Chapter 1109 Shengnan 41
A meal takes at most two or three hours. But a trip to the mountain resort can take a whole day and you can't get back.

Seeing Jiang Shengnan staring at him, Jin Jue said insincerely, "Is it inconvenient for Nannan?"

“It’s convenient,” Jiang Shengnan’s voice was almost squeezed out from between her teeth, “How could it not be convenient? When is President Jin available? I’m available anytime.”

Jin Jue glanced at the schedule: "There's no time like the present, let's do it this weekend."

Jin Jue had been gone for quite a while, but Jiang Shengnan was still staring intently at the opposite side, as if she could see something out of it. After a long while, she finally smiled and said, "The villa is also a good place to relax and unwind."

Jin Jue wanted to trick her into going on a date, and she accepted the challenge. However, she didn't say she would go alone; she would invite Xia Ji, Wu You, and He Jia Hui along.

As for what Jin Jue will think at that time, Jiang Shengnan doesn't care.

Since returning to S City, Jiang Shengnan has been eating with Xia Ji and Wu You almost every day. That evening, she suggested going to the resort together on the weekend, and the two girls immediately agreed.

He Jiahui vaguely sensed something was off: "Something's not right. You're usually such a homebody, why are you so eager to go out this weekend? Did President Jin invite you to the resort?"

Jiang Shengnan glanced at He Jiahui: "If only you were this astute in business."

He Jiahui was not ashamed: "He was serious about you?"

"What do you mean, 'really' or 'not really'?" Jiang Shengnan scoffed. "It's just the usual stuff rich men say. Do you really think I'm some naive kid? So, are you going this weekend or not?"

"Go ahead, why wouldn't you go?" He Jiahui suddenly grinned mischievously. "If President Jin tries to bribe me, should I stand firm or go along with it and accept his offer?"

Jiang Shengnan didn't care: "That depends on what price you can negotiate with him. Anyway, I don't know."

"Jiangjiang, I love your attitude!" He Jiahui clapped loudly: "I admire this kind of money-grubbing, ruthless attitude the most."

Jiang Shengnan glared at her: "Me? Money-grubbing? Turning your back on me like that? Is that how I usually am?"

He Jiahui nodded: "Yes."

Jiang Shengnan grabbed her and lifted her up like a little chick: "I'll show you what it means to turn your back on someone today. Get out of here!"

He Jiahui hugged her with a playful smile: "No, Jiangjiang, I was wrong. Tell me, what do you think of him? I'll be able to negotiate a price with President Jin later."

"I have no thoughts," Jiang Shengnan said expressionlessly as he put her down. "We've only met a few times, what thoughts could I possibly have?"

He Jiahui understood: "Okay, then I'll improvise on the spot. Jin Jue, he's a business tycoon in S City..."

Jiang Shengnan ignored her and instead invited Xia Ji and Wu You to eat: "Don't pay any attention to her, she's only interested in money now."

Xu Yuan chuckled as she served food to He Jiahui, while subtly observing Jiang Shengnan. A woman like Jiang Shengnan was someone most men couldn't handle. It wasn't just about wealth and connections; it was about her being willing.

This woman's arrogance is all hidden inside, but what exactly supports her and gives her such arrogance? How can she remain unfazed even when pursued by a well-known business tycoon?

Back at He Jiahui's little home, Xu Yuan asked a question. He Jiahui lazily enjoyed Xu Yuan's shoulder massage: "Jiang Shengnan is a person who is completely unfathomable. She is really mysterious. Being rich is just the least significant of her characteristics. Don't be fooled by the fact that my company is doing well now. Jiang Shengnan has enough money to buy more than ten of my companies."

"The most crucial thing is that she seems to know everything. No one can hide their thoughts from her. Standing in front of her is like being transparent."

"Yan Yu, the one who's on par with Jin Jue, supposedly suffered a huge loss at Jiang Shengnan's hands." He Jiahui grumbled, "It's said that Jiang Shengnan ruined Yan Yu's overseas projects, not only destroying years of planning, but also causing Yan Yu's direct losses, roughly estimated to be over two hundred small goals."

"Although there is no evidence, all suspicions point to Jiang Shengnan."

Xu Yuan paused, "She did something this big? Yan Yu didn't cause her any trouble?"

“He’s too busy taking care of himself,” He Jiahui laughed. “A little to the right. Besides, he has no evidence. Do you think Yan Yu didn’t want to cause her trouble? But she’s still sitting here perfectly fine.”

Xu Yuan thought for a moment: "She really is amazing. What kind of man could stand in front of her without feeling intimidated? Wouldn't he be too afraid to make any mistakes?"

He Jiahui turned to look at him, her almond-shaped eyes slowly narrowing: "What mistake do you want to make?"

“I was just saying this,” Xu Yuan said, hugging her. “I just think Jiang Shengnan is really terrifying.”

“She’s too strong,” He Jiahui rolled over and snuggled into Xu Yuan’s arms. “But she’s very loyal to her friends. She’s been taking care of us for the past few years. If it weren’t for her, I wouldn’t be the CEO He I am today.”

Xu Yuan corrected her: "You are also very capable and have great execution skills. Your current achievements are also due to your own efforts."

He Jiahui hugged him and gave him two kisses: "Our Dr. Xu is the best..."

On Saturday morning, Jin Jue contacted Jiang Shengnan. He had guessed how Jiang Shengnan would respond; at worst, she would bring her group of friends along. Sure enough, after seeing the car following behind his, Jin Jue couldn't help but smile.

He felt that he could still understand Jiang Shengnan. Of course, Jin Jue would be even happier if Jiang Shengnan went to the villa with him alone.

Jiang Shengnan felt a chill run down her spine. Although it was a good thing for a man to be mature and steady, she always felt that her thoughts were being read, which made her feel like she was invisible.

Although she acted the same way in front of Tan You, Tan You didn't want anything from her; she was both a mentor and a friend. But Jin Jue was different. Now he was after her beauty, or perhaps he wanted to explore her abilities, which naturally made Jiang Shengnan somewhat wary of him.

Seeing the smile on his lips, Jiang Shengnan said lightly, "Is it that funny?"

"I'm so happy to see you," Jin Jue said with an unchanged smile. "Have you had breakfast?"

Jiang Shengnan nodded: "I've already eaten. I've been in Singapore for a few months and haven't had a get-together with my friends in a long time. This is a good opportunity to get together with everyone and relax. Mr. Jin, you don't mind if I bring a few more people, do you?"

Even if Jin Jue saw through her intentions, Jiang Shengnan couldn't admit it verbally, so she started to cover it up afterwards.

Jin Jue would never point out Jiang Shengnan's thoughts to her face; it would be best if everyone just understood each other without saying a word.

Therefore, Jin Jue smiled and said, "It's more lively with more people. My friend should thank you. Thank you, Nan Nan, for bringing him a new client."
