Chapter 56 An unexpected encounter with Wen Tai, and an out-of-control car
Apart from Chen Xuezong, no one in the company knew that Ning Yao was the chairman of the group.
After Ning Yao arrived at the company, everyone was speculating about who this woman, who was brought in by President Chen to tour the company, was.
The fact that Mr. Chen personally received her indicates that this woman must be someone of considerable importance.
Just then, someone saw Chen Xuezong leading Ning Yao into the chairman's office on the top floor. She quickly typed on the screen and sent the message to the group chat. Everyone immediately started discussing it heatedly in their private groups.
Chen Xuezong took that woman to the chairman's office; this is huge news!
Since the company started operating, the door to the chairman's office on the top floor has always been closed. No one has ever seen the group's chairman appear, and no one knows who this mysterious group chairman is.
Among the company's senior executives, Chen Xuezong is the one with the most influence.
Could it be that the chairman of their group is that woman in the green dress from earlier?
That woman looked to be only in her early twenties, yet she was the chairperson of their multinational corporation?
The brand of her clothes and the bag she was carrying seemed quite unusual. Surely their chairman wouldn't be so poor as to use a roadside stall?
"What do you know? I checked the brand of the clothes this woman is wearing online. They're limited edition French goods, designed by a famous designer. That designer is very well-known in France, and you can't necessarily buy his works even if you have money!" A seasoned buyer who usually likes to study designer clothes and bags explained frantically in the group, afraid that Ning Yao's treasures would be looked down upon by those who lack discernment.
Outside the chairman's office, everyone was in an uproar, but Chen Xuezong and Ning Yao inside were oblivious, taking their seats on the sofa one after the other.
"That's how it is. I don't know if it was Manager Liang's idea or if someone was directing him behind the scenes."
"From now on, we don't need to have any business dealings with this company anymore. As for raw materials, let's find another company to cooperate with."
Ning Yao told Chen Xuezong about how she had been tricked the night before. After listening to the whole story, Chen Xuezong's face gradually darkened.
He never expected that Ning Yao would encounter such danger when she went to negotiate with the responsible person of a legitimate company.
"Don't worry, I'll handle it." Chen Xuezong regretted not protecting Ning Yao well and secretly resolved to arrange more bodyguards around Ning Yao. He would never allow the same thing to happen again.
He couldn't even imagine what crazy things he would do if the other party really did something to Ning Yao.
Even if that person were torn to pieces, it probably wouldn't be enough to quell the slightest bit of his hatred!
"Don't worry, I can protect myself. These kinds of things are rare."
"I'm just wondering, I don't know what I did to offend this Manager Liang that he hates me so much."
He hated her so much that he wanted to hire someone to rape her, and even film the whole process to ruin her reputation and make her unable to live a normal life.
"I will never let him go!" Chen Xuezong's voice was gloomy and cold, and his face was a little pale, clearly because he was angry.
“It’s all in the past. Without evidence, the police can’t file a case. I’ll just be more careful in the future. Don’t do anything reckless. Don’t ruin your future for someone like that. I don’t want you to do anything impulsive again.”
Ning Yao noticed Chen Xuezong's worry, gave him a smile, and then changed the subject.
"By the way, how's the Ning Group doing?"
"Our 'nail' has been successfully driven in, and everything is progressing smoothly."
When Ning Yao heard the name Ning Group, Wen Tingye's cold and stern face flashed through her mind, along with the things he had done to Ning Group.
She was distracted for only a moment, but quickly recovered and said to Chen Xuezong, "Yes, continue to pay attention to the Ning Group's movements."
Leaving the company, Ning Yao looked at the building across the street; on the other side of the street was the Wens Group Building.
They're just the five major families of the Imperial City. Ning Yao will be able to surpass them one by one sooner or later.
Instead of immediately getting into a car and leaving, Ning Yao inexplicably walked to the Wen Group building across the street.
A black luxury car came to a smooth stop downstairs at the Wen Group building. Old Madam Wen and Lian Jiaorui got out of the car one after the other. They had already seen Ning Yao across the street through the car window, but Lian Jiaorui pretended to have just noticed her and deliberately guided Old Madam Wen to look in Ning Yao's direction.
"Auntie, look, that's Ning Yao."
"What a coincidence, how come she's downstairs at Tingye's company building too?"
"How could it be a coincidence? I think she came here specifically to see Tingye!"
Madam Wen had a very bad impression of Ning Yao, and after being hinted at by Lian Jiaorui, her disgust intensified.
Lian Jiaorui took Old Madam Wen's arm, and the two walked up to Ning Yao. Ning Yao was startled by the sudden appearance of the two people. After recognizing that they were Wen Aixiu and Wen Baoying's grandmother, she smiled gently.
"Madam Wen, Miss Lian."
Madam Wen frowned and glanced at Ning Yao, her attitude very cold. She did not respond to Ning Yao's greeting, but instead grabbed Lian Jiaorui's hand beside her and said with a disdainful look, "The Wen family is not a place that wild cats and dogs can just walk into. I advise you to use your mind on the right path and not to fantasize about things that are beyond your reach."
Ning Yao remained silent. She hadn't expected that Old Madam Wen would have such a strong opinion of her, and that her words were full of sarcasm.
If someone else had said those things, Ning Yao probably would have already retaliated and made them regret their rudeness.
But the person who said these things was Wen Tingye's mother, who was also her child's grandmother, so she had no choice but to swallow her anger.
"You've misunderstood. My relationship with Mr. Wen is purely professional, and I'm not here to see him today."
Seeing that Ning Yao wasn't angry at all, but instead replied to the old lady in a calm voice, Lian Jiaorui chuckled and said in agreement, "Since Miss Ning has said so, it must be true. Aunt, let's not misunderstand the relationship between Miss Ning and Tingye. He has to manage the company's affairs every day and is already very busy."
Seeing Lian Jiaorui's magnanimity, Madam Wen showed an appreciative expression.
"You're so sensible. I'll make sure Tingye cherishes you and doesn't let him waste his time on irrelevant people!"
"Auntie, don't worry. My relationship with Tingye is very stable. Tingye is filial and will definitely do as you wish."
The fact that she could win over Old Madam Wen's heart and soul as her daughter-in-law was definitely an advantage for her.
Look at Ning Yao's indifferent tone, how can she talk to her husband's mother like that?
Lian Jiaorui became increasingly smug as she thought about it. She secretly glanced at Ning Yao, raised her chin, and adopted a completely victorious posture.
But she didn't know that Ning Yao had no feelings for Wen Tingye at all. She didn't care which woman was with Wen Tingye. The only thing she was worried about was her two children, Wen Aixiu and Wen Baoying, nothing more.
Ning Yao stared blankly at the departing figures of Lian Jiaorui and Old Madam Wen, then turned away indifferently.
Not far away, an out-of-control car swerved from side to side and crashed violently toward Madam Wen and Lian Jiaorui.
Ning Yao caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of her eye and almost instinctively turned and ran towards the two of them, not even caring that her expensive handbag had fallen off. As she ran, she shouted, "Watch out!"
