financial resources behind Ainsley, who was simply a mobile bank!

Although she may not be able to use this business card, it is also a bonus to get to know Ainsley. Warm and happy. When Jiang Mulan invited her to lunch, she readily agreed.

During the meal, Jiang Mulan and Nuan Nuan talked about the fact that the company would hold a celebration banquet after it went public, and invited Nuan Nuan to participate. Of course, she is qualified to attend this banquet.

Although Nuan Nuan doesn't like those banquets, she is bound to participate in more of these types of banquets in the future, so she can only adapt to herself. So he did not refuse Jiang Mulan's invitation.

After lunch, Jiang Mulan sent Nuan Nuan to school, and Nuan Nuan had a professional class in the afternoon.

Two days later, the celebration banquet came as scheduled.

Nuan Nuan put on a classic black and white evening dress, her long hair was all curled up and fixed with two silver hairpins, only a strand of shoulder-length hair was left on her temples, she drew a mature evening makeup, and stepped on high heels with seven-centimeter heels.

Young and young are two nouns that are very close in the literal sense, and both have a lot of room for development, but in fact they give people completely different feelings. "Young" will make people feel alive and motivated, but "young" is equivalent to "unreliable" to some extent.

No matter which line of work you mix, you can't make people feel that they are still young, otherwise many things will not be trusted by others to let you do them, which will undoubtedly reduce a lot of opportunities.

Jiang Mulan's car had already stopped downstairs, Nuan Nuan carried a small bag with ruffles, and walked out of the apartment building, she saw Jiang Mulan leaning on the car door at the same time, the other party also saw her.

Jiang Mulan looked at Nuan Nuan with pleasing eyes, tonight she gave him a feeling that was very different from usual, there was a kind of beauty precipitated by time in the clear beauty, as smooth as beautiful jade, gentle and capable. It's so beautiful that he ...... I can't help myself!

"Her Royal Highness, please get in the car!" Jiang Mulan showed a gentle smile on her face, opened the car door, and made a "please" gesture.

Nuan Nuan's eyes were bright, she nodded her chin in a small arc reservedly, and then couldn't help laughing, and then slightly lifted her skirt and got into the car.

The banquet was held in a star-rated hotel, and the whole hotel was chartered for the night, except for the staff, everyone else had to enter the hotel by invitation. Jiang Mulan, as the organizer, naturally does not need to show the invitation, his face is the most conspicuous pass.

The banquet started on time at seven o'clock in the evening, and the time when the two arrived at six forty, Jiang Mulan took the elevator to the top floor with Nuan Nuan, entered a presidential suite for a temporary rest, and then went down when seven o'clock was almost there. Generally, the guests who are invited to the banquet will enter the banquet half an hour in advance, and the protagonists of the banquet will appear on time and slowly enter the banquet hall under the attention of all the guests, so that the effect of "shining debut" can be revealed.

Approaching seven o'clock, Jiang Mulan and Nuan Nuan went downstairs, and came to the door of the banquet hall at seven o'clock, a doorman opened the door, the hall was quiet, everyone looked at the door, and the two of them appeared under the gaze of everyone.

"Click" "Click" ......

The flashes came on one after another. Nuan Nuan was careless and almost flashed her eyes, the just right smile on her face was almost not maintained, she didn't expect that reporters were invited to the banquet, and no reporter had ever appeared at the banquets she participated in in the past, so she forgot that such a banquet with the company as the organizer would invite some newspaper reporters who were good friends.

Jiang Mulan had a signature smile on her face, taking care of Nuan Nuan's speed and walking forward with Nuan Nuan, while delicately coping with the greetings of the people standing on both sides of the aisle that the crowd had vacated. was about to walk up the innermost steps, seeing that Nuan Nuan hesitated, Jiang Mulan leaned close to Nuan Nuan and whispered: "Follow me to the stage, I will introduce your identity as a shareholder to everyone." So that others will not be misunderstood. ”

Nuan Nuan nodded, lifted the skirt slightly with one hand, and took Jiang Mulan's hand and went on stage together.

"Ladies and gentlemen, good evening, I am Jiang Mulan, the chairman of Changqi Company, and this is Ouyang Nuannuan, the largest shareholder of our company besides me and Ainsley, and the funding of Nuan Nuan and Ainsley is the help I can support the company. It has been two years since Changqi was founded, and in the past two years, ......" Jiang Mulan expressed his feelings.

Nuan Nuan stood beside Jiang Mulan, and she maintained a faint smile on her face. looked at the guests in the audience without a trace, and swept over like this, and saw a lot of familiar faces, not to mention the second ancestors who had a good relationship with Jiang Mulan. She also saw Ning Huanting, but she didn't see Xi Yu, who had always been inseparable from Ning Huanting.

Jiang Mulan stepped down with Nuan Nuan after speaking, and immediately someone came forward to talk to Jiang Mulan, Nuan Nuan didn't like the ambiguous eyes that others looked at her and Jiang Mulan. After saying hello to Jiang Mulan, he walked in the direction of Ning Huanting.

It was only a distance of more than ten meters, but Nuan Nuan walked for several minutes when she walked in front of Ning Huanting. She already had a dozen business cards stuffed into her bag. This made her realize that she should also burn her own business cards, otherwise the next time she participates in such a business event, it will be an embarrassment and loss to exchange business cards with others.

"I can't see that you and Jiang Dashao have such a close relationship." Ning Huanting was holding a goblet in her hand, her eyes slanted up from the corner of her eyes, and her eyes seemed to be a little unhappy.

Nuan Nuan suddenly realized something, and hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, Jiang Mulan and I are just ordinary friends. ”

"Heh, ordinary friend? I've never seen a fiancΓ© go to a party with a regular friend as a female companion! Ning Huanting's red lips hooked up a smile with three points of coldness, and said casually.

Nuan Nuan was stunned, she looked at Ning Huanting's sharp side after losing her closeness, and she didn't react for a while.

Seeing Nuan Nuan's unknown appearance, Ning Huanting squinted, scolded "grass" in a low voice that was not ladylike at all, and was a little irritated to squeeze the feet of the cup, pulled Nuan Nuan into the corner where no one was on the side, and said, "Don't tell me, you don't know what it means to enter the venue with the hand of the banquet host." ”

After Ning Huanting reminded her, Nuan Nuan's eyes widened little by little, and she finally realized how wrong she had done before. But this can't be blamed on her, no one has told her about this thing that other people who often attend banquets know, she was a sparrow in her last life, and she was kept in a cage after becoming a canary, and she became a phoenix in this life because of her background, but it was just a soil phoenix that came out of the mountains, and it was estimated that because of her unfrightening performance at her birthday banquet, the people of the Ouyang family mistakenly thought that she knew more about banquet etiquette, so everyone did not deliberately teach her this aspect.

Nuan Nuan didn't answer Ning Huanting's question, but her expression had already answered for her.

Ning Huanting held her forehead, and silently lit a candle for Ning Suyou, who was far away in the southwest, her daughter-in-law was labeled as someone else's woman because of her ignorant behavior, and she didn't know if Ning Suyou's paralyzed face would collapse after knowing Lu Dao.

Alas, it really broke her heart!

Seeing Nuan Nuan's expression of the sky falling, Ning Huanting's heart softened, how could this little sister-in-law say that she is only eighteen years old this year, and it is normal to not understand the twists and turns, she comforted: "As long as you don't have a heart, you must not go together with Jiang Mulan again, if others mention the relationship between you and Jiang Mulan as if they are joking, you have to behave naturally." Forget it, you just stay with me, so that some people with no eyesight can bother you. ”

"Hmm." Nuan Nuan responded in a low mood. (To be continued......)

PS: Dizziness, lack of sleep, eye strain, ahh
