Mu Jingping nodded again, "It's really inappropriate to do this..." Then she changed the subject, "However, I think since Uncle Shen and Ting Xi are suspicious of you, you might as well just let them handle it. This will show that you have a clear conscience. , on the other hand, it also proves your loyalty. Power is just a fictitious thing. The brotherhood between you and Uncle Shen is valuable, what do you think?"
"I... this..." Tan Fangshuo did not expect that Mu Ningran would counterattack his army like this, and he didn't know how to answer the question.
If he disagrees with her statement, it is obvious that he is not loyal enough and values power more than the brotherhood with Shen Jiuyan. Isn't this a slap in the face? He just said that he was sincere.
However, if he agrees with her statement, then he has to be willing to be suppressed and seize power by Shen Tingxi. How can he be willing to do this
Mu Jingjing continued: "I think you are getting older. It's time to enjoy a happy life. Why don't you worry about everything and enjoy your old age. You are an old man in the gang. I believe Tingxi will not treat you badly."
Tan Fangshuo was speechless by Mu Jingjing's words. He was so angry that he wanted to explode, but he couldn't say anything. The suffocation made him want to reach out and strangle this woman to death.
He really underestimated her, looking thin and slender, but he didn't expect that she was so thoughtful. Fortunately, the woman Shen Tingxi fell in love with was actually quite powerful.
Tan Fangshuo tried hard to maintain his composure on his face, trying to put on a smile, but found that the corners of his mouth were stiff and unable to form an arc, "You are right, but you can't represent Jiu Ye after all. I'm afraid I can't even leave the gang. I will I’ll consider your suggestion carefully, I have something else to do, so I’ll leave first.”
Mu Jingping stood up and said, "Mr. Tan, walk slowly."
Tan Fangshuo left with a suffocating anger.
Mu Jingping watched Tan Fangshuo's figure disappear at the door. She felt as if she had collapsed. She suddenly collapsed on the sofa and let go of the hand she had been holding tightly. There was a layer of sweat on her palms, and she was pinched with fingernails from being too nervous. Red marks on palms.
Although Tan Fangshuo was smiling throughout the whole process, his bright smile was shrewd and sharp in his eyes. It was a deterrent that had been accumulated over the years. It was impossible to ignore. How could he gain a foothold in the gang without a few brushes
Mu Jingping had never experienced such a situation. She was in a state of tension despite his oppressive gaze, but she kept saying to herself: She can't back down. She wants to be with Ting Xi. There will definitely be many scenes, hold on, I can definitely do it!
At that time, in the study, next to the desk, Shen Jiuyan was sitting on the executive chair, watching the surveillance video of the lobby on the computer, with a slight arc on the corner of his majestic lips.
Ju Qiulan, who was standing aside, looked at Mu Ningran, who was slumped on the sofa with a pale face, smiling from ear to ear. There was surprise and pride in her eyes, "Look how much you scared Ning Ning? But she is still up to par." , although he was nervous, he never showed it, and he handled the matter very well. Look at Lao Tan’s face when he left, it was livid, I felt really relieved."
Shen Jiuyan didn't express any opinion and just turned off the computer.
"Why don't you say anything?" Ju Qiulan frowned and asked Shen Jiuyan, "Are you still not satisfied? I think it's very good. This is her first time, so she will inevitably be nervous. She will definitely get better and better in the future."
Shen Jiuyan was actually satisfied, but felt uneasy and didn't want to say too nice a thing, "We are upstairs, so she can feel at ease, and this is the Shen family, so Lao Tan's temper will be restrained. But not everyone is coming to her door for her to deal with.”
Ju Qiulan felt that Shen Jiuyan was too demanding, but his words were irrefutable.
Shen Jiuyan's brows were filled with worry, "Letting her meet Lao Tan this time is like officially pushing her to everyone's eyes. I wonder if those people in the gang who are ready to make moves and those who were hostile to Xi'er in the past will... Hey... I’m always worried something will happen.”
Ju Qiulan comforted: "Xi'er can hide her for a while, but he can't hide her for the rest of his life. Xi'er has a saying that is right. Instead of hiding, it is better to deal with it head-on. Let her get in touch and adapt in advance so that she will not be at a loss to deal with things when they come."
Shen Jiuyan turned to look at his wife beside him, with a guilty look on his face, "Actually, you still blame me for what happened back then, right?"
Ju Qiulan shook her head, but her eyes darkened when she thought of those days that made her humiliated and frightened, "I know you are doing it for our mother and father. You blame me for not taking responsibility back then. I was bullied, and Xi'er I was forced to go down this path.”
Shen Jiuyan put his big hand on the back of Ju Qiulan's hand, "Xi'er is right, it's because I have no courage that I made you two suffer so much."
Ju Qiulan's eyes were filled with water. They hadn't had such a heart-to-heart relationship for many years. "I will never regret following you."
Shen Jiuyan squeezed Ju Qiulan's hand tightly, "I have nothing else to ask for now, I just hope that our family will be safe."
Ju Qiulan nodded with tears in her eyes, "Yes."
Shen Jiuyan looked out the window with deep eyes, okay? I'm afraid the tree wants to be quiet but the wind won't stop.
In the next few days, Shen Jiuyan sent Shen Tingxi out on a business trip, and then he took Mu Ningjing to the gang to meet those old fritters.
After Mu Jingran and Tan Fangshuo met that day, everyone in the gang knew about Mu Jingran's character, and their background was thoroughly investigated, so detailed that they even knew how many chickens Mu Jingran's grandpa and grandma kept in Hucheng City.
Shen Jiuyan is also an experienced person. When Mu Ningran was exposed, he arranged for people to go to Lake City to secretly protect the safety of the two old people.
Mu Jingjing's performance not only satisfied Shen Jiuyan, but even surprised him. Looking at a gentle and weak woman, he didn't expect that she would not have stage fright at all when facing the old people in the gang.
Neither humble nor arrogant, he doesn't talk much, but everything he says makes sense, making it impossible for anyone to find anything wrong with him.
Sometimes when faced with sarcastic and hostile words, she could respond with a smile, but what she said with a smile made the other person blush with anger, but she was unable to refute.
Just like the last time she confronted Tan Fangshuo, she was reasonable on the surface, but actually pushed people into despair.
Shen Jiuyan felt that he had picked up a precious daughter-in-law. Compared with Ju Qiulan's strong, domineering, openly offending people and leaving people with a reason to talk about, Mu Jingping's ability to bully people quietly made him like him more, because on the surface She is reasonable, and no one else can catch her.
Shen Jiuyan and Mu Jingran went home that day. Unexpectedly, Shen Tingxi came back early. When he came home, he didn't see Mu Jingran waiting at the door. When he saw someone, he quickly pulled Mu Jingran over and protected her like a calf. Behind him, he looked at Shen Jiuyan with an unhappy expression, "Old man, Ning Ning's injury hasn't healed yet. Where did you take her?"
