After her ex-husband became a Hong Kong entertainment circle tycoon, he put his arm around her waist

"I was kicked out of the Nan family back then, and he took me in, so I am very grateful to him. If it weren't for this identity, I wouldn't have been able to give birth to Enen so naturally."

After thinking it over, Nan Shu decided to tell Qi Yuye the truth.

Qi Yuye's heart stirred slightly. Although he was still a little jealous, he felt much better than before.

"Why did you insist on divorcing me back then? If you hadn't divorced me, none of this would have happened."

Qi Yuye looked at Nan Shu with a deep gaze.

Nan Shu avoided Qi Yuye's gaze, her mind replaying the scenes she had witnessed and the discussions she had heard a few years ago.

Nan Shu shook her head, her tone somewhat low.

"It's all in the past, Qi Yuye, I don't want to talk about it."

Seeing Nan Shu's silence, Qi Yuye sighed almost imperceptibly.

He knew that no one could make Nan Shu say what she didn't want to say.

The timely ringing of the phone broke the silence between the two. Nan Shu glanced at the phone on the screen and hung up without hesitation.

Old Madam Chen was really persistent. She had already said that she would help Chen Jingyan take back the company's core assets, but she was still not at ease.

Qi Yuye noticed the fleeting annoyance on Nan Shu's face and immediately guessed who had called.

"I'll be there soon. I'll wait for you outside. If you can't handle it, just call me."

Qi Yuye was a little worried. Some people would do anything for money, and it was really dangerous for Nan Shu, a woman, to go in alone.

Nan Shu smiled and shook her head.

"Don't worry, it's a legitimate company, not some dangerous place. They wouldn't dare do anything to me. I'm just going to negotiate with them."

A dozen minutes later, downstairs at Chen Jingyan's company.

Perhaps because they learned that Chen Jingyan had sold off the company's core assets, some second-tier employees actually blocked the company's entrance with banners.

Nan Shu frowned slightly as she looked at the employees gathered at the entrance.

"I didn't expect things to be this serious. Will Chen Jingyan's sale of the company's core assets affect them?"

Qi Yuye's gaze swept across the faces of the people outside, and he slowly nodded.

"That's right. If the senior management who takes over wants to reduce costs and increase efficiency, their first choice will be to lay off some people who are not so important to the company. This is the most common practice in corporate management changes."

However, for a small company like Chen's, laying off people in the second-tier departments would have a significant impact on the company, which shows that the person who took over the company this time is not very smart either.

"Then I can't go in through the main entrance, I'm afraid some of them will recognize me."

Nan Shu sighed. She had thought this matter wouldn't be too difficult, but she hadn't expected to encounter such a problem right from the start.

Qi Yuye nodded, concealing the worry in his eyes, and gave instructions to the driver.

"Uncle Wang, go straight to the basement."

The car started slowly, and the people holding banners did not notice Qi Yuye's car.

Upon arriving at the underground parking garage, Qi Yuye pulled Nan Shu aside and carefully observed the several entrances.

Only after finding no one blocking the way in the basement did he release Nan Shu's hand.

Be careful in everything you do.

After giving repeated instructions, Qi Yuye personally got out of the car and opened the door for Nan Shu.

Seeing that Qi Yuye was about to follow her inside, Nan Shu quickly reminded him.

"Don't follow me. There are surveillance cameras here, and I'm afraid they'll see you on the cameras, which would ruin our plan."

Having his intentions exposed, Qi Yuye had no choice but to withdraw his hand and cough lightly.

"Then go in. I'll watch you go in from here."

Only after Nan Shu's figure disappeared into the elevator did Qi Yuye turn around and return to his car.

Nan Shu went directly to the floor where Chen Jingyan's company was located.

Perhaps the news of Chen Jingyan selling the company's core assets had already spread, because when Nan Shu entered the company, she noticed that everyone's face was filled with a sense of unease.

Nan Shu adjusted her sunglasses and, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to her, quickly walked to Chen Jingyan's former office.

As soon as I stepped outside the office, I heard an angry voice coming from inside.

"I was wondering why Chen Jingyan was in such a hurry to sell me all these resources. Turns out he knew all along that Shengda Group was planning to back out, so he wanted to leave this mess for me!"

"Contact Chen Jingyan! Tell him to come back and clean up this mess, or I won't let him get away with it!"

Nan Shu paused her raised hand, waited a while, and then knocked on the door.

Hearing the knock on the door, the person inside said irritably.

"Come in!"

A smile appeared on Nan Shu's face as she reached out and pushed open the door in front of her.

The person who came into view looked somewhat familiar, and Nan Shu paused for a moment.

Isn't this Mr. Li? It seems that Madam Chen previously tried to matchmake Chen Jingyan with Mr. Li's daughter, but the methods she used were not very ethical.

Nan Shu never expected that this CEO Li would actually sell the resources that Chen Jingyan had.

I heard that this Mr. Li treats his daughter very well. If he finds out that she is Chen Jingyan’s nominal wife, will it backfire?

The thought suddenly popped into my head, but it was already too late to back out.

Nan Shu could only brace herself and enter the office, enduring President Li's unfriendly gaze.

President Li looked Nan Shu up and down, his tone unfriendly.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Nan Shu took a deep breath and then took off her sunglasses.

"I am Chen Jingyan's wife. I heard that he sold the company's core assets, so I came to take a look."

Upon hearing Nan Shu's words, President Li immediately let out a cold laugh.

"So it was you!"

"What, Mr. Li knows me?"

Nan Shu raised an eyebrow, her tone relaxed, without the slightest hint of fear.

"I heard you and Chen Jingyan are only superficially together. That old woman Chen even said you two are divorced and wanted my daughter to marry him. Humph, thank goodness I didn't give him my daughter, otherwise you would have fooled me!"

"Madam Chen is right, Chen Jingyan and I are indeed only husband and wife in name."

Nan Shu nodded and accepted the matter without hesitation.

"The reason I came here today is to ask you to buy back the company's core assets."

Upon hearing Nan Shu's words, President Li was initially delighted, but then became wary.

"What kind of tricks are you playing?"

First, Chen Jingyan approached him, saying he wanted to sell these things to him. But not long after he took over, Shengda Group terminated all the cooperative projects.

Now Chen Jingyan's wife has come to him again to buy back these assets, and this matter doesn't seem simple at all.

Mr. Li looked Nan Shu up and down, and after a moment of contemplation, he continued to speak.

"I took over this company because I felt sorry for Chen Jingyan. I spent a lot of money to take over the company, so if you want to buy it, you'll have to pay this amount."

President Li stretched out a hand and waved it at Nan Shu.

"Fifty million? Are you crazy?!"

Nan Shu was shocked to see President Li's gesture.
